Douluo: Peerless Light.

Chapter 574 The Desperate Situation, the Pessimistic Elder Xuan 【4000 words】

"Although I really don't want to admit it, it's true. The difference in hard power between our two sides is too great."

Qian Zhaoguang sighed deeply.

High-end force, low-end force, productivity, war background, technology background, quality of life of the people, and even ideology and education system.
Compared with the original Douluo Three Kingdoms, the Sun Moon Empire is crushed in everything.

And it was a thorough multi-dimensional explosion.

Unless the Undead Empire is really pulled out, or a god-level combat power is sent to perform a mechanical descending, and the entire Sun-Moon Empire will be destroyed by one's own power.

Otherwise, this is an unsolvable situation.

Oh, or at this time, if there is a certain system or something, it would be possible to issue some props that can make the Sun Moon Empire disappear collectively.

But that's a bit of a daydream.

"Even if there is no such thing as a beast horde, what if many old Shrek elders rush to help Tiandou City? It's not a problem to satisfy the Emperor Tianhun's wish. But the problem is, we can keep it for a while, but we can't keep it forever."

"Once we are dragged into the quagmire of war, we no longer have the initiative and can only be exhausted in defense. The border line that needs to be protected is too long, and even Super Douluo will be exhausted."

"What's more, if Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xi split up and fly directly to the capitals of Dou Ling and Xing Luo to execute the beheading plan, then what can we do to stop them? Who can stop them?"

"Limit Douluo, Limit Douluo, no wonder the Sun Moon Empire has to wait for the Dragon God to go before attacking. This is an unsolvable situation." Dubushi's voice seemed very disappointed, "That's all."

The next day, the long trumpet sounded again.

Countless soldiers are ready to go, standing on the city wall together.

After an afternoon and a whole night of emergency repairs, the huge wound that was blasted open yesterday has been temporarily sealed by various means.

The cracks in the wall itself have also been repaired to a certain extent.

Although it is not as solid as before, it is at least barely complete, much stronger than the precarious situation after the war.

Originally, the soldiers of Tianhun's side were already prepared to live and die with Tiandou City, and even many citizens were already nervous, ready to fight the Sun and Moon army to the death.

But who knows, the intensity of today's war is far from being comparable to yesterday's.

Even worse than the first day.

Not only are there two less soul engineer groups at the Beastmaster level, but there are also only four ordinary soul engineer groups left.

The Fire Phoenix Soul Engineer Group and the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Group all disappeared.

Only the Dreadclaw Soul Engineer Group and the Emperor Dragon Soul Engineer Group are still soaring in the sky.

As for how many ordinary soldiers came, it was impossible to count them with the naked eye.

Regardless of whether it is 20 or 10,000+, it looks like a dark place, and you can't see the end at a glance. You don't know how many people have come.

Emperor Tianhun and Du Bushi stood shoulder to shoulder at the top of the city, looking at the invading enemy, with mixed feelings in his heart.

It really happened as Qian Chaoguang said.

From this point of view, the Sun Moon Empire probably really let Heaven Dou City go.

Heaven Dou City has been saved, but how can the Heavenly Soul Empire be defended?

no one knows.

A few days later, Qian Zhaoguang and Huo Yutong returned to Shrek City.

Those who came back with them were the members of Noumenon Sect who had lost their ancestral land.

To be precise, part of it.

About one-third of it.

These are basically the surviving elites and wounded among the younger generation of Noumenon Sect.

Even if they didn't want to, and wanted to stay on the battlefield, they were led by Golden Body Douluo Jinpeng and forced to come to Shrek City by Poison Immortal.

This includes Long Aotian and Princess Wei Na, as well as a dozen young members of the Heavenly Soul royal family.

Cai Meier, the current dean of Shrek Academy, personally took them into Shrek City.

Everyone knows that.

This is the fire seed, the fire seed of the ontology sect and the heavenly soul royal family.

Emperor Tianhun and Du Bushi already had the intention of asking for help.

Even if they won the battle to defend Sky Dou City and successfully curbed the advance plan of the Sun Moon Empire, it was still of no avail.

The sky soul empire has already sun set, this is something that anyone can see.

The breath of life on Sea God Lake is still so strong, but the ancient golden trees on Sea God Island have become increasingly dim.

Not only is the bright breath no longer strong, even some of the branches are showing signs of withering.

In the empty Sea God Pavilion, all this became more obvious.

Some of the internal carvings have already shown a gray-black state.

Although it is still solid and solid, it looks a little scary.

Huo Yutong raised her hand to touch the black mark, and a strong sense of twilight immediately returned to her spiritual sea.

Using the Eye of Destiny, she can even clearly see a thread of fate.

More than half of the thick thread of fate connecting the ancient golden tree has been broken, and it seems that it is about to collapse at any moment.

She was dying.

"I don't know what happened to this ancient golden tree. It has been showing signs of withering recently, and many methods have been used to cure it."

At this moment, Elder Xuan suddenly appeared in the Sea God Pavilion with a tired look on his face.

"But it doesn't matter anymore. Compared with the safety of Douluo Continent and the academy, no matter what the ancient golden tree is, it's just a plant. If it falls, it will fall."

Unlike in the original book, Mu En told Elder Xuan everything in full before his fall.

This time, because Mu En learned the truth about the ancient golden tree, and he had already developed a will to die, he did not tell Elder Xuan about the so-called inheritance information.

Besides, Qian Chaoguang himself knew it well, and there was no need to make another hand and let Elder Xuan be a sounding board.

Therefore, with regard to the true situation of the ancient golden tree and the choices made by the past sea god pavilion masters, only Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong are left in Shrek Academy.

"Elder Xuan."

The two siblings saluted in unison.

Elder Xuan waved his hand: "Sit down, there are no outsiders here now, let me relax a little bit. The situation in the mainland has suddenly become so dire. The Sun Moon Empire and the Star Fighting Soul Beast have their own ghosts, and they are killing people. Tell me , how was the battle in Heaven Dou City?"

Qian Zhaoguang organized his language, and with Huo Yutong's supplement, he fully narrated the details of the battle in Tiandou City.

After hearing what the two said, Elder Xuan's face became even more ugly.

"Do you know the current situation of the Heavenly Soul Empire in the few days since you returned from Tiandou City?"

Qian Zhaoguang shook his head: "Time is running out, I didn't try to obtain this information. But even if I can guess, I can guess it. I'm afraid the Sun Moon Empire is in dire straits."

Elder Xuan sighed deeply: "You're right, just as you predicted a year and a half ago, the Sun Moon Empire turned from the east to the north, directly bypassing Tiandou City."

"Just a few days after your return, the Sun Moon Empire not only increased its troops for the second time, but also seems to have added new equipment. The Heavenly Soul Empire has collapsed and lost more than one-third of its territory."

"Compared to the previous steady progress, the Sun Moon Empire is now like a monkey whose eyes have been slapped in a hurry. It urgently needs some targets to vent its anger."

"For this reason, they didn't even wait for the arrival of the troops and officials who would take over the city, and kept pushing towards the northeast, almost breaking through the entire northern part of the Heavenly Soul Empire."

"Now, the tug-of-war in Tiandou City is still going on, and the Dou Ling Empire sent another group of reinforcements to support the Sky Soul Empire. But if they follow this situation, it will be very difficult for them to hold on."

The siblings were not surprised by this.

As early as the first day of the Tiandou City defense battle, Qian Chaoguang had already judged the situation in advance and made arrangements for it to a certain extent.

Even he was clear about the other party's eager goal - to advance to the Dragon City in the northeast and open mines on the edge of the extreme north.

Too much time wasted before, and they are rushing to make progress.

For this reason, the main battle force led by Juzi couldn't even take care of capturing the local soul master sects to form a new army, and could only leave it to the follow-up troops to finish the work.

As for the Dou Ling Empire sending a large army into the Heavenly Soul, that is also a normal situation.

The emperor of the Dou Ling Empire just lacked long-term vision, and he wasn't really purely brain-dead.

With such a fierce attack from the Sun Moon Empire, of course he could see that they had to be united in order to resist it.

In this way, it is obviously the best choice to keep powerful enemies out of the country and place the main battlefield in the Sky Soul Empire.

Why not do it without harming your own people and land, but also defending against the enemy thousands of miles away?
If the Heavenly Soul is destroyed, they will be ready to withstand the bombardment of the Sun Moon Empire at any time, just like the Star Luo Empire.

As for leading Shrek to attack like thousands of years ago to help?
Before learning about the beast tide, Elder Xuan really thought about it.

After all, it was because of Shrek Academy's intervention that the so-called jihad was finally won, and even the name Sun Moon Continent was lost.

But for now, forget it.

Many Shrek elders are already busy, and with the cooperation of the Pixiu Chamber of Commerce, they are crazily arming the Shrek City Defense Force.

Countless soul guides were moved to the top of Shrek City, box after box of custom-packed soul guide shells were stuffed into the war preparation warehouse, afraid that the soul beast would come at any time, but I didn't do it well. be on guard.

That's why the entire Sea God Pavilion, and even the entire inner courtyard seemed deserted—almost everyone went to help.

Shrek already seemed a little overwhelmed, putting all his energy on resisting the beast tide, let alone helping others.

"By the way, isn't Du Bushi planning to come to Shrek City? The Sun Moon Empire's offensive is slowing down, so he shouldn't be needed there now, right?" Elder Xuan asked.

Huo Yutong shook his head slightly: "The teacher is from the Heavenly Soul Empire. Even if he knows he is invincible, he will fight until the last moment."

"Oh, the stubborn old man."

Elder Xuan sighed deeply.

"I hope that when the beast tide comes, he will be able to spare no effort to help Shrek City. The elites of Noumenon Sect and Shrek are all concentrated here. Once the city is broken, our reserve talents may be disconnected in the future."

Qian Chaoguang took a deep breath, as if he had made some decision: "Don't worry, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and there will be a way."

Elder Xuan glanced at him and smiled gently: "Frankly speaking, I am not a person who is good at being a leader, nor am I a qualified decision maker."

"When Mr. Mu was here, I lived a free and unrestrained life every day. All I had to do was eat, drink, and practice. I was always happy."

"Ever since Mr. Mu left, this burden has been on my shoulders. It wasn't until this time that I really understood what kind of responsibilities and pressure Mr. Mu has shouldered over the years."

"I always do things very rough, not thoughtful enough, and not comprehensive enough. Many times I don't have the courage of Mr. Mu, so I just keep going."

"It would be great if the war of the Sun Moon Empire started a few decades later! By then, you and Xiaotong must have grown up, and this old man can confidently pass this burden on to you."

"You two, brother and sister, work together, and you must do a lot better than me, a bad old man."

Speaking of this, the vicissitudes of the smile on Elder Xuan's face were full of strong self-mockery and bitterness.

"If nothing can be done in the end, then the two of you, brother and sister, must survive. When your cultivation has reached the peak of the world, if you still have the energy to spare, then consider whether to rebuild the academy."

What Elder Xuan said was extremely pessimistic, it could almost be regarded as an account of his funeral - he was already thinking about what to do after Shrek's demise.

Even if Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er didn't tell Elder Xuan all the details about the Sun Moon Empire's soul tools, he could still see that the Douluo Three Kingdoms was dying.

The gap is really too big.

The big one made him feel desperate.

In just one month, the Heavenly Soul Empire was beaten back and forth by the Sun and Moon army.

It is true that Tiandou City has been guarded, but this looks more like a "gift" from the Sun Moon Empire.

In just one night, the Mingdou Mountain Range, which had been consolidated by the Star Luo Empire for thousands of years, changed hands.

Dai Hao, the White Tiger Duke, did organize a counterattack, but it was like a lion sleeping too lazy to drive away disturbing mosquitoes.

Does all this really make sense?
The strength comparison between the two sides is completely crushing.

Ye Xishui, Long Xiaoyao, Kong Deming, the tenth-level soul mentor.

Just these three extreme combat powers of the Sun Moon Empire already caused Shrek to be full of worries.

Now I still have to worry about the five fierce beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest launching a beast tide.

Even if the emerald swan Brigitte who is not good at attacking is removed, there are still two extreme-level combat powers.

Among them, the beast god Ditian is recognized as the number one powerhouse in the world.

What can Shrek do to block it?

Even with Noumenon Sect added, Elder Xuan is not sure that he can defend Shrek City.

Therefore, on the night when Qian Chaoguang revealed the beast tide, Elder Xuan was already ready to sacrifice for Shrek.

Even if he dies, he still wants to keep the future of the academy and leave the spark that can start a prairie fire.

Qian Zhaoguang's eyes kept flickering, and one thought after another flashed in his mind.

Elder Xuan patted him on the shoulder: "What I said just now is a bit too much. Now that I am still alive, I still have to bear the pressure. I have been traveling for so long, go back and rest first, there is probably a backlog in your chamber of commerce." There are tons of problems waiting for you to deal with."

(I feel that the recovery is okay. It should be no problem to update [-] a day in these two days. I will strive to return Argentina to the championship for a week starting next week)
