Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 882 A Devastating Victory (4K)

But is a war machine that can withstand a single blow from a Douluo at the pinnacle of the Unity of Heaven and Man realm so easily destroyed?

Products from Mingdetang are guaranteed to be of the highest quality!

The Sun Moon Empire once relied on Mingdetang's soul tools to achieve great success in many places, but this time it suffered a bitter lesson and truly realized the value of the saying "Mingdetang's products are always of the highest quality".

A mechanical behemoth with a construction cost of over 10 billion gold soul coins was built specifically to withstand all types of soul skills on the battlefield.

In Mingde Hall's contingency plan, once Experiment Subject No. 1 can be successfully deployed to the battlefield, it will only have one name—Land Destroyer.

The pure power of the Limit Douluo is indeed beyond what Experiment Subject No. 1 can withstand, but what about the various rays that are specifically designed to attack Soul Masters?

"Sizzle—sizzle—"

Inside the control cabin, Huo Yuhao listened to various lasers and cannonballs exploding on the surface of Experiment Subject No. 1, constantly performing self-checks. Only then did he discover with astonishment that Experiment Subject No. 1's defensive capabilities against various soul tools were simply ridiculously exaggerated!

The attack by the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps was not entirely ineffective; at least they destroyed the triple-mounted super-powerful laser soul-guided laser cannon, ten strategic missile launchers, and eight twin 155mm soul-guided gun turrets on Experiment Subject One.

The key issue is that these devices are just empty shells. Mingdetang hasn't even figured out how Experiment Subject One can move yet, so how could these weapons be installed?

As for Huo Yuhao, he has no way of implementing these soul tools. He simply doesn't have the technology for them, so what's the point of implementing them?

It could be said that the damage caused to Experiment Subject One by the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps' two volleys of fire, fired without any regard for the overall economic cost, was probably less than what they had accomplished.

"Soldiers, charge! Kill!!!"

At this moment, the Heavenly Soul Emperor clenched his fists. Only when he saw that Huo Yuhao was unharmed after two rounds of salvo, and even had the strength to extend a mechanical arm to try to pry him out of the wall, did the heavy weight in his heart finally lift.

At this moment, he was no longer the emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire, but one of the countless soldiers of the Heavenly Soul Empire who fought bloody battles to protect his homeland!

"oh!!!!"

The remaining soldiers saw His Majesty leading the charge, and then they saw the Dragon Emperor Douluo being suppressed by the Imperial Tutor, and Huo Yuhao, who was unharmed despite being focused on by the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps. Their previously low morale was instantly boosted!

Outside the tent, after the smoke and dust cleared, seeing Huo Yuhao unharmed and Subject Number One, Ju Zi almost collapsed to the ground.

Her heart was in turmoil at that moment, both wondering why Huo Yuhao hadn't died and feeling relieved that he was still alive.

At this point, the battle had reached a fever pitch.

Both sides' Soul Masters and Soul Instructors have seen their Soul Power drop below the midline, resulting in a surge in casualties and a sharp increase in the death toll.

The frequency of attacks from the soul-guided cannons on the city walls of the Heavenly Soul Empire decreased again and again.

From the initial barrage of thousands of cannons, only a mere hundred or so remain, still spewing fire.

On the Sun Moon Empire's soul tool field, the powerful soul tools had long since fallen silent.

They have also changed their strategy from directly attacking the city walls of Tiandou City to using a large number of soul-guided rays to bombard the invading enemy.

It can be said that both sides have reached their limit after fighting like this.

Relying on a large stockpile of sealed milk bottles and fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells, the Sun Moon Empire gained a slight advantage.

Unfortunately, due to the unstable factor of the Soul Palace, the Heavenly Soul Empire's reserves of healing supplies are not small!

On the battlefield, countless severed limbs and broken arms were scattered everywhere, and crimson blood had gathered into rivers, staining the soil red.

But the warriors of the Heavenly Soul Empire were still wielding their weapons, their eyes filled with madness and hatred, launching suicidal charges against the Sun Moon Empire's soul tool positions time and time again.

Faced with this fearless and monstrous army, the soldiers of the Sun Moon Empire were generally terrified.

What kind of force is supporting them?

If the fighting continues like this, Ju Zi doesn't know when the Heavenly Soul Empire's army will collapse.

However, if the casualties of one's own army exceed 10% and climb toward 20%, it may cause a mutiny and rout of the entire army.

If that time really comes, it will probably be a huge blow to the entire Eastern Expedition plan.

She dared not gamble anymore.

Even though Orange was confident that her elite troops would not cause any problems.

But she dared not gamble that the other units would not have problems.

We'd rather let Tiandou City go than let the overall plan be affected.

She absolutely did not believe that the Heavenly Soul Empire could replicate today's battle.

She will no longer give Huo Yuhao the chance to ambush Dragon Emperor Douluo. Without Huo Yuhao as a troublemaker, she can still win.

A deep, mournful bugle call sounded.

This is the signal for the Sun Moon Empire to sound the retreat.

Countless high-level soul-guided shells exploded at the front line of the soul-guided weapon position, covering the retreat of their own side while taking away one fresh life after another.

Everyone in the Sun and Moon Empire breathed a sigh of relief and retreated like a tide, leaving behind a mess and craters.

The Heavenly Soul Empire did not order a pursuit, but instead retreated back to the city.

Both sides tacitly stopped fighting, collected the bodies of their fallen comrades, and took away the wounded ones.

There was no cheering, no excitement.

Everyone felt only one word in their hearts—heaviness.

This is a battle with no winners.

Neither the Sun Moon Empire nor the Heavenly Soul Empire won.

The emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire sat slumped on the city wall, his back against the wall, his eyes tightly closed, and his facial muscles twitching incessantly.

Tian Dou City has probably been saved.

But what should become of this vast Heavenly Soul Empire?

Huo Yuhao finally managed to pull himself out of the city wall. Looking back, the once magnificent Tian Dou City was now riddled with holes.

The hole he made by crashing into it was barely a small pit compared to the walls of Tiandou City at that time.

With a long sword forged from the Ice Extreme Crystal as a crutch, Huo Yuhao struggled to climb the city wall, gazing at the retreating Sun and Moon Army and the tragic scene on the battlefield.

This was the first time Huo Yuhao had witnessed such a fierce war. Even when the Inner Court launched a large-scale invasion of Ashina Castle, there had never been such a devastating scene.

Black soil and red blood covered the land beneath the city walls. The earth was cracked and the city walls were shattered. The traces left by various soul-guided shells and soul-guided rays were shocking.

Tian Dou City was temporarily defended, but Tian Hun's side also lost more than half of its Soul Master Corps.

Even with the support of numerous invincible shields, the main body sect still suffered more than 30% casualties, including two titled experts who died, and more than a hundred of its core members, such as Soul Emperors, Soul Saints, and Soul Douluos, were killed or injured.

Huo Yuhao slumped on the city wall, looking somewhat bewildered. Black smoke was still billowing from the left side of the mecha, and there were occasional crackling noises.

When will the war finally end?
