Douluo Continent: Starting by controlling the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult

Chapter 624, Finale, Part 45: United We Stand, Utterly Tragic

"That is..."

What came into view was a soul-guided mecha gleaming with a deep blue light, its overall design resembling a precise and cold mechanical masterpiece.

The main body of the armor is a deep blue-black, like a mysterious abyss of the universe, with a few striking gold stripes interspersed among them, just like dazzling shooting stars streaking across the night sky. This not only adds a touch of luxury, but also becomes a vein for the flow of energy in battle. Whenever energy surges, the stripes flash with dazzling light.

Its head is shaped like a beast poised to pounce, with sensors on both sides like agile animal ears, constantly capturing the surrounding movements; the single eye on its face emits a ghostly blue light, like a will-o'-the-wisp in the cold night, exuding endless intimidation.

Its shoulders are broad and sturdy, with massive, streamlined shoulder armor extending outwards. The surface is engraved with intricate core magic arrays, enhancing both defense and supporting powerful energy amplification arrays. The mech's arms are thick and strong, with retractable energy shields on the forearms to withstand fatal attacks in critical moments. The hands are ingeniously designed; the flexible mechanical fingers can not only precisely control various weapons but also unleash astonishing power when clenched into a fist.

The legs are the core of the armor's power system. The strong leg muscles are made of high-strength rare metals, and the thrusters on the back have a unique design, arranged in a pentagonal shape.

Yes, this mecha is the same one that Huo Yuhao took from the basement of Mingde Hall. Although it eventually returned to the hands of Jing Hongchen and Kong Deming, the Gundam design blueprints provided by Huo Yuhao inspired them to further develop it.

Over the years, Kong Deming led countless senior soul masters to study day and night, working tirelessly to produce it.

Finally, the first mecha in the Douluo Continent appeared thousands of years ahead of schedule! The Alliance named it the Demon King!

Without hesitation, Xiao Hongchen activated the Demon King, the thrusters on the back of his armor spewing out scorching flames, propelling him to quickly increase the distance between himself and the Star-Devouring Monster. Immediately afterward, his hands danced rapidly across the control panel, activating the powerful firepower of his soul-guided device.

Suddenly, several energy cannons popped out from the shoulders of the Demon King, their muzzles flashing with deadly light. Thick beams of energy roared out like angry dragons, shooting towards the Star-Devouring Monster with a world-destroying momentum.

The beam struck the monster's tentacles, instantly triggering a series of violent explosions. The Star-Devouring Monster also noticed the massive mech, its forelimbs flashing like black lightning as it lunged madly at Xiao Hongchen.

Xiao Hongchen remained calm and composed, maneuvering his battle armor nimbly through the air while constantly adjusting the angle of his cannon fire to suppress the tentacles with intense firepower.

In an instant, energy beams crisscrossed the battlefield, and explosions were deafening. Laughing Red Dust, relying on the powerful mobility and precise artillery control of his Soul-Guided Armor, repeatedly deflected the attacks of the Star-Devouring Monster.

Suddenly, the star-devouring monster opened its blood-red maw, emanating a powerful suction force that attempted to pull Xiao Hongchen inside. Xiao Hongchen's eyes sharpened, and he quickly mobilized all the energy of his battle armor, unleashing a full-scale barrage. Dozens of energy beams formed an impenetrable firepower net, forcefully blocking the suction force.

Xiao Hongchen decisively adjusted the artillery parameters, concentrating the energy of all cannons at maximum power. After a brief charge, an unprecedentedly massive energy beam erupted from the main turret of the battle armor, carrying unparalleled power, and shot straight towards the core of the Star-Devouring Monster that had been pierced by the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms.

hum-

Using the powerful firepower of the Demon King's ship, the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms penetrated even further, and the monster began to struggle frantically.

"Great!" The Allied forces cheered wildly upon seeing this.

No matter the world, Gundam will always be a unique kind of romance for men.

"Attack together!" Di Tian roared, and countless enormous soul beasts charged toward the Star-Devouring Monster without fear of death. They had only one goal: the monster's heart!

However, the prolonged, high-intensity battle gradually depleted the armor's energy, causing Xiao Hongchen's movements to slow down. The Star-Devouring Monster seized this opportunity, its tentacles suddenly wrapping around the armor. Xiao Hongchen struggled desperately, trying to break free, but the tentacles were too strong; he couldn't budge them.

Under the immense force, cracks began to appear on the outer shell of the armor. Then, with a "crack," the armor was torn to pieces, and Xiao Hongchen was also pulverized by this powerful force.

Upon seeing this, Ye Linlin's vision went black, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

"Brother!" Meng Hongchen gritted her teeth, tears streaming down her face.

"Strengthen control!" Ling Luochen reminded him; now was not the time for grief.

"It's our turn."

Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er exchanged a glance, then held hands, and the phantom of the Meteor Red Dragon quickly solidified between them.

"Let it see the realm beyond the limits of Martial Soul Fusion, the adjustment of the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart!" Ning Tian shouted, and the Yin-Yang complementary three soul cores began to spin at high speed.

"Limited Liberation, Highest Level—"

In an instant, Ning Tian's delicate body became ethereal, and the soul core within her body transformed into three shining points of light.

The meteor-red dragon phantoms formed by Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er soared into the sky, disintegrating into twenty soul rings of different colors, into which the three points of light formed by Ning Tian entered.

"Calibration initiated, all passed—"

Infinite power breaks down the barriers of time and space, opening up unknown territories—

The path of light connects the heavens and the earth; that dazzling starlight pierces through layers of halos, once again reaching the ultimate other shore—

The path of light gradually became winding and tortuous, connecting to the tail of the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms.

"You..." Zhong Liyu suddenly turned her head and exclaimed.

"Sister Yu'er, even gods can surpass the power of synchronized evolution. Defeat it, rip out its heart, and forge a new future!"

In an instant, the three different types of soul power merged together, and a dazzling light shot straight into the sky.

The light was so intense that it seemed to momentarily halt the surrounding darkness. Within the light, countless runes appeared to flicker—mysterious symbols created when the three martial soul powers fused together, intertwining and colliding…

As the light intensified, a deep dragon's roar echoed through the air, as if a call from ancient times. Then, a colossal phantom of a red dragon slowly emerged—the very red dragon they had once formed through perfect harmony to save the world.

The appearance of the Red Dragon, the savior of the world, caused the entire Douluo Continent to tremble. Its body was enormous; its head alone was the size of a small mountain.

Its scales shimmered with a reddish-gold light, its pupils were like two burning red suns, radiating intense light, and its eyes revealed endless majesty.

Its dragon horns were thick and sharp, curving upwards as if to pierce the sky. Lightning crackled on the horns, and occasionally bolts of lightning would shoot out from them, striking the surrounding darkness. Its whiskers swayed in the wind, each one like a nimble little snake, radiating a faint glow.

The dragon's wings, when unfurled, stretched hundreds of meters long, resembling two enormous clouds. The feathers on its wings shimmered with iridescent light, and with each flap, they unleashed a powerful hurricane, scattering the surrounding darkness. The edges of the wings gleamed with a sharp light, like blades capable of easily tearing apart anything that stood in its way.

The savior red dragon roared to the sky, its voice shaking the surrounding land. This roar contained boundless power, causing the earth to tremble and the darkness in the sky to sway precariously. It flapped its enormous wings and flew towards the star-devouring monster.

"This is... the Dragon Queen!" Di Tian suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with reminiscence.

At this moment, countless dragons and soul masters with dragon-type martial souls present were moved to tears. Even though they did not know the identity of this red dragon, the respect in their souls and bloodlines made them involuntarily lower their heads.

Sensing the threat of the Red Dragon, the Star-Devouring Monster let out a sharp roar, opening its blood-red maw in an attempt to devour it. Black smoke billowed from its mouth, filled with a putrid stench that made one want to vomit.

Just as the Red Dragon's claws were about to touch the Star-Devouring Monster, a strange purple halo suddenly appeared on the surface of the monster's body. Then, countless laser-like cosmic radiations shot out wildly from the gaps in its scales and the joints.

These cosmic radiations carried an aura of destruction; wherever they went, space seemed to be torn apart, emitting a "sizzling" sound.

The surrounding mountains were instantly reduced to dust by the radiation, and the earth was scorched with deep, bottomless ravines. The rocks at the edges of the ravines melted and solidified rapidly, forming bizarre crystals.

The light of radiation intertwined with the darkness, creating a distorted and terrifying scene.

Caught off guard by the sudden attack, the Red Dragon was struck by several beams of radiation that melted its scales instantly, revealing charred wounds that emitted a pungent, burnt smell. But it did not retreat; it flapped its injured wings forcefully, enduring the pain as it continued to advance.

"Not good!" Cui Yajie and Zhang Lexuan were shocked to see this. It seemed that even the Martial Soul Synchronization Technique that had once destroyed Ye Xishui's Martial Soul could not break through the terrifying radiation on the surface of the Star Devouring Monster.

The latest novel is first published here!

Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng, and Nanmen Yun'er gritted their teeth and desperately tried to stabilize their soul power, injecting more power into the Red Dragon that saves the world.

"I can't let my comrades down; I must defeat this monster!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, countless soul beasts pounced on the Star-Devouring Monster. Even though their bodies were destroyed by cosmic radiation in an instant, they did not stop their advance.

Their corpses were instantly frozen by Meng Hongchen and Ling Luochen's Martial Soul Synchronization Skill, Thousand Miles of Ice Seal, becoming stepping stones for subsequent Soul Beasts to advance.

The Star-Devouring Monster twisted its body violently, trying to fling the enormous soul beasts on its back off. The bodies of countless soul beasts crystallized and shattered in mid-air.

"Dragon God, if there is an afterlife, I, Di Tian, ​​wish to serve you again!"

Beast God Di Tian, ​​Bi Ji, Zi Ji, Xiong Jun, Chi Wang, and the Titan Snow Demon King and Ice Bear King of the far north, along with other ferocious beasts from the continent, all rushed forward recklessly, hoping to seize even the slightest chance—

Clang...

Even the Beast King, after holding out for a few seconds, turned into countless crystal fragments that scattered in all directions.

"We're here too!"

Nan Qiuqiu and her daughter Nan Shuishui manifested their martial spirit forms and flew towards the Star-Devouring Monster. In front of them was Yuzuriha Qiu holding Gungnir aloft.

The true form of the golden dragon then manifested, with Nan Qiuqiu and her daughter Nan Shuishui on either side. The true forms of the two crimson dragons vanished, transforming into four points of light. These were the resonant dual soul cores of Nan Qiuqiu and Nan Shuishui.

Dual core modulation!

"The golden dragon with an indomitable spirit will obtain the destructive divine status of the Dragon God; its surging and violent soul will awaken demons, unleashing a cry to create new realms!"

The ferocious Golden Dragon King descended upon Douluo Continent once again, but this time, it exuded an aura of annihilation.

Or it could be called the Annihilation of the Golden Dragon!

"This is...another way to synchronize martial spirits?" The allied soldiers were filled with shock. Huo Yuhao's companions had brought too many miracles to this continent...

The Annihilation Golden Dragon roared down upon the world, baring its fangs and claws as it descended upon the Star-Devouring Monster. Its invincible radiation was neutralized by the power of Annihilation, and the golden dragon's claws mercilessly ravaged the monster's shell.

The star-devouring monster seemed to sense the danger as well, frantically flailing its eight long legs in an attempt to evade the Annihilation Dragon's attacks. At the same time, it continuously spewed out cosmic radiation, trying to prevent the Savior Red Dragon from getting closer.

The savior red dragon circled in the air a few times, then adjusted its angle and swooped down like a golden meteor. Its claws gleamed coldly as it went straight for the monster's belly.

The Star-Devouring Monster swiftly swung its long legs, attempting to block the Savior Red Dragon's attack; however, its long legs were forcibly broken off by the Annihilation Golden Dragon.

Just as the Red Dragon's claws were about to touch the monster's belly, a thick, long leg lashed out at the Annihilation Dragon. The Annihilation Dragon was thrown off course by the blow, crashing into a mountain peak along with the Red Dragon. The mountain instantly collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

But the two colossal dragons did not give up. They rose from the ruins and flew once more towards the star-devouring monster. This time, they were faster and stronger!

The Red Dragon of Salvation flew above the Star-Devouring Monster, opened its enormous maw, and spewed forth a torrent of scorching flames. The flames surged towards the monster's belly like a flood. The Star-Devouring Monster tried to dodge, but the flames were too fast; it had no time to react.

The flames struck the monster's abdomen, instantly triggering a violent explosion. The monster let out a painful roar as a huge gash was blasted open in its abdomen, from which dark green slime flowed out, emitting a pungent odor.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Golden Dragon swooped down again, its claws gripping the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms and plunging it fiercely into the monster's chest.

The red dragon, transformed into a rainbow, swooped down, its claws aimed at the exposed heart.

With a agonizing roar, the heart of the Star-Devouring Monster was ripped out by the Red Dragon of Salvation. The heart pounded in the dragon's claws, emitting an eerie glow.

"Success!" The Allied forces cheered wildly upon seeing this.

With its heart removed, the star-devouring monster's body finally ceased movement, and the darkness in the sky gradually receded.

"Quickly, throw its heart into the ground!" Bibi Dong urged hastily.

Without the slightest hesitation, the golden dragon of annihilation swiftly swung its claws, tearing the earth apart, while the red dragon of salvation, holding the monster's heart, transformed into a red bridge leading straight to the earth...

How can the protagonist group achieve even a sliver of victory against a monster capable of destroying even the realm of gods, if they don't risk their lives in battle?
