The man on the stone dragon's back was horrified. How could they be so powerful? He hurriedly tried to control the stone dragon and escape, but stone dragons were insects—how could they possibly listen to him? Though there were fewer of them now, the survivors still charged at the mecha in the shape of a flying dragon. Explosions thundered as Di Yan coughed up blood. The mecha raised its hand, firing beam after beam that lit up the void and shot in every direction. They struck the stone dragons from time to time, steadily reducing their numbers and, naturally, their destructive power.
The man on the stone dragon's back was already dead. There was no way he could have survived such a relentless barrage.
In the distance, one mecha after another drew near.
Ce Wangtian stepped out of the void and watched the stone dragons battling the mecha. He hadn't expected to find insects here. Being able to give rise to stone dragons was no small feat.
He reflexively tore open the void to check the World of Nothingness and see whether Cang Lan was there.
He breathed a sigh of relief. There was no sign of them.
Where had these stone dragons come from?
"Stop." Ce Wangtian ordered Di Yan to stand down. Fewer than a hundred stone dragons remained ahead, still arranged in the shape of a flying dragon. But a hundred stone dragons only had the destructive power of peak Star Envoys, nowhere near enough to harm the surrounding mecha.
The stone dragons slammed hard into a mecha.
Behind Ce Wangtian, Xia Shenji emerged, surprised. "Stone dragons?"
"Report this to the Heaven Sect. Tell them we've found stone dragons here," Ce Wangtian said.
Xia Shenji didn't dare delay. He hurried back to the Heaven Sect to report.
