Hidden Reserves
To maintain secrecy, Mighty Lion Douluo only brought a few high-level Soul Douluo with him. Even with the addition of the Soul Master teams from the Zhao and Qian Families, their numbers were still far fewer than those of the Star Crown Sect.
Their attacks were steadily blocked by the Star's Protection Grand Array, which was jointly cast by numerous Soul Saints and even Soul Douluo- level Star Crown Soul Master, without causing the slightest ripple.
But only Xu Fangming, who was temporarily in charge of the Star Crown Sect, knew that although the Star's Protection Grand Array was powerful, it consumed the Soul Power of the Star Crown Soul Master.
Rather than waiting for their Soul Power to run out, they might as well go all out, especially since their strength was no weaker than their opponent's.
"Xiaoya, go to the training ground in the Back Mountain right now and awaken the two slumbering Old Ancestor there."
"Two Old Ancestor?"
"Yes, all you need to do is go to the Back Mountain and shout that the Star Crown Sect is in crisis and ask the two Old Ancestor to take action. Go quickly."
"Good."
Xu Ya had never heard of this before, but she knew that the situation was urgent and her husband would never joke about it.
As a speed-type Soul Master, she was also the fastest one present. In no time, she flew to the sky above the Back Mountain and shouted out Xu Fangming's original words.
This commotion naturally did not escape the notice of the high-level Soul Master present. Apart from the Star Crown Soul Master who had some guesses, everyone else was completely confused.
The Soul Master belonging to the Star Crown Sect were overjoyed, cheering that the sect still had two Titled Douluo Old Ancestor hidden away.
A dark cloud hung over the Spirit Hall Empire's forces, especially the Zhao and Qian Families, who were forced to contribute most of their family strength.
Mighty Lion Douluo watched Xu Ya leave, a shadow seemed to fall over his heart. The departure of a titled figure at this time was not a good sign.
Remembering what the Grand Elder had said before—that the Star Crown Sect, a great sect with a history of thousands of years, must have a backup plan—he decided to immediately speed up the attack.
We must rescue Azure Luan Douluo and Light Feather Douluo no matter what, and also destroy the remaining forces of the Star Crown Sect to greatly reduce their strength.
"Speed up, let's break this Starlight Curtain together."
"Yes."
The Qianjun and Jiangmo exchanged a glance, their two Coiling Dragon Staff joined together, and two powerful Soul Power surged and merged continuously. A dazzling Golden Sacred Dragon flew out from the void and crashed into the Star's Protection Grand Array.
After a violent earthquake, many Soul Saint within the formation, having exhausted their Soul Power and coughing up blood, were carried away by the disciples guarding the back.
The Super Douluo Martial Soul Fusion Skill is terrifying. It's not so bad when fighting against opponents of the same or higher levels, but when fighting against Soul Master weaker than oneself, it's simply overwhelmingly powerful.
The fall of numerous Star Crown Soul Master made the Star's Protection Grand Array slightly more transparent, and Mighty Lion Douluo no longer held back, unleashing his most powerful attack with all his might.
"Ninth Soul Skill, Lion King's Roar."
Crimson energy was gathered by the phantom of the Blazing Fire Lion, and magma-like energy flowed across its body, constantly gathering in its mouth.
In an instant, a dazzling crimson beam of light erupted forth, crashing irresistibly into the Star's Protection Grand Array and triggering a violent explosion.
The Soul Master under the titles of the Spirit Hall Empire were all blown away by this energy, not to mention the Star Crown Soul Master who faced this attack directly.
Star Crown Soul Master at the Soul Saint level collapsed, coughing up blood. Their faces were as pale as paper as they were taken away for treatment. Even nearly ten Star Crown Soul Masters at the Soul Douluo level fell down.
Elder Xu Chunhao, the Third Elder the main force, also suffered considerable losses. Most importantly, his connection with the star power of other Star Crown Soul Master was severed under this powerful offensive.
With a cracking sound, the Star's Protection Grand Array began to crack and shattered completely in an instant, revealing Starfall Mountain in its entirety to the Spirit Hall Empire.
"Kill!!!"
Mighty Lion Douluo's eyes gleamed with golden light. The great formation had been broken, and the Star Crown Sect was now lambs to the slaughter. Those two, Azure Luan and Guang Ling, should thank me properly this time.
The powerful figures and Soul Master of the Spirit Hall Empire followed closely behind. Their invasion of the Star Crown Sect was destined to attract the attention of the Star God Douluo, so when would they have a chance to make a quick buck?
But the moment they stepped into the Star Crown Sect's Mountain Gate, an accident occurred.
Countless roots emerged from the ground, launching a fierce attack on the Soul Master of the Spirit Hall Empire. The Zhao and Qian Families, who were slightly weaker and following behind, were directly pierced through.
The heads of the Zhao and Qian Families tried to intervene, but two even thicker roots attacked them with such force and speed that they were forced back, forced to watch as their people were slaughtered.
"A plant-type Titled Douluo? No, even Titled Douluo couldn't possibly control so many roots at the same time; the consumption of Soul Power would definitely not be able to keep up."
The Mighty Lion Douluo, standing high in the sky, shattered the roots that attacked him with a single punch, and warily watched the commotion below.
Suddenly, he saw a vine wrapped in Starlight rushing towards him from afar at an extremely fast speed. While it completely negated his attack, the Starlight it scattered actually helped the Star Crown Soul Master slowly recover their Soul Power.
"Human brat, how dare you invade the Star Crown Sect? Don't you know this is the territory of the inheritors of the Deity?"
Vine Elder's words finally confirmed Mighty Lion Douluo's suspicions: the Star Crown Sect actually had two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast protecting them.
No, their age is definitely more than 100,000 years, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to break through my attack so easily.
While entangled with the Star Seeking Vine, Mighty Lion Douluo diverted some of his attention to the battlefield below and was surprised to find that Thousand Jun Douluo and Subduing Demon Douluo were completely held back by the roots emerging from the ground.
The Starry Tree, which has been cultivating Starfall Mountain for thousands of years, appears to have done nothing, but in reality, it has long since transformed the entire interior of the mountain into its domain, with countless roots lying dormant beneath it. Even the Star Seeking Vine, which accompanies it day and night, is not quite sure of the exact number.
Under the pressure of countless roots, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo were forced to separate. Without their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they could no longer pose a significant threat to the Starry Tree.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield among the Soul Master, Xu Fangming and Dugu Bo joined forces to hold off Chen Yan. Compared to the Spirit Hall Empire, they despised this opportunist who had once aligned himself with the Star Crown Sect even more.
If they recover this time, we will definitely take action to exterminate the Chen Family, leaving them with no place to survive in the Star Luo Empire.
The Spirit Hall Empire has a slight advantage in the number of Titled Douluo, but this is Starfall Mountain, the territory of the Star Crown Sect, whose number of Soul Douluo is far greater than that of the Spirit Hall Empire.
Seeing the battle becoming increasingly intense, the Mighty Lion Douluo, who was dealing with the Star Seeking Vine, changed his expression several times. Finally, he made up his mind and used his Ninth Soul Skill to repel the Star Seeking Vine once again.
Then he took out a signal flare from his Storage Soul Tool, and instantly ignited it with his Soul Power, causing it to bloom into a dazzling flame in the daytime.
