When an Emperor-level being attempts to break through the barrage of fire and rush towards the weakened Master Jinghui in the rear, she can always promptly create a large area of extremely cold ice beneath their feet, greatly hindering their movement.
Her ice crystal shield has repeatedly blocked deadly energy shockwaves, protecting ordinary people.
The Shadow Squad went all out, each member displaying their unique abilities.
They left countless wounds on the massive bodies of the Emperor-level Devouring Beasts, weakening their defenses, interfering with their movements, and slowing down their regenerative abilities.
Multiple Space Blades!
Chen Yuan made a fist with both hands, and countless invisible spatial rifts instantly appeared around the Mountain-Shaking Emperor, cutting into its dark golden bone armor, producing a piercing friction sound and sparks flying everywhere.
The Mountain-Shaking Emperor roared, abandoning his attack on Erica. His enormous fist slammed into Chen Yuan like a meteorite, the force of the punch compressing the air and creating a visible shockwave.
Space teleportation!
Chen Yuan flashed and appeared behind the giant ape's head, using the molecular disintegration sword in his hand to stab at the gap in the bone armor at the back of its neck.
"clang!"
With a loud bang, the Splitting Sword successfully pierced through, but it was stopped by the even tougher inner bone layer after only half a meter of penetration.
The Emperor of Shaking Mountains was in pain and struck back with a palm, but Chen Yuan immediately flew backward.
The defense and vitality of the Emperor-level Devouring Beasts far exceeded expectations, especially the Mountain-Shaking Emperor. Chen Yuan's Molecular Disintegration Sword hit it several times but failed to kill it. Instead, it aroused its ferocity.
"We can't delay it any longer!"
A fierce glint flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes, and the nano-cores throughout his body began to operate rapidly, unleashing the maximum power of the electromagnetic gravity field.
An invisible supergravity was instantly applied to the Mountain-Shaking Emperor, causing his massive body to suddenly sink and his movements to freeze once again.
Chen Yuan pushed the power of space and shadow energy to their limits, merging himself with the Molecular Disintegration Sword, transforming into a dark red spiral that tore through space.
"Space Tear Slash!"
"puff……"
This sword strike finally broke through the limit.
A dark red spiral pierced through the chest of the Mountain-Shaking Emperor and exited through his back.
A huge cavity several meters in diameter appeared on its chest, and the core of the Spirit Seed inside was completely annihilated.
The Mountain-Shaking Emperor's ferocious movements came to an abrupt halt, his golden pupils lost their luster, and his massive body crashed to the ground.
With the most powerful Mountain-Shaking Emperor slain, the tide of battle began to turn.
Pressing his advantage, Chen Yuan compressed his remaining spatial power to the extreme and attached it to the sword blade, forming an invisible, sharp blade capable of cutting through space.
Chen Yuan let out a low roar, unleashing his full power and transforming into a true stream of light.
That's not simple flight; it's turning the electromagnetic gravitational field in the opposite direction to itself, creating a near-uncontrollable propulsion force, while simultaneously mobilizing shadow energy to envelop the entire body, reducing air resistance and boosting speed to an unbelievable level.
"Shadow Pierce!"
call out!
A piercing whistling sound, as if it could tear eardrums, rang out.
Chen Yuan's figure completely disappeared, replaced by a streak of dark red light that stretched across the sky, both intense and sharp.
Wherever the streak of light passed, the air was forcibly pushed aside, forming a brief vacuum channel, with a sonic boom cloud trailing behind it due to the excessive speed.
This streak of light shot straight toward the skeletal dragon at a speed beyond the limits of visual perception.
"Pfft!"
A soft sound, like a sharp blade cutting into rotten wood.
The dark red light pierced through the neck and body of the skeletal dragon without any obstruction, and then emerged from the other side.
At the junction of the hideous skull and body, there was a huge, smooth, mirror-like cut surface.
The destructive energy remaining from shadow energy and spatial forces is frantically eroding along the cut surface, preventing its regeneration.
The skeletal dragon's body stiffened, its shadowy breath spilling out uncontrollably, and the light in its eye sockets, ignited by the fire of its soul, rapidly dimmed.
"Boom!"
The headless dragon's skull slid off its neck and crashed heavily to the ground. The headless dragon's torso swayed a few times before collapsing and scattering into countless inactive, enormous bones.
With one burst of energy, we'll conquer the remaining Emperor-level enemies!
Chen Yuan did not stop for a moment, nor did he even turn around to confirm the results of the battle.
He could feel the energy in his body being consumed rapidly, his muscles were tearing with pain, and the alarm for overload of the nanocore was ringing sharply in his mind.
But he couldn't stop; his momentum had already been built, and he had to press on until the battle was over.
The next second, the light rose again!
This time, the target is the corrupted octopus king whose tentacles have been temporarily frozen by Ran Bing and whose core spiritual seed has been exposed.
The Corrupted Octopus King sensed a deadly threat. Its enormous heart, the Spirit Seed, throbbed wildly, unleashing a burst of rich life energy. It forcefully shattered the ice crystal chains binding its tentacles, while simultaneously wielding its other tentacles like giant fleshy whips, striking the incoming stream of light with immense force.
"Don't even think about it!" Ran Bing gritted her teeth, her face pale from the massive energy depletion, but she concentrated all the power of the Eternal Ice Coffin into one point and unleashed it.
"Absolute zero!"
A cold, icy blue beam of light shot from her palm, striking the corrupted octopus king's core spirit seed.
In an instant, a layer of absolute zero ice wall, several meters thick and crystal clear like a diamond, appeared out of thin air.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The corrupted octopus king's tentacles lashed against the ice wall. Although the ice wall only briefly hindered it for a moment, it was enough.
The dark red light that Chen Yuan transformed into drew a strange zigzag line in the air, and in the instant when the ice wall blocked the view, it directly pierced through the huge, pulsating spiritual seed of the corrupted octopus king from the side.
"puff!"
Like a water-filled balloon being punctured, the core of the Spirit Seed exploded instantly, and viscous liquid mixed with broken tissue scattered everywhere.
All of the Corrupted Octopus King's tentacles stiffened instantly, then drooped limply. Its massive, fleshy body lost its luster at a visible speed, turning gray and withered.
With a flash of light, Chen Yuan charged toward a king-level creature that resembled a giant centipede, its carapace gleaming with a metallic sheen.
The speed was so fast that the opponent didn't even have time to coil up their body to defend.
The light entered directly from its head, traveled down its spine, and exited from its tail.
When Chen Yuan's figure appeared behind the Centipede Emperor, the giant beast's carapace on its back burst open section by section, as if it had been cleaved open from head to tail by an invisible giant blade.
Other Emperor-level beings were also killed by the rapid light. When Chen Yuan used Shadow Pierce for the last time, piercing the Molecular Disintegration Sword into the eye socket of the last Emperor-level Devouring Beast, which resembled a mammoth and was covered with countless bone spurs, and instantly annihilated its brain tissue along with the miniature spiritual seed, the whole world seemed to suddenly fall silent.
Chen Yuan staggered off its head, kneeling on one knee, supporting himself with the Molecular Disintegration Sword, panting heavily.
His body was badly injured in many places, revealing skin torn by energy burns and physical impacts. The dark red energy patterns were dull and lifeless, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
The feeling of weakness from overexertion washed over his entire body like a tidal wave. Although the core battle suit's energy was not exhausted, Chen Yuan's abilities and stamina were depleted, and he could only continue fighting by relying on the system's management.
“Amitabha… Benefactor Chen Yuan, I was narrow-minded before.”
He bowed deeply to Chen Yuan and the Shadow Squad behind him:
"Hidden Mountain Pure Land... We wish to bring our disciples and believers, totaling more than 7,300 people, to submit to you. We hope that you will protect us."
With so many emperor-level beings appearing, Jinghui realized that Hidden Mountain Pure Land was no longer safe. Just then, Chen Yuan displayed his powerful strength, so she decisively attached herself to them.
Despite the previous conflict, Chen Yuan and his group did not kill indiscriminately, which proves that they have their own principles in doing things.
Thus, the last human force on Earth, Hidden Mountain Pure Land, officially merged into the alliance led by Chen Yuan.
Humanity's power, under the shadow of the apocalypse, has been integrated in an unprecedented way.
Chapter 267 Planetary Spaceship
Mountain-Shaking Emperor, Skeleton Dragon, Corrupted Octopus King...
The corpses of Emperor-level Devouring Beasts, each as large as a small mountain, lay scattered around the outskirts of Hidden Mountain Pure Land, the air thick with the stench of blood.
However, the crisis has not been resolved.
In the distance, the surging waves of snake-dogs, earth-roaring beasts, and thorny eels still lingered and roared. They were temporarily intimidated by the death of the emperor-level creatures, but driven by the scarlet hormones and their thirst for life essence, they did not retreat.
Although the encirclement formed by the beast tide has weakened considerably, it still exists and is tentatively closing in again, preparing to launch the next wave of attacks.
Suddenly, the system interface in Chen Yuan's mind started to show his survival points jumping wildly due to his successful integration of the last important human force on Earth and his achievement of killing more than a dozen emperor-level beasts. The points eventually settled at an astronomical number of 70853600.
With over 70 million survival points, half of which were previously accumulated, this is a crucial resource capable of altering the strategic landscape.
The current predicament needs to be broken.
Leading over 7,000 people, along with some civilians who were almost entirely defenseless, through the area threatened by the beast tide and back to the Lighthouse was an almost impossible task.
Existing aircraft have limited carrying capacity and lack sufficient protection.
"We have to rely on the system now."
Chen Yuan's mind raced, and his consciousness sank into the system store.
A dazzling array of high-tech weapons, aircraft carrier fleets, and blueprints for faster-than-light engines flashed by, until his gaze finally settled on a colossal object.
Hope: A planetary-level space battleship.
The ship is about five kilometers long, comparable to a small, mobile city.
The armor is made of multi-layered composite vibranium-nano alloy and is equipped with a large energy shield activator.
Core weapons:
Genesis Main Gun (bow): Fires a high-density plasma torrent, with a single shot having the power equivalent to a strategic nuclear weapon with a yield of hundreds of millions of tons of TNT, capable of causing devastating damage to continental plate-sized targets.
The "Meteor Shower" vertical missile launch array can launch more than 300 missiles of various types simultaneously, including tactical nuclear warheads, bunker busters, and EMP missiles.
"Spear of Judgment" large electromagnetic railgun array (both sides): fires super-heavy tungsten alloy projectiles or special warheads for precision attack and long-range fire coverage.
Close-in defense laser matrix system: Composed of thousands of independent laser emitters, it can effectively intercept missiles, fighter jets, and small to medium-sized swarms of Devouring Beasts.
[Additional Configuration]:
Built-in ecological cycle system: can accommodate 3 ordinary residents for long-term living.
Large hangar and production line: capable of housing, maintaining and producing various types of mechs and aircraft.
The standard configuration includes six Guardian-class corvettes: each approximately 150 meters long, capable of independent combat, used for escort, reconnaissance, and tactical support.
