Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 396 Dark Eagle Dragon
Zhang Yang's martial soul is the Dark Illusionary Demon Eagle, while the Black Armor General's martial soul is the Bone Dragon King; both are extremely powerful beast martial souls.

The moment the two connected, their martial spirits and spirit rings merged together.

Tie Wu recognized that the other party was using a spirit fusion technique, but it was too late to stop him.

"Roar"

With a roar, a massive dark eagle dragon appeared atop the city wall, its aura rivaling that of a Soul Douluo and suppressing Tie Wu.

The soldiers of the Heavenly Dou Empire shouted in unison, their morale soaring, and their combat power greatly increased.

In their eyes, the Dark Eagle Dragon was a sign of victory, an image created by the Heavenly Dou Empire's army for its soldiers.

It can boost the morale of the army and unleash stronger combat power, but conversely, if the Dark Eagle Dragon is defeated, the blow to morale will be devastating.

With a flap of its wings, the Dark Eagle Dragon charged straight at Tie Wu, its dark aura surging from its body—a means of protection and a method of attack.

Tie Wu's expression changed, and his fifth spirit ring lit up.

Fifth Soul Skill: Ring of Hell!
A single Ring of Hell is not particularly powerful, but the power of multiple Rings of Hell can be greatly increased.

Having broken through to the Soul Saint level in Soul Power and absorbed the torso and soul bones of 100,000 years, he no longer needs to summon the Rings of Hell one by one.

"call"

In an instant, five rings of Fiery Prison appeared, merging into one under Tie Wu's control, truly like a blazing sun appearing in Tie Wu's hand.

Facing the Dark Eagle Dragon, it smashed straight down.

"呲呲!"

"what?"

Tie Wu was shocked. The Bone Dragon Claw ignored the terrifying temperature of the Ring of Hell and tore the Ring of Hell to shreds.

The Bone Dragon Claw has extremely strong tearing properties; unless one reaches the ultimate level, no one can withstand its attack.

As Zhang Yang and his companion's soul power levels increase, the Bone Dragon Claw will become increasingly terrifying. Perhaps when they cultivate to the level of Title Douluo, the Bone Dragon Claw will possess some kind of ultimate characteristic.

The Ring of Hell was torn apart, but the Dark Eagle Dragon's attack did not stop. It suddenly flew towards Iron Warrior, its massive size belying its speed.

Tie Wu quickly flapped his wings and barely managed to dodge.

However, the dark aura emanating from the Dark Eagle Dragon swept towards the Martial Soul Empire soldiers on the city wall below.

In no time at all, soldiers of the Martial Soul Empire fell from the city walls, seemingly lifeless.

Tie Wu's eyes turned cold, and he launched another attack on the Dark Eagle Dragon. The three-colored flames surrounding his left arm began to boil, and the intense heat immediately attracted the Dark Eagle Dragon's attention.

"A soul bone? You must have a high status in the Spirit Hall, right?"

A boastful voice emanated from within the Dark Eagle Dragon, echoing inexplicably.

Tie Wu did not answer his question and attacked the Dark Eagle Dragon.

"Boom boom"

The collision of the three-colored flames and the dark aura caused the Dark Eagle Dragon to constantly seek an opportunity to get close, but Tie Wu controlled the distance very precisely, not giving him a chance to get close.

The Bone Dragon Claw is too powerful; if you engage in close combat, you'll definitely be the one who suffers.

The tricolor flames are close to the ultimate flames, which can cause considerable trouble for the Dark Eagle Dragon.

However, the inability to harm the Dark Eagle Dragon is unavoidable.

"My lord, let's retreat!" the lieutenant below shouted.

Tie Wu was startled. He had overlooked the situation on the battlefield. The longer it went on, the more disadvantageous it would be for his side.

The battle with the Dark Eagle Dragon resulted in heavy losses for the Spirit Empire, with many soldiers killed. Tie Wu looked down and saw that the situation was indeed dire.

"boom"

The three-colored flames suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, affecting the Dark Eagle Dragon's vision. Tie Wu leaped back into the group.

"retreat."

Tie Wu was in charge of providing cover, while the remaining soldiers were all Soul Masters. Almost all the ordinary soldiers died in the siege by the Heavenly Dou Empire's soldiers.

"Sir, should we continue the pursuit?"

Zhang Yang and the black-armored general dispelled their spirit fusion technique, panting heavily. The spirit fusion technique consumed a considerable amount of spirit power.

“There might be an ambush by the Spirit Empire. Our current task is to regain control of Manno City and bring that good-for-nothing to me,” Zhang Yang said.

He could sense that Tie Wu had not yet used his full strength, and their Martial Soul Fusion Technique might not be enough to secure a decisive victory.

"Yes."

The soldiers brought the city lord of Mano over. His tendons in his hands and feet had been severed, and he had abandoned the city and fled. As the lord of a city, this was a capital offense. Zhang Yang had only severed his limbs, which was already considered very merciful.

"You know the situation in Mano City best, so you'd better be sensible."

The most crucial step is to have the Lord of Manor assist me in quickly taking control of the city. The defenses cannot be retreated any further; the empire has already lost too much territory.

This time, even Marshal Golong has come to resist the Spirit Empire.

……

Tie Wu had just led the remaining troops out of Manno City when he noticed something unusual in the woods on both sides.

Ambushed?

"Tie Wu, you're not so great either. How come you've been beaten out like a drowning dog?"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Tie Wu knew what was going on. He looked in the direction of the voice and, sure enough, saw Yan.

He led an army to the vicinity. Since he wasn't attacking the city, his purpose was obvious: to provide relief.

“I have at least conquered Manoa. If you want to teach me a lesson, try conquering Manoa yourself.”

"It's just a small city like Mano. If you can do it, so can I."

Upon hearing their conversation, the expressions of the two adjutants beside them changed, especially Yan's adjutant.

The Northern Route Marshal was worried that the two men were young and impetuous and lacked military experience, which is why he assigned them experienced deputy generals.

"My lord, Manno City now has reinforcements from the Heavenly Dou Empire. If we force an attack, the losses will be very severe," the adjutant beside Yan quickly explained.

Are their reinforcements very strong?

Yan asked a question, but before his deputy could answer, he heard Tie Wu's slightly mocking voice.

"Their commander is only a six-ring Soul Emperor, the same level as you. It's understandable if you're afraid."

"Ha, you, a Soul Saint, were defeated by a Soul Emperor, and you still have the nerve to say that? You should just watch how I conquer Manno City."

Yan immediately retorted with a sarcastic remark, and was about to lead his troops to attack Manno City. The strongest enemy was only a Soul Emperor, so how difficult could he be to deal with?

Lacking military experience, Yan subconsciously viewed the problem from the perspective of a Soul Master.

The opponent's strongest member was merely a Soul Emperor; how could he possibly compare to himself? Having received nurturing from the Spirit Hall and undergone rigorous training, he was far superior to any Soul Master of the same level; he could never be a match for him.

The deputy general beside Yan hurriedly tried to persuade him, and even the deputy general beside Tie Wu wanted to explain, but was silenced by a look from Tie Wu.
