Qian Yuhan suddenly hugged her own arms.
Her whole body shook violently, her face deathly pale.
That was in her genes. It was in her soul.
It was an instinct carved into the depths of every living being after the destruction of countless eras—
Fear. Fear taken to the extreme.
But in the next second, she witnessed a scene she would never forget for the rest of her life.
Outside the city.
The first giant mosquito crossed the Holy Light Barrier.
Its enormous proboscis was already aimed at the city wall.
Then, it stopped.
An instant later, it vanished.
There was no corpse.
No blood.
Not even the slightest remnant.
It was as though such a creature had never existed in this world.
The second one vanished.
Then the third.
Immediately afterward, huge swathes of the sky emptied—
Thousands upon thousands of giant insects were directly deleted from the world by some incomprehensible force at the same time.
There was no attack process.
No collision of energy.
Nor was there any struggle.
There were only two states: existence and nonexistence.
A giant cockroach that had been battering the city wall suddenly began to collapse from its head.
A beetle hundreds of meters long raised its forelimbs, but before its feet could touch the ground, its entire body had already turned to ash in midair.
Spiders.
Centipedes.
Monstrous insects that had burrowed up from underground—
Those massive creatures that had been shrieking sharply vanished one after another.
It took only a few breaths.
The battlefield, which had been deafening moments ago, suddenly fell silent.
Di Tian looked up. Xiong Jun froze where he stood. Brigitte remained motionless. Every strand of the Myriad Demon King's spiritual power screamed warnings in madness.
Meanwhile, the sneer on Gu Yuena's face slowly disappeared.
"No way..."
