Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

To make up for the mistake and to disrupt the Sun Moon Empire's plans, the Star Luo Empire has mobilized its entire force this time. Apart from the garrison troops left to guard major cities, the Star Luo Empire has sent out all its elite troops.

After all, they knew that if they couldn't even conquer the Mingdou Mountains and put enough pressure on the Sun Moon Empire, then the Heavenly Soul Empire would be doomed, and the entire situation would be completely out of control.

The sky had become a terrifying battlefield, with countless soul-guided cannons spewing out scorching flames, and soul-guided rays flashing like lightning. A raging energy storm swept across the entire battlefield like a surging wave.

Even the Molten Knights, equipped with Soul Guidance Mechs, dared not approach easily in the face of such a terrifying barrage of fire.

Because they also knew that even with the protection of the soul-guided mechs, once they stepped into this dangerous area, they would most likely be torn to shreds by the powerful firepower in an instant.

On the battlefield, thousands of Soul Masters clashed fiercely with the Soul Masters of the Star Luo Empire.

Such a large-scale and high-intensity battle between Soul Masters is extremely rare in the entire Douluo Continent.

In the midst of that fierce back-and-forth, sword-fighting frenzy, ordinary soldiers dared not approach even an inch, and could only watch from afar, overwhelmed by the breathtaking atmosphere of the battle.

Within the Mingdou Mountains, over three thousand soul-guided cannons roared like behemoths, unleashing terrifying firepower.

Various types of soul-guided cannons and soul-guided rays work together to form an impenetrable firepower network.

As soon as the Star Luo Empire's Soul Masters showed the slightest sign of approaching, they were met with a merciless "firepower package," instantly engulfing them in a sea of ​​fire.

Although the Sun Moon Empire was far inferior to the Star Luo Empire in terms of military strength, they successfully built an impregnable defensive line by relying on these advanced and powerful soul tools.

Faced with such formidable defenses, the Star Luo Empire's army was unable to get close for the time being and could only passively take hits from a distance, putting them in an extremely difficult situation.

At this moment, the Mingdou Mountain range defense line resembled a giant hedgehog covered in sharp quills, exuding a chilling aura. Anyone who dared to approach would be pierced by those sharp quills, bleeding profusely and returning empty-handed.

However, faced with such a tight defense from the Sun Moon Empire, the Star Luo Empire did not sit idly by and wait for its demise, but instead quickly devised a countermeasure.

They carefully selected and dispatched five hundred powerful Soul Saints to form an assault team.

These five hundred Soul Saints launched a fierce attack on the Sun Moon Empire's defenses, attempting to create a breach.

It should be noted that these five hundred Soul Saints are all genuine powerhouses. In the various empires of Douluo Continent, Soul Saint-level powerhouses are all highly respected figures, and they are all qualified to receive titles.

In various sects, Soul Saint level experts often hold important elder positions. In academies, they can also serve as teachers. In some empires, the city lords of certain cities are only at the Soul Saint level. This shows the scarcity and importance of Soul Saint level experts throughout the Douluo Continent.

The fact that the Star Luo Empire resolutely dispatched these five hundred Soul Saints to form an assault team is enough to show that they have made up their minds to fight to the death, with the belief that they will fight to the death, and are determined to fight their way out of this battle and reverse the current unfavorable situation.

When a Soul Master's cultivation reaches the Soul Saint realm, their strength is no longer what it used to be, and it becomes extremely difficult for ordinary Soul Tools to cause them any real harm.

Unless simultaneously targeted by numerous soul tools, a Soul Saint can move freely and easily across the battlefield thanks to their immense strength and agile movements. Based on this advantage, the Star Luo Empire's assault team of five hundred Soul Saints did not launch a reckless attack, but instead adopted a strategy of attrition.

Their goal was clear: to continuously deplete the soul power of the Soul Masters left behind by the Sun Moon Empire, as well as the reserves of Soul Guidance Devices.

It should be understood that operating a soul tool to attack requires soul power, and the number of soul masters left behind by the Sun Moon Empire is already limited. In the long and intense battle, their soul power will gradually be depleted, and their energy will also be exhausted.

In contrast, the Star Luo Empire has a large number of Soul Saints, and is supported by a huge group of Soul Masters.

In terms of protracted warfare, the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire were clearly no match for the Soul Saints of the Star Luo Empire.

Moreover, the Star Luo Empire holds an absolute advantage in the number of Soul Masters, which undoubtedly provides a solid foundation for them to implement attrition tactics.

In this fierce battle, the Soul Masters of the Star Luo Empire fought against the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire while looking for an opportunity to destroy their Soul Guidance Devices.

After all, soul tools are not easy to make, and once one is destroyed, there are fewer of them. Even though the Sun Moon Empire is wealthy and has abundant resources, the number of soul tools is not infinite.

In fact, launching this war has already consumed a huge amount of resources for the Sun Moon Empire. Not only was the initial investment enormous, but in order to maintain the continuation of the war, even more materials and wealth need to be continuously invested.

This series of expenditures directly led to a sharp rise in prices within the Sun Moon Empire, greatly increasing the pressure on people's lives.

However, war is a bottomless pit of money, and they really have no choice but to accept it.

In this battlefield situation, the mission of the Molten Knights is to protect those precious high-altitude detection soul guides.

These detection soul guides play a crucial role in enabling the Sun Moon Empire to gather battlefield intelligence. If they are destroyed, the Sun Moon Empire will be at a great disadvantage in intelligence gathering.

Therefore, the Molten Knights must guard against the Star Luo Empire's Soul Masters flying into the sky and damaging these rare and important detection Soul Guidance Devices.

For the Molten Knights, who can fly freely in the air, aerial combat is undoubtedly their home ground.

With their advanced soul-guided mechs and flight capabilities, they built a solid defensive line in the high sky.

With them guarding the high altitude, it became extremely difficult for the Star Luo Empire's Soul Masters to break through the defenses and approach the detection Soul Guidance Device. Few Soul Masters were able to successfully break through their blockade.

The meteor hovered high in the sky, observing the situation on the entire battlefield. At this moment, the battle had reached a stalemate.

While the soul tools deployed by the Sun Moon Empire were incredibly powerful and posed a significant threat to the Star Luo Empire's ordinary troops, capable of hindering their advance to some extent, they proved difficult to subdue or severely injure powerful Soul Saints and agile Soul Masters.
