Before Jialing Pass, there was an equally towering, entirely black, thick, and majestic city wall facing it from a distance. This was what Yan Jin had forged overnight with her abilities more than two years ago.
That night, flames soared into the sky, and rolling lava flowed continuously, turning the entire sky red.
By the next day, when the lava cooled, this city wall, almost the same height as Jialing Pass, was revealed before everyone's eyes… causing countless soldiers to shout of a miracle.
Yan Jin stood on the watchtower she had solidified and cast with lava, gazing into the distance, her dark red eyes thoughtful.
Recently, she had been intermittently hearing a certain call again, and that call was becoming increasingly strong.
It seemed that something was threatening the owner of the call, causing it to become urgent.
"Gods do not appear alone. According to the records I have, gods on the Douluo Continent appear in pairs, and they are often hostile to each other, so there is no situation where one family dominates."
A clear voice came from behind. The speaker was a handsome young man with sea-blue hair and azure eyes.
"Didn't you go back to the Tudor Empire? Why are you here again?" Yan Jin said without turning her head.
"I chatted with Mr. Amon for a while and found that the country doesn't actually need me at all. Mr. Amon knows everything, so I came to the front line again… Anyway, it doesn't take much time to make a trip." Lei Yin responded with a smile.
After a pause, Lei Yin asked again, "Sister, are you really not going to get that thing back?"
Yan Jin shook her head: "Some things are not better the sooner they are done. You have to choose the right time. Now is not the time yet."
"Report, the Spirit Empire's army is showing signs of activity. It seems they want to launch a counterattack." An officer in dark armor walked up.
When he saw Lei Yin beside Yan Jin, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he quickly gave a military salute, "Lord Lei Yin."
Lei Yin nodded, closed his eyes, and activated the skill of the head spirit bone obtained from the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler—Mind Web.
At this moment, all the currents within dozens of kilometers around him were completely and clearly presented in his mind. He screened them and selected those that matched the characteristics of human bioelectricity.
Then he discovered that the armies in Jialing Pass were gathering, seemingly wanting to fight to the death.
"They have gathered their troops at the main entrance. Look, they are already coming out." Lei Yin pointed to the city gate in front.
Yan Jin's eyes darkened: "What are they up to?"
"Who knows." Lei Yin shrugged, "Anyway, just fight… In any case, according to Mr. Amon's meaning, he doesn't really care about the outcome of the battlefield here anymore. He is no longer a 'conqueror'."
"You command, I'll take care of Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu." Yan Jin said casually.
At this time, the Spirit Empire's titled Douluos had also stood on the city wall with great tacit understanding, staring at Yan Jin, the connected aura faintly locking onto her.
Yan Jin squeezed her fist, used "Soul Power Ejection" to give herself extremely high speed, shot into the high sky, and then rushed towards the distant mountains.
Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu looked at each other, nodded, rose into the sky, and chased after her.
Azure Luan, Majestic Lion, Golden Crocodile, three enshrined with domain skills, and "Sword Douluo" Chen Xin followed closely behind.
In the vast Spirit Empire, only a few people were qualified to face Yan Jin. The rest of the titled Douluos could not even survive in the "Ice and Fire Yin Yang Domain". No matter how many came, it would be useless.
Lei Yin looked at them leaving, a look of contemplation on his face.
From some of the Spirit Empire's actions, he discovered that the other party seemed to have a certain degree of understanding with Amon.
Both sides intentionally controlled the intensity of the war within a certain range, thereby prolonging the time the war could last.
Even the soul masters sent by the Spirit Empire to the hinterland of the Tudor Empire to carry out behind-enemy operations never targeted things like grain warehouses that would make it impossible for the people to survive.
Neither the Spirit Empire's army nor the Tudor Empire's army had ever taken scorched-earth tactics and would not destroy crops.
When strategically retreating from a city, they would not burn the grain even if they left it to the enemy.
The three years of war made the generals in both armies who really understood military affairs and had insight very confused. They often cursed their own commanders as idiots in private.
Laymen give blind commands!
What made them even more crazy was that the city lords at the border between the two countries were openly trading grain, weapons, and the like! And the empire didn't care!
Later, they had emptied their brains…
The only thing that could make these soldiers admire was probably Lei Yin's on-the-spot command ability.
Although it was a last-minute change of generals, the Tudor Empire did not appear to be in chaos at all.
Because Lei Yin's "Mind Web" ability could clearly perceive the dynamics of everyone on the battlefield, he could even use "Mind Web", through the mixed use of soul power and electromagnetism, to accurately transmit his voice to every soldier of his own army for extreme "micro-management".
Under Lei Yin's command, the armies of the Tudor Empire gathered in an orderly manner, lined up in formation on the open space, and confronted the armies of the Spirit Empire head-on.
...
On the city wall of Jialing Pass, Amon's figure slowly emerged.
He sat on the crenel, his legs hanging down casually, looking at the departing titled Douluos and the armies below preparing to fight, his eyes deep.
He pinched his monocle and muttered:
"What's Bibi Dong doing? Why are all the armies in various places suddenly counterattacking at all costs and turning their butcher knives on civilians."
Then, he used the ability of "Dream Stealer" to read Bibi Dong's mind.
Because his eighth Soul Ring absorbed the Soul Ring of Skydream Ice Silkworm, and he was also a level 99 Limit Douluo at this time, his mental power was stronger than the target.
Bibi Dong was unprepared, and he easily read Bibi Dong's thoughts and understood the reason for Bibi Dong's actions.
"So that's how it is. She took the fluctuations emitted by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger breaking through a million years as the fluctuations of me stepping into the realm of God… She thought I would break the previous tacit understanding and end the war quickly. So she wanted to do something big at the end and reap another wave of faith."
Amon thought for a while, then curled the corners of his mouth and outlined a smile: "Isn't it just faith? I will cooperate."
He issued instructions to the avatars who served as mid-level and grass-roots commanders in the various armies.
He ordered the Amon officers of the Tudor Empire to reduce their resistance, making the Spirit Empire's counterattack easier.
He ordered the Amon officers in the Spirit Empire's army to allow the army to carry out looting and other behaviors when they broke through the city, bringing more disasters and more pain to the people.
The order to counterattack the Tudor Empire was issued by Bibi Dong, and the Amons would also actively promote it for her, guiding the people to point their negative emotions, resentment, hatred, etc. at Bibi Dong, helping her to go further on the road to becoming a god.
He also ordered the Amon avatars located in the Tudor Empire to provide as much convenience as possible to the soul masters who were carrying out destructive activities in the Tudor Empire.
With these three measures combined, this would not only speed up Bibi Dong's collection of faith, but also put the Tudor Empire in a crisis of destruction, allowing his image as a "tyrant" and "destroyer of the country" to be recognized by more people and gain more negative faith.
Upon receiving the orders from the main body, the avatars showed interested smiles, and they began to exchange discussions through the connection of fate.
One Amon said: "Um… I happen to have a soul master team here. They seem to want to assassinate me, the city lord, and then create panic… But they are a bit weak and can't even get past the city guard… I'll send the city guard out to 'suppress bandits' later."
"I happen to be in that soul master team you mentioned. I'll kill you then. Don't resist!" Another Amon responded with a smile.
"You, don't forget to promote that this is an order issued by Lord Bibi Dong." An Amon reminded.
"That's not a problem, leave it to me. I'll spread rumors, no, facts." An unkempt, street-roaming Amon said with a smile.
"By the way, can we provide faith for Bibi Dong?" An Amon suddenly asked.
This question stunned the rest of the Amons, and then they showed interested smiles: "Want to try?"
"But it's difficult for us to believe in a person."
"That's you, not me… I always have respect for gods in my heart. I'm very devout."
When the Amons wanted to force and hypnotically make themselves believe in Bibi Dong, the main body stopped this idiotic behavior.
"The spirit of the avatar will affect the main body. If too many Amons believe in Bibi Dong, causing the 'Bibi Dong as faith' decision to be voted in the entire Amon referendum, then I will inevitably begin to respect, admire, and adore Bibi Dong." The main body Amon said.
"Oh, that's so serious."
"Then forget it."
Most of the Amons gave up this idea, but some Amons were still shouting, "Long live the Queen", "I love Bibi Dong", "Three views should follow the five features", "Take Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue"…
"Let's vote, it's time to choose a heroine… I vote for Si Si." A fun-loving Amon suggested.
"Who is Si Si?"
"Your ideas are not bold enough. How about I parasitize Bibi Dong and play with you?"
"I vote for Amon." An Amon strongly demanded.
"I also vote for Amon."
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
...
The Amon main body disconnected the connection of fate, preventing himself from hearing the voices of the avatars and shielding himself from mental corruption.
He rubbed his eyebrows, looking slightly tired.
Each time he made mental contact with that huge group of avatars, it was a burden for him.
Because he had expanded the size of "Amon" too much, it was a difficult and complicated task to carry out macro-control and keep the "Will of the Entire Amon" from deviating too much from the "Will of the Main Body". He had to spend a lot of time on this every day.
"Tsk, the replacement of avatars will be a bit fast in the future… In order to control the deviation value, it seems I have to work overtime…"
