134: Chapter 134 Alien Attack, Divine Kingdom Shakes

As the Time Authority was withdrawn, the sun and moon of the Divine Kingdom returned to their original trajectories. The Twelve Study Cities rang their bells in succession, and officials everywhere began checking the ledgers left behind by a century of evolution.

The fifty thousand Immortal Martial Legion concluded their full-System drill. The Heavy Armor Army returned to the Martial Dao Holy City, the Artillery Battalion sealed up their shells, and the Medical Cultivator Camp sent the last batch of wounded personnel out of the barracks.

Wang Shan stepped out of the Shura Field with the crimson flame saber resting on his shoulder. Five thousand new recruits followed behind him, their dark red armor plates covered in mud and dried bloodstains.

Wang Shan patted the mud off his vambrace: "Today's training was barely usable. For dinner, add half a catty of Grade B Spirit Beast meat for everyone. Tomorrow, we continue entering the Shura Field; whoever dares to get weak in the knees, I will personally send him back."

Before the new recruits had time to cheer, a dull vibration came from the border of the Divine Kingdom. The Soul Power of the Northern Nether Earth surged accordingly, and several Soul-Nurturing Platforms simultaneously extinguished.

Large areas of red patterns lit up on the Ancestral Court's main Formation. Within the eighteen-thousand-square-kilometer territory, thousands of spirit-detecting Formation Plates turned towards the north in unison, locking the anomalous location at the edge of the Nether Earth.

Wang Pingan stood in the vault of heaven, his Divine Thought following the ley lines across the northern mountains. A coordinate chain extending from the depths of the Void Realm was forcibly connecting to the barrier of the Divine Kingdom.

This coordinate chain had not passed through the Xinghe University teleportation System. It was wrapped in Void Realm turbulence, and along the way, there still remained gray-green traces left by the erosion of alien Divine Power.

When he concluded the Xiuluo Fragment mission, the collapse of the third-order fragment caused a large-scale Void Realm tide, and the return coordinates of the Divine Kingdom left a brief trajectory in the turbulence.

The school's Formation had already erased the normal teleportation records, but that trajectory had been swept by the turbulence into the depths of the Void Realm, ultimately falling into the detection range of a wandering Divine Kingdom.

The other party pursued along the residual trajectory for ten days, taking advantage of the Divine Kingdom just finishing its century-long acceleration and the Heaven and Earth Law reconnecting to launch a forced docking.

This type of wandering Void Realm deity had no fixed territory, relying on plundering weak divine kingdoms to survive. Once resources were insufficient, the entire Divine Kingdom would head toward decline.

Wang Pingan's Divine Thought swept across the coordinate chain. The other party's divine kingdom had an area of about two hundred and fifty thousand square kilometers, and its power level remained within the range of a First-Order Deity.

At the other end of the coordinate chain, a large expanse of gray-green ocean covered the earth. Hundreds of black stone fortresses were built in the sea, and hundreds of thousands of scale demons were gathering.

A scale demon deity draped in bone armor stood in the center of the ocean altar, its four arms holding a battle spear, a bone staff, and two detection Formation Plates respectively.

Named Carlo, it had left the control area of the scale demon race for more than seventy years. The resources of its divine kingdom had been mostly consumed in successive battles, and the fish schools in the sea were also on the verge of exhaustion.

Three years ago, Carlo forcibly attacked a machine race divine kingdom. Although it seized some metal ore veins, its subordinate legion suffered losses of over a hundred thousand, and even seven of its main giant beasts died.

It did not dare to return to the scale demon race territory, because the clan similarly practiced the Law of annexation. A deity that lost its legion returning would only become nourishment for other compatriots' expansion.

The coordinate trajectory left by Wang Pingan had become its chance to survive. As long as it swallowed a newly expanded Human Race divine kingdom, it would be able to make up for the losses of land and population.

Carlo inserted the bone staff into the altar, and the detection Formation Plate shot out a gray-green column of light, falling across the coordinate chain towards Wang Pingan's divine kingdom barrier.

The detection results were quickly transmitted back: a First-Order Deity aura, divine fire fluctuations remaining in the first-order range, and the ley lines of the divine kingdom still had splicing marks after expansion.

Wang Pingan had just concluded the century-long acceleration, and the eighteen-thousand-square-kilometer ley lines were still absorbing and accumulating. The leaked power was also suppressed inside the divine core by the Time Law.

Staring at the Formation Plate, Carlo could only detect a first-order aura. The divine core barrier blocked deeper investigation, and the foundation of the fifty thousand Heavy Armor Army and fifteen million subjects was completely concealed.

It spread its four arms, squeezing a harsh laugh from its throat, and tens of thousands of scale demons in the sea followed by striking their bone forks.

"A Human Race First-Order Deity who just completed expansion, whose ley lines haven't stabilized yet, actually dares to leave coordinate traces in the Void Realm turbulence!"

The scale demon commander behind Carlo crawled below the altar, its green scales pressing against the seawater, and the blood grooves on its trident still hanging with fragments of flesh left from the previous war.

"Great Lord of the Sea Abyss, Human Race deities are protected by the Federation. If this connects to the Human Race Star Domain, we will attract high-order deities."

Carlo raised its foot and kicked over the commander, its bone staff pressing down on its neck, its voice spreading along the sea surface toward the hundreds of fortresses.

"The coordinates come from the ownerless Void Realm; there are no Federation fleets here, nor high-order Divine Power markers. Swallow it, and we will immediately cut off the passage and leave."

It needed a victory to stabilize the divine kingdom, and even more so, human land to solve resource depletion. Any hesitation would cause its subordinate commanders to breed thoughts of replacing it.

The scale demon race revered plundering and the strong. Carlo had failed to bring back sufficient resources for three consecutive years, and several commanders had long begun fighting for control of the legion.

As long as it took down a Human Race divine kingdom, it would be able to feed the ocean with Origin, fill military rations with captured human subjects, and suppress internal strife once again.

Carlo withdrew its bone staff, infusing Divine Power into the seabed Formation base. The two-hundred-and-fifty-thousand-square-kilometer ocean shook accordingly, and foul-smelling seawater converged toward the central altar.

"Tear open the passage, slaughter the Human Race, and devour the Origin! Whoever steps into the Human Race Ancestral Court first will be able to share a city!"

Hundreds of thousands of scale demons raised their bone forks, their roars suppressing the waves, and several deep-sea demon lizards also lifted their heads from underwater, dragging chains as they swam toward the altar.

Above the Northern Nether Earth of the Divine Kingdom, the coordinate chain pierced through the outer barrier, ripping a hundred-zhang-long gap in space.

Gray-green seawater poured down from the gap, corroding the soil as soon as it hit the ground. Thousands of soul-cleansing grasses were submerged by the seawater, their leaves quickly turning into black mud.

The Formation Master responsible for guarding the Nether Earth activated the protective Formation, but was suppressed by the alien Divine Power surging from the other end, causing three Formation Plates to collapse one after another.

A harsh alarm bell spread from the north to the Ancestral Court. The garrison troops in various cities stopped their rest, the study palaces closed their city gates, and the spiritual fields and mining areas also sealed their Formation bases according to wartime protocols.

[The border of the Divine Kingdom has been forcibly docked by an alien deity. The invasion coordinates have been locked. Enemy divine kingdom tier: First-Order.]

[A spatial rift has appeared in the Northern Nether Earth. Alien seawater is polluting the ley lines. The divine kingdom defense System has entered a wartime state.]

Wang Pingan raised his hand to suppress the northern ley lines, not rushing to close the rift. The Origin of the Divine Kingdom spread along the edge of the Nether Earth, restricting the foul-smelling seawater within a hundred-li range.

The opponent completed the docking by borrowing the Void Realm turbulence. If the coordinate chain were forcibly severed, the turbulence impact would fall into the border of the Divine Kingdom, and a large expanse of land in the Northern Nether Earth would also be torn away.

The safest method was to first resist the invading legion, recapture control of the spatial rift, and then clear away the opponent's Divine Power section by section along the coordinate chain.

Wang Pingan's divine decree fell into the Ancestral Court. Wang Mu was already standing before the main Formation, surrounded by a dozen young Formation Masters around the spirit-detecting plate, quickly marking the polluted areas.

The red scale on the spirit-detecting plate crossed the safety line. Tens of thousands of alien auras were gathering behind the rift, among which were also several giant beasts at the Half-Step Golden Core level.

The young Formation Master raised his head, his speaking speed slightly faster: "Chief Supervisor, the spatial rift is still expanding. It is estimated that in half a quarter of an hour, it will be able to accommodate a large military array to pass through."

Wang Mu took out the wartime master ledger, dropped a military order at the location of the Northern Nether Earth, and tapped the table twice with the back of his hand.

"Wake up the Formation Hall, work is here. All three layers of defensive Formations must turn toward the north. Block the sewage first, and don't let it flow into the Soul-Nurturing Platform."

Tens of thousands of subjects from the Formation Hall set out immediately. Nine sets of second-order defense Formation diagrams unfolded one after another, and Formation patterns converged along the northern mountains toward the edge of the Nether Earth.

The Soul-Purifying Formation and the Earth-Suppression Formation pressed into the soil layer, causing the sewage diffusion speed to drop rapidly. The ley lines that had just been corroded were also isolated from the main cycle by the Formation.

Wang Mu issued another order, opening the wartime military supply channels for the Twelve Study Cities. Shells, Medicinal Pills, and backup Formation Plates were all sent to the north.

"The Medical Cultivator Camp will set up thirty rescue points in the rear. The Artillery Battalion will occupy the high ground first, the Sword Qi Battalion will enter the second line, and the Heavy Armor Army will block the rift."

His orders were transmitted to various camps through the Ancestral Court main Formation. The fifty thousand armored soldiers who had just exited the Shura Field turned around simultaneously, running along the military road toward the Northern Nether Earth.

Wang Shan had already drawn the crimson flame saber, its back heavily patting across his breastplate as dark red blood patterns lit up successively along the fifty thousand sets of xueming mysterious armor.

"I was just worrying about having nowhere to test my blade, and this group of scaled ones delivered themselves right to our doorsteps. The entire army shall don armor, and the thirty-six Formations shall return to their positions!"

Three thousand Shield Soldierss rushed across the military road first. After the heavy shields hit the ground, they formed a front wall, with saber soldiers and spearmen separated on both wings, while Extreme Realm Martial Artistss entered various Formation eyes.

The Artillery Battalion pushed two hundred Purple Mansion heavy cannons up the northern ridges. The Formation Maintenance Team laid down pressure-bearing Formations beneath the artillery positions, and boxes of pure Yang explosive shells were delivered into the position.

The vital energy and blood of fifty thousand people passed through the xueming mysterious armor, converging into thirty-six sub-Formations. The phantom of the Immovable Wisdom King condensed and formed above the military array.

Dark red Evil Qi spread along the Nether Earth, suppressing the foul-smelling sea mist surging from the rift. There was not a single half-step of gap left beneath the feet of the front-row Shield Soldierss.

On the other end of the spatial rift, Carlo was still urging the altar, having never expected that the Human Race divine kingdom it targeted had already completed the full-army array arrangement.

It swung down its bone staff, and twenty thousand scale demon vanguards stepped into the seawater, holding their bone forks obliquely as they rushed into the spatial rift riding the waves.

The Void Realm turbulence inside the rift swept across their scales, causing the bodies of many scale demons to crack. They were still being pushed forward by the rear military array, unable to stop.

The scale demon vanguards at the very front rushed out of the rift, colliding head-on with a dark red steel city wall.

Twenty thousand scale demon vanguards rushed out of the spatial rift, the seawater beneath their feet pushing the military array forward, and dense bone forks crossed the crests of the waves, stabbing down toward the shield wall in front of the array.

The scale demon race was born in the deep sea, possessing a bone-refining level Physical Body upon adulthood. Their scales could deflect the impact of swords and sabers, and close-quarters hand-to-hand combat was their habitual fighting style.

The vanguards selected by Carlo were all veteran soldiers in the army. Every scale demon had experienced several divine kingdom wars, and their bone forks were engraved with armor-piercing blood grooves.

They did not scatter; three layers of military arrays, front and back, squeezed within the hundred-zhang passage, attempting to flatten the human shield wall in one breath by relying on body weight and waves.

"I beg my adoptive fathers and mothers to give some five-star reviews; there have been too many bad reviews recently."

"This adoptive son kowtows in gratitude; besides, generating electricity with love is free, oh."
