The seven Lord of Souls were instantly shocked. This was a short-term, long-distance soul communication that could only be opened by offering a large number of souls as sacrifices.
Every moment of soul consumption requires millions of puppets as sacrifices; such methods are never used except in critical moments.
Once used, it will inevitably Returning Breath World.
Just as they expected, when the vortex of soul communication was complete, a rebuking voice emanated from it.
"What exactly did you do? You've failed twice already. Do you know how short-handed you are? To replenish your manpower, three worlds have already been put on the defensive. And this is the result you give back to your previous promise of victory?"
"My lord, this was truly an accident. If you could just provide us with three more Lord of Souls, we would be able to bring back the soul of that evil Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard to you," the Lord of Souls explained frantically.
But within that swirling vortex of soul communication, there was no sound whatsoever, like a completely silent volcano about to erupt.
Just as the Lord of Souls were despairingly awaiting their punishment, a voice rang out, "I'm giving you one last chance. I'll send all the manpower from the other world to replenish your ranks. If anything goes wrong this time, you'll all come back and await having your souls extracted to receive your punishment."
Upon hearing that their souls would be extracted for punishment, the seven Lord of Souls trembled. "This time we must succeed. If we fail, we won't waste teleportation energy; we'll simply die on the battlefield."
The voice from within the vortex said, "We are gathering our strength to drive the wizards out of these worlds in one fell swoop. The Manluo World is of great importance; it is a crucial springboard for our military campaigns and must be completely under our control to ensure a foolproof counterattack next time."
The Lord of Souls nodded frantically, guaranteeing, "We guarantee success this time. We will kill all life related to wizards and completely seize control of the Manluo World."
"There are three Lord of Souls and over one hundred million puppet troops in total. They will arrive later. Prepare your own battle plans; this is the last reinforcement you can receive."
"Yes, thank you, sir."
The communication vortex disappeared, and all the Lord of Souls breathed a sigh of relief. They had not suffered the punishment they had imagined, and the reinforcements they had requested were granted without hesitation.
This time they have no reason to fail!!
If they fail this time, that makes four failures in total, including the previous three. No one can allow them to fail four times in the same position. Even they themselves would find it unbearable to watch them fail without the most brutal punishment.
Meanwhile, Leo was building Soul Tower, grateful for the tireless efforts of the puppet army that delivered souls time and time again. Although he hadn't collected a single soul from Level-Four Lord of Souls in the later battles, the souls from the ordinary puppet army were of very high quality. After filling the second Soul Tower, he needed to build several more to increase its capacity.
Just as Leo was creating it, a spatial rift suddenly tore open beside him, and his clone Black Soluo jumped in.
"Main body, the Returning Breath World might be planning something big, so be careful."
"How did you find out?" Leo asked in surprise.
"Those below level four in the Returning Breath World cannot access matters outside the world, nor can they contact the Lord of Souls. However, recently, the number of life forms in the Returning Breath World itself has suddenly increased by 300%, and all creatures are accelerating their advancement. I suspect that the Returning Breath World has entered a stage of mass production."
"Furthermore, I discovered traces of a large-scale puppet army gathering in various locations. The sheer number suggests that the Returning Breath World is preparing for a major counterattack."
Leo stopped what he was doing. If the information from his clone Black Soluo was true, then the danger he was in would increase significantly.
The Manluo World is one of the channels through which the Returning Breath World sends out troops. If they want to increase their troop deployment, this place will bear the important responsibility of transportation.
Given the strategic importance of this location, they would not allow any wizards to nail it there.
"The news is important. I understand. You should go back now and be careful to hide yourself," Leo said.
"Rest assured,"
Black Soluo, in his clone form, tore through space and jumped Returning Breath World.
Leo quickly finished building the Soul Tower in his hand, returned to the Manluo World, and carefully reviewed the discoveries of his clone Black Soluo in his memory. The situation was indeed as he said: a massive puppet army had suddenly appeared in the Returning Breath World.
When inquiring about the Lord of Souls of the Manluo World, the Boiling Blood Tyrant Body Stigmata Wizard told him that the Lord of Souls were very quiet, making no moves, and there was no sign of reinforcements.
"Keep observing; they won't give up so easily."
"Don't worry, we won't let any clues slip by," said the Boiling Blood Tyrant Body Stigmata Wizard.
Leo looked towards the direction of the Level Three Great Wizard who were receiving the information. They must know more accurate information, but he couldn't go over and ask them.
Although Black Soluo's clone was in the Returning Breath World, he could tell him all the information he knew in great detail.
Unfortunately, Black Soluo's current clone is too weak to access higher-level intelligence; he can only analyze the changes around him as much as possible.
The Returning Breath World is clearly about to make a big move, and the Manluo World's position is extremely important; there's no time for him to continue playing around.
Before the great war breaks out, the first thing the Returning Breath World will do is to eliminate all the wizards stationed on the Returning Breath World's front lines.
Therefore, they will face a major war earlier than other worlds, and the danger will be extremely high!
"We can't wait any longer. I need to act now to reduce the number of Lord of Souls to below five and the puppet army to within two hundred million," Leo said to Yaoyao.
"You're going to take the initiative?" Yaoyao looked at Leo in shock.
If Leo takes the initiative to make a move, he will expose all his strength, which will be very detrimental to future developments!
By doing this, Leo essentially removed all his deception and pretense, reducing his buffer time!
"It's alright. The Manluo World is a small world with limited capacity, capable of holding no more than twenty level-four combatants. As long as I stay in their base and take action the moment they teleport, I can stabilize the situation in the Manluo World."
"I think you've gone mad. If you do this, you'll definitely attract an even stronger Lord of Souls. If they attack you from across the world, you won't be able to withstand it," Yao Yao said Yaoyao.
"If they can call for reinforcements, why can't I? If they have combat power above level four, I'll call for reinforcements too. There are so many high-level Stigmata Wizard and Supreme Lord; I don't believe they can just sit idly by."
"If that's the case, I'll call the World Tree for reinforcements."
"Unless a force capable of directly destroying the world appears, anyone above level four simply cannot enter. Here, I am the limit of my strength."
Leo didn't continue arguing with Yaoyao. Instead, he called back the Boiling Blood Tyrant Body Stigmata Wizard who had just left. "You arrange the defenses here. Call back all the wizards who are mining resources. I have a feeling a major battle is about to break out."
Where are you going?
The Boiling Blood Tyrant Body Stigmata Wizard showed no reaction to the impending great battle, but responded to Leo's first words. Every time Leo told him to handle the arrangements, he would definitely disappear again.
This has happened many times before.
"I'll go check across the street. Don't worry about my safety."
After Leo finished speaking, he disappeared with a single tap of his foot.
The Boiling Blood Tyrant Body Stigmata Wizard, who felt a sense of déjà vu at this scene, was left speechless.
He had a feeling that Leo wasn't just going to take a look; he wasn't going to make a big fuss.
At the Lord of Souls's stronghold, a passage connecting to the Returning Breath World is opening. After countless puppet armies rush over, three ugly figures of the Lord of Souls slowly emerge from the passage.
The seven Lord of Souls were originally in the Manluo World were incredibly enthusiastic when they saw the three Lord of Souls were coming to their aid. With their help, they were sure to kill that evil Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard.
But just as they were preparing to greet and properly entertain these three Lord of Souls,
From the shadows behind the three Lord of Souls, a colossal figure emerged, its earthen-yellow body causing their entire bodies to tense with tension.
They were always the ones who initiated the attacks; they never imagined that one day they would be ambushed by Stigmata Wizard.
"Saint... Scar..."
They opened their mouths to shout, trying to warn the three newly arrived Stigmata Wizard, but they had only uttered two words when they saw the Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard, whom they considered a thorn in their side, flick his finger. The three newly arrived Lord of Souls, as if subjected to an unimaginable attack, displayed immense pain throughout their bodies.
Their auras instantly dropped by 40%, almost falling from the Level-Four Lord of Souls to the third level.
"Wizard..."
As the Earth Giant puffed out his chest and a terrifying beam of energy shot from his mouth, the voice they wanted to use to warn him had only uttered four words.
finished,
This was the first reaction of all the Lord of Souls when they saw that terrifying pillar of energy spewing from the mouth of the Earth Giant.
They had witnessed this attack twice before; there was absolutely no way to defend against it, and it would instantly vaporize their entire bodies, including their souls.
The attack power was beyond imagination, leading many to believe that it shouldn't be an attack from a level four life form, but rather belonged to the level five category!
The three Lord of Souls who had just entered the Manluo World hadn't even had a chance to say a word when they were struck by the Nuclear Fusion Grand Witchcraft. Without any reaction, they were vaporized and ascended to heaven right before the eyes of the seven Lord of Souls!
"..."
The seven Lord of Souls were stunned. They didn't know how to explain this to their original world. They had made their promises a thousand times over.
result...
The reinforcements they had so painstakingly secured died right before their eyes, the instant they stepped out of the teleportation portal!
