The fierce bombardment continued for a full thirty minutes—or perhaps even longer. The surging, dazzling radiance disrupted everyone's senses, and the tremendous energy even warped the flow of spacetime near the epicenter to some extent. Hao Ren felt as though the process had dragged on forever. Moreover, no mirror images appeared this time, and the Destruction Goddess did not suddenly pop out to cause more trouble.

The best outcome he had envisioned was to severely wound that evil god, buy everyone a chance to retreat, and then find a way to deal with her using the World Tree's power.
But after the saturation bombardment had continued for a while, a faint glimmer of hope began to rise in him. Maybe they really had just gotten lucky and killed the Destruction Goddess? At the very least, this trip ought to be worth three years of year-end bonuses!
Just as his thoughts were running wild, the bombardment finally ceased.
It was not because the warships' weapon systems had overheated or run out of energy and ammunition. Rather, this spacetime had reached the limit of what it could withstand. The Dark Domain itself lay at the boundary of the world barrier, in a fragile region adjacent to the void. The battle here had already severely weakened the orderly environment within the area. If the bombardment continued, it was highly likely to pierce through the orderly zone and trigger a terrifying disaster known as
