Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 264 The Nine Star Palace's Counterattack

After losing two Soul Douluos in succession, the other four Soul Douluos were also forced to retreat under the enemy's attacks.

For most Soul Masters, becoming a Soul Douluo is an unattainable goal. Now, their own Soul Douluo powerhouses are being suppressed by the enemy, causing the morale of the Spirit Hall's Soul Master Legion to plummet.

"Fight back! Annihilate all these villains who dare to destroy our home!"

On the city wall, Xiao Yu keenly seized the opportunity and sounded the horn for a counterattack.

The Sunset Forest holds too many secrets of the Nine Star Palace, an excellent training ground for the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes, immortal herbs, and medicine and pill refining. He doesn't want the flames of war to spread to the castle.

"kill--"

Amidst a deafening roar, the Nine Star Palace Soul Masters launched a full-scale attack. Although their numbers were fewer than those of the attacking Spirit Hall, the momentum they unleashed was something that the Spirit Hall Soul Masters could never match.

Compared to the Spirit Hall's swarm attack, the Nine Star Hall's counterattack showed more military sophistication. Although Xiao Yu in his previous life had only occasionally read a few military theory books in his spare time, in this world where even a simple tactic of stealing grain could be touted as a brilliant strategy, this theoretical knowledge was sufficient.

The Soul Masters of the Nine Star Palace are organized into teams of one hundred. Each team is led by a Soul Emperor or higher. Under the leadership of their team leaders, they are like sharp knives that charge into the crowd and wreak havoc.

Among them, the most outstanding performer was Huo Wu, who was about to break through to the Soul Douluo level. A layer of brilliant fiery red light enveloped her tall figure, and one fireball after another was released from her body, exploding in the crowd of Spirit Hall Soul Masters in front of her. Each explosion brought up a cloud of blood mist, and screams rose and fell one after another.

"Disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect, stop her!"

The speaker was Huyan Gong, an elder of the Elephant Armor Sect, a Soul Saint of level seventy-two.

Because most of the core members of the Elephant Armor Sect were taken away by the sect leader Huyan Zhen to attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Elephant Armor Sect disciples attacking the Nine Star Palace were relatively weak.

Under Huyan Gong's stern shout, more than twenty Diamond Mammoth Soul Masters, whose cultivation was only at the Soul King or Soul Sect level, rushed towards Huo Wu with shouts. Huo Wu punched them one by one, turning them into dust as if they were made of mud and paper. In just one or two minutes, not a single one of these more than twenty Elephant Armor Sect disciples was left alive.

"Damn it!"

Huyan Gong cursed angrily and personally went to deal with Huo Wu. A layer of earthy yellow light burst out from his body, and seven spirit rings, two yellow, three purple, and two black, rose up as he charged towards Huo Wu.

"Old man, you and your disciples are all the same, utterly vulnerable!"

Huo Wu spoke sarcastically, but she didn't dare to be careless. The Diamond Mammoth's defense was known throughout the world, and she didn't want to lose face in front of so many people.

In an instant, Huo Wu's aura surged, her last ten-thousand-year soul ring lit up, and her martial soul true form was activated. Her already tall figure grew even taller, giving her a striking presence among the crowd.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Fiery Dance of the Sun!"

A rich concentration of fire elemental energy condensed in Huo Wu's hands, eventually coalescing into a small sphere of light.

Huo Wu flicked her hand, and the ball of light flew out like lightning, slamming hard into Hu Yan Gong's burly body.

"what!"

The moment the ball of light touched Huyan Gong, it exploded instantly. The terrifying flames, which were infinitely close to the ultimate fire, instantly engulfed Huyan Gong. The scorching flames burned his body and stimulated his sense of pain, causing Huyan Gong to let out the most shrill scream.

"Goodbye, old man!"

Huo Wu raised her long legs, leaped high, and kicked Hu Yan Gong in the forehead.

Huyan Gong, who was burning in agony from the flames, had no ability to defend himself. With a crisp cracking sound, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground.

Besides Huo Wu, the original members of the Nine Star Team, including Eden, Zi Long, Yi Hui, Cang Mo, Rong Dou, Yuna, Dugu Yan, Xie Wu, and Yi Ao, also performed exceptionally well. Although they did not undergo three years of trials in the Underworld, a different space that was free from the rules of Douluo Star, like Huo Wu, they still managed to reach the Soul Emperor level or above. In particular, Eden, Zi Long, and Yi Hui, with their extraordinary talent and final training in the Underworld, successfully advanced to the Soul Saint level.

Buzz! ! !

Just as the Nine Star Palace Soul Masters were advancing triumphantly, a buzzing sound suddenly rang out across the battlefield. Many Soul Masters were drawn by the sound and couldn't help but look up, only to see hundreds of Soul Masters suddenly appearing in the sky, all dressed in yellow robes and green garments.

"Is this the Sparrow Bee Sect, recently promoted by the Spirit Hall?"

Soon, someone recognized the origins of these Soul Masters.

Just then, the Sparrow Bee Sect Soul Masters high in the sky suddenly launched a coordinated attack. Countless stingers rained down like a torrential downpour, catching the Nine Star Palace Soul Masters who were bravely advancing off guard. A large number of them fell to the ground instantly.

"The Min Clan, ascend!"

Before the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters could even rejoice, over two hundred Soul Masters from the Nine Star Hall suddenly took to the air. Leading them was an extremely beautiful young woman, tall and well-proportioned, with a graceful and slender figure. Four Soul Rings, two yellow and two purple, surrounded her on either side. She was none other than Bai Chenxiang, the eldest daughter of the Min Clan.

The Swift Spirit is the fastest flying spirit among bird spirits, and all the spirit rings of the Agile Clan only have the single attribute of speed. It can be said that no sect in the world dares to compete with the Agile Clan in terms of speed.

Originally, the lack of offensive power was the biggest weakness of the Min clan, but since they joined the Nine Star Palace, Xiao Yu has equipped them with a complete set of soul tools, making up for this biggest deficiency of the Min clan.

"Soul tool, load, fire!"

At Bai Chenxiang's command, countless beams of soul power erupted from the soul tools in their hands.

"Oh no, defend now!"

The leading elder of the Sparrow Bee Sect shouted loudly, and the Sparrow Bee Sect's soul masters in the rear had seen firsthand the great casualties caused to the attacking Spirit Hall soul masters by the soul guide beams fired from the city wall.

However, the Min Clan's attack speed was too fast. In an instant, the rays emitted by the soul tool had already landed among the Sparrow Bee Clan's crowd, instantly piercing through the bodies of the Sparrow Bee Clan's soul masters. Countless bodies exploded instantly, and a dazzling blood dance instantly rose into the sky. Blood rained down on the ground, staining the land with a bewitching red.

"Continue the attack!"

The Min clan's attacks did not stop, and the dying screams echoed from high above. In just a short while, the Sparrow Bee Clan had already suffered more than half its losses.
