99: The arrival of the starship shocked the world.

The battle had fallen into a brutal tug-of-war.

Relying on their superior numbers and abundance of experts, the coalition launched wave after wave of attacks, attempting to exhaust the foundations of the Star Moon Sect.

Meanwhile, the Star Moon Sect struggled to hold on, relying on its mountain-protecting Formation, while Lin Yang and his core team acted like firefighters, rushing everywhere to eliminate the most dangerous enemies and compensate for the lack of high-level combat power.

Lin Yang fought three experts at the Minor Accomplishment of Spirit Sea Realm alone; although he grew more courageous with each fight and even severely injured one, his own consumption was significant, and the recovery speed of his Chaos Gang Qi began to fail to keep up with the intense depletion, leaving him with many wounds.

The Four Women, including Bai Wanqing, were all injured, and their True Essence consumption was immense; they barely managed to hold on, relying entirely on Mu Yao's healing and Medicinal Pill support, as well as the constant assistance from the starship's secondary cannons.

The coalition clearly noticed this.

Thunderclap Sword Venerable and Fairy Lingyun exchanged a glance, both seeing the determination in the other's eyes.

"We cannot drag this out any longer! Too many things can go wrong!" Thunderclap Sword Venerable roared, "Sword Sect Disciples, take heed! Form the 'Heavenly Gang Sword Evil Qi Formation'! At all costs, blast open this turtle shell for me!"

"Immortal Palace Disciples, lend the Sword Sect a hand! Inject your True Essence into the sword Formation!" Fairy Lingyun commanded simultaneously.

Immediately, all the Sword Sect Disciples pointed their swords toward the sky, and the massive Sword Qi and Evil Qi converged, condensing in the air into a colossal, dark red giant sword overflowing with Evil Qi!

Countless Immortal Palace Disciples also poured their True Essence into it from a distance, causing the volume and power of the giant sword to surge crazily once more; wherever the tip of the sword pointed, the space began to twist and collapse!

This strike gathered nearly the full power of the two allied sects, and its might had already surpassed the Major Achievement of Spirit Sea Realm, even approaching the terrifying level of the Peak of Spirit Sea Realm!

Su Qingyue's expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed, "Oh no! The Formation definitely cannot withstand this strike!"

All the Star Moon Sect Disciples felt that world-destroying aura, and looks of despair appeared on their faces.

"Lin Yang! Die!" Thunderclap Sword Venerable grinned viciously as the giant sword crashed down! Wherever it passed, the Void Realm seemed to be sliced open with a pitch-black rift!

At this critical moment!

The starship, which had been hovering on the flank providing fire support, suddenly erupted with an unprecedented, brilliant light!

The entire hull hummed, no longer a phantom or energy projection, but a real, complete hull!

"Star Core power, fully activated! Star Ray main cannon, charging!" Lin Yang's voice resonated coldly across the battlefield through the starship.

He had long anticipated that the enemy would launch a desperate strike and had been preparing in secret. At this moment, his mind perfectly fused with the Star Core, completely unleashing the full power of the starship!

At the bow of the starship, the huge crystal suddenly lit up, as if it had swallowed all the surrounding light, and a terrifying energy that made heaven and earth fall silent and all things tremble was condensing crazily within it!

Its energy level even surpassed that of the descending dark red giant sword!

"That... what is that?!" Fairy Lingyun's face paled, feeling a fear that originated from the depths of her Soul.

"Impossible! How could a Magic Treasure have such power?!" Thunderclap Sword Venerable was also terrified to the point of despair.

"Fire!" Lin Yang issued the final command without the slightest hesitation.

Whoosh—!!!

A gray-gold beam of light, its thickness and brilliance indescribable in words, shot out from the starship's main cannon!

It seemed to pierce through time and space, and the energy it contained had already reached another level, carrying the aura of pure destruction and Chaos!

There was no violent explosion, only a teeth-grinding hiss as if space itself was being torn apart!

That dark red giant sword, which had gathered the full force of the two allied sects, was like snow meeting the scorching sun in front of this gray-gold beam of light; starting from the tip, it shattered, disintegrated, and annihilated inch by inch! It couldn't even block it for an instant!

After annihilating the giant sword, the gray-gold beam of light did not lose its momentum and crashed directly into the most dense core area of the coalition fleet!

There was no explosion, only silent annihilation!

Wherever the light passed, whether it was flying ships, Magical Artifacts, Cultivators, or various defensive Formations, they all turned into the most primitive particles and disappeared without a trace! It was as if they had been completely wiped from the world by an invisible hand!

With a single strike, the coalition's core fleet lost more than thirty percent! This included several Elders of the Spirit Sea Realm and countless elite Disciples!

Silence! A deathly silence blanketed the entire battlefield!

Whether they were Star Moon Sect Disciples or the surviving coalition forces, everyone was completely shocked by this world-destroying, cognition-defying strike! The universe trembled!

The starship, this mysterious creation from beyond the heavens, revealed for the first time before the world its terrifying fangs as a weapon of interstellar warfare, a strike that could be called dimensional reduction!

The morale of the coalition collapsed completely under this strike!
