The exclamations of the enemies were captured by Zhu Yan's divine abilities and presented through the live stream.
"In just these few minutes, they've already reached level nine?"
"Stop playing, it's pointless..."
"The strength of the War God Squad is truly terrifying!"
Some were pleasantly surprised.
"This is great, our Water Blue Star finally has a level nine, so we don't have to fear those who rely on brute force!"
Some were jealous.
"Isn't it just good luck to have latched onto Yang Jian Qing Ming early? Anyone could do it with their hands! If I were in the War God Squad, I'd be level nine too!"
There were also those with a less than pleasant tone.
"So what if you're level nine? You're level nine and they are too. You're alone, but they have several people!"
"Don't be too optimistic, ultimately we'll have to succumb to the combined assault of the Otherworld and the Demon Shadows!"
Zhu Yan was currently immersed in the thrill of his power increase.
Although he had only just ascended to the Saint realm, he didn't press on to continue improving.
Instead, he was eager to test his strength.
"I'll go and test their mettle!"
He, carrying the momentum of his recent promotion, flickered and prepared to charge towards the sky.
"Arrogant!"
Someone in the sky let out a cold snort.
Bang!
Two figures instantly collided, then retreated simultaneously.
It was Zhu Yan, and a level nine powerhouse from the Otherworld.
Although this probing exchange seemed to be a draw, their expressions were vastly different.
The level nine powerhouse from the Otherworld was an old man in white robes, his face filled with disbelief.
"How is this possible!"
"My cultivation of over a thousand years, how can it be a match for a mere brat?"
Although he hadn't exerted his full strength, he was still shocked that he couldn't take the opponent down in one blow.
Zhu Yan, on the other hand, was overjoyed.
Level nine!
He had actually reached level nine combat power upon ascending to the Saint realm.
He knew this wasn't some in-game level.
This was a universally consistent power level!
This meant that his strength, when viewed across the universe, was no longer insignificant cannon fodder!
A light flashed in his eyes, circulating constantly.
His plump physique now looked exceptionally extraordinary.
"We must stop him!"
Seeing Zhu Yan preparing to break through further, the level nine powerhouses in the sky grew anxious.
This little fatty, despite just entering level nine, already possessed a certain level of strength. If he were to break through further, although he definitely wouldn't reach the Transcendent realm, his combat power would double. It would then be much more difficult for them to deal with him.
"Take him down!"
Several of them shouted in unison.
Then, from the Demon Shadow side, two black figures instantly descended from the sky to the ground.
The appearances of these two figures were completely obscured.
However, their swirling auras and the visual distortions caused by their movements made every viewer in the live stream feel a sense of dread.
Both of these individuals were level nine!
Pfft!
Pfft!
These two dark figures moved with extreme speed. Zhu Yan only sensed danger, and as a red lotus platform began to float around his body, he felt his body stiffen.
Meanwhile, in another part of the sky, several level nine powerhouses from the Otherworld rejoiced.
They hit him! This little fatty, being an alien, must have obtained this red lotus platform through some special means from their world. At most, it was a congenital supreme treasure. And treasures of this rank had negligible effects in such a battle. This little fatty was probably doomed!
Although Zhu Yan's body stiffened and he couldn't dodge, the red light that emanated from him actually blocked the attacks of the two demon shadows with ease.
In the next moment, Zhu Yan's shocked expression turned calm.
So, a two-on-one was nothing special.
"This is impossible!"
A man in a cyan robe exclaimed, a hint of bewilderment on his face. This magical artifact was excessively abnormal! Even in his own world, the strongest defensive magical artifacts he had seen couldn't possess such immense power. Without even channeling Dao power, it could autonomously activate its defense and block two full-power attacks from level nine powerhouses consecutively. Such defensive capabilities were beyond even the legendary Chaos Spirit Treasures! Could it be... A hint of terror flashed in his eyes. Could this red lotus platform be something beyond a Chaos Spirit Treasure, a Chaos Supreme Treasure?
Zhu Yan was somewhat shaken.
"That was close!"
Fortunately, this Primordial Spirit Treasure bestowed by his elder brother, which he, as the tank, had snatched to protect himself first. Otherwise, he would have been injured by those two blows. It seemed the enemies were quite troublesome!
The other members of the team had been observing the changes in the battle around him. Seeing this scene, their expressions also changed. Yang Jun, as the captain of the team, directly commanded, "Little fatty, use your ultimate skill, buy us some time!"
Zhu Yan's eyes narrowed.
"Received!"
Before he even finished speaking, countless white lights emanated from his body. The red lotus platform from before floated up, stopping above his head. These lights intensified after passing through the lotus platform. In an instant, a massive red shield emerged, like a wall, blocking all the team members. This was a defensive formation attached to the red lotus platform. The more immortal power, primordial purple energy, and other energies were input, the stronger the defensive effect would be. However, it consumed a great deal, and could only be used once a day. Its activation now was a last resort.
The other members behind Zhu Yan also didn't hesitate, and all began to activate their energy. Instantly, several powerful auras shot up into the sky, causing dark clouds to gather and lightning to rumble. Countless heavenly tribulations bearing immense power rained down. The scale of this phenomenon was such that even these level nine powerhouses dared not provoke it lightly. They all flickered and disappeared from their original positions.
The scene on the field, however, filled them with shock. The members of the War God Squad were each spread out, occupying a small area, and all of them were beginning to break through.
"Are they insane, daring to break through their realms collectively??"
"This will not only multiply the power of the heavenly tribulations but also significantly reduce the probability of a successful breakthrough."
"If all these people, like that little fatty, require such vast energy for their breakthroughs, they might break through the seal of the outer realm passage!"
A level nine powerhouse from the Otherworld exclaimed, his face pale. His words sent a chill down everyone's spines. Right. If the commotion of the breakthrough was too great and truly broke through a certain outer realm passage, it would be disastrous if unknown enemies were drawn in!
"We must stop them!"
Whether it was the few from the Otherworld or the several black figures of the Demon Shadows, with just a glance exchanged, they understood each other's intentions. Without further ado, all the level nine powerhouses attacked in unison. Their target was the red shield. The power of eight level nine powerhouses attacking together was not to be underestimated. After just two consecutive concentrated attacks, the red shield began to tremble slightly.
Zhu Yan's expression turned anxious. Although the defensive power of this treasure had been enhanced to an unbelievable level by Lin Feng in the game, it was probably beyond the comparison of the most powerful native defensive treasures in the game, completely surpassing the limit of level nine. However, it was a treasure obtained from another world, and after being materialized, its power was largely weakened. And Zhu Yan had just advanced two realms consecutively. Although his chaotic immortal power and primordial purple energy had doubled, allowing his base energy to reach an extremely high level, he hadn't yet had time to convert and refine it into higher-level Dao power. In reality, the power of the treasure he could unleash was less than a tenth of its full potential. Therefore, after just two combined attacks from the opponents, it was already showing instability. At this rate, with a few more blows, the defense would be broken!
Just then, a powerful aura shot up into the sky. The red shield was instantly reinforced by another layer, steadily blocking another attack from the opponents. Zhu Yan couldn't help but turn back in surprise.
