Chapter 230: Bombing Spirit City
"Hmph!"
Bibi Dong, incredibly clever, could not fail to discern Dai Tianxing's rhetoric, merely seeking a legitimate justification for attacking Spirit Hall.
Ostensibly a quest for revenge for the fallen Star Luo warriors, it was, in reality, a tactic of attacking Wei to save Zhao.
Realizing Dai Tianxing's intentions, Bibi Dong steeled herself, a visible hint of murderous intent flashing in her beautiful eyes. Her expression, once shrouded in a sneer, drooped completely. Her red lips parted, and she spoke in a chilling, chilling tone that instilled fear.
"Dai Tianxing, it seems you two are hell-bent on going to war with Spirit Hall, aren't you?"
Sensing the murderous intent gushing from Bibi Dong, Dai Tianxing's expression darkened, and he thought to himself, "Oh no! It seems Bibi Dong is even more powerful than I imagined. I wonder if she can withstand the White Tiger Legion's bombardment."
If the White Tiger Legion's intensive bombardment proved ineffective, then they would likely have no choice but to fight this cold-blooded woman to the death.
Although a hint of fear lingered in his heart for Bibi Dong, Dai Tianxing maintained a forced smile and chuckled softly.
"I'm just giving someone a taste of their own medicine. What's wrong with that? Your Holiness, aren't you right?"
"Yes! That's right!" Bibi Dong sneered, her eyes brimming with murderous intent. "Since that's the case, shall we face it on the battlefield?"
"In that case, I won't hold back. This first battle is the decisive one, and it will determine the outcome!"
With that, Dai Tianxing and his wife summoned their soul power, leaped, and dashed back, putting some distance between them and Bibi Dong, fearing she might betray their martial virtues and launch a surprise attack, leaving the Star Luo Empire vulnerable.
Retreating to the side of the Lie Tianhu, Dai Tianxing gritted his teeth, steeled his resolve, and issued an order.
"General Tianhu, you may begin the siege now! Order the White Tiger Legion to fire their artillery. Raze Spirit City to the ground!"
"As you command!" Lie Tianhu nodded emphatically, then drew the sharp blade from his waist, pointed it toward the heavens, and roared across the vast expanse.
"White Tiger Legion! Prepare!"
A furious roar echoed through the heavens. Upon hearing Lie Tianhu's command, the White Tiger Legion's artillerymen sprang into action, hastily lighting torches.
As for the shells, they were already loaded the moment they were brought aboard. At Lie Tianhu's command, five thousand artillery pieces would fire simultaneously, bombarding Spirit City.
Seeing this, Bibi Dong's tone was also stern. With one command, a thousand words dissolved into a single word.
"Kill!!!"
"Kill!"
"Charge!"
Receiving Bibi Dong's command, thousands of spirit masters unleashed their spirits, possessed their bodies, summoned their weapon spirits, and charged towards the fifty thousand White Tiger Legion soldiers in a mighty force, their cries of killing shaking the heavens and their rage soaring to the heavens.
A variety of dazzling spirit abilities were unleashed upon the White Tiger Legion soldiers, while the Fierce Sky Tiger roared in fury.
"Fire!"
"Raze Martial Spirit City to the ground!"
Boom boom boom!
Instantly, artillery fire blazed, countless shells bursting out of their barrels, streaking through the sky and piercing the charging spirit master army.
Thanks to the refinements of Grandmaster Lou Gao and hundreds of senior forgers, the Star Luo Empire's artillery now boasts not only increased power and a longer range, but also a simpler method for loading shells, saving time.
"Die! Serve His Holiness the Pope! Third Soul Skill: Brave Power!"
A soul master with a longsword spirit bravely charged forward, charging the front lines. However, his bravery was futile in the face of the torrential fire. A dark shell struck his chest like a meteor.
In an instant, the soul master's chest caved in, his ribs shattered, and his internal organs were pulverized by the immense force. A mouthful of blood gushed out, spurting upward.
The longsword soul master died instantly, but his death was only the beginning. With a loud bang, the shell that had hit him suddenly exploded, sending countless flaming, sharp shrapnel flying in all directions.
His body was turned into a hornet's nest, and the intense flames from the shrapnel ignited his body, eventually reducing it to ash.
Even these shrapnel were powerful enough to severely injure a soul king.
The death of the Longsword Spirit Master was only the beginning. With the continuous barrage of shells, within a minute, Spirit Hall suffered heavy losses, with over a thousand spirit masters killed instantly.
Even those who managed to survive were severely injured, with either an arm or a leg shattered.
Even more tragically, some male spirit masters lost their third legs. The "surgical" operations were a complete success. Congratulations to them, they will be beautiful women in their future.
Of course, the spirit masters who had joined Spirit City were not all insignificant. After being caught off guard, they united, with defensive spirit masters at the center, and waited for an opportunity to launch a counterattack.
Dozens of defensive spirit masters and spirit masters activated their strongest defensive spirit abilities, forming a barrier that shielded the others from the bombardment and steadily advanced on the White Tiger Legion.
Seeing this, Lie Tianhu made a quick decision, "Swift Wind Legion, move out! Use incendiary bombs! Ground forces, target the enemy defensive Soul Douluos and bombard them continuously!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the roar of artillery fire intensified, a continuous rumble. Every second, hundreds of shells bombarded the defensive barrier formed by the Soul Douluos.
Meanwhile, in the sky, the White Crane Clan leader of the Mind Clan, clad in black, was practically invisible against the pitch-black night sky.
Now, White Crane was a Level 82 Agility Attack Soul Douluo, his spirit having evolved into Lingbo Feiyan, far surpassing the speed of a Spine-tailed Swift.
With a wave of his hand, he shouted, "Swift Wind Legion, move out!"
With that, White Crane soared into the air, heading towards Soul City, followed by thousands of flying spirit masters.
These included not only spirit masters from the Mind Clan, but also spirit masters from other regions. All of these spirit masters possessed either bird or insect spirits—the ability to fly, which was the sole criterion for joining the Swift Wind Legion.
Each flying spirit master had ten incendiary bombs strapped to their waists. They circled at high speed above Spirit City, igniting them simultaneously and hurling them towards the city.
Tens of thousands of "small fireballs" like meteors rained down from the sky, landing on the ground and buildings of Spirit City before exploding violently!
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, a series of intense explosions echoed through Spirit City. With the continued bombardment of incendiary bombs, Spirit City was reduced to rubble, flames roared, and it became a sea of inferno!
"Damn it! I didn't expect the Star Luo Empire's firearms to be so powerful."
Bibi Dong frowned, looking at the deadly spirit master army. She gripped the golden scepter with her jade hand, exerting force, the immense force even leaving her handprint on the scepter.
Although she had long known about the existence of new firearms, she hadn't expected the Star Luo Empire to mass-produce so many artillery pieces and even train a powerful firearms unit, while the Spirit Hall was completely unaware of this. This was what really infuriated Bibi Dong.
"That useless Bishop Wolfe couldn't even figure out such an important thing..."
Before she finished her words, Bibi Dong suddenly looked up and saw someone throwing two incendiary bombs at her!
