Boom! Boom! Boom!
Aboard the starship, all manner of long-range weapons opened fire. Attacks filled the sky, tearing through the heavens as they shot toward the Tianli Sect's forces.
When it came to firepower coverage, that was technology's domain. Though the power of each individual shot was less than that of a starship's main cannon, their sheer numbers made up for it. Like flowers raining from the sky, volley after volley of rapid fire blanketed hundreds of miles of heaven and earth.
Wave after wave of energy exploded, forming flames that filled the sky and seemed to set the heavens ablaze.
The Heavenly Vessel's defensive grand formation shook violently under the bombardment. Defensive layers constantly shattered, and the Heavenly Vessel kept retreating.
"We can't go on like this. Counterattack immediately, or we'll be completely suppressed!"
Yunhe's expression was grim. The Mechanical Empire had come thoroughly prepared; they had clearly set out to wipe out this force of theirs. If this continued, the defensive formation would struggle to hold, and their ranks would be scattered.
What was more, the Mechanical Empire's mech legions and Liquid Metal Warriors had yet to truly enter the battle.
"Tianli Sword Array, activate!"
Yunhe shouted deeply. A powerful sword intent surged into the heavens, and the other True Lords moved in unison. More than a dozen True Lords, over a hundred Nascent Soul Tribulation Realm cultivators, and over a thousand True Person Realm cultivators formed a surging sword array together.
A vast sword intent soared skyward as endless sword light slashed out.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Countless bursts of energy exploded in the sky, scattering the overwhelming firepower raining down from above and clearing the heavens.
Yet everyone's hearts sank—the Mechanical Empire's mech legion had already pressed forward beneath the cover of that barrage.
"Move out!"
