Give Douluo a technological shock

He didn't pay much attention to anything else, and walked straight out of the room onto the street. At that moment, a large number of wolf riders, leading more than a thousand Star Luo people whose appearance was not very good, appeared in this desolate city.

"General Dai, there are three children inside. Your men should go and look after them. It's inconvenient for our men to go, and they might frighten them."

After leaving the house, Yang Xiao spoke in a deep voice to a young man in his twenties or thirties with a full beard, who was among the Star Luo survivors brought from other places by the Canglang Ranger Legion.

The young man surnamed Dai nodded silently to Yang Xiao, then instructed several of his men, who were clearly from the military, to take a few women to the dilapidated hut to take care of the three children.

Then everyone watched silently as the Star Luo people went to take care of the child. No one spoke, and the scene fell into a very oppressive silence.

Finally, the young man surnamed Dai couldn't help but ask Ye Xuan, the leader of the Azure Wolf Cavalry Legion who was still silent on the other side and riding on the tall giant wolf, in a deep voice: "How many survivors are there?"

The young man's words immediately drew the attention of everyone present, including the Star Luo people. Some came from the countryside, some were discovered by the wolf riders in the forest, some were from cities along the way, and there was also the young man known as 'General Dai' with his personal guard of more than ten men.

The Azure Wolf Cavalry Legion, starting from the direction of Star Luo City, infiltrated the border of Sun and Moon little by little through various soul beast forests, rescuing more than 10,000 people along the way. Most of them were hidden by the wolf riders in the rarely visited soul beast forests, and the Ten-Thousand-Year Wolf King and the Ten-Thousand-Year Wind-Chasing Dog in the Azure Wolf Army negotiated with the soul beasts in the forests, so they were safe for the time being.

During this time, they encountered some surviving border guards, and then, together with 'General Dai' whom they met by chance on the road, they formed a five-hundred-man Star Luo Western Army, which followed behind the Canglang Ranger Corps.

After nearly a week of travel, the Canglang Cavalry marched in a circuitous route, bypassing more than twenty gathering points on the large and small maps, rescuing more than a thousand survivors, and finally arrived at this desolate city.

“Five living people. But we were a step too late; two of them are already dead,” Ye Xuan said quietly, sitting on the giant wolf.

The two dead survivors were the work of the evil spirit master who had just been riddled with arrows by wolf riders on the street.

When the young man surnamed Dai heard the news, although he was somewhat prepared, he still couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart!

"There are over 100,000 registered residents here!" The young man surnamed Dai's voice trembled slightly.

"Part of the Star Luo Western Front Legion's logistical supplies would have passed through this city."

For a semi-feudal country like the Star Luo Empire, a city with over 100,000 people would have a vast surrounding area under its influence. But the scene they've encountered along the way is utter desolation in the western region!

"Sigh, let's take a break and see if we can get any information from those three survivors."

Ouch!

Suddenly, the howl of wolves rang out in the distance. Then Ye Xuan's gaze sharpened as she looked at a dark figure rushing towards them on the dim horizon.

The giant wolf beneath him began to feel uneasy, because the other's aura was extremely bloody and repulsive.

Deng!

A cyan spirit ring appeared behind Yang Xiao, who had always been taciturn. He gently stroked the hilt of his sword, which was covered in runes and cracks, and silently watched the disgusting aura on the horizon.

An invisible aura and killing intent surged uncontrollably within Yang Xiao. With his back to the general surnamed Dai, Yang Xiao silently said in the dim light, "General Dai, I feel sincerely sorry for the people of Xingluo who died in Pandora."

"..." The young man surnamed Dai narrowed his eyes, not knowing what Yang Xiao was talking about.

Deng!

The cyan neon lights pierced through the thick black clouds amidst people's numb gazes, revealing the original brilliance of the Milky Way.

The dreamlike cyan blade light cleaved through time and years, carrying a surging killing intent beneath its calm surface, and pierced through the shadow in one strike!

However, this time, unlike before, he did not directly behead the target. This move was not very effective against the strangely powerful evil soul masters. Yang Xiao's [Slay Me] blade, with its domineering power that almost guaranteed to strike first, pierced through the Pandora Core, which was sold by the Star Dou Empire and was comparable to the innate level 10 soul power, in the center of the chest of the black shadow titled Douluo who was emitting a disgusting and stinking aura, and shattered it with a single strike!

In Yang Xiao's keen perception, the Title Douluo evil soul master, whose soul power level should be around level ninety-one, possessed a vast majority of soul power imbued with boundless resentment.

what does this mean?

This means that this level 91 evil spirit master was killed on the front lines.

Yang Xiao had no idea how many lives would be needed to create a Title Douluo-level soul power of that quality and level.

Moreover, is there only one Title Douluo created with human lives?

Bang!

The black shadowy Title Douluo who sensed the blood and flew through the air felt the Pandora Core in his chest suddenly shatter!

Then, as if frozen in place, his soul power began to emit a strange black aura, scaring him so much that he dared not move an inch. He also dared not use his soul power without the 'external soul power purification core', and he fell straight down from mid-air.

hum~

As the shattered blade returned to its sheath, Yang Xiao's face paled slightly, but he quickly recovered thanks to his powerful physique.

"I'm going to finish him off. You guys wait for me to come back."

Then, a gigantic Wind Chaser appeared instantly beside Yang Xiao, who then flipped onto the dog and disappeared in an instant.

Not long after Yang Xiao left, the young man surnamed Dai, who had seen Yang Xiao draw his knife more than once, still looked shocked. He then asked Ye Xuan, "What did he mean by that?"

"It means that the evil spirit master used the Pandora Core to prove a path, a path of 'cannibalism'."

Ye Xuan gazed at the gloomy sky and answered expressionlessly.

"I remember Pandora's explanation at the Second Douluo Conference was..."

Michelle Ye answered quietly, "The Magic Box."

The young man surnamed Dai suddenly fell silent: "."

Ye Xuan then put her hands in her pockets and asked, "Is your ghost cat partner still here?"

Upon hearing this, the young man surnamed Dai's face suddenly turned pale, and he almost collapsed, appearing somewhat drunk.

"Okay. My condolences."

Ye Xuan put the Martial Soul Lock back into her pocket and then sighed softly.

Ye Xuan didn't want to ask about the past of this young man surnamed Dai. After all, he was someone who fought alongside the old White Tiger Douluo to the very end, and no one could criticize him for anything.

Susu

A gentle breeze swept by, and Yang Xiao, riding a giant beast, quietly appeared beside the group.

"The enemy has been dealt with, but their identity might alert the Sun and Moon's evil spirit army. The road ahead may be even more dangerous, so we need to find a place to stay as soon as possible."

Sitting atop the Wind Chaser, Yang Xiao looked back at the western horizon, which had somehow turned pitch black. In the dim glow of the setting sun, he seemed to vaguely see a silent, colossal city at the edge of the plains, at the foot of the towering Mingdou Mountains.

"Where do we go next?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan opened the map and pointed to the end of the plain, saying:

"Yuming City".

I need to fill in several plot holes, which are basically the plot before the protagonist's birth, such as the later records of Yang Xiao, whether Ye Xishui is alive, Chen Hong's ending, etc. The protagonist's birth means that the Douluo Continent series is basically coming to an end, and then it will be a complete protagonist-only event, and the supporting characters will basically not appear anymore.

To speed up the process, I will try to add more chapters.

39288908.

Chapter 284: Stand Up! Compatriots! Fight!!! [Requesting Monthly Tickets]

Chapter 291 Stand Up! Compatriots! Fight!!! [Requesting Monthly Tickets]

To avoid any unforeseen complications, Yang Xiao led 1,500 wolf riders and over 1,000 ordinary surviving civilians from Xingluo along a rarely traveled path, silently making their way towards Yuming City in the Mingdou Mountains.

Soon, after passing through a dense forest where they could hide, the general surnamed Dai, who had gathered more than 500 remnants of his army, found Yang Xiao and Ye Xuan, who were sitting together looking at a map, accompanied by a boy with bandages on his hands.

"My lords, the survivors of Tianming City have awakened. Perhaps they possess the information you need."

General Dai, pulling the somewhat frightened boy along, walked to Yang Xiao's side. Ye Xuan gently patted the wolf king, signaling it not to get too close, as it would frighten the child.

Woo~

The wolf king grumbled under his breath in dissatisfaction, then silently got up and found a more distant spot to lie down and lick his fur.

"Tianming City? Tell me, we are Star People, don't be afraid. Can you tell me what you know? For example, why are there so few survivors in Tianming City, a border city?"

Ye Xuan spoke softly, and as he spoke, he re-marked the ruins on the map with the words 'Tianming City'. They weren't without a map of the Star Luo Empire, and they knew there should be a major city nearby, but the previous city was so desolate that Ye Xuan was somewhat uncertain. Now that a Star Luo person was admitting that it was the second largest city in the western border of the Star Luo Empire after Yuming City, Ye Xuan had no choice but to accept this harsh reality.

The boy hiding behind General Dai peeked out hesitantly after the terrifying giant wolf spirit beast had gone far away. His gaze darted between Yang Xiao and Ye Xuan, and finally, with lingering fear, he recalled, "There were black spirit masters... so many of them. Their chests... were the same as yours."

Yang Xiao and Ye Xuan were silent for a moment. Then, Ye Xuan took out a crystal cube with a trace of blood and a gentle glow from the pocket of his military uniform. A hint of reminiscence flashed in his eyes. He then tossed it to the boy whose hand was wrapped in bandages, saying expressionlessly:

"Is this the kind? A soul power-assisted cultivation device, codenamed [Pandora], meaning: magic box, produced by the Star Dou Empire, which can enable ordinary people without soul power to become soul masters."

"And the core in your hand is the relic of a Star Warrior who sacrificed himself while exploring the Western Frontier."

At first, no one knew why the Pandora Core symbolized a magic box. Some speculated that the Pandora Core would disrupt the existing order of Soul Masters, thus bringing turmoil to the world. But now Ye Xuan understands the meaning of the 'magic box'.

From the very beginning of Pandora's Core's creation, its creators understood that this soul tool would bring more than just a challenge to the world's order. Or rather, every soul tool technology capable of changing the world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing both economic and social aspects), is a 'pandora's box,' because technology is a double-edged sword.

In the hands of some, the Pandora Core can be a tool for everyone to change their destiny and strive for a better future. In the hands of others, however, it is a bloody weapon of enslavement, oppression, and exploitation of the lower classes to enrich a minority.

"Yes, that's it!" The boy held the Pandora Core that had been thrown into his hands in a somewhat terrified manner, as if he had encountered something horrifying, frozen in place, afraid to move.

"What happened after those black-clad Soul Masters? Why has Tianming City, with a population of over 100,000, become so deserted and silent?"

Ye Xuan ignored the boy's reaction and continued to ask.

The boy, regaining his senses, felt as if the Pandora Core in his hand was burning hot iron; holding it was awkward, and throwing it away was equally awkward. Seeing the military officer opposite him speak, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply, "Those black-clad Soul Masters... they've imprisoned everyone inside the city, and they've also driven all the people from the surrounding villages into the city."

"and then."

"!!!" The boy suddenly screamed in terror, "They! They! They kill old people every day! They said they wouldn't kill us if we handed over the old people, but we disagreed. Many people resisted, my father and the others all resisted, and then those people killed all those who resisted in front of everyone."

"Skip this part, what happened next?" Yang Xiao, standing next to Ye Xuan, frowned and then asked coldly.

The boy was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears, crying out, "No one yielded! No one yielded!!! We clearly couldn't win, but not a single person was willing to submit to those demons!"

"..." Ye Xuan narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the somewhat emotionally distraught Tianming, whose speech was incoherent, and asked leadingly, "So they all sacrificed themselves?"

"Waaah...no," the boy Tianming sobbed, wiping away his tears. "They killed so many people. In the end, a powerful Soul Master intervened and subdued the rest. Then they escorted them out of the city. My two sisters and I were shielded by the bodies of many uncles and aunts, and we were buried at the bottom. Then, when they weren't looking, we ran home and hid."
