Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 362 The troops are approaching the city
As the third strongest among the Ten Emperors of the Abyss, the Lie Emperor's cultivation far surpassed that of all humans. After his death, the abyssal energy that erupted was absorbed by Jiang Shengyu and Jiang Qingtong, directly pushing their cultivation to the Super Douluo realm!
A storm of soul power formed between the two, even directly altering the weather of this world!
After the soul power storm subsided, Jiang Shengyu looked down at his hands. The soul power within his body was surging and vast. Although they were only level 95 Super Douluo at this time, under their full strength, without the need for the support of another person's soul power, ordinary Limit Douluo were no longer their match!
As their soul power surged, the spiritual energy and imprints of heaven and earth tried to flow into their bodies, but they were blocked from entering. The blocked spiritual energy even condensed into a tangible form, turning into a golden mist that enveloped the two of them.

Jiang Qingtong frowned slightly and swung the Ice and Fire Dragon Spear to shatter and disperse the golden cloud.

Jiang Shengyu's gaze darkened again. He raised his hand and grasped the last wisp of light before it dissipated, then clenched his fist tightly.

The third layer of the abyss collapsed with a deafening roar, crushing countless abyssal creatures to death.

The Abyss Saint King's face was extremely grim. For the sake of the Douluo Plane, their hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation had completely vanished! But if they gave up at this moment, all those sacrifices would be irretrievable!
The sunk costs were too high, forcing the Abyss Saint King to continue his deadly struggle against the Douluo Plane.

"asshole!"

The Abyss Saint King roared, and countless abyssal creatures lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.

With the addition of Jiang Shengyu and his group, the resistance of the Star Luo Empire was quickly dismantled. Dai Hao and Dai Huabin were seriously injured, and the Star Luo Empire could no longer find a qualified military commander to resist the advance of the Sun Moon Army.

The cities that had been painstakingly recaptured were quickly taken back by the Sun Moon Empire.

The battle line has advanced once again to the outskirts of Xingluo City, even closer than before! Standing on the hill, Jiang Shengyu could already see the city walls of Xingluo City.

Inside the camp, news kept coming from other battles. The Sun Moon Army was advancing well against the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Fighting Spirit Empire. The remnants of the Heavenly Soul Empire were wiped out, freeing the Evil Lord and the Fear Claw Soul Master Corps to help the Fighting Spirit Army advance.

The strategic space originally belonging to the three kingdoms of Douluo Continent has been severely squeezed, and the advance of the Sun Moon Army has even approached Shrek City!

Ju Zi couldn't help but get excited. As long as they conquered Xingluo City and captured Dai Hao, she could avenge her great grudge! Huo Yuhao couldn't kill Dai Hao, but she could!
In the Star Luo City Imperial Palace, Emperor Xu Jiawei looked worried. Seeing the silent officials before him, he felt a surge of frustration: "This morning, the Sun Moon Empire has already set up camp outside Star Luo City. Don't any of you have a single word to say?"

After Xu Jiawei asked the question, the ministers looked at each other nervously.

They never expected the Sun Moon Empire's army to march so fast! They had only just begun their counterattack on the riverbank a few days ago, and today they were already at the gates of Xingluo City!
"Your Majesty, the troops summoned from all over the country are on their way! We just need to hold out until Phoenix Fights Roman Peach completes her trials and becomes a god!"

On one side, the healer Douluo Wang Xian'er comforted Xu Jiawei's emotions. The Star Luo Empire now only has one strategy, which is to stall for time until the gods appear, and everything will be resolved.

"But can Xingluo City be defended? Feng Fenghuang Douluo's seclusion is in the city. I am worried that if the city falls, it will affect her succession to the godhood. Wouldn't that be a huge crime?" Xu Jiawei frowned and expressed his concerns.

Ma Xiaotao was perfectly fine, but suddenly she had to go into seclusion to undergo the final divine test. Although they knew that once she passed the divine test, she would become a god, the timing, location, and plane of this seclusion were too dangerous!
Where in Xingluo City is it safer than Shrek Academy!

Now that the enemy has already besieged the city, what will happen if Ma Xiaotao still can't get out of the pass!
Just as Xu Jiawei was extremely anxious, Yan Shaozhe led Bei Bei into the main hall. Behind them were a large number of Shrek Academy teachers and several Abyss Emperors.

Xu Jiawei hurriedly stood up and stepped down from the throne to greet him. Wiping his sweat, he said, "Dean Yan, you've finally arrived! The Sun and Moon rebels are eyeing Xingluo City, and the city's army is small. The city's defenses depend entirely on Shrek Academy!" Yan Shaozhe listened to Xu Jiawei's lament, his brows furrowing slightly, but he still nodded with composure to reassure him, "Your Majesty, rest assured, with Shrek Academy here, Xingluo City will never fall!"

Beibei added from the side, "The Soul Guidance Department has completed a large number of Level 7 city defense soul tools, and we've brought them! They can be distributed to the soldiers guarding the city immediately. With our assistance, defending Star Luo City shouldn't be a problem!"

"That's wonderful, that's absolutely wonderful!" Xu Jiawei exclaimed excitedly, thanking Yan Shaozhe and Bei Bei repeatedly.

Yan Shaozhe then began assigning tasks to the Abyss Emperors who had accompanied him.

Looking at these Abyss Emperors, Xu Jiawei looked somewhat worried. The Healer Douluo Wang Xian'er, who was standing to the side, also walked solemnly in front of Xu Jiawei. Her gaze towards Yan Shaozhe was full of hesitation.

After noticing their reactions, Yan Shaozhe reassured them, "Your Majesty, rest assured, these Abyss Emperors are all at the Super Douluo level, enough to guard a city gate on their own."

The terms of cooperation between Tang San and the Abyss Saint King stipulated that, apart from the top ten emperors who could enter and leave the Douluo Continent, other Abyss emperors at the Limit Douluo level were not allowed to set foot there!

This means that most of the Abyss Emperors in the first 36 levels can only remain in the Abyss, and only those in the last 72 levels can follow the first ten Emperors to this place.

This is to prevent the Abyss from overwhelming Shrek Academy.

Hearing Yan Shaozhe's reassurance, Xu Jiawei breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt some resistance towards the Abyss Emperors. He smiled awkwardly and then had someone arrange accommodations for the Shrek Academy group.

Jiang Shengyu and Jiang Qingtong have a very keen sense of the abyss's aura; they sensed it as soon as Yan Shaozhe and his group arrived in Xingluo City!

Looking out from their vantage point, the two gazed at the colossal city lying on the plain in the distance. In their field of vision, besides the aura of the abyssal creatures, a beam of red-gold light swayed and shot into the sky.

That was the aura of Ma Xiaotao, who was in seclusion for divine trials. That beam of red and gold light symbolized her connection with the Phoenix Godhood in the divine realm.

The red-gold beam of light was still unstable, which meant that Ma Xiaotao had not yet inherited the Phoenix Godhood.

Judging from the solidity of the beam of light, it probably wasn't long before it became truly stable. Jiang Shengyu took a deep breath and turned to look at the Sun and Moon Army, which stood ready for battle on the other side of the hill.

Ice crystals rose, and the Ephemeral Flower Sword emerged from his hand, radiating a chilling aura.

Jiang Shengyu raised his hand, his sword pointing directly at Xingluo City.
