Chapter 166 The war begins
For ordinary people, it was still a quiet late night as usual.

But in the marginal war zone adjacent to the Tianhun Empire, the Xingluo Empire and the Sun and Moon Empire.

The intensity of the battle, which was originally lukewarm, suddenly increased.

The Sun-Moon Empire's army on the front line had secretly replaced a batch of new military soul guides at some point.

Even ordinary soldiers without soul power are equipped with new soul guides with soul power charging devices.

At the same time, the original Sun and Moon Soul Master position was also taken over by several ninth-level Soul Masters.

Even the five major soul guide groups that serve as the protectors of the Sun-Moon Empire have been dispatched!
Except for the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Corps who are responsible for guarding Mingdu.

The other four strongest soul guide groups were sent as vanguards to the two major war zones to carry out offensive operations.

They even used powerful weapons such as the ninth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells.

The Northwest Army Group of the Xingluo Empire, led by Duke Dai Hao of White Tiger, collapsed at the first blow.

In less than half a day, most of them were killed or injured under the crushing of the new soul guides, and they had no choice but to retreat to Yuming City to hold their ground.

The Sun-Moon Empire did not pursue the victory, but instead built fortifications based on the natural dangers of the Mingdou Mountains.

To consolidate the success of this war and prevent being pushed back later.

However, the sudden attack by the Sun-Moon Empire was defeated by the Sky Soul Empire.

The offensive of the Sun and Moon Empire, which was originally thought to be relatively easier to control, encountered unprecedented resistance this time.

"Humph, you scoundrels from the Sun-Moon Empire, since you are here, then you all should stay here!"

Du Bu Si looked at the deep night sky in the distance and saw a ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell whistling towards him, which made even him feel a little nervous.

He smiled coldly in his heart, if it weren't for Huo Yuhao's advance notice.

It is impossible for me to appear here, and I am afraid that the Sun-Moon Empire will really succeed.

Although the power of the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shells is indeed enough to cause damage to the strong at the extreme level.

However, the first prerequisite for killing is to hit the target effectively. The combat perception ability of the Extreme Douluo is no joke.

Especially when you have been prepared for a long time, what can it do even if it is a ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell?

A dark green vortex rose from the sky over the uninhabited wilderness, hanging high above the Sun-Moon Empire Legion that was still advancing secretly.

The two ninth-level soul mentor captains who were in charge of leading the Terrorclaw Soul Mentor Group and the Evil King Soul Mentor Group were horrified when they saw this.

Mad Bull Douluo hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, get ready for battle, it's the enemy's real Douluo!"

Immediately, Mad Bull Douluo winked at Terror Claw Douluo standing beside him.

After many cooperative battles, Terrorclaw Douluo, who had already formed a tacit understanding, naturally understood what the other party meant.

[The Horror Claw Soul Mentor Group, the Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group, prepare to retreat! Prepare to retreat! ]

Compared with the casualties of ordinary soldiers and those scattered soul instructor groups.

As the protectors of the nation, the Terrorclaw Soul Mentor Group and the Evil King Soul Mentor Group naturally cannot be easily defeated here.

The two Titled Douluo who were able to cultivate to the ninth level of Soul Master naturally knew the horror of the ninety-nine-level Extreme Douluo.

And when they launched a surprise attack on the border of the Tianhun Empire today, they were also prepared to fight Du Bu Si.

After calculation, even if everyone's strength was gathered, they would not be able to kill this original Douluo.

In this case, instead of incurring meaningless losses, it is better to absorb some ordinary soldiers to preserve the combat effectiveness.

Even if they were Extreme Douluo, they didn't believe that the other party had the ability to kill them all when they were determined to escape!
The appearance of the ninth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells was so powerful that even Du Bu Si could only stop it.

As the dark green soul power vortex formed, a dark hole gradually formed in the surrounding space.

It has been some time since Du Bu Si broke through to the ninety-ninth level, and now his understanding of space has naturally improved.

As a level 98 Super Douluo, he has been immersed in this field for many years, and those things that he could not understand before are now understood at once.

As most of the projectile was swallowed up by the space crack, this level nine fixed-type soul guide shell was triggered in the unstable space crack.

Most of the power burst out, but all poured into the boundless, dark and deep space crack.

Only a small part of the power leaked out, but the range damage of the ninth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells was not outstanding.

When these remaining powers were released, at most they could only illuminate the night sky like a gorgeous firework display.

However, it was unable to cause any damage to Du Bu Si who was nearby, or to the Sun-Moon Empire's army which was further below it.

Du Bu Si frowned slightly: "Strange, is the range of the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell so far? Forget it, let's take down these guys from the Sun and Moon Empire first."

As the residual power of the ninth-level fixed-type soul-guided artillery shell exploded in the sky, it dissipated.

A dark green meteor, with a long tail flame, was moving towards the Sun-Moon Empire Legion in the night sky.

Mad Bull Douluo quickly gave the order: "Not good, too fast, everyone, use the fixed soul guide shells, open fire!"

At this time, due to the slow speed, the Terrorclaw Soul Instructor Corps, which was originally responsible for the rear guard at the back of the Soul Instructor Corps, had already begun to evacuate quietly.

The Evil King Soul Guide Group led a group of soul guides and soldiers to fire fixed-type soul guide shells in an attempt to attack Du Bu Si.

At the same time, all the soul mentors of the Evil King Soul Mentor Group have also made preparations to retreat.

However, the fixed-type soul guide shells below level nine have no effect at all on an Extreme Douluo of Du Bu Si's level.

"There is indeed a problem. How come even these first-level fixed-type soul guide shells have such a low range?"

However, as the poison of the Sun and Moon Empire Legion phalanx gradually approached him, his face looked a little ugly.

Seeing the other party getting closer and closer to them, Mad Bull Douluo and Terrorclaw Douluo looked at each other.

Without caring about stabilizing the morale of other soldiers, Mad Bull Douluo directly grabbed Terrorclaw Douluo.

Then he activated the ninth-level flying soul guide and flew away.

Seeing that their commander had already retreated, the soldiers of the Evil King Soul Guide Corps, who had been prepared for a long time, hurriedly followed.

They are all the latest model seventh-level flying soul guides, and are equipped with soul power charging devices of the same level.

It is fully capable of exerting a flying speed that exceeds that of an average agility attack soul saint.

Seeing their main force retreat, the ordinary soldiers also came to their senses.

But for a moment I didn't know whether I should continue attacking or running away.

But Du Bushi would not give them so much chance to think, and watched the two soul mentor groups of the country's protectors gradually going away.

Du Bu Si sneered. This was a bit too much of a disdain for him, a Douluo whose fundamental source of energy was poison!

He did not pay much attention to the ordinary troops who kept attacking him like mosquitoes. As the dark green meteors streaked across the sky, dots of dark green soul power light floated down from the night sky and then landed on the soldiers.

"What's going on! Why can't I move!" An ordinary soldier of the Sun-Moon Empire shouted in horror.

He felt himself paralyzed, and then he lost control of his body.

The body equipped with a large amount of soul-guided armor and soul-guided cannons fell heavily to the ground.

Then, as if a domino effect had fallen, the surrounding soldiers fell to the ground one after another.

Not only their bodies, but even their soul power and mental strength seemed to be inexplicably restricted at this moment.

And each person's symptoms are different, and they even overlap with each other.

Paralysis, weakness, dizziness, confusion, hallucinations.
Gradually, these soldiers of the Sun-Moon Empire felt that they had lost their perception of the outside world, and then nothing happened.

Although Du Bu Si did not use a poison that was lethal this time, it was just a test run.

The poison he used was not something that these soldiers, who were not even at the Soul Master level at the highest, could withstand.

Not long after, soldiers from the Sky Soul Empire, led by a strong man from the Body Sect and fully armed with the soul guides designed by Huo Yuhao, arrived here in the distance.

After confirmation from the strong men of the Body Sect that there was no remaining poison spreading here.

They carefully stripped off all the equipment from the Sun-Moon Empire soldiers who had lost their ability to move, then controlled them tightly and brought them back to the city.

And under the nose of an Extreme Douluo who was tracking them with all his might without any hindrance, how could they escape even with a seventh-level flying soul guide?
Even if they ran separately, it would only mean a detour for Du Bu Si.

As soon as it passed by, the terrible poison paralyzed all the senses of these soul masters who protected the country.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer soldiers following him, and a somewhat bitter expression appeared on Mad Bull Douluo's face.

Seeing this, Terrorclaw Douluo hurriedly said, "Evil Lord, let me go! I'll help you stop that old poisonous creature!"

"Go back and inform His Majesty immediately. We must ask for stronger people to come to our aid, otherwise it will be too late!"

Mad Bull Douluo took a deep breath. He knew that he could no longer hesitate in this situation.

After he put down the Terrorclaw Douluo, the power of the ninth-level flying soul guide was no longer limited.

In the end, only one sentence was left, echoing in the night sky: "Take care, Lao Liao."

Terrorclaw Douluo Liao Mengkai looked unusually calm at this time, and also replied: "Take care."

Then he looked at the dark green meteor in the night sky, which was flying closer and closer like the deadly god of death.

A pitch-black humanoid soul guide armor covered his body, and then a dark golden light burst out.

Immediately afterwards, he held two five-foot-long swords in his hands, exuding an unparalleled sharp aura.

The Terrorclaw Soul Mentors are best at attacking strongholds, and their most fundamentally powerful fighting method is close combat.

As the leader of the Terrorclaw Soul Mentor Group, Liao Mengkai's martial soul is even more unique.

It is an invisible and intangible martial soul called the Sword Soul, which can be integrated into metal and has endless uses.

And paired with the ninth-level close-range soul guide weapon, the Demon Sword, although he does not have the cultivation level of a Super Douluo.

But in theory, as long as he was given the opportunity, he was even confident that he could seriously injure or even kill the Ultimate Douluo.

A black light flashed by, with the help of the humanoid soul guide.

This Terrorclaw Douluo actually crossed the barrier of space and appeared directly next to Du Bu Si.

However, Du Bu Si was reluctant to even give him an extra glance. Seeing this, Kongzhua Douluo felt deeply humiliated.

"Du Bu Si, listen to me carefully, I am the one who will kill you today."

The pitch-black demonic sword was swung, with the sword soul attached to it.

By burning his qi and blood to lock onto Du Bu Si himself, using all the power of his martial soul as the source, he was determined to hit the target.

However, there was no chance for this sword to strike. Even if they were both Extreme Douluo, no one would dare to enter the poisonous miasma surrounding Du Bu Si.

Now this Terrorclaw Douluo can be regarded as the number one.

While he was burning his blood and mobilizing his martial spirit, the poisonous miasma around Du Bu Si had already taken over his body.

Although the humanoid soul guide is powerful, it is still difficult to defend against the terrible poison of Du Bu Si, which is pervasive and can penetrate any object. Even the soul power itself can become a transmission medium.

Terrorclaw Douluo fell heavily from the sky, just like his subordinates or ordinary soldiers, losing all his ability to move.

He made such a bold statement, but he didn't even waste a moment's effort to poison the victim.

However, as the leader of the Evil Lord Soul Guide Group, who is famous for his speed among the Protectors of the Nation, Mad Bull Douluo’s flying speed is indeed fast enough.

I'm afraid it's not just the role of the ninth-level top-level flying soul guide, but also its own martial soul and soul skills, which are probably focused on this aspect.

However, Du Bu Si did not take it to heart. Instead, he looked at the empty Sun and Moon Empire headquarters not far away and snorted coldly.

"Master, three hundred soldiers from the Evil Lord Soul Mentor Corps, and three hundred soldiers from the Terrorclaw Soul Mentor Corps."

"As well as Terrifying Claw Douluo himself and the other auxiliary troops, the number of people has been counted."

"It is confirmed that this time, the Sun Moon Empire's troops deployed on the defense line of our Heavenly Soul Empire have been wiped out."

"It's just that..." The Titled Douluo from the Body Sect was a little confused.

"Just what?" Du Bu Si asked, looking at the place where he was hesitant.

"But Master, why don't we just kill these soldiers and be done with it? Even though we have enough food in the country to feed these captives."

"But the Sun-Moon Empire has wicked ambitions and is clearly preparing to tear its face off and launch an all-out war. This..."

Hearing this, Du Bu Si waved his hand and said, "Just do whatever I tell you to do, and don't ask me."

"This is the news that Huo Yuhao passed on to me. As for why, just ask him when he comes back."

"Yes, Sect Master."

As the Sun-Moon Empire completely tore up the already fragile peace agreement.

The war has begun.

However, for Huo Yuhao today, the most difficult thing is not to defeat the Sun Moon Empire.

Instead, he wanted to defeat the Sun-Moon Empire, the Star Luo Empire and the Douling Empire at the smallest possible cost.

The four great empires, as the basic foundation of mankind, are also part of Huo Yuhao's subsequent plans.

It is not a good thing no matter which side suffers too much damage, especially if the mid-to-high-end pillars are too severely damaged.
