"I'll be back soon!" Jin Quan Aotian said with a smile.
The Heaven Swallowing Golden Armor, utilizing its powerful impact-resistant coating and sturdy armor, easily withstood the shockwave of tens of thousands of tons and flew towards the Golden Mech Brigade, following them to the northwest.
Before the explosion, Ba Can Ji had already accelerated to Mach 37. Its streamlined fighter-jet-like body reduced air resistance, allowing it to rush out of the high-pressure zone like an invisible phantom.
Hei Long had already pulled Mu Ye Xingchen's mech into the dark domain to hide.
In the sky, only Lei Bao Zhao Xing charged towards the enemy.
A strong牵引 (qiān yǐn - traction/pulling) lightning network was launched from the bowstring of the electromagnetic left arm, striking at the enemy aircraft swarm.
Lei Bao Zhao Xing drew two close-combat light swords, slashing out straight deep blue light beams directly towards the enemy crowd.
The sky was instantly streaked with blue light beams, forming irregular three-dimensional blue patterns.
As soon as the [Shun Ying Su Sha - Blue Electric Wind Great Three-Dimensional Killing Array] ended, dozens of enemy mechs exploded in place.
"You want Mu Ye Xingchen? Go to hell to find him!" Gu Ya roared.
Lei Bao Zhao Xing unfolded its shoulder armor, with three giant cannons deploying from each shoulder. The giant beam cannonballs shot towards the enemy like fire meteors piercing the sky.
An eye for an eye, the fire meteors exploded in the air, creating a vacuum compression field. All enemy mechs within the blast radius were drawn together into an extremely small airspace by the powerful compression shockwave.
[Nu Feng Sha Zhen: Kuang Feng Zhi Jing - Shi Hai Wu Cun Ban Shan]!
The moment Gu Ya unleashed his strongest area-killing ultimate skill, countless Lei Bao Zhao Xing transformed into phased afterimages, rapidly scattering outwards from the main body.
Every afterimage that touched an enemy mech instantly created an extremely terrifying and deep gash on its body.
The sky lit up with explosions, and countless fragments of enemy mechs rained down into the sea. Ba Can Ji, cutting in from the outer perimeter, rapidly transformed in mid-air, launching twelve missiles.
Ba Can Ji was actually faster than the missiles it launched. The sky was filled with roaring, but its figure was nowhere to be seen.
Within seconds, dozens of enemy mechs froze in mid-air as if struck by acupoint attacks.
Subsequently, the missiles struck, delivering the final blow to the enemy aircraft swarm, erupting in continuous fire.
Others might not have seen it clearly, but Gu Ya saw it perfectly: the moment Ba Can Ji made contact with the enemy mechs, it fired an extremely small needle-like missile into them.
All enemy mechs hit by the missiles became immobilized, like fish waiting to be slaughtered.
Being able to inject needle missiles into dozens of enemy mechs within seconds, both its speed and precision were beyond Gu Ya's reach.
The remaining few enemy mechs, seeing the unfavorable situation, all turned and fled.
Hei Long mech suddenly appeared behind the enemy swarm, wielding its sharp claws, swiftly and brutally slaughtering the enemy aircraft.
The battle was not in doubt; it hadn't even reached the level of a warm-up for everyone.
Looking at the wreckage of enemy mechs covering the sea, Gu Ya pouted, still not satisfied: "Wait for Jin Quan Aotian, or continue advancing?"
Ba Can Ji reverted to its fighter-jet form, hovering in the air. Shu Fei Zhang's calm voice came through: "The mission is important, we continue. Mu Ye, send the coordinates of the underground entrance to everyone."
Mu Ye Xingchen said flatly: "To find the entrance, we need the 'Ping Bo Universe Projector'. This item is still preserved in the Museum of the Kingdom of Bai Di Yun Sheng on the continent of Da Xia Wan.
"What?" Shu Fei Zhang was somewhat indignant: "It's been days! Why didn't you say so sooner!"
"You didn't ask me either," Mu Ye Xingchen replied indifferently.
Just then, from the Meraryma Islands, countless enemy aircraft groups ascended again, their numbers even greater than before, at least two thousand or more.
Shu Fei Zhang frowned as he gazed at the enemy swarm, sighing: "Gu Ya, Jing Ming, take Mu Ye to the Kingdom of Bai Di Yun Sheng. I'll cover your retreat."
"You alone?" Gu Ya asked calmly.
"One is enough," Shu Fei Zhang said steadily.
Just like the first time he met him, when he said "one is enough," beneath that silent exterior, this God of War exuded a powerful sense of security and confidence.
"Remember to contact us using encrypted communication," Gu Ya agreed, then flew west with Shen Jing Ming and Mu Ye Xingchen.
Shu Fei Zhang looked at the enemy formation stretching tens of kilometers across the horizon, steadily maneuvering his mech into the clouds.
Hundreds of enemy mechs suddenly ascended to pursue. The remaining enemy forces split into two groups, flanking Gu Ya from the left and right.
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from within the clouds, descending onto the sea like a sound meteor.
Only the sound was heard, not the person. In the formation of enemy mechs pursuing Gu Ya, enemy mechs suddenly began to explode without warning.
Just as the enemy frantically searched for the cause of the explosions, gusts of strong wind swept past, and in an instant, something seemed to flash by at high speed.
In less than a second, another explosion lit up the sky!
"The opponent is too fast! Our camera equipment cannot capture their figure!"
"Scatter! Scatter!! Form a net-like formation, four per group! Ah—!"
"Boom—!"
Before the enemy commander could issue a new tactic, his flagship mech exploded.
A terrifying atmosphere pressed down on every Black Star mech pilot like a great mountain.
Suddenly, a Black Star mech pilot shouted: "Smoke! Release all the smoke you can!!!"
At the command, thousands of enemy mechs sprayed smoke in all directions. White, red, yellow, and green, colorful smoke enveloped the entire airspace.
Within the smoke, the enemy finally saw the elusive and super-fast Ba Can Ji!
Ba Can Ji's extreme speed rapidly dispersed the surrounding smoke, forming a smoke tunnel.
"It's there!!! Everyone, no matter the cost, use your mechs to block it!!"
Hundreds of enemy mechs converged from all directions. When the mechs in front exploded, the mechs behind would immediately fill their place.
Disregarding the minimum operating distance between mechs, they pushed and jostled, throwing themselves at Ba Can Ji recklessly.
Ba Can Ji was heavily surrounded. The sky and sea were obscured from its view. Countless enemy mechs crowded around it, their weapons hacking wildly at its body, creating continuous "bang! crack!" sounds.
If it didn't find a way to escape, Ba Can Ji would be chopped and torn to pieces by the enemy mechs!
At this critical juncture, Shu Fei Zhang suddenly roared:
"A hundred years ago, I crippled the world's eight strongest nations!"
"I resisted millions of jackals invading Xian Xia!!"
"I am the God of War of Xian Xia, I am the invincible weapon of this era!"
"My model makes the world tremble!"
"My name is Wei Long!"
"My name! Ba Can Ji!!!"
"Kill—!!!"
Ba Can Ji suddenly drew the folding wing-like long sword from its back, maneuvering at a slight angle to kill,
The pure composite material weapon, paired with a rare silver light beam ripple, stirred up an incredibly fierce silver armor whirlwind out of thin air.
Countless enemy mechs were swiftly severed. Ba Can Ji retracted its wing blades, grabbed the enemy's weapons with its hands, and continued to spin.
If the blade broke, it would be discarded and another one grasped.
A terrifying grinding sound of metal tearing echoed through the sky!
In a very short time, a gap was torn in the surrounding enemy mechs. Before the mechs behind could fill in, Ba Can Ji had already slaughtered its way out of the encirclement.
Countless missiles tore through the smoke and flew towards it. Ba Can Ji transformed into its fighter-jet form, escaping with its elusive speed.
In front, heavily armored defense mechs, several times larger, blocked its path. Their thick steel shields, coupled with energy-dissipating light beam shields, made them invincible.
Ba Can Ji simply performed a leaf drift and a dive to evade the enemy encirclement, charging towards the sky.
But in the next moment, Ba Can Ji maneuvered back, harassing and intercepting along the outer perimeter of the enemy swarm.
The thousands of Black Star mechs were squeezed into a small airspace. As long as they dared to show themselves, only death awaited them.
It, a single mech, had surrounded thousands of enemy mechs.
At this moment, Gu Ya and the other two had already flown hundreds of kilometers away.
Gu Ya looked back, worried, and said: "Is he really okay? I'll go reinforce him and disengage quickly."
"No. You stay here and wait for me," Shen Jing Ming said calmly.
Hei Long mech disappeared into the dark domain.
"Gu Ya, if we have to fight, we fight together," Mu Ye Xingchen said. "In a moment of crisis, how can we abandon our teammates and run?"
"But the mission..." Gu Ya hesitated for a moment, then his resolve firmed: "Alright!"
