"Quick! Maximum level defense!!"

"Charge all Magical Cannons! I don't care how many die, just shatter that mountain for me! Don't let it fall!"

In the defensive bunkers below, the commander of the Great Xia Military Department had bloodshot eyes, roaring desperately and recklessly!

Accompanied by the rapid clanking of mechanical gears and the roar of energy pumps!

Hundreds of heavy Magical Cannons, deployed at various high points in the city and hidden between buildings, quickly turned their muzzles under radar lock!

"Fire!!!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Over a hundred thick, azure high-energy beams rose from the ground with ear-piercing shrieks!

These pillars of destruction, representing the pinnacle of Great Xia's fusion of technology and magic, wove into an airtight net of death in mid-air, slamming fiercely into the base of the rapidly falling earthen mountain!

The power of these heavy Magical Cannons was terrifying; normally, even in an S-rank beast tide, a single shot could vaporize a beast dozens of meters tall!

However!

When these azure high-energy beams slammed into the earthen mountain!

The expected scene of collapsing boulders and a shattering mountain did not appear!

"Bang! Bang! Rumble—!"

Violent explosions rang out in succession in mid-air, kicking up fireballs over a hundred meters in diameter and filling the sky with dust!

But when the dust was slightly scattered by the downward gale, the hearts of all the Great Xia soldiers looking up sank to the bottom!

That mountain had only lost some peripheral rubble and soil to the terrifying heat of the Magical Cannons!

Its massive main structure, under the powerful blessing of the dark yellow Earth Law, had its internal density compressed to an unbelievable degree, making it even more unbreakable than the hardest alloy in the world!

This powerful volley of Magical Cannons, enough to destroy a modern aircraft carrier fleet, actually failed to completely destroy it!

"Damn it! The density of that mountain isn't right! That's rock forcibly compressed by an Advanced Law!"

Seeing this, Lin Zhu's originally fair face lost all its color.

Gritting her teeth, she hurriedly controlled countless thick mutated vines from below to surge into the sky, attempting to form a giant green shock-absorbing net in mid-air to forcibly catch the falling mountain!

"Hold it—!" Lin Zhu shouted angrily.

"Pfft—!"

However, those incredibly tough vines, which could even strangle S-rank beasts, were crushed into green juice flying everywhere the moment they touched the base of the mountain by the terrifying gravity mixed with high-dimensional pressure!

Before such overwhelming power, her proud Wood Law was so fragile!

"Lin Zhu! Get out of the way!"

At the critical moment!

Zhao Qingcang, who had been expressionless and silently gathering power, let out an angry roar!

He knew all too well that if this thing really hit, more than half of the Imperial Capital would be reduced to ruins within a tenth of a second, with casualties in the tens of millions! Great Xia's national fortune would suffer an irreparable blow!

"Buzz—!"

Zhao Qingcang's eyes erupted with terrifying silver light, and the bones throughout his body were making overloaded popping sounds!

His hands rapidly formed seals in front of his chest, and the vast mana within him, belonging to the god of war of great xia and an SS-rank space-type powerhouse, poured out without reservation!

"Great Spatial Shift! Get the hell—out of here!"

Veins bulged on Zhao Qingcang's forehead as he pushed his palms forward, his eyes wide with fury!

The Void Realm directly beneath the mountain underwent an extremely violent distortion!

A massive silver spatial rift, several kilometers long, forcibly met the falling mountain!

"Crack—!"

The mountain's massive body slammed fiercely into the spatial rift, and the fragile spatial barriers made a tooth-grittingly terrifying cracking sound, seemingly on the verge of complete collapse!

"Ugh!"

Zhao Qingcang groaned, a mouthful of blood surging up his throat and overflowing from the corner of his mouth.

But he held his hands pushed into the Void Realm firmly, his eyes bloodshot, stubbornly using unreasonable spatial Laws to swallow the entire mountain into a void tunnel at the critical moment!

In the sky, the sun-blotting pressure vanished.

The next second!

"Rumble—!!!"

Above a patch of wilderness over ten kilometers away from the Imperial Capital's urban area, that spatial rift was forcibly opened once more!

That giant earthen mountain was spat out violently, carrying peerless kinetic energy as it crashed heavily toward ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) the ground!

When the mountain hit the ground!

The earth shook!

A visible shockwave of yellowish dust, dozens of meters high, swept frantically outward along the ground, destroying all trees and rocks in its path!

Even from over ten kilometers away, the terrifying earth-shaking effect was still clearly felt within the Imperial Capital!

"Rumble..."

Countless skyscrapers, hundreds of stories high, swayed wildly in the violent tremors, making overloaded metal-twisting sounds.

Large areas of glass curtain walls shattered, crashing to the ground with a clatter.

Cars on the streets were tumbled over by the tremors, and alarms blared in unison.

Countless civilians were shaken to the ground by the intense tremors; they clutched their ears, their minds blank, their hearts filled with the palpitations of survivors.

So close!

Really, it was less than half a second away from all of them, along with this bustling city, being crushed into a pool of bloody mud by that mountain!

High in the sky.

The gale howled, making everyone's robes flap loudly.

The burly man who had thrown the earthen mountain, seeing his city-slaughtering blow actually broken by Zhao Qingcang's desperate effort, didn't feel the slightest bit of anger at his plan failing.

Instead, he planted his giant axe into the Void Realm, looked up, and let out an unbridled sneer.

"Oh?"

"Quite resilient, aren't you, little rats of the present world?"

The burly man patted non-existent dust off his hands, looking down mockingly at Zhao Qingcang, whose mouth was bleeding and whose chest was heaving violently.

"But seeing how much you're struggling, you've already reached your limit, haven't you?"

"That level of super-large spatial transfer just now must have consumed a huge amount of mana, right? How many times can you use it? Three? Or five?"

The burly man took a step forward, and that violent pressure belonging to a Dominator of the old era climbed steadily again, locking onto Zhao Qingcang and Lin Zhu.

The dozens of powerhouses from the Dawnbreaker Guild behind him all let out mocking laughs as well.

"Let me tell you—"

The sneer on the burly man's face slowly faded, turning into an expression of supreme superiority.

"That mountain just now didn't even use thirty percent of my power!"

"That was just an appetizer, a friendly warning to your Great Xia."

He extended a finger as thick as a carrot and wagged it at Zhao Qingcang.

"I hope that when you speak to us, your attitude can be a bit more polite."

"Otherwise, the next mountain..." The burly man licked his dry lips, his killing intent cold, "will directly smash the gates of your military department and have these tens of millions of people buried with them!"
