Compared to the all-encompassing devastation wrought across the battlefield opened by the Second-generation Wizard King, the battlefield opened behind the wizards' lines by the One-Armed Sacred Body Ancestor presented an entirely different scene.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
The Space-Based Planet-Killing Cannon pierced through the battlefield, erasing all matter in its path. Low-level legions caught in its radiation suffered massive casualties in an instant. After the vast, majestic milky-white shockwave blasted a huge swath of emptiness through the front lines, its power gradually faded. At the same time, propelled by the shockwave's momentum, a tiny object trailing thick black smoke was hurled backward into deeper void, cutting through the frontline battlefield between the wizards and the abyss before crashing into the wizards' rear area.
The Yihuan Seal Wizard, Yihuan Seal Wizard, Pumiluoxius's avatar, Little Emperor, and Demon Doll, who were heading toward the battlefield where the former Yihuan True Spirit Wizard and the One-Armed Sacred Body Ancestor had fought, happened to witness this scene.
"Wow, a Space-Based Planet-Killing Cannon! Did the Orbital Planet-Destroying Ship come back to reinforce us?"
Little Emperor murmured in astonishment. The lingering radiance of the Space-Based Planet-Killing Cannon was so beautiful in his clear, shining eyes. Beside him, Demon Doll's button eyes also turned toward it, but she said nothing.
"The Orbital Planet-Destroying Ships of the Demon-Hunting Expedition were dispatched long ago to battlefields across every region. The True Spirit Wizards stationed abroad have received no notice to return for reinforcements; instead, they were ordered to bring the elite Saint Mark Wizards back as quickly as possible through spacetime teleportation arrays. That possibility can therefore be ruled out! If we also rule out the extremely slight possibility that Abyss City possesses an identical device, then only one possibility remains—my mentor, the Second-generation Wizard King!"
Pumiluoxius voiced the analysis
