Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 421 Blazing Asura

Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger instantly unleashed his fourth soul skill, White Tiger Meteor Shower, intercepting the green light heading towards him.

Just when everyone thought the crisis was temporarily over, suddenly, about three hundred meters in front of Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, a brownish-yellow light appeared.

When the brownish-yellow light first appeared, it was only a small patch about ten meters in diameter, but in an instant it spread out, covering a diameter of one hundred meters, and engulfing the mountain path and the surrounding mountain walls.

This is……!

Ji Lin was somewhat surprised that it had managed to evade his mental detection. This kind of soul tool must be at least level eight!

These enemies who came to assassinate Duke White Tiger have really gone all out! This must be a level eight fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell.

It seems that mental detection is not invincible. We can no longer blindly trust the effectiveness of mental detection. This attack has served as a wake-up call for Ji Lin.

"Rumble..."

In an instant, it seemed as if the entire Mingdou Mountain Range was shaking. The area covered by the brownish-yellow light instantly produced a terrifying explosion. The explosion was deafening, and earth and rocks flew everywhere. The powerful shockwave instantly covered thousands of square meters.

"Defend!" Duke White Tiger shouted. He did not retreat. His first, third, and fifth spirit rings lit up alternately. His already imposing figure instantly grew to nearly twice its original size. He slapped forward with his tiger paws, and a layer of intense white light suddenly spread out from his body, blocking most of the shockwave from the front.

With the White Tiger Duke's strength at the Title Douluo level, this shockwave, though powerful, could not cause him any damage.

However, the energy consumption must have been considerable for him to open the shield to such a wide area.

There was nothing he could do; after all, the princess and her husband were right behind him, and as the marshal of the empire, he had a duty to protect the princess's safety.

The violent roar continued to erupt, the earth cracked, and countless fissures spread in all directions from the epicenter of the explosion.

On one side of the mountain road were sheer cliffs, and on the other side were towering mountain walls. Although the road was relatively wide, after the terrifying explosion, a large number of rocks immediately began to fall from the sky.

The mountains collapsed and the earth cracked!

The White Tiger Guards truly lived up to their reputation as the elite of the elite. Although their individual strength was insignificant in the face of this terrifying explosion that resembled the might of heaven, they gathered together as much as possible. Some of the White Tiger Guards with shields raised their shields to block the shockwaves from the front and the falling rocks from above. The four White Tiger Duke's personal guards also rushed to the front regardless of the consequences, wanting to help the White Tiger Duke share some of the pressure.

Three of them had six spirit rings shining on them, and the last one was even a seven-ring spirit saint. However, the shockwave that erupted from the front was too strong, so strong that they were swept back by the shockwave as soon as they rushed forward.

The members of the Earth Dragon Gate and the Free Gate also released their martial spirits and spirit rings at the same time to resist the shockwave together.

Ji Lin, who had once studied soul tool making but later gave it up, could still recognize that this was a landslide and earth-shattering projectile, a level eight fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell.

Once a soul tool reaches level seven or above, some with special effects will have their own name, especially fixed-mount soul-guided cannons, whose names are incredibly diverse.

The Earth-Shattering Projectile is one of them. It should be in the category of a level 7 fixed-position soul-guided artillery shell, but after adding a special core magic array and materials for stealth and interference resistance, it has stepped into the threshold of level 8.

It has strong penetrating power. It will immediately penetrate into the ground upon landing. With the help of its rare metal with a strong affinity for earth element and the activation of the core magic array, it can penetrate deep into the soil or rock in the shortest time and then unleash a powerful shock.

The moment the shockwave, equivalent to a hundred times that of a stun grenade, explodes like a landslide.

Used to kill enemies, this landslide shell is nothing special among level 8 fixed-position soul-guided shells, but because it is relatively stable, it can also have a stealth effect.

Its effectiveness on the battlefield is quite astonishing, especially in tactical attacks like the one before us.

The enemy's objective is clear: to block their path. It seems that what follows is the main event, while what came before was just an appetizer.

The strongest shockwave from the front had passed, and the White Tiger Duke, still in the air, continuously unleashed a barrage of White Tiger Meteor Showers, shattering the falling rocks one by one.

Wang Dong'er and the others were not idle either. They unleashed all sorts of soul skills, such as the Light of the Butterfly God, the Light of Annihilation, the Golden Dragon Claw, the Holy Spirit Slash, and the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.

With the intervention of experts from the Zizai Sect and the Dilong Sect, although the shockwave was powerful and many flying rocks fell from the sky, the titled Douluo, Duke Baihu, intercepted it with all his might. In addition, Wang Dong'er and others were also quite strong. Despite this series of changes, no one was injured or killed.

Dai Hao raised his hand, and a beam of colorful light shot into the sky. This was a distress signal. He was not far from his military camp. Upon seeing the signal, the experts in the camp would arrive immediately. Moreover, with such a violent explosion, the military camp would definitely be able to detect the commotion, and the rescue would not be too late.

The mountain path ahead had been blasted open, creating a gaping hole hundreds of meters wide. It was impossible to cross on horseback or on foot. Flying across would mean abandoning his small squad of a hundred White Tiger guards. In war, sacrificing foes is common, but the White Tiger Duke did not do so. He considered these guards his true comrades-in-arms and would never easily abandon them. This was why he was more respected in the army than the Star Luo royal family. Therefore, he chose to defend and wait for reinforcements.

As for letting them fly over with a flying soul tool, that's a joke. Not to mention that some of the White Tiger Guards aren't even Soul Masters, with their second or third ring strength, they'd be easy targets in the air. After all, the enemy is hiding in the shadows and can't just stand by and watch them leave safely.

Thanks to Ji Lin's reminder, Duke White Tiger did not step into the ambush zone, which was the only good news.

Just then, streaks of red light suddenly appeared in the distance, carrying a magnificent aura, and covered this area as if they were spreading across the sky.

again!

This time it's a soul-guided high-explosive bomb.

It's confirmed; they are from the Sun Moon Empire. No other force is as arrogant as them.

Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger roared, his body suddenly turning in mid-air, flying towards the high-explosive shells. His fourth soul ring continued to shine, and the White Tiger Meteor Shower, under his control, turned freely like a rapid-fire soul-guided cannon. The large rain of light then turned to meet the massive number of high-explosive shells.

Ji Lin was not one to just take a beating without fighting back. He had been using his mental detection to locate the enemy, but his usually infallible mental detection had failed him at this moment. The opponent must be carrying a soul tool that shields mental power, and it must be of a high level.

Ji Lin held the Heavenly Fire Judgment in his hand, and his seven spirit rings rose one by one. The next moment, the sixth spirit ring shone with a dazzling red light. If you took off Ji Lin's clothes, you would find that there were red spider lily patterns on his back. Ji Lin's body was covered with crimson flames, and his eyes burned with dazzling firelight.

Liehuo Xingjiaoshu's second 100,000-year soul skill from her sixth soul ring: Blazing Asura.

After activating Blazing Asura, a pattern of the other shore flower will appear on Ji Lin's back, and his body will be covered in flames, greatly enhancing his basic abilities. Blazing Asura will also activate Fire-Burning Pupils, but the high temperature of the flames will burn the pupils. However, with Ji Lin's current control over the flames, coupled with the protection of the ultimate ice, this negative effect can be ignored. In the state of activating Fire-Burning Pupils, he can get rid of his dependence on eyesight and, like a viper hunting its prey in the dark, can use heat to sensitively sense his opponents.

After activating his Fiery Eyes, Ji Lin instantly detected his opponent's cultivation level and location.

The enemy's position was as dazzling as a firefly in the dark night.

Hidden in a forest ahead were twelve enemies. According to his mental detection, four of them were at the ninth level of cultivation. In other words, there were four titled Douluo who came to ambush Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, including a ninth-level Soul Master. Otherwise, the previous Mountain Collapse and Earth Shattering Bomb could not have been released by an ordinary person.

Besides the four titled Douluo, the remaining eight people all had a minimum cultivation level of Soul Saint, and there were also four eight-ring Soul Douluo level experts.

The moment Ji Lin spotted his opponent, his fifth spirit ring also lit up red, and Ji Lin raised the Heavenly Fire Judgment in his hand, pointing it at the enemy's hiding place.

As he pointed the Heavenly Judgment of Fire at his enemy, the clouds in the sky began to churn violently, as if stirred by some powerful force. Flames seeped from the clouds, cascading down like a waterfall, turning the entire sky crimson. It was an apocalyptic scene, inspiring fear in all who beheld it.

Immediately afterwards, a colossal flaming sword materialized in mid-air. This sword was a hundred meters long, its blade composed of the purest flames, its tip incredibly sharp, seemingly capable of slicing through anything in its path. It hovered high in the sky, radiating suffocating heat, distorting and warping the surrounding air due to the intense temperature.

Ji Lin's eyes were icy. He pointed the Heavenly Fire Judgment downwards, as if giving a final command to the flaming giant sword. The next moment, the flaming giant sword seemed to receive the order and began to fall rapidly, its speed increasing faster and faster, creating a howling wind that seemed to tear even the air apart.

The flaming greatsword had a clear target: the forest. Under its power, any defense seemed utterly vulnerable. When the flaming greatsword touched the ground, it unleashed a deafening roar, and flames spread like a flood, engulfing everything in a sea of ​​fire.

The forest was instantly reduced to ashes by the impact of the flaming giant sword; wherever the flames raged, all life was extinguished. Ji Lin stood there, his eyes devoid of any pity. Although their target was not them, but Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, they were simply unlucky to have encountered him. However, he did not believe that a single fifth soul skill could defeat his opponent.
