At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier.

Chapter 70 You hunters are surrounded by our combat team

Rumble, rumble——

The rocket struck the tan barrier and exploded, the flames instantly engulfing an area with a diameter of twenty meters.

Yu Chengyue's eyes widened, filled with eagerness. This extraordinary power, which resembled divine magic, was simply unbelievable.

He still remembered how those old guys from various Taoist sects insisted on claiming that this power was some kind of magical technique from their own lineage when they saw it.

But what's laughable is that after those shameless old guys received the 'Source Awakening' from their leader, very few of them actually awakened their willpower. It just goes to show what kind of trash they are. Heh.

As the flames from the explosion subsided, an undamaged, earthen-yellow barrier was revealed, which gradually faded and disappeared.

"Hoo~" Tao Jing took a deep breath, her hands covered in rock elemental power: "Ha!" She punched the training wall in front of her with military boxing.

Fists made of rock elements came out from the two fists, smashing into the steel wall and leaving three-centimeter-deep fist marks.

"Haaah, haaah... I've used up all my elemental power." Tao Jing straightened up, and the 'Eye of God' at her waist dimmed. The service robot dog next to her walked over, and Tao Jing picked up the special nutrient solution and towel from the robot dog. While wiping the sweat from her forehead, she gulped down the entire bottle of nutrient solution.

"Wow, Tao Jing, you're amazing! It's only been a few days, and you've already made me feel ashamed," Yu Chengyue exclaimed in admiration.

"Mr. Yu, I must seize every moment to become stronger and strengthen the elemental power within my body." Tao Jing turned around, her expression full of a soldier's determination.

“The events that just happened in Britain are still fresh in our minds, and their national system is on the verge of collapse in the great catastrophe.”

"Human medical methods are completely useless against those terrifying mantle spores; only the extraordinary can fight against the extraordinary." As she said this, Tao Jing took off the 'Eye of God' from her waist and looked at it.

"Only extraordinary powers like elemental forces can eliminate mantle spores."

"And I am currently the only person in Xia Kingdom who can use elemental power."

Yu Chengyue, with his hands behind his back, said, "Don't be too stressed. The Academy of Sciences has already started cultivating a large number of plants infected by elemental power, hasn't it? They've already made a detoxification device and captured so many elemental slimes. As long as it's not a large-scale outbreak, the people in a few cities can still handle it."

Tao Jing shook her head: "But the number of elemental creatures like slimes is still too small; they are still a non-renewable resource."

"Ah, if only I could also enter the path of immortal runes and achieve enlightenment. Although I'm about to enter my coffin, I hope to die sacrificing myself for the people." Yu Chengyue sighed. A hero grows old, a hero grows old, and one has to admit that one is getting old.

"Hey! Mr. Yu, your forehead..." Tao Jing pointed to Yu Chengyue's forehead in surprise.

"What's wrong with my forehead? Did I not wash my face properly?" Yu Chengyue raised his hand to touch his forehead, and then froze.

The image of the 'Enlightenment Tree Visualization Diagram' appeared in my mind, and at this moment, the Enlightenment Tree in the visualization diagram seemed to come alive in my mind.

He seemed to be standing right beneath the Enlightenment Tree, gazing up at this enormous, ancient silver tree.

hum~
In that instant, he felt a connection with the Enlightenment Tree, and an invisible channel transmitted energy called 'Elemental Force' into his body.

A warm current filled my limbs and bones.

Call ~
The faint red lines on Yu Chengyue's forehead became clear instantly, and as he exhaled, flames shot out of his mouth.

“I have entered the Dao…” Yu Chengyue’s body trembled. He raised his hands, and his trembling hands emitted a red halo. He subconsciously gathered the warm current in his body into his palms, and with a whoosh, a cluster of crimson flames appeared in his palms.

"I've entered the Dao! I've entered the Dao!" Yu Chengyue cried tears of joy, tears streaming from his eyes. It was the thing he had pursued his whole life.

"I, I, am finally able to truly protect the people in the face of those monsters."

Tao Jing is right. Only the extraordinary can fight against the extraordinary. Awakening of the source is just the beginning. Beginner-level extraordinary individuals cannot fight against strange things like mantle vine spores.

Los Saint stood in front of the two of them, but they could not see or sense him at all.

"Not bad. To be able to awaken your abilities in just a few days shows you have a heart of justice. In that case, then carry on your manly beliefs to the end. You're just old, not dead." Luo Sheng said calmly, looking at Tao Jing and nodding. "You haven't disappointed me. You've already developed the Eye of God to the initial stage, but developing it to the middle stage is a long way off for your current beliefs."

Tao Jing can currently only be considered a near-elite holder of the Eye of God, a semi-elite. She can easily defeat the super-genetic Devouring Beasts, while the mutated Devouring Beasts are evenly matched.

Just then, a piercing alarm sounded.

Woo——woo——woo——

Tao Jing and Yu Chengyue's expressions changed. Tao Jing rushed to the equipment room and put on her combat uniform in a few seconds, while Yu Chengyue dashed towards the assembly point.

[All combat personnel, assemble at the defensive point immediately! An unusual energy fluctuation has been detected one kilometer to the left of the military base; it is a Devouring Beast.]

Satellite images show a total of 26 Devouring Beasts, along with unknown personnel and mechanical equipment.

[Combat personnel, take immediate action! Armed drones and armed helicopters, commence operations immediately!]

"Oh, as expected, it's the Hunters, and two Gravity Bodies, a total of four people, two men and two women. Oh well, they're not much of a threat anyway, let Xia Kingdom take advantage of this." Luo Sheng instantly recognized the people who had just appeared and fallen.

"Perhaps in just a few days we'll see the Xia Kingdom's combat teams all using gravity-based vehicles to slay Devouring Beasts."

He wasn't too interested in ordinary people, even though they were all familiar figures to him.

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "People who have come from the apocalyptic world will probably be dazzled by this prosperous world and forget about their homeland."

the other side.

In the mountains a kilometer from the military base, roars and machine gun fire filled the air.

"Where am I? Suddenly I lost my footing and landed hard on my butt! It hurt so much!" A somewhat childish girl's voice came from an armored gravity body, filled with fear. The gravity body held a heavy Gatling gun and kept firing at the pack of snake dogs that surrounded them.

"Go to hell, you ugly monsters!"

Da da da da——

A torrent of bullets rained down on the snake-dog in front of him, quickly riddling it with holes. The snake-dog lost its senses and went limp, but it didn't die.

"Erica! Don't get excited, look around!" A deep, middle-aged man's voice came from another exo-armored gravity body.

"Green plants! And this unbelievably clear blue sky! Something's not right, something's not right, where are we?"

"Jeff! What just happened! Did you notice anything? What just happened?!" A young man holding a heavy machine gun asked anxiously as he fired at the Snake Dog.

"A hallucination? Did we unknowingly inhale too much scarlet?"

"Look over there! To the southeast!" Another tall, masked woman holding a heavy sniper rifle said, looking southeast.

"what?"

The sound of propellers grew louder as they approached, and they saw more than a dozen large aircraft flying toward them, followed by a large number of smaller aircraft.

These aircraft have large machine gun muzzles, and they look like they're not to be trifled with.

"That's an aircraft! How is that possible!" Jeff stared incredulously at the aircraft approaching from afar.

[Attention, unknown personnel below! We are a special operations force from the Xia Kingdom. Please remain where you are and do not interfere with our operations.]

We will have professionals to receive you, provided you lay down your weapons and do not harbor any ill will towards us; otherwise, we will consider you our enemies.
