Douluo: Adventure Begins from Wuhun City

Chapter 296

After barely holding off a wave of attacks, although they suffered heavy losses, hope rose in the hearts of these border soldiers, as if the Wuhun Empire was not invincible.

But before they could be happy for long, the Wuhun Empire came back again. Although the number of troops coming was not large, there were two figures standing in the sky in front of the army.

Previously, the two empires relied on towering walls, strict fortresses, and dense fortifications to resist the attacks of a large number of spirit masters from the Spirit Empire. In order to tear open this line of defense, the top leaders of the Spirit Empire discussed and decided to send two Titled Douluo masters - Blood Demon Douluo and Shadow Douluo.

Their strength is not that strong. They are considered newly promoted Titled Douluo, and their soul power is at the level of 91 skills. However, both of them have strange soul skills, so their overall strength is not bad.

Blood Demon Axe Douluo was tall and mighty, like a towering mountain. He held a huge blood-red battle axe in his hand, and the axe blade flashed with strange blood light. Every time he swung it, it seemed to split the sky and the earth, bringing with it a terrifying whistling sound, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

Shadow Douluo has a ghostly figure, covered in a black robe, his face hidden in the darkness, and his expression cannot be seen clearly. He is good at the power of shadows, can shuttle freely in the darkness, approach the enemy silently, and give a fatal blow. Wherever he passes, it seems that even the light is swallowed up.

When they stood in front of the defense line that stretched for miles, there was no fear in their eyes, only disdain and bloodthirstiness.

"Humph, with just these, you think you can stop the Spirit Empire?"

Blood Demon Douluo snorted coldly, and suddenly raised the Blood Demon Axe in his hand. The tremendous soul power surged out, turning into a blood-red axe light, and slashed fiercely at the city wall.

In an instant, the ground shook, and the seemingly indestructible wall actually had a huge crack under this axe, bricks and stones flew, and dust and smoke billowed. The soldiers on the wall were terrified and fell to the ground one after another, and some were even shaken off the city wall and smashed to pieces.

Shadow Douluo was not to be outdone, and his figure flashed and merged into the darkness. The next moment, he appeared in a defensive fortress, and the shadow thorn in his hand stretched out like a venomous snake, instantly reaping the lives of several defenders. The fortress was immediately in chaos, with shouts and screams intertwined.

On the city wall, the defenders of the two empires clenched their weapons. They were powerless against the Titled Douluo, but they did not despair. Instead, they tried their best to guard against the attacks of the spirit masters of the Wuhun Empire below and prevent them from breaking through the defense.

"It's all in vain!"

Blood Demon Douluo, in simple attire, took a step forward, causing the earth to tremble. Then, he swung his battle axe and chopped fiercely at the city wall. A huge blood-colored axe blade flew out of the axe, like a long rainbow piercing the sun, slashing towards the city wall with the momentum of destroying everything.

"Get out of the way!"

The defenders on the city wall cried out in shock and fled in all directions. The axe blade struck the city wall, causing bricks and stones to fly and smoke to billow. A hole was actually cut in the city wall, and broken stones fell down.

At this moment, Shadow Douluo also took the opportunity to attack. He suddenly appeared from the darkness, appeared behind a group of defenders, waved his hands, and the power of shadows entangled like black silk, instantly covering several defenders.

Under the erosion of the shadow, the defenders screamed in pain, their bodies gradually became weak and finally collapsed to the ground. The situation of the two empires was precarious. At the critical moment, the priests who had been sitting in the rear finally arrived.

The chief of the worshippers of the Tiandou Empire was a white-haired old man named Tianling Douluo. In his hand he held a staff that emitted a soft light. Although he looked old, his eyes were full of vigor and brilliance.

The Xing Luo Empire's worshipper is a burly middle-aged man named Ba Shan Douluo. His muscles bulge all over his body, as if he contains endless power, and his fists shine with a metallic luster.

They are two empires with a few remaining strengths, especially the Tiandou Empire.

At this moment, the Tianling Douluo of the Tiandou Empire muttered something and waved the staff in his hand. A white light curtain rose up instantly, covering the gap in the city wall and temporarily blocking the subsequent offensive of the Wuhun Empire.

Ba Shan Douluo shouted loudly and rushed towards Blood Demon Axe Douluo like a cannonball. He raised his right fist high and smashed it hard at the opponent with a whistling sound.

"Well done!"

Blood Demon Axe Douluo was not surprised but delighted, and swung his battle axe to meet the fist of Tyrant Mountain Douluo. The axe and fist collided with each other, making a deafening sound, and the shock wave spread in all directions, shaking the nearby soldiers and low-level spirit masters to the ground.

Seeing the situation, Shadow Douluo flashed and pounced towards Sky Spirit Douluo, quickly forming seals with his hands in front of him, and shadow runes emerged and enveloped Sky Spirit Douluo.

Tianling Douluo was not in a hurry. He tapped the ground lightly with his staff, and white rays of light poured out from the ground, forming light shields that blocked the shadow runes.

The two sides fought back and forth, and the battle fell into a stalemate. However, as time went on, the priests of the two empires gradually felt exhausted. The power of Blood Devil Axe Douluo seemed endless. Every time he swung his axe, it brought more powerful destructive power. Tyrant Mountain Douluo's arms began to tremble slightly, and a trace of blood oozed from the corners of his mouth.

The shadow power of Shadow Douluo became more and more strange and difficult to defend. Although Tianling Douluo relied on his deep soul power to support himself, the light on the light curtain was getting dimmer and dimmer. The defenders on the city wall were anxious. They wanted to help, but they were blocked by the soul power aftermath raging everywhere on the battlefield. They could only worry.

"No, if we continue like this we will lose sooner or later. We must think of a way!"

Tianling Douluo shouted loudly while resisting Shadow Douluo's attack.

Ba Shan Douluo gritted his teeth, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

"Fight!"

After saying this, he ignored his own injuries, forcibly increased his soul power, his muscles tensed, veins popped out on his skin, and he rushed towards Blood Devil Axe Douluo again.

This time, he used his most powerful skill - Ba Shan Po.

I saw a bright light shining from his fists, which gathered into the shadow of a small mountain and smashed towards Blood Devil Axe Douluo.

Blood Devil Axe Douluo felt the power of this attack and did not dare to underestimate it. He poured all his soul power into the battle axe. The blood light on the axe body surged wildly, and then he chopped down towards Ba Shan Douluo's attack.

"boom!"

There was an earth-shattering explosion as the two attacks collided, creating a powerful energy storm.

Ba Shan Douluo screamed, and his body flew out like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground, his life or death unknown. Although Blood Demon Axe Douluo was also shocked and took a few steps back, he quickly stabilized his body and laughed at the sky. "With just this little ability, you think you can stop the progress of my Wuhun Empire?"

Shadow Douluo took advantage of the moment when Sky Spirit Douluo was distracted by Ba Shan Douluo's injuries and increased the intensity of his attack.

His shadow rune broke through the defense of the light shield and wrapped around Tianling Douluo.

Tianling Douluo was unable to dodge and was hit by the shadow rune. His body suddenly stiffened and his soul power did not flow smoothly.

"Old guy, suffer death!"

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Shadow Douluo's eyes, and he quickly formed seals with his hands, preparing to give Sky Spirit Douluo a fatal blow.

At this critical moment, Tianling Douluo displayed his ninth soul skill, - Skylight Staff Power!
Suddenly, a stream of light swept out from behind, so fast that it looked like a stream of light, whistling out and directly cutting off the shadow rune that was about to entangle Tianling Douluo.

Shadow Douluo was startled, sensing danger in the stream of light, and quickly retreated. Sky Spirit Douluo took advantage of Shadow Douluo's retreat to temporarily breathe a sigh of relief. He quickly took out a pill from his arms and swallowed it, circulated his soul power, and tried to dispel the remaining shadow power in his body.

However, he was old after all, and suffered continuous attacks from Shadow Douluo, which caused serious loss of soul power and his face became paler as paper.

Seeing that Sky Spirit Douluo's ninth soul skill had not yet dissipated and was still releasing power, Shadow Douluo did not dare to advance. He snorted coldly and decided to change his strategy. He flashed and merged into the darkness, and then appeared behind a group of defenders on the city wall. He waved his hands, and the power of shadow raged, instantly enveloping several defenders. The defenders struggled in horror, but could not break free from the shadow's shackles, and were dead in a moment.

On the other side, Ba Shan Douluo caught a glimpse of this scene and became extremely anxious. His fists became disordered. Blood Demon Axe Douluo seized the opportunity and chopped out with his axe. A blood-red axe light went straight towards Ba Shan Douluo.

Ba Shan Douluo was unable to dodge and was grazed on the shoulder by the axe. Blood splattered all over the place. He groaned and his body swayed a few times in the air.

"Hahaha, today is the day you die!"

Seeing this, Blood Devil Axe Douluo laughed triumphantly and raised the battle axe in his hand again, ready to give Ba Shan Douluo a fatal blow.

But no matter what, Bashan Douluo was also a veteran Titled Douluo, and he quickly adjusted himself. He endured the severe pain in his body, and the fist in his hand, which seemed to be made of divine gold and was emitting dazzling golden light, released a majestic aura. He straightened his body, swung his fist, and rushed towards Blood Demon Douluo.

"Death struggle, come and die!"

Blood Devil Axe Douluo roared, swung his battle axe again, and rushed towards Tyrant Mountain Douluo. Every step he took made the earth tremble. Tyrant Mountain Douluo was not afraid at all. He tapped the ground with his toes and soared into the air. His speed was so fast that it left a trail of afterimages. His fists attacked Blood Devil Axe Douluo like a storm.

Blood Demon Axe Douluo waved his battle axe and fought hard. For a moment, the axe shadow and sword shadow intertwined, colliding to produce countless sparks. The powerful soul power fluctuations spread in all directions, knocking the surrounding soldiers and soul masters to the ground.

However, although the attack routes of both sides were similar, both were brutal and domineering, and their spirit power was almost the same, Blood Demon Douluo was in his prime, only a little over 100 years old, but Ba Shan Douluo was also like Tian Ling Douluo, very old, and his blood and energy were far inferior to that of Blood Demon Douluo. He soon fell into trouble, and because his blood and energy were declining and unable to be sustained, he revealed a flaw and was directly seized by Blood Demon Douluo, who smashed him from the sky to the ground and into the city wall.

The Blood Demon Douluo, who had gained the upper hand from the attack, looked at the deep dent in the city wall and burst into wild laughter.

"When you get old, just stay at home. Why are you playing around out there?"

However, facing the ridicule of Blood Demon Douluo, Ba Shan Douluo climbed up from the city wall at some point. Although he was seriously injured and his breath was weak, his eyes were full of determination. He held on to his body, mobilized the last bit of soul power in his body, and pounced on Blood Demon Axe Douluo.

"It's useless. Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"

Seeing this move by Ba Shan Douluo, disdain flashed in Blood Demon Douluo's eyes. He immediately raised his hand and waved a blood shadow.

This time, there were no more surprises. The terrifying Xueying directly split the Bashan Douluo into two parts, and the broken scarlet body pieces fell from the sky.

Seeing this scene, Tianling Douluo on the side widened his eyes and roared.

"Ba Shan!"

These two people are old rivals. A hundred years ago, the Spirit Hall had not yet exploded its own ambitions and played the role of the church, with no interest in territory. At that time, Tiandou and Xingluo, in the absence of external threats, attacked each other and the battles were equally fierce.

Tianling Douluo had fought with Bashan Douluo many times, and the hatred between the two sides was not small, but now, seeing the fall of Bashan Douluo with his own eyes, Tianling Douluo was not happy at all, but his heart was filled with sadness.

And, at the moment when Tianling Douluo was in a trance, Shadow Douluo finally seized the opportunity and attacked from behind. A shadow spear pierced into Tianling Douluo's back.

His body stiffened, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he staggered forward a few steps.

He knew that he was in the same desperate situation as Ba Shan Douluo before, and this time, he might not be able to turn back. He immediately had no more worries in his mind, raised his staff, and used up all his soul power to send a dazzling white beam of light towards Blood Demon Axe Douluo and Shadow Douluo.

Wherever the beam of light passed, a deep groove was plowed out on the ground. The powerful energy fluctuations forced Blood Devil Axe Douluo and Shadow Douluo to temporarily avoid the edge.

But this was ultimately Tianling Douluo's last gasp. With his soul power exhausted, his legs softened and he slowly fell to the ground, his eyes filled with unwillingness and despair.

At this point, Bashan Douluo and Tianling Douluo were both killed in the battle. The border passes of the two empires lost their most important protective force, and the defense line completely collapsed. Seeing this, the army of the Wuhun Empire cheered loudly and poured in from the torn gap like a surging black tide. They waved their weapons, and wherever they passed, blood flowed like a river and screams continued.

Although the defenders on the city wall fought desperately, they were defeated by the double attack of the spirit masters and soldiers of the Wuhun Empire, with countless casualties.

In the rear of the two empires, reinforcements came in a hurry, but they were one step too late. They looked at the breached pass, the smoke and corpses, their eyes were filled with grief and despair.
