Douluo Continent: Dragon's Journey Across the World

Faced with the Ghost Douluo wreaking havoc on the battlefield, Sword Douluo gritted his teeth, wanting to confront him personally.

After all, in terms of strength, Sword Douluo was once level 97. Even if he was injured, with the extreme speed of sword control and Ning Fengzhi's assistance, he might be able to hold them back a little.

Ning Fengzhi shook his head slightly. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had already lost a lot of people in the war, and even killed the Porcupine Douluo, which was already a great contribution.

If Sword Douluo were to face Ghost Douluo alone, there is a high chance he would never return, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School cannot afford such a loss.

In the end, Tang Zhan had no choice but to chase Ghost Douluo across the entire battlefield, but unfortunately, the effect was not ideal.

Although Tang San's plan to attack Chrysanthemum Douluo failed, he also demonstrated extremely terrifying combat power. He was not only able to face Bibi Dong head-on, but also occasionally launched surprise attacks on the Title Douluo of the Spirit Empire.

……

The Battle of Jiayuguan lasted a full day and night, and it seemed like a sea of ​​blood everywhere. Countless people were killed or wounded, and even many titled Douluo perished.

On the side of the two empires, not only did they lose nearly a million ordinary soldiers, but they also lost a lot of soul masters. Even two titled Douluo were lost: an elder of the Clear Sky Sect and Meng Shenji, a guest elder of the Heaven Dou Empire.

In contrast, the Martial Soul Empire suffered even greater losses, losing nearly half of its two million troops and more than 700,000 people on the battlefield.

The original Soul Master Legion of about 65,000 people lost 2,000 to 5,000 people. They were basically worn down by the army or killed by the Title Douluo experts from both sides, especially Tang Zhan, Tang San and Sword Douluo.

The losses among Title Douluo were even more severe, with four members—Porcupine Douluo, Huyan Zhen, Kui Niu Douluo, and Demon Bear Douluo—dying in battle, and countless high-level Soul Masters also perishing.

The ground of the entire Jialing Pass battlefield seemed to be covered with a thick layer of blood, with corpses piled up everywhere and ruins everywhere, resembling a living hell.

Among the four Title Douluo lost by the Spirit Empire, Kui Niu Douluo was also ambushed by Tang San and then killed in one blow with a divine weapon. His entire body was cut in half by the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, which was extremely tragic.

Demon Bear Douluo was originally fighting against Star Luo Emperor and Empress, but Sword Douluo suddenly attacked. Even though he was a Title Douluo, he was exhausted from dealing with him. In the end, his entire body was smashed into pieces by the giant Netherworld White Tiger, and even his corpse could not be preserved.

The Third Elder of the Haotian Sect was personally killed by Bibi Dong, which may have involved a sneak attack, or he was killed by Bibi Dong, Tuoba hope, and Ghost Douluo together.

Seeing that the battle was becoming increasingly unfavorable for the Spirit Empire, Bibi Dong realized that if the fighting continued like this, most of the Spirit Empire's Title Douluos would probably be killed, so she had no choice but to retreat.

In this war, the entire Jialing Pass was breached. Bibi Dong led the remaining Soul Masters and troops to retreat towards Wuhun City. If they could preserve their strength and return to Wuhun City, they might still have a chance. However, if they fought to the death at Jialing Pass, even her own safety might not be guaranteed.

The Battle of Jialing Pass can be considered a major turning point for the Martial Soul Empire.

Originally, Bibi Dong led the Spirit Empire's Soul Master Legion, along with the nine elders and seven sects, and was virtually invincible. In just a few years, she occupied more than one-third of the continent's territory, and even the two great empires dared not contend with her.

However, the Battle of Jialing Pass can be described as a Waterloo for the Spirit Empire. The army and spirit masters suffered extremely heavy losses, especially the loss of four titled Douluo. It should be noted that the Spirit Empire has only lost one titled Douluo in the past thirty years, Qian Xunji. This is the only time in the past thirty years that the Spirit Empire has lost a titled Douluo.

Moreover, this was only a battle to defend the city. The Martial Soul Empire possessed the Jialing Pass, a formidable pass that was rare in the world, as well as a moat and various traps and mechanisms. Although the ordinary soldiers suffered losses of one to two.

However, the loss of more than 25,000 Soul Masters is of immeasurable value, accounting for nearly 40% of the total number of Soul Masters. It should be noted that training 20,000 Soul Masters is much more difficult than training a million-strong army. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had been operating for countless years, but at its peak, it only had 5,000 Soul Masters. Even the two great empires did not have 20,000 Soul Masters, not to mention that many of them were high-level Soul Masters.

Compared to the Spirit Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire suffered even greater losses of Soul Masters, with the losses exceeding 50%. In other words, the two great empires originally had only about 12,000 to 13,000 Soul Masters, but this time they directly lost more than 6,000 Soul Masters.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School suffered relatively few losses because it mainly consisted of support characters, while the Clear Sky School suffered relatively few losses because its Soul Masters were of relatively high quality and its combat power was very strong.

Even so, the Soul Masters sent to the battlefield by the Clear Sky Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect suffered losses of more than 30%.

The greater losses were suffered by the Soul Masters trained by the Empire, or those recruited from various advanced Soul Master academies and commoner Soul Masters. These Soul Masters had relatively poor combat experience and low strength, making them more vulnerable to casualties on the battlefield.

In other words, after this war, the three great empires lost more than 31,000 Soul Masters, which is basically 30% of the total number of Soul Masters in the entire Douluo World, demonstrating the ferocity and severity of the battle.

Of the six Title Douluos who were lost, apart from the Third Elder of the Clear Sky Sect, the other five were all completely devoured by Tang San using the Blood Red Blue Silver Grass, and their bodies were not preserved.

After the war ended, the Spirit Empire, led by Bibi Dong, quickly retreated to Spirit City. Due to their large number of spirit masters, their retreat was extremely fast, and even the two great empires could not pursue them.

Ultimately, both empires still possessed an army of over three million, all of whom crossed the Jialing Pass and stationed themselves ten kilometers north of it, both to rest and to prepare for the next phase of the war.

After all, this war was too brutal. Even the remaining Soul Masters were almost all wounded, not to mention the ordinary soldiers who were exhausted after a day and a night of fighting and had injuries that required rest.

Throughout the Jialing Pass, after the two empires collected some of their own corpses, everyone else withdrew ten kilometers away from the pass, and both empires strictly forbade anyone to approach it.

At the highest point of the Jialing Pass city wall, Tang San sat alone, cross-legged.

In this battle at Jialing Pass, Tang San was the only one who gained anything. Because he devoured the corpses of five Title Douluos, even their flesh and souls, Tang San's strength has increased significantly. He has now reached the peak of level 98 and is very close to level 99.

Because of his inheritance from the Rakshasa God, and the fact that Tang San also possesses the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass seems to have been transformed by the Rakshasa God's power, giving it an infinitely evil aura. It was even able to devour corpses without showing any side effects.

At this moment, Tang San was at the highest point in the city, his eyes closed, seemingly wanting to break through to level ninety-nine as soon as possible.

After all, even if Bibi Dong was injured, Tang San could only manage a draw with her, since theoretically, level 99 and level 98 are an insurmountable gap.

If Tang San hadn't possessed the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, he probably wouldn't have been a match for Bibi Dong at all. This wasn't simply a matter of the power of his soul skills, but rather a matter of the level of his soul power.

It's important to know that, theoretically speaking, it would take a full six hundred years of non-stop cultivation to go from level ninety-eight to level ninety-nine. This is one of the reasons why level ninety-nine Limit Douluo are extremely rare on the Douluo Continent.

As Tang San closed his eyes, the blood-red Blue Silver Grass on his body seemed to gradually spread, stretching out in all directions like tentacles, eventually enveloping the entire Jialing Pass and even the entire battlefield surrounding it.

The blood-red blue silver grass seemed to emanate an infinite devouring power, and the blood and aura on the battlefield seemed to be devoured at an extremely fast speed, even the bloody smell in the air was being rapidly devoured.

Instead, a black aura emanated from it, as if it were the most evil thing in the world.

After a normal person dies, their soul disappears quickly. Especially after the establishment of the underworld, the soul will quickly enter the underworld and eventually pass through the Naihe Bridge, the River Styx, and the eighteen levels of hell before being processed, forming a huge cycle of reincarnation.

But the battlefield at Jialing Pass seemed a bit abnormal. Because so many people had died, countless souls and resentment seemed to permeate the entire battlefield, and the whole sky seemed to be stained red with the scent of blood.

Tang San's Crimson Blue Silver Grass can not only absorb flesh and blood, but also devour souls. These souls gradually enter Tang San's body through the Blue Silver Grass, eventually forming the purest and most evil power.

According to Tang San's plan, he must reach level 99 as soon as possible. Only when he reaches level 99 will he have the strength and qualifications to truly challenge Wuhun City. Otherwise, he will not be able to face Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu at the same time, not to mention that it is the place of the Angel God's inheritance, which has a natural suppressive effect on Tang San's Rakshasa God power.

Ten days later, all the bloody stench in the entire Jialing Pass was completely swallowed up, and even the red mist that filled the sky was completely absorbed, as if no war had ever happened.

At this moment, Tang San's aura seemed to reach its peak, especially the Rakshasa Demon Scythe beside him, which seemed to resonate with him faintly, and the two auras became more and more similar.

Tang San seemed to have reached a bottleneck, and his power burst forth instantly. This power seemed capable of destroying the world, and even Tang San's soul power, muscles, bones, and soul underwent a transformation.

At level 99, Tang San finally broke through from level 98 to level 99 by absorbing the entire battlefield, thus becoming a brand new Limit Douluo.

Especially when Tang San held the Rakshasa Demon Scythe again, he seemed to become one with the Rakshasa Demon Scythe.

At this moment, Tang San seemed to be full of confidence, and even couldn't help but let out a roar.

If Tang San previously only harbored the hope of revenge, at this moment he seems to see the dawn of revenge, not only for Xiao Wu, but also for his parents.

Tang San is now very confident. His soul power has reached level 99, and he also has the Rakshasa Demon Scythe. He is absolutely confident that he can even go to Wuhun City.

Especially since Tang San still had his last trump card, the method to godhood that Rakshasa God had told him. Once he reached Spirit City, and the three great empires launched their final battle, that day would undoubtedly be the day he became a god. (End of Chapter)
