Chapter 471 Tang 3 ascends to the God Realm ahead of schedule?
But he had barely finished speaking.
Dugu Bo suddenly turned around, his vertical pupils fixed on the direction where Xu Xuance was.
Xu Xuance felt a chill run down his spine.
The next moment, a thin, needle-like streak of dark green poisonous light pierced through the night and headed straight for him.
It wasn't a large-scale azure phosphorescence.
Instead, it was Dugu Bo's most compressed and deadly poison attack.
Xu Xuance immediately retreated, while simultaneously erecting seven layers of soul-guiding shields in front of him.
laugh!
laugh!
laugh!
The poisonous light corroded three layers of the protective shield in succession, and the fourth layer was also stained dark green. Xu Xuance's expression changed slightly, and he had no choice but to forcibly interrupt the pursuit command and personally mobilize the purification core to suppress the toxins.
Because of this delay, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and reinforcements had already broken through the blockade.
Outside the White Stone Hills, the night wind blows against your face.
The group finally fought their way out of the valley.
But the soul-guided artillery fire continued to pursue them from behind.
Niu Gao turned around and roared:
"Last gear!"
"The eighth soul skill, Mountain Yutian!"
The phantom of the mountain rose again.
Boom boom boom boom!
The final round of soul-guided artillery fire slammed into the mountain armor shadow.
Niu Gao was blasted away and crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out blood.
Yang Wudi grabbed his shoulder and pulled him up.
"Old rhinoceros, are you dead or not?"
Niu Gao coughed up blood and cursed:
"Even if you die, I won't!"
Yang Wudi snorted coldly.
"Just keep your mouth shut."
The group retreated quickly.
The Sun and Moon Empire's pursuit artillery fire finally ceased when they were thirty miles away from the White Stone Hills.
Because if we go any further, we will be close to the poison zone directly in front of Dugu Bo and the patrol area of the Allied forces.
Xu Xuance did not pursue the matter further.
He stood on the broken mountain ridge, watching the people evacuating in the distance, his face extremely gloomy.
The Soul Guiding Array on the North Road of White Stone Hills was completely destroyed.
All three visible Soul Guidance Towers were destroyed.
The hidden sealing array has been broken.
The Dark Red Mental Shock Cannon was pierced and destroyed by Yang Wudi.
Most of the energy storage crystals were lost.
Dozens of transport vehicles were destroyed.
The plan to launch an attack on the northern flank within three days completely failed.
Although he severely injured Sword Bone Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, Niu Gao and others, and killed many of the Seven Treasures elites, he failed to leave behind any true core figures.
Strategically speaking, the Sun Moon Empire has suffered a loss this time.
Xu Xuance remained silent for a long time before finally saying in a cold voice:
"Gather the remnants."
"The plan to establish artillery positions on the northern route is temporarily suspended."
"Send a message to Linhai Port."
"The Heavenly Dou Star Luo Alliance is more difficult to deal with than expected."
……
Allied forces camp.
As the first rays of gray appeared on the horizon, the group finally returned to camp.
Ning Rongrong was already waiting at the camp gate.
Seeing Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo covered in blood, her eyes instantly reddened.
But she didn't cry.
She immediately summoned the Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda.
"Nine treasures transform into crystal!"
"Thirdly: The Soul!"
The fourth is: Imperial Guard!
"Sixth: Increase!"
Nine-colored light fell upon the group, stabilizing their injuries.
Ye Lingling also rushed over immediately.
The Nine-Heart Begonia bloomed, and soft white light fell upon the seriously injured.
Niu Gao was still cursing when he was carried into the camp.
"Damn it, these soul-guided cannons from the Sun Moon Empire are even more annoying than those iron-shelled bastards from the Elephant Armor Sect!"
Yang Wudi said coldly:
"Aren't you known as the Royal Clan for having the best defense in the world?"
Niu Gao glared at him.
"If you're so good, then you go and do it!"
Yang Wudi said calmly:
"I'll be in charge of poking the cannon."
Niu Gao was so angry he almost vomited blood again.
Dugu Bo walked at the back, his face also somewhat pale.
Continuously manipulating the poisonous area and releasing the Azure Phosphorous Divine Light to suppress the Soul Guidance Array also took a toll on him.
But when he looked at Ning Fengzhi, he still snorted coldly.
"This is the night raid you were talking about?"
"It almost turned into a funeral."
Ning Fengzhi sat in front of the tent, his face pale, but a smile appeared on his lips.
"At least, the mission is accomplished."
Dugu Bo said coldly:
"If you act this crazy again, don't expect me to save you."
Ning Fengzhi looked at him and said:
"Hasn't Senior Dugu already saved him?"
Dugu Bo choked.
He then snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you."
Sword Douluo sat down leaning against the Seven Kill Sword, his white clothes stained with blood, his aura weak, yet his expression remained calm.
Bone Douluo lay to one side, his right arm charred black, his face deathly pale, yet he still managed a smile:
"Old Swordsman, does this count as a victory for us?"
Sword Douluo said calmly:
"The tower was destroyed, but the people returned; that's a victory."
Bone Douluo grinned:
"That's fine then."
Ning Rongrong stood to the side, and finally couldn't hold back her tears.
Upon seeing this, Bone Douluo immediately said:
"Hey, hey, Rongrong, don't cry."
"Your grandfather is still alive."
Sword Douluo also said in a gentle voice:
"We're fine."
Ning Fengzhi looked at his daughter and said softly:
"Rongrong, pass on the order."
"Seven Treasures disciples who fall in battle will be recorded as meritorious."
"Those who are seriously injured should be given priority for treatment."
"All those who participated in the night raid are meritorious officials of the sect."
Ning Rongrong forcefully wiped away her tears.
"Yes."
Soon after, news of the battle at White Rock Hills spread throughout the Allied camp.
The North Route Soul-Guided Artillery Array was destroyed.
The Sun and Moon Empire's three-pronged offensive plan was forced to be postponed.
The morale of the allied forces was greatly boosted.
Prince Xingluo personally came to the Qibao Camp and paid his respects to Ning Fengzhi.
The generals of Tiandou also came to offer their condolences.
Everyone knew that if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School hadn't launched a desperate night raid, the allied forces would have faced a pincer attack from three sides with soul-guided artillery three days later.
This night raid disrupted the rhythm of the Sun Moon Empire.
This also bought precious time for Tang Chuan's return and for the Allied forces to redeploy their defenses.
But this victory was stained with blood.
Of the three hundred elite troops of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, fewer than two hundred and forty returned.
Many members of the Yu clan were seriously injured.
Niu Gao's internal organs were almost ruptured by the Soul Guidance Cannon. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were also seriously injured. Ning Feng's soul power was overdrawn, and he would be unable to support the army alone for a short period of time.
But they eventually came back.
The White Stone Hills have been reduced to ruins by fire.
The northern offensive of the Sun Moon Empire was abruptly cut off.
The main base of the Sun and Moon Empire on the western coast of the sea.
Night had not yet fallen, but the sky was already tinged with gray. The sea breeze, carrying the smell of burning, blew across the harbor, causing the black and gold battle flags, adorned with overlapping suns and moons, to flutter. However, compared to the overwhelming force of the army's landing a few days earlier, the harbor now appeared exceptionally disheveled.
Several sections of the soul-guided cannon array outside the port have not yet been repaired, and several gun emplacements have been cleaved open by sword energy, with black smoke still billowing from the metal debris.
North of the camp, in the direction of the White Stone Hills, the fire was still burning.
That mountain range was originally the most crucial link in the Sun Moon Empire's three-pronged offensive. Once the northern artillery formation was complete, it would be able to suppress the Tian Dou Xing Luo allied army camp from a high vantage point.
But now, all three Soul Guidance Towers have been destroyed.
The hidden sealing array has been broken.
The mental shock cannon was shattered by Yang Wudi's spear.
A large number of energy storage crystals, soul-guided vehicles, and soul-guided cannons were reduced to scrap metal.
The northern offensive was completely paralyzed.
Xu Xuance stood atop the tallest soul guidance tower in Linhai Port, his face grim.
He has issued more than a dozen military orders in succession.
Gather the remaining troops.
Blockade report.
Repair the frontal artillery positions.
The dissemination of the news that "the night raid on Qibao was successful" is strictly prohibited within the military.
However, the losses on the battlefield cannot be covered up by a few military orders.
Especially when the defeated soldiers from the direction of White Stone Hills dragged their tattered Soul Guidance Armor back to the main camp, the morale of the entire Sun and Moon Expeditionary Force was clearly shaken.
The titled Douluo in Douluo Continent are more difficult to kill than they imagined.
The sects in Douluo Continent are even more willing to fight to the death than they imagined.
Originally, in the eyes of many Sun Moon Soul Masters, Douluo Continent was just an old continent with outdated soul tools and still relied on warhorses and cold weapons for combat.
But now, Poison Douluo seals off the territory with his poison, Sword Bone Douluo cuts through the Soul Guidance Tower at night, Soul Breaker Douluo pierces the Mental Shock Cannon with a single spear thrust, and the Yu Clan withstands the Soul Guidance Cannon fire head-on.
These events have made the Sun Moon Empire's expeditionary force truly realize that they are not facing a backward and barbaric land, but an ancient continent with top-tier experts.
Just then, a chilling wave suddenly emanated from the sky above the harbor.
The sea breeze has stopped.
The soul-guiding lamp flickered erratically.
The soul cores on the chests of all the soul masters in the camp seemed to be suppressed by some kind of cold force, and their light suddenly dimmed.
Xu Xuance suddenly looked up.
Above the camp, a dark green crack slowly tore open.
The deathly aura of Rakshasa poured out from the crack.
Immediately afterwards, a figure stepped out from the crack.
Tang San.
He is back.
Compared to when he first escaped from the Star Dou Great Forest back to the Sun Moon Empire, his injuries had recovered considerably. The shattered Rakshasa Divine Armor was once again covering his body, and the Evil Emperor Mark in his right eye lit up again. However, deep in his chest, there were still faint traces of the Nine-Colored Element, which were wounds left by the Silver Dragon King and could not be completely erased by devouring a few batches of souls.
Tang San looked down at the Linhai Port camp. When he saw the shattered soul-guided cannon array, the wreckage scattered on the ground, and the lingering flames in the direction of the northern white stone hills, his face instantly turned extremely gloomy.
"waste."
Two words were slowly uttered from his mouth.
The sound wasn't loud, but it swept across the entire camp like a cold knife.
Countless Sun and Moon Soul Masters lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.
Xu Xuance descended from the Soul Guidance Tower and knelt on one knee.
"Lord Tang."
Tang San flashed and appeared in front of him.
"What happened?"
Xu Xuance said in a low voice:
"The Heavenly Star Luo Allied Forces dispatched the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to launch a night attack on White Stone Hills."
"Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Ning Fengzhi personally took action, followed by Poison Douluo, Soul Breaking Douluo, and the patriarch of the Yu clan."
"Our northern route guidance array has been destroyed, making it impossible to launch a three-pronged encirclement within three days."
A glint of light flashed in Tang San's eyes.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"
"Ning Fengzhi?"
"Dust Heart, Ancient Banyan Tree?"
His expression grew increasingly grim.
These people should have died in the flames of war on Douluo Continent long ago.
But because of Tang Chuan, they all survived.
Now it can even turn around and sabotage his plans.
Tang San slowly raised his hand.
The faces of the soul masters behind Xu Xuance turned pale instantly. They thought Tang San was going to devour souls again. Xu Xuance also felt a cold divine power fall on him, as if his soul was being held back by a scythe.
But in the end, Tang San did not make a move immediately.
Because he knew that Xu Xuance was still useful.
The Soul Guidance Legion of the Sun Moon Empire still needs someone to command it.
If Xu Xuance, a level nine soul master, were to be consumed, it would certainly help heal some of his soul injuries, but the loss of the expeditionary commander would be irreplaceable in the short term.
Tang Sanqiang suppressed his anger and said coldly:
"I gave you a chance, but you couldn't even take down a single allied camp."
Xu Xuance lowered his head and said:
"Lord Tang, the strength of the experts in Douluo Continent far exceeds our expectations."
"Especially the poison of the Poison Douluo, which is extremely effective against the Soul Guidance Army Formation."
"The Sword Bone Douluo, combined with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, is enough to tear apart the soul guidance array in a short time. To continue advancing, we need more heavy soul guidance devices, purification cores, spatial sealing arrays, and..."
He paused.
Tang San said coldly:
"And what?"
Xu Xuance said in a deep voice:
"And a more stable rear."
These words instantly froze the atmosphere in the camp.
Tang San understood perfectly well; things were in chaos in Mingdu. In his efforts to recover from his injuries, he had been killing and devouring souls everywhere, causing panic and demoralization within the Sun Moon Empire.
The army feared being sacrificed.
The Soul Master fears being devoured by souls.
The common people feared that the royal family was colluding with evil gods.
With the rear unstable, the front lines will naturally find it difficult to continue the great battle.
A flash of killing intent appeared in Tang San's eyes.
Are you accusing me?
Xu Xuance lowered his head and said:
"Your subordinate dares not."
Tang San stared at him for a long time, then suddenly smiled.
"You people are all the same."
"They want to use my power to invade the Douluo Continent and seize land, resources, soul beasts, and martial souls."
"But when I need some healing for my soul, you all start to be afraid."
"They want the benefits, but they're afraid of paying the price."
"There's no such thing as a free lunch."
Xu Xuance remained silent.
Tang San looked towards the White Stone Hills to the north, and then towards the direction of the Tian Dou Xing Luo Allied Forces in the distance.
His face was ashen.
He was naturally furious.
But beyond the anger, there was also a growing sense of apprehension.
Silver Dragon King.
Tang Chuan.
A thousand feet of snow.
Emperor Tian.
If these people continue to join forces, it won't be so easy for him to sweep across the Douluo Continent. Especially the attack from the Silver Dragon King, which made Tang San truly realize that even if he became the Rakshasa God, he was not invincible. The Silver Dragon King, still seriously injured, was able to make him flee in a sorry state.
Tang Chuan has now become the Sea God and has a very deep relationship with the Star Dou Great Forest.
Qian Renxue is also an angel god. If he continues to stay in the lower realm, he can certainly devour souls to recover and also command the Sun Moon Empire to continue the war.
But the risk is too great.
If Tang Chuan, Qian Renxue, Di Tian, and the Silver Dragon King join forces again, he might not be able to escape.
Since I can't defeat them head-on for the time being, I'll try a different approach.
A chilling glint suddenly flashed in Tang San's eyes.
Spirit world.
He thought of the divine realm.
He recalled the divine thoughts left behind by the previous Rakshasa God when he inherited the position of Rakshasa God.
The Dragon God was cleaved in two by the Asura God.
The Golden Dragon King was sealed in the realm of gods.
The Silver Dragon King escaped severely injured and his whereabouts are unknown.
The entire divine realm is searching for the Silver Dragon King.
Now, he knows where the Silver Dragon King is.
Starry Sky Forest.
More importantly, Tang Chuan has a very deep relationship with the Star Dou Great Forest.
He not only allied with the ferocious beasts like Di Tian, but also concealed the aura of the Silver Dragon King.
What is this?
This is protecting a criminal from the divine realm.
This is a case of a new god from the lower realm colluding with a soul beast.
This is a betrayal of the divine order.
The more Tang San thought about it, the more chilling the smile in his eyes became.
"Tang Chuan."
"Don't you like soul-saving beasts?"
"Don't you like teaming up with Di Tian?"
"Didn't you want to protect the Star Dou Great Forest?"
"Then I will have the gods judge you themselves."
"If I can't kill you, someone else will."
Xu Xuance noticed the change in Tang San's aura and whispered:
"Lord Tang?"
Tang San ignored him.
He slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky.
The originally gloomy sky was suddenly torn apart by the dark green power of the Rakshasa.
An irreplaceable force descended from the heavens.
That is the power of divine ascension.
Under normal circumstances, Tang San would not want to ascend now.
Once he ascends to the realm of gods, he will no longer be able to stay in the mortal realm at will, nor will he be able to personally control the army of the Sun and Moon Empire, nor will he be able to devour the souls of mortals at will.
But at this moment, he had changed his mind.
He doesn't need to stay in the lower realm himself.
If news of the Silver Dragon King reaches the God Realm, confirming Tang Chuan's crime of colluding with soul beasts, it will be enough to plunge Tang Chuan into even greater trouble. At that time, the God Realm's hunters, law enforcement gods, and even the five great god kings will all turn their attention to Douluo Continent.
No matter how strong Tang Chuan is, he has only just become the Sea God.
He can stop the Sun and Moon Empire.
It can block the Rakshasa god.
Could it possibly block the entire realm of gods?
Tang San's face twisted into a smile.
"Xu Xuance".
Xu Xuance immediately lowered his head.
"Your subordinate is here."
Tang San said calmly:
"Continue to defend the coastal port."
"If the northern artillery position is destroyed, rebuild it."
"If we can't break through them head-on, then we'll hold them off."
"I am going to a place."
Xu Xuance was startled.
"Is Lord Tang leaving?"
Tang San gave him a cold look.
"What, you want to control me?"
Xu Xuance immediately lowered his head.
"Your subordinate dares not."
Tang Sandao:
"Tell Xu Jingyuan that if the Sun Moon Empire dares to waver, the first thing I will do when I return is to destroy Mingdu. Until I return, you only need to hold off the Douluo Continent Allied Forces."
"Don't rush into a decisive battle."
"Don't retreat easily either."
"I want Tang Chuan to believe that I am still in the lower realm."
Xu Xuance's heart stirred slightly when he heard the word "come back".
He didn't know where Tang San was going.
But he knew that Tang San wasn't simply leaving.
The divine force descending from the heavens was beyond the comprehension of lower-realm soul masters.
Tang San is about to ascend to immortality.
We must leave Douluo Continent.
Xu Xuance said in a low voice:
"Your subordinate obeys."
Tang San ignored him.
He stepped into the void.
The Rakshasa Demon Scythe appeared in his palm, and a dark green divine light shot into the sky.
In the sky, a huge crack was torn open in the clouds.
Beyond the crack lay not darkness, but a ghostly green divine path leading to the realm of the gods. On either side of the path, countless vengeful spirits knelt and wailed, as if welcoming the return of their master.
The entire Linhai Port camp was forced to kneel on the ground by this divine power.
Countless Sun and Moon Soul Masters looked up in horror, watching that figure rise step by step into the sky.
Tang San glanced back at the direction of Douluo Continent.
His eyes were filled with resentment and malice.
"Tang Chuan."
"Just wait and see."
"This time, I'll see how you explain this to the divine realm."
As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a stream of dark green light and rushed into the divine path.
boom--!
The crack in the sky closed.
The deathly aura of the Rakshasa dissipated rapidly.
Night has returned to the port area.
But everyone knows that from this moment on, Tang San is no longer on Douluo Continent.
He ascended to the realm of gods. (End of Chapter)
