quiet!

silence!

When I saw through the lens those monks rising suddenly and falling one after another, like ants.

Without any explanation, without any language description, billions of people understood exactly what happened at this moment.

Defeated!

The joint attack of the world's top experts failed so easily.

There was no suspense, no brutal and protracted battle as imagined, just one confrontation and the result came.

There was a brief moment of tranquility, and the mind went blank. It seemed hard to believe what was happening in front of me, and then there were countless uncontrollable exclamations!

"ah!"

"what happened?"

"How is that possible?!"

No one wants to believe everything they see, and compared to the vast majority of ordinary people, those in various countries and political systems who are also watching this scene are even more disturbed in their hearts.

Three years of peaceful development have given everyone a sense of almost blind confidence.

This confidence comes from the combat power of the top monks that far exceeds that of the past, from prepared battles, from historical experience... After all, the beings that appeared in the past dozen projections are not very powerful.

This is one of the reasons why they dare to broadcast it to the world.

Most countries believed that this would be a war without any suspense. However, reality ruthlessly shattered all illusions.

After just one fight, the dust settled.

It was not until this moment that those politicians who were far away from the scene and only looked at Australia through screens and electric signals finally realized their big mistake.

This is not a simple projection, but a super disaster that threatens the world!

…

…

"Boom!"

Australian native.

In the huge shadow shrouded by the "planet".

Dark clouds gathered, strong winds undulated, waves surged into the sky, and the violent spiritual energy destroyed the climate of the surrounding area, triggering bursts of thunder.

There is no longer any living person on the surface of the entire base. Everyone is hiding in the underground fortifications, their faces as pale as paper.

Only they can truly feel the pressure in the air and the countless sharp laughter coming from above their heads.

The laughter was extremely weird, like the roar of some deep-sea creature, reaching the ears and giving people endless fear.

Some ordinary people became dizzy due to the laughter, became unsteady on their feet, fell down one after another, and even in severe cases passed out.

Even the practitioners can only hopelessly look through the gaps on the surface of the earth, looking at the radiance shooting out of countless eyeballs in the dark land.

Looking at the dozens of top monks falling hastily, the weak ones among them were already covered in blood and did not know whether they were alive or dead. The stronger ones could only barely control their bodies, but could not hide the horror in their eyes.

"puff!"

Falling to the ground, Bai Ye seemed to hear the sound of her own bones breaking, but she had no time to pay attention to the pain that was spreading.

She lay on the scorching earth and looked at the sky aimlessly.

In those clear and beautiful eyes, a huge, blackened bone-cutting knife fell slumped, and pierced the soil beside him with a thud, leaving pits everywhere on the surface that had been corroded.

She tried her best to get up, and then looked at her charred companions who kept falling.

Before today, some of them were enemies of each other, and they also had many grievances.

However, at least at this moment, they are on the same page.

Some people were already unconscious, and some were similar to Bai Ye, their whole bodies were scorched black, and they seemed to have forgotten the pain, almost numbly trying to get up, their eyes full of confusion and fear.

"We...lost?"

Someone asked in a shaky voice in English.

But didn't get any response.

Everyone was silent, their ears filled with the monster's laughter. They tried to get up again, but were shocked to find that the breath in their bodies was already disordered, and it would be difficult to recover in a short time.

Amidst the thunder, big drops of rain fell, with a sticky yellow-green color. The world suddenly fell into silence, and an indescribable emotion filled the hearts of these proud men.

Finally, they heard Li Yang's voice. As the strongest among them, his situation seemed to be slightly better, but it was also extremely limited.

The flames on his body were extinguished, his face was covered in blood, and in his nearly split right hand, he was holding a monster limb.

The limbs seemed to have been cooked by high temperature, exuding a strange smell, and the skin was open, but they were twisted by instinct and slapped the ground.

This was a tentacle that he had chopped off with all his strength. Compared with the others, it was already a remarkable achievement.

However, they only have this ninth-grade one, and the number of flying, snake-like tentacles on that planet is more than a hundred thousand or a million?

"We are defeated." Li Yang's deep voice sounded, and these words seemed to carry an indescribable weight.

After hearing this ninth-level answer, the rest of the people's faces all turned gray, completely giving up hope.

All I could do was look at the dark sky in despair.

Seeing the "beards and hair" of the planet flying and fluttering, their pale faces were wetted by the cold and smelly rain, and they had long lost the arrogance of high-level experts.

"It's over."

A voice sounded.

At the same time, this idea also appeared in the minds of countless people watching the broadcast.

Memories of the disaster three years ago emerged one after another, and compared to what we were facing now, those memories at the beginning seemed insignificant.

…

…

Within the spiritual world.

Compared to the panic-ridden outside world, this place is still peaceful.

The elves and the tool warriors were busy in the medicine fields as usual, or building new residences.

In the villa hall.

Cheng Lin sat on the sofa and watched the live video on the big screen intently. His face was expressionless, but his hands were clenched extremely tightly at some point.

Ailu and Nuwa had also walked downstairs at some point and stood quietly behind him.

"It's over." Cheng Lin whispered the word.

When he saw Li Yang and others flying into the sky, he had already sensed the danger, and everything that happened after that was indeed no surprise. If anything, it was probably because they were defeated too quickly.

It was faster than Cheng Lin expected.

At this moment, he finally understood why it was said that one must transcend the Earth Emperor Realm to truly resist "them".

"You are hesitating." Suddenly, Nuwa said as if stating the facts.

She sensed Cheng Lin's emotions through the sensor. She had never felt such complex and turbulent emotions in his heart.

"Yes." Cheng Lin replied without turning his head.

After a pause, he continued: "Do you still remember the question I asked you three years ago?"

Nuwa nodded: "Of course I remember, then you should also remember my answer."

"First of all, we need to assess the risk... to measure whether I have the ability to rescue." Cheng Lin repeated.

"So, do you have this ability now?"

"I... don't know." Cheng Lin said in a low voice. This sentence was not honest, because he had a clear premonition that if he didn't break through the last step, there was a high probability... that he... wouldn't be able to do it.

Nuwa blinked: "What about your choice?"

Cheng Lin glanced at the screen, then took a deep breath. At this moment, he seemed to have finally made a decision.

He stood up, turned around, and said with a wry smile: "I once thought I could be cruel, but... until now, I realized that I still can't do it after all."

"Why? They clearly don't like you."

Cheng Lin thought for a while after hearing this, and suddenly replied in a complicated tone: "It's probably just... but I hope you have peace of mind."

After saying that, he showed a bright smile and walked out.

But I heard Ai Lu call out: "Cheng Lin..."

"Don't worry, I won't show off. If it really doesn't work, I will run away, I promise." Cheng Lin said seriously.

Immediately, he no longer hesitated, stepped out, and reached the edge of the lake in a flash.

Then he suddenly turned his head and glanced at Nuwa and Ai Lu at the door. He also looked through the bricks and saw Cao Wei who had just woken up in the bedroom on the second floor, and a smile appeared on his face again.

Then, prepare to open the door to the spiritual world and step into reality.
To be continued...
