334: What happened inside?

War raged all around, and blinding energy orbs constantly appeared in the sky, like exploding stars.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”

Countless mechanical missiles whistled out, raining down on the sky and ground.

“Boom boom boom!!”

Energy beams with immense destructive power crisscrossed the battlefield like giant swords.

The sky and ground were submerged by the mushroom clouds generated by the explosions.

Just the aftershocks of the explosions and the electromagnetic shockwaves from force field collisions were enough to repeatedly destroy small cities like South River City.

“Screech——”

The [Burning Sky Flame Crow] was bathed in crimson flames, its wings expanding to a hundred meters, transforming into a dazzling and brilliant giant firebird. With a flap of its wings, it flew tens of thousands of meters, streaking across the sky like a comet, passing through the dense swarm of mechanical locusts.

The sky-obscuring mechanical locust swarm was instantly ignited like a pile of firewood, exploding one after another.

In a Moment, the sky and ground became a sea of fire.

The sky was dyed crimson by its fierce flames, and everything in its path was incinerated, like a fiery purgatory.

Three thousand worlds were burned by the crows.

The Star Buryer stood in the void, like a phantom Assassin, constantly flashing and disappearing, leaving only scattered silver-green flashes in the air.

No matter what kind of mechanical demon creature it was, it was difficult to detect its movements, and all mechanical defenses were ineffective against it.

Beneath its chilling mechanics, terrifying panel attributes and intelligence were also hidden.

Every time it appeared, it would first annihilate the leaders of the mechanical race in the most efficient way, then release interference information to make the mechanical race lose their targets, and finally unleash a terrifyingly powerful 'Star-Destroying Cannon' strike…

One in the sky and one on the ground, two mechanical creations comparable to Lords blocked the impact of most of the mechanical monster tide.

Mech God Zero, which had entered annihilation mode, released a highly defensive and vast no-entry barrier from the rear, and also provided full-range fire coverage.

The three mechanical creations seemed to transform into an iron wall, blocking the impact of thousands of mechanical monsters.

Lan Lan and Ghost Mask Burial Immortal Flower were also released by Jiang Yuan to assist from the side, gaining massive amounts of experience.

【Ding! You killed Mechanical Demon Whale (lv72), Experience +73234】

【Ding! You killed Mechanical Burstworm (LV71), Experience +73932】

【Ding! You killed…】

White light kept flashing on the two divine-level ferocious pets.

Indicating level increase.

Soon.

Void Nether Divine Fish LV59→lv61, obtained skill - Void Tide: Active skill, stirs the power of the void, causing spatial strangulation that ignores defense to enemies, large area-of-effect attack, cooldown: 10 minutes.

Ghost Mask Burial Immortal Flower Lv47→LV52, obtained skill - Blood Feast Frenzy: For each creature killed, its blood can be used to condense a Clone of the target, the Clone carries 50% of the original body's abilities.

At the feet of Mech God Zero.

The black-clothed young man's eyes darted around rapidly, his gaze constantly sweeping across the entire battlefield.

Finally…

The space in a certain area slightly fluctuated.

Jiang Yuan chuckled.

“Still couldn't hold back.”

“Found you…”

He took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared.

【Divine Speed】

On the other side of the battlefield.

As soon as the [Arbiter] made a move, it was locked onto and suppressed by a terrifying pressure descending from the sky.

Immediately after.

A sudden golden fist light penetrated its defense barrier.

A devastating punch heavily struck its back.

The air shattered, and air currents surged.

“Whoosh——!”

The crimson-bodied [Arbiter] crashed into the ground at an angle like a meteor.

A pitch-black blade light descended from the sky.

A large mountain range rumbled and split apart on both sides, revealing a huge, bottomless ravine.

…

Outside the S-Rank Abyss.

The broken ground at the entrance had been taken over by the army.

Leading them were two long-renowned Generals and Bei Mingxue, who was in charge of the Imperial Guard.

She was wearing a military uniform, gloves, and a military cap, with long, slender legs. She stood there with her hands behind her back, looking heroic and radiating a powerful aura.

“This area is under our control. Everyone, leave this place immediately.”

Bei Mingxue said coldly, dispersing the crowd.

In front of them, who represented order and law, even the Ten Great Families of the Emperor Capital could not disobey.

The crowd had no choice but to leave.

Before leaving, Zheng Huangtong came before Bei Mingxue and mentioned that Jiang Yuan was still in the Abyss.

Bei Mingxue's eyes showed a hint of surprise. She didn't expect this famous young lady from a prominent family in the Emperor Capital, one of the top wealthy beauties, the Judgment Princess, to actually know Jiang Yuan, and they seemed to have a good relationship.

That kid, he really is…

Bei Mingxue nodded and said, “I already know about this matter. Don't worry, we will handle it.”

Hearing this, Zheng Huangtong finally felt relieved.

“We've troubled you.”

She turned and left with the Gong Huang Guild members and Shingu Yu.

As for the Qing Family, Blood Sigh, Faceless Guild, and others, they had already left the Abyss several hours ago and returned to the Emperor Capital.

At this moment in the Emperor Capital, the rumor of Qing Wushuang's defeat had already begun to spread.

One of the spreaders was the Drunken Swordmaster.

“Kid…”

Tang Shanhuang, who was thrown out of the Abyss by Jiang Yuan, also took a deep look at the crumbling entrance before being driven away, saying, “Don't die, alright.”

Everyone was driven away.

Two battle-hardened Generals began to set up the battlefield, burying marrow flame chain ground detonators on the ground, setting up hundreds of thunder machine guns in the distance, destruction cloud detonators, stealth drone swarms equipped with annihilator missiles…

The Magicians and Summoners in the army also began to prepare, restoring their magic power to its peak state, and the Warriors were armed to the teeth.

A fortress was to be set up here to withstand the first wave of impact.

Once the vortex entrance collapses, this will be the first battlefield, and the wave of monsters rushing out of the Abyss must be met with a head-on strike.

“Report, according to the registration information from the entrance/exit Martial Artist badges, a total of 193 people are still in the Abyss, 192 of whom have lost their life signs, leaving only one person.”

A member came before Bei Mingxue.

The image of the black-clothed young man appeared in Bei Mingxue's mind.

She nodded and said, “I understand.”

Following that.

She looked up at the ten-meter-high spatial vortex a thousand meters away. Bloody electric arcs intertwined, and the space was extremely unstable.

Bei Mingxue murmured:

“Why isn't that guy coming out yet? What exactly is he doing inside…?”

Some young soldiers in the army gripped their weapons tightly, staring intently at the massive spatial vortex.

Although they were mentally prepared, their palms couldn't help but sweat at this moment, feeling a bit nervous.

After all, it was an S-Rank Abyss.

This Abyss entrance could collapse at any time. When that happens, what they would face would be countless S-Rank Abyss monsters.

Even if they were the elite City-defending army of the Great Xia Empire, with an average level of Martial Artist Fifth Order, even with full preparation, it would likely be a near-death experience.

As soldiers, protecting their homes and defending their country was their duty!

They would only die, not retreat!

Soon.

Half a day passed.

Most of the deployment was completed.

However, the spatial vortex, which was expected to collapse soon, still showed no signs of movement.

Many soldiers were puzzled.

What exactly… was happening inside?
