I started by slashing through the enemy's territory, and I drew so many affixes that my hands w

The atmosphere was solemn on the city walls of Dongxing Base City.

The cannons are fully charged and will be ready to attack as soon as the beast horde gets close enough to slow down their advance.

Qiu Jie is in charge of the administrative affairs of the base city.

Chen Xiaohu was mainly responsible for killing those fourth-tier ferocious beasts, while the main defense against the beast tide fell to Luo Jun, the head of the military department, since large-scale warfare was the forte of officers.

Luo Jun stood on the city wall, directing his men.

"The main force of this beast tide consists of Crimson-tailed Fire Bulls, Thunderbirds, and Black-toothed Rats. Unlike last time, we must not let them get close to the city walls! Otherwise, your parents, your children, and your kin behind the walls will all be in dire straits! Even if we all perish in battle, we must keep these beasts outside the city walls!"

Whether it's the Red-tailed Fire Bull's unique destructiveness, the Black Fang Rat's ability to burrow underground, or the Thunderbird's flying advantage.

The city walls were useless against them, and could not stop them at all.

Therefore, we must never let the beast tide get close; if they do, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Squads of soldiers quickly left the city, racing against time to operate the machines and dig trenches.

Even if this gap is nothing more than a few dead beasts filling the gap for the beast tide, it would be enough to buy even ten seconds of time.

Meanwhile, drones flew a kilometer away and frantically sprayed gasoline on the ground.

Fire has limited effect on ferocious beasts, but it can cause chaos in the beast tide and delay their advance.

There are also some preparations underway to deal with the ferocious beasts.

Everything proceeded smoothly and in an orderly manner.

Jiang Qin, who witnessed all this from mid-air, frowned slightly.

Because the soldiers and warriors on the city wall are too weak. Not to mention the combat power of the high-level officers in the base city, among the soldiers below, those who can guide spirits are already outstanding, and those who can reach the Spirit Sea Realm are extremely rare. Most of them are ordinary people.

The total number of martial artists does not exceed three hundred.

A mere few hundred people were forced to withstand a beast tide of tens of thousands of ferocious beasts. No matter how much preparation they made, he believed it was a battle they were destined to lose, with no chance of winning whatsoever.

At this moment, even ordinary people in the city could hear the earth-shattering roar of the beast!

"roar--!"

Thousands of Thunderbirds are flying towards the city, and since they don't need to cross the cover, they are at the forefront.

Jiang Qin originally wanted to watch the battle for a while, but after seeing the configuration of the city's garrison, he shook his head in disappointment and slipped to Luo Jun's side, who was giving orders.

When Luo Jun saw Jiang Qin, he instinctively wanted to salute.

"Commander Jiang, you..."

"Have your men withdraw; they can't hold out."

"But……"

"Order them to withdraw. That's an order."

Luo Jun didn't understand what Jiang Qin was trying to do, and he felt a little dissatisfied. Now was a critical moment for the city's survival, and even the base commander had never interfered in war command before.

But then he remembered what he had witnessed on the island, and inexplicably, he sent a signal to the soldiers outside the city.

"Retreat back into the city!"

The soldiers were puzzled, but they still obeyed orders and returned to the city.

The soldiers on the city wall looked puzzled.

All eyes were on Jiang Qin. He didn't explain anything, but instead took a step out and stood dozens of meters in the air, slowly extending a hand.

In an instant, countless bolts of lightning energy converged.

Although his Dharma form was absorbed by the Cangling Sword, he could still use the [Thunder Lord's Control] ability, which did not have much impact on his combat power.

Within moments, thunderclouds gathered over Dongxing Base City, accompanied by deafening rumbles of thunder.

Countless energies are converging in Jiang Qin's hands, forming one collapse explosion after another.

At the highest point of the city wall, Chen Xiaohu gazed at the figure surrounded by lightning not far away, his tone filled with emotion: "It's been so long since I've seen this move. Every time I witness it, my heart races. It seems we don't need to intervene this time."

Qiu Jie looked puzzled: "That was... a collapse? What is he trying to do?"

"This is a move created by the boss himself," Chen Xiaohu explained casually. "It combines the power of several collapses. This move is called 'Nuclear Explosion.' The boss used this move to level an entire canyon."

"One move, flatten the canyon? Are you kidding me...?"

Qiu Jie looked incredulous.

According to the description, this is powerful enough to change the landscape. Is this really something a martial artist in the Divine Manifestation Realm can do?

Chen Xiaohu thought for a moment and nodded to correct him, "There are definitely changes compared to now. Back then, our boss had just broken through to the Divine Manifestation Realm, but now he is at the peak of the Divine Manifestation Realm, a half-step Earth Martial Realm. I'm afraid his power will only be more astonishing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the beast tide was less than a kilometer away from the city wall.

Even the ground was shaking.

Jiang Qin's nuclear explosion was also fully formed. With a slight flick of his fingertips, he launched it out.

"go!"

The nuclear explosion, enveloped in boundless thunderous energy, flew out at an extremely high speed, and in the blink of an eye, only a glimmer of light could be seen.

Meanwhile, the flock of Thunderbirds had already rushed close and were about to attack Jiang Qin.

The Cangling Sword hanging at Jiang Qin's waist trembled slightly, as if it were consciously drawn from its sheath, unleashing a series of sharp slashes, as if an invisible person were wielding the sword.

A series of slashes erupted, their power boundless.

Soon everyone saw that the Thunderbirds flying in the sky were attacked, their bodies were cut in two as if by a sharp weapon, blood splattered, and they fell to the ground one by one like raindrops, their remains oozing blood.

The silent and invisible attack prevented them from even uttering a scream.

Meanwhile, the nuclear explosion had reached the center of the beast tide. As the collapse was triggered, the lightning energy that maintained the outer shell also dissipated instantly.

A dazzling burst of lightning erupted!

"boom--!!!"

An earth-shaking explosion swept in, and the lightning blinded everyone, causing them to instinctively close their eyes.

They had only one question in their minds: "What happened?"

When the aftershocks of the impact dissipated, everyone opened their eyes and discovered that the land not far away had already been stained red with blood. The surging beast tide was now reduced to a few hundred scattered beasts howling in fear. As for the rest, they had long been annihilated by the lightning, leaving not even a corpse behind.

The dense, enormous footprints behind them were the only evidence that they had been there.

The beast tide of tens of thousands crumbled in a single move.

Looking at Jiang Qin, he was still standing in mid-air, showing no signs of weakness.

It seems there was no consumption at all.

Qiu Jie finally understood why Director Yue had appointed that person to lead the industry.

Because Jiang Qin has absolute dominance over martial artists and ferocious beasts of the same realm, no matter how many there are, they are meaningless in front of him. Can one person stop an army of ten thousand? No, one person can sweep through the circle!

Her eyes became fervent.

If we possess such power, perhaps there's a chance to restore order within the circle... No! Absolutely no problem!

The soldiers' faces were filled with admiration, their eyes burning with fervor.

They had prepared themselves to die, but now they don't have to. And—they probably won't have to worry about the city walls being breached in the future. With such a presence guarding the walls, they feel a great sense of security.

Jiang Qin returned to the city wall and turned to Luo Jun, instructing him:

"Send the soldiers out of the city to kill the remaining ferocious beasts, and we'll go back to the meeting."

"I'm becoming increasingly interested in the situation back home..."
