—------------------—
In the battlefield in the western airspace of Lingdou City, the golden tree stands tall and straight, rooted deep in the earth, absorbing the energy transformed from the death of the abyss creatures, transforming it into the life energy of the Douluo plane, and feeding back to the plane.
The rich emerald green light of life is like fog and clouds, covering the area. Many masters of the Douluo plane like to take shelter under the tree, and they can wash away their fatigue in a few minutes.
Emerald Swan Biji and Medical Fairy Douluo Wang Xian'er are the strongest healing beings on the soul beast and human sides respectively. They are stationed here to provide additional healing skills to all soul beasts and soul masters fighting in the long space.
Thanks to the existence of the golden tree and their support, the number of casualties has been kept at a very small number. After nearly a month of fierce fighting, the number of actual casualties is not large.
Whether it was the powerful soul beasts or the soul guide group of the Sun-Moon Empire, most of them adhered to the guerrilla concept of firing and running away, releasing their innate soul skills, or using long-range soul guide firepower to cover the area for a while and then leaving, leaving the main battlefield to the endless army of undead.
Xu Tianxi's pursuit in war has always been to exchange the smallest sacrifice for the greatest victory. The undead army is so brave and fearless, does not need healing soul skills, and there is no need to worry about them dying. It is too useful, better than drones and robot dogs, and it is most appropriate to send them to fill the trenches.
Previously, when attacking the three empires, it was necessary to give all the soldiers military merits and opportunities for advancement. However, there is no need to do that when fighting the abyss creatures. Exchanging one soldier for a hundred abyss creatures is a huge loss, but the undead army doesn't feel sorry.
Only when facing the abyss army, which cannot be transformed into undead, can Xu Tianxi boldly use the undead army. If the undead are released in the war against the human empire, who knows if one of the undead will accidentally go out of control, and then more and more will be killed, causing the undead disaster to reappear in the Douluo plane.
"When I heard that alien creatures were invading our Douluo plane, I was very worried about the situation here. Now it seems that everything is going well."
Xu Jiawei also came, standing under the golden tree and activating the Star Crown Martial Soul. He activated the amplification of the entire field while twirling his beard and laughing softly, looking very calm.
Compared to having his capital destroyed by the Sun-Moon Empire, he was undoubtedly more worried about encountering something more dangerous than the Sun-Moon Empire, such as the dog-eat-dog undead army and the abyss army in front of him.
Neither side seems to cherish life. On one side are the dark undead who are fearless of death, and on the other side are the abyss creatures full of evil and devouring. If you don't know, you might think that they are two groups of evil soul masters who are fighting desperately with their martial spirits.
In this regard, Xu Jiawei commented that it would be best for both sides to increase the intensity of the war and kill everyone.
"Haha, Your Majesty is truly kindhearted. Even at this moment, he can still smile so easily."
At this moment, a voice sounded from not far away, bringing Xu Jiawei back to his senses.
Xu Jiawei turned around and smiled in surprise: "The prince is here too?"
The person who spoke was the former Prince Xueyu of the Tianhun Empire, and the Duke of Anle of the Sun and Moon Empire. After hearing Xu Jiawei's words, his face was bitter, and he shook his head and smiled:
"Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me. Whether it was the former Heaven Dou Empire, or the recent Heaven Soul Empire and Dou Ling Empire, they have all turned into a wisp of smoke and dissipated with the wind."
"The Sun-Moon Empire has recruited a large number of experts to the front lines to prepare for war. Even with my limited skills, they still called me here. Haha, they're being polite. They said we're not fighting for the Sun-Moon Empire, but for the future of the entire continent."
Prince Xueyu was a middle-aged man with a noble temperament half a year ago, but now he seems to have aged more than ten years, with white hair on his temples and eyes that reveal the vicissitudes of life.
Vina and Muxue were still following behind him. The two girls' pretty faces were dull and their expressions were gloomy and powerless. It was really difficult for them to get over the pain of losing their country.
Hearing this, Xu Jiawei also sighed and nodded, "Yes, there is no immortal empire in this world. To be honest, before leaving, I summoned Dai Hao to discuss abdication with him, but he refused to agree, saying that if I brought it up again, he would have to die to atone for his sin."
"This fellow is truly disloyal. He clearly wants me to become the ruler of a fallen nation. Sigh... We've been brothers for so many years, yet he refuses the throne even though it's offered to me for nothing."
Xu Jiawei's face was filled with resentment, but then a wicked smile appeared on his face. He changed the subject and said:
"But it's okay. I'll tie up his last son when I get back. If he dares not to be the emperor, I'll put the yellow robe on his son and let him shout "Long live the emperor" with me. Let's see if he takes the throne or not. The retired emperor is still an emperor."
Upon hearing this, Prince Xueyu's mouth twitched. He was speechless for a moment, then managed to squeeze out a few words from between his teeth: "Your Majesty is truly... very free and easy."
"As I should. When Shrek was defeated in the battle of Xingluo City, I was heartbroken. It's hard to go against the trend."
Xu Jiawei sighed, his expression becoming dejected. He said in a deep voice, "You can't understand the despair of a battle like that unless you see it with your own eyes. Dozens of masters from the renowned Shrek Academy were completely slaughtered by that Sun Moon Empire's Palace Master."
"Xian Lin'er, Qian Duoduo, Shi Yang, and Lin Huiqun, four Super Douluo and above, plus a bunch of Title Douluo and Soul Douluo, were as powerless as babies in that man's hands. He killed them like slaughtering chickens, and even captured a group of them alive."
"There's also the current Lord of Heaven, Xu Tianxi, the Sun-Moon Empire's most recently touted genius who appears once in a thousand years. In his first battle, he defeated Ma Xiaotao, the second-highest talent in Shrek's inner courtyard, who was five or six years his senior."
"Even though our country's Shattered Star Douluo, the Holy Spirit Sect's chief and vice-chief, and Shrek's masters tried to stop him, they were unable to stop his determination to kill...
He blasted Star Shattering Douluo into the sky with a cannon, and the Vice-President of the Holy Spirit Sect was injured by his blast. The two masters of Shrek suffered the most. One was a Titled Douluo, and the other was a Soul Douluo. They were killed by him at the same time. I saw it with my own eyes. Otherwise, how could I have been so desperate? "
"And the facts have proved that my vision is not wrong..."
After the words fell, Prince Xueyu was speechless, and Vina, Muxue was also speechless. Not only were they speechless, but their expressions also looked very unhappy.
What Xu Jiawei said was all right. Their confidence collapsed when they saw the defeat of the Body Sect with their own eyes, but the problem was... Xu Tianxi was not originally from the Sun and Moon Empire!
Ever since the Xuanming Sect openly switched sides, the Sun Moon Empire's propaganda apparatus had been fully operational, publishing in newspapers a detailed account of Xu Tianxi's legendary experience, which was, in short, a story of revenge for his mother. A movie was even made about it, directed by Xu Xiaoyun, and shown in cinemas across the continent.
Afterwards, the people of the Sun and Moon Empire cheered, while the vast majority of people in the original three kingdoms felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten a dead rat.
Prince Xueyu and Vina Muxue, members of the Tianhun Imperial Family, were undoubtedly the ones who least wanted to see this outcome. They felt heartbroken. That was the genius of their Tianhun Empire! How could he have been taken away by Shrek or gone to the Sun-Moon Empire?
If possible, they would have sent a Super Douluo to the Xingdou Great Forest for secret protection that year. Even if they were killed by Xuanzi, it would be worth it. Even Du Bushi was very willing to take action personally and kill the beast Xuanzi in advance.
Seeing the three people so sad, Xu Jiawei said to himself, "I feel much better after venting my sorrows," and was about to say some words of comfort.
At this moment, Biji and Wang Xian'er on the golden tree suddenly changed color and shouted, "Something has happened to the golden tree, leave quickly!"
"Xuanwu summons."
A few miles away, Xu Xiaoyun heard the call, and with his left hand, he summoned the Black Tortoise, and moved all six people over through the air; with his right hand, he summoned the Black Tortoise, and brought Ye Guyi, the disciple of his apprentice.
"What's going on?" Xu Jiawei asked Wang Xianer.
Wang Xianer shook her head with an unpleasant look on her face.
The rich life force of the golden tree suddenly weakened, and a cluster of holy fire seemed to rise from its roots, burning fiercely.
Then, a cluster of holy light burst out from the crown of the tree. It was the light of the former sea god. It trapped the golden tree inward, causing the vitality of the golden tree to weaken rapidly, and large parts of the branches were burned and broken.
Suddenly, the Seraph Sword in Ye Guyi's hand reacted violently.
"This is the Sun Fire extracted from the Holy Sword of Angels, and the Sea God's Light of Sea God Tang San!" Ye Guyi exclaimed in surprise.
"That's good to know. Let's solve the problem right away."
A clear voice came from behind the eight people, and the space distorted. Xu Tianxi took a step forward to stand in front of everyone, raised his right palm slightly, and said softly, "Disperse."
Suddenly, the sacred and vast light of the sea god collapsed violently and dissipated like smoke in the blink of an eye, as if it had never appeared.
The sun fire buried deep in the roots of the golden tree disappeared very quickly, perhaps because it was suppressed by the rootless divine water.
The rhizome broke, and one by one, the scorching divine flame seeds flew out and fell into Xu Tianxi's hands, who then handed them to Ye Guyi.
"This is something Tang San took out from the Angel's Holy Sword. It has long been integrated with the Golden Tree. In the past, I couldn't break it open, so I just waited for it to do it on its own."
Xu Tianxi explained, and then looked into the distance. In front of the abyss passage, two mature figures with deep demonic light stood side by side, one was Ah Yin, and the other was the Devil Monarch.
Almost in the next moment, a black gas that could not be detected without a powerful divine sense flew out from the abyss passage and sank into one of the figures, immediately causing the woman to struggle violently.
"Why is it me? How could it be me! Saint Lord of the Abyss, what are you doing! Stop! Stop..."
Ah Yin screamed with her snow-white neck raised, her dark blue hair dancing wildly, her seductive face twisted into a ball, and her screams were deafening.
"Hahahahaha, do you think I would be easily taken advantage of? You've caused me to lose so many servants who I didn't care about. I'll borrow your body for a while and return it to you after I'm done. Hahahahaha..."
The voice of the Saint Lord of the Abyss rang in Ah Yin's ears, and gradually, it engulfed Ah Yin's consciousness, and his pupils turned into two bottomless black holes.
"Zheng~!"
"A Yin" raised his slender fingers, and a magical weapon that made the space tremble appeared with the sound of the air exploding.
It was a painted Fang Tian Ji, blue-purple all over, with strange textures. Each texture contained a very strange luster, and the scales were fine and dense, like the scales of a halberd.
Super artifact, the Heavenly Saint Rifting Halberd!
