This astonishing aura caused both sides of the engagement to halt their actions.
The change was brought about by Yang Tian, who had been standing aside moments before.
He gestured towards Zhu Yan with his hands.
"Little Fatty, your tanking isn't quite up to par, it's my turn!"
Zhu Yan twitched his nose, a hint of excitement in his voice.
Normally, he would have shot back a sharp retort.
But at this moment, it was reduced to a caring remark.
"Aotian, you've leveled up too?"
Yang Tian nodded.
Zhu Yan's confidence surged.
As a tank, I could barely handle your mobbing.
But now my brother has stood up too, and with our dual-tank synergy, we'll be invincible in defense!
He felt a surge of energy.
Full of vigor! wap.kanshuwu.net
Boom!
When the ten level-nine powerhouses in the sky launched their attack again.
Something frustrating happened to them.
They couldn't break through!
Looking at Yang Tian, whose aura was equally astonishing, they felt a sense of helplessness.
Another level-nine?
Since when did level-nine become so common, appearing everywhere?
What mysteries did this world hold to give birth to two level-nines consecutively?
But what truly shocked them was yet to come.
Yang Jun was the third to advance to level-nine.
Then.
There was Tan Fen.
Tang Xiaowan.
...
The team members continuously completed their advancements one after another.
All of them also reached level-nine.
This caused the powerhouses, who were already level-nine, to doubt themselves.
Don't your strength enhancements have bottlenecks? How can you be so effortless?
Furthermore.
Why did it take us countless amounts of energy and vast amounts of time to slowly refine and integrate our essence to advance from level-eight to level-nine?
You've only broken through two conventional realms, and yet you've advanced so easily? kanδん
The two powerhouses from the other world exchanged bewildered glances.
"Are these realms truly cultivated by us?"
"Why didn't I have such an aura when I advanced from quasi-saint to saint?"
"Let alone saint, even advancing to Heavenly Dao Saint wasn't this terrifying..."
But no matter how much they pondered, the members of the War God Squad had indeed reached level-nine combat power by using the cultivation system of otherworldly gods and immortals.
In the end.
When Zhu Yan retracted the red lotus platform, their full lineup was revealed.
A total of nine level-nines!
Only Guo Aimin, due to insufficient foundation, was at the mid-level-eight stage even after advancing to the saint realm, barely holding his ground.
He was still a considerable distance from level-nine.
Everyone else had successfully advanced to level-nine combat power.
Such strength made the armies from the other world and the demon shadows dare not move.
They could only watch as their own experts engaged in battle.
After several exchanges, the forces from the other world and the demon shadows found themselves unable to gain an advantage and were becoming agitated.
Previously, when they had the numerical superiority, the other party could barely hold on with their divine abilities, treasures, and powerful mystical arts.
Now, seeing their opponents with comparable numbers, they even felt a sense of retreat.
If the fight continued like this, there was no hope of victory!
The clash between the two sides had already caused extremely abnormal energy fluctuations on Water Blue Star.
Traces of battle remained in the sky.
Like scars.
"We can't drag this out any longer, we must end it quickly!"
Under Xiao Tian's suggestion, Yang Jun quickly made a decision.
Boom!
Under his deliberate guidance and the focused assault of several main attackers.
A relatively weaker black figure on the demon shadow side, caught off guard, was directly blasted into pieces.
A level-nine, fallen!
The death of this powerhouse sent the viewers in the live broadcast into a frenzy.
"War God Squad, mighty! May Water Blue Star's name resound!"
"This strength is too formidable! Their level-nines could destroy an area of our planet at will, yet they were still easily annihilated. We were both born on Water Blue Star, why is the gap between us so vast?"
"Go War God Squad! Drive out the invaders!"
Yang Jun and Tan Fen exchanged glances.
Their coordination just now was extremely默契 (mòqì - tacit understanding/synchronous).
One broke through, the other finished them off.
This led to the swift demise of the enemy powerhouse.
At this rate, with everyone else putting in more effort, it was entirely possible to keep all the enemy powerhouses here.
Just as the team members were preparing to pursue their victory.
A massive ball of black mist once again rose from the demon shadow army.
Four demon shadow powerhouses took a deep look at everyone, then turned and walked into the black mist.
The next moment.
The black mist vanished.
The four powerhouses had disappeared.
Only the demon shadow army remained in place.
Dozens of demon shadow corpses were scattered on the ground.
Judging by their energy fluctuations, they were vaguely at the level-eight stage.
Clearly.
This was a special teleportation formation activated by the army, which had transported them away.
At least half of the level-eight powerhouses had been sacrificed.
However, the army, composed of individuals with at most level-seven strength, remained in place.
They could only be easily harvested by the members of the War God Squad.
When everyone had controlled these demon shadows one by one, they were somewhat surprised.
"Was it worth it to pay such a heavy price?"
No one could answer their question.
From the eyes of the demon shadows, they saw determination.
This was a race that dared to face death and sacrifice.
For some reason.
Tan Zhan, who came from a military family, suddenly recalled a piece of history.
He sighed.
Slowly raising his right hand, he gave a faint military salute.
"Truly a respectable opponent!"
After dealing with the demon shadows, Zhu Yan nudged Yang Jun's arm.
"Brother Jun, what do you think is going on here?"
Everyone turned to look.
In the sky, the five level-nine powerhouses from the other world were indeed present.
Just as the demon shadow army sacrificed themselves to teleport their kin away.
These five individuals from the other world had surprisingly taken no action.
Instead, they had stayed behind.
Facing the War God Squad, who outnumbered them twofold, they showed no fear.
Instead, they appeared to be quite interested.
It was extremely bizarre.
Facing this situation, Yang Jun couldn't quite explain why.
"Since you want to fight, then let's fight!"
The War God Squad would not shy away from a challenge!
...
In an unknown expanse of starry sky.
Hong Jun bowed his head, waiting respectfully.
"Alright, lift your head!"
Only when he heard the other party's voice did he look up excitedly.
He saw a tiny sphere floating quietly within a ball of five-colored light.
If one were to get closer, they would discover.
This was in fact a planet.
Just a bit smaller in appearance.
Hong Jun stared enraptured at this tiny planet, his voice trembling.
"This... is this for me?"
The five-colored light swayed gently, emitting a voice.
"This is the only unclaimed planet in the nearby star systems that your strength can absorb."
"After merging, you will become Transcended!"
Transcended!
Hong Jun couldn't help but swallow.
The realm he had pursued for tens of thousands of years, the realm he had dreamed of, was finally within reach.
He extended his hand and tremblingly grasped the tiny planet.
Feeling the surging life force from it.
And its unique aura fluctuations.
He was mesmerized.
"After merging, you will return to the main star domain with me."
"After registering there, you will be given a galaxy to practice with."
"I have high hopes for you, you can advance to Immortal within a thousand years, don't disappoint me!"
"Thank you for your cultivation, sir!"
Hong Jun bowed even lower.
Having truly witnessed the other party's abilities, he had no more unrealistic fantasies.
Such a powerful being who could pluck stars and moon with ease, and destroy entire galaxies with a wave of his hand, was beyond what he could achieve through normal development.
Without such an opportunity, it would have taken him a considerable amount of time to reach the Transcended realm.
Let alone have a chance at becoming an Immortal?
Thinking back to his previous schemes and his encounters on Water Blue Star, he felt a sense of release.
That small planet, he could now easily destroy.
The hatred that once lingered in his heart had now faded significantly.
As long as the other party didn't provoke him again, he wouldn't bother with them.
Now.
Advancement was the most important thing!
He gently moved the planet in his hand towards his heart.
Boom!
A dazzling ring of light radiated outwards from his body.
Hong Jun's eyes were filled with intoxication.
How beautiful!
The essence of a planet, imbued with the energy of the Heavenly Dao's will.
Was now merging into his being.
Just as he was about to carefully savor the changes of the Transcended realm.
A summons from his heart caused his expression to change.
His only descendant was crying for help.
And the location was precisely that small planet that had once troubled him.
In an instant, he made his decision.
Since you seek death, I shall oblige!
However, there was still a great figure waiting for him at the moment.
He spoke with some hesitation.
"Sir, may I ask you to wait a moment!"
The five-colored light flickered slightly.
"It matters not. As a Transcended, you are not bound by your own thoughts. Go if you wish."
"You will discover that what once troubled you is now easily shattered with a wave of your hand. This vast universe, the boundless firmament, the sprawling star domains, are your true journey!"
Hong Jun nodded.
"I have learned!"
He gently raised his hands, feeling the terrifying power within his every movement.
Suddenly, he smiled.
Level-nine powerhouses from a native world?
He shook his head.
Foolish mortals, you will never know the terrifying opponent you have provoked!
The next moment, his figure vanished from his original spot.
And an invisible wave emanated from him, heading towards the direction of Water Blue Star.
