However, it was just such a blow that instantly destroyed the ninth-level soul guide shield that was said to be able to withstand the attacks of Titled Douluo.

"Am I dead?" Orange thought blankly.

Faced with this force that she was completely unable to resist, she suddenly felt so small and so powerless.

However, she soon realized that she was not dead.

Because there was a strong arm wrapped around her waist, and the warmth from that arm was so real and so reassuring.

I turned my head subconsciously and saw a cold but confident face.

Juzi felt dizzy. The Crown Prince, who was originally in front of her, had appeared behind her without her knowing.

His warm and strong arms wrapped around her waist, giving her a sense of support in her panic.

"Your Highness..." Orange wanted to say something with a trembling voice, but was stunned by the scene before him.

The once magnificent imperial study had now turned into a ruin. Shocking blood-red magma was flowing on the ground, bubbling continuously and emitting a disgusting smell of sulfur.

The bookshelves that once held precious books and antiques had now turned into charred fragments, scattered in the lava.

Xu Tianran's face was terribly gloomy. Although this sudden attack was within his expectations, it was far beyond his imagination.

He originally thought that with his status and position, as well as the strict guard of the palace, the enemy could only send some soul masters below the eighth ring to launch a tentative attack.

However, the sudden launch of the Blood Moon Eclipse completely disrupted his plan.

The terrifying energy fluctuations made even him feel a little palpitated.

He knew that among the enemies this time, there must be a Titled Douluo-level warrior!
"Damn it!" Xu Tianran cursed in a low voice while gritting his teeth.

At this moment, above his head, a bowl-shaped soul guide was suspended, emitting a faint golden light, enveloping him and Orange.

This soul guide is dark gold in color and is only the size of an ordinary rice bowl. It looks inconspicuous, but the aura it exudes gives people an extremely heavy feeling.

Looking closely, one can see that the bowl is engraved with dense and complex patterns, twinkling with starlight, as if countless stars are rotating in it.

A layer of golden light shield gushed out from the mouth of the bowl, protecting Xu Tianran and Orange firmly inside.

The red-gold light that Orange had seen before was formed by the light of the Blood Moon Eclipse intertwined with this layer of golden light shield.

This soul guide device is none other than the ninth-level pinnacle defensive soul guide device—the Xingluo Tiangang Cover!

Ever since he was seriously injured in the last attack, Xu Tianran has paid special attention to his own safety.

He had spent a huge amount of money to obtain this Starry Sky Cover from a ninth-level soul engineer. It was his last life-saving trump card.

At this moment, the Xingluo Tiangang Cover was fully opened, resisting all attacks from the outside world.

In the sky, the blood-red light gradually dissipated, revealing the originally clear sky.

Zhang Lexuan stood high in the sky, looking at Xu Tianran who was shrouded in a golden light below, and a hint of regret flashed in her eyes.

Although the goal of this raid was only to test the strength of the Sun and Moon Empire, it was not necessarily to take Xu Tianran's life.

But if Xu Tianran can be killed successfully, it will undoubtedly be a huge victory for Douluo Three Kingdoms.

On this point, the judgment of the Xingluo Empire and the Tianhun Empire is correct.

As the crown prince of the Sun-Moon Empire, the death of Xu Tianran would inevitably lead to turmoil in the court and even civil unrest.

This is also what Shrek Academy hopes to see.

The defensive soul guide on Xu Tianran's body emitted a faint light, like an indestructible barrier, blocking all attacks.

Zhang Lexuan used all her strength to perform the "Blood Moon Eclipse", but even with the increase in the soul power of her companions, she was still unable to shake this layer of defense in the slightest.

A blood-red light exploded in front of Xu Tianran, disappearing in an instant like a brilliant firework, but without leaving any scars.

She knew in her heart that this was her only chance.

The strong men of the Sun and Moon Empire swarmed in like sharks smelling blood. The evil aura filled the air, making people suffocate.

Soul-guided rays cut through the sky and poured down towards her like dense raindrops, blocking all her routes of retreat.

The most deadly threat comes from the black phoenix flying high in the sky.

It let out a sharp and piercing cry, and black flames burned fiercely on its body, burning and distorting the surrounding air. It swooped down at an astonishing speed, aiming directly at Zhang Lexuan, as if it wanted to devour her completely.

Zhang Lexuan's figure floated back lightly, merging with the silver moon shadow behind her. Her whole body was bathed in the silver moonlight, appearing sacred and inviolable.

Faced with the aggressive Black Phoenix, she did not choose to confront it head-on, but instead controlled the Silver Moon to slowly sink and eventually fall back to the ground.

She was well aware of the dangers of fighting in the air.

In such an open environment, she would become the target of everyone's attack, and even with her powerful strength, it would be difficult to withstand such a fierce attack.

However, the Black Phoenix pursued it relentlessly like a maggot on the tarsal bone. It swooped down rapidly from the sky, and its black flames dragged a long tail of flame, like a messenger from hell, carrying the breath of destruction.

In the critical moment, Long Aotian stepped forward.

He roared, and his body suddenly expanded, transforming into a huge golden hammer, which rushed into the sky towards the Black Phoenix with the force of thunder.

He wanted to buy precious time for Zhang Lexuan to retreat.

"Hey!"

The harsh friction sound resounded through the sky as the golden hammer collided violently with the black flame, bursting into dazzling light.

However, this light is not a symbol of victory, but a sign of danger.

A layer of strange dark red flames ignited on Long Aotian's body. His body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily among the crowd, causing an immediate exclamation.

In a head-on confrontation, he was defeated, and defeated so completely!

"It's you, Xiaotao, wake up!" Zhang Lexuan shouted, and she flashed and instantly appeared where Long Aotian was before, blocking the way of the Black Phoenix. At this moment, she had completely released her martial soul body - the Silver Moon Body.

Her entire body was enveloped in silver moonlight, as if she had merged into one with the silver moon behind her, emitting a powerful aura.

Zhang Lexuan gently raised her right hand, and a ray of bright moonlight as thick as a water tank gushed out from her fingertips, like a silver beam of light, blocking the Black Phoenix's way.

However, a wave of scorching air blew in her face, and Zhang Lexuan felt that the moonlight she released began to distort under the high temperature, and its power was greatly weakened.

This is……

"The ultimate fire? No, it contains impurities. It is not the pure ultimate fire." Zhang Lexuan made a judgment instantly, and her face became solemn.

The black phoenix did not respond to Zhang Lexuan's provocation. It flapped its wings and turned into a black lightning, instantly appearing in front of Zhang Lexuan.

The Black Phoenix did not use any soul skills, but directly swung its sharp claws towards Zhang Lexuan. Zhang Lexuan was prepared, and slightly turned her body to avoid the attack.

The Black Phoenix's attack speed is extremely fast. If the first strike misses, it will immediately launch the next round of attack.

It flapped its wings, creating gusts of wind that enveloped Zhang Lexuan.

Sharp black feathers were mixed in the strong wind and shot towards Zhang Lexuan like sharp blades.

Zhang Lexuan did not dare to be careless. The golden armor on her body shone brightly, forming a golden light shield that protected her.

The black feathers hit the golden light shield, making crackling sounds, but could not break through the defense of the light shield.

Seeing that it could not defeat her after a long time, the black phoenix let out a sharp cry, and the black flames on its body suddenly surged. It flapped its wings suddenly, turning into a black meteor and crashing towards Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan remained fearless in the face of danger. Golden light shone from her body, and the shadow of the angel behind her became more solid.

She put her hands together, and the Holy Sword of Angel appeared in her hands, with golden holy flames burning, and she rushed towards the Black Phoenix.

"boom--"

With a loud bang, moonlight and firelight shot up into the sky at the same time, illuminating the entire night sky.

A huge shock wave spread out, the surrounding trees were broken in half one after another, and a huge deep pit appeared on the ground.

It was at this time that the battle in the sky also changed.

"What are you waiting for, guys, come on.

I want to see how these guys can stop us without Long Xiaoyao." The main sect leader Du Bu Si could not defeat the enemy after a long attack, and his rebellious character flared up, so he immediately issued an order.

Xuan Lao was slightly startled. Of course, he couldn't let Du Bu Si know the changes on his side, so he had to send the signal to take action. Let's fight first.

What if we can succeed here?
The huge black dragon transformed by Long Xiaoyao didn't seem to care about these.

His figure rolled horizontally in the air, and in an instant, a large amount of black airflow turned into countless dark meteors that covered Xuan Lao and Du Bu Si.

At Long Xiaoyao's level, his powerful strength could even directly affect the changes in the celestial phenomena. Xuan Lao and Du Bu Si had no choice but to deal with it with all their attention.

The high-end combat forces of both sides began a full-scale collision in the air.

Almost immediately, Shrek Academy gained the upper hand.

It must be said that the strength of the Body Sect is quite strong. Their style is similar to that of Du Bu Si. They start with a fierce attack. Not many evil soul masters are good at head-on collisions.

Their strength was reflected in their insidiousness, viciousness and special abilities. For a moment, they were directly suppressed.

As for the Titled Douluo-level warriors of the Sun-Moon Empire, they naturally have no advantage over the Titled Douluos from Shrek Academy.

Xu Tianran had been paying attention to the situation in the air. Seeing that his side was becoming more and more unfavorable, his face couldn't help but turn livid.

"Tell the hall master to get ready." There was an icy chill in Xu Tianran's voice, as if it came from the abyss of the underworld, making people shudder.

"Yes." A man in black tights knelt on one knee, accepted the order respectfully, and then disappeared into the shadow of the study like a wisp of smoke.

The study had long been destroyed, and most of the attendants who had previously been by his side had died. There were only corpses all over the floor and a strong smell of blood. But this was the Mingdu Palace after all, and Xu Tianran would never be short of people to work for him.

He sat upright on a golden chair, the armrests of which were carved with lifelike dragon patterns, as if to highlight his supreme status.

Not long after, Zhang Lexuan and other people from the three major forces who were fighting on the other side suddenly heard some strange sounds. These sounds came from far away, from weak to strong, and echoed in the palace like ghosts.

"Za za, za za, quack, quack, squeak, squeak..."

These sounds did not come from one direction, but from all directions, as if the entire palace had come alive and turned into a huge monster, opening its bloody mouth and wanting to devour them all.

This is……

Zhang Lexuan's heart tightened, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in her heart. The moonlight on her body burst out with all its strength, rushing towards the huge black phoenix like a tide.

The Black Phoenix let out a sharp cry, and large waves of fire appeared on its body as it pounced towards her.

He looked completely fearless, as if he was a messenger from hell, dragging her into an endless abyss.

Zhang Lexuan and other strong men from the three major forces soon felt something was wrong. Their faces became extremely ugly because they were shocked to find that the entire Sun-Moon Empire Palace seemed to be changing. A suffocating feeling of oppression came from all directions, making it almost impossible for them to breathe.

The surrounding rooms that were protected by soul guide shields actually moved.

That's right. They moved. They were like giant steel beasts awakening from their slumber. With a deafening roar, they began to move, transform, and reveal their ferocious fangs.

The houses cracked open like torn wounds, revealing the white bones inside. Huge cannon muzzles began to emerge from them, like giant pythons spitting out scarlet tongues. The cold metallic luster was filled with a sense of destruction under the light of the soul guide shield, as if it would spew out earth-shattering energy in the next second.

If Han Yu were here and had time to think carefully, he would definitely guess that the warehouse he discovered was not the only one.

Because there were almost no soul guides and fixed-type soul guide shells above level seven, only an empty warehouse, as if mocking his ignorance.

The other more valuable or terrifying warehouse is in the Mingdu Palace! And everything here is just a supplement from there, all of which are various soul guide weapons above level seven, enough to raze the entire Mingdu to the ground and turn all those who dare to resist into ashes.

Watching the huge cannons slowly appearing and feeling the terrifying soul power rising around them, Zhang Lexuan's face instantly changed. She shouted without hesitation, "Quickly retreat, retreat from the ground."

Her voice was filled with anxiety and uneasiness, as if she had a premonition that a huge disaster was about to happen. (End of this chapter)
