Douluo: Marry Shui Binger, reward Puni Martial Soul

Chapter 152: Six Months Later, the Target is the Sun and Moon Continent

"You fear that his disrespectful power will shake your divine authority that has been supreme for millennia!"

"You are afraid of a mere mortal!"

"you!"

Poseidon, the god of the sea, had his secret revealed, causing his divine power to go out of control and crack his entire throne!

But he ultimately didn't dare to make another move.

"Humph!"

Poseidon, the god of the sea, could only let out a cold snort filled with endless resentment and humiliation before sitting down in anger.

But his venomous eyes were fixed on the mortal realm, his divine thoughts turning into curses.

Shura, you can protect him for a while, but not forever!
The Asura God said no more, turned around and transformed into a streak of blood-red light, disappearing from the God Realm Committee.

A divine realm upheaval that could have destroyed the entire Douluo Continent was thus forcibly suppressed.

But all the gods knew that this was only a temporary peace.

That mortal named Xue Lingxiao was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating the first ripples in the realm of gods.

……

Half a year later.

Holy Spirit Empire, East Coast, Colossus Shipyard.

What was once a bustling construction site has now been transformed into a massive, heavily guarded military port of unprecedented scale.

Zhao Zilong stood with his hands behind his back on the highest watchtower of the port.

Beneath his feet, a massive and awe-inspiring fleet lay silently anchored.

Even with his composure and experience of seeing many big scenes, his eyes were filled with shock at this moment.

This time, it's not thirty-six ships.

It was a full three hundred ships!
Three hundred ferocious behemoths, entirely crafted from Xuanjing Iron and Hanhai Shenyin Wood, with ship-mounted God-Slaying Cannons mounted on their prows!
They are no longer simply sea battleships. On both sides and the bottom of the hull, huge soul-guided propulsion units are installed, and countless anti-gravity devices are engraved.

Even in the core power compartment, His Majesty unprecedentedly used the divinely bestowed soul bone from Poseidon Island, which had been captured, as the energy center!
This fleet can conquer not only the seas, but also... the skies!
This is a real aerospace fleet!
Zhao Zilong took a deep breath, feeling a burning sensation of power permeating the air.

The very existence of this fleet is the ultimate mockery of the word "possibility".

Your Majesty's power has long surpassed the limits of mortal imagination.

Today is the day His Majesty will formally unveil this invincible fleet to his officials.

Lingxiao Palace.

The civil and military officials stood in neat rows, creating a solemn atmosphere.

Xue Lingxiao sat upright on the Nine-Dragon Throne, his gaze calmly sweeping over the assembled officials below.

In just six months, under his will, the empire had completely absorbed the spoils of conquering the Spirit Hall and Seagod Island, and its national strength was more than ten times greater than before.

"My lords."

He spoke slowly.

"I intend to reignite the war."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was shocked!

Having just unified the continent and brought peace to the land, Your Majesty is now planning to launch another war.
The Minister of War stepped forward with a stiff upper lip: "Your Majesty, now that the continent is unified and the world is at peace, I wonder... I wonder where Your Majesty's sword is aimed?"

Xue Lingxiao slowly stood up and walked to the huge map that encompassed the entire known world.

His finger crossed the Douluo Continent, crossed the vast ocean, and touched the other end of the map.

That continent, separated from Douluo Continent by the sea, is famous for its Soul Guidance Technology.

"Sun and Moon Continent, Sun and Moon Empire".

Xue Lingxiao's voice was calm, yet it was like a thunderclap, exploding in the ears of every minister.

An expedition across the sea?!
Conquering another continent?!

What a crazy, audacious idea!
"Your Majesty, please reconsider!" an old minister pleaded, his voice trembling. "According to intelligence brought back by scouts risking their lives, the Sun Moon Empire's soul-guided technology far surpasses our imagination, and its army is extremely powerful!" "Furthermore, they possess the national treasure, the 'Radiant Sunbeam,' which is said... said to be a forbidden weapon capable of wiping out a city in a single blow! A hasty expedition is fraught with risk..."

"risk?"

Xue Lingxiao didn't even use the imperial might; he merely sneered, and the old minister was struck as if by lightning, instantly kneeling on the ground, cold sweat pouring down his face, unable to utter another word.

"How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed?"

"My goal in unifying the world is to unify the entire world, not to be content with a corner of the world."

Xue Lingxiao's gaze suddenly became incredibly profound, as if it could pierce through time and space.

"The very existence of the Sun and Moon Empire is a provocation against me and the entire Holy Spirit Empire."

"Their soul-guided technology, their resources, their land will all fall into my hands!"

Xue Lingxiao turned around, her gaze disdainful, her voice cold and unyielding.

"Preach my will!"

"By order of the emperor, Zhao Zilong is appointed Grand Marshal of the Expedition, commanding the army and in charge of all battles after the landing!"

"By order of destiny, Qian Renxue will be the deputy commander of the expedition, leading the aerospace fleet and responsible for seizing air superiority and suppressing the divine-level combat forces!"

"Lead an army of 300,000 and set out immediately!"

Upon receiving the appointment, Qian Renxue stepped out from the ranks of civil officials, clad in golden armor and red robes, exuding a heroic and dashing air, and knelt on one knee.

"Your Majesty, I obey!"

Zhao Zilong strode in from outside the hall, his armor clanging loudly.

"My lord, take the order!"

Xue Lingxiao looked at His Highness's two most capable assistants, nodded slightly, and then his voice rang out again, but with a chilling undertone.

"I want to hear the letter of surrender from the Sun Moon Empire within a month!"

"I will make the banner of my Holy Spirit Empire fly high over that continent!"

He paused, his cold gaze sweeping across everyone's faces.

"Furthermore, we must bring the core of that so-called national treasure, 'Radiance of the Sun,' back to Holy Spirit City intact."

"My God-Slaying Cannon is just missing a more interesting energy core."

hiss--!
The entire court was taken aback! His Majesty desired more than just conquest!
He actually wanted to... seize the enemy's national treasure to arm his own war machine!
How overbearing this is!
How... insane!
"Those who offend my divine authority, though far away, shall be punished!"

"My lord, I obey your order!"

In the midst of utter shock and fervor, no one dared to voice any objection. They all knelt down and shouted "Long live the Emperor!"

They finally understood.

In His Majesty's eyes, the so-called Sun and Moon Empire is no match at all.

That was merely a piece of spoils that was about to be acquired...

Three days later.

The eastern coast of the empire.

Three hundred aerospace warships, amidst the cheers and gazes of countless people, slowly activated their soul-guided engines.

The massive ship, freed from the constraints of the seawater, slowly rose into the air under the influence of the anti-gravity soul guide!
Three hundred steel behemoths, blotting out the sky like mobile mountain ranges suspended in the air, marched eastward toward that unknown sea.

On the flagship "Tianzheng".

Xue Lingxiao stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in a dark gold imperial robe. Beside him, Qian Renxue, adorned in a phoenix coronet and wedding gown, was peerless in beauty and elegance.

"Sun and Moon Continent".

Xue Lingxiao looked into the distance, her voice calm.

"I am here."
