Chapter 317 Heavenly Clouds and Phoenix Dawn
Looking at the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell hurtling towards him with earth-shattering force in the distance, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, and the air in his chest seemed to become heavy and viscous.
His expression was more solemn than ever before. With his current Soul Saint level cultivation, even if he used all his trump cards, there was absolutely no way he could block this attack.
"Teacher, I'll have to trouble you with this."
Huo Yuhao's voice rang out in the sea of consciousness. He couldn't stop the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon, but the Necromancer Saint God could definitely.
Electrolux was almost a god, and even though only a wisp of his soul now resides in his spiritual sea, his methods and foundation are far beyond what ordinary titled Douluo can match.
Huo Yuhao's voice echoed through the sea of consciousness, and all the souls present were solemn at this moment.
These souls had long been bound to Huo Yuhao through thick and thin, sharing both glory and ruin.
Electrolux's figure slowly emerged from the depths of the sea of consciousness, his face dignified and composed, still displaying the same unwavering calmness even in the face of a collapsing mountain.
However, this time, he did not take over Huo Yuhao's body without saying a word, just like he did on Devil's Island.
A faint smile appeared on his aged face: "It seems I won't need to take action this time."
Just as Huo Yuhao was wondering what his teacher meant by those words, his spiritual power at the Spirit Realm level detected a figure rushing towards him from the distant horizon at an unimaginable speed.
It was a streak of platinum-gold light that was still far away a moment ago, but then suddenly disappeared from Huo Yuhao's sight as if it had crossed the barrier of space.
Immediately afterwards, the streak of light appeared directly in front of him without warning, hovering steadily in mid-air, blocking him from the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball.
The figure was covered in a magnificent white-gold battle armor. Each armor plate was streamlined and fit the body perfectly. The edges of the armor were sharp as blades but elegant, and the surface was decorated with countless light blue flame patterns.
Behind her unfolded a pair of enormous wings of light. These wings were not physical objects, but rather formed from pure platinum-gold flames. With a gentle flap of her wings, she scattered countless star-like points of light, illuminating the surrounding dim sky.
Clearly, this was a four-word battle armor, and the person who came was naturally a four-word battle armor master. Huo Yuhao was very familiar with this battle armor.
"Aunt Leng?!"
Huo Yuhao's voice carried an undisguised surprise. The tension that had been building since the start of the battle finally eased slightly the moment he recognized the figure.
This four-character battle armor, named "Tianyun Fengxi," belongs to Leng Yaozhu, the deputy tower master of the Spirit Transmission Tower and the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo.
Leng Yaozhu did not reply, nor did she even turn around to look at Huo Yuhao behind her.
Behind her mask, her long, sharp phoenix eyes were now fixed intently on the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball that was now almost within reach.
She raised her right hand, her slender fingers gently clenching in the air. A highly refined white-gold flame suddenly flew out from her palm, pouncing precisely at the incoming shell like a phoenix spreading its wings.
Under her control, the Heavenly Phoenix True Fire became incredibly gentle, enveloping the level nine cannonball, which was powerful enough to level half a city, layer by layer.
The temperature of the flames was controlled just right, preventing the soul-guided projectile from detonating directly.
Then, a subtle spatial fluctuation, imperceptible to ordinary people, rippled out from in front of her, and the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball, enveloped in platinum flames, suddenly disappeared in mid-air.
Almost at the same moment, a deafening explosion suddenly erupted from the ruins far below, which had long been razed to the ground by previous bombings.
A massive mushroom cloud shot into the sky, and surging flames and thick smoke, along with a devastating shockwave, spread wildly in all directions, further ravaging the already devastated landscape beyond recognition.
Even from such a great distance, Huo Yuhao could still feel the scorching heat wave rushing towards him.
The power of a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball is so terrifying that even a Limit Douluo like Leng Yaozhu dared not confront it head-on. She could only use spatial means to transfer it to the lifeless "empty land" below and detonate it.
After the explosion, the sky finally quieted down completely. No more soul-guided shells came flying in, only the lingering smoke and the smell of burning remained in the air.
This attack by the Holy Spirit Cult seems to have finally come to an official end.
The magnificent white-gold four-character battle armor on Leng Yaozhu's body slowly retracted into her body, and she returned to her usual cold and noble appearance, only with a more solemn look between her brows than usual.
She turned around, her gaze quickly sweeping over Huo Yuhao from head to toe. Only after confirming that he was alright did the tension deep in her eyes subside somewhat.
But she still asked, "Are you alright?"
Not long ago, Shrek Academy was suddenly attacked, which naturally attracted Leng Yaozhu's full attention immediately.
Even with Leng Yaozhu's experience and temperament, her pupils shrank when she saw Shrek Academy being attacked by soul-guided cannons.
She never expected that the Holy Spirit Cult would have such audacity to launch such a large-scale frontal attack on Shrek Academy.
But when the two level-12 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells tore through the clouds and fell from the sky, Leng Yaozhu's expression changed completely.
Of course she knew what a Level 12 fixed-position soul-guided cannonball was. This god-killing ultimate weapon had been sealed in the Federation's core secret arsenal since it was created thousands of years ago, and was jointly supervised by the Federation Parliament and the Sea God Pavilion. In theory, neither party could mobilize it alone.
The fact that the Holy Spirit Cult was able to acquire two of them and deploy them within Shrek City through secret channels indicates that high-ranking officials of the Federation were involved, and it certainly wasn't just one or two people.
At that moment, Leng Yaozhu almost crushed the teacup in her hand. She knew that Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue were both at Shrek Academy, but the academy's soul guide shield and the Golden Tree's protective shield had been fully activated the moment the attack occurred, isolating the inside and outside of the academy into two worlds.
Even she, a Limit Douluo, couldn't forcefully break through that level of defensive barrier in a short time, so she could only stand in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters and watch helplessly.
Watching Shrek Academy reduced to scorched earth by the relentless bombardment of soul-guided cannons, watching those familiar buildings crumble in the explosions, watching Yun Ming's figure, like a pillar supporting the sky, radiate its final light in the air before quietly dissipating—
Her fingers gripped the window frame tightly, the veins on the back of her hands bulging, and a trace of sorrow crept onto her usually stern face.
When the protective shield finally disappeared and the deafening explosions gradually subsided, Leng Yaozhu did not hesitate at all. She instantly put on her four-word battle armor, and her whole body transformed into a white-gold streak of light, tearing through the sky and rushing towards Shrek Academy at top speed.
That's why he appeared in front of Huo Yuhao just now and used spatial means to transfer the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell away.
Meeting Leng Yaozhu's concerned gaze, Huo Yuhao gently shook his head, indicating that he was fine.
Leng Yaozhu didn't say anything more, but nodded slightly, and then she and Huo Yuhao slowly descended from mid-air, stepping once again onto the scorched earth of Poseidon Island.
She glanced at Gu Yue and the others standing in the ruins, and only after confirming that they had not suffered any real harm did the tense look in her eyes relax slightly.
She didn't waste time with pleasantries, simply saying, "Leave here first."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone felt the surrounding space suddenly blur, and after a moment of dizziness, they found themselves no longer on the ruins, but in a clean and tidy room.
Almost simultaneously, the six people turned their heads to look out the window, where they saw countless plumes of smoke rising from the ground, like twisted black pythons winding their way into the sky, turning the entire sky into a depressing gray-black.
Not far away, Shrek City, once bustling and lined with shops, is now mostly reduced to a shocking ruin.
They were currently in a very high position, with a view that overlooked almost the entire city.
Without a doubt, this is the tallest building in Shrek City, the headquarters of the Spirit Tower.
"You all rest here and don't wander off."
After saying this, Leng Yaozhu hurriedly turned and left, her narrow phoenix eyes filled with a coldness and determination that Huo Yuhao had never seen before.
