Douluo Continent: I got the Sharingan at the start!

First, as I mentioned before, throughout the entire competition, each contestant can only use the one soul tool they created. Therefore, how to maximize their strength under these limited conditions is a question that each contestant needs to seriously consider.

He paused, then continued, "Secondly, during the process of creating the soul tool, the contestants must also pay attention to controlling their soul power and energy consumption, as this will directly affect their performance in the subsequent skills test and combat phase."

He concluded by emphasizing, "In short, to stand out in this highly competitive competition and ultimately stand on the champion's podium, every contestant needs to develop a meticulous plan from the very beginning and be prepared to face all kinds of challenges!"

However, what they didn't know was that the three major underground forces all valued this championship highly.

Moreover, the Ordinary Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce seemed to be joining forces to fight against the Xishui Alliance. Therefore, the three parties held countless consultations regarding the format of the final competition before finally reaching this conclusion.

The goal is to rely as much as possible on the strength of the representatives of the two sides' Soul Masters to complete the competition.

Of course, overall, the Ordinary Alliance and the Audu Chamber of Commerce still had the advantage. After all, they had six people, which made tactical arrangements much easier.

After Chen An finished his introduction, Nangong Wan's expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "The three of you."

You are representing our Xishui Alliance in this competition. We have great confidence in the abilities of the three of you.

However, you must be prepared to face two other companies simultaneously. They are very likely to tailor their tactics to our side.

Since you've contributed to our Xishui Alliance, we won't let you three work so hard for nothing. Whoever among you wins the final championship, our Xishui Alliance will provide a separate reward.

I believe this reward is something that neither the Ordinary Alliance nor the Aodu Chamber of Commerce could possibly offer.

Moreover, it will be paid for on the spot. Someone, bring the goods up here.

As soon as Nangong Wan finished speaking, he raised his right hand, his powerful arm drawing a sharp arc in the air.

As he moved, four men in black filed in through the side door in perfect unison. Their steps were steady and synchronized, like those of well-trained soldiers.

On their broad shoulders, they carried a huge black box. The box was made of some unknown material; it was completely black, without a trace of reflection, and its four sides were tightly wrapped with metal strips, exuding an aura of mystery and solemnity.

The four men in black were all tall and muscular, clearly handpicked strong men. Yet even they struggled to lift the box, fine beads of sweat forming on their foreheads, their thick arms trembling slightly, indicating that the box was heavier than expected.

Han Yu's gaze was drawn to the unexpected box, and a sense of curiosity arose in his heart. He subconsciously released his spiritual power, attempting to penetrate the box and find out what was inside.

The mental energy that was once invincible now seemed to have hit an invisible wall, completely blocked and unable to advance an inch.

Not only that, but a portion of his mental energy was also reflected back, causing him a slight stinging sensation. "Hiss—, this is…"

Nangong Wan's actions made Han Yu's heart beat a little faster.

He squinted, carefully examining the box, a multitude of thoughts flashing through his mind. Relying on his years of keen sensitivity to metal, Han Yu made a judgment almost instantly:

This box is definitely not simple! Inside, there should be a thick layer of lead. This special metal can effectively prevent the leakage of various odors, which seems to be to protect the contents of the box from external interference.

The outer layer is made of steel mixed with mithril. This alloy is far harder than ordinary metals, adding to its mystery and weight.

Judging from the effort the strong men put into carrying it, Han Yu estimated that the box weighed at least 500 to 1,000 jin (approximately 250 to 500 kilograms).

What exactly is this thing that warrants such elaborate efforts to seal it with pure lead and mithril? Han Yu's heart was filled with curiosity.

Not only him, but Yuan Gungun and Huang Zheng (number 96) were also completely captivated by the box. All three of them stared intently at the box, their eyes filled with surprise and confusion.

Although they lacked the ability to detect with their minds, as experienced Soul Masters, their perception of metals was quite keen. The mithril aura mixed in with the steel essence clearly conveyed a message: precious! Incredibly precious!

The heavy box was slowly placed in front of the three people. Nangong Wan walked to the box, raised his right hand, and gently pressed it against the side of the box. With a soft "click," a small screen popped out from the side of the box, displaying complex runes and emitting faint fluctuations of soul power.

Nangong Wan placed his palm on the screen, and his five fingers danced like elves, rapidly tapping the runes on the screen at a frequency that was difficult for the naked eye to perceive.

Han Yu's pupils suddenly contracted, and a word flashed through her mind: "Soul Guide Code High Explosive Box!"

He had seen records of such boxes in ancient books; they were special devices that used soul-guided technology combined with special codes to seal items.

The box can only be opened by striking the password in a specific rhythm and order set in advance; otherwise, the high-explosive soul guide inside will be detonated, causing massive damage.

The High Explosive Soul Guidance Box, as its name suggests, will trigger the explosion of the high-explosive soul guidance device inside if the password is entered incorrectly, generating terrifying power.

Of course, to avoid accidents, these boxes usually have a few chances to prevent incorrect input, so they won't explode on the first try, but at most no more than five.

These boxes are typically used to store confidential documents or valuable items, and are considered highly classified.

Don't underestimate this box; its complex internal structure and sophisticated soul guidance technology are enough to make it reach the level of a sixth-grade soul tool.

From the moment Nangong Wan placed his palm on the box, Han Yu's mental energy became highly concentrated.

With his powerful mental strength, he completely memorized the high-speed tapping frequency of the Nangong Bowl, attempting to crack the code of this Soul Guidance Code High-Explosive Box.

Although it may not be useful, it's always an opportunity to write it down.

The tapping lasted for about twenty seconds before Nangong Wan lifted his hand again, and the screen retracted.

With a soft "crackling" sound, the top of the box slowly cracked open, starting from the center.

The Third Elder next to Nangong Wan raised his hand, and a semi-circular protective shield enveloped everyone, including himself and the eliminated number ninety-eight, Merck.

Just as the box had only cracked open, Han Yu and the other two gasped in shock once again.

They also understood why the Third Elder had sealed it with a protective shield.

An indescribable aura of war and death emanated from the box almost the instant it was opened.

In an instant, apart from the Third Elder and Nangong Wan who seemed unharmed, Han Yu, Yuan Gungun, Huang Zheng, and Mo Ke all turned pale, their eyes revealing intense shock.

Among them, Han Yu, who had the strongest mental strength, was the one who felt it the most deeply. Precisely because of his strong mental strength, he was also the one who suffered the greatest impact.

He felt as if he were facing a steel torrent composed of a million soldiers, a torrent of steel rushing towards him with a frenzied killing intent.

It almost caused his soul to break down.

A faint golden light rippled across his entire body, and his Sharingan martial spirit was instantly activated, barely managing to stabilize his mind.

However, Han Yu also used her mimicry soul skill in time, preventing her true soul ring situation from being revealed to everyone.

"This is..." Yuan Gungun exclaimed. After uttering this, he remembered his promise to Han Yu and quickly fell silent. But the shock in his eyes was even more intense.

At this point, the box had completely cracked open, revealing its interior.

The inside is filled with a special filler called jade glue.

It is pure white like jade, but extremely tough and flexible, and is generally used as a cushion and pad.

Right in the center of those pieces of jade glue used for filling, there was something.

It is about 1.5 meters long, cylindrical, with a conical front end and a ring-shaped groove at the rear end.

It is seamless and appears as a single, unified piece.

Its pale gold body is full of metallic luster.

The violent and rampant killing intent emanated from it, and it seemed to be growing stronger. Even just facing it, Han Yu and the other three felt a sense of dread.

Merck swallowed hard, muttering, "This...this is?"

Huang Zheng could no longer remain calm and exclaimed, "Level nine, fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shell!"

What does a level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell mean?

Being rated as level nine means that it is itself a level nine soul tool.

It's also a level nine soul tool that's essentially a one-time consumable. When paired with a level nine soul cannon, it can even strike targets across half a continent.

Even without a level nine soul-guided cannon, it can be detonated at close range, provided that the person detonating it has a way to escape instantly. Otherwise, they will surely be annihilated, body and soul.

The destructive power of a level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball is enough to make even a Super Douluo pale in fear. If an ordinary Title Douluo were to face one head-on, there would be no other possibility but death.

The Level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell is currently only manufactured by the Sun Moon Empire.

As for the exact number, only the top leaders know, but the quantity is definitely not large.

Why do so many powerful figures from the Body Sect, Shrek Academy, and Star Luo Empire turn pale when talking about the Sun Moon Empire's blockade of Mingdu and choose the unknown west as a breakthrough point?

It's not that they didn't consider the possibility of danger in the west; it's that they dared not take the risk from the other three directions!

In those three directions, it can be confirmed that there are at least five level-nine fixed-position soul-guided shells in each direction.

Once locked onto by a terrifying being of this level, even a Title Douluo would be absolutely unable to stop it.

Even more terrifying is that the level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell has an extremely large attack range.

Once it explodes, it destroys an entire space, not just a single point.

Five level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells were positioned in the same direction, a sight that even a powerful figure like Elder Xuan would be wary of.

Perhaps he has the ability to rush over? But he can't protect those around him.

For anyone, a level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell is priceless. Han Yu and his companions never expected this.

In order to win this competition, Xi Shui Meng actually offered this prize.

Originally, the message Chen An gave to Han Yu was just about some betting splits.

The existence of this shell alone is more powerful than any other reward.

Because this is something that cannot be measured by money, and it cannot be bought!

Han Yu once heard Xuan Ziwen say that even in the Sun Moon Empire, the number of level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells would not exceed fifty.

Some are in the open, while others are in the shadows.

Only the Emperor of the Empire knew the exact number.

But one thing is certain: a single level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell is enough to destroy a small city.

Two of them, and a medium-sized city would be finished.

Even a continental capital of Mingdu's scale, the largest city in the continent, could not withstand the impact of more than ten cannonballs.

This shows how terrifying it is.

The fact that the Sun Moon Empire dared to confront the three kingdoms of the former Douluo Continent with only a small territory, and was never invaded by them, is largely due to the Level 9 Soul-Fixing Missile.

The Evening Water Alliance, or rather the Holy Spirit Cult, is truly incredibly capable.

This is a national strategic weapon, and they actually managed to get one.

Even with Han Yu's unwavering resolve, she couldn't help but be moved, and the light in her eyes became burning.

For him, this was more than just a shell; it was a sample.

If we can thoroughly study it, the Body Sect will also have the possibility of producing level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannons.

At least it's much easier to make a breakthrough with Teacher Xuan!

But is this fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shell really that easy to obtain?

Is the championship of this competition more important than this cannonball?

"I'm sure you've all figured it out, haven't you?" Nangong Wan smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over Han Yu and the other three, finally settling on Mo Ke's face with a hint of unspoken meaning. "That's right, this is a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell."

The moment he finished speaking, Merck couldn't help but gasp, his eyes filled with greed and longing. A level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell—that was a terrifying weapon capable of changing the course of a battle. If only he could possess it…

"Its name is Destruction Storm." Nangong Wan's voice was deep and powerful, as if carrying an invisible pressure that made everyone present feel a jolt.

Destruction Storm! Just hearing that name is enough to conjure up images of its terrifying, world-destroying power. Han Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and a ripple of emotion stirred within her.

"As for its specific effects and usage..." Nangong Wan deliberately drawled, a sly glint in his eyes, "you'll only find out from me when one of you is capable of winning the final championship." (End of Chapter)
