On the city wall, everyone's hearts tightened.

That solitary figure, before the doomsday-like Beast Tide, was so tiny it seemed as if he would be completely swallowed by the darkness in the next second.

"Can... can he really do it?"

A young professional's voice trembled as he clutched the longbow in his hand, his palms slick with cold sweat.

Next to him, an old soldier with a missing arm stared intently at that back, his voice hoarse as he replied, "I don't know."

"Now, we can only pray."

Li Gang stood by the battlements, his fists clenched, knuckles white from the excessive force.

He gazed at the man and the Dragon, as if looking at Donghai City's only spark.

With a storm approaching, would this spark be extinguished instantly, or would it ignite a prairie fire?

He didn't know.

He could only wait.

Meanwhile, on Demon Dragon Xiao Hei's back.

The strong wind carried a dense smell of blood and earth, almost suffocating.

Below, thousands of beasts surged forward, their combined roars and howls forming a terrifying sound wave that could tear eardrums.

"Grumble..."

"Roar—!"

"Hiss hiss!"

Countless pairs of crimson eyes converged into a sea of blood, locking onto him.

That pure, primitive killing intent, seeking to tear all living beings to shreds, was like tangible needles, frantically stimulating Zhou Huai's nerves.

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the tremor that originated from the depths of his Soul.

Zhou Huai, controlling Moria, slowly extended his right hand.

A small, ancient-looking, pitch-black seal floated quietly in his palm.

Zhen Tian Seal.

To block this destructive torrent before the Formation was complete, the only hope lay in this Divine Artifact.

He couldn't see the specific information of this Divine Artifact.

But the moment he obtained it, its usage was instinctively imprinted deep within his Soul.

Zhou Feng's death was still vivid in his mind.

Drained of his Origin by the Divine Artifact, even Advanced Life Potions couldn't save him.

It was an obliteration from the roots.

Zhou Huai didn't want to follow in his footsteps.

His consciousness quickly withdrew from Moria.

Silently, he transferred to Da Yi, who was in the corner of the city wall.

A Clone has no Soul, much less an Origin.

He also didn't know if he could activate the Zhen Tian Seal.

Zhou Huai could only try first.

Speaking of which, if it really worked.

Would the backlash from the Zhen Tian Seal still be effective?

Did this count as exploiting a bug in this Divine Artifact? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Just as Zhou Huai's thoughts raced.

On the Dragon's back, the AI-controlled Moria moved.

He expressionlessly raised his hand, pouring the immense mana within him, without reservation, into the black seal in his palm!

Buzz—!

A hum, as if from ancient primordial times, sounded without warning!

That «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» tiny black seal suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden light!

The light shot into the sky, instantly tearing through the dim night!

Under everyone's horrified gaze, a gigantic, unimaginably large golden seal phantom slowly condensed above Moria's head!

The phantom was hundreds of meters tall, like a majestic mountain suspended in the air!

Upon it, Dragons and Phoenixes were carved, and the ancient patterns were profoundly mysterious, every detail exuding a vast Divine Might that suppressed all ages and looked down on all beings!

Golden light shone, illuminating the entire dim earth as bright as day!

That supreme pressure, like the collapse of the heavens, instantly enveloped an area of dozens of miles!

At this moment, on the city wall.

Everyone gaped in astonishment, even forgetting to breathe.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

Countless professionals' legs gave way, and they involuntarily knelt on the ground.

They weren't afraid, but in the face of that almost divine Aura, their bodies instinctively adopted a posture of submission.

"Wh... what is that thing?"

A guild leader slumped to the ground, his voice trembling, his face filled with horror.

"I... I don't know... This Aura... it's too terrifying!"

"Is... is this his skill?"

"Impossible! How low is his Rank? How could he possess such terrifying skill power?"

"Perhaps it's a life-saving trump card his Family left him."

No one present had the concept of a "Divine Artifact" in their minds.

They never dreamed that in their lifetime, a Divine Artifact would be displayed before them.

They could only use their limited understanding to speculate about the Origin of the giant golden seal.

It wasn't just them.

Even Li Gang was frozen in place at this moment.

He stared blankly at the sky, his usually steady face, for the first time, showing confusion and shock.

He couldn't describe his feelings at this moment.

It was a sense of insignificance and awe, stemming from the heart, when facing the unknown, facing an incomprehensible great power.

Not just Li Gang.

Even Zhou Huai himself was shocked by the effect of the Zhen Tian Seal.

The effect when used by Zhou Feng and the effect when used by Moria were simply incomparable.

Indeed.

Divine Artifacts are only for the strong!

The next second.

In that golden Divine Light, amidst the roars of thousands of beasts.

A cold, emotionless word was softly uttered from Moria's mouth on the Dragon's back.

"Suppress."

The voice was not loud, but it was as if words became Law, carrying the supreme Law of heaven and earth!

Boom—!!!

The moment the words fell, the gigantic golden seal phantom in the sky suddenly trembled!

A visible golden ripple, centered on the seal, spread out wildly in all directions like a tsunami!

That golden energy wave instantly crossed a great distance, slamming into the surging black Beast Tide!

The moment of impact, there was no earth-shattering explosion.

Only a continuous, ear-splitting "crunching" sound of bones being crushed!

Leading the charge were tens of thousands of bloodthirsty demonic wolves and giant rhinos.

They were the vanguard of the Beast Tide, the heavy cavalry responsible for piercing through all defenses.

However, the moment they touched the golden ripple.

Their forward momentum came to an abrupt halt!

It was as if a surging torrent had slammed into an invisible, indestructible dam!

Immediately after, a scene that made everyone's scalp tingle occurred!

The thick armor on the massive, incredibly defensive giant rhinos instantly cracked like a spiderweb, as if made of paper!

"Moo—!"

They let out an agonizing wail, their massive bodies forced to their knees by an irresistible and terrifying power!

The earth, at this moment, collapsed downwards!

Their limbs, their spines, shattered inch by inch under that terrifying suppressive force!

Finally, their massive bodies were forcibly pressed into the ground, turning into pools of indistinct flesh and blood!

The fate of the bloodthirsty demonic wolves was even more tragic.

They didn't even have time to let out a howl before their bodies exploded into clouds of blood mist, as if struck by an invisible giant hammer!

The golden ripple continued to spread!

Wherever it passed, no matter what kind of exotic beast, no matter its Rank, all were suppressed by that vast imperial might!

The charging Beast Tide, as if paused, came to a grinding halt!

The earth-shattering roars turned into agonizing wails.

That destructive Aura crumbled under the Divine Might of the Zhen Tian Seal!

What made the people on the city wall even more incredulous was that.

They could clearly feel that the Aura of the suppressed exotic beasts was rapidly decaying at a terrifying speed!

The terrifying exotic beasts, whose average Rank was above forty, now had their Aura plummeting to Rank twenty or so!

Some were even below Rank twenty!

Just one strike!

Just one word!

It suppressed the vanguard army, which was at the forefront, on the spot!
