"Huh..." He exhaled a long breath, his face showing a trace of exhaustion, but his eyes were extremely bright.
Forced a preliminary alliance with the Silver Dragon King, gained full support from the highest level of the Wuhun Empire, and even planted the seeds of "creating his own divine realm"... All of this cleared many obstacles for his future path.
But Ling Ye knows very well that all blueprints and agreements require strong strength as the cornerstone. Without strength, the so-called promise and future are nothing but castles in the air.
"It's time for me to retreat." Ling Ye clenched his fists, feeling his seventy-fifth level soul power. Compared to the shocking feats he planned, this little bit of strength was far from enough. "The top priority is to master the golden elixir cultivation method to a deeper level as soon as possible, increase the soul power level, and accelerate the integration with the plane center!"
He no longer hesitated, turned around and walked into the room, sat down cross-legged, held his breath and concentrated, and soon entered a deep state of cultivation. In his dantian, the "Golden Pill" opened from the blind box rotated slightly, emitting soft and pure energy, guiding the energy of the outside world to flow into his limbs and bones with far greater efficiency than before, transforming it into pure soul power...
Just as Ling Ye was in retreat, the top brass of the Spirit Empire and the master of the Star Dou Forest were having secret talks that could change the fate of the continent. The storms in the continent had already gathered at the grand pass on the northwest border of the empire—Jiayu Pass!
Jiayuguan Pass guards the natural dangers and is the most important barrier for the coalition forces of the two empires, Tiandou and Xingluo. The wall towers into the clouds, and is made of the hardest granite. Countless defensive soul-guiding runes are engraved on it, and it glows with an icy sheen in the sunlight. Above the pass, the flags of the coalition forces were buzzing. Countless legionnaires wearing standard armor had solemn faces and were ready for battle. The air was filled with a suffocating atmosphere of murder.
Outside the customs, the dark army of the Spirit Empire is like a spreading tide, with no end as far as the eye can see! Flags covered the sky, swords and guns were like forests, and the soaring blood energy mixed with the murderous energy formed a terrifying pressure that was heart-stopping, as if it was going to crush the entire Jiayuguan Pass!
The war is about to break out!
On the side of the Wuhun Empire, the one who sits at the center is not Pope Bibi Dong, but the second enshrinement of the Wuhun Palace, the ninety-eighth-level peak Douluo—Golden Crocodile Douluo!
He was wearing dark golden armor, with his beard and hair spread out, like a dormant ancient crocodile. His cold eyes scanned the coalition forces in Jiayuguan without any fear, only with overwhelming fighting spirit. Behind him, stood several figures with equally terrifying auras:
Three Worshipers, Qingluan Douluo, level ninety-seven, his figure was erratic, like wind and lightning.
Fourth offering, Lion Douluo, level ninety-seven, with a wild aura, like an angry lion.
Five worshippers, Guang Ling Douluo, level ninety-six, holding an ice bow, filled with cold air.
Sixth offering, Qianjun Douluo, level ninety-six, with a dragon-coiling stick lying across in front of him.
Seven Enshrinements, Demon-Conquering Douluo, level ninety-six, standing side by side with Qianjun Douluo, connected in aura.
In addition to the large enshrinement of Qian Daoliu, all the top enshrinements in Wuhun Palace are gathered here! In addition, there are also the Angel Legion, the Holy Dragon Legion, and the Soul Master Legion! There is also a hidden weapon army composed of five thousand soul masters.
In Jiayuguan Pass, the coalition forces are on the side.
There are several figures standing, each of them famous in the mainland!
The leader is a tall and burly man with gnarled muscles. He is holding a huge dark golden Haotian Hammer as big as a water tank in his hand. Just standing there is like an unshakable mountain! It is none other than the sect leader of the Haotian Sect, the ninety-seventh level peerless Douluo of the attack system—Tang Xiao!
Beside him, stood a man with a more wild and domineering aura. He was wearing a torn robe, with messy hair shawl, and a look of vicissitudes and unruliness on his face. The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand seemed heavier than Tang Xiao's, and the blood-red God of Death realm loomed, making the surrounding air become cold and sticky! Haotian Douluo——Tang Hao! Although his level may not be as high as Tang Xiao's, his terrifying aura that has experienced hundreds of battles and fought out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood is even better!
Haotian Sect almost came out in full force this time. In addition to the two brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao, there were also five elders whose cultivation levels were above level ninety-four! The seven Clear Sky Hammer Titled Douluo stood together, and the terrifying sense of oppression was enough to change the color of heaven and earth!
On the other side, dragons roar in formation! The shadow of a huge blue electric Tyrannosaurus Rex hovered into the sky, exuding violent thunder and lightning power. The patriarch of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus family, Yu Yuanzhen, is a ninety-fifth-level attack-type titled Douluo. His beard and hair are spread out, and lightning flashes in his eyes. Behind him are the four remaining elders of the peak Contra clan! Although the number of Titled Douluo is far less than that of the Haotian Sect, no one dares to underestimate the reputation of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Dragon Spirit for its top-notch power attacks!
And representing the top combat power of the two empires, are the two titled Douluo from the Star Luo Empire!
A man wearing white armor, unusually tall, with a resolute face, exuding the terrifying pressure of the king of beasts. He is the ancestor of the Dai family of the royal family of the Star Luo Empire, the ninety-fifth-level White Tiger Douluo—Dai Tianfeng!
The other one is shrouded in a strange black shadow, his aura is erratic, like a ghost. He is the ancestor of the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, the same ninety-fifth level Netherworld Douluo - Zhu Yunqing!
White Tiger and Nether Civet Cat, these two titled Douluo have been partners for many years. Their combined power is by no means as simple as one plus one!
In addition, regarding the Tiandou Empire, although the royal family did not have a titled Douluo to support the formation (Poison Douluo Dugu Bo has not yet arrived), Emperor Xueye almost emptied the treasury and hired more than fifteen Contra-level Keqing elders and dozens of powerful Soul Saints with huge sums of money! The Star Luo Empire also sent more than ten powerful Contra warriors!
On the ground, there is a total of three million elite troops of the Tiandou and Xingluo coalition forces! Swords and guns are like forests, flags are like sea, and the murderous intent soaring into the sky condenses into a substantial blood cloud, covering the entire Jiayuguan Pass!
The lineups of both sides can be called the most luxurious and terrifying collision in Douluo Continent in the past ten thousand years!
"Golden Crocodile! Where is Bibi Dong? Let her come out and answer! Wuhun Palace is going against the grain and trying to unify the mainland. Today, our two empires and the three Shang Sects have joined forces to crush your Jiayu Pass!" Tang Xiao's voice was like a bell, and the words containing majestic soul power rolled across the battlefield like thunder, causing pain in the eardrums of the soldiers on both sides.
Golden Crocodile Douluo let out a disdainful sneer, his voice was like the friction of gold and stone, harsh and domineering: "Tang Xiao, my rabble, are you worthy of His Majesty's presence today? I will let you know what it means to use a mantis as a chariot and bring about your own destruction!"
"Arrogant!" Dai Tianfeng roared, and the white tiger's shadow looked up to the sky and roared, "Xingluo children! Follow me and kill!"
"Tian Dou Empire, attack!" Marshal Ge Long, the commander of Tian Dou, waved his sword and ordered at the same time!
"Haotian Sect, defeat the enemy!" Tang Xiao's giant hammer pointed at the wall!
"Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex, thundering the nine heavens!" Yu Yuanzhen transformed into thunder and soared into the sky!
「Kill!!!」
Three million people roared in unison, and the sound shook the sky! Like a torrent bursting from a dam, or like a raging black tsunami, the coalition forces launched a death-defying charge towards the Spirit Empire army!
The war breaks out instantly!
"Hidden Weapon Legion! Zhuge Divine Crossbow, three shots in a row! The target is the opponent's officers below the Soul Saint!" The commander of the Hidden Weapon Legion ordered at the same time.
Crunch - collapse!
Countless machine sounds rang out, and a rain of black crossbow arrows shot out like a death storm, accurately attacking the command nodes in the coalition formation!
"The seventh soul skill, the true form of the martial spirit!"
"The ninth soul skill..."
The titled Douluo and Soul Douluo experts from both sides collided instantly!
The two brothers Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, like two gods of war, wielding huge Clear Sky Hammers, directly approached Golden Crocodile Douluo! The terrifying hammer shadow tore through the sky, clashing with Golden Crocodile Douluo's overbearing golden crocodile claws, making a deafening roar!
Qingluan Douluo faced off against Yu Yuanzhen who had transformed into thunder. The extreme collision of wind and thunder caused the sky to be torn apart!
The Lion Douluo roared and fought with Dai Tianfeng's white tiger incarnation. The lion and the tiger fought with each other, extremely violent!
Light Ling Douluo fired arrows with arrows, accurately sniping and killing the strong men of the alliance, but he was constantly entangled and disturbed by Zhu Yunqing's ghostly figure!
The two Douluo Panlong sticks, Qianjun and Jiangmo, danced in an airtight manner and stopped the two elders of Haotian Sect!
Other Spirit Hall elders also fought against the titled Douluo and Soul Douluo from the coalition forces. The light of their soul skills shone crazily, explosions came and went, and every collision shook the earth!
The battlefield instantly turned into a huge meat grinder!
Every moment, soldiers were evaporated by the light of soul skills, shot into sieves by hidden weapons, and chopped down by swords... Blood dyed the ground red, broken limbs and broken arms were splashed everywhere, and screams, shouts of death, and explosions were mixed together to form an extremely cruel and bloody symphony of war!
Suddenly, a deafening roar broke the dead silence——
“Golden Crocodile! Take your life!”
Tang Hao fell from the sky like a meteor. The Haotian Hammer as huge as a water tank in his hand had already been swung up. The blood-red God of Death domain instantly expanded, dyeing the surrounding dozens of feet with a terrifying scarlet.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's vertical pupils, like cold-blooded animals, shrank slightly, but he showed no fear, instead bursting out with a fanatical fighting spirit. "Tang Hao! I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The dark golden armor around him shone brightly, and the terrifying soul power of the ninety-eighth peak Douluo exploded like a real substance. Behind him, a huge golden crocodile king looked up to the sky and roared. The sound was so loud that the surrounding soldiers' ears and noses bleed, and they staggered back.
"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Spirit True Body!" Golden Crocodile Douluo roared, and his whole body merged with the golden crocodile king's shadow, turning into a giant crocodile as big as a hill, covered with scales harder than fine steel, and rushed towards Tang Hao.
"Well done!" Tang Hao laughed wildly, his hair flying wildly, and the nine soul rings on his body spinning rapidly - two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red! The hundred-thousand-year-old soul ring, as red as blood, suddenly lit up, and majestic power poured into the Clear Sky Hammer.
"Big Sumeru Hammer!" Tang Hao didn't have any fancy skills, only an explosion of pure and extreme power.
Boom——
The Clear Sky Hammer collided violently with the Golden Crocodile King, and the shock wave generated directly shook dozens of fighting soldiers around into blood mist. The ground cracked, and the cracks spread like spider webs.
Tang Xiao has also arrived at this time. Although the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand is slightly smaller than Tang Hao's, its power is not weak at all. "Brother Hao, let me help you!"
Two of the best martial arts spirits in the world attacked Golden Crocodile Douluo at the same time. Facing the cooperation between the two Haotian Douluo, even if they were stronger than Golden Crocodile Douluo, they had to avoid the edge temporarily. His huge crocodile body swung flexibly, and his long tail swept towards Tang Xiao like a steel whip. At the same time, the crocodile's mouth opened wide, and a golden light beam condensed to the extreme sprayed towards Tang Hao.
"The ninth soul skill, the golden crocodile swallows the sky!"
Tang Hao's pupils shrank and he shouted: "Explode the ring!"
A black soul ring on his body suddenly shattered, turning into pure energy and pouring into his body. At this moment, Tang Hao's momentum suddenly increased, almost breaking through the limit of level ninety-six, reaching a heart-stopping level.
"Another explosion??" Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression suddenly changed.
Another even more terrifying big Sumeru hammer hit, Golden Crocodile Douluo's indestructible Golden Crocodile King's real body was hit with scales flying, and the huge body slid back dozens of feet, plowing two deep ravines on the ground.
"Good! What a Haotian Douluo!" Golden Crocodile Douluo smiled instead of being angry, and the golden light on his body once again flourished, "But you are still far from defeating me with this!"
The aftermath of the battle between the three peak experts continued to expand, and the surrounding area had become a death zone, and no one dared to come even half a step closer.
---
At the same time that the Golden Crocodile was fighting against the Haotian Double Star alone, on the other side, a cyan elegant figure was dealing with two lightning-fast figures, one white and one black.
Qingluan Douluo, the third enshrined in the Wuhun Palace, is the pinnacle Douluo of the ninety-seventh level attack system. At this moment, he did not attack with all his strength, but looked at every attack of his opponent playfully like a cat and a mouse.
"The speed is too slow." Qingluan Douluo turned sideways lightly, avoiding White Tiger Douluo Dai Tianfeng's sharp claws that could tear steel.
Dai Tianfeng roared angrily, and the seventh soul ring on his body lit up: "The seventh soul skill, the true form of the white tiger!" He transformed into a majestic and huge white tiger, his speed and strength increased instantly, and he pounced on Qingluan Douluo again.
At the same time, a black shadow appeared behind Qingluan Douluo like a ghost, and Zhu Yunqing's ghost civet body quietly stretched out its sharp claws and struck at the vital point in the back.
"It's a bit interesting." Qingluan Douluo chuckled, and a pair of gorgeous green wings suddenly spread out from his back - the third soul skill, Qingluan Wings!
With a slight shake, he appeared ten feet away as if teleporting, causing the two men's pincer attack to fail again.
"Netherworld Douluo, your stealth skills are good, but in the face of absolute speed, it is meaningless." Qingluan Douluo commented condescendingly, the contempt in his tone made the two Xingluo Douluo furious.
Dai Tianfeng and Zhu Yunqing looked at each other and nodded in agreement. After working together for decades, they already have a common understanding.
“Martial soul fusion skill—Netherworld White Tiger!” The two of them shouted at the same time.
The two rays of light, white and black, intertwined and merged, turning into a giant tiger that was as big as a hill, half white and half black, with two wings on its back! This is a fusion technique passed down from generation to generation by the royal family of the Star Luo Empire and the Zhu family, and it is powerful enough to challenge the level!
The Netherworld White Tiger looked up to the sky and roared, the sound causing the entire battlefield to fall into silence. The next moment, its huge wings flapped, and it pounced on Qingluan Douluo at a speed far faster than before.
"This is true." Qingluan Douluo's eyes finally showed a trace of seriousness, and the seventh soul ring on his body lit up: "The seventh soul skill, Qingluan's true form!"
A gorgeous blue giant bird appeared in the sky, fighting with the Netherworld White Tiger. Every collision caused a deafening roar, and the soul power fluctuations spread like ripples.
Although Qingluan Douluo's soul power is as high as level ninety-seven, it is difficult to win against the long-established martial soul fusion skills of the Star Luo Empire. The three parties fell into a stalemate and the fighting became increasingly fierce.
… …
On the east side of the battlefield, the wild momentum of the Four Enshrined Lion Douluo oppressed everything around him like a substance. His opponent is the leader of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus family and a level 95 attack-type titled Douluo—Yu Yuanzhen!
"Yu Yuanzhen! I heard that you are the strongest beast spirit? Let me see today, which one is stronger, your blue electric tyrannosaur or my flaming lion!" Lion Douluo's voice was like a bell, with a wild fighting spirit.
Yu Yuanzhen's face was solemn, and blue lightning flashed around his body: "Lion Douluo, you have gone too far in the Spirit Hall to deceive others, and I will make you pay the price today!"
"The seventh soul skill, the true form of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus!" Yu Yuanzhen transformed into a huge Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus, surrounded by violent blue thunder and lightning. Wherever he passed, the ground was scorched black.
Lion Douluo laughed loudly: "Well done! The seventh soul skill, the true form of the lion!"
A giant male lion whose whole body was burning with flames faced the blue electric Tyrannosaurus Rex. The two violent energies of fire and thunder collided violently, causing continuous explosions.
Boom! boom! boom!
Every claw strike and bite carries destructive power. The fire tries to devour the thunder and lightning, and the thunder and lightning tries to tear the fire apart.
"The eighth soul skill, Thunder Dragon Roaring to Break the Sky!" The blue electric Tyrannosaurus rex transformed by Yu Yuanzhen opened its mouth and spat out a lightning beam with a diameter of about ten feet, ionizing the air wherever it passed, emitting a pungent smell of ozone.
The Lion Douluo did not dare to neglect, and the eighth soul ring lit up at the same time: "The eighth soul skill, the Lion King's Sky Burning Strike!"
The Flame Lion also opened its mouth, spitting out white flames that were condensed to the extreme, and struck together with the lightning beam.
——
Thunder and fire collided and annihilated each other. The energy storm produced directly flew away hundreds of soldiers fighting around them, and screams could be heard endlessly.
Yu Yuanzhen was shocked inside. Although he expected that Lion Douluo was powerful, he did not expect that the other party's soul power was so profound, and his control over flames was even more exquisite. The Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Dragon Spirit was slightly better in quality, but Lion Douluo's level 97 spirit power cultivation made up for this gap.
"Old Dragon King, is this all you have?" Lion Douluo laughed wildly, and his attack became more fierce, "It seems that the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus is nothing more than that!" Sheng: "Arrogant! Let me show you the true power of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus!"
The ninth soul ring lights up - it is Yu Yuan's unique skill of crushing the bottom of the box. Once it is used, its own vitality will be severely damaged. But he couldn't care less at the moment.
---
At the other end of the battlefield, the battle between the three ministers Qianjun, Jiangmo, and Guangling and the five elders of the Haotian Sect also entered a fierce battle.
Brothers Qianjun Douluo and Demon-Conquering Douluo had the same mind, and their Coiling Dragon Staff skills worked perfectly together, and they actually temporarily blocked the fierce attack of the three Haotian Sect elders.
barrier!」
The two of them were back to back, dancing the dragon stick, forming an airtight defensive circle. Although the Clear Sky Hammer of the elders of the Clear Sky Sect was powerful and heavy, it was difficult to break through for a while.
An elder of the Clear Sky Sect shouted angrily, and the eighth soul ring lit up: "The eighth soul skill, Zhenyue Bang!" The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand suddenly became several times larger, and it hit Qianjun Douluo with the force of Mount Tai.
Qianjun Douluo's expression remained unchanged, and his eighth spirit ring lit up at the same time: "The eighth soul skill, a critical strike!"
The light on the Coiling Dragon Staff shone brightly, and it was accurately positioned at the weakest point of the Clear Sky Hammer, deftly resolving this terrifying blow. But the powerful impact still made him take a few steps back, his mouth numb.
"What a Clear Sky Hammer!" Qianjun Douluo was secretly shocked.
On the other side, Light Ling Douluo relied on his ghostly speed and extremely cold ice arrows to deal with the other two elders of the Haotian Sect.
"The sixth soul skill, Ice Feather Shower!" Light Feather Douluo jumped into the air, and countless ice crystal feathers appeared behind him, shooting at the two elders like a heavy rain.
An elder snorted coldly, and the Clear Sky Hammer danced like an airtight weapon, blocking all the ice arrows. Another elder took the opportunity to rush in and activated his fifth soul skill: "Breaking through the air!"
The Clear Sky Hammer flew out of his hand, spinning and hitting Light Ling Douluo. The speed was so fast that it caused a harsh sonic boom.
Guang Ling Douluo's pupils shrank, and his seventh soul skill was activated instantly: "The seventh soul skill, Guang Ling's True Body!"
He transformed into a huge ice-crystal feathered bird and narrowly avoided the fatal blow, but several pieces of ice-crystal feathers were still scratched by the Haotian Hammer and shattered.
…
Just as the top experts were fighting fiercely, the legion war below also entered its most brutal stage.
The spirit master legions of the Spirit Empire relied on their powerful hidden weapons and well-trained cooperation to repel the charges of the coalition forces time and time again.
However, after all, the coalition forces had the numerical advantage, and the elite troops of Tiandou and Xingluo came one after another, constantly attacking the Spirit Empire's defense line like a tide.
"For Tiandou! For the empire!" Marshal Ge Long personally led the charge, and the sword in his hand was already stained with blood.
"You sons of Xingluo, let these lackeys of Wuhun Palace see our bloody nature!"
The coalition soldiers seemed to be on fire, and their offensive became more and more frenzied.
…
The other side.
The battle between the brothers Jin Crocodile and Tang Hao is coming to an end.
I saw that Golden Crocodile Douluo's huge golden crocodile king's real body was already full of cracks, the dark golden scales were shattered and spattered, and blood gurgled out from many wounds like a stream, dyeing the ground beneath him a shocking dark red. He was breathing heavily, and every breath was laced with blood foam. His vertical eyes, which had always been cold and fierce, were now covered with a layer of exhaustion and horror that was hard to conceal.
Opposite, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao stood side by side. Tang Hao was also covered in wounds. The backlash caused by the explosion made his face pale as paper, and the arm holding the hammer trembled slightly, but his eyes were still burning with wild fighting spirit, like a trapped beast that would never surrender. Tang Xiao's condition was slightly better, but his soul power consumption was also extremely huge, his chest was heaving violently, and the light of the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand was no longer as blazing as it was at the beginning.
"Golden Crocodile! You are defeated!" Tang Hao's voice was hoarse, but it carried the declaration of a winner. He and Tang Xiao approached step by step, gathering their last strength and preparing to give the second priest of the Spirit Hall a fatal blow.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes flashed with a trace of unwillingness and despair. Could it be that I am going to die here today?
