Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 468: Sharp Knife Squad
As expected of the elite troops of the Sun-Moon Empire, they remained calm in the face of danger and instantly set up defenses to stop Ji Lin. It seems that although there are not many soul guides and troops left in the Mingdou Mountains by the Sun-Moon Empire this time, they are all elite troops, using quality to solve the problem of quantity.

The soul engineer who was defending was in a state of tension. His comrades were also approaching him rapidly. In three seconds at most, as long as he could withstand Ji Lin's attack, his comrades would arrive.

Three seconds! Just three seconds!
This level 6 soul master was very confident in himself. Judging from the fluctuations in soul power, the opponent was only a soul saint. Although he was no match for him, he could not be defeated in one second if he defended with all his strength! This was his ten thousand year defense soul skill.

His judgment was actually very accurate. It was indeed impossible for an ordinary Soul Sage to kill him in one blow, but was Ji Lin an ordinary Soul Sage?
In front of him, a red sword light flashed, cutting through the void, and then a red light and shadow flew past him quickly.

He was still trying hard to dance the two swords in his hands, but suddenly, he felt a little cold, and everything seemed to have become different. The previous smooth movements seemed to have encountered an obstacle, and the feeling of everything that was originally under control seemed to have lost control.

This is……!?

He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt his eyes go dark, and his body fell uncontrollably from the air. It was so dark! Why couldn't he see anything...?
Ji Lin killed his opponent with one sword, and his figure was as fast as lightning. He disappeared from the spot in an instant. The storm formed by the terrifying soul-guided rays and artillery shells instantly erupted at the place where Ji Lin stayed for a moment. A violent explosion sounded, and earth and rocks flew, and smoke and dust rose. However, Ji Lin's figure had already left the spot, and the explosion did not hurt him at all.

"Xiao Si!"

Several soul masters who rushed over looked at the corpses falling from the sky with red eyes. Those were the corpses of their comrades. In just a moment, Ji Lin killed the sixth-level soul master. The soul guide shield, the sword light, and the ten thousand year defense soul skills were all as fragile as paper in front of Ji Lin's Heavenly Fire Judgment. Ji Lin tore the defense apart with one sword.

"He's there!" Relying on the wave detection soul guide, the remaining four soul guides quickly found Ji Lin's location, but Ji Lin's movement speed was too fast. Ji Lin, who controlled the flame burst to speed up, was so fast that they could not react.

Amidst the flashing red light, Ji Lin had already rushed towards another Soul Emperor before the four opponents surrounded him. Two Soul Saints and two Soul Emperors were the remaining four opponents.

As Ji Lin rushed forward, he turned his head and looked at a seventh-level soul engineer who was carrying a piercing cannon.

The next moment, a dazzling red flame burst out from the side of the seventh-level soul engineer.

"Boom!" Amid the loud explosion, the other three were shocked to see that the seven-ringed Soul Saint was blown to pieces, the piercing cannon was not fired at all, and everything was vaporized by the high temperature of the flames.

As early as when he was moving, Ji Lin used his second soul skill, fire element manipulation, and with the help of mental power, he left a flame mark in the air. Once the enemy approached, it would explode directly. The high temperature of the extreme fire ensured the lethality of the flame mark explosion.

If it was a flame of normal temperature, even if it exploded at close range, it would not be possible to directly kill a seventh-level soul engineer, but Ji Lin's flame was different. It had an extremely high temperature and a destructive force that could annihilate everything, making the alternative use of the second soul skill extremely destructive.

This is something that only Ji Lin can do. Even Ma Xiaotao, who also possesses the ultimate fire, cannot do it, because Ma Xiaotao does not have the soul skill to manipulate the fire element. She cannot leave a flame mark in the void, nor can she use her powerful mental power to hide the soul power fluctuations of the flame mark. At the same time, the temperature of her flame cannot reach Ji Lin's level, and she does not have the power of destruction.

So this is a unique skill that only Ji Lin can use, and it is impossible to teach it to others.

The sudden change shocked the other three people, and at this time, Ji Lin had already arrived in front of his original target.

With the help of the speed of the flame explosion, Ji Lin swung the Heavenly Fire Holy Judge in his hand horizontally. The sword flashed and the head fell to the ground.

Three of the five men were killed in just a few blinks of an eye. The other two soul masters were not fools and did not need to communicate with each other. They turned around and ran away in tacit understanding.

Although they were soldiers, they were not fools. They killed their three comrades in the instant they met. Staying would be suicide, so it would be better to stay useful and find an opportunity to avenge their comrades.

Ji Lin did not chase them, not because he let the two go on purpose, but because he saw ten dark blue shadows coming towards him at an astonishing speed. From the soul power fluctuations they emitted, he could feel that the combat effectiveness of the ten people who came later was much stronger than the previous five.

Ji Lin was not unfamiliar with the ten people who came after him. He had dealt with them several times. They were the members of the Evil King Soul Instructor Corps, who were the best at speed among the Beast King-level Soul Instructors who were the protectors of the Sun and Moon Empire.

They are at least Soul Saints, nine Soul Saints and one Soul Douluo. With the help of mental detection, Ji Lin instantly judged the opponent's strength.

This kind of strength seems to be the elite of the Evil King's Soul Guide Corps. Although Ji Lin is confident that he can defeat his opponent, it is also a bit troublesome. The most terrifying thing about the Sun-Moon Empire's Soul Guide Corps is the coordination between their soul guides. Once they cooperate, they can exert geometric multiples of combat effectiveness. These ten people combined are probably not inferior to a Titled Douluo. It is not easy for Ji Lin to resolve the battle in a short time. Don't forget, this is near the base camp of the Sun-Moon Empire. The support of the Sun-Moon Empire is very fast, although most of the Sun-Moon Empire's military forces and strong men are now dragged on the front battlefield.

But there must be some strong men left behind, after all, the Sun-Moon Empire was also afraid that the Star Luo Empire would send a small team of elites to attack the base camp from the side. And this kind of special operation using elite teams to execute the decapitation plan is what soul masters are best at, and it is also what soul instructors are not good at, they are good at large-scale frontal combat.

The ten soul mentors from the Evil King's Soul Mentor Corps arrived very quickly. They were the spearhead squad ordered by the Mad Bull Douluo Wang Yiheng to fight. There were only five such squads in the Evil King's Soul Mentor Corps. They were the core combat force and were directly commanded by Wang Yiheng. They were the strongest among the strong!
The two soul guides who escaped soon met up with these ten people, and quickly released their wave detection soul guides to chase after Ji Lin.

They showed strong coordination ability right from the start.

The ten members of the spearhead team quickly dispersed, farther apart than the previous soul guides. The wave detection soul guides on them seemed to be more effective, and Ji Lin's figure was soon discovered by them.

"Up there."

Among the ten members of the spearhead team, two stopped, and each of them had a two-meter-long cannon with a diameter of one foot on their shoulders.

The huge cannon was aimed at Ji Lin in the air and fired quickly.

Two huge balls of silver light rose into the air and flew straight towards Ji Lin.

Level 7 concussion bomb, being hit by this thing is not fun. Ji Lin's defense is not yet to the level of ignoring the close-range explosion of the level 7 soul missile, and the biggest effect of this concussion bomb is control. It will be not fun if you are controlled.

The others were not idle either. They ran at full speed and surrounded Ji Lin.

Ji Lin waved his hand and threw out two sword energies. The two red sword lights left two scratches in the air. The two shock bombs that were flying towards him were hit by the sword energy in the air. The next moment, a violent explosion occurred, carrying countless silver lights that flew over and covered a large area.

The shock bomb that was detonated by Ji Lin's sword energy in advance not only failed to restrain Ji Lin, but also blocked the other members of the Evil King Soul Instructor Corps' spearhead team because of the premature explosion.

Even the elite team of the Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group did not dare to let themselves be affected by the explosion of the shockwave bomb. What if they were attacked by Ji Lin? They could only wait for a few seconds until the aftermath of the shockwave bomb dissipated before they dared to continue rushing forward.

Dozens of blue soul-guided rays flew straight towards Ji Lin and covered him. Ji Lin floated in the air, and pointed his left index finger forward. A white halo spread out and turned into extremely smooth ice mirrors in the air. What was even more bizarre was that each ice mirror just blocked a soul-guided ray.

There was no collision or explosion. All the soul guide rays were reflected back after being blocked by the ice mirror, and none of them could get close to Ji Lin.

Ji Lin, who possesses the holy mark skill of ice and snow control, has of course also learned Meng Hongchen's ice mirror reflection. In the face of this soul skill, most ray attacks cannot threaten Ji Lin.

In terms of control over ice and snow, Ji Lin is already vaguely surpassing Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor. After all, the holy mark skill of Ice and Snow Control is too buggy, and it is a dimensionality reduction attack for ice and snow soul masters.

Having integrated many ice-type holy marks, Ji Lin's control over ice and snow has reached a certain extreme.

Ji Lin’s strength was beyond the imagination of the Evil King Soul Guide Group’s soul guides, but their attack had just begun.

"Concentrate fire!" The captain of the spearhead squad shouted, and blue rays spurted out again, but this time, they did not shoot directly at Ji Lin, but all shot at a point in the air. The ten members of the spearhead squad had one mind, and after ten soul guide rays as thick as arms were concentrated at one point, they shot out another ray of light. The deep blue ray did not become thicker, but became much thinner, cutting through the sky and instantly reaching in front of Ji Lin.

Ji Lin chuckled, stretched out his left hand, and his palm turned completely ice blue. He pressed lightly, causing it to collide with the ray.

"Buzz!" A strange sound was heard in the sky, and then the deep blue ray dissipated.

The ten members of the spearhead team were all stunned. Their attack concentrated the soul rays of nine level seven soul masters and one level eight soul master. Even though the soul rays themselves were not strong, when ten people combined, this attack was definitely equivalent to a full-strength attack from a Soul Douluo-level strong man.
