I can receive unlimited protection; my parents handed me over to the state.

"The first one! We've taken down our first Lord-level Star Beast!" Su Lie's face was flushed, and his fists were clenched tightly.

Although it was only a quarter of the victory, this start undoubtedly gave all the spectators a shot in the arm!

"Bai Ling!"

After landing a successful attack, Yan Ji immediately withdrew and caught the frail girl who was falling from the sky due to exhaustion of her mental energy.

"I...I'm fine..." Bai Ling's face was as pale as a sheet of paper, but her eyes shone with an unprecedented light.

She did it!

She truly created an opportunity for her teammates with her own strength and defeated a terrifying lord-level being!

This immense sense of accomplishment made her forget the excruciating pain that felt like her soul was being torn apart.

"Well done." A hint of approval appeared on Tang Long's usually stern face.

However, the situation on the battlefield did not allow them a moment's respite.

Although they successfully defeated one lord, the other three battlefields were locked in a stalemate, or even at a complete disadvantage!

Western battlefield

"BOOM!!"

The overturned Xuanwu Dragon Turtle suddenly retracted all four limbs and its head into its shell! Immediately afterwards, its huge shell began to spin rapidly like a top!

"Not good! Get out of the way!" Gu Tianye's expression changed drastically.

But it was too late!

"Black Tortoise Secret Technique: Death Roll!"

"Whoosh—!!"

The enormous tortoise shell, resembling a moving island, transformed into an unstoppable meteor of death, hurtling towards Xiang Batian and Gu Tianye with the force to crush everything in its path!

"Damn it! Let's fight it!"

Xiang Batian roared and held the [Heaven-Opening Titan Axe] horizontally in front of him, attempting to take the hit head-on!

"boom!!"

With a deafening crash, Xiang Batian's two-hundred-meter-tall Titan form was sent flying like a ball hit by a speeding train! He almost dropped his giant axe!

"Pfft!" A mouthful of dark golden blood gushed from his mouth! With just one strike, he was severely injured!

Gu Tianye was also grazed, and his Chaos Devourer form was almost shattered. He tumbled several times in the air before regaining his footing, looking horrified.

This turtle shell is so hard!

Northern battlefield

"Pfft!"

Ye Cang's [Asura] finally seized the fleeting opening created by Liu Wuhen! A blood-red blade of light flashed like lightning!

The nine heads of the Hydra were severed instantly!

"It worked?!" Liu Wuhen's face lit up with joy.

"No...not yet!" Ye Cang's expression turned extremely solemn.

The nine severed snake heads melted instantly upon falling into the filthy sea below, and then grew back on Hydra's neck at an even faster pace! Moreover, the newly grown snake heads possessed an even more ferocious aura than before!

"Damn it! Its regenerative core is connected to this sea of ​​corruption!" the sorcerer rasped. "As long as this sea doesn't dry up, it's immortal!"

Southern battlefield

Mu Bingli and Chi Lian also encountered trouble.

Their ice and fire elemental storms inflicted tremendous damage on the mud monster Shoggoth, but the creature seemed to have no limit to its size! While a portion of its body was being evaporated by the ice and fire storms, it frantically drew energy and matter from the filthy sea below to replenish itself!

With one side gaining and the other losing, Mu Bingli and Chi Lian's energy is being rapidly depleted!

"This can't go on!" Fine beads of sweat appeared on Lin Ziling's forehead. "It'll drain our energy completely!"

On the flagship's throne, Amphitrite looked at the three armies locked in a fierce battle, and a cold smile once again curled at the corner of her lips.

"Do you see? Humble land creatures. How laughable and powerless your struggles are before the boundless ocean. This is the power bestowed upon me by the gods—the power of domain!"

From the very beginning, she never expected these four guardian deities to defeat these monsters wielding divine artifacts single-handedly. Her goal was to use this [Deep Sea Filth Domain], which she had created herself, to slowly wear them down!

Within this realm, her legions are immortal! Her guardian spirits are indestructible! And the enemy, through endless attrition, will slowly succumb to death!

"Damn it! We've fallen into their trap!" In the command post, Su Lie slammed his fist hard on the table.

He also realized that the key to the problem wasn't the three lords, but the dark green ocean that covered the entire battlefield! As long as they couldn't break through this domain, they had no chance of winning!

"Is there any way to purify this sea area?!" Dean Qian Sen shouted anxiously to the researchers around him.

"No, Dean! This kind of pollution at the rule level is beyond the scope of our current technology! Unless... unless there is a rule-based power of equal level to neutralize it!"

Despair. A deep sense of despair enveloped everyone's hearts.

Just then, Lu Yuan, who had been clearing away the endless stream of miscellaneous soldiers in the rear, suddenly raised his head. His gaze seemed to pierce through endless space, looking towards the vast inland land of China.

"They should be here by now, shouldn't they?" he murmured softly.

As if in response to his call, three distinct yet equally powerful and terrifying auras suddenly shot into the sky from the west, south, and central directions of China!

"What kind of monster dares to act so presumptuously in the East China Sea?!"

A deep, ancient voice, like the resounding toll of a bell, rolled in from the distant Pamir Plateau in the west!

With this roar, the sky above the East China Sea battlefield changed color! The sky turned a yellowish-brown color at a speed visible to the naked eye! A huge phantom mountain made of endless rocks and earth elements appeared out of thin air! Then, with supreme power to suppress everything, it crashed down on the blackish-green filthy sea below!

"BOOM—!!!"

The two most primal forces of earth and sea collided with a deafening roar! The entire East China Sea seemed to boil, churning violently! That seemingly unshakeable [Deep Sea Filth Domain] was actually smashed into a huge hole by this "Mount Tai pressing down"!

"Zhenshan...it's Senior Zhenshan!" Li Qingcang exclaimed excitedly as he looked at the majestic phantom of the mountain range!

Xu Changqing, the "Mountain Guardian"! Guardian of the Western Border of China! SSS-level Star Envoy! A legendary figure with over a century of history, a monster from the same era as Su Lie! His SSS-level talent, "Immovable King," grants him unparalleled divine power to manipulate the earth and gravity!

"Hehe... How could I miss out on such a lively scene?"

A woman's voice, carrying a hint of languor and allure, suddenly rang out from the shadows of the battlefield.

Immediately afterward, everyone saw that Hydra, the nine-headed hydra that had been frantically chasing Ye Cang and Liu Wuhen, suddenly froze. From the shadow cast by its body beneath its feet, nine eerie hands made of pure dark energy slowly emerged and gripped its nine shadows tightly!

"Shadowlands: Soul Binding Technique!"

Hydra's massive body was frozen in place, unable to move!

A mysterious woman, dressed in a black, tight-fitting leather outfit, with an extremely voluptuous figure and a half-silver mask on her face, slowly emerged from the shadows.

"'Ghost Shadow'! It's Ghost Shadow, the supreme commander of the Southern Border's 'Dark Force'!"

Another legendary SSS-class Star Envoy has arrived!

However, that's not all!

"Beep beep beep! Ultra-high-specification energy reaction detected! Space jump in progress!"

"Coordinates locked! Directly above the battlefield!"

The command center's radar emitted a piercing alarm! Everyone instinctively looked up.

Ten thousand meters above the ground, a massive spatial rift slowly opened. A colossal mech, five hundred meters tall, crafted entirely from an unknown silver-white metal, and brimming with futuristic and violent aesthetics, stepped out of the rift!

On the chest of the mecha, in the cockpit area, stood a short-haired woman in a white pilot's suit, a confident smile playing on her lips.

"The 'Tian Shu' combat group, directly under the Central Academy of Sciences, is coming to provide support!"

"I am Gundam!"

She pressed a red button. The massive, silver-white mech's eyes suddenly glowed red! Countless missile launchers extended from its shoulders and back, aimed at the endless tidal legion below!

"Full range launch!!"

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM—!!"

In an instant, thousands of flames turned the entire sky white!

The hymn of humanity is a hymn of courage!

At this most critical moment, China has revealed all its hidden trump cards! Three top-tier SSS-level star envoys have crossed mountains and rivers to arrive together! With their actions, they have sent the strongest message from humanity to the lofty "Goddess"!

Those who offend China, no matter how far away, will be punished!

Chapter 45: Powerful Reinforcements Arrive! The Moment the Battle Turns!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sky was torn apart, the earth roared, and the ocean churned.

The three newly arrived SSS-level Star Envoys unleashed their strongest killing moves without holding back whatsoever! Senior Zhenshan's "Mount Tai Pressing Down" was like divine punishment, Ghost Shadow's unpredictable "Soul Binding Technique" was unpredictable, and Tian Shu's "All-Out Attack" covered the entire sky!

In the most direct and violent way, they announced the arrival of mankind to the arrogant Queen of Atlantis!

"This...this is impossible!"

On the flagship's throne, Amphitrite's usually impassive face revealed, for the first time, an expression of shock and disbelief.

She couldn't understand! Based on Atlantis's secret observation and intelligence gathering of this planet over the past ten thousand years, although the "terrestrial species" on this planet had made some negligible progress in technology, they should have completely declined in terms of individual strength!

Apart from that old guy named "Su Lie" who is stationed in the northern border, and some insignificant S-class individuals, this civilization is simply incapable of producing any more top-tier powerhouses who can rival "gods"!

But what's with these three guys who suddenly appeared?! One can manipulate the earth and shake the ocean! One can lurk in the shadows and bind souls! And the other wields a massive war machine that even she feels a slight threat from!

Each of these three people is just as powerful as her!

Intelligence! The intelligence contains a fatal error!

"boom!"

Just as Amphitrite was shaken to her core, the filthy sea below, which had been violently churning from the "Mount Tai Pressing Down" strike by the Mountain-Suppressing Senior, suddenly exploded once more!

This time, it was Xiang Batian who made the move!

"Hahaha! Well done, senior! Watch me!"

His Titan form, which had been nearly shattered by the Xuanwu Dragon Turtle, had now recovered to about 70-80%! He held the [Heaven-Opening Titan Axe] high, and the dark golden axe blade was filled with terrifying power capable of splitting stars!

"Furu Amano! Now!"

"They're here!"

Gu Tianye, who had been poised to strike, once again transformed into the ferocious Chaos Devourer. He opened his massive maw and spewed out a torrent of violent energy composed of dozens of beast soul powers at the Xuanwu Dragon Turtle, which was still spinning at high speed!

"Night Parade of Beasts - Mixed Roar!"

This torrent of energy did not directly attack the dragon turtle, but instead struck the side of the dragon turtle as it was spinning!

"Bang!"

The rapidly spinning dragon turtle was thrown off balance by the enormous lateral impact, revealing an extremely tiny opening!

Xiang Batian had been waiting for this very flaw!

"Die, you bastard!"

"The Axe That Creates Heaven - Annihilation!"

"Whoosh—!"

A dark golden axe-like light flashed and disappeared! Where the axe-like light passed, even space itself was left with a pitch-black crack!

"Snap!!!"

A shattering sound, crisper than any before, resounded throughout the entire battlefield!

The Xuanwu Dragon Turtle's shell, which was known as "absolute defense" and could not be shaken even by divine artifacts, was actually cleaved in two by Xiang Batian's full-force axe strike, which seized an opening!

"roar……"

The dragon turtle let out a mournful cry filled with resentment and pain, and its immense vitality vanished rapidly like a flood breaking through a dam.

The second, a Lord-level Star Beast, has fallen!

"Well done!!" The Mountain-Suppressing Elder, who had just emerged from the spatial rift, clapped his hands and laughed heartily, his voice booming like thunder. "Hahaha! Old Su, you've finally trained a few decent youngsters!"

On the other side, the Hydra, which was frozen in place by the ghost's "Soul Binding Technique," also met its end.

"Now! Ye Cang!" Liu Wuhen, who had been waiting for an opportunity, shouted sharply, his hands clasped together abruptly, "Spatial Mystic Art - Dimensional Exile!"

"Buzz!"

Nine small spatial portals, radiating a silver glow, appeared precisely beneath Hydra's nine recently reborn snake heads!

"Asura Path - Avici Hell!"

Ye Cang's figure transformed into a streak of crimson lightning! The [Asura] in his hand seemed to come alive in that instant, the crimson patterns on the blade shining brightly!

"Swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish!"

Nine streaks of light, too fast for the naked eye to follow, flashed simultaneously! Hydra's nine heads were once again severed in unison!

This time, however, they had no chance to fall into the filthy sea below! The moment they were severed, they were swallowed up by the nine spatial gates that had been waiting for them, and banished to the unknown dimensional rift!

"roar--!!"

Having lost all its heads, the Hydra's enormous headless body writhed wildly, but without the "Nine Souls in One" characteristic, its regenerative ability was completely ineffective! Finally, with a roar of unwillingness, it crashed down and turned into countless specks of light.

The third, a Lord-level Star Beast, has fallen!

"Tsk, not bad teamwork." Ghost Shadow watched this scene and let out a lazy chuckle. Her eyes held a hint of appreciation for Ye Cang's worthy opponent. As a top-tier assassin, she could sense the pure and extreme killing intent emanating from Ye Cang.

Only one left! That most troublesome mud monster, Shoggoth!

At this moment, it is being suppressed by the combined efforts of Mu Bingli, Chi Lian, and Lin Ziling, but thanks to the constant replenishment from the filthy sea below, it remains vigorous and lively.

"Tian Shu! Help them out!" Su Lie shouted from the command post.

"receive!"

High in the sky, the massive, silver-white mech slowly opened its main cannon. A terrifying, chilling energy began to rapidly gather at the cannon's muzzle!

"Space-based railgun - 'Judgment' mode, charging begins!"

"Thirty percent...seventy percent...one hundred percent!"

"Target locked!"

"Fire!"

"call out--!!"
