Chapter 244: Star Crown Sect and Sword Sect!
This is the army of the Tiandou Empire!
On the vast plain, thousands of tents rose from the ground, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers rushed back and forth in the tent. The sound of footsteps and horses treading on the eaves were like heavy rain, making dense sounds, making the originally deserted plain lively.
The camp tent stretches for miles, and is far away from front and back. There are tens of thousands of tents. There are also a large number of troops coming from behind the camp, as if endless. 20% of the plain is occupied by these armies, with an astonishing number.
At the center of the tent, there is a tent that is larger and more exquisite than the surrounding tent. On it is a golden banner with the words "Tian Dou Empire" written on it, swaying in the breeze, carrying an inexplicable majesty.
The decoration in the central camp is not complicated and luxurious. There are only a dozen large chairs covered with special soul beast fur. Two are located in the innermost part, the main seat, and the others are located on both sides of the main seat. The overall large tent is a bit simple.
At this time, the camp was filled with seats. As the commander, Ge Long sat on the main seat, and next to him was a tall and burly middle-aged man.
He is tall and burly, has a strong breath and a solemn face. He just sat quietly wherever he puts great pressure on people, as if a mountain stood in front of him, giving people an inconsistent feeling.
The leader of Haotian Sect, Tang Xiao!
On the right side of the Gelong were eight imperial generals wearing silver armor. Among the eight were old men with white beards and young men in their prime. Although they were of different ages, they were all majestic, heroic, and a faint smell of blood all over their bodies. They were obviously spent years fighting.
These eight people are the generals in the Tiandou Army second only to Ge Long. Each of them has a considerable prestige in the army, and have made great achievements in the empire and killed countless enemies!
There were eight guests sitting under Tang Xiao, all of whom were old men. Several of them were tall and burly, and they looked a bit similar to Tang Xiao on the main seat. These were the four elders of Haotian Sect. Except for the seven elders who had not been promoted to the title Douluo, the other three were all named Douluo.
The four elders of Haotian Sect sat in the last four seats, and the seventh elders were at the end, and the fourth elders, the third elders and the second elders were successively the fourth elders.
Above the second elder is a man wearing a green robe with long dark green hair draped behind his shoulders. He has a single, thin and slender figure, which is Dugu Bo.
He was protecting Xue Qinghe in close proximity. For this war, Xue Qinghe "specially" sent the front line to assist Marshal Ge Long.
Sitting on Dugu Bo is an old man in a golden dress, with starry eyebrows, sword eyes, straight facial features, and extremely extraordinary appearance. Although his skin is slightly dry and wrinkled due to his old age, he is still a bit handsome.
There was a bit of majesty and arrogance between his eyebrows, and an extraordinary temperament, with a kind of pride and domineeringness emitted from the depths of his bloodline, like an emperor wearing a crown. Even if he was sitting in the guest seat, the momentum pressed the Ge Long and Tang Xiao on the main seat.
This is Xu Hui from the Hidden Sect of Xingluo Empire, the 91st-level titled Douluo, Wuhun Xingguan, the younger brother of the contemporary Xingguan Sect leader, and the second in command of the sect.
Since the Wuhun Empire adopted a defensive strategy against the Xingluo Empire and a strong offensive strategy against the Tiandou Empire, the situation on the Tiandou Empire is obviously not optimistic.
In order to prevent the Tiandou Empire from losing to the Wuhun Empire, the Sect Master Xingguan specially sent Xu Hui to the Tiandou Empire and brought 300 strong men from the sect to help the Tiandou Empire.
However, their assistance was not free. If the Tiandou Empire and Haotian Sect had not promised them many benefits, they would have been too lazy to come to the Tiandou Empire to trek into this muddy waters.
Of course, there are other considerations in this. Originally, in their opinion, although the Spirit Hall is powerful, their Xingguan Sect is not as easy to knead as soft persimmons. They have the confidence to protect their sect in this turmoil.
After all, the Star Crown Sect is in a hidden state and has no direct conflict with the Spirit Hall. The two sides just need not provoke each other, and then the matter will be fine. It has nothing to do with me if you dominate the world.
However, after destroying the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect overnight in the Martial Soul Palace, their thoughts gradually faded and they began to feel a sense of crisis.
The strength of the Spirit Hall seemed to be a little beyond their imagination. At that time, they began to consider whether to be born and joined forces with some forces to suppress the arrogant arrogance of the Spirit Hall.
This kind of consideration arose, and with the persuasion of Tang Xiao and the royal family of the Xingluo Empire, they decided to be born and help the two empires compete with the Spirit Hall.
Xu Hui's soul power is not as strong as Dugu Bo's high, but his special identity and the power of his martial soul make him qualified to sit in Dugu Bo's position.
The two seats above were two thin old men, both wearing black robes and two crossed black gold swords embroidered on their chests. The two looked seventy-seventh-slight, but they were quite different in age, and they were a father and son.
The younger old man had a weaker aura than the older one, but he was also very extraordinary. His aura was a little stronger than Dugu Bo. It was obvious that his soul power was higher than Dugu Bo, otherwise he would not have been on Dugu Bo's position.
The two of them exuded a sharp aura, as if there were thousands of swords surrounding them, resonating with each other. A black gold sword was pressed under their palms, and their eyes were slightly closed and they fell into a false sleep.
These two people come from the Hidden Sect and Sword Sect of the Tiandou Empire!
The slightly younger old man is named Tuoba Xiao, the contemporary sect leader of the Sword Sect, with a level 95 titled Douluo, a martial soul black spirit dragon sword, and a top martial soul. His quality is slightly better than that of the Seven Killing Sword and is similar to the Haotian Hammer.
The one sitting in his position was his father, Tuoba Tian, the acting leader of the Sword Sect, who was over 200 years old, with a level 98 super Douluo, and a martial soul black spirit dragon sword.
The overall strength of the Sword Sect is not inferior to that of the Haotian Sect. In addition to Tuoba Tian and his son, there is also a titled Douluo in the sect, who is just to stay in the sect and has not come to the battlefield.
The strength of the three Douluo in one sect is definitely the top in the mainland, much better than the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect. If it weren't for the existence of Tang Chen, the extreme Douluo, the sword sect would definitely be above the Haotian Sect. After all, Tuoba Tian has a super high soul power of level 98, which is one level higher than Tang Xiao.
The reason why the Sword Sect was born is similar to that of the Xingguan Sect. They were forced to be born after feeling the threat from the Martial Soul Hall, but the reason for their birth is also mixed with some personal emotions.
Tuoba Tian and Chen Xin's father are the best friends. Both of them are sword cultivators. They met because of swords, and became confidants because of their obsession with swords. They often talked and communicated together, traveled to the mainland, and were like brothers.
After knowing that Chen Xin's father died at Qian Daoliu's hands, Tuoba Tian rushed to Wuhun City and challenged Qian Daoliu to avenge him. However, he was no match for Qian Daoliu after all, and was seriously injured by Qian Daoliu. If he hadn't taken into account the background of his Sword Sect, he would have died at Qian Daoliu's hands.
After that, he returned to the Sword Sect and worked hard to practice, wanting to make another breakthrough, reach the same level as Qiandaoliu, and then seek revenge on him.
However, it is so difficult to break through the bottleneck between level 98 and level 99. It took him decades and failed to reach the extreme Douluo level as he wished.
He failed to break through the limit of Douluo, and he did not have the ability to take revenge, so he stayed in the sect and practiced hard, intending to close his death, and would never leave the limit. If he hadn't heard that the son of an old friend was killed, he might not have appeared here now.
Part of the reason why the Sword Sect was born this time was because Tuoba Tian wanted to take this opportunity to avenge his old friend.
More than a dozen people sat upright on the seats, with a slightly solemn expression. Behind them were more than twenty generals and sect strong men. They also had the qualifications to participate in this meeting, but they had not met the conditions to take the seat yet.
Among the few people behind Dugu Bo, a middle-aged man with broken arms stood quietly. His expression was a little ugly, as if he was suppressing the anger in his heart. This man was the master Yu Xiaogang.
He didn't even have a seat in attendance at such a meeting, which made him feel insulted. He worked hard to train the soul master for you, but he actually received such a response, which made him feel a little depressed and unwilling.
"If I hadn't wanted to use your hands to destroy the Spirit Hall, I would never have swallowed this tone today!" Yu Xiaogang thought viciously in his heart.
In fact, if it weren't for Yu Xiaogang's soul master who had been training in the Empire and the Three Sects for a long time, and his title as a master, he wouldn't even be qualified to participate in this meeting.
You should know that those who can enter this camp to attend the meeting are either the top generals of the Tiandou Empire, the titled Douluo powerful man and the sect elders with high status in the Soul Master Sect.
If the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect was not destroyed, Yu Xiaogang could come in to attend the meeting with the identity of the young leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect. It is not impossible to have a seat, but now he has no support, and letting him in is already giving him enough face.
You should know that the reason why Yu Xiaogang in the original work was able to have such an identity in the Tiandou Empire was partly because of his outstanding wisdom and good at making suggestions, but more because of his relationship with Teacher Tang San.
Whether it is a snowy night or an avalanche, the reason why they value Yu Xiaogang so much is that they want to win over Tang San through Yu Xiaogang. In their minds, no matter how smart the master is, he is not as important as Tang San with twin martial souls. The latter's strength and potential are what they value the most.
After all, no matter how many strategies are, if the absolute strength gap between the two sides cannot be made up, it will be useless. The world is still respected by strength. No matter how much strength is, it will be futile.
As emperors, they value more who is more useful to them and who can stabilize the country for themselves, rather than those things that are verbally speaking.
Ge Long, who was sitting on the main seat, glanced at everyone, saw that everyone was here, nodded to Tang Xiao beside him, and said, "I don't need to say more about your purpose!"
Seeing Ge Long speak, everyone in the venue nodded slightly, their expressions becoming more serious, and they listened carefully to what the old coach was going to say next.
Ge Long didn't keep it a secret and continued, "Our Tiandou Empire's 1.2 million troops have reached this place, and the camp has been set up. He is ready to go to the battlefield at any time. There are still 300,000 troops coming one after another. It is expected that by dusk tomorrow, all of them will be able to arrive and complete the meeting."
"At the same time, our Tiandou Empire brought more than 5,000 soul masters this time, plus the three thousand disciples of Haotian Sect, five hundred disciples of the Sword Sect, three hundred disciples of Xingguan Sect, and soul masters supported by other sects, a total of about 10,000 soul masters." Ge Long slowly told everyone about his strength.
With an army of 1.2 million, the number of soul masters over 10,000, and eight titled Douluo strong men, such strength cannot be underestimated. Everyone has a little more confidence when hearing these numbers.
"By the way, our Tiandou Empire is still dispatching troops from all over the country. It is expected that we can gather 700,000 to 800,000 reserve troops to support the front line," Ge Long added, hoping that everyone will be more confident in this war.
"Since we have gathered 900,000 troops and more than 10,000 soul masters, and our high-end combat power is here, then we will launch an attack tomorrow!"
"I saw Bibidong leading more than 10,000 soul masters to Jialing Pass a few days ago. Logically speaking, some layouts should have been made long ago. When I saw our army coming yesterday, I would probably have taken action and caught us off guard."
"But they didn't move at all, and seemed to be waiting for something, which made me a little uneasy. I think it's better to start early, so as not to wait for their follow-up support to arrive. At that time, it will be much more difficult for us to conquer Jialing Pass," said Xu Hui.
He came to Jialing Pass alone more than ten days ago and observed his every move inside Jialing Pass, so he knew a lot about the situation inside Jialing Pass.
He seems arrogant and conceited on the surface, and is the type of impulsive and brainless, but in fact he is meticulous and cautious in doing things, and never makes the low-level mistake of underestimating his enemies.
This can be seen from his continuous observation of the enemy for more than ten days that he would never dare to look down on a powerful enemy like the Martial Soul Empire. He knew that knowing oneself and an enemy was the way to defeat the enemy.
"I think Deputy Sect Master Xu Hui is right. If Bibi Dong is really waiting for some support, then it is indeed the best choice for us to take action as soon as possible." Tang Xiao thought about it carefully and nodded in support.
The others nodded when they heard this. Tuoba Xiao ended his fake sleep the moment Ge Long spoke. Tuoba Tian still closed his eyes slightly, as if he had not heard their conversation, and he looked like a master.
Everyone was not displeased with Tuoba Tian's attitude. With his strength, he was indeed qualified to do this, and no one dared to have any objections. Who said he was the strongest? If he hadn't cared too much about this seat, then it would not be Tang Xiao's turn to sit at the main seat.
"But! I can deal with Bibidong, so I will leave the others to you. According to my sense that in addition to Bibidong, there are seven titled Douluo in Jialing Pass. The highest among these people is only level 93, so it is not difficult for you to deal with it."
"As long as you kill these titled Douluo, it's no problem to take down Jialing Pass," Tuoba Tian said lightly, still with his eyes slightly closed as he spoke.
In his opinion, as long as he can kill Bibidong and other titled Douluo, the other soul masters of the Martial Soul Empire will immediately become a mess and no longer pose a threat. It would be natural for them to take down Jialing Pass.
He has been at level 98 for decades and considered himself an invincible existence in level 98 and has absolute confidence to kill Bibidong.
When they heard Tuoba Tian's affirmative tone, they seemed to be 100% sure to kill Bibidong. Everyone thought for a while and thought that this arrangement was feasible. As long as they won the high-end combat power, it would undoubtedly determine the overall direction of the war.
After all, the biggest advantage of the Spirit Hall compared to the Heavenly Dou Empire is the high-level soul masters. The number of those low-level soul masters can be completely compensated by the number of troops. If the Spirit Hall is at a disadvantage in terms of the top combat power, then they will have no advantage.
"The general attack tomorrow is not bad, but I am worried that if that strong man is present, I'm afraid..." Ge Long hesitated for a while, frowned and said, looking at Tang Xiao.
The strong man he was talking about was naturally Long Chen. He had heard that when Emperor Qinghe was assassinated, a super strong man with the Haotian Hammer Martial Soul injured Tang Xiao and saved the assassins. According to what Tang Xiao said, the strength of the strong man probably had reached the limit of the soul master.
"Marcel doesn't have to worry. If that strong man is in Jialing Pass, my Haotian Sect will deal with him and he will not threaten others!" Tang Xiao said with a certain tone.
He was also very afraid of the strong man and was a little scared, but his inability to deal with it does not mean that no one can deal with it.
"Take it serious?" Ge Long's eyes lit up and he confirmed.
"Yes!" Tang Xiao nodded seriously.
"Okay! With this sentence from the Sect Master Tang Xiao, I'm relieved." Ge Long laughed, then stood up and said loudly, "Since that's the case, then we will attack Jialing Pass tomorrow, strive to defeat him, and take down Jialing Pass!"
