Chapter 315 - March Through Tenrou

All of the Dou Spirit Empire soldiers looked at the looming Er Ming who was glaring down at them.

They could feel the terrifying pressure that was emitting from his glare that made all of them shiver in fright.

While this was happening, Er Ming moved his gaze over the shore where he saw ten large battlesh_i_p_s with one mothership.

He narrowed his eyes when he saw all of the cannons charging up with some of the hatches on the ship opening up.

Missiles began to rise up as they began aligning with Er Ming before the shout of fire rang out, causing them to launch.

"So destroy it is..."Mutter Er Ming as he clenches his fist as the missiles and the cannon barrages rushed towards him.

"Scram."

With a thrust of his fist that began growing as it shined with a purple light. A titanic fist smashed directly into the missiles and barrages, like the descent of a meteor before surging forward to the sh_i_p_s.

Yet the soldier's expression didn't change, their face was still serene as they watched the descending fist.

'What is wrong with them.' Thought Er Ming before his eyes widen when he saw a gigantic root burst out of the ground.

Countless gigantic roots that were coiling and interweaving with each other rose up before they intercepted Er Mings attack.

Sending a small gust of wind and shockwave ringing through the shores that shook some of the sh_i_p_s.

It was a man with a green-gold robe and a demonic tree mask that obscure his face. In his hand was a long root staff that gave off a dark-green gold glow.

Yet the most distinct feature from this man was the terrifying presence that he was giving off that caused even Er Ming to narrow his eyes.

'Qusai-God Limit Douluo!'

"Holy Spirit Cult?" Questioned Er Ming as he felt and sensed the foul nature that was being emitted from the figure.

"Impressive. Did you just figure that out or knew beforehand?"

Er Ming didn't say anything as he tried to sense if there was any more beings like the masked man in front of him around.

"Don't worry, I am the only one." Said the Demonic Tree Mask Man.

"Why are you here? Don't tell me you guys are mad over the action of a boy."

"An action that disrupted a few of our plans and the potential to become a dangerous nuisance. In the end, we have come to wipe out this place off the map."

"You think it will be that easy?"

"You don't need to worry about that... But first, let's bring all the trouble ones here."

The masked man lifted his staff up before tapping it on the air below him causing a dark-green gold to expand outwards.

Just as he did this, Er Ming already thrust out his fist that was shining brilliantly while bending space as it moves forward.

"Impatient."

The Masked Man struck out his with his staff that shined with an ethereal light as green-gold roots began to appear around it.

As the fist and staff clashed with each other, the masked man was sent skidding back a bit but there was no sign of damage on him.

"Tsk."

"They should be here... Now."

Just as the masked man said, lights began to flash around Er Ming and him before people began to appear.

"What?"

"Huh? Why am I here, I was with Lang Yue and Tang Ziran." Mutter Tong Yu as he glances around.

He found he wasn't alone, as he saw the Soul-Beast that Lang Yue liked to visit and talked about, Bi Ji.

Alongside her was Di Tian, the leader of the Soul-Beast who recently arrived here a few days ago.

As well as Er Ming who staring at them in surprise before his expression turns serious.

"All the potential threats are here, now let us take a trip." Said the masked man as he twirled his staff before stepping the ground.

This caused a flash of green-gold light to wrapped around all of them before they vanished from the shores.

As their figures left, the generals on the battlesh_i_p_s nodded their heads before shouting an order.

"All Cannons Aim! Fire!"

"Were being attacked?"

"By who exactly?"

"How many are there? And is just from the Shore?"

"Yes, we are being attacked and it might be from the Holy Spirit Cult. As for how many, I can see some battlesh_i_p_s and a mothership." Said Mu Ye over the soul communicator as he stood on the top of the Pagoda, watching the movement of the sh_i_p_s.

"There actually utilizing battlesh_i_p_s and a mothership to take us out? Color me impressed, so they see us as that much of a threat."

"Not the time, Nui!"

"Have they already sent forces onto the land?" Questioned Wang Tong through the communicator.

"They have but Er Ming intercepted them."

"Alright, we need to make a team of four that can provide support to him, while the others bring the Civilians into the Academy. And the others help guard the city with the help of the Soul Cannons and things our principle left behind." Siad Wang Tong.

"Change of plans, it won't be you guys supporting. As it seems the overseers of this operation took him, Tong Yu and Bi Ji away." Said Mu Ye as his eyes narrowed after seeing the flash of green-gold.

"... So they took away out powerhouses?"

"Pretty much. Not only that but it seems there unleashing most if not all of there firepower on us. Lucky enough the barrier that was made by the Lacrimas is holding up." Said Mu Ye with a frown.

When he and Tang Wulin were drawing up the plan for Tenrou City and the Academy.

They made sure to implement a defensive system that would help against any sneak or surprise attack.

Mu Ye suggested that they use the same soul defense as the top organization has been using.

Tang Wulin agreed with this but he also suggested to add in there own, which was the Lacrimas.

From what Mu Ye saw, Tang Wulin made a formation with the Lacrima. In his own words, he said that the Lacrima would be forming a barrier around the whole city and academy.

Which would be able to withstand the blows of a Limit Douluo on its own but combine that with the Soul Defense.

They were able to create a barrier that would require a huge amount of time by even Limit Douluo to breakthrough.

'But that doesn't mean it can last a long time against these battlesh_i_p_s and mothersh_i_p_s.'

"So there blockading the port as we speak, do you think they will additional forces here?"

"No... From what I can see, it seems they're trying to destroy the Tenrou City and Academy. They're not trying to hold anything back as if there trying to wipe us off the map with all they got." Mutter Wang Tong

"Is this because of the devil that is our principal?" Questioned Nui with a chuckle.

"Maybe, anyway let's start. Defending our home is priority number one!" Shouted Mu Ye with everyone agreeing.

"This way, hurry and go to the Academy! But no pushing or shoving!" Yue Long shouted towards the citizens and soul beast who were younglings.

He saw them rushing past him with some of them pushing over people and soul beast to his irritation.

As that was making the evacuation even harder with Yue Long having to sometime restrain them, so no one got trampled over.

It wasn't just him but all of the students and some of the staff were helping with the evacuation from all over the city.

While the rest was helping with the defense of the city, utilizing the already installed soul ammunitions to fight back.

'They said the Holy Spirit Cult is attacking.' Thought Yue Long with a frown, hoping he could hurry up with this.

And go help out the staff members, as he believed his light and holy element should give them an advantage.

While he was only a Soul King, he still believed he could still be a help, especially with his one-word battle armor.

Glancing to the side, he saw there were some stragglers that were trying to bring their stuff.

"Just leave it! Is that stuff more important than your life!" Shouted Yue Long as he dashed over and grabbed them.

"If you guys don't start moving, then I will start beating!" Shouted Yue Long causing their expressions to change before they ran away.

"So going to be chewed out for that."Muttered Yue Long before sighing.

It was then he felt the city shake, causing him to glance up to see even more smoke appearing around the city.

"There really wasting no time-"

Yue Long eyes widened when he saw the barrier that was around the city was fading away.

"What! Why is it turning off! Don't tell me there are doing something to disturb it?"

Yue Long didn't waste any time as he dashed forward, hearing the sounds of marching.

Before he saw the people and soul beast was screaming as a series of explosions was happening around them.

"No!"

Light erupted from Yue Long body as four wings burst forth from his back before hacked out with his light sword.

Just as a pair of missiles was descending down on the people of Tenrou City. The crescent light attack made contact with the missiles causing it to explode from contact.

"Keep moving! I will protect you guys from anymore attack!" Yue Long shouted causing the people to glance at him in fright.

It took a bit before they all began moving, with some running, another pushing, and rest moving fast.

As they were doing this, Yue Long turn around to see thousands of Dou Spirit Empire soldiers and Holy Spirit Cult members.

They were all marching inside of the city with some of them taking out soul fixed ammunitions gun and cannons.

The Soldiers took aim before unleashing volleys of barrages on the buildings and road in the city.

Chunks of buildings were falling, some were exploding and others were being destroyed with a fire starting.

While this was going on, barrages from the battlesh_i_p_s and mother ship could be seen as a different part of the city was being destroyed.

Yue Long clenched his fist as he glared at all of them, feeling a sense of hatred for what they were doing to his second home.

Gripping his light sword as his wings glowed even brighter, he dashed forward with his blood core spinning rapidly.

A golden-white aura began to shimmer around his body, invisible to the n_a_k_e_d eye as cracks formed every time he took a step.

Yue Long swept forward with his light sword, unleashing a surging beam of light that bisected the soldiers that were attacking.

The Soldiers didn't see the attack coming, too busy destroying the are around them. But the only thing they could do his let out a scream as they fell down to the ground.

Yue Long wasn't done as he rushed forward, thrust out a hand, creaming a golden palm that descended down on them.

The palm surpassed the size of a building before crashing into the soldiers and turning them into a bloody paste.

"I will never forgive you all for trying to destroy our home." Said Yue Long as he made another light sword.

Dashing forward through the ranks of soldiers, while maneuvering through the soul cannons and gun that was being fired at him.

Hack, slash, sweep, stabbed, chopped and thrust was the movements of Yue Long as he slaughters through the ranks.

As he killed the fifth solider, he felt and sense a faint sense of killing intent causing him to step back.

Just as a beam of darkness pierce through where he was just standing but as he came to a stop.

A flash of light appeared above him with a dark-emerald ax hacking down on him causing him to widen his eyes.

Knowing he couldn't dodge the attack, he got ready to explode his blood essence outwards.

But a streak of purple cut through the area before clashing with the dark-emerald ax and pushing it back.

"Tsk." Muttered the Holy Spirit Cult as he jumps back, while he feeling his arm tremble.

"Were being attacked from all sides and you actually dropped your guard? Are you trying to die?" Questioned Xie Xiao as he walked towards Yue Long with his Soul Breaking Spear.

"Sorry, lost myself for a second."

"I figured, still we gotta hurry up and take care of these guys and go help the others around the city. They're already breaking into the city from all over." Said Xie Xiao.

"Right." Said Yue Long with a grim look.
