Bing Xin made her move
When Bing Xin received the alert from the front lines, a group of Transport Ship from the Homeland Civilization had just entered the Mechanical Garrison area.
They didn't bring only goods.
Several ships had their outer protective coverings breached, revealing a much larger number of lives inside than during normal transport. A local overlord in charge of the handover was repeatedly explaining the situation to the garrison personnel.
The Bedrock Crystal Civilization's army has caught up.
Along with them, the power of the Source-Devouring Time-Space also propelled them forward.
Bing Xin watched the newly transmitted battlefield footage, her gaze lingering for a moment on the bright yellow glow, before ordering the nearby fleet to begin deploying to both sides of the Transport Facilities.
The facilities already in use are within the protection zone agreed upon by the Mechanical Civilization and Homeland Forces.
The legion she brought this time has not yet been fully stationed. But the ships that have been transporting resources here cannot be moved away immediately either.
"Let them park outside," Bing Xin said.
The liaison personnel sent by the Mechanical Civilization quickly delivered the specified location to the Panjing Legion.
At the same time, several War Fortress began to converge from the outside inwards. The Mechanical Nodes that had already been deployed lit up one by one along the transport routes.
Upon receiving this message, a Level-10 Strong Practitioner from the Bedrock Crystal Civilization did not immediately halt his advance.
A portion of the enemy forces that had just retreated had already taken refuge in the facilities ahead. The resources that had been seized earlier were likely also sent there.
The Level-12 Strong Practitioner of the Source-Devouring Time-Space is right behind them.
"We will only take back what belongs to us," the powerful expert from the Panjing realm said in a deep voice. To be honest, he didn't want to provoke a more powerful Mechanical Civilization, but he was also unwilling to let his enemy escape.
The fleets following him continued towards the area where Transport Ship were still being received. The Mountain-Devouring Crystal Wheel, originally used to erode enemy defenses, was also pushed to the flank by another Level-11 Strong Practitioner.
Several nearby earthen and stone structures used to stabilize the facilities soon began to darken.
The Mechanical Position did not immediately fire at the crystal wheel.
A patch of icy blue light had already spread outwards along those structures!
The Ley Lines power that was originally being manipulated condensed directly into large areas of ice and rock before it could flow further towards the crystal wheel. The edges of the crystal wheel as it rotated inward were also covered with a layer of fine ice crystals.
The Level-11 Strong Practitioner of the Bedrock Crystal Civilization immediately retreated.
This is the Power of Rules Level-12 rule!
Bing Xin's figure had already appeared in front of the transport area. The ice mirror floating beside her reflected the crystal wheel and the nearby fleets that were still moving forward.
"If you go any further, there's no need to go back!" she said coldly.
The speed at which the Mountain-Devouring Crystal Wheel rotated finally slowed down.
However, the several Source-Devouring Beast Legion on the outer edge did not stop surging forward because of this sentence. Some of the Source-Devouring Beasts had already pounced on the newly formed ice layers and began to devour the energy within them.
The Mechanical Position opened fire immediately!
Large beams of regular light pierced through the front of the fortress. Several of the first Source-Devouring Beasts to charge were blasted backward, and the bright yellow patterns that stretched across their bodies were severed by the subsequent blocking light.
Further away, a massive Destruction Mech Soldiers had already crossed out of the protective range.
The mechanical device on its shoulder first separated the chaotic energy in the surrounding area. Then, a black and red strike swept across the front of the still-charging horde of beasts.
Large numbers of Source-Devouring Beasts were torn apart, and the Devouring Connections that were trying to gather nearby also collapsed.
Bing Xin did not pursue those low- to mid-level creatures.
Before her, an even heavier, bright yellow source of energy collided with the newly unfolding Ice Element Rules.
The Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor has come in person!
The clash between the two Level-12 Strong Practitioner instantly caused the surrounding starry sky to expand outwards.
The rock layers that were originally attached to the outside of the Transport Facilities began to crumble one after another. Several local legions that had retreated into the rock were even pushed backward a distance by the aftershocks.
This battle at Level-12 came rather unexpectedly.
It's likely that even the Mechanical God Emperor and the World-Realm Emperor Monarch behind them didn't expect this.
Bing Xin raised her hand and turned the ice mirror towards the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor.
The mirror did not reflect a clear body, but rather a large number of overlapping, regularly spaced Bright Yellow Rule Veins that were constantly shifting in position.
Large swaths of icy light moved forward along these veins, attempting to freeze the ever-growing, devouring connections outside his body.
The Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor naturally knew what kind of methods this female Level-12 Strong Practitioner possessed.
He clearly hadn't forgotten the ice-based seals that had confined him to the experimental platform in the past.
But this time, Vegeta wasn't there, nor was the Mountain Giant King pressing down on him. The Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor unleashed his Rules Body, and a Gray-White Bone Ring in his hand lit up.
This is a Dimension Supreme Treasure that he re-equipped after his release.
The bone ring rotated, and countless subtle spiritual lights and shadows flashed past within it. The frozen bright yellow connection was immediately drawn in, and together with a portion of the outer ice layer, they contracted inward.
Then, a large number of ice crystals exploded!
The Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor emerged from the shattered expanse, its massive, rule-based hand reaching out to grab the suspended ice mirror.
Bing Xin did not allow him to touch the mirror.
Layers of icy blue light rose from beneath her feet, condensing the starry sky between them into a massive, ever-growing ice wall.
The giant hand slammed into it, crushing several layers of structure.
However, the few fingers that had not yet broken free from the ice wall were also pressed down by the suddenly thickened icy light. The threads extending from the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor's body wrapped around Bing Xin Rules Body on the outer side.
A pull that acted directly on her soul caused the icy light beside her to momentarily shift.
The ice mirror flipped over in the next moment.
The few strands of Spirit-Seizing Threads that approached her were reflected in the mirror. The resurgent icy light pressed backward along them, directly colliding with the bright yellow source material on the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor's chest.
The bone ring was immediately placed in front of him, absorbing the blow.
The Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor retreated a distance, but large patches of icy white marks remained on the several places on her body where she had been struck.
Bing Xin was not unscathed either. The Power of Rules surrounding her outstretched hand had been pulled away from her by the other party.
The two primordial forces collided continuously, causing the massive ice sheets along the way to crumble one after another.
Suddenly, the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor threw the bone ring to the side, and a large amount of soul light and shadow surged towards the bottom of the ice mirror.
Bing Xin did not maintain the shattered ice wall. The mirror surface tilted slightly downwards, and a more solidified beam of ice light pierced through the oncoming light and shadow, then struck the outer edge of the bone ring.
The Dimension Supreme Treasure was shaken aside. Taking advantage of this moment, the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor tore apart several rules from the other side, and a large swath of bright yellow tide almost touched Bing Xin's front.
The icy blue light emanating from her body suddenly intensified. At the point of contact, an exceptionally dazzling torrent of primordial energy exploded once more!
A nearby homeland defense platform, which was not yet completed and moved out, was severed by the aftershocks. The ice layer that Bing Xin had just re-unfolded was also sheared off in large sections in this collision. The Rules Arm that the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor extended lost several of the still-functioning bone structures on its outer side.
The legions of the Bedrock Crystal Civilization could no longer remain nearby.
The Level-10 Strong Practitioner had previously wanted to enter the Transport Facilities didn't even bother to negotiate with the other party anymore. He swept up the nearby fleet that hadn't yet moved back, only to find that his rule-based protection had already cracked in several places.
The Mechanical Fleet within the transport area also began to move its ships backward.
However, not all of those War Fortress ahead left.
Layers of regular silver-gray structures disperse the aftershocks from the flanks. Even if some armor is directly penetrated, the internally reactivating mechanisms can still support the next round of protection.
The Engineering Legion brought by Bing Xin is continuously replenishing supplies in the rear.
Those places where they had suffered losses on Dimension Battlefield are no longer easily breached.
The Destruction Mech Soldiers did not charge directly into the center of the battle between the two Level-12 Strong Practitioner. Instead, they turned to the outside, pushing the still-approaching Source-Devouring Beasts back towards the location of the Crystal Legion.
By the time Novell arrived with the last batch of Transport Ship, the battlefield had been so badly damaged that the original positions were no longer visible.
He spotted several Clear Tide Warships, anchored deeper within their mechanical defenses.
Those members of the tribes who left earlier finally entered the transport area that could still receive them after taking a detour.
Novell breathed a sigh of relief, but was then jolted by another collision from the front, almost losing his balance.
When the World-Realm Emperor Monarch arrived nearby, the bone ring in the hand of the Spirit-Seizing Bone Emperor was still breaking through the outer ice layer.
This most powerful Emperor Monarch had previously been active in another star field in the Primordial Universe Time-Space. After receiving the message from the garrison, he followed the existing route to this star field where fighting had already broken out.
A communication screen from behind the Mechanical Civilization also lit up at that moment.
Saine's figure appeared on the other side of the radiance.
"I didn't expect it to be this intense," Saine said.
The World-Realm Emperor Monarch didn't seem to be in a bad mood; he even managed to say with a smile, "We became friends after a fight, you know."
