I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

The days of war came so suddenly and unexpectedly.

To be honest, many people had already anticipated that the Holy Spirit Empire would not abide by its previous oath and launch an attack.

The credibility of evil spirit masters is still very low. Even if some powerful ones keep their promises due to their arrogance, they will still play word games and exploit loopholes.

What's puzzling is how the Holy Spirit Empire officially recruited so many new evil spirit masters into its army? You have to understand that many of these new evil spirit masters are novices, and two years, or even the originally planned three years, is not enough time for them to grow.

Is it planning to rely on the power of the abyssal creatures? Although the Holy Spirit Empire and the abyssal creatures are allies, they will inevitably be wary of each other and will definitely not put all their chips on the aid of the abyssal creatures.

The answer to this question was found when the Holy Spirit Empire launched its formal attack: they had allies other than the abyssal creatures.

Instead of attacking the nearest Star Luo Empire as planned, the Holy Spirit Empire took a sea route to the North Sea and then led its army to attack the Heavenly Soul Empire.

If it were just an attack from the Holy Spirit Empire's army, the Heavenly Soul Empire, even if caught off guard, wouldn't face too many difficulties, since they had the original form of Douluo Du Busi, whose strength had already broken through to the Limit Douluo level, stationed there.

However, the Holy Spirit Empire's army consisted not only of evil spirit masters, but also a large army of sea spirit beasts. It was with the help of these sea spirit beasts that they were able to reach the coastal cities of the Heavenly Soul Empire at the fastest speed and with the least amount of resources.

This sea spirit beast army is mainly composed of sea spirit beasts like the Demon Orca, which hate the first Sea God. Leading this sea spirit beast army is a deep-sea demon whale whose cultivation level is close to a million years.

This is the Demon Emperor who appeared in the Legend of the Dragon King ten thousand years later in the original work. She is the wife of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King who was killed by Tang San ten thousand years ago.

In the original story, she went mad because of the loss of her husband and her hatred for Tang San. In order to gain the power of revenge, she did not hesitate to join forces with the Holy Spirit Cult and become their Demon Emperor. She also killed the Great White Shark Clan, the most loyal followers of the first Sea God.

Ultimately, under the Holy Spirit Cult's array where countless lives and wronged souls were sacrificed, the Demon Emperor broke through the limitations of the plane and became a level 100 True God. Unfortunately, he was ultimately defeated by Tang Wulin from the original work, and his body was later devoured by the Abyss Saint King as a vessel.

The current Demon Emperor has not yet reached the level of a level 100 True God, but in terms of cultivation, she is already almost on par with her husband from ten thousand years ago. As long as the battlefield is the sea, and as long as the Sea God does not appear, almost no one can contend with her.

Poison Undying could deeply understand this. When the Heavenly Soul Empire's sea area was attacked, he immediately used his spatial power to reach the scene to see who dared to attack their Heavenly Soul Empire.

As a result, once the Demon Emperor appeared, Du Bu Si could only rely on her powerful physique and her innate poison to hold her back. If she tried to attack, she would only be the one getting hit.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Soul Empire was not defeated immediately by this sudden attack.

It was thanks to the mechs and mass-produced battle armor provided by the Spirit Tower that the Heavenly Souls were not defeated immediately.

Even so, some important coastal cities in the Heavenly Soul Empire were still occupied by the Holy Spirit Empire.

Therefore, after the battle, Tianhun immediately sought support from the other two countries, Shrek Academy, and Qiling Tower through the established alliance, and requested permission to withdraw the troops they had dispatched to Xingluo.

In response to Tianhun's request, Xu Xingyu, as the leader of the alliance, agreed to provide support, but did not agree to the request to withdraw their troops from Xingluo.

This is because Xu Xingyu knew that the Holy Spirit Empire's attack was more of a feint, since their main force attacking the Heavenly Soul Empire was composed of sea spirit beasts.

Even excluding the Demon Emperor, a pseudo-god-level powerhouse, these sea spirit beasts have a large number of 100,000-year-old spirit beasts and ferocious beasts as their backing.

With such formidable military support, why hasn't the Holy Spirit Empire been able to conquer the Heavenly Soul Empire yet? The answer is simple: the Sea Soul Beasts were both its strength and its weakness.

The power of sea spirit beasts is indeed excellent, but all sea spirit beasts have a fatal flaw: their combat power cannot be separated from the ocean. Once they leave the water, their combat power will drop sharply.

Some 100,000-year-old soul beasts can't even unleash their full combat power as a Title Douluo once they're on land.

Only a rare number of sea spirit beasts, whether they are found on land or in water, or those that have taken human form, do not have this concern.

This has resulted in the Holy Spirit Empire's attacks on the Heavenly Soul Empire remaining confined to coastal cities, without any further offensive. Xu Xingyu even suspects that the Heavenly Soul Empire's ability to remain undefeated for so long is largely due to the Holy Spirit Empire's lack of intention to conquer it; at this stage, it's merely putting on a show.

Therefore, Xu Xingyu did not dare to provide too much support to the Heavenly Soul Empire. At most, he allowed a portion of the Heavenly Soul troops to return to Heavenly Soul to provide support, and then let Xu Yanxue coordinate the personnel of the Spirit Tower in the far north and the Soul Beasts to assist the Heavenly Soul Empire in its war.

After all, the Holy Spirit Empire's attack route this time went through the Ice Sea, which is extremely close to the far north. Therefore, it was just right to send Xu Yanxue, the successor of the Ice God and the former ruler of the far north, to command the soul beasts and the Spirit Pagoda personnel there.

At most, the Ice Emperor needs to remain in the far north to prevent the Holy Spirit Empire from taking the route through the far north to launch a sneak attack on Heavenly Soul or Fighting Spirit.

After learning of the Demon Emperor's existence, Wang Dong'er and Bai Xiuxiu also applied to Xu Xingyu to go to the Heavenly Soul Empire to help him.

Bai Xiuxiu's main reason for her status is the feud between her races. Although she has transformed from a Demon Soul Great White Shark into the new Ice Dragon King by accepting the power of the Water Dragon King (also known as the Ice Dragon King), she is still ultimately of the Demon Soul Great White Shark race.

Therefore, upon learning that the Demon Emperor, a Deep Sea Demon Whale with nearly a million years of cultivation following the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, knew that she had to kill him at all costs during this battle.

Because given the chance, this Demon Emperor would never let go of her family on Seagod Island. In fact, that's exactly what he did in the original story, which made Bai Xiuxiu the Demon Soul Great White Shark who helped her advance to Douluo level.

Wang Dong'er's reasons were much more complicated. She knew from Xu Xingyu about the hatred between the Demon Emperor and her father, Tang San, so she knew that the Demon Emperor's descent into madness was all her father's fault.

Although she hated having Tang San's blood in her veins, as his bloodline successor and the future new Sea God, she had an obligation to stand up, bear this hatred and responsibility, and then bring it to a close.

Xu Xingyu knew that the two women had given up on each other, so she agreed to their request to follow Xu Yanxue to support the Heavenly Soul Empire.

After Xu Xingyu arranged support for the Heavenly Soul Empire, something expected finally happened: Holy Spirit Emperor Huo Yuhao led his army to start another war with the Star Luo army in the Mingdu Mountains.
