Tang San and his group were extremely fast. In just a few days, based on the information gathered by Bai He and the others, they quickly eliminated all the personnel the Spirit Empire had arranged for the attack.
The Spirit Empire had dispatched a total of ten teams for the attack, with ten experts in each team, led by a Soul Douluo level expert.
But these experts couldn't even last a single round under Tang San. The black Blue Silver Grass covered the sky and possessed terrifying devouring ability. Even Soul Douluo experts had no power to resist. Not only were they killed, but even their corpses were devoured completely.
Outside Jialing Pass, after countless sandbox simulations, Emperor Xue Ye and Marshal Ge Long finally decided that a direct assault was the only option. Otherwise, if the two sides continued to stalemate like this, the situation might become even worse.
Heaven's Gate Pass had already seen countless bloody battles. The Star Luo Empire had launched numerous strong attacks, completely tying down the defenders and Soul Master legions at Heaven's Gate Pass. If the Heaven Dou Empire couldn't assist in the attack, something could change at any time. After all, Soul Masters were extremely mobile. If the Spirit Empire's Soul Master legion turned their focus to support Heaven's Gate Pass, the battlefield could collapse at any moment.
In terms of military strength, the Star Luo Empire far surpassed the Heaven Dou Empire. Although the number of Soul Masters tied down at Heaven's Gate Pass was relatively small, seventy percent of the Spirit Empire's army was also at Heaven's Gate Pass.
Marshal Ge Long was indeed a military leader, seasoned in countless battles, and adept at troop deployment, fully aware of the strengths and weaknesses of both sides.
Marshal Ge Long meticulously arranged the Heaven Dou Empire's million-strong army and finally launched the largest war in the Soul Master world in nearly a thousand years.
All the Heaven Dou Empire's troops were well-trained, divided into countless relatively smaller legions, with a degree of coordination between them, and began their assault.
Although the Heaven Dou Empire's Soul Masters were relatively weaker, their army's strength was indeed considerably greater than the Spirit Empire's. The heavy cavalry legion, heavy armor legion, archer legion, ballista legion, and trebuchet legion cooperated with each other, forming an overwhelming force that charged directly towards Jialing Pass.
The entire Jialing Pass instantly became like a sea of fire. Arrows rained down from the sky, and countless fiery red stones were hurled towards the enemy lines by the trebuchets.
Bibi Dong and Golden Alligator Douluo reacted very quickly. They didn't choose to defend based on the city walls but instead opted for a head-on confrontation, sending the Soul Master legion out of Jialing Pass.
The Elephant Armor Legion at the forefront was like an impenetrable wall. Even giant stones hitting them couldn't advance an inch, and no matter how many arrows rained down, they couldn't break through their defense.
Furthermore, the Spirit Empire had a very strong variety of Soul Masters, with various different Soul Master legions.
Under the leadership of the Fire Leopard Sect Master, countless fire-attribute Soul Masters were like sharp knives, forcefully piercing into the Heaven Dou Empire's army.
The Wind Sword Sect Master also led countless Soul Masters with the Wind Sword Martial Soul, flying with their swords in the sky, almost controlling the entire battlefield.
The ferocity of this war surpassed everyone's imagination. The Spirit Empire's Soul Master legion suffered some losses, but the Heaven Dou Empire's army suffered even greater casualties when they clashed with the Spirit Empire's Soul Master legion.
Seeing the situation enter a stalemate, the Heaven Dou Empire's Titled Douluo experts also entered the battlefield one after another. Their strength was extremely formidable and could effectively bridge the gap in Soul Masters between the two sides.
Tang San was extremely fast, especially since Tang San and Bibi Dong had a deep-seated hatred. Tang San quickly summoned countless Blue Silver Grass, forcefully attacking Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong was equally unwilling to show weakness. The giant Death Spider Emperor swung its large pincers, and the dark Blue Silver Grass was instantly cut into pieces.
Although the dark Blue Silver Grass possessed ultimate devouring ability and even very strong toxins, the Death Spider Emperor also possessed potent poison and dark attributes. The two sides were completely evenly matched, and in terms of Soul Power, Bibi Dong could even suppress Tang San.
Tang San gritted his teeth and directly summoned the dark Clear Sky Hammer, attacking Bibi Dong with all his might.
But Bibi Dong's strength also exceeded Tang San's imagination. In that instant, she transformed into the giant Soul Devouring Spider Emperor, meeting Tang San's attack with her pincers.
Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer now had seven spirit rings, with the configuration being six black and one red. Bibi Dong's Soul Devouring Spider Emperor also had seven spirit rings, with the configuration being five black and two red. In terms of spirit ring configuration, it was even stronger than Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer.
If anyone observed carefully, the Soul Power of Tang San and Bibi Dong seemed very similar, both possessing very strong evil attributes that ordinary people simply couldn't approach.
While Tang San was battling Bibi Dong, other Titled Douluo also began to engage in combat.
Golden Alligator Douluo and Sword Douluo had already started fighting. Both were at level ninety-eight Soul Power, but Golden Alligator Douluo had an extra hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, so the two fought to a standstill.
The Seven Kill Sword had extremely strong attack power, and Sword Douluo was recognized as the number one attack Douluo in the world.
But Golden Alligator Douluo appeared extremely overbearing. The Golden Alligator King Martial Soul not only possessed ultimate strength but also extremely formidable defense, making it difficult to determine a winner between them.
Furthermore, Golden Alligator Douluo was a veteran Titled Douluo, having reached level ninety-eight many years ago, while Sword Douluo had only just broken through. In terms of the depth of their Soul Power, he was still weaker than Golden Alligator Douluo.
Moreover, the Golden Alligator King Martial Soul was extremely formidable, being a top-tier beast Martial Soul, even comparable to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, and was one of the strongest beast Martial Souls in the world.
Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, the two brothers, faced off against the Spirit Empire's Third Enshrined, Qing Luan Douluo, and Fourth Enshrined, Mighty Lion Douluo. Tang Xiao was at level ninety-seven, while Tang Hao was only at level ninety-five. Although the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul was formidable, Qing Luan Douluo and Mighty Lion Douluo were both at level ninety-seven, and their Martial Souls were also not weak.
The Blazing Mighty Lion and Qing Luan were both top-tier beast Martial Souls, and Mighty Lion Douluo had extremely strong attack capabilities and possessed very strong strength attributes, while Qing Luan Douluo was extremely fast, with top-tier flying speed. The two sides were evenly matched.
Clearly, compared to the original work, in this kind of major battle, Tang Xiao had no way to use the Clear Sky Formation, as the gap in the number of Soul Masters between the two sides was simply too large. Although Tang Hao's body had recovered, he wouldn't use the Great Sumeru Hammer unless it was a critical moment.
The other Titled Douluo each had their opponents. The number of Titled Douluo on both sides was similar, but the average Soul Power of the Spirit Empire's six great Enshrined was higher than that of the Heaven Dou Empire, allowing the two sides to barely hold their own.
Thousand Jun Douluo and Subduing Demon Douluo were extremely powerful, both having reached level ninety-six, and the two brothers cooperated extremely well. The other three Titled Douluo from the Clear Sky Sect could barely contend with the two of them.
The remaining elders of the Spirit Empire were entangled by the Body Sect members. Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, and Lin Gong fought against Demon Bear Douluo, Ghost Leopard Douluo, and Saint Dragon Douluo respectively.
As for Bai He, due to his poor attack power, he was in charge of coordination on the battlefield, relaying various messages to facilitate Emperor Xue Ye and Marshal Ge Long's control of the battle situation.
Dugu Bo was targeted by Kite Falcon Douluo. Kite Falcon Douluo's Martial Soul was the Flame Eagle, which was not only extremely fast but also had superb flying ability. The fire attribute somewhat countered Dugu Bo's poison attribute, making Dugu Bo hesitant to go too deep.
The gap in Soul Master power between the two sides was simply too large. Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong were the key to bridging the Soul Master gap.
Currently, Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong were both top-tier Soul Douluo. Their Martial Souls, the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, possessed extremely strong amplification attributes, which could amplify the Heaven Dou Empire's Soul Masters to the greatest extent, ensuring that the Soul Master legions wouldn't be too disadvantaged when they clashed.
However, the Spirit Empire had too many Soul Douluo and Soul Saints, and they were all racking their brains to attack the Soul Masters with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.
Bone Douluo guarded Ning Fengzhi closely. This was the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and no harm was allowed to come to him.
Qin Shuang and Yang Wei also guarded Ning Rongrong closely. They knew that Ning Rongrong was Yang Xiong's wife and the inheritor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the future of the sect, and could not be lost.
As for the other younger generation, in this large-scale Soul Master legion battle, they couldn't perform too outstandingly and could only fully contend with the enemy. Even Feng Xiaotian and Xiao Wu, who had the highest Soul Power, had a relatively weak impact on the battle situation.
They were basically all Soul Douluo, while the Spirit Empire had a crushing advantage in the number of Soul Douluo over the Heaven Dou Empire.
The Spirit Empire also possessed a large number of support Soul Masters, just like the Soul Saint with the Bright Gold Scepter Martial Soul encountered in the Soul Master Grand Competition. Although their support ability was not as good as Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong, they also had their unique aspects and were one of the strongest support Soul Masters in the Spirit Empire.
The entire battle of Jialing Pass was extremely brutal. The two sides invested over two million troops and nearly fifty thousand Soul Masters. The Heaven Dou Empire had an advantage in troops, while the Spirit Empire had an advantage in Soul Masters.
In terms of the total number of Soul Masters, it had almost encompassed over sixty percent of the Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent, and the Titled Douluo accounted for over eighty percent of the total number on the land.
The entire battle was extremely tragic. Neither side could defeat the other. There were all sorts of Soul Skills everywhere, and slaughter was everywhere. Blood flowed all over the battlefield, and ordinary soldiers were mowed down in swaths, their lives like blades of grass.
Compared to them, the Spirit Empire's Spirit Master Legion was truly invincible. No matter how strong an army was, facing a Spirit Master Legion was ultimately insufficient. Their armor simply couldn't withstand a large number of spirit abilities.
The entire battle began early in the morning. At first, everyone was extremely excited, whether they were Spirit Masters or soldiers, all wanting to achieve merit. By evening, both sides began to grow weary. Even Titled Douluo powerhouses felt somewhat overwhelmed after continuous fighting.
The entire battlefield was like a massive meat grinder. Whether it was Spirit Masters or ordinary people, they fell quickly. Although no Titled Douluo powerhouses perished on either side, many Soul Douluo and Soul Sages were killed or injured.
Even many Titled Douluo were covered in injuries. Especially Tang San, when fighting against Bibi Dong, he had to endure the attack of Bibi Dong's Death Spider Emperor's pincers. Bibi Dong likewise had to endure several of Tang San's hammer strikes.
However, Bibi Dong's Six-Winged Purple Light Wings granted her extremely strong flying ability, allowing her to suppress Tang San with speed.
If others were somewhat dejected, Tang San seemed to grow stronger the more he fought, becoming increasingly excited. Especially when enveloped by the immense bloody aura, his eyes seemed to gradually turn red, and the evil aura grew stronger and stronger.
