"Boom!"
By the time Dai Wei arrived with his men, a spirit tool squad of about four hundred was fiercely bombarding a Star Luo army of a thousand.
"Bastards!"
Dai Wei's pupils contracted, and his face instantly turned ugly as he understood the situation.
"Follow me and kill these Sun Moon barbarians!" Dai Wei's voice, amplified by spirit power, reached everyone.
Those who followed him were all Spirit Masters, reacting extremely quickly, instantly activating their Spirits and charging towards the Sun Moon Empire's spirit tool regiment below.
"Hahahaha!" Before the Sun Moon Empire's spirit tool squad could even send out a distress signal, a burst of laughter came from afar.
"What kind of skill is it to bully the few with the many? If you've got guts, come play with your grandpa!"
"Boom boom boom..."
The Star Luo forces looked up towards the direction of the laughter, only to see over a thousand Soul Engineers flying rapidly towards them in their flying spirit tools.
What made it even more despairing was that in front of them, countless streaks of light were flying towards them at an even faster speed.
They were no strangers to this; it was the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Guidance Cannon.
From a distant hilltop, the remaining two thousand-plus Soul Engineers of the First and Second spirit tool Regiments had set up spirit tool positions, and menacing cannon barrels let out angry roars.
A distance of several kilometers was but a few breaths for a Soul Guidance Cannon.
"Dodge quickly!"
"Boom!!!"
Hundreds of Soul Guidance Cannon shells, mixed with countless spirit tool rays, exploded among the Star Luo forces.
The earth shook and mountains swayed; distant peaks hundreds of meters high trembled violently, rocks collapsed, and countless holes of varying sizes appeared on the ground, blown through by the shells.
Even at the center of the explosion, the powerful energy pulverized the rocks there.
To counter the Moonflow Empire, the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Guidance Cannon development in recent years had focused on high-explosive and destructive power.
After one volley, at least a third of the thousand-plus Spirit Masters dispatched by the Star Luo Empire died instantly, without even a chance to scream.
Even some attack-type Spirit Kings were obliterated, not to mention agility-type Soul Masters; only defense-type Spirit Masters could survive such terrifying explosions.
"Damn it!!!" Dai Wei watched as a third of his Spirit Master army was instantly lost, his eyes bloodshot. This was the backbone of the Star Luo Empire; over three hundred men were directly sacrificed. Even if they repelled the Sun Moon Empire afterwards, he would not escape punishment.
"White Tiger True Body!"
At this moment, Dai Wei was filled with a frenzied aura. Among his eight spirit rings, the seventh black spirit ring instantly lit up, and a giant white tiger, ten meters long, appeared on the battlefield.
"Hahahaha, it's someone from the Dai family, this is a big fish!"
Seeing Dai Wei transform into his White Tiger True Body, the eyes of the two spirit tool Regiment commanders instantly brightened, and the two tacitly moved to encircle Dai Wei.
Both were Spirit Saints, and naturally not Dai Wei's match in a one-on-one fight, but with the enhancement of spirit tools, they were evenly matched with Dai Wei for a time.
The spirit tool regiment below, however, presented a phenomenon of dimensional reduction attack. The Sun Moon Empire already had a numerical advantage, and furthermore, they displayed extremely high military professionalism.
Their coordinated defense and coordinated attack worked very well. Once spirit tools appeared in an organized formation, the destructive power they could cause was unimaginable.
Various cannon shells whistled through the sky, and spirit tool rays also struck the ground. The Sun Moon Empire's spirit tool regiment had no concept of conservation.
They unleashed their full firepower, aiming for complete saturation bombardment.
Not long after the battle began, the Sun Moon Empire gained an advantage and continued to expand it.
The Star Luo Empire's Spirit Master troops, consisting of Soul Sects and above, were routed, suffered heavy casualties, and began to show signs of fleeing.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." Hundreds of reconnaissance spirit tools flew over the Ming Dou Mountain Range, scattering everywhere, covering the sky. The reconnaissance spirit tools were over five hundred meters above the ground, generally difficult to reach and destroy.
This was like a special net, rapidly unfurled, covering the entire battlefield.
Through the reconnaissance spirit tools, Xu Chen saw the situation below clearly, the distribution of the Star Luo army completely within his grasp.
"The Third spirit tool Regiment will depart from here to cut off Dai Wei's retreat. Let's give the Star Luo Empire a surprise first. Tell the three spirit tool Regiment commanders, if they can capture him alive, then do so. If not, death is also acceptable!" Xu Chen said to the orderly beside him, pointing to a marked marching route on the map that would directly cut off Dai Wei's retreat.
"Yes, sir!"
At Xu Chen's command, the Third spirit tool Regiment quickly mobilized, deploying all flying spirit tools. Three hundred men swiftly maneuvered to the far rear of the fleeing Star Luo Empire forces.
While the Sun Moon Empire's battle was in full swing and Xu Chen was directing operations, the Star Luo Empire's vice-commander, temporarily in charge of the entire army, was still awaiting news of Dai Wei's triumphant return.
Firstly, in his opinion, with Dai Wei, a Spirit Douluo, directly intervening, there was no possibility of failure.
Secondly, thanks to reconnaissance spirit tools, the Sun Moon military could see the battlefield at a glance in real-time, while Star Luo could not. They still relied on scouts to gather information.
As a result, they were behind the Sun Moon side in terms of information.
So much so that even with Grand Marshal Dai Wei deeply encircled, the Star Luo side remained completely unaware.
"Roar!"
A tiger's roar, and a figure crashed embarrassingly into a mountain range.
"Damn, that's intense!"
"Ptooey!" The First spirit tool Regiment Commander spat out a mouthful of blood, looking disheveled at the two figures fighting in the sky.
"The White Tiger Spirit, a top-tier beast Spirit. These guys on the Douluo Continent may not have good spirit tools, but their Spirits are truly powerful!" During this time, they had already learned that the Douluo Continent's Spirits were generally superior to those of the Sun Moon Empire.
Apart from the Sun Spirit and the Purple Emperor Sky Destroying Dragon Spirit inherited by the imperial family, the Sun Moon Empire had very few inherited top-tier Spirits.
However, 'you have your advantages, and I have mine.' The First spirit tool Regiment Commander's eyes instantly gleamed with fervor. With a fierce glint, a flash of light from his storage spirit tool, and a massive fixed-position Soul Guidance Cannon was set up on the ground.
At the same time, the base of the cannon barrel transformed, instantly becoming a disc-shaped base. Under the sunlight, the thick and menacing cannon barrel flashed with a golden light.
At this moment, sealed milk bottles were installed onto the base of the fixed-position Soul Guidance Cannon.
In an instant, terrifying spirit power fluctuations gathered at the muzzle.
This was a Level 7 fixed-position Soul Guidance Cannon, personally operated by him, with power sufficient to threaten a Spirit Douluo.
"Dai Wei, taste my big boy!" After a furious roar, a scorching white light shot out, heading straight for the giant white tiger on the battlefield.
