80: Chapter 80: A coalition of 2 million troops cleanses the land; the Dark Gold Great Wall teaches them a lesson!

Gale winds kicked up black sand on the Wasteland.

Ye Ninghan's retreat was like a resounding slap across the faces of the remaining nine scions of the noble families.

Zhao Xinghe looked at the army ten kilometers away that was chillingly silent, forcibly suppressing the unease in his heart with angry humiliation.

In Tianhai Province, under the witness of hundreds of thousands of examinees.

If their alliance of eight families was scared off by a commoner, how would they ever hold their heads up in their circles again?

"Fire! Crush that commoner along with his cannon fodder!" Zhao Xinghe drew the longsword at his waist and pointed it straight ahead.

The order was given.

An army of over two million erupted simultaneously.

Directly in front, eighty thousand [Crystal Rock Titan]s, each ten meters tall, stepped forward in unison.

The purple crystal cores in their chests erupted with blinding light.

Eighty thousand high-energy purple crystal blast rays tore through the air, converging into a purple waterfall of light, surging straight toward Lin Yuan's front line.

On the left flank, the twin brothers raised their staffs simultaneously.

"Symphony of Light and Dark!"

One hundred thousand [Light Unicorn Cavalry] raised their Holy Light lances, and one hundred thousand [Shadow Nightmare Cavalry] threw netherworld bone spears.

The Law of Light and Dark intertwined in mid-air.

Forming an extremely unstable energy vortex, it crashed down with the power to annihilate everything.

On the right flank, the young master of the Chu family consortium commanded three hundred thousand [Deep Sea Naga].

These six-armed, snake-tailed monsters simultaneously threw enchanted tridents.

The tridents drew upon abyssal water vapor in the air, transforming into a sky full of icy frost blades.

In the rear, the wind-element noble family's one hundred thousand [Gale Sword Attendants] unleashed tornado Sword Qi.

The thunder-element noble family's eighty thousand [Thunderstorm Raging Lions] spat out chain ball lightning.

The fire-element consortium's fifty thousand [Lava Behemoths] hurled magma fireballs the size of houses.

The poison-element noble family's two hundred thousand [Venomous Swamp Monsters] sprayed corrosive toxic rain that blotted out the sky.

The earth-element noble family's one hundred fifty thousand [Heavy Armored Gargoyles] activated gravity compression, attempting to lock down the evasion space of Lin Yuan's army.

The nine major clans, firepower fully unleashed.

With the concentrated fire of over two million troops, the demonic clouds in the firmament were forcefully dispersed.

Five-colored rays of light illuminated the dim Demon God Planet as bright as day.

Facing this world-destroying baptism of fire, Lin Yuan stood on the shoulder of the Tyrant Demon and said only one word.

"Block."

"Roar—!"

The Tyrant Demon roared at the sky, its dark-black supreme gravity field spreading outward.

Three hundred thousand [Titan Violent Demon]s took long strides, booming past the front line.

They did not dodge, nor did they retreat.

Three hundred thousand monsters squatted simultaneously, slamming the three-meter-wide liquid metal tower shields in their hands heavily into the ground.

"Click, click, click!"

The sound of metal grinding echoed across the Wasteland.

The dark gold fluid at the edges of the three hundred thousand tower shields rapidly extended and fused.

In the blink of an eye, a dark gold metal Great Wall stretching over a dozen kilometers rose from the ground.

The next second.

Light beams, spears, ice blades, lightning, fireballs, and toxic rain all slammed into the metal Great Wall.

"Boom—!"

The explosions were deafening.

The intense light stripped everyone of their vision.

Violent shockwaves tore off three layers of soil within a ten-mile radius.

Zhao Xinghe looked at the enemy formation engulfed in light, a cruel grin appearing on his face.

"Idiots, daring to withstand the concentrated fire of the nine-family alliance head-on. Even if your front line is all high-tier heavy armor, you'll be blown to dust!"

However.

When the light faded and the smoke was blown away by the gale.

The smile on Zhao Xinghe's face froze.

On the Wasteland, the dark gold metal Great Wall still stood tall.

Ripples like water waves spread across its surface.

The high heat capable of melting steel, the Sword Qi that could pierce armor, the toxic rain that could corrode bone.

The moment they touched the tower shields, they were directly swallowed by the dark gold fluid.

Physical immunity, kinetic energy rebound.

The three hundred thousand [Titan Violent Demon]s stood behind the shields; aside from a few white marks on their skin, not even a layer of skin was broken.

"This... this is impossible!" The Chu family young master's eyes widened, his voice cracking.

The twin brothers' hands holding their staffs began to tremble.

All of their ranged attacks.

Under full-force carpet bombing, they hadn't even shattered a single layer of the opponent's shields!

"That's all there is to it." Lin Yuan raised his hand and pointed forward, "Take out the back line."

After the order was given.

In Lin Yuan's camp, the fifty thousand [Tyrant Demon]s with the most terrifying auras moved.

Their forms blurred, merging into the shadows beneath their feet, vanishing into thin air.

Meanwhile, in the sky.

The [Shadow Abyssal Demon]s on the backs of hundreds of thousands of [Demon Vulture]s and [Bone Blade Bat]s.

As their mounts ascended, these [Shadow Abyssal Demon]s also activated their ethereal form one after another, disappearing deep into the clouds.

On the battlefield, Lin Yuan's forces were suddenly reduced by nearly half.

"Where are they? Where did they go?" Zhao Xinghe's mental perception lost the signal of this batch of enemies.

"Defend! All troops, tighten formation! Watch the ground and the sky!" a consortium scion roared.

Too late.

Just as they were tightening their formation, the shadows at the center of the allied army's main camp began to boil.

"Squelch!"

A [Deep Sea Naga] had just raised its trident when a dark gold arm suddenly reached out from the shadow beneath its feet.

The arm ignored the Naga's protective water shield and directly crushed its throat.

Fifty thousand dual-sequence [Tyrant Demon]s drilled out from every corner of the allied positions.

The slaughter began.

A Platinum-tier [Tyrant Demon] charged into the [Crystal Rock Titan] phalanx.

The supreme Titan gravity field pressed down, slowing the movements of the surrounding dozen [Crystal Rock Titan]s.

The [Tyrant Demon] threw a punch, and the sonic boom exploded.

"Bang!"

Three ten-meter-tall [Crystal Rock Titan]s were blown apart in a row by this punch.

The indestructible purple crystal bodies shattered into powder.

The dark gold fluid on the [Tyrant Demon]'s body spread, swallowing the purple crystal remains on the ground and converting them into its own energy.

On the other side, the [Shadow Abyssal Demon]s in the sky appeared.

They rode [Demon Vulture]s and [Bone Blade Bat]s, circling above the allied troops.

Liquid metal condensed in their hands.

Transforming into tens of thousands of flying knives and barbed chains.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The flying knives precisely pierced the chests of the [Gale Sword Attendants].

The chains wrapped around the necks of the [Light Unicorn]s and pulled with great force, ripping off the heads of the knights along with their mounts.

The mages and archers in the back row had absolutely no melee capability.

Under the air-to-ground three-dimensional assault of the [Shadow Abyssal Demon]s, they fell in droves.

Blood stained the Wasteland red.

"Counterattack! Give me a counterattack!" Zhao Xinghe's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared hoarsely.

But he discovered in despair that the allied forces' attacks on these [Tyrant Demon]s had no lethal effect at all.

Sword Qi slashed at the dark gold fluid, unable to leave even a mark.

Magic bombarded them, at most making them take a few steps back.

And one punch from a [Tyrant Demon] could take the lives of several high-tier units.

Taking advantage of the chaos in the rear of the allied forces.

Lin Yuan's main force in the front moved.

"Crush them."

The [Titan Violent Demon]s acting as the vanguard put away their tower shields.

They clasped their hands together, transforming into a liquid metal war hammer.

Three hundred thousand heavy-armored monsters took strides, slamming fiercely into the allied front defense line.

The [Heavy Armored Gargoyles] blocking the very front were smashed to pieces upon impact.

Following closely behind were eight hundred thousand [Soldier Insect]s.

A black tsunami swept across the ground.

The [Soldier Insect]s' arthropod limbs cut through all living things.

They ignored the corrosive venom of the [Venomous Swamp Monsters], opened their mouthparts, and tore into them.

In the sky, eight thousand [Calamity Fire Spirit] converged.

They transformed into dozens of [Calamity Elemental Spirit Lord]s, each one hundred meters tall.

They condensed whips of extreme cold toxic fire, each a thousand meters long, in their hands.

The long whips swung, lashing into the dense formation of the allied forces.

The toxic fire ignited the [Holy Light] of the [Light Unicorn]s, and even the [Law] was polluted.

Attacking from inside and out.

The defense line completely collapsed within the third minute of contact.

"I cannot lose! I absolutely cannot lose to a commoner!" Zhao Xinghe's eyes were splitting, he bit the tip of his tongue and communicated with his divine domain core.

"Talent Activation! Crystallization Frenzy!"

Zhao Xinghe had awakened an A-rank combat talent.

As the talent activated, red light appeared on the bodies of the few remaining [Crystal Rock Titan]s in the front row.

Their defense increased significantly, and their attacks carried crystallization pollution.

The twin brothers also fought desperately.

"Combo Talent! Holy-Demonic Sacrifice!"

They forcibly extracted the life force of low-tier clans and poured it into their core elites.

In the camp, four or five thousand [Light-Dark Knights] that had reached the Platinum tier erupted with pillars of light that pierced the sky, attempting to forcefully tear open a bloody path.

The other noble scions also activated their talents one after another.

Buff auras, bloodlust frenzy, Law reinforcement.

The remnant armies of the nine major clans erupted with a fighting power reminiscent of a final flicker before death.

Five thousand Platinum-tier combat units took the lead in charging.

Lin Yuan looked at the dying, struggling allied forces of the noble families below and sneered.

"Talent?"

The Tyrant Demon leapt out from beneath Lin Yuan's feet.

Its fifteen-meter-tall body slammed into the center of the battlefield.

"Supreme Titan!"

The Tyrant Demon's Platinum six-star pressure was released without reservation.

The [Law] within a hundred-mile radius was forcibly tampered with and doubled.

The hundreds of Platinum-tier [Light-Dark Knights] charging in the front were pressed flat onto the ground, riders and horses alike, their bones emitting cracking sounds from being unable to bear the weight.

Fifty thousand dual-sequence [Tyrant Demon]s swarmed to kill.

There were no flashy skill exchanges.

It was just the purest crushing of power, the most primitive flying of flesh and blood.

A Platinum-tier [Crystal Rock Titan] swung its giant fist at the Tyrant Demon.

The Tyrant Demon did not dodge or evade, catching the giant fist with one hand.

The dark gold fluid spread along the arm, wrapping around the entire body of the [Crystal Rock Titan].

Accompanied by a teeth-gritting sound of compression, this Platinum-tier Titan was forcefully crushed into a ball of scrap.

Slaughter.

A one-sided slaughter without suspense.

The army of over two million, in front of Lin Yuan's [Wasteland] dependents.

Was like weeds in a wheat field, being harvested crop by crop.

...

Demon Suppression Fortress, VIP viewing room.

In the spacious and luxurious hall, only the sounds of fighting and screaming coming from the big screen remained.

The heads of the noble families of Tianhai Province were all unable to make a sound.

The cigar in the hand of the Zhao family head burned his fingers, but he was completely unaware.

His eyes were fixed on the allied army being one-sidedly slaughtered on the screen.

Four or five thousand Platinum-tier combat units, an army of over two million.

Divine talents activated, all trump cards played.

Then, they were pinned to the ground and beaten to death by a group of mutated monsters covered in dark gold fluid.

The opponent didn't even use their talents, relying purely on the base [Physical Body] attributes of their dependents to steamroll the elites of the nine major noble families.

"This... what kind of monsters are these?" a consortium director's voice trembled.

"Physical immunity, gravity [Law], spatial lurking, and that dark gold substance that can swallow and assimilate everything…"

Patriarch Xiao Tiannan sat in the main seat, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles cracked, "A [Wasteland Divine Domain], how could it possibly breed such a species that defies common sense!"

Patriarch Xiao Tiannan turned his head and stared fixedly at Commander Xiao Lie.

"General Xiao, what level of resources did you give him?!"

Commander Xiao Lie leaned back on the sofa, toying with an empty wine glass, nonchalant.

"The resources I gave?" Commander Xiao Lie sneered, "Patriarch Xiao, don't flatter yourself."

"The basic supplies I gave him aren't even worth a single hair from your Xiao Family."

"Those are the soldiers he raised himself."

Commander Xiao Lie put down the wine glass and looked around at all the noble family bigwigs present.

"Who was it that said commoners have no foundation just now?"

"Who said that young masters fed with resources could crush cannon fodder?"

Deputy Commander Chen Tie stood to the side, his laughter making the glass of the viewing room hum.

"Hahaha! Good! Well killed!" Deputy Commander Chen Tie pointed at the big screen, mercilessly rubbing salt into the wounds of the noble family bigwigs.

"Is this the foundation you are so proud of? Is this your [Prodigy]?"

"Three million fighting two million, and getting your back line taken out without even being able to react."

"Talents fully activated, and you didn't even scratch a layer of their skin."

Deputy Commander Chen Tie slammed a hand on the table, his gaze cold.

"If I were on the abyss front line and brought such trash to the battlefield, I'd be gnawed down to the bone by monsters on the first day!"

"Now, what else do you have to say?"

In the viewing room, no one dared to answer.

The faces of all the noble family bigwigs.

Were all beaten swollen by this crushing victory of Lin Yuan.
