Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 368: Being Backward Invites Aggression

Jin Peng's opponent was Xuan Zi. Although he was now at level ninety-seven and possessed a Gold-level Martial Soul, the one-level difference between him and Xuan Zi still made things difficult.

Xuan Zi repelled Jin Peng with one move. Just as he was about to press his advantage, the main cannon of one of the Heavenly Court's battleships fired, sending a streak of orange-red light directly at Xuan Zi.

Xuan Zi easily dispersed the streak of light, but his expression became extremely grave. Having experienced it firsthand, he realized that the attack power of this light had reached the level of a Titled Douluo.

Had the Heavenly Court's Soul Guidance Device technology developed to this extent?

Today, they could contend against Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo. In a few years or a dozen years, wouldn't even Super Douluo have to retreat?

Xuan Zi didn't dare to think further. A chill rose in his heart. All along, these old antiques had looked down on Soul Guidance Devices, considering them unorthodox and insignificant trinkets.

Today was the first time he had witnessed the terrifying power of Soul Guidance Devices, especially when used in war.

Just like now, the Heavenly Court's Soul Guidance Device army was almost unilaterally slaughtering the Shrek side's Soul Masters. Soul Guidance rays weaved into a dense net of firepower, making it difficult to penetrate.

This wasn't war; it was slaughter. It was like a modern army with assault rifles conducting a dimensional strike against indigenous troops still using cold weapons.

With the battle situation steadily advancing, the Heavenly Court's Soul Guidance Device army in the rear began to target the Shrek side's high-level Soul Masters.

The first to suffer was a Soul Douluo powerhouse possessing the Vajra Bear Martial Soul.

This person was evenly matched with a Soul Douluo from the Body Sect, neither side gaining a clear advantage. Both were injured, and the situation was somewhat deadlocked.

However, at this moment, a twenty-man squad from the Soul Guidance Device army targeted the Vajra Bear Soul Master. The captain said in a deep voice, "Focus fire!"

Swish!

Twenty Soul Guidance ray guns instantly aimed at the Vajra Bear Soul Master. Immediately afterward, all twenty people pulled the trigger simultaneously, and flames spewed from the muzzles.

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta…

Martial Soul Avatar!

The targeted Soul Master also sensed the danger and instantly activated his Martial Soul Avatar, transforming into a fat giant bear.

The Soul Guidance rays struck the fat bear, tearing shallow wounds across its body, but didn't instantly reverse the situation.

The Body Sect's Soul Douluo was overjoyed and intensified his attacks, forcing the fat bear into a steady retreat.

Similar scenes played out in more than one location. The Soul Guidance Device army, in units of twenty or thirty, began to interfere in the battles of some high-level powerhouses. One Soul Saint didn't even have time to activate his Martial Soul Avatar before being riddled with nearly thirty Soul Guidance rays.

At this moment, the huddled-together Soul Guidance Device Masters inspired fear.

Some high-level powerhouses wanted to charge into the Soul Guidance Device army and defeat them one by one, but the Heavenly Court's powerhouses weren't fools and tenaciously entangled them, preventing them from ruining their plans.

Just as the Soul Guidance Device army was frantically slaughtering the enemy, a large group of people wearing Shrek Academy uniforms ran over from the direction of the teaching building.

A young man at the head shouted, "Students, charge! Kill them!"

"Kill them!"

…

A group of so-called idealistic youths recklessly provoked the Heavenly Court's Soul Guidance Device army. What awaited them was a row of fiery muzzles.

"Ura!" A grassland Soul Master shouted, leading the charge against Shrek's top students.

Ta-ta-ta…

Dense rays swept across, and Shrek's noble geniuses fell into pools of blood.

Shrek Academy had now become a purgatory. The screams of the noble Soul Master adults were endless. Shrek and the Soul Masters of the major sects fell like dominoes, row after row.

A scene that had once occurred in the Heavenly Court was now replaying, but this time the sides were reversed. Shrek had become the one being beaten, and this time it was even more tragic.

The Shrek side's mid- and low-level battle situation was in a state of complete collapse.

The top-tier experts' exchanges, however, were somewhat entangled, but overall, the Shrek side had a slight advantage.

At this moment, ten thousand meters in the air, above the clouds, the battle between the two sides' God-level powerhouses was about to be decided.

Where the Snow Empress was, snowflakes fluttered in the space. She held an ice crystal longsword, appearing to be handling the situation with ease.

Opposite her was a creature that resembled both an ape and a chimpanzee. Except for a pair of eyes as large as lanterns, which gleamed with amber-like light, its entire body was pitch black.

Not only was its body huge, but every part of its body was covered with muscles even more terrifying and robust than granite, bulging like small hills.

The great ape pounded its chest, its aura violent. A khaki-colored halo rose around it as it charged fearlessly towards the Snow Empress. Its huge fist blasted forward, and a khaki-colored beam of light shot straight at the Snow Empress like a laser cannon.

Titan Sky-Rending Cannon! It was the signature move of the Titan Giant Ape.

Emperor Sword, Ice Extremity Peerless!

The Snow Empress remained calm and unhurried, repelling the Titan Giant Ape with a single sword strike. Both she and Huo Yuhao could freely expend divine power, unleashing powerful moves at will.

The Snow Empress wasn't in a hurry. The reason this big monkey was going berserk was because its elder brother was about to be unable to hold on.

Not far away, Niu Tian was in very bad shape. The giant beast transformed into the Azure Sky Bull Python showed no signs of injury on the surface, but only Niu Tian himself knew his condition.

His lantern-sized bull eyes were filled with dread as he looked at Huo Yuhao, who was wearing a black robe and had a indifferent expression.

Niu Tian hadn't expected that in just one year, the other party had become so terrifying. He had mastered some power of time and originally thought he could catch the other party off guard.

He had opportunities. He had repeatedly stopped time in a small area, wanting to use this to prepare to severely injure or even kill Huo Yuhao, but each time he was blocked by the black robe.

Niu Tian knew that it was a special divine artifact. He had once seen Du Bu Si use that divine artifact, but he hadn't expected Huo Yuhao's mastery of this divine artifact to have reached this level, nor had he expected the defensive power of this divine artifact to be so strong.

Seemingly ordinary robes were actually a battle armor.

His attacks on Huo Yuhao had been ineffective, but the other party's attacks had made it difficult for him to parry. Moreover, Niu Tian noticed that with each of Huo Yuhao's attacks, an unknown energy would invade his body.

Normally, he could easily dispel these energies, but not now. He couldn't afford to be distracted, otherwise, if Huo Yuhao seized the opportunity, he would be finished.

Looking inward, Niu Tian could see a large amount of gray energy scattered throughout his body. Although he couldn't see any harm for the time being, Niu Tian knew that this was definitely not a good thing.

The unease in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

Niu Tian saw Huo Yuhao wave his hand gently, and then a streak of blood-colored sword light flashed and disappeared.
