138: Battle of the Great Wall

"Task Name: Food Defender"

"Task Description: Designate a person whose food will all be polluted and become extremely unpalatable. Within a limited time, use the Cleaning Superpower to remove the pollutants from his food. After successful cleaning, you will receive a special reward. Furthermore, the more people who taste the cleaned food and find it delicious, the more generous your reward will be. Note that even if the polluted food is thoroughly cleaned of Impurities, it will still be very unpalatable."

This task could be said to be tailor-made for Han Fei.

The delicious effect his Magical Culinary Arts bestowed upon food would definitely surpass any pollution.

At that time, he would only need to clean the food of its pollution, and he could let a large number of people taste it, thus obtaining more rewards.

However, Han Fei was not in a hurry to accept this task; he wanted to wait for the daily chain tasks to appear, then do it along the way.

His top priority now was to quickly improve his strength.

He had a premonition that once his Superpower reached the third level, there would be a qualitative change!

The incident Luna Fairy Spirit encountered gave him a strong sense of crisis.

He understood that his remaining time was running out... At the same time.

Dragon Spine Great Wall.

This giant Dragon, standing firm from ancient times to the present, had its body coiled among towering mountains and ridges, its stone-built scales shimmering with a faint golden glow under the setting sun, as if a true Dragon was bathing in its last light, showcasing an ancient and solemn beauty.

Above the city wall, arrow towers and beacon towers were scattered in an orderly fashion, every brick and tile recording the vicissitudes and glory of history, yet also unable to conceal the traces of the current war.

Ever since the Seven Deadly Sins, that group of rampaging demons, descended, this once peaceful land had been plunged into endless war and chaos.

The Great Wall, the Guardian of peace in the past, had now become the frontline against the forces of darkness. Every stone, every crack, bore witness to countless epic life-and-death struggles.

Beneath the Great Wall, dark clouds pressed down, as if condensed from the fury of the sky, echoing the dark forces stirring on the ground.

Amidst the dark clouds, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, intertwining with the roars of beasts on the ground to form a symphony of doomsday.

Those fierce beasts, driven by dark power, had no reason in their eyes, only bloodthirsty madness, like a doomsday flood, charging relentlessly with an Aura of destroying everything against this defense line of human civilization.

At the forefront of this overwhelming beast tide, a massive, majestic wolf king stood, its physique far surpassing its kin, every strand of fur exuding a chilling coldness.

The beast king's eyes were like two burning flames, revealing an undeniabledomineering aura, and with every swipe of its claw, the air seemed to tear apart, stones scattered, displaying its astonishing destructive power.

Facing this overwhelming threat, above the Great Wall, the main force responsible for resistance, the Cultivators of Dragon Country, displayed unprecedented unity and determination.

They wore Cultivators robes embroidered with complex runes, these robes shimmering with a mysterious glow in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if they were the purest source of power between heaven and earth.

Every Cultivator's face was filled with determination and fearlessness, their eyes not only held a desire for victory but also a deep love for the land beneath their feet.

The Cultivators arranged themselves in a strict Formation, like an insurmountable wall of bronze and iron. Their positions were just right, their tacit understanding needing no words, a single glance conveying their thoughts.

Behind them, sword light was like weaving, proof of countless sword art masters poised to strike. The sword light converged into dazzling pillars of light, pointing directly to the sky, as if even the heavens would be shaken by this power.

With a command, dozens of sword art masters simultaneously activated the spiritual energy within their bodies. In an instant, the sky seemed to be torn apart by thousands of Sharp Weapons, sword light pouring down like the Milky Way, striking the surging beast tide with thunderous force.

Every beam of sword light was precise, cutting through the air with a sharp whistle. Wherever it passed, even the fiercest beasts could not escape the fate of being purified, dissipating into streaks of light and shadow in the wind.

Among these Cultivators, Nascent Soul Cultivator Yue Bai was undoubtedly the core.

She stood aloof at the Peak of the ancient Great Wall, her body gently enveloped by the cool moonlight, her clothes swaying softly in the wind, like an untainted Fairy, standing alone in the world.

The long sword in her hand, named "Frost Splendor," was light as nothing yet incomparably sharp. As she danced elegantly and nimbly, the sword tip created ripples of silvery white, like frost flowers in the early winter morning, beautiful enough to be heart-stopping.

Wherever the sword light reached, even the heavy night was split in two, revealing a hint of undeniable resolve and power.

At this moment, a massive Fire Dragon, carrying a furious flame capable of burning the sky and boiling the seas, roared as it attacked the Great Wall, attempting to tear open this ancient defense line with destructive power.

However, Yue Bai faced such a terrifying existence without the slightest ripple in her eyes, only determination and calmness.

She gripped Frost Splendor tightly with both hands, spiritual energy surging within her. The sword tip condensed an extreme cold gleam, instantly transforming into a dazzling silver meteor, soaring into the sky, then, like a celestial Fairy descending, it precisely pierced deep into the Fire Dragon's core.

The Fire Dragon let out an earth-shattering wail of agony. The raging inferno within its body seemed to encounter a thousand-year-old ice, being swallowed bit by bit by that indescribable cold power. The surrounding air also became bitingly cold, and even the Fire Dragon's arrogant Aura gradually withered, finally collapsing with a crash, turning into nothingness.

Yue Bai's sword light was like the wings of a Guardian, gently sweeping over every fierce beast attempting to climb the Great Wall. Each sword swing was a perfect blend of art and slaughter.

She was like an elf on the battlefield, each flash leaving behind a brilliant rainbow, protecting this land from intrusion.

Her sword art was not only a Sharp Weapon for slaying demons and devils but also a warm barrier protecting all living beings, bringing peace and hope to the creatures beneath the Great Wall on stormy nights.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Great Wall, a group of mages were nervously exerting their powers.

They gathered around a massive and complex magic Formation, the light emanating from this Formation resembling the most brilliant Milky Way in the night sky, every star telling an ancient and mysterious story.

The mages held their staff, closed their eyes in concentration, chanting spells from ancient times, imbued with endless wisdom.

As the rhythm of the incantations quickened, the light of the magic Formation grew even more dazzling, as if the entire celestial river poured down, illuminating the earth as if it were daytime.

Among this group of mages, Du Yan, a mage hailed as quasi-S-rank, stood at the core of the Formation with his outstanding leadership and unfathomable magical power.

He raised his staff, its tip drawing elegant arcs in the air, and the summoned light pillars, like Heavenly God descending, intertwined to form an indestructible net of light, intercepting all attacks from the fierce beasts.

The energy contained within these light pillars was astonishing. Each collision with the beast horde was accompanied by a thunderous roar. Even massive stone apes, under the impact of this power, could only let out desperate wails, their unbreakable rocky skin gradually cracking, eventually collapsing with a crash, turning into a pile of ruins.

Du Yan's hands moved elegantly in the air, his fingertips dancing with a faint blue light, as if guiding the purest energy between heaven and earth.

With a low chant from him, dozens of energy arrows, imbued with astonishing power, shot forth. They drew streaks of brilliant light and color across the night sky, spectacular like a meteor shower.

Each arrow's trail dragged a long ribbon of light, finally striking the restless enemies below with pinpoint accuracy.

Accompanied by bursts of roars, the energy arrows erupted with dazzling light upon contact. A powerful shockwave swept across the surroundings, blasting the fierce beasts attempting to climb the Great Wall into scattered flesh and blood, a smell of scorched earth and gunpowder filling the air.

At the same time, above the Great Wall, the figures of the mecha warriors were particularly striking amidst the clamor of battle.

They piloted mechs several zhang tall, like Heavenly God descending from ancient myths, each step they took causing the ground to tremble slightly.

The outer shells of these mechs gleamed with a cold metallic luster under the moonlight, various weapons and equipment embedded upon them. Laser cannons and flamethrowers occasionally emitted scorching light in the darkness, adding a touch of sci-fi romance to this cruel battlefield.

Ling Feng, hailed as a legend in Dragon Country's mecha world, was currently clad in a streamlined, silver-white mech. Its surface was smooth as a mirror, reflecting the battle's firelight, appearing both noble and deadly.

The laser sword in his hand, several meters long, its blade emitting dazzling light, seemed capable of cutting through space itself with every swing, incomparably sharp.

Ling Feng maneuvered his mech, leaping lightly over the Great Wall. Wherever the laser sword reached, whether it was solid rock walls or enemy armor, it was easily cut open, leaving behind scorching cracks, demonstrating the unparalleled power of this greatsword.

The heavy energy cannon equipped on his mech's back was an even greater weapon of war.

Whenever Ling Feng locked onto a target, the energy cannon fired with a roar, releasing a powerful light capable of illuminating half the sky, followed by deafening explosions, fire reaching to the heavens, blasting the beast horde below into flying flesh and blood, filling the fields with wails.

Ling Feng's mech moved nimbly, as if it possessed life, not only unstoppable in attack but also impenetrable in defense.

The thrusters at the mech's rear spewed roaring flames, forming a rotating fire shield. Any attack attempting to approach was mercilessly swallowed by this fiery barrier.

However, even though Ling Feng was incomparably brave, the enemy's numbers seemed endless, surging in wave after wave, each clash adding more scars to his mech.

Cracks began to appear on the mech's outer shell, and the laser sword's light also dimmed slightly due to energy consumption.

A hint of gravity flashed in Ling Feng's eyes; he knew that the true test had only just begun.
