Chapter 436: Chapter 299: Perish Together?_2
“`
Zhao Xuanjing’s face showed astonishnt as he finished reading.
“Ancestor, we’re out of ti! Escaping is the worst choice imaginable; the alliance will surely punish us severely. In my opinion, the alliance must have a contingency plan. It would be strategic for our clan to follow their commands!”
“Good point!” Zhao Xuanjing’s eyes brightened imdiately as he ordered loudly, “Hear my command, everyone–stimulate the Golden Wall Defensive Array with all your might, and then take shelter in the safest secret chamber on the lowest level as quickly as possible.”
At the ancestor’s command, the crowd answered in a thunderous chorus!
In the blink of an eye, a three-hundred-zhang stretch of the city wall suddenly revealed a thick, sturdy barrier of golden light.
Almost at the sa ti, nurous sections of the Second Ring Great Wall, spanning nearly a thousand miles, swiftly raised layers of golden barriers.
The many golden light screens joined together, looking from the sky above like a golden dragon stretching for thousands of miles upon the land.
This dragon encircled the entire battlefield in its midst, appearing like a colossal golden ring of light that imprisoned everything within it.
As people rapidly initiated the great array, Zhao Sheng led Zhao Xuanjing to one side and quickly took out a moon-white shell, giving off a faint white light, from his bosom.
He also spewed out a treasure bead the size of a dragon’s eye.
Zhao Xuanjing’s gaze sharpened, and his eyes shone with wonder, clearly recognizing the extraordinary nature of the treasure at a glance.
Because of the urgency, Zhao Sheng got straight to the point and said, “This is a Sea Shell with a hundred zhang of space inside that can hold living things. Have the clan mbers hide inside later. And this treasure, Ancestor, will be under your care!”
Zhao Xuanjing was both shocked and delighted upon hearing this. Such spatial treasures were rare even for a Divinity Transformation True Monarch to possess, and he never expected that his own descendant would have such good fortune.
Zhao Xuanjing took the Sea Shell and the treasure bead, and imdiately asked, “Qingyang, what about you?”
Both n were of clear and rational minds. Although Zhao Sheng did not explicitly state his intentions, Zhao Xuanjing understood them as soon as he heard.
Who would have a higher survival rate on the battlefield, a Nascent Soul Ancestor or a Golden Core Master? The answer was self-evident!
Especially since Zhao Xuanjing was a Nascent Soul adept at Earth Escape Divine Ability.
Zhao Sheng glanced outward, smiled confidently, and said, “Ancestor, don’t you know how strong my survival skills are? I should stay outside. It’s the perfect opportunity to observe the situation and make a move when the ti is right!”
“Qingyang, that’s far too risky! You’re snatching chestnuts from the fire! Absolutely not!”
Zhao Xuanjing furrowed his brow upon hearing this, imdiately grasping the many calculations hidden in his grandson’s heart.
“Ancestor, fortune favors the bold since ancient tis! Besides, I am quite confident in preserving my life,” Zhao Sheng declared assuredly.
Zhao Xuanjing was about to dissuade him further when a Foundation Establishnt Clan mber hurried over, reporting that everything was in place.
Seeing Zhao Sheng’s resolute face, Zhao Xuanjing knew well that his grandson couldn’t be swayed and refrained from further argunt, instead instructing him to be very careful and to prioritize his safety.
Zhao Sheng nodded with a smile.
At this, Zhao Xuanjing sighed deeply and turned to leave.
Monts later, Zhao Sheng was the only one left on the city wall.
Looking towards the Abyss Battlefield a hundred miles away, he suddenly let out a long sigh, his figure gradually disappearing on the spot and leaving no trace.
At that ti, groups of disheveled cultivators from the native world were fleeing in a panic. Nurous Cloud Boat Spaceships also retreated in defeat, either crashing down or escaping with heavy damage.
A large number of Otherworld fanatics, under the cover of many divine temples, hurled one golden spear after another and unleashed a variety of powerful Divine Powers and Treasure Techniques, hunting down the scattering, fleeing cultivators.
Simultaneously, the Flying Immortal City, as if driven to madness, bore the brunt of the imnse attack from the sky, recklessly surging upward at all costs, seemingly determined to perish together with the enemy.
That super floating fortress also seed startled and imdiately shifted sideways at maximum speed, proactively clearing a path.
As the two super war fortresses passed by each other, Flying Immortal City endured the largest wave of attacks from the opponent, with eighty percent of the buildings inside destroyed and the whole city engulfed in a vast sea of fire, with thick smoke billowing.
Yet, despite this, Flying Immortal City continued to dash desperately into the high heavens, gaining speed as if determined to escape at all costs.
The sight caused the morale of the native world defenders to plumt, and the last group of cultivators still resisting began to flee outwards in desperation.
The Netherworld Ghost Realm’s side erupted in loud cheers, celebrating their victory.
…
Boom!
Countless Golden Spear Spirit Spears struck the barrier, causing ripples to surge, and the city walls trembled slightly.
The first of the Otherworld fanatics to reach the Second Ring Great Wall desperately attacked the Defense Array.
“`
Just then, Zhao Sheng, who was concealing his form, suddenly seed to sense sothing and abruptly looked up at the night sky, his face revealing an expression of shock.
At that mont, the pitch-black curtain of night was torn apart, and a teor as large as a fist suddenly streaked across the darkness, dragging a long tail of flas as it plumted towards the earth at an extraordinarily fast speed.
As it broke through the lower layer of the Heavenly Gang Atmosphere, it instantly shattered into fragnts, turning into a group of seven or eight star teors that covered the three-hundred-mile battlefield within the Second Ring Great Wall.
“Ah ah!”
In an instant, countless people on the battlefield were dumbstruck, and many let out cries of despair.
However, fate does not shift according to the will of man!
The very next mont, the star teors continued to fall to the earth one after another.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
In that instant, one sun after another rose between heaven and earth, as if ten thousand suns were exploding at the sa ti, sweeping everything with an unimaginably blinding brightness!
In an instant, the heavens and earth wailed and trembled, the vast atmosphere vibrated and boiled, and the ground seed to wrinkle and crush like putty, creating waves of unprecedentedly strong shockwaves that swept in all directions, lifting layers of the earth and carrying with them billions of tons of soil, “subrging” the world.
At that mont, it felt as though the apocalypse had arrived!
Facing such a natural disaster, humanity was utterly insignificant!
Even a Divinity Transformation True Monarch could only protect himself and would struggle to withstand its sharp edge.
The terror of the natural world was such that human strength could not co close.
Crack crack!
The Golden Wall shuddered violently, the thousand-mile-long wall moving unpredictably upon the earth like a toy, with countless terrifying cracks appearing on the wall’s surface in the blink of an eye, densely covering both the inside and outside of the wall.
Boom!
The Golden Wall Formation swiftly collapsed, and segnts of the imnsely strong walls tumbled down, then were buried by massive amounts of soil.
Thud thud thud!
Zhao Sheng, with half of his body already sunken into the wall, continuously threw down nurous True Talismans with both hands. The layers of defense on his body were rapidly breaking, but imdiately more defensive barriers of various kinds would appear.
At this mont, the section of wall beneath his feet was also on the brink of collapse, but as a faint yellow light spread out from within the wall, it suddenly beca much more stable.
In just two breaths, a great amount of dirt and stones piled up beneath the walls, quickly reaching a height of fifty to sixty feet.
As a result, the wall was buffered and finally stopped teetering on the edge.
Looking around, the sky was filled with dust and dirt, the world was incredibly dim. Wave after wave of high-temperature heatwaves relentlessly rolled in, the air exceptionally arid and hot, as though one were in the midst of a sea of fire.
At this ti, the surrounding environnt was extrely chaotic, with countless unpredictable fluctuations arising between heaven and earth, severely interfering with Zhao Sheng’s senses.
His Divine Sense was unable to probe outside of his body, and he had to rely solely on his five senses to survey his surroundings.
However, through the Immortal Spirit Realm vision, Zhao Sheng could vaguely see through the layers of soil curtains, the ground torn asunder, countless divine temples collapsed into rubble, and innurable corpses and severed limbs exposed in the soil.
He also saw several teor craters overflowing with white-hot magma.
These craters were scattered across a radius of a few hundred miles, with the largest one located right where the Abyss Battlefield was.
“Harsh! This is too harsh!” Zhao Sheng was inwardly shaken and couldn’t help but reassess the moral depths of those in power in this realm.
The Sect Alliance’s strategy of raining teors from the sky was a tactic akin to mutual destruction!
“Ksitigarbha’s Abyss, Vast Star Picking!”
It wasn’t until then that Zhao Sheng finally ca to a realization; he understood why the Vast Sect had not shown themselves from the beginning to the end—they had been secretly preparing this big move.
After a brief buffering, the largest few shockwaves had passed, and the world was no longer as violent as before.
Now, Zhao Sheng’s body was enveloped in a halo of light, and he slowly rose from the ground, his eyes focused on the several teor craters tens to hundreds of miles away.
His gaze finally settled on the largest of the teor craters.
