Chapter 246 Flooding of Dragon Throat Gorge
As the hour of Xu approached, outside Dragon Throat Gorge, the Heavenly Soul Eastern Army's soul-guided artillery roared with deafening force.
The blazing beams of light, like a meteor shower, struck the lower and middle sections of the cliffs on both sides of the canyon. The intense flames from the explosions illuminated the dim sky as if it were daytime.
The attention of the Dragon Throat Gorge defenders was instantly drawn to the artillery fire. Dense beams of soul-guided energy poured down from the firing ports on the cliff face, clashing with the Eastern Army's artillery fire in an attempt to block the narrow entrance.
Huo Yuhao's mental power swept across everything in Dragon Throat Gorge and shared the situation in real time with the Eastern Army, Tianhe Wuchen, and the Holy Dragon Brigade.
At the same time, Long Teng and the members of the Holy Dragon Brigade also arrived at the other side of the cliff.
"Everything is ready."
Huo Yuhao placed his palm against the cliff face on his side, using the resonance of his heartstrings to remind all the members of the Heavenly Soul Empire who were vying for control of the canyon.
"Five breaths later, the Holy Dragon Brigade and I will first create a tremor in the cliff face. You will then take the opportunity to climb to the top, launch a lightning attack, and take control of the area by decapitation strike."
"Then, the water-attribute soul master and I worked together to reverse the waterfall, forcibly diverting the river and flooding the dragon's throat!"
"three!"
The cannon fire continued, and the Dragon's Throat Gorge defenders' firepower was firmly drawn to the entrance of the waterfall canyon.
"two!"
The light emanating from the Holy Dragon Brigade and Long Teng reached its peak, like an enraged dragon about to erupt.
Meanwhile, all the water-attribute soul masters in Tianhe Wuchen were fully prepared, ready to reverse the flow of the waterfall at any moment.
"—!"
"Take action! A communion with Heaven!"
boom-!
On Huo Yuhao's side, he suddenly exerted force with his palm, and the shockwave of the Dragon Abyss Earth Rumbled out!
The shockwave emanated from Huo Yuhao's palm, spreading outwards like ripples from a boulder thrown into a calm lake, especially upwards!
Click!
The rock strata, hollowed out by the Douling defenders to build walkways and firing ports, instantly groaned under the weight!
A massive, spiderweb-like crack spread visibly around Huo Yuhao's palm!
Large sections of rock suddenly crumbled and collapsed!
Smoke and dust mixed with gravel shot into the sky!
At the same time, on the opposite cliff, the Dust Dragon Martial Souls of the Holy Dragon Brigade possessed each other, echoing Long Teng's Mountain Dragon Martial Soul!
The armor on Long Teng's body shone with a hazy light as he slammed his palms hard against the rock wall!
As if struck by a series of earthquakes, even more violent collapses and cracks erupted beneath the densely defended artillery positions!
Huge rocks tumbled and crashed down, directly blocking several crucial firing ports. Even worse, some unfortunate gun emplacements, along with their bases, were swept away by the collapsing rocks and plunged into the abyss!
"Now! Reach the summit!"
"All water-attribute soul masters, follow me and redirect the waterfall to the raging river!"
Huo Yuhao's mental command resounded like thunder in the minds of the elites, including the Azure Dragon Guard, the Body Sect, Wu Bufan, and Yun Ting.
"Rush!"
The eyes of these elites gleamed, and they all transformed into mountain peaks that tore through the dust and smoke, rushing straight to the top of the cliff along the relatively stable collapsed slope created by Huo Yuhao and the Holy Dragon Brigade!
"Purifying Lotus, provide covering fire!" Vina's voice echoed in everyone's hearts.
The elite troops moved with incredible speed, and in the instant that the Dragon Throat Gorge defenders were thrown into disarray by the sudden and terrifying collapse of the cliffs on both sides and the fierce artillery fire from the Eastern Army and the Lotus of Purification below, resulting in a huge gap in the Soul Guidance Cannon's firepower, they boldly climbed to the top!
Wu Bufan was one with his sword, like a streak of blue lightning, his steel sword intent condensed to the extreme.
With unstoppable penetrating power, he stabbed fiercely at the weakest point of the shield's energy node!
Just as the defenders on the mountaintop were trying to organize an effective counterattack, the sky before them completely darkened.
At the entrance to the canyon, the two waterfalls, which roared like silver dragons and carried immense power, underwent a terrifying transformation!
Boom!
The deafening sound of water suddenly rose to an extremely terrifying level!
The instant Huo Yuhao's voice fell into everyone's hearts, he unleashed the ultimate water power transformed from the extreme ice origin of the Azure Dragon Martial Soul during its evolution!
At the same time, his spiritual power surged, even mobilizing the spiritual essence of Tianmeng for millions of years!
Together with dozens of water-attribute soul masters from Tianhe Wuchen, all wearing flying soul tools, he instantly enveloped the two raging waterfalls converging at the entrance of the canyon!
The rushing water seemed to crash into a dam, and under the influence of Huo Yuhao's mental power and all his water-attribute soul skills, it suddenly surged upwards!
It's not a simple standstill, but a violent countercurrent!
The turbid river water, carrying white foam, was lifted upwards by the combined power of heaven and earth!
Huo Yuhao unleashed his domain, his spiritual power transforming into a giant hand, which, together with the water-attribute soul masters who soared into the sky, lifted the waterfall high!
A curtain of water, tens of feet high and tens of feet thick, was formed above the canyon by a reversed motion!
"Backflow!"
The moment Huo Yuhao finished speaking, the suspended water curtain was no longer simply being held up, but was given a violent force!
The deafening roar surpassed the sum of all the previous artillery fire and landslides!
This tributary of the raging river, forcibly pushed to its limit, surged forth like a celestial river bursting its banks or a giant dragon turning over, carrying a devastating force as it poured into the narrow mouth of the Dragon's Throat Gorge!
The target was none other than the main force of the Fighting Spirits, which had been suppressed by the Eastern Army's artillery fire and thrown into chaos by the surprise attack from the cliff top, and was now exposed at the bottom of the canyon!
The fighting spirit defenders, who had been relying on fortifications to try to hold their ground, were now terrified!
They looked up in horror and saw a murky, roaring, sky-covering curtain crashing down with the force of a collapsing mountain!
The turbid torrent, imbued with the power of the previous landslide, poured madly into the depths of the canyon along the narrow canyon passage with unstoppable force!
At this moment, neither sturdy bunkers nor dense formations of soldiers appear fragile and vulnerable in the face of this immense power of heaven and earth!
Previously, Tianmeng mobilized the icy sea to flood the Sun and Moon Peninsula. Now, Huo Yuhao, using his million-year-old spiritual essence as a guide, forcibly reversed the largest tributary of the Raging Waves River, flooding the Dragon Throat Gorge!
Those makeshift defensive fortifications were torn apart and swept away in an instant, like paper toys!
The soldiers were swept away like ants, their bones and flesh smashed against the jagged cliffs, their screams completely swallowed by the raging flood.
At this moment, the entire bottom of Dragon's Throat Gorge has been transformed into a deadly swamp!
The tributary of the raging river, which had been forcibly diverted, now surged headlong into the fifth gate of hell!
The moment the waterfall crashed down, Huo Yuhao and the other Soul Masters carrying flying Soul Tools managed to escape in time.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao transformed into a ten-zhang-long azure dragon, protecting these people tightly behind him.
Before him, 150 Soul Saints from the Douling Empire rose into the air, their various lights converging into a breathtaking storm of soul power.
This is already the most formidable military force that the Douling royal family can mobilize.
They were clearly utterly shocked by the power of Huo Yuhao's flooding of Dragon Throat Gorge.
"Huo Yuhao! There's no Gu Tian self-destructing to protect you here today! Prepare to die!"
The leader was an old man with a long beard and hair; his martial spirit was a huge mountain-splitting axe.
Before he could even process why Huo Yuhao's martial soul had changed, all his spirit rings flashed, and the axe blade tore through the air, bringing a world-shaking force as it cleaved down on Huo Yuhao!
Behind him, more than a hundred powerful auras soared into the sky, enveloping the area where Huo Yuhao was like a storm!
"You all return to the Eastern Army camp to rest and reorganize; leave the rest to me."
Huo Yuhao's voice resonated in their hearts.
Facing the combined attack of 150 Soul Saints filled with rage, Huo Yuhao showed no fear, his dragon eyes revealing only calmness.
A thousand years in an instant!
A dragon's roar that seemed to pierce through the ages instantly froze the massive axe blade that was tearing everything apart, as well as the terrifying torrent of soul skills that followed!
Only the ten-zhang-long azure dragon transformed by Huo Yuhao was the only moving entity in this frozen space-time!
The moment all the attacks were frozen, Huo Yuhao's Azure Dragon body soared fiercely into the sky!
He separated 150 strands of spiritual energy from between his eyebrows, which bound the bodies of these Soul Saints tightly like iron chains, binding them all high in the sky!
The rushing river below, the burning canyon, and the roaring artillery fire all became blurred backgrounds.
Then, a series of muffled thunderclaps suddenly rang out in the sky!
Thunder sounds from the sky!
The once clear night sky was instantly swallowed up by endless black clouds. The thick clouds of calamity, like a boiling sea of ink, rolled and gathered above everyone's heads!
Golden-blue lightning bolts darted wildly through the depths of the clouds, emitting chilling hiss!
Lightning surged like a celestial river, carrying the majestic power to judge all things, illuminating the entire Dragon Throat Gorge battlefield in a bluish-gold hue!
Then the sky full of tribulation clouds condensed into a giant abyss maw, emitting a deafening roar that shook the heavens and the earth!
hold head high-!
It is the roar of a dragon, the thunder, and the fury of heaven and earth!
A mental wave like a tsunami emanated from the giant maw, and the bodies of the 150 Soul Saints of the Douling Empire were directly twisted and deformed under the terrifying sound waves before exploding!
Puff puff puff!
A series of rapid, chilling explosions echoed through the sky.
The figures of 150 Soul Saints were completely transformed into a sky full of scattered blood mist amidst this earth-shattering sound wave!
The blood mist drifted down from the sky, as if a scarlet rain had fallen.
Huo Yuhao swooped down, and the shared perspective of his mental detection once again appeared before the people of the Heavenly Soul Empire.
Tianmeng remained floating behind the river, maintaining a resonance with the heartstrings so that all instructions could be transmitted immediately.
At this moment, at the bottom of Longhou Gorge, the floodwaters are still surging, having destroyed most of the defensive fortifications.
A large number of the Douling garrison was submerged, and the remaining troops struggled in the flood and landslides, greatly reducing the threat.
Meanwhile, on the cliff top, a number of elite troops, relying on thunderous assaults and under the cover of the Soul Master Corps, whose weapons are the most advanced in the Heavenly Soul Empire, the Lotus of Purification, have successfully controlled some key high points and are currently clearing out the stubbornly resisting garrison nodes.
The Eastern Army's artillery fire had gradually subsided, but some firepower was still suppressing the small groups of Douling defenders who had not been affected by the flood or had managed to escape to higher ground.
Huo Yuhao had already seen that the tributary of the Raging River, which had been forcibly diverted, was rushing toward the entrance of the Fifth Gate of Hell with overwhelming force.
Li Kongming's voice echoed in the hearts of the Eastern Army: "Dragon's Throat Gorge has been breached! The main force of the Eastern Army is advancing at full speed along the slope to eliminate the remaining enemy and take control of the Dragon's Throat River!"
"The Holy Dragon Brigade reinforced the cliff faces on both sides to ensure the safety of the slope," Huo Yuhao said.
"Soul Saint level members, follow me straight to the Gate of Hell! Our objective is to seize the pass!"
Once the order was given, the entire Heavenly Soul Eastern Army instantly sprang into action, operating at high speed like a precision machine.
The long-suppressed fighting spirit erupted completely, and the battle cries shook the heavens and the earth.
Under the cover of the Soul Master Corps, the main force of the Eastern Army, like a steel torrent, surged towards the top of the cliff along the sloping passageway created by Huo Yuhao and the Holy Dragon Brigade.
Longhou Gorge no longer exists; only a rushing river flows through the former gorge.
The Soul Masters of the Holy Dragon Brigade began reinforcing the cliff walls on both sides and clearing away fallen rocks to ensure the stability of this lifeline.
Meanwhile, the water-attribute soul masters began to guide and divert some of the floodwaters, mitigating the impact and helping to stabilize the battlefield environment.
As for those Soul Saint realm experts, Huo Yuhao had them leap onto his back, then transformed into a streak of azure-gold light, rushing towards the direction of the Ghost Gate.
They were the sharpest spearheads in the entire battle.
Huo Yuhao must deliver a fatal blow to the Ghost Gate Guards when the chaos caused by the flood reaches its peak!
Taking advantage of this surging water, it is the perfect opportunity to seize the Ghost Gate!
Before the gates of hell, turbulent waves surged to the heavens!
