Sun-Moon Empire, Rising City!
The Soul Masters here had been fighting the sea soul beasts for quite a while. If it weren't for the timely assistance dispatched by the Sun-Moon Empire, Rising City would have likely fallen to these sea soul beasts long ago!
Atop the city walls, Soul Masters looking at the approaching sea soul beasts had grim faces, saying, "When will this ever end? Although we have support from other Soul Masters, these sea soul beasts are like cockroaches that can't be completely eliminated!"
"Damn it! Even that Hyper Douluo couldn't handle the Sea Princess. If she personally strikes against us, I'm afraid it'll be hard to defend!"
"Enough talk, another wave of sea soul beasts is coming. Prepare to bombard!"
As soon as the words dropped, they immediately charged their soul tools again, firing countless devastating shells at the incoming sea soul beasts...
Under the dense bombardment, the sea soul beasts didn't bother to dodge, relying on their own bodies to resist, even if it meant being reduced to one corpse after another!
Their mission was to follow the command of the Lord of the Ice Sea, the Sea Princess, to breach the entirety of Rising City!
On the other side, the two Hyper Douluo and one Titled Douluo locked in combat with the Sea Princess were gasping for breath...
One of the Titled Douluo clutched his chest, where severe pain was emanating, and spat out a mouthful of blood with a "puh"...
The Blazing Sun Douluo next to him hurriedly supported him, asking, "How are you? Are you okay?"
The former shook his head, "I'm fine..."
The last Hyper Douluo said gravely, "The Sea Princess is more powerful than the rumors say, especially now that we are within this sea area, her strength has greatly increased!"
They knew very well that the three of them combined could not defeat the Sea Princess, and at best, they could only stall for time!
The Sea Princess, with scorn in her eyes, looked at the three Titled Douluo in front of her and sneered, "What's the matter, humans? Are you already incapable? Just die quietly!"
The Blazing Sun Douluo focused on the wounds on the Sea Princess's body and coldly said, "Really? Aren't you also severely injured?"
The Sea Princess glanced at the scars on her body with mockery and said, "Severely injured? Humans, you think too highly of yourselves!"
With that, she raised her hands and softly said, "Spirit of the Sea Water!"
A beautiful song then began to resonate from her lips, and the entire surrounding waterbody started to glow with a sky-blue fluorescence...
Immediately after, countless particles separated from the water and surged towards the Sea Princess's delicate body...
In an instant, completely covered by the particles, all the wounds on her body rapidly faded away, leaving no trace of injury...
A few seconds later, the Sea Princess had completely recovered from her injuries...
The three onlookers were stunned and exclaimed, "What... what? She can actually self-recover!"
"How is this possible! We had already inflicted severe injuries on her, yet she can use the power of the sea to recover!"
"The only way now is to destroy this waterbody. It shouldn't be easy for her to create such a massive field," they said.
With that, the three immediately shifted their target from the Sea Princess's delicate body to the sea area...
If they could destroy this waterbody, it would not only prevent the Sea Princess from recovering her injuries but also weaken the sea soul beasts, reducing their advantage and strength!
One of the Titled Douluo's fourth soul rings lit up beneath his feet...
He commanded in a cold voice, "Fourth Soul Skill, Earth Rock."
Then, he stretched out his palms and fiercely slammed them down towards the waterbody below...
The entire waterbody erupted with a series of deafening blasts, as countless stones burst forth from the earth's crust, separating the waters of the area...
And those sea soul beasts, without the boost of the flow domain, had significantly reduced mobility and agility; they became nothing but live targets in front of the soul tools!
Upon seeing this scene, the Sea Princess's beautiful eyes suddenly narrowed as she coldly shouted, "You bastards, courting death!"
The next moment, a massive spiritual impact erupted from her and blasted toward the Title Douluo who was using a soul skill to isolate the flow domain...
A Hyper Douluo's fifth soul ring lit up beneath his feet as he quietly muttered, "Shield of Life!"
A shield nearly four to five meters in size appeared in his hands, perfectly blocking the incoming spiritual impact...
But the terrifying recoil still forced him to take several steps back...
The Blazing Sun Douluo said solemnly, "You continue to alter the terrain; we two will hold him off!"
Their Soul Power was running low, and if this continued, they would have no choice but to retreat...
The Title Douluo nodded, "Understood!"
…
Inside the Sun-Moon Empire's grand hall...
Xu Tianran's eyes glanced at the ministers, who were bowing before him, and inquired, "How is the situation at Rising City?"
Despite it being merely a minor sea soul beast beast tide, he had already dispatched nearly three thousand soul masters equipped with soul tools, as well as two Hyper Douluos and a Title Douluo for support!
Yet, no good news had arrived thus far...
The ministers exchanged glances, all bowing their heads in silence, not daring to speak...
Xu Tianran's gaze grew colder, "A bunch of useless things!"
The ministers bowed their heads even lower, fearing Xu Tianran would vent his anger on them...
Meanwhile, Juzi, standing behind Xu Tianran, spoke softly, "Your Majesty the Emperor, I think we shouldn't blame them for this. Perhaps this sea soul beast tide is not simple. Could it be possible that it is orchestrated by a ferocious beast on par with those in the Aquipeia Forest...?"
Xu Tianran furrowed his brows, "Juzi... are you suggesting the Sea Princess?"
Among the soul beasts around the Ice Sea, with the strength of a ferocious beast and no goodwill towards humans, only the Sea Princess came to mind!
Only she had the power to rally the soul beasts of the Ice Sea...
Grateful, the ministers looked toward Juzi with admiration, not skimping on their praise, "As expected of Fleet Admiral Juzi, always so meticulous in thought!"
"Does Fleet Admiral have any solution? Could you please enlighten us?"
"With Fleet Admiral's wisdom, you must have already devised a method of resolution, right?"
Juzi glanced at the ministers with her beautiful eyes and said indifferently, "Your Majesty, I believe that relying on the soul master army or high-level combatants to make the Sea Princess back down is impossible. So, let's conduct bombing with a ninth-grade soul guidance device!"
Xu Tianran hesitated, "But..."
The ninth-grade soul guidance devices crafted by Mirror Dust were originally intended for bombing the high-level combatants of the other two great empires!
If they were used now, wouldn't that disrupt her plans?
As if she had read Xu Tianran's thoughts, the corners of Juzi's mouth lifted slightly, "Don't worry, whether the two empires accept our peace talks also requires time, enough for Mingde Hall to replenish the missiles!"
Xu Tianran immediately spoke, "I agree! Let's do as you say and bomb them using the ninth-grade soul guidance device!"
