Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 325 Bombing, Long-Standing Confidence (4K)

Heavenly Soul Plains.

A war that will be recorded in the history of the mainland for ten thousand years is underway.

The three kingdoms of Tianhun, Xingluo, Douling, and Sanguo have assembled an army of hundreds of thousands, which is now spread across this vibrant plain.

The plan to delay the Sun and Moon's offensive through small-scale wars was no longer feasible; continuing the stalemate would be a slow death for the three kingdoms.

Thus, the three kingdoms formed an allied army, preparing for a decisive battle that would determine the fate of the continent for ten thousand years, and ultimately decide the destiny of the sun and moon and the three kingdoms.

In the armies of the Three Kingdoms, titled experts served as commanders, Soul Douluo and high-ranking Soul Masters above the Soul Saint level formed the key reserve force, Soul Masters below the Soul Saint level served as the backbone of the army, and the other ordinary soldiers were like a huge number of ants, obeying the orders of these superiors.

After years of war, the Soul Master forces of the Three Kingdoms have been greatly depleted. It is extremely difficult to gather 10,000 Soul Masters from hundreds of thousands of troops, but it is still barely possible to gather several thousand Soul Masters by exhausting the national strength.

But this did not dampen the morale of the three kingdoms.

They cannot see, or rather, are unwilling to accurately estimate, the power of the sun and moon. Their outdated thinking leads them to still hold the ridiculous idea that more people means more power.

They naively believed that with such a large coalition army, even if they couldn't turn the tide of battle, they could at least delay the attack for several years, or even decades.

Given time, and if the stalemate continues, it will be an opportunity for them.

The Soul Technique, after all, is located within the territory of the Three Kingdoms and has a unique advantage for Soul Masters.

In the past, absorbing a spirit ring strengthened the spirit master himself, but ultimately it still relied on the spirit master's personal power. But now it's different.

The emergence of the Soul Spirit system means that once a Soul Master completes a contract with a Soul Beast, in addition to the improvement of their own strength, they will also possess the power of the Soul Spirit to assist in combat.

This is a life-saving antidote for the Three Kingdoms, which are now desperately lacking Soul Masters who can determine the outcome of battles.

Given ten years, no, just a few years, they can double their Soul Master power with the help of the Soul Spirit system. With Soul Spirits assisting in battle, their advantages will be maximized.

Correspondingly, the Soul Master system on the Sun and Moon side will be greatly impacted. After all, for Soul Masters, absorbing Soul Rings is to qualify themselves to research more powerful Soul Tools, and the role of Soul Spirits is not as significant as that of a pure Soul Master.

They still have hope.

Moreover, the Sun and Moon have encroached upon a large amount of territory of the Heavenly Soul and Star Luo kingdoms, but this has also made their rule unstable. In addition, Mingdu is having difficulty maintaining the supply lines of the five major legions. The longer this goes on, the more advantageous it will be for them.

Therefore, what they need to do now is not to rush to determine the victor of the Sun and Moon, but to delay the Sun and Moon's general offensive as much as possible and buy themselves time.

As time goes by, things will change, and as time goes by, they can find hope in the process.

Both Sun and Moon and the Three Kingdoms saw their future in the Soul System. The former saw that it would not be eliminated by this new system, while the latter saw the hope of integrating into this system and breaking the deadlock within it.

But it is clear that the Sun and Moon Kingdoms have no intention of wasting any more time with the Three Kingdoms.

The Three Kingdoms wanted to wear down the Sun and Moon, but the latter naturally realized that it could not afford to do so. In addition, Xu Tianran saw the threat posed by the Extreme Path Organization and was eager to sweep through the Three Kingdoms and then target the Extreme Path Organization. Therefore, they were also preparing to settle the matter in one battle.

At Xu Tianran's command, the five Soul Master Legions prepared to sweep through.

All the forces that the Imperial Dragon, Terror Claw, Evil Lord, Fire Phoenix, and infantry legions could muster were sent to the Heavenly Soul Plains.

But that's not enough. The two sides are already mismatched in strength. Even though every soldier in Sun Moon is equipped with a new type of soul-guided weapon that can be used without soul power, the scales are still not tipped enough.

Under Xu Tianran's orders, the Sun and Moon Royal Family urgently mobilized an air force that had been kept hidden and considered a top secret.

That's right, it's the soul-guided aircraft that was hidden away by Sun and Moon and never used in the war.

With years of research and development, soul-guided aircraft can now be mass-produced and used as soul-guided weapons.

However, because it consumed a massive amount of metal resources, the entire nation of Sun and Moon poured countless resources into it, and only managed to produce about two hundred of them.

The Soul Guidance Aircraft incorporates the most advanced Soul Guidance technologies developed by Sun Moon in recent years, including the integration of Mingde Hall's bionic Soul Guidance technology and humanoid Soul Guidance devices. It even utilizes devastating fixed-position Soul Guidance Bomb technology, solving the shortcoming of Soul Power storage.

It can be said that, without air missile defense and deployment on the Three Kingdoms side, the two hundred soul-guided aircraft on the Sun Moon side can be considered as having added two hundred flying titled Douluo to their ranks.

Imagine this: a flock of winged 'monster birds' flying recklessly overhead, arrogantly dropping soul-guided bombs downwards, while your side has no countermeasures whatsoever. It's like an attack from another dimension.

They could even break through the defenses and launch a targeted attack on Tian Dou City, the headquarters of the three kingdoms and the core of their armies.

Then, an outrageous and bizarre scene unfolded.

Outside Tiandou City, the forces of both sides were locked in a standoff on the Tiandou Plain. Both sides seemed confident and were in no hurry to attack.

In this atmosphere, a flock of giant steel birds suddenly appeared in the camp of the Sun and Moon faction, flying towards the Three Kingdoms like locusts in the sky.

The panicked army had no time to react, nor did they know how to respond. They could only watch helplessly as it hovered overhead, then split into two groups. One group began bombing the army's command posts, while the other flew into Tiandou City, hovering above the city before finally attacking the Tiandou Imperial Palace.

"what!!"

Hundreds of thousands of troops were bombed, and bombs were dropped on almost every command center. Not to mention that ordinary soldiers had no way to resist, even high-level soul masters had no way to defend themselves and could only do their best to avoid the falling bombs.

They couldn't believe that, even though they had already distanced themselves from the Sun Moon Soul Master Legion and were trying their best to avoid being attacked by those Soul Guidance Bombs, this still happened.

Fear, despair, and all sorts of emotions began to spread. They could do nothing but passively accept what was happening.

All the top experts, except for a few in the army, were gathered in Heaven Dou City and obviously did not have time to leave the city to deal with the situation here.

Even those titled powerhouses still in the army at this moment, when they reacted and prepared to attack the planes in the air, couldn't even touch them.

These soul-guided aircraft possessed speeds nearly exceeding twice the speed of sound, and upon encountering those titled powerhouses, they didn't bother with them for long.

They would attack and then run away, continuing to drop soul-guided bombs on other areas.

Tiandou City.

Countless civilians and soldiers were thrown into panic. They had never seen anything like it before. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, many would have thought it was some kind of flying spirit beast that had invaded them.

More than a hundred planes circled above Tiandou City, their oppressive aura no less than that of any titled-level powerhouse.

"boom!"

"Send out all the Title Douluos! All of them!!"

Seeing that the bombs from these soul-guided aircraft were about to fall, Emperor Wei Hao of the Heavenly Soul Empire no longer cared about hiding his strength.

If we don't take action soon, our own base will be blown to rubble by those damned, never-before-seen soul tools from Sun and Moon.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The titled officials dared not delay and immediately used their strongest methods to try to stop the soul tools flying in the sky, so as to avoid causing irreparable damage to this side.

"How could this be? Why did this happen?"

Wei Hao found it hard to accept this fact; people can never imagine things they have never seen.

In the past, if anyone had told him that soul tools could be made into gigantic flying objects and then soar through the sky carrying soul-guided bombs, he would have ruthlessly driven them out of the empire.

But now, all these scenes show that the capabilities of soul tools and what they can do have exceeded their imagination.

Hundreds of soul-guided weapons capable of contending with titled powerhouses—and they couldn't even mount a decent defense against them. No wonder the Sun Moon Soul Master Legion wasn't in a hurry to attack; that's the real reason.

He could already foresee the extent of the damage these soul-guided aircraft would inflict on the armies of the three kingdoms once they returned with news of victory.

This is no longer a matter of unequal power; it's an overwhelming defeat from another dimension.

"no!"

He stood up abruptly, realizing that he absolutely could not stand by and watch things continue like this.

These things come and go freely, and the armies of the Three Kingdoms and those titled Douluo are simply unable to restrain them; they can only passively take the beating.

They were unaware of how many soul-guided bombs the Sun and Moon forces had equipped these flying soul-guided devices with.

Losing is acceptable, but it's absolutely unacceptable to feel so humiliated, letting the sun and moon destroy your will with these things.

The previously established strategy of trading space and manpower for time is no longer feasible, and he must make alternative arrangements.

And that was indeed the case. After the group of titled warriors from the Three Kingdoms went to destroy those soul-guided aircraft, the latter did not engage in a direct confrontation with these guys. Instead, they used their overwhelming maneuverability to drop soul-guided bombs and then flew away again.

The powerful figures from the Three Kingdoms region, despite their best efforts, managed to leave behind only three soul-guided aircraft.

When the group of titled powerhouses entered the Heavenly Soul Imperial Palace with one of the relatively well-preserved soul-guided aircraft, many people's expressions were not good.

imitate?

Putting aside the fact that they don't have the same level of soul tools as the Sun and Moon side, the current situation and time are simply not enough for them to replicate it.

Until now, many people have finally woken up from their dream of the supreme power of Soul Masters. The Soul Guidance Aircraft has completely shattered their illusion that their own strength is the foundation of everything.

This is an open conspiracy, a complete declaration of power. The Sun and Moon clearly know that they are helpless against this and have no way to break it, which is why they are so openly and directly using this thing to attack them.

On the Three Kingdoms side, everyone's expressions grew increasingly silent.

Before the final battle even began, the Sun and Moon forces gave them a taste of their own medicine.

They could already foresee that if they didn't deal with these flying soul tools, even if they started a major battle right now, these things would still tie up most of their strength, and they could move freely to carry out pinpoint strikes against the formation.

This is a catastrophic threat and must be eliminated.

Soon, news arrived from the allied forces camp outside the city.

In this sudden bombing, they lost more than 10,000 soldiers, and their core force, the Soul Masters, suffered nearly 1,000 deaths.

A thousand Soul Masters! They had never deployed so many Soul Masters on the border before. Many of them were heartbroken.

As for the Sun and Moon, their losses were only three flying soul tools and some mass-producible soul bombs.

"Damn it!"

Many people started to criticize and condemn, but to no avail, and ultimately no practical solution was reached.

After everyone left, Princess Xu Jiujiu, who represented the will of the Star Luo Alliance, walked to the side of Emperor Wei Hao, while Vina comforted her father.

After mobilizing most of the military forces within Xingluo City, Xu Jiawei was still in Xingluo City, engaging in a final standoff with a portion of the infantry legion separated from the Sun and Moon Army. After all, as the capital of a nation, they had to put up a last-ditch resistance and let the outside world see their determination to resist.

"Your Majesty, the flying soul tool army that Sun Moon has suddenly dispatched this time poses a great threat to our side. We can no longer sit idly by and wait for our demise."

Xu Jiujiu had an idea, but he needed the support of Wei Hao, the emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire and also the supreme commander of the allied forces.

"Tell me your thoughts."

Wei Hao was now like a fish in a dried-up pond, desperately needing to find someone who could break his doomed situation.

She dared not delay for a long time, knowing that the losses this time were too great for the allied forces.

If we let it go unchecked, and it happens a few more times, then there's no need for a final battle; they can just lay down their necks and wait to die.

"Your Majesty, I need your support. Please mobilize the high-ranking Soul Masters and above in the Allied Forces to form a secret force, which I will lead, to secretly sabotage the flying Soul Guidance Devices of the Sun and Moon."

"I am willing to pledge my life to eliminate the threat of these flying soul tools for our three kingdoms this time, even at the risk of certain death."

She's here, she's here! This princess of the Star Luo Empire, with her confidence, has put forward her earth-shattering plan.

"How sure are you?"

These are not ordinary soldiers who can be discarded at any time. The loss of even one high-level Soul Master is heartbreaking for the Three Kingdoms in the present day.

"Eighty percent!"

Xu Jiujiu was very confident.

In her view, although the Sun and Moon's soul tools were powerful, such elusive flying soul tools could not stay in the sky forever.

As long as those flying soul tools land, that will be an opportunity.

The Sun and Moon forces simply did not have enough power to stop them from doing so.

She could certainly lead the assembled team of high-level soul masters to accurately destroy those flying soul tools.

Weihao and his daughter Vina have been inspired by Xu Jiujiu's confidence.

"Alright, I trust you."

And so, a plan that shook heaven and earth was completed in a perfectly logical manner.
