Earth, Earth Escape???

"What the hell are you yelling for?!"

The moment the diamond beast horde stirred, Ginawell roared and pulled the trigger of her heavy machine gun with a fanatical expression. The distance of several hundred meters was nothing in the face of the bullet's velocity. The scorching torrent of metal instantly tore apart the human members of the Advent Faction organization in front of her!

That scene...

Wow, that's pretty explosive.

The diamond beast horde instantly sprang into action and began to charge—the sight of hundreds of diamond-clad monsters charging forward simultaneously was truly awe-inspiring.

Those inside the fortifications felt the trenches they were hiding in trembling.

The soil at the edge was falling off in a whooshing sound.

These independent cultivators were not to be outdone and began to fight back—having been trained in modern warfare, they preferred to use firearms.

In a short time,

Submachine guns, assault rifles, and heavy machine guns unleashed their full firepower, creating a torrent of metal that formed a deadly blockade.

They are all extraordinary people.

Even beginner-level superhumans are much stronger than ordinary people in terms of physical fitness. Their superior muscle strength and nerve reaction speed allow them to better control firearms and make bullets hit targets more accurately!

However, some of the larger diamond monsters, relying on their thick skin and high health, charged forward despite the barrage of metal projectiles! Some of the smaller ones ran at top speed, trying to get around to the back of the fortifications.

Among the many extraordinary and independent cultivators...

Alphonso, Lothar, and Ginawell were particularly outstanding.

Ginawell operated the heavy machine gun, whose mount absorbed most of the recoil. However, the extremely high rate of fire and 12.7mm caliber bullets still made the heavy machine gun more difficult to control than ordinary firearms.

Ginawell's body trembled violently as she gripped the heavy machine gun, skillfully mitigating the weapon's recoil. The machine gun was truly under her control, hitting exactly where she aimed! Meanwhile, Lothar was holding a Barrett anti-materiel sniper rifle...

With each deafening roar, a diamond monster was blasted apart! Diamond fragments and blood splattered everywhere, blooming in the sunlight—it was actually quite beautiful? Besides that, large-caliber assault rifles could inflict some damage on the monster horde; as for the rogue cultivators wielding submachine guns...

Bullets rained down, only diamond fragments flew out! Amidst the chaos, Li Yao's expression was grave!

Alphonso held a Winchester shotgun in his left hand, but he wasn't using 12-gauge shotgun shells; he was using 12-gauge slugs!

A single shot can often shatter half of a monster's body.

His men followed behind, loading bullets into the guns to ensure Alphonso could fire accurately and quickly.

Seeing Li Yao's grave expression Alphonso couldn't help but worry and asked, "Is the situation not right?"

He glanced at the battlefield.

The group hiding in the trenches discovered that they were using modern Hot Weapons such as guns and grenades to suppress the diamond monster.

"Nothing's wrong!" Li Yao gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, you guys smashed all the diamonds!"

Broken diamonds are worthless! Everyone: "..."

The monsters' levels and the quality of the diamonds on them were clearly worthless; the hunting team had hunted much better ones. Yet, they were all destroyed by gunfire and grenades! Li Yao was heartbroken beyond words!

Alphonso his head; he didn't seem to quite understand the thoughts of the person next to him!

"What the hell is this time for you to worry about this kind of thing?!" Alphonso simply led his men to reinforce the other trench! He couldn't be bothered with him!

After Alphonso, Li Yao asked the monster Sauron through the Mind Link, "How was the food? Was it good?"

Sauron the Monster: "???"

Having been immersed in Earth's culture for so long, Sauron instinctively sensed something was wrong and asked, "Master, are you trying to tell me a joke?"

I'm just a cat! Are you crazy?!

Li Yao retorted seriously, "Do I look like that kind of person? You know, I spoil you."

Sauron: "..."

It wants to swear.

However, the situation did not allow it.

The current battle situation is not as optimistic as it appears on the surface. This subspace is a well-structured plane. Although its size is unknown, the Crystal Cluster Creature here clearly possess intelligence, and their social systems and structures may even have developed to a considerably high level.

Therefore, this attack is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

At the same time that the ground beasts began their attack, an attack was also launched from underground. In terms of energy fluctuations, it was equivalent to the peak of the second tier, and a very few were even equivalent to the third tier.

In Li Yao's mental perception, those monsters were very small, moved very fast in the soil, and had a full-body spiritual energy crystal cluster coverage of 80%!

It's safe to say he's a tough opponent! The monster Sauron wields the power of soul, shadow, and fire. His high level of life and his experience as a former peak Tier 6 cultivator allow him to unleash even greater power in his current state! However, the underground is not his domain.

So catching those little creatures underground is quite a chore.

Damn it! What did I do wrong? I have to do all this hard labor and get harassed by that heartless mage!

but,

Those little things are really delicious! Because they are small in size but have high growth potential, and their soul and leadership strength are quite good, each of those little things tastes like a ripe and juicy grape. The feeling of the juice splashing in your mouth when you bite into them is just too satisfying! So Sauron ignored Li Yao's trash talk and focused on catching mice underground!

Huh? Could this be the reason I enjoy doing it so much? Oh well, never mind.

None of that matters, as long as it tastes good! The monster Sauron happily put his earlier doubts to the back of his mind, completely unaware that his current habits and behavior were very similar to those of a certain frivolous mage.

Li Yao stood in the center of the position, surveying the entire situation.

I thought to myself that I couldn't continue like this.

This is the subspace of the Crystal Cluster Creature; lingering here will certainly be disadvantageous! After all, the Crystal Cluster Creature can call for reinforcements.

But they only have so few people and so few guns and ammunition! The longer it drags on, the more unfavorable the situation will become!

After thinking for a moment, Li Yao quickly found a way to break the deadlock.

Because of the strict and distinct class system within their groups, Crystal Cluster Creature are extremely difficult to deal with once they are ordered to fight.

This is their advantage.

But that is also their greatest weakness.

Finding the leader of this beast herd would defuse the attack and even allow them to be brought under control! So,

Where is the leader? The opponent is clever; they haven't participated in the battle, but are instead commanding the beasts from the shadows. Furthermore, they are extremely adept at concealing their presence, to the point that Li Yao hasn't detected them yet! After a moment's thought...

Li Yao's mind suddenly made up!

The Azvik Mage Armor was instantly donned, and the magic array engraved within Mage Armor, powered by magic stones, began to operate rapidly!

Li Yao stomped his foot hard!

The gray figure soared into the sky, unleashing the advanced version of the "Flame Burst" spell, "Flame Burning"! Wisps of fiery red heat snaked and swirled around Li Yao, burning many of the charging monsters to death!

Psionic Crystals possess high-temperature resistance properties.

However, the Crystal Cluster Creature are not entirely composed of Spiritual Energy Diamond! And "Flame Burning" can create magical flames ranging from 600 to 1100 degrees Celsius, which have extremely powerful destructive power against living organisms!

Taking advantage of the moment when the monsters around him were dying in droves, Li Yao suddenly landed and crouched down, pressing his hands to the ground—"Shatter Ground" activated! "Boom!"

The ground within a 50-meter radius of Li Yao suddenly trembled and caved in! The rogue cultivators who witnessed this were stunned! Was it really that powerful? Ginawell even forgot to pull the trigger, stammering, "Earth... Earth Escape???"

First update. I contacted Feilu today. They said it wasn't plagiarism but refused to apologize, only saying they would modify the parts with high similarity (however, I didn't see any chapters being blocked, and... the logic of being able to modify but refusing to admit it is quite strange). In short, the negotiation didn't go smoothly. There's no way to exert pressure. Fighting on some website would be a waste of my time. I'd rather use that time to write more, which would be better for both me and everyone else, so... this is the only way. There is no justice in this world, and this world is never worth it—but I am worth it! I love you all, just as I hope you love me. I feel terrible, but I hope you enjoy reading this, and I will do things properly and correctly... and then, three updates tonight.
