Chapter 456 The Battle for the Imperial Palace

Above the ruins of the imperial palace, the sky has become a battlefield.

Kong Deming's hair and beard stood on end, and his eyes were bloodshot. This chief retainer of the Sun and Moon Empire had gone mad.

His body shone with a burst of silver moonlight, and a huge silver moon phantom appeared behind him. Countless soul-guided rays and energy cannons poured down on Poison Undying like a storm.

"I demand that you be buried with His Majesty!"

Kong Deming roared, looking like a madman.

The power of the level nine soul tool was fully displayed in his hands, each strike containing destructive power, as if it would tear the sky apart.

Poison Undying's emerald green soul power surged like a raging tide, and the huge green giant phantom roared repeatedly, colliding fiercely with the silver moonlight.

Although he was already a Limit Douluo, he was still a newcomer to this realm. Faced with Kong Deming's desperate fighting style and his endless stream of powerful soul tools, he was unable to gain an absolute advantage for a time and could only barely maintain a stalemate. The roar of explosions and the sounds of clashing energy were incessant, and the space rippled wherever the two fought.

In another part of the sky, the Snow Emperor held the Ice Extreme Divine Sword, its blade swirling with extreme cold. Each swing stirred up a flurry of snow and ice, as if the air itself were about to freeze.

Her opponent was the Dragon Emperor Douluo, Long Xiaoyao.

Long Xiaoyao's expression was solemn. The Dark Holy Dragon Martial Soul possessed him, and his huge black dragon wings spread out. With the swing of his dragon claws, streaks of pitch-black energy tore through the sky and collided fiercely with the Snow Emperor's ultimate ice.

The energy of ice and darkness annihilated in the air, unleashing a deafening roar.

"Emperor Sword·Bingji Wushuang!"

The Snow Emperor's cold voice rang out, and the Ice Extreme Divine Sword suddenly erupted with an extremely dazzling cold light. A huge ice-blue sword aura swept across the sky, carrying a terrifying power that could freeze everything, and slashed towards Long Xiaoyao.

Long Xiaoyao dared not be negligent. He let out a deafening dragon roar, clasped his claws together, and instantly a huge dark dragon scale shield condensed in front of him.

"boom--!"

The sword energy slammed into the shield, the extreme cold and the domineering dark power colliding and eroding each other wildly.

Long Xiaoyao felt a bone-chilling coldness wash over him, and even with his Limit Douluo cultivation, he couldn't help but shiver.

The Snow Emperor's strength is truly terrifying! If this were in the far north, I would probably have been defeated long ago.

Just then, a vast and incomparable power of light, filled with warmth and a sacred aura, suddenly shone from the direction of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, like the rising sun, and was clearly visible even in the chaotic battlefield.

Long Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat; this aura... he was all too familiar with it!

“Moun!” he exclaimed in a low voice, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The Black and White Twin Dragons, once upon a time, were such close friends with Moon, sharing the same ideals and aspirations.

But because of Ye Xishui, they eventually parted ways and became enemies.

He had always believed that after Mu En fought with Du Bisi, the brother of Du Busi, he suffered irreversible injuries. Even if he didn't die, his cultivation must have been greatly damaged, leaving him barely clinging to life.

But to everyone's surprise, after so many years, Moon is not only still alive, but his aura is even purer and stronger than it was back then!

A terrifying thought arose in his mind: Mu En's presence in Mingdu at this moment was no coincidence. What if he, Xue Di, or even the newly promoted Limit Douluo, Du Busi, joined forces…

Long Xiaoyao instantly felt the urge to retreat.

He joined the Holy Spirit Cult solely for Ye Xishui's sake; he had no loyalty whatsoever to the Sun Moon Royal Family.

Now that the emperor and members of the royal family have been killed or wounded, and the fate of Crown Prince Xu Tianran is unknown, he doesn't want to get involved in this mess anymore.

He knew Moon's character well; if he knew his current identity, he would never have shown any mercy!

"Snow Emperor, let's stop for now!" Long Xiaoyao roared, enduring the aftershock of Snow Emperor's ice sword strike. He felt his blood churning in his chest and almost spat out a mouthful of dragon blood.

Using the force of the impact, he retreated rapidly, transforming into a black streak of light, and disappeared into the distant horizon without looking back.

Xue Di frowned slightly, but did not pursue.

Her mission was to destroy the palace, not to fight Long Xiaoyao to the death.

To retain a Limit Douluo, she alone is not enough.

Meanwhile, within the Ming capital, chaos had already erupted.

The earth-shattering explosion and towering flames from the direction of the palace were like the end of the world, shocking the entire city.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Powerful auras rose from every corner of the city as more than seven or eight level-nine Soul Masters, piloting various flying Soul Tools, transformed into streaks of light and rushed towards the ruins of the imperial palace with grave expressions. They were top-tier experts belonging to the royal family or the military, and at this moment, they were all trembling with fear.

Outside the palace, the interconnected soul-guided alarm array that had been set up beforehand was fully activated, and the piercing alarm sounded through the sky.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Heavy footsteps and the scraping of metal echoed from various military outposts as squads of Royal Soul Master Corps soldiers, clad in standard armor and operating heavy soul cannons, soul ray emitters, and other war machines, marched toward the palace like an iron torrent.

However, the experts of the Body Sect were already on high alert.

"Stop them!" Despite being engaged in a fierce battle with Kong Deming, Du Busi's voice still clearly reached the ears of every member of the Body Sect.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Dozens of skilled members of the Body Sect fearlessly confronted the Soul Master Corps that had come to their aid.

With their powerful physiques and the unique abilities of their martial spirits, they managed to hold off these well-equipped legions outside the palace.

In an instant, shouts of battle and explosions rang out throughout Mingdu, and the flames of war spread rapidly.

However, not all the titled Douluo from the three kingdoms of Douluo Continent participated in the interception of the Soul Master Corps.

The First Elder of the Douling Empire, the level 97 Power Attack Type Title Douluo, Tianyang Douluo, flashed away from the main force, his eyes flashing with a cold light, and flew straight towards the direction of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

His mission was to weaken the future potential of the Sun Moon Empire as much as possible, and the best way to do that was to slaughter those talented students.

Those who shared similar ideas included the Shattered Star Douluo of the Star Luo Empire and the Xuanji Douluo, whose martial soul was the Xuanji Umbrella and who was skilled in unpredictable attacks. Like ghosts in the night, they quietly dispersed and rushed toward their predetermined targets—the scientific research institutions and talent gathering places that were of vital importance to the Sun Moon Empire.

The Golden Body Douluo of the Body Sect roared and led a group of Body Sect disciples to confront the ninth-level Soul Masters who were trying to approach the palace head-on, relieving the pressure on Xue Di and Du Busi.

A chaotic battle surrounding the Ming capital has begun.

Lin You's foresight was fully demonstrated at this moment.

If he hadn't asked Mu En to oversee the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy beforehand, the consequences would have been unimaginable if the academy had faced a surprise attack from a powerhouse of Tianyang Douluo's caliber.

This is a manifestation of the butterfly effect. As a result, the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters avoided Moon's wrath, but instead faced the even more terrifying Beast God Di Tian.

I really laughed.

Joy, everyone has their own bright future.
