Chapter 165 Despair
After Shi Yi released his most powerful soul skill, the plain in front of Jialing Pass was completely torn apart by the terrifying sword energy of Shi Yi and Chen Xin. Wherever the sword energy passed, the earth cracked, the grass and trees turned into powder, and even the air was cut into fine cracks, making a sharp scream.
The soldiers of the Heavenly Fighting who stood behind Chen Xin were all wiped out by the terrifying sword energy, and even a trace of blood had not been left behind, as if they had never existed. The soldiers of the Tiandou Empire looked at the bottomless crack in front of them, and recalled the comrades who disappeared in an instant, and endless fear and despair suddenly surged in their hearts. In the chaos of the army, many veterans who had been through battles put down their weapons, collapsed and fell to the ground.
"Is this really something that humans can do?" Such thoughts kept popping up in the minds of soldiers of the Tiandou Empire, and fear spread like a plague.
At the same time, Bibidong stood on the wall of Jialing Pass, staring at the battlefield with a cold look. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, she showed a sneer, and then issued an attack order: "To the Martial Soul Empire belongs to the Holy Dragon Legion, kill!"
When Snake Spear Douluo heard this, he raised the spear in his hand and shouted with anger: "Kill!" His voice was filled with the title Douluo's deep soul power, which resounded like thunder. The spirit master legion of the Martial Soul Empire instantly rose, and the misty light around the body and soul circles formed a circle, like a vast galaxy, catching the position of the Tiandou Empire.
On the Tiandou Empire, Marshal Ge Long's face turned pale and shouted sternly: "Pick up your weapons! Don't be messed up! Retreat!"
However, the defeat was like a mountain of defeat. The fall of Chen Xin and the devastating destruction of Shi Yi on the terrain have already lost all the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Tiandou Empire. When Ge Long's retreat was ordered, the soldiers immediately ran backward like frightened birds, rushing to escape, and the scene was in chaos.
"Run! If you don't run, you will be dead!"
"The soul masters of the Martial Soul Empire are so terrible. We are no match for us at all!"
The soldiers' shouts were filled with fear and despair, and the entire Tiandou Empire's military formation collapsed instantly.
The soul master legion of the Martial Soul Empire rushed towards the collapsed army of the Tiandou Empire like a tide. The light of the soul skill flashed on the battlefield, forming a dazzling light curtain. The soldiers of the Holy Dragon Legion went down the mountain like tigers, unstoppable. Wherever they passed, the soldiers of the Tiandou Empire fell one after another.
There is no doubt that ordinary soldiers at this time have no chance to escape. In terms of cultivation, they are far inferior to soul masters; in terms of equipment, they are not as good as cavalry. Facing the Soul Master Legion of the Martial Soul Empire, even well-trained cavalrymen could not escape the pursuit of masters.
Ning Fengzhi stood in the military formation of the Tiandou Empire and took a last look at Jialing Pass in the distance. His eyes were filled with deep fatigue and helplessness, and he already understood in his heart that the Tiandou Empire's active attack was doomed to end in failure. The supply line was cut off and the fall of Chen Xin all made the Tiandou Empire and the Seven Treasures Glazed Li Sect pay a heavy price.
In the military formation, Yu Xiaogang's eyes were extremely complicated. He hated Bibi Dong, hated her ruthlessness and coldness, but when he saw Shi Yi showing such a strong strength, he felt both hopeless and relieved in his heart. Desperately, the power of the Martial Soul Empire and Shi Yi far exceeded his imagination; gratitude was that Shi Yi's growth allowed him to see hope, although this hope had nothing to do with him now.
On the side of the Martial Soul Empire, it is as powerful as a rainbow. Led by up to six thousand soul masters, the Holy Dragon Legion rushed towards the position of the Tiandou Empire like a torrent of steel. The soul rings around the soul masters flashed, and the light of the soul skills intertwined on the battlefield to form a dazzling light curtain, as if they were about to crush all enemies.
On the Tiandou Empire, however, there was no momentum. The soldiers' faces were filled with fear and despair, and their formation quickly collapsed under the charge of the Martial Soul Empire. In the collision of the torrent of steel, human lives were harvested like grass by the god of death. Blood stained the earth red, and the wailing sounds and the shouts of killing were intertwined.
The role of soul masters in war is fully demonstrated at this moment. Especially the disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect who were rushing in the front, their martial soul, White Armored Earth Dragon, gave them powerful defense and destructive power. Facing ordinary soldiers, they were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, and almost instantly they tore a hole in the heavy cavalry legion of the Tiandou Empire. "Kill!" The disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect shouted in unison, and the soul skills in their hands poured out without mercy. The heavy cavalry's armor was torn apart like paper under their attack. The soldiers of the Tiandou Empire had not even had time to scream and fell into a pool of blood.
After abandoning most of the infantry and shooting with cavalry, the army of the Tiandou Empire finally retreated into the built camp in a mess. Although the number of people dropped sharply, the remaining soldiers were slightly relieved by the sudden ample supply. However, this comfort is nothing more than a brief tranquility before the storm.
Ge Long stood in front of the camp of the Tiandou Empire, staring at the battlefield with a cold look. His fists were clenched, and his knuckles turned white with force. Although he had long anticipated the cruelty of this war, the scene before him still made him feel powerless. "Send the order to keep going, the entire army will hold on to the camp and not be allowed to fight!" Ge Long's voice was filled with a hint of fatigue and determination. "Yes!" The general beside him bowed and replied, then conveyed the order.
However, Ge Long knew in his heart that sticking to the camp was just a temporary solution. Faced with the powerful offensive of the Wuhun Empire, the defense line of the Tiandou Empire has long been in danger.
With the defeat of the Tiandou Empire, the army of the Wuhun Empire completely occupied the battlefield. At Jialing Pass, the soldiers cheered and their morale was high. Bibidong stood on the city wall, staring at the battlefield coldly, his lips raised slightly, and a smile of relief appeared: "We won this battle."
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" Everyone around, each soldier, raised the weapons in his hands, cheering affectionately. Their voices resounded through the sky like thunder, shaking the walls of Jialing Pass as if they were trembling slightly.
This is a perfect victory. The Martial Soul Empire, which was already at a disadvantage in numbers, completely controlled the war with its powerful high-end soul master. The powerful strength of the Soul Master Legion was fully demonstrated in this battle, especially the disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect and the Wind Sword Sect, whose performance was amazing. Shi Yi almost turned the battle around with his own strength and completely defeated the morale of the Tiandou Empire.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the camp of the Tiandou Empire was heavy. Avalanche sat in the main tent with a blue face and his eyes full of despair and reluctance. His fists were clenched, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and even his nails were deeply embedded in the palm of his palm, oozing blood.
Not to mention ordinary soldiers of the Tiandou Empire, even the emperor, who saw the abyss created by the sword energy in front of Jialing Pass, could not help but torture himself in his heart - can this war really be won? The bottomless crack, like a natural chasm, lying in his heart, making him feel unprecedentedly powerless.
Ning Fengzhi stood aside, endured his grief, took a deep breath, and saw Avalanche’s inner struggle. He comforted softly: "Your Majesty, although we have been defeated in this battle, we are not without a chance. The power of the Martial Soul Empire is far beyond our expectations, but we still have the Seven Treasures Glazed Lilac Sect, the Tang Sect, and countless soul masters who are willing to fight for the Heavenly Fighting Empire."
After hearing this, Avalanche was silent for a long time, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself: "Senior Chen Xin is still inferior to Shi Yi under the amplitude of Sect Master Ning. The Tiandou Empire... can you find a soul master stronger than Chen Xin?" The feeling of powerlessness in his heart surged like a tide.
Ning Fengzhi did not say anything more, but just turned his gaze to Tang San on the side. His eyes had a deep meaning, as if he was silently conveying some message.
Avalanche followed Ning Fengzhi's gaze and suddenly realized it. At this time, Ge Long spoke at the right time, his tone was calm but with a hint of heaviness: "Your Majesty, although our army has suffered a new defeat, it still has the power to fight. The most important thing at the moment is to urge the Xingluo Empire to increase its offensive efforts to relieve the pressure on our side. The total resources of the two empires are still far from comparable to the Martial Soul Empire..." At this point, Ge Long sighed in his heart, and he did not say the last sentence - "Even if we cannot win, we can still seek peace by fighting." As an 89-level Conra, he knew more than anyone else what Shi Yi's strength represents. Even if the Martial Soul Empire is destroyed, Shi Yi may not necessarily die. Such an opponent is desperate. "Marson Ge Long said very well." Tang San nodded, his tone calm but firm.
Avalanche's eyes fell on Tang San, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes. He knew very well that Tang San was not only the leader of the Tang Sect, but also the son of Tang Hao, Haotian Douluo, with talents and potential that ordinary people could not reach. However, even so, Avalanche was still full of doubts. The strength shown by Shi Yi has long exceeded his cognitive scope. Even Tang San can really compete with Shi Yi? "Tang San, what do you think?" Avalanche finally spoke, with a hint of fatigue and expectation in his voice.
Tang San frowned slightly and looked into the distance with deep eyes. Shi Yi's terrifying sword energy appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help feeling a surge of pressure in his heart. However, his expression was still calm and his tone was calm: "Your Majesty, Shi Yi's strength is indeed strong, but as Marshal Ge Long said, he can only influence this battlefield. When the Wuhun Empire is attacked from both sides, time is on our side. Once the Xingluo Empire achieves results, we can find the flaws of the Wuhun Empire, which is also our chance to turn the tables."
"Fuse?" Avalokites raised his eyebrows, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.
Tang San nodded and continued, "Although the Soul Master Legion of the Martial Soul Empire is strong, their number of soul masters is limited after all. Especially for top-notch people like Shi Yi, the Martial Soul Empire cannot have too many. The teacher's idea is correct. As long as we can restrain their high-end combat power, we can use the resource advantages of the two empires to gradually turn the situation around."
"Retain Shi Yi?" A trace of light flashed deep in Avalanche's eyes, and he pretended to smile bitterly, "How easy is it? Senior Chen Xin has fallen. Who else can compete with Shi Yi?"
Tang San was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Your Majesty, maybe I can give it a try."
"You?" A trace of surprise flashed in Avalanche's eyes, and then became complicated again. He knew that Tang San was very strong, but the power displayed by Shi Yi had long surpassed the scope of ordinary titled Douluo. Although Tang San is talented, he has not officially entered the realm of titled Douluo. Can he really fight Shi Yi?
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi's voice sounded in the avalanche's ears, with a hint of comfort and firmness: "Your Majesty, the mistress has already begun to absorb soul bones before the war and attached a soul ring to the second martial soul. Now it is a title-sealed realm. The increase of the twin martial souls plus the Seven Treasure Glazed Tower is not impossible to restrain Shi Yi. The most important thing is that the assistance of Haotian Sect is on the way."

Tang San saw Avalanche's doubts and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have the confidence to deal with Shi Yi. In addition, I have some trump cards that have not been used, which may pose a certain threat to him. My father has also set off for Haotian Sect, and reinforcements are coming soon."
Avalanche was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, with a hint of determination in his tone: "Okay, since that's the case, I'll ask you."
Tang San nodded slightly, then turned around and left the camp. A trace of firmness flashed in his eyes, and he made up his mind to himself--no matter what, he had to stop Shi Yi. Otherwise, the Heavenly Dou Empire will have no more days to turn over. How can there be a complete egg after the collapse of the nest? What's more, his Tang sect will also be destroyed.
At the same time, Shi Yi was standing on the wall of Jialing Pass, staring at the Tiandou Empire Camp in the distance with a cold look. There was no joy on his face, but a hint of fatigue. Although he showed unparalleled power on the battlefield, such consumption also made him feel overwhelmed. In a short period of time, he could no longer launch such a terrifying attack.
"Xiao Yi, you did a good job." Bibi Dong's voice came from behind, with a hint of praise.
Shi Yi turned around and bowed slightly, "Aunt Dong, you're too much."
Bibidong nodded, and a deep meaning flashed in his eyes: "However, although the Tiandou Empire retreated, it did not completely collapse. Especially Tang San and Haotian Sect, they would never give up easily."
Shi Yi showed emotion on his face and said softly, "Yes."
Bibidong smiled slightly, with concern in his tone: "Get a good rest, your mission with Bing'er has been completed for the time being."
Shi Yi nodded gently, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes. He looked at Bibidong and whispered, "Aunt Dong, today I... saw the teacher in the military formation."
Bibidong was silent for a moment when he heard this, then said softly: "We cannot show mercy, Xiao Yi. Once the other party knows the weakness in your heart, it is not only you but your teacher who is dangerous."
"I know." Shi Yi's voice was low, with a hint of helplessness, "But I am worried that the teacher will do something irrational because of hatred."
Bibidong's eyes became deep, and there was a hint of determination in his tone: "He won't, before he succeeded in revenge..."
Bibidong did not finish speaking, but Shi Yi already knew the answer.
Shi Yi nodded, a trace of firmness flashed in his eyes: "I understand, Aunt Dong."
Bibidong patted his shoulder lightly, his tone softened a little: "Go and have a good rest. You still need to do your best in the next battle."
Shi Yi bowed and turned around and left.
