The pure golden Black Star mecha hovered elegantly, and the young man's calm and confident voice transmitted from the mecha: "Don't panic, my generals!!"
"Take a good look around you, where are there any Xianxia mechs? They are merely illusions created by the enemy."
The young man's words acted like a powerful sedative, quickly dispelling the fear of over a thousand Black Star mech pilots.
The fleeing Black Star mechs stopped in mid-air, scanned their surroundings, and found that all the Xianxia mechs that had appeared out of nowhere had vanished.
Upon learning the truth, all enemy Black Star machines regrouped in the air.
A hundred enemy mechs formed a neat formation, arrayed in a semi-fan shape behind the pure golden enemy mecha.
Other Black Star mechs gathered around Gu Ya and Shen Jingming, forming an encirclement and annihilation formation.
The entire sky was once again occupied by enemy Black Star machines.
They were like ten thousand heavenly soldiers and generals amidst the colorful auspicious clouds, looking down upon the two.
The young man piloting the golden mecha smiled confidently and said, "Heh, Hei Ge, are you going to escape again this time?"
Gu Ya glanced at the indifferent Shen Jingming and began to control his mecha. The rear thrusters of the Thunderstorm Star blazed with immense power again.
"Do you know?" Gu Ya said calmly, suppressing his anger. "I hate people looking down on me the most. It's in my bones and can't be changed. Every time I see a scene like this, I want to punch the other person hard and make them lower their arrogant head."
"So what if there are ten thousand people? I will fight them one by one, until they are spitting teeth!"
After completing his final operations, Gu Ya adjusted the mecha to its optimal operating state and looked at Shen Jingming.
Shen Jingming calmly said without any inflection, "Leave the golden mecha to me. You go deal with the others."
"No!" The Thunderstorm Star raised its hand to block Hei Qiang, and Gu Ya's lips curved upwards, infinite excitement and killing intent surging in his chest!
"One-on-one is my specialty."
The Thunderstorm Star's hands slowly clenched, and two deep blue blades suddenly extended from its wrist armor.
The Ultimate Desolation, those it strikes are bound to fail.
The Maniac Slayer, specifically for the arrogant and ignorant.
Before Shen Jingming could reply, Gu Ya controlled the Thunderstorm Star and charged at the golden mecha at maximum speed.
"Hoo!" The young man's confident tone returned, "You're very confident. Do you know my name?"
The golden mecha's right hand reached behind its back, and with a sweep of its arm, a completely golden metal spear was pulled in front of it!
"Bang! Clang!" With two sounds.
The Ultimate Desolation and Maniac Slayer, two indestructible beam swords, struck the golden spear steadily, spitting out sparks like welding slag.
After an instant exchange of two rounds, the Thunderstorm Star and the golden mecha both flew back a distance, leaving space for the next charge.
"Hmm!" The young man's tone softened slightly, with a hint of affirmation, "You are strong! Just as I wished! Do you know my reputation?"
"I'm not interested, nor is it necessary to know the name of someone who is about to die," Gu Ya retorted viciously and ruthlessly, operating the mecha to charge again.
The dark blue dual blades and the golden spear swung rapidly in the air, creating countless sparks.
The collision sound of metal alloys and beam energy waves was incredibly pleasant, like pearls falling onto a jade plate and the bowing of a violin string, tinkling and humming, captivating.
The Thunderstorm Star's attacks were relentless, targeting the golden mecha's weak points, with feints perfectly complementing real thrusts.
Meanwhile, the golden mecha utilized the advantage of its spear, constantly changing its hand movements to block Gu Ya's fierce onslaught.
The two fought to a standstill, neither giving quarter.
Just then, the thousand Black Star enemy machines surrounding them formed a formation and charged forward in waves.
Shen Jingming controlled Hei Qiang, suddenly disappearing into the black plane, and reappeared behind the enemy formation.
Sixteen black spear-like floating cannons erupted with black lasers, piercing the enemy formation.
Ten black spears were raised, hovering in a fan shape behind the main unit, replacing the spears that had retreated to recharge, and charging forward.
The Hei Qiang mecha was like an immortal wielding spears, clad in black robes; only the spear formations shifted, but the mecha itself seemed to move without effort.
The seamlessly integrated special material black floating cannons, like sharp needles and giant swords, fired lasers at the enemy machines, then pierced the next enemy machine with their sharp tips, continuing their flight.
Under Hei Qiang's fierce assault, the enemy Black Star machines could barely advance further.
But the enemy's numbers were too great. As soon as the front was cleared, dozens of enemy machines flew in simultaneously from the rear and flanks.
The Hei Qiang mecha rapidly retracted all its spears, clenched its fists, and a massive spherical black domain erupted from the center of the mecha body, quickly enveloping all attacking enemy machines.
For a moment, only the sound of explosions could be heard within the black domain, but no explosion flames were visible.
Pieces of wreckage from Black Star enemy machines shot out of the black domain like meteors, crashing to the ground.
Countless enemy machine armor fragments flew out of the black sphere like a torrential rain from all directions.
Seeing this, all the enemy Black Star machines no longer dared to advance. They surrounded the black spherical domain, massive sniper rifles were mounted on their arms, and countless missile magazines were opened, revealing a terrifying number of black warheads.
"Boom—!" Almost all the enemy Black Star machines fired their long-range weapons simultaneously.
Beam missiles, beam cannons, electromagnetic cannons, high-thermal air compression cannons, shotgun cannons – every weapon that could be fired was unleashed.
But those weapons seemed to pass through the air, piercing the black spherical domain and exiting from the other side, shooting into the distance.
As the black domain gradually disappeared, the Hei Qiang mecha was no longer visible in the sky.
Just as hundreds of enemy Black Star machines were searching for the Hei Qiang mecha, the Thunderstorm Star and the golden mecha, after hundreds of clashes, pulled apart again.
The young man panted lightly and shouted with laughter, "So exciting! It's been so long since I've felt this excited! A worthy opponent, a worthy opponent, hahahaha!"
Gu Ya also began to pant slightly. He had used all his usable skills, including several ultimate techniques, and even the cheat-like [Code Manipulation], all of which were quickly nullified by the opponent.
He hadn't expected there to be someone so powerful among the Black Stars, and moreover, it was a youth.
"How did he decipher my attacks in such a short time?" Gu Ya was very concerned about this question.
After all, his "All Skills Activated" could deliver ten consecutive slashes with the minimum time interval!
"Could he be a consciousness life form?" Gu Ya guessed, but immediately denied it.
If the opponent were a consciousness life form, he would definitely make some agile movements in a very short period.
"Let's use All Skills Activated one more time. This time I want to see his pattern clearly!"
Gu Ya directly activated mecha fusion. As the gel-like metal cockpit enveloped his entire body, everything else seemed to freeze in place.
The golden mecha had already adopted a defensive posture, and even slightly shifted its body in this brief moment.
Just as the Thunderstorm Star's twin swords were thrusting from the sides, the opponent's golden spear erupted with even greater speed, swinging left and right to block the twin swords.
After a flash of afterimages, the Thunderstorm Star was behind the golden mecha.
And the golden mecha quickly turned.
"Ah, this is the second time you've shown such incredible speed!" The young man's tone carried a hint of admiration.
"My name is Jin Quan Ao Tian! Jin Quan is my family surname, and Ao Tian is a name I gave myself!"
"One's destiny must be held in one's own hands! I am destined to be more arrogant than heaven!"
Gu Ya said sinisterly, "I've always killed arrogant people in my life!"
"Then you'll have to ask my 'Sky Devouring Golden Armor' if it agrees, hahahaha!"
"Ultimate Technique!!"
Jin Quan Ao Tian suddenly shouted, making Gu Ya instantly vigilant.
The opponent hadn't used his ultimate technique yet?
But Gu Ya had already used all his usable ultimate techniques!
"[Heaven Smiting Golden Spear Array]!"
The golden aura erupted from the back of the Sky Devouring Golden Armor, and the entire body lit up with a magnificent golden radiance, charging forward like a dazzling, flashing golden star.
Just as Gu Ya prepared to unleash a defensive mecha maneuver,
Shen Jingming's urgent voice came through the communicator: "Don't let the golden light touch you!"
But it was too late. The Sky Devouring Golden Armor had already flashed in front of the Thunderstorm Star.
Innumerable golden rays, like needles and threads, ethereal, intangible, and countless, pierced through the rigid steel armor, infiltrated the Thunderstorm Star's cockpit, and radiated outwards towards Gu Ya!
Gu Ya's face contorted fiercely. He quickly summoned his exoskeleton armor, exerting force with both legs and hands, pushing off and retracting the Thunderstorm Star, instantly falling backward from the sky.
Fortunately, this dodge allowed Gu Ya to escape the golden light's attack range.
"Hmm? Where is your mecha?" Jin Quan Ao Tian shouted in confusion as his intended prey suddenly vanished.
As soon as the words fell, the sunlight was blocked, and a massive rectangular block of chromium alloy descended from the sky, smashing towards the Sky Devouring Golden Armor.
The golden light, as fine as hair, pierced the chromium block, but the block was too heavy, dragging the Sky Devouring Golden Armor down towards the ground.
Before Jin Quan Ao Tian could even disengage the ultimate technique's effects,
You Yin attacked from behind, and two cold lights flashed!
The chest of the Sky Devouring Golden Armor split open with two wide fissures, revealing the black mechanical structures and components within.
"My! My Sky Devouring Golden Armor!!!" Jin Quan Ao Tian roared in panic and distress, "My flawless mecha!!"
"I'm not fighting anymore!! I'm going back to repair my mecha!"
Jin Quan Ao Tian roared in annoyance, controlling his mecha and flying towards the sea, quickly disappearing into the clouds.
With the formidable enemy gone,
You Yin raised its sharp dual blades again and charged towards the thousand enemy machines in the sky.
