Simultaneous travel: I am rampant in the domestic area

Chapter 206 This punch teaches us to guard against arrogance and impetuosity.
Time ticked by second amid the active preparations of the entire Chinese military and civilian population.

Upon learning that their equipment could effectively kill the enemy, both officers and soldiers transformed their fear and confusion into excitement and anticipation in the face of this battle against extraterrestrial forces.

For decades, China has enjoyed peace and prosperity. Young soldiers are eager to make a name for themselves. This time, it's not just about fighting a war, but about fighting aliens. How could they not be genuinely excited?
"Russell, do you think we'll win?"

On the Juxia, rows of helicopters and fighter jets were on the helipad, ready to depart at any moment. In the final moments before heading to the battlefield, Qi Lin, on behalf of the members of the Super Soldier Company and all the soldiers on the Juxia who were about to go to various battlefields, asked Russell about her expectations.

Russell looked around and met the eyes of many young people, full of vitality and hope. He smiled slightly, raised his hand high, and gripped it tightly. As the three-pointed double-edged sword came into his hand, he was clad in armor, majestic and awe-inspiring, and his divine light shone brightly. He had transformed back into the Erlang Shen, the man everyone knew.

“We will win!” Russell said firmly. “The sky is in my hands and the Great Sage’s hands. You all just need to fight to the death.”

"Boarding! Departure!"

As the commander gave the order over the loudspeaker, several formations on the deck of the Giant Gorge began to move in an orderly manner.

Russell and Sun Wukong exchanged a glance, and without hesitation, they both rushed into the sky.

Just as Russell said, the sky is their battlefield.

Their mission was to destroy the Taotie's main ship near Earth's atmosphere, forcing them to switch from a technologically overwhelming war to close-quarters combat with ground troops.

"Monkey, let's see who kills the most!" Above the atmosphere, watching the Taotie vanguard fleet, escort ships, large cross ships, and battleship flagship about to tear the Earth's sky apart, Russell shouted loudly. Before the monkey could answer, the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe in his hand had already expanded to a height of a hundred feet.

It slashed down fiercely at a cruciform ship.

[Calculation of target energy source failed, recalculating...]

[Redefining kinetic energy, definition failed...]

Before the cross-shaped ship, a white steel-armored warrior with a suit of armor engraved with dark blue patterns pushed his hands out. In an instant, hundreds of data points flashed before his eyes. Then, he and the cross-shaped ship were reduced to ashes by the sharp edge of the mountain-splitting axe.

"How can you cheat with your three eyes!" the monkey protested, and the golden cudgel suddenly split into thousands of pieces, raining down on the cross-ship like a storm. The cross-ship's shield gradually crumbled under the dense attack. Seeing the shield shatter, the golden cudgel instantly expanded to a thousand meters, crashing down on the cross-ship like a giant pillar supporting the sky. The ship's hull instantly twisted and deformed, leaving a long tongue of fire as it fell to the ground through the atmosphere.

"Push them down! Let the gods of Earth's civilization understand what the era of the Great Legion is all about!" With a command from the Taotie commander, countless small spaceships poured down from the escort ships, tearing through the clouds and carrying purple dark matter missiles as they crashed into Russell and the monkey in a suicide attack.

"The enemy not only refuses to surrender, but is also launching a counterattack against us?" The monkey grinned, and hundreds and thousands of clones surged like a tide, obscuring the entire sky with countless Sun Wukongs, wielding their Ruyi Jingu Bang, charging towards the Taotie fleet.

Russell chuckled softly, and the Demon-Slaying Sword at his waist suddenly emitted a clear hum, its snow-white sword energy filling the sky. As the sword energies intertwined, the entire sky shimmered.

The vanguard fleet of Taotie, which was the first to rush in, was like a swarm of bees crashing into a crusher. Under the onslaught of Russell and the monkey, they were turned into dazzling fireworks that exploded in the sky.

For a moment, only the buzzing of sword energy and the explosions of warships could be heard between heaven and earth. Countless tiny, snow-white sword energies and figures moving at high speed could be seen.

"Guess what will fall down from above in a bit?"

"It would be best if that guy named Karl came down in person, so that I, Old Sun, could meet the chief god of this Styx Galaxy."

After shooting down all the ships that had entered Chinese airspace, Russell and Sun Wukong stopped and turned their attention to a higher place, where the Styx Fang was anchored in Earth's orbit.

The Gluttonous King Shihao sat in the command room at the top of the ship, where dense data scrolled continuously on a large screen, recording the topography, climate, environment, and power distribution of different regions of the earth.

"My King, apart from the battlefields in China and Africa, our army has achieved remarkable results in other war zones around the world," Long Diao reported.

"What are the casualties?" Shihao stood up from his seat. The steel wings that spread behind him and the dense blue patterns on his body symbolized his extraordinary nature.

"All the cross-ships, frigates, firepower ships, and battleships that entered Chinese airspace were annihilated. Only less than 100,000 soldiers landed on the ground, and their landing sites were very scattered. They are currently under artillery fire from Chinese ground forces."

"Open the wormhole and deploy the hibernation pods. Leave the two gods to me. Keep a close eye on the movements of the sky battlefield. Once their life energy is detected to be gone, the Fang of the Styx will immediately descend into the atmosphere and launch a devastating attack on Tianhe City, Juxia City, and North Star."

"As ordered."

"All for my god Karl, the Taotie Legion will eventually become the graveyard of the galaxy."

The eyes of the Howler, transformed into a fully mechanical life form, gleamed with azure light.

The wormhole opened, and the next moment, his figure appeared in the atmosphere above Tianhe City, facing the two gods of Earth's civilization.

"Who comes here?" Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes. With his fiery eyes, he could see that the person in front of him had been completely transformed into a machine except for his brain. His only source of energy was the core located in his chest.

His keen eyes couldn't see through this core; he could only see a void, which must be the void that Karl was researching.

"The Gluttonous King Shihao, the culprit who invaded your Earth, without exception." Shihao introduced himself, his tone calm but with a hint of arrogance. Yes, arrogance: "Battle Venerable Sun Wukong, Pure Source Mystic Dao True Lord Yang Jian, in order to deal with the two of you, I, God Karl, have bestowed upon me even greater power. Now, I am invincible."

"Ha, instead of being a 'human' with flesh and blood, he transforms himself into this grotesque form. How utterly laughable," Sun Wukong sneered.

"This body was born for war, for honor, for my god Karl. There's nothing wrong with that." Howling pulled a Void Sword from the void: "Now, king against king, general against general. Which of you will fight me and die under the Void Engine? That will be your lifelong honor."

Russell and Sun Wukong were initially eager to make a move, but after the words "King of Howling against King against King" appeared, they both calmed down and began to yield, neither willing to be the first to step forward.

"You... how dare you!" Shihao felt insulted. He hesitated for less than a second between Russell and the monkey, then attacked the monkey without saying a word.

He proclaimed himself the greatest swordsman in the universe and naturally wanted to compete with the master in martial arts. However, Russell was unknown, while the monkey was already famous throughout the universe.

So, under Russell's mocking gaze, the monkey had no choice but to rush forward and fight howling.

"Then, what follows is the battle between you and me."

Russell turned to look behind him, and ripples spread through the empty space. A slender and aggressive mantis revealed itself, rubbing its arm blades.

Whether it's the tibia covered with barbs, the arm blades at the end of the sickle-shaped forelimbs, or the row of sharp, serrated bone spurs protruding from its back, all of these symbolize that it is an absolute biological weapon.

"Hiss..." Kha'Zix hissed, his body slightly bent, like a bow ready to be drawn. Fluorescent purple light seeped from the gaps in his carapace. His triangular head was lowered, his pupils contracted into slits, and his gaze at Russell was cold and greedy.

"No wisdom? What a pity." Russell shook his head, his three-pointed double-edged sword whistling as it slashed down, shattering the void in an instant, the resulting gale tearing through thousands of miles of sky! Under the fierce divine light, Kha'Zix reacted extremely quickly, instantly raising its twin scythe-like serrated blades, crossing them in front of it, and retreating upon contact with the three-pointed double-edged sword, its figure vanishing like a ghost in an instant.

Russell narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't sense any spatial ripples; it wasn't teleportation.

Is this the void? It completely violates the laws of physics, like rewriting the underlying code.

hum!
Without a sound or a breath, Russell instinctively turned around and raised his gun to parry.

It originated from the crisis foresight of a third-rank martial artist.

In the midst of complete silence, Kha'Zix's wings flapped violently, and his scythe, wreathed in corrosive purple light, slashed down. In close combat, Russell frowned, and without hesitation discarded his three-pointed double-edged sword, which had been broken in two, and threw a powerful punch, only to have it dodged by Kha'Zix's intangible form.

The void that can be called the most mysterious in the world of Super Gods must be something special.

Russell reached out and grasped a wisp of the void's aura, feeling the devouring energy emanating from it, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

It can become ethereal, knows how to devour, and comes from outside the main world. How come its configuration is so similar to his?

"hiss!"

A faint hissing sound came from the air, and before Russell could think much, Kha'Zix's attack came one after another.

His body was sometimes blurred, sometimes hidden, as if this void battlefield was a part of him.

He attacks with an extremely high frequency, striking and retreating in a split second, able to launch surprise attacks on Russell from several different directions.

In an instant, the battlefield was filled with flashes of dark purple light as Kha'Zix launched attacks from all directions.

Physics is a joke in the face of this creature.

"Looks like you need your help."

Hearing the commotion from the dark dimension, Russell clashed his fists together, creating a tangible shockwave. Kha'Zix disappeared again, and when he looked up, he saw that Sun Wukong had already flown back carrying Howling's head.

"So fast?" Russell was a little surprised. The complexity of this void was quite troublesome even for him. This monkey was inferior to him in every aspect. Although the Howling Beast was not a high-level creature, it should not be so easy to deal with.

“His methods are useless against me, Old Sun. How long would it take to kill an empty shell that isn’t even a super soldier?” Sun Wukong said matter-of-factly.

Russell exclaimed in surprise, "Anti-void? You can do that? What's the principle behind it?"

"Don't ask about the principles, I don't know either, I just know how."

"Heh." Russell glanced at the monkey and cracked his neck. "Just watch and see. A mantis can still turn the world upside down."

As I said before, since the mechanism is inferior to the opponent's, then use absolute numbers to crush them.

"open!"

With a low shout, Russell opened his third eye between his eyebrows, bursting forth with an unprecedentedly intense golden light that pierced through heaven and earth.

Above the sky, a blazing golden light shot straight down to the earth, its scorching heat causing the entire space to become unstable and subtly undulating!

With the support of stellar energy, Russell could feel his long-dormant blood beginning to boil, his bones becoming hot, and even every cell pulsating, with bursts of power erupting from them!
"I don't know how long it would take me to reach that level on my own."

Russell sighed softly. Since entering this level, the improvements they had made to each other during these fusions had decreased significantly, unlike before when each fusion could propel their cultivation forward by a large margin.

But it doesn't matter. With his current cultivation level, he can already deal with many calamities in this universe, such as the mantis in front of him.

As a treasure left behind by the Divine River Civilization, the Sunlight, known as one of the three great projects of creating gods, is now in the hands of an outsider, and under the blessing of laws that are completely different from science, it has finally shone with its true brilliance.

Under the sun, all evil and wickedness will have nowhere to hide.

Russell took a step forward, and the space around him was filled with an endless, explosive surge of power, causing it to explode. His entire body seemed to grow taller and larger without end!

This is not a manifestation of the laws of heaven and earth, but rather an illusion caused by his overly strong will.

He slowly stretched out his hand, and then an indescribable, vast power condensed into a giant palm, which slowly pressed down, shaking the entire universe.

In the eyes of all living beings on earth, it seemed as if the sky had collapsed and the sacred mountain was pressing down.

With this palm strike, a sharp buzzing sound was heard, and a cloud of dark purple mist exploded.

Russell did not stop there. His body erupted with surging blood energy once again. In a golden haze, his incomparably powerful fist intent merged with the purest and strongest stellar energy. Following the cause and effect, he tracked and captured a wisp of aura, transcending time and space, and unleashed a fierce punch.

With this punch, all tangible and intangible matter was shattered into incredibly tiny particles.

With this punch, at the Styx Academy, billions of light-years away from Earth, from Zhi Xin's perspective, the elegant scholar who was sitting at his desk suddenly changed his expression and stood up. Before she could ask for the reason, she saw Karl's whole body burst into flames and be burned to ashes in an instant.

At the same moment, Death Song Academy collapsed completely, turning into ruins.

"This is... cause and effect? ​​And the power of the sun."

As the smoke and dust cleared, Karl's form reformed.

He tried clenching his fist, and surprisingly, he felt pain from the punch, even though he had already upgraded to a phantom form.

“I underestimated you, Erlang Shen.” Karl’s expression was neither sad nor happy, his gaze looking down as if he were meeting Russell’s gaze on Earth: “We have a long way to go.”
