Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 492 Demolition Machines

In the silent night, the blizzard subsided, revealing the devastation left behind by the blizzard.

The ice blades in the hurricane had limited power, but that was only against Soul Masters. For ordinary people, they were still deadly. Although Ji Lin's goal was not to kill the Sun Moon Empire's army, he still didn't know how many Sun Moon Empire soldiers would never be able to crawl out from under their beds again.

Orange's face was extremely grim. Maintaining the linked defensive soul tool array consumed a considerable amount of soul power. The ice blades were nothing, but in the raging storm, maintaining their position required a continuous drain on soul power. In just a short while, all the soul masters had already replenished the soul power of a milk bottle. More importantly, the raging blizzard had dealt a huge blow to morale.

Just then, a deafening roar suddenly rang out not far away. Ju Zi was startled and quickly turned around to look. She saw a figure rushing towards the Sun Moon Empire camp at an astonishing speed.

The figure did not approach the military camp, but instead caused destruction to the surrounding infrastructure. It appeared to be human, but its strength was terrifying, and loud sounds of destruction echoed continuously.

"First squad, take him out." Orange ordered with a dark face. The enemy had finally played their second card. She still had the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps maintain the linked defensive Soul Guidance Array. The series of attacks had already made Orange suffer a lot, and she was now very cautious.

A squad of the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps consists of ten Soul Masters, with at least one Level 6 Soul Master leading the squad, and the rest being Level 4 or above.

Ten Soul Masters quickly approached the person who was destroying the infrastructure, and beams of Soul Guidance Rays were already covering him.

In order to preserve the infrastructure as much as possible, they did not use the more destructive soul-guided shells.

To their surprise, upon seeing their arrival and facing their attacks, the person did not dodge. The scorching soul-guided rays struck him, but they disappeared without even causing a ripple. The person seemed to feel nothing at all, completely ignoring their attacks.

What happened next left them speechless. The figure stood in front of a thick metal pillar, the same metal pillar that the Sun Moon Empire had previously driven into the ground. Each pillar was fifty meters long and was an alloy pillar mixed with rare metals.

With a forceful push, the man simultaneously inserted both hands into the metal pillar. Then, incredibly, he lifted the pillar up on his own and, holding it, swept it towards them like swatting a fly.

The leader of the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor team was utterly horrified. That metal pillar weighed over 100,000 jin! Was that even a human capable of lifting? Just a slight brush against its edge would be enough to crush them into mincemeat!

You should know that when they installed these metal pillars, it took several Soul Masters working together and using special Soul Tools to move them!

"Scatter!" The ten Soul Masters quickly scattered, managing to dodge the fatal blow.

But the man didn't seem to care whether he hit them or not. The huge metal pillar felt as light as a feather in his hands, and he swung it around with ease. With a loud bang, it slammed into a huge shelf next to him.

The metal frame, bearing the heavy blow, immediately collapsed, and the huge drill bit mounted on it fell sideways. The value of such a drill bit was at least one million gold soul coins.

Even Ji Lin felt sorry for them, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't take these machines with him; he didn't have three thousand storage soul tools to hold them. As for keeping them for his own use to mine ore, that was a joke. The only ones who could help him mine ore were the soul beasts of the far north, but these soul beasts didn't know how to use soul tools at all. Letting them use these machines to mine was less efficient than letting them dig with their claws.

"Is he even human?" Looking at that terrifying figure that resembled a demolition machine, the soul masters of the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps all had this thought simultaneously. Even Ju Zi was stunned. Could a human's power reach such a terrifying level? Even a Title Douluo couldn't do that! At least their Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps' vice-leader, Fire Phoenix Douluo, couldn't.

Just then, the man turned around, gripped the metal pillar tightly with both hands, and began to spin in place. He looked like a giant spinning top, and the metal pillar was the blade of this spinning top, an incredibly terrifying blade.

That was definitely more terrifying than the previous blizzard. Wherever the metal storm passed, all the surrounding infrastructure was reduced to fragments and smashed to pieces.

Orange could no longer remain calm and hurriedly shouted, "First and second battalions, enter the position and bombard with heavy artillery! Third, fourth, and reserve teams, maintain the linked soul-guiding shield!"

The Fire Phoenix Soul Guild's Soul Tool Detachment's Soul Tool position was located in the center of the camp. It had been set up long ago, and all the large Soul Tools were located there, including several level-nine Soul Tools.

In that extremely short time, Ju Zi had already determined that the man with terrifying power was at least a Super Douluo, a pure strength-type Super Douluo. Facing a Super Douluo was not something that one or two people could contend with. Considering the previous blizzard, it was impossible to determine how many enemies there were. At least the strength-type Soul Master in front of her didn't seem like someone who could control wind and snow. This was just a pure brute. How could he possibly pull off such a high-level maneuver as a blizzard?

Now they can only cope by using linked defensive soul tools in conjunction with soul tool positions.

Undoubtedly, her response was correct. However, at that moment, the Fire Phoenix Douluo hovering beside her suddenly gasped, looked up at the sky, and said, "Captain, look, what's that?"

Orange subconsciously looked up, and in that instant, she was stunned. High in the sky, a ball of ice-blue light was constantly brightening in their sight. This ball of light almost illuminated the entire sky, as if the moon had suddenly fallen from the sky and was hurtling straight toward them. Its terrifying momentum made them have no doubt about its power.

So there really are other people behind this blizzard?

"Quickly, concentrate firepower to defend against the aerial attack."

Orange gave the order almost without hesitation, and quickly took out her soul-guided cannon to launch an attack into the sky.

"boom--!"

Just then, a loud roar caused Orange's body, which was inside the linked defense array, to shake violently. The entire linked defense array trembled violently, and many soul masters did not even hear what her command was.

Although two hundred Soul Masters left to go to the Soul Tool site, there were still three hundred people maintaining this linked defense array! The fact that it was shaken to such an extent shows how powerful it was.

Orange looked in the direction from which the tremor came, and what she saw was a huge metal pillar that had just been bounced back. She immediately understood that the culprit of the metal storm had thrown the metal pillar out to crash into their direction.

The massive metal pillar, fifty meters long, combined with the force generated by its high-speed rotation, made its impact so terrifying. Even inside the linked defensive shield, some level four soul masters were shaken to the point of turning pale, and a few even suffered injuries and coughed up blood.

In that short delay, the enormous ice-blue sphere of light in the sky drew ever closer, arriving in an instant like a mountain pressing down on us.

At this time, the first and second squadrons of soul masters who went down to enter the soul guidance position had not yet fully taken their positions.

"Attack! Quickly, attack the air! Don't worry about the person below!" Ju Zi shouted, and her soul-guided cannon launched an attack into the air.

Although she didn't know what the huge ball of light was, she could clearly sense that if it were to fall, the entire soul tool array would probably be destroyed. At this point, ordinary soldiers would be of no use, and she, who was in command of the Fire Phoenix Soul Tool Corps, felt somewhat stretched thin.

Fire Phoenix Douluo hovered beside Ju Zi, raised his hands upwards, and with a flash of light, took out a strange soul tool in the shape of a phoenix, which was entirely golden and red, from his storage soul tool.

This soul tool wasn't large, but as soon as it appeared, it emitted a scorching aura, and its intense golden-red light illuminated the surrounding area with every detail.

The fire phoenix was extremely exquisite, and its eyes were like rubies, so lifelike that it seemed to be a real phoenix.

With a solemn expression, Fire Phoenix Douluo slowly lifted it up, and then, in a flash, she left the linked defensive soul guidance array.

A strong, fiery red light emanated from her body, accompanied by the appearance of rings of spirit energy. Her fiery wings spread out, and the intense flames converged on the spirit tool in her hand like a vast ocean.

At this moment, the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps demonstrated its elite capabilities. Under Ju Zi's command, the three hundred Soul Masters in the air swiftly unleashed their attacks.

Three hundred fiery red rays shot out almost simultaneously, condensing into a single beam in the air and heading straight for the falling ball of light. Defense and attack can be linked, which is what makes the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Master Legion so terrifying.

"Boom—" A violent roar exploded in the air. The huge ice-blue light sphere trembled, but its light suddenly became even stronger. It actually continued to fall downwards, facing the coordinated soul guidance attack of the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps, although its falling speed was slightly reduced.

The girls of the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Team were utterly shocked by this situation.
