All the women in the apocalypse are mine

A huge shadow suddenly appeared, and the Star Favorites below the city wall slowly raised their heads, letting out terrified cries.

The giant centipede's menacing, black hole-like opening easily crossed the height of the city wall and appeared above their heads, seemingly mocking the humans below.

"boom!"

The soldiers guarding the city naturally spotted the terrifying creature immediately and turned their roaring cannons around.

However, the powerful cannonballs that landed on the giant centipede had absolutely no effect, except to slightly repel it.

"Give it to me."

The platinum star soared high, shining as brightly as the rising sun.

Now that I have nothing to worry about, let me fight you properly...

Xu tide looked at the ferocious giant centipede above and slowly said to herself.

"It's over... how could there be such a huge thing..." the Star-Cherishers maintaining the city walls stammered. "We have to run, the walls definitely won't hold..."

Their voices stopped abruptly, their wide eyes staring blankly at the shadow above, then their mouths agape.

The Platinum Star, swimming upstream against the terrifying creature, seemed oblivious to the oppressive aura of the giant centipede and directly grabbed the constantly wriggling tentacles on its head.

Despite being incredibly small, humans managed to lift the giant centipede and slam it into the ground just before it could destroy the city wall. What followed was a relentless and insane barrage of blows.

For a moment, all that could be heard was the roar of the giant centipede and the buzzing sound from the earth.

"Huh? What's this?"

Ye Xinglu took a slight step back, and a drop of viscous liquid suddenly fell onto the spot where he had just been standing.

It looks... like the blood of a void creature.

The True Spirit Pearl emitted a faint halo that enveloped the girls around it, because... the blood of the void creatures was falling from the sky like a continuous drizzle.

Looking up slightly, Ye Xinglu saw a streak of light flying and darting through the dark swarm of insects in mid-air!

Even with Ye Xingluo's keen eyesight, he could only vaguely discern that it was an ancient longsword with a hint of familiarity.

"It's Deputy Commander Yi! It's Deputy Commander Yi!"

Company Commander Li, standing to the side, looked at Yi Yuntian, who was sitting cross-legged at the highest point of the safe zone, and shouted excitedly.

In his eyes, it seemed that as long as Yi Yuntian was here, any evil creature would become a victim of his sword.

Indeed, this is the case. Countless, all-pervasive void creatures are frantically invading the newly built safe zone. Not to mention those on the ground, there are already quite a few flying insect swarms. Even with dense firepower, it is difficult to completely stop their invasion.

But... Yi Yuntian did it all by himself.

With just a longsword in his hand, he guarded the airspace of the safe zone, and no void creature could break through the sharp sword hovering above his head.

All void creatures that attempt to invade will meet the same fate: to be reduced to corpses and blood as they fall from the sky under the sword light, which is indistinguishable to the naked eye.

"Young friend Ye, all the Star Favorites have gone to various parts of the safe zone to defend it." Suddenly, Yi Yuntian's voice came from above. "I am the only one here, and I am a little overwhelmed. So, I'll leave the void creatures outside to you."

"Hey hey hey... I've only just arrived and I'm already being used as free labor." Ye Xinglu shrugged, but even as he said this, he was already walking towards the unhealed hole in the city wall. "Hey, don't bother fixing this hole, I need to get out of here~"

...

The manpower in the safe zone seemed extremely strained. Ye Xingluo took a closer look and saw that those guarding the area were mostly fully armed soldiers, conducting a carpet-bombing of the void creatures outside. Because the void creatures had hard shells, the clearing process was extremely slow.

Aside from the few who reinforced the city walls, Yi Yuntian was indeed the only one among the Star Favorites.

He not only had to deal with the insects in the air, but also had to keep an eye on the direction of the city wall from time to time, and provide support by flying on his sword when it was about to collapse, so as to prevent the city wall from collapsing and causing the unresisting survivors behind it to die in the mouthparts of the insects.

Originally, Yi Yuntian had planned to temporarily withdraw from this area, abandoning part of the safe zone, and better ensure the safety of the survivors by reducing the area he was guarding.

However, the timely arrival of Ye Xingluo and his group helped Yi Yuntian solve his immediate problem, allowing him to free up his hands to thoroughly deal with the swarm of insects in the air.

Yi Yuntian suddenly stood up, a sharp glint in his eyes.

He gazed at the clouds piling up in the sky and instantly pinpointed the source of the falling void creatures beneath them.

It was a sinister and twisted lair, like a constantly writhing purplish-red tumor hanging high in the sky, from which a continuous stream of void creatures were spewing forth.

This was none other than the Void Mother Nest, originating from a void rift and belonging to void creatures!

It was floating in the sky, like a giant spaceship invading from outer space, blotting out the sun.

"Sword Ascension to Immortality!"

Yi Yuntian suddenly shouted, and his sword finger swept across the flying sword. A faint golden light shimmered, as if he had plated the flying sword with a layer of gold leaf.

Then, the flying sword soared into the sky, its originally slender blade expanding in the wind, transforming into a colossal sword that could shake the heavens and the earth, flying towards the mother nest that was wandering in the air!

Wherever the flying sword passed, all the void creatures affected were evaporated in the blink of an eye.

The mother nest in the sky also seemed to sense a strong sense of crisis at this moment. Just as the giant sword was about to arrive, a strange purple beam of light shot out from its interior.

The power contained within made Ye Xinglu raise her head instantly.

He seemed to sense a familiar feeling from it.

...

Chapter 272 Repelling the Insect Attack

A sudden flutter of excitement swept through my heart.

Ye Xinglu looked at the Void Mother Nest in the sky. Suddenly, an eye opened on the nest, which resembled a purplish-red tumor. A familiar purple beam of light slowly crashed into the flying giant sword.

The unique aura of decomposition made Ye Xinglu realize instantly that there was a giant-eyed creature of the same kind in that mother nest.

Can Yi Yuntian's sword withstand this?

Night Star couldn't help but think.

The purple beam that could even disintegrate Saber's sword light into nothingness left a deep impression on Ye Xingluo; it seemed that nothing could remain unharmed under that purple beam.

Even though he was facing the Sword Immortal from his previous life, it was still unknown whether Yi Yuntian could withstand the purple disintegrating beam.

"Don't worry, Starfall." Saber suddenly appeared, cleaving the void creature that lunged at Night Starfall in two, and said softly, "That old man should be manageable."

"Oh? Saber, you have a lot of faith in him."

Nightfall was slightly surprised, as Saber was someone who knew the power of that purple beam even better than he did.

Even she said that, so it seems that Yi Yuntian left a deep impression on Saber before.

“Hmm, I always get a strange feeling from that old man’s sword.” Saber said after a moment of thought. “It seems that there is nothing that sword cannot destroy. That is the intention he mentioned before, the intention that belongs to that sword.”

As fellow swordsmen, Saber clearly has a deeper understanding of Yi Yuntian's sword control techniques than Ye Xingluo.

She gently raised her head, looking at the beams of light and the giant sword that were about to collide, and slowly spoke.

"In my opinion, I don't think that beam of light could affect the sword... because they are not even in the same dimension."

As Saber finished speaking, the purple ray of light capable of disintegrating everything finally made contact with the unstoppable flying sword.

Then, it began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Huh? Really?

Ye Xinglu looked up at the sky with some surprise. He could sense that before the beam of light was about to disintegrate the flying sword, a certain will contained within the sword had already destroyed the disintegrating beam.

Saber gazed at the flying sword above, a strange light flickering in her eyes. She picked up Excalibur and slowly thought to herself.

Aside from relying on the power of her Noble Phantasm, is she actually able to imbue her own will into the weapon in her hand?

...

In the air, the flying sword continued its momentum, bathed in the purple beam of light, and mercilessly pierced through the giant eye that suddenly opened on the mother nest, disappearing deep into the nest in the air.

However, the powerful defenses of the Void Nest, the place where void creatures are born, were somewhat beyond Yi Yuntian's expectations.

The giant sword that had disappeared into the nest swayed slightly with Yi Yuntian's sword finger, but it was as if it were trapped inside the nest and could not move at all.

Beads of sweat trickled down Yi Yuntian's pale temples, and his raised sword finger trembled slightly at that moment.

"The golden needle cracked!"

The old man took a deep breath, and his vigorous body suddenly tensed up, revealing the bulging veins on his arms.

Time seemed to freeze, like a flying sword stuck in the mud suddenly ceasing its struggle, entering a strange stalemate along with the mother nest in the sky.

However, this stalemate did not last long.

"Click..."

The faint cracking sound seemed to come from the mother nest in the sky, and a sword light as sharp as a golden needle suddenly burst out from the mother nest.

And this... is just the beginning.

Thousands of sword lights followed closely behind, shooting straight into the sky and piercing the Mother Nest and the dense black clouds, leaving them riddled with holes. For a moment, sunlight shone through the holes and descended once more upon this ravaged land.

"receive!"

With a soft shout from Yi Yuntian, the flying sword instantly shrank back to his side and hovered around him. The swarm of insects in the air seemed to be choking as their mother nest suffered a devastating blow. Their originally fierce and relentless attacks became chaotic and disorganized.

"The rest is up to you."

Yi Yuntian looked tired and muttered to himself.

...

After the Void Mother Nest was severely damaged, Nightfall could clearly sense some chaos among the surrounding Void creatures.

This might seem like good news for the survivor, but for him it made no difference.

When the gap in strength reaches a certain point, even quantity cannot make up for it.

Shubi flew in mid-air, expressionlessly clearing away the void creatures below.

Unlike the modern weapons used by the city's defenders, Shiro's weapons as a machine gun are overwhelmingly powerful.

Even continuous fire could hardly penetrate the shells of those void creatures, which seemed as fragile as paper in front of Shubi.

Saber naturally roams freely among the void creatures; with each swing of his longsword, the surrounding insects fall like wheat being harvested.

The only thing that could contend with Ye Xingluo and the others was the giant centipede, but it was currently being held back by Xu Xi and didn't need to be dealt with for the time being, so the henchmen on the side naturally suffered a great misfortune.

Soon, the Star-Cherishers who had been struggling to hold on below the city wall suddenly felt relieved, and the buzzing sound of the insect swarm coming from the other side of the wall seemed to have diminished considerably.

Could it be that... all the bugs outside have been dealt with?
