Chapter 311 The King of Illusions
"Damn it, why did we have to encounter a soul beast riot! Which soul beast is commanding these beasts!" Dong Wuye spat out a mouthful of blood, carrying a heavy soul guide ray, and pulled the trigger hard at an armored horned bull that was overturning a soul guide fortress.
A soul-guided beam as thick as a thigh struck the thick armor on the armored horned bull.
The high-temperature soul-guided beam quickly burned through the thick armor of the armored horned bull and pierced its body.
However, another spirit beast quickly took the place of the armored horned bull and continued the charge.
"Young General! The brothers in front can't hold them off anymore! These beasts seem to feel no pain!" a guard ran up to Dong Wuye and said.
Watching the Soul Masters die one after another, Dong Wuye's heart bled. Every Soul Master who died here was someone he had painstakingly trained.
"Young General, let's go! We'll stay here and cover the rear!" the guard urged Dong Wuye.
Dong Wuye shook his head slightly and said, "We're already surrounded by these beasts. Even if we break through the encirclement, we can't outrun those spotted eagles in the sky!"
"Right now, we can only wait for that large soul tool that just passed by to come and provide support! Hopefully, it can hold out until the nearby garrison arrives to help!"
After saying that, Dong Wuye slammed his fist into the cage beside him and cursed, "Was it you, you beast, who did this?!"
The soul beast inside the cage remained silent, enduring Dong Wuye's curses.
Ye Nanxiao jumped onto a tree to hide himself and avoid the sight of the soul beasts in the sky.
"It seems this Soul Master Corps didn't bring many heavy Soul Tools. At most, their few armed Soul Tool Fortresses have already been overturned. Once the last line of firepower is breached, this Soul Master Corps is finished." Ye Nanxiao looked at the Soul Masters holding heavy Soul Tool Shields in front of them and leaped forward again.
"Send half of our firepower to that armored horned bull and the ringed bear! I refuse to believe that those two beasts can still move even if they're dead!" Dong Wuye shouted.
Dozens of soul-guided rays were immediately fired from the Soul Master Corps and blasted towards the Armored Horned Bull.
The violent explosion blasted dozens of craters of varying sizes into the ground.
The armored horned bull let out a mournful cry, its hooves slipped, and its massive body fell into the pit, where it was buried by the soul-guided rays.
The ringed bear's paws glowed with a pale yellow light, its arm muscles bulged, and the rings on its body seemed to come alive.
"roar!"
The ringed bear forcefully plunged its paw into the ground, and a pale yellow light instantly spread across a large area of land.
With a burst of brute force, the ringed bear actually ripped up a large area of land, which stood upright in front of the armored horned bull.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the spotted eagles in the sky unleashed a barrage of wind blades, mixed with the venom spewed by the sharp-tailed snakes, attacking the Soul Master Corps.
"Activate the third protective shield!" Dong Wuye shouted hurriedly, patted his body, and threw a hexagonal soul-guided shield onto the ground.
The Soul Masters who were facing the firepower of a group of Soul Beasts quickly erected a protective shield.
The soul-guided shield that Dong Wuye threw out immediately emitted a beam of light. After flying to a height of five meters, the beam dispersed and transformed into a semi-circular dome that fell down, covering Dong Wuye's side.
Several fiery tigers continuously spat out fireballs.
The violent explosion produced a large amount of smoke and dust.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Nanxiao jumped behind Dong Wuye and the others, finding a spot where there were fewer soul beasts to attack.
Here, a three-headed, sharp-bladed mantis and two six-legged, gold-devouring beasts were constantly trying to break through the soul-guiding barrier set up by Dong Wuye.
"How much cultivation does the soul beast in the cage have that can control a soul beast that has been around for tens of thousands of years? It must be close to fifty thousand years old, right?" Ye Nanxiao looked at the 1.6-meter-tall Sharp-Blade Mantis and suddenly swung the blade in his hand.
One after another, throwing knives pierced through the thighs of the three-headed razor mantis.
Sensing the attack, the three-headed razor mantises immediately shifted their target, all looking in the direction from which the flying knives had come.
After throwing the flying knife, Ye Nanxiao changed his landing point.
A soul-guided amplification gauntlet suddenly appeared on his right hand, and Ye Nanxiao flashed in front of the three-headed razor mantis like a ghost, throwing a punch.
The Soul-Guided Amplifying Gauntlets slammed heavily onto the belly of a Blade Mantis, sending it flying five meters away.
The powerful force directly impacted the razor mantis's self-protection mechanism, causing it to lose consciousness.
Using the momentum from his previous punch, Ye Nanxiao turned around and threw another punch, simultaneously throwing three flying knives with his left hand.
Three throwing knives were plunged into the joints of the third razor mantis's arms and right leg.
After stunning another Blade Mantis, Ye Nanxiao instantly put away his Soul Guidance Amplification Gauntlets and pointed at the third Blade Mantis.
The third mantis opened its jaws wide, about to roar, but found its mouth instantly frozen.
After dealing with the three-headed razor mantis, Ye Nanxiao turned his attention to the two six-legged gold-devouring beasts that were attacking the soul-guided protective shield.
The two six-legged gold-devouring beasts, which were attacking the soul-guided protective shield, suddenly felt their feet slip and their heavy bodies fell into the deep pit.
Solid ice rods grew out of the pit, trapping the six legs of the six-legged gold-devouring beast.
"Moo!" A sound of an elephant's call rang out, followed by a tremor of the earth.
Ye Nanxiao quickly jumped onto a large tree not far away. Using the canopy as cover, he quietly observed the direction from which the elephant's cry had come.
A colossal rock-collapse elephant, as tall as a three-story building, is slowly joining the battle.
Its enormous size forced all the soul beasts that were besieging Dong Wuye and his companions to make way for it.
The arrival of the Rock Collapse Giant Elephant caused the other soul beasts to stop attacking Dong Wuye and the others, standing there dumbfounded.
Seeing that the soul beasts had stopped moving, the soul masters guarding the rear quickly left behind two soul guide shields and rushed to the front of the Rock Collapse Giant Elephant to raise their shields. Although their hands were trembling as they raised the shields, military orders were as firm as mountains.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Nanxiao flashed to the front of the soul guide shield, and a short stick-shaped soul guide appeared in his hand.
Ye Nanxiao aimed the staff at the soul-guiding shield and gently twisted the short staff in his hand.
A laser beam as thin as an iron needle instantly pierced through the soul-guiding shield and penetrated into it.
A few seconds later, the soul-guided shield in front of Ye Nanxiao stopped functioning.
A small gap appeared in the soul-guided protective shield, and Ye Nanxiao took the opportunity to slip inside.
More than a dozen ice mirrors appeared, and Ye Nanxiao quietly disappeared into the air.
The Soul Master Corps still had about twenty members left with the strength to fight, and now they faced a mountain of...
"Impossible! Why would a giant rock-collapse elephant, which lives deep within the mountains, appear here!" Dong Wuye muttered to himself, his face ashen.
"Young General, we came out in a hurry this time, and we don't have any soul-guided cannons for targeting large soul beasts right now! Let's go!" A guard said, reaching out to remove the soul-guided device from Dong Wuye's body.
Dong Wuye allowed the guard to dismantle the soul tools on his body, his eyes gradually turning bloodshot.
A sharp, piercing sound came from behind.
A soul-guided cannonball landed instantly on the back of the Rock Collapse Giant Elephant, exploding into a large area of fire.
Several soul-guided cannonballs then exploded on the Rock Collapse Giant Elephant, the violent explosions creating large shockwaves that blew away several soul beasts.
"Dong Wuye! Run now!" a mechanical loudspeaker announced.
Ye Nanxiao turned his head and saw that it was the soul-guided cannonballs fired by Ju Zi and the others.
"Support?" A glimmer of hope appeared in Dong Wuye's eyes as he looked at the all-terrain soul-guided detector standing behind him.
Dong Wuye glanced at the cage beside him, instantly grabbed a soul-guided thruster, and rushed towards the all-terrain soul-guided detector, shouting, "Take the wounded brothers! We're retreating!"
"I'll be back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the Soul Masters abandoned the Soul Guidance Devices that had already been placed on the ground, grabbed their companions, put on their Soul Guidance Propulsion Devices, and followed closely behind Dong Wuye.
Seeing his chance, Ye Nanxiao quickly moved to the edge of the cage.
The massive elephant trunk, as thick as a giant rock pillar, tore through the dust and smoke. The rock-collapsed giant elephant forcefully supported itself with its two front legs, using its weight to stomp hard on the ground.
"Rumble rumble rumble!"
Giant, snake-like cracks crawled toward the all-terrain soul-guided probe.
Coco threw the overheated soul-guided cannon onto the cockpit floor, shaking it with her little hand. "It's burning hot!"
Orange was also holding a soul-guided cannon, her face slightly pale. Firing several soul-guided cannonballs in one go was quite taxing.
"Retreat!" Orange shouted.
Huo Yuhao quickly manipulated the all-terrain soul guide detector to roll into a ball and leave the scene.
Wherever the cracks in the ground passed, the ground collapsed, but the small patch of ground where Ye Nanxiao and the cage were located remained unscathed.
Ye Nanxiao clenched his right fist, and a hexagonal ice prism gleaming with cold light instantly condensed.
"Break!" Ye Nanxiao roared.
The extremely low temperature generated by the hexagonal ice allowed Ye Nanxiao to make a cut.
The little fox in his arms had already crawled out and was perched on Ye Nanxiao's shoulder, barking loudly.
The soul beast in the cage seemed to realize that Ye Nanxiao's actions were actually to save it, and did not react excessively.
Even the Rock Collapse Giant Elephant, which had just been hit by several soul-guided cannon shells, only roared to vent its anger at being injured, and did not make any move to attack Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao cut open the cage and jumped a few steps back.
The next moment, the cage split open, and the trapped soul beast gently pushed it open.
The upper half of the cage crashed to the ground, and a phantom fox with flowing fur stood up from within it.
The little phantom fox immediately leaped onto the ground and ran towards the phantom fox with all its might.
The phantom fox crouched down, stretched out a paw to hug the little phantom fox, and stuck out its tongue to groom the little phantom fox's fur.
Ye Nanxiao summoned his martial spirit and slowly walked towards the Illusion Fox.
As Ye Nanxiao stepped within fifteen steps of the Illusion Fox, a large crack suddenly appeared in the ground in front of him, from which raging flames spewed out.
Like a deep abyss passage leading straight to hell.
Ye Nanxiao looked down at the abyss and saw a fire serpent with wing membranes flying out from it.
"The Crimson Abyss Serpent, I didn't expect you'd seen this soul beast before." Ye Nanxiao ignored the Crimson Abyss Serpent that flew in front of him and strode forward.
"Hiss!"
The Crimson Abyss Serpent grew its mouth wide, spewing forth towering flames.
Looking up at the towering waves of flame that were about to fall, a fiery glint flashed in Ye Nanxiao's eyes.
"The King of Illusions truly lives up to his name," Ye Nanxiao sighed softly.
The towering flames vanished instantly, along with the Crimson Abyss Serpent.
The phantom fox, carrying its cub on its back, slowly walked up to Ye Nanxiao, its fox eyes filled with wariness.
"You're free now, give me back my daughter!" Ye Nanxiao said, pointing to the little fox sitting on the back of the phantom fox.
"Huh?" A look of confusion immediately appeared in the eyes of the phantom fox.
"Ahem, Xiao'er, the phantom fox in front of you is the mother of the little phantom fox," the Snow Empress reminded her.
The three foxes stared at each other in disbelief.
