The Ghost Emperor sat silently in the Great Hall, not uttering a word. At this moment, his mind was constantly flashing through a series of schemes he had learned from human culture. He was thinking.

What other way is there to destroy the Mortal Domain while minimizing losses?

A full-scale attack could certainly annihilate the Mortal Domain.

But.

He didn't want too many Subordinate his men to die, because even if the Eternal Night Continent fell in the future, he wouldn't have many subordinates, which would affect his status among the Strange Entity Clan. No matter how many Strange Tide there were, they were still limited.

There are two types of Strange Tide.

One type is the kind of Sentience, savage, and Strange Tide Violence emerges from the Seabed and attacks the defense line only when Eternal Nightfall. This type of Strange Tide is usually weaker, but its strength lies in its large number.

He could only barely control this Strange Tide; he couldn't possibly station troops there.

They will charge forward on their own, and they will be born slowly, though he doesn't even know how they are born, but they are not slow.

Another kind of Strange Tide.

They originate from the "Habitat". These Strange Tide are basically devoid of Sentience, but because they share the same origin, they are obedient and quite powerful. Many Strange Tide are born in the Habitat.

Many of the Greater Wraith in the Strange Tide are the result of accumulation over the years.

Among them, those who had gained Sentience.

That is the Strange Entity Clan.

He was also his direct subordinate and an absolute confidant.

In his heart, the same was true in terms of importance. The death of the Undersea Strange Tide was nothing, but the Strange Tide he brought out from his Habitat were his important foundation. He could not accept that they died in vain under the Heavenly Thunder.

While he was deep in thought.

A voice suddenly came from the Ghost Bone in his arms again.

"Our Habitat is on the verge of collapse. We have no time to spare. The closest Frontline Jiangbei is yours." "Army forces from other regions cannot reach Jiangbei."

"You are the only Ghost Emperor capable of Eradication the Mortal Domain."

"I can promise you a high position if you destroy the Mortal Domain. And when the Strange Entity Clan conquers the Eternal Night Continent, I will grant you that position."

"All regions suffered heavy troop losses during this Rainy Season. All-Out Assault will be launched next Rainy Season."

"If we can't take it next year, then the year after. It's only a few years away; there has to be a result eventually."

The Ghost Emperor stood silently for a long time, his face grim. Everyone could see the current situation clearly: if the war dragged on, the Eternal Night Continent would be gradually worn down by the Strange Entity Clan.

But the problem is...

The Strange Entity Clan can't hold out much longer.

Their Habitat was on the verge of crumbling; they had to find a new home.

So be it.

Since that's the case, then let's go.

After a long while.

After the Ghost Emperor stepped out of the Great Hall, he roared, and countless Strange Entities responded from the darkness. Immediately afterwards, on this vast Sea Domain, large numbers of Strange Tide began to gather together, holding their positions and preparing to smuggle themselves across regions.

And in the distance.

Meanwhile, a continuous stream of Strange Entities emerged from the Seabed, surging towards the "Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One," these Strange Tide beyond their control. "Hmm..."

It was just past dawn when Chen Fan sat on the City Wall of Nameless Mountain Cave One, pondering a question: was it possible for him to plant someone among the Strange Entity Clan, so that he could at least learn about their movements?

He should have tried to accept that Greater Wraith when he surrendered.

Unfortunately, we weren't strong enough at the time to control this Greater Wraith.

He looked up at the dark clouds overhead.

It is worth mentioning.

Almost two years have passed since the Golden Rain that was obtained in the New Continent. In another year or so, no new Eerie Ore will form, and the area will no longer be immune to the invasion of Strange Entities.

Certainly.

The last effect is useless, as there are no Strange Entities near the New Continent.

If the Eternal Night Continent hadn't fallen, its Eternal Night Continent Heavenly Dao would have perished, and everyone would have lost their abilities, such as Builder. Retreating to the New Continent would have been a much better option.

His Endless Night Lord Panel shouldn't have much to do with the Heavenly Dao, right?

I don't know where the Heavenly Dao is.

Couldn't we have taken the Heavenly Dao with us when we retreated?

The New Continent just happens to be missing a Heavenly Dao.

Then he took out Message Talisman and contacted Wang Kui: "How's it going? Have you collected enough Monkey-Head Fruit?"

"No," came Wang Kui's helpless voice through the Message Talisman. "We've already collected all the Monkey-Head Fruit that the monkeys kept for themselves, as well as the Monkey-Head Fruit that was usually scattered in the corners of the ground. It's not enough to make up for the shortfall of several hundred thousand."

"Far from enough."

"Never mind then."

After a pause, Chen Fan said softly, "Return them to those monkeys; we don't need them for now."

He then got up and walked down the City Wall towards the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail parked beside it. Large quantities of supplies had already been transported to the Defense Line Seven in the Guandong Plains. After receiving the news.

He immediately prepared to plug the gap.

Since we can't build Tenth-Level Defense Line for the time being.

Let's build a Ninth-Level Defense Line first.

It's roughly equivalent to the "Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One" in terms of strength, since its firepower isn't as concentrated. We'll upgrade it later when we have enough resources.

The 97-kilometer-long, Tenth-Level Defense Line was extremely expensive to build.

It requires 9.27 billion Eerie Stone and 873,000 Monkey-Head Fruit.

But if it's Ninth-Level Defense Line...

Consumption will decrease significantly.

It only requires 4.42 billion Eerie Stone and 388,000 Monkey-Head Fruit.

The cost has almost doubled.

This is why the "Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One" built Ninth-Level Defense Line instead of a Tenth-Level Defense Line. Everyone knows that Tenth-Level Defense Line is better, but... the resources are obviously too far behind.

Moreover, the Builder over there consumed far more resources than he did.

On the Jiangbei Wasteland.

One after another, Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail began speeding through the Dawn, carrying large quantities of supplies towards the Guandong Plains despite the Torrential Rain.

"Mother."

A young child stood on the City Wall, looking at the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail Rapid Fire past on the Wasteland not far away. Each High-Speed Rail carried various supplies, including Giant Brick, Copper Pipe, Altar, and so on.

All kinds of them.

Everything you could want.

The toddler pointed at the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail with eyes full of curiosity and excitement, and asked in a childish voice, "Is this the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail you were talking about?" "Yes."

The woman holding her child's hand, standing on the City Wall, gazed at the complex scene before her without saying a word.

This was the first time she had seen the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail operating so frequently and densely. Judging from the route, all these supplies were probably going to be transported to the Guandong Plains, where the defenses might be struggling to cope with the Rainy Season.

This made her feel vaguely uneasy.

The Rainy Season is inherently a season that makes people uneasy.

On the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail.

Chen Fan sat in the carriage, glancing at the gray, leaden rain and mist outside. A slight chill seeped into the carriage through the gaps. He looked down and flipped through the relevant information he had compiled.

Last night.

The Strange Tide from all the Frontline of the Eternal Night Hall almost all managed to sneak into secondary defenses, Eradication some potential forces or individuals, at a considerable cost.

Only.

If he were the actual ruler of the Strange Entity Clan, would he issue this order? The effort and reward seem somewhat disproportionate, and even the most promising forces need time to develop.

That's a bit too hasty.

Wang Kui.

A moment later, he contacted Wang Kui via Message Talisman: "Prepare for the worst in the next few years. Acquire as much grain and other supplies as possible, including rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

"Look further out onto the Western Wasteland Island."

He didn't know how much longer the Eternal Night Continent Front could hold out.

But the worst outcome he could imagine was...

The Eternal Night Continent has fallen.

The defensive line has shrunk.

The Mortal Domain held onto the last remaining Western Wasteland Island. As long as the Western Wasteland Island was not breached, the Eternal Night Continent would not have truly fallen, and there would always be an opportunity for a counterattack. When Chen Fan arrived at the Defense Line Seven, several Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail had already arrived, unloading large quantities of supplies on the spot.

Things are not what they used to be.

The High-Speed Rail Track in the Mortal Domain are now laid by subordinates. Many tracks have been laid, and the original single lanes have mostly become double lanes, while some important lines have even been expanded to four lanes.

Ensure sufficient transportation capacity.

Humans are like ants. When faced with Strange Tide, a single human is easily crushed, just like an ant. But once their numbers increase, they will gradually build a base.

"Domain Lord Chen."

The Elder Seven had been waiting here with their men for quite some time. By now, they had a general idea of what had happened, since the Eternal Night Hall had informed them a few days ago that the Defense Line Seven had been taken over by the Mortal Domain.

"Will this kind of Strange Tide really be hitting the Guandong Plains?"

He already knew that the defense level of the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" was Tenth-Level Defense Line 10. He found it hard to believe that such a level of Strange Tide could reach the Guandong Plains.

"It's hard to say."

Chen Fan shook his head. "Be fully prepared."

Time is of the essence and the task is heavy. No one knows if the Strange Tide will descend tonight. The Defense Line No. 7 line covers a long area of 97 kilometers and needs to be built as soon as possible.

Chen Fan boarded Flying Boat and arrived at an area in front of the Defense Line Seven, where he began to quickly build the initial shape of the defense line.

Looking from a distance.

A Flying Boat sped past the Defense Line Seven, while below, City Wall rose out of thin air. A large number of Mortal Domain Member had arrived to build the modular defense line, and towering "Giant Strange Entity" busied themselves among the crowd.

For this type of project.

He was already extremely Proficiency in the Mortal Domain.

They cooperated very well. Such large-scale projects often require the Pavilion Master's personal oversight, and Little Qiu was again in charge of overall coordination for this project. "Areas one through ten can now begin work."

"Accommodation options for the Cafeteria include areas 17, 37, 48, 59, Region 78."

"Copper Pipe"

Little Qiu sat in the Horse-Drawn Carriage, staring at the Ghosthide Map in his hand. Dozens of Message Talisman were placed beside him, constantly issuing one command after another. The progress of the construction of the front line was also transmitted to his ears through these Message Talisman.

The Deputy Pavilion Master the Logistics Pavilion, sitting to the side, watched this scene with a serious and focused expression, learning diligently, knowing that he would be in charge of coordinating these matters in the future.

Without realizing it.

His palms were slightly sweaty.

For example.

The location of the Cafeteria and accommodation area was chosen by the Pavilion Master without consulting the Domain Lord at all. He was still a little hesitant to make the decision himself, because if something went wrong, everything would be over.

The Elder Seven standing on the Defense Line Seven looked at the defensive line that had risen from the ground before them, both shocked and dazed. They had never seen a defensive line built at such a rapid pace. Even when the Eternal Night Hall came to repair the defensive line, it was built on-site.

This was the first time he had ever seen anything like this: the buildings were constructed in the rear, then transported by the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail, and assembled directly on-site.

That's really fast.

That is

The logistical requirements are too high; the Eternal Night Hall can't possibly transport these buildings here. That would put a lot of pressure on the logistics. But then, he felt somewhat dazed.

With this newly constructed defensive line in the Mortal Domain, guarding the Guandong Plains, the Guandong Plains is finally truly safe. He can now step down; the Guandong Plains no longer needs the Elder Seven.

It's late at night.

The Mortal Domain is still busy.

This Ninth-Level Defense Line is basically complete; it's largely finished and only requires a few minor touches. I've named this defensive line "Mortal Domain Defense Line Seven."

He will carry on the will of the Defense Line Seven.

Chen Fan handed an Identity Token from the Mortal Domain to the Elder Seven and said softly, "You are still in charge of this defense line. I have only one request: hold this line."

"This defensive line must not be breached."

"Me? Me?"

The Elder Seven were slightly taken aback, as they knew that the person in charge had been changed after the completion of the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line.

"Of course it's you."

Chen Fan laughed, "You are the person in the Mortal Domain who knows the Guandong Plains best, and I Trust you enough. It's most suitable to entrust this place to you. Of course, after all, it's a Ninth-Level Defense Line, and you might not be able to handle it all by yourself."

I'll leave you two deputies.

"They're all new seedlings, just started training. You should mentor them regularly."

He waved to the side, and two relatively young men stepped out from the crowd, their faces serious and their voices deep. "Greetings, Domain Lord; greetings, Elder Seven." They were the first graduates of the Mortal Domain Private School.

Seeing this.

The Elder Seven finally breathed a sigh of relief, took a deep breath, and looked at Chen Fan solemnly, promising, "As long as I am here, the Mortal Domain Defense Line Seven will not fall."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Chen Fan smiled before continuing to refine the details.

It's late at night.

Large numbers of Strange Tide gathered at the "Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One," and after gathering to a certain number...

A deep, hoarse voice came from within the Strange Tide.

"Head north, proceed."

The previously restless and Strange Tide, upon hearing the command, all surged northward in the seawater. This Strange Tide was many times larger than the last one.

The entire army was mobilized.

All the Strange Tide on the Frontline were mobilized.

For just one thing.

Destroy the Mortal Domain.

The next moment

Suddenly, countless Heavenly Thunder appeared above the Strange Tide, completely engulfing it and General Strange countless Strange Entities to perish. However, a large number of Strange Tide still managed to cross this area and arrive at the Sea Domain in front of the "Autumnbright Basin".

The Ghost Emperor, hovering in the air, looked grimly at the group of Strange Entities behind him who had died from smuggling, and issued another order.

"Head north, forward!"

Yes.

He personally led the team, and after a day of deliberation, he finally figured it out: once he destroyed the Mortal Domain, he wouldn't come back.

There's no way to come back.

If they were to take land, his remaining troops would certainly be unable to break through the defensive line and would only sacrifice themselves in vain.

If we want to go by Sea Domain, we'll have to continue smuggling, and then we'll all be wiped out.

Therefore, he planned to station himself on the Western Wasteland Island after destroying the Mortal Domain. This would be his territory. After the Strange Entity Clan occupied the Eternal Night Continent, this would also be the territory he had secured in advance. Rather than trusting the promises from above, he would rather fight for some benefits for himself.

Immediately afterwards.

He hid beneath several Greater Wraith, and under their cover, he smuggled himself to another area further north.

"The Sea Domain Yellow Springs".

Not long after.

A defensive line can already be faintly seen standing on the Seaside; that is the "Yellow Springs Mouth Coastal Defense Line".

"It's time for me to have some fun."

The Ghost Emperor gazed at the low-level defensive line in the distance, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes. He had never broken through any defensive line before; he couldn't break through the Frontline, and he didn't go to the secondary defensive lines.

He had no idea what it felt like to break through a defensive line.

Today.

He can then experience it for himself.

The next moment!

The Ghost Emperor charged ahead, roaring as he rode the waves, the Sea whipping up countless Strange Tide that crashed heavily against the defensive line, splashing water everywhere. And that was until the moment the Ghost Emperor reached the defensive line.

Not a single Cannon Tower fired.

The entire defensive line was deserted.

Even the Cannon Tower and other equipment were removed.

The Ghost Emperor glanced around, somewhat puzzled. Was this an abandoned defensive line? Or had it been neglected ever since it fell last time? Even though he had charged onto this defensive line...

But the defense line offered no resistance whatsoever, so there was no satisfying feeling of the defense line falling.

"Never mind."

He licked his lips, his gaze fixed on the direction of the Yellow Springs Pass Canyon, where there was another defensive line. There were definitely people on that line, and breaking through it would be just as good.

A large number of Strange Tide crossed the defense line and penetrated deep into the Yellow Springs Mouth Region.

There was not the slightest delay.

It heads straight for the Yellow Springs Pass Canyon.

If they could go and take a look at the surrounding City, they would find that not only the defenses, but also the people inside the City had been evacuated. This was after learning that there might be an attack on the Mortal Domain.

The Eternal Night Hall withdrew its personnel from the "Yellow Springs Mouth Coastal Defense Line," as there was no need for them to be sacrificed in vain. The Mortal Realm, on the Mortal Domain, withdrew the people from all the City in the Yellow Springs Mouth Region, leaving the Yellow Springs Mouth Region practically deserted.

And at the instant this Strange Tide landed.

Messages were quickly relayed to Chen Fan via the Signal Tower.

"The Strange Tide at Yellow Springs Mouth is sweeping across the plains and destroying mountains, directly threatening the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line. Their numbers are enormous, it's urgent!"

Chen Fan had almost finished building the Mortal Domain Defense Line Seven, was resting on the City Wall when he received the news. He grinned and, without hesitation, took his men on the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail and sped towards the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" in the night!

It's finally here!

At the same time, he quickly contacted Shao Qiu using Message Talisman: "Instruct the Shadow Pavilion members remaining at the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line not to interfere in command, but simply to record Old Wang's expression, handling methods, and decisions."

This was the first time Old Wang had encountered such Strange Tide while serving as the head of the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line".

Let's see how the other party responds.

This will tell you whether a person is worthy of being given an important position.

He was fearless in the face of this Strange Tide.

With a Tenth-Level Defense Line in place, ordinary Strange Tide could not possibly breach it.

At this moment, the 200-meter-high City Wall of the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line was brightly lit.

They have received the message.

Strange Tide is about to strike.

This Strange Tide smuggled in from the Frontline. Although it had suffered a near-total loss of life, its quantity and intensity were completely different from the Strange Tide they usually saw during the Rainy Season. This was the Regular Army of the Strange Entity Clan!

A large number of Mortal Domain Member were constantly running around on the City Wall.

A tense atmosphere gradually formed.

No matter how well prepared you are, you'll still feel uneasy when facing a formidable enemy.

It's like a 35-year-old man who, even with extensive preparation, is still afraid of suddenly going weak.

A member of the Shadow Pavilion was hiding in the shadows, watching Old Wang's every move and silently memorizing it.

They have strong mental fortitude and don't experience much emotional fluctuation.

Old Wang.

The Wang Family Head family, once Qiuhe Wang Family, stood at the edge of the City Wall, stuffing the Jade Slip in his hand into his robes. He had just finished reading the detailed information about the "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" left to him by the Domain Lord.

At this moment, he raised the Identity Token in his hand without much of a change in expression.

This is the Identity Token of the person in charge.

It also includes almost all Access Rights over this line of defense.

The next moment

The 200-meter-high, 27-kilometer-long "Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line" began to decrease rapidly in height, down to 150 meters, 100 meters, 80 meters, and 50 meters, and it continued to decrease.

Just then...

A cold light suddenly appeared on Old Wang's neck.

The member of the Shadow Pavilion, who had been hiding in the shadows, disobeyed the Pavilion Master's orders for the first time. He stepped out from the shadows, held Dagger to Old Wang's neck, and took out Message Talisman from his pocket to contact the Pavilion Master, his voice trembling.

"Pavilion Master, I appeared and stopped Old Wang."

"Old Wang might be Mole. He's actively lowering the defensive line's height. It's already only 50 meters high. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have continued lowering it, possibly burying the line underground."

"If the defenses fail, the Mortal Domain will fall!"

This is a really big deal.

He must show himself.

Soon, Shao Qiu's voice came through the Message Talisman.

"Let him continue lowering the price; you don't need to interfere."

The member of the Shadow Pavilion gritted his teeth, drew his Dagger, retreated to the side, and returned to the shadows.

Standing on the City Wall, Old Wang glanced at the shadow beside him, raised his Identity Token, and continued to lower the defensive line until it was reduced to 30 meters. The once extremely majestic defensive line now looked no different from an ordinary Sixth-Level Defense Line.

The height of Sixth-Level Defense Line is 30 meters.

Only then did he take out Message Talisman to contact Chen Fan.

"Domain Lord."

"According to the information I've received, this wave of Strange Tide smuggled themselves in from the Frontline. They are intelligent Strange Tide, and if they see that the defense line is at level 10, they might not launch an attack."

"This wave of Strange Tide is quite strong; it can drop a lot of good items. It wouldn't be good to let it go to waste; it would go against the will of Heaven."

"Use a level 6 defensive line as a cover first."

"Fire immediately upon entering firing range."

The Domain Lord's laughter echoed through the Message Talisman.

"You are in Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander in the Mortal Domain; you can make these decisions yourself."

It's obvious.

The Domain Lord was quite satisfied.

A smile flickered in Old Wang's eyes. He stopped looking at the corner behind him. After all, he had been the Family Head for so many years and had been through so much in the power structure. He knew one thing best: how to report was a very important thing in a power structure.

Oh.

Wang Kui was quite good at giving reports back then, but that was due to special circumstances.

"We've finally arrived!"

The Ghost Emperor led a large number of Strange Tide and grinned as he saw the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line in the distance. The 30-meter-high City Wall was Sixth-Level Defense Line, and many people could be vaguely seen running on the City Wall.

Let's start by attacking this defensive line.

"Everyone, please pay attention."

"The Mortal Domain possesses a method for long-range support with immense explosive power, but this support requires a certain amount of time. With our strength, breaking through this Sixth-Level Defense Line in front of us will only take a few dozen breaths."

"Disperse immediately after breaking through the defenses."

"Then they converge."

His plan was perfect.

After all, he had studied human military strategy and knew that speed was the ultimate weapon in martial arts. Even the best plan would have flaws, and as long as you were fast enough, you could make up for many of them.

The only thing that left him with a slight doubt was...

When did the Eternal Night Hall become so extravagant?

The City Wall in front of us were entirely covered in "Wraith Blood Pattern"?

That's quite extravagant.

But it's harmless and won't affect the course of the battle!

The next moment

An almost tangible stench assaulted the senses from the Eternal Night. A Strange Entities, baring its fangs and claws, charged from the Eternal Night into the range of the Eerie Fire. Immediately afterward, more and more Strange Entities, like a tidal wave, surged into the range of the Eerie Fire, directly threatening the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line.

Dark clouds loom over the city, threatening to crush it.

A sense of despair that is almost suffocating.

Under normal circumstances.

Faced with such a massive surge of Strange Tide, suicide is the most comfortable way to die for a Sixth-Level Defense Line.

Dying in the mouth of Strange Entities is not a good way to die.

But.

At this moment, the members on the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line included both old Mortal Domain Member and former Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line members who had been incorporated into the army. At this moment, these people did not show much fear on their faces. Instead, because they were suppressing some kind of emotion, their expressions looked extremely strange.

A look that was both laughing and crying.

In the Strange Tide.

Dozens of Greater Wraith, wielding enormous Hammer, charged toward the defensive line, trampling many Strange Entities to death under their feet. In the Eternal Night, the Ghost Emperor, floating in the air Greater Wraith, merely snorted coldly.

A wisp of Ghostly Green mist gradually condensed in his palm.

The veins in his neck gradually bulged.

"Go!"

With a furious roar, he hurled the wisp of Ghostly Green mist toward the defensive line. He had already anticipated what would happen next: his full-force attack would blast a hole in the line, and before the line could even begin to be repaired, a continuous Strange Tide would rush in through the breach!

Begin the slaughter!

The defense line was thus breached.

Extremely simple.

An inland defense line was far too easy for them, especially with him personally involved.

"Um?"

But at that moment, he saw his full-force attack, the wisp of Ghostly Green mist, dissipate lightly upon impact with the City Wall, leaving the City Wall undamaged, as if a firework had been set off.

What's going on?

The once ambitious Ghost Emperor suddenly froze on the spot, and somewhat disbelievingly threw out another cloud of eerie green mist.

It remains the same.

It drifted away again, floating away lightly.

"Could it be a special upgrade path that grants immunity to ranged attacks?"

The Ghost Emperor frowned, having roughly guessed what was going on.

So be it.

He shook his head, pulled a Great Knife from his robes, roared again, and charged out of the Eternal Night into the range of the Eerie Fire, personally attacking the defensive line. This time...

He will lead the charge!

Back at the Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One, he had never led a charge, for fear of dying. But here... he wanted to show his might! "Is that not allowed?"

On the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line, Old Wang frowned as he looked at the Godslayer Cannon that had turned around. The moment he saw the Ghostly Green mist, he knew that there was a Greater Wraith in the Strange Tide that could attack from a distance. He needed to lure this Greater Wraith closer first.

Then.

When he realized that the first shot had not caused any damage to the City Wall, he temporarily cut off the Altar's supply when the enemy threw the second shot, and controlled the Godslayer Cannon to fire a shot at the area that the Ghostly Green mist should have hit.

They created the illusion that a gray -Green Grade mist could damage the City Wall, but only if one got close enough.

Result

The Godslayer Cannon could not break the City Wall.

It remained completely still.

The Godslayer Cannon seemed to have struck the air without causing a ripple.

Just then

He saw a Greater Wraith wielding Great Knife and roaring something like "Kill!" It was a talking Greater Wraith. Looking at the Strange Entities around him, they were all clearly afraid of this Greater Wraith.

Old Wang narrowed his eyes slightly; this was clearly a powerful Greater Wraith figure.

It's about time to close the net.

At this moment, the Strange Tide gradually sensed something was wrong. Many Greater Wraith rushed to the foot of the City Wall and swung their Hammer to smash City Wall, only to find that it didn't budge. It was as if they were smashing the soles of the Heavenly Dao's feet, unable to break through at all.

Isn't this Sixth-Level Defense Line?

How come not even dust falls off?

Halfway through his charge, the Ghost Emperor witnessed a Greater Wraith swing its hammer and smash it into the defensive line, but the line remained completely still. His eyelids twitched wildly, and a strong sense of unease suddenly welled up inside him.

They stopped charging almost instinctively.

And quickly retreated.

Perhaps this defensive line has an extremely Rare upgrade path, making it immune to ranged attacks.

But can it also be immune to melee attacks?

How could a level Sixth-Level Defense Line possibly withstand a single blow from Greater Wraith without faltering? You'd at least be covered in dust, wouldn't you?

Unless.

Unless this isn't Sixth-Level Defense Line.

The next moment!

The defensive line began to rise rapidly, until it reached a height of 200 meters.

At the same time.

The 1,350 Godslayer Cannon positioned along the defensive line finally began operating at full power, unleashing a barrage of crimson shells that relentlessly engulfed the General Strange tide. Buzzing sounds

The 1,024 ancient bricks on the surface of the Mortal Domain Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line were lit up simultaneously, each shooting out a beam of Azure Light Pillar, Golden Light Pillar quickly condensed in the air into a huge, Azure Phantom Black Tortoise.

The moment the Black Tortoise landed, it locked onto him and charged straight at him!

"Level 10... Tenth-Level Defense Line."

As the Ghost Emperor raced wildly into the depths of the Eternal Night, he kept looking back at the defensive line behind him. His face was deathly pale, and his lips were trembling. This was Tenth-Level Defense Line! An inland defensive line, a defensive line that wasn't even on the Coast, a defensive line that wasn't even Frontline or a secondary defensive line, yet it was Tenth-Level Defense Line!

The Eternal Night Hall would never do something like that.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Only Mortal Domain would do something like that.

This is insane!

That Mortal Domain has gone completely mad!

The Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One is only Ninth-Level Defense Line. You've built yourself a Tenth-Level Defense Line. Don't even mention that a hundred of them could sneak over. Even if they come head-on, they won't be able to break through in a short time.

"All troops, listen to my command! Retreat! Retreat!!!"

He roared as he ran wildly toward the Eternal Night.

Retreat first.

"Get out!"

He gave orders while attacking the Azure Black Tortoise behind him, but the Black Tortoise stared intently at him, completely immune to his attacks. It was incredibly annoying.

As the saying goes, "Kick a drowning dog!"

The collapse is already evident.

In a not-so-open Canyon, the damage overflow of the Godslayer Cannon was perfectly maximized. With each crimson shell, countless Blood Chains could be seen weaving through the Strange Tide.

The Strange Tide were extremely dense.

Almost one after another.

This results in extremely beautiful visuals.

Extremely stress-relieving.

"So beautiful."

Standing on the edge of the City Wall, Old Wang looked down at the Blood Chains that were constantly exploding amidst the dense, Strange Tide below and couldn't help but laugh. He was old and his eyesight was failing, but two rainstorms had given him a second life.

He never thought of it.

I hope that one day I will feel just as joyful as Tianyi.

That was awesome!

It was satisfying to kill them.
