I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

"I didn't want to come, but when I saw the view from the sky, I had to change my mind."

It was still a soft sigh, seemingly omnipresent, hidden deep within the endless void.

“Elementalization... I never thought I'd see someone like this in the modern era. You must die.”

Yan Ziming lowered his eyes slightly, calmly raised the Thunder Cutter, and pointed it to his right front.

This truly surprised the old man, because the direction Raichee was pointing was exactly where he was.

"Who will die is still uncertain, old man."

As the sound subsided, the thunderclouds in the sky lowered their boundless radiance, pressing down and intertwining to form the spear of victory, which fell into Yan Zimo's hands.

The battle officially begins.

Yan Ziming shifted his body to the side, producing a harsh metallic scraping sound, and strode forward, accompanied by a string of sparks. Finally, Lei Qie broke through the barrier and slashed forward.

It's gone.

When his first attack failed, Yan Zimo spun around, his spear of victory sweeping across the room. The immense power it carried caused the space to collapse slightly, emitting a terrifying howling sound.

"Such powerful attack. It's rare to find such a genius. It's a real pity that he died here."

The old man's voice was sometimes near and sometimes far, impossible to decipher. Yan Zimo could only barely catch a glimpse of his figure and lost sight of him several times.

A raging storm swept across the land, making Yan Ziming's skirt flap loudly. As a gust of wind hit her face, Yan Ziming suddenly drew her sword and unleashed the Three Steps of Sainthood.

Ding--

Yan Ziming took a few steps back, and then several gusts of wind entered the turbulent current, attacking from several different directions, forcing her to retreat again.

Suddenly, her skin tightened, and Yan Ziming forcibly twisted her body. Several sharp objects grazed her body, causing a burst of light particles to erupt and obscure her form.

The wings of light behind him suddenly flapped, creating a chaotic energy storm. Yan Ziming transformed into a streak of light and retreated to a safe distance.

Looking up, she saw that the four eighth-level assassins who had been fighting her earlier had gathered together; they had almost succeeded in their attack.

"You, a mere ninth-tier player, are trying to take me on with a gang?"

Yan Ziming smiled coldly, feeling ashamed of their behavior.

The enemy is at the ninth level, and there are several people attacking him. Moreover, he is in the city, so he will inevitably be restricted in his actions. If this continues, he will surely be defeated.

The longer the battle drags on, the more unfavorable it becomes for her, and the slimmer her chances of winning will become. Yan Ziming wants to end the battle quickly!

The old man scoffed: "On the battlefield, who cares about all that?"

"Then all of you come at me together!"

Yan Ziming's eyes shot out two torch-like beams of divine light. Her momentum did not increase but decreased, and she rose higher with each step. Her body was blue-purple and translucent, making her look like a piece of glass. A halo emanated from her body, and the thunderclouds in the sky began to churn and roll violently, as if the heavens were descending upon the world.

Rumble!

The thunderclouds in the sky rolled over, revealing the sea of ​​lightning hidden above, which poured down like a river from the heavens, attacking indiscriminately from all directions!

"Are you crazy!?"

The old man was shocked. This was in the city. Did Yan Ziming want to destroy Beian City by doing this?

A bolt of lightning struck down from beneath the thunderclouds in the sky, instantly illuminating an area within a two-thousand-meter radius. A dazzling pillar of light shot up from the ground, almost reaching the sky.

At the same time, countless chains of lightning appeared all around, piercing through the heavens and space, creating hundreds of holes, and then emerging from another hole, intertwining with each other.

"what happened!?"

The old man was utterly horrified. He discovered that this immense power far exceeded the scope of the ninth rank!

What horrified him even more was that the densely interwoven chains of lightning completely locked down both the inside and outside, so he couldn't get out!

In other words, they must now face this endless sea of ​​lightning...

Yan Ziming glanced up at the sky, his gaze settling on a spot in the thunderclouds. Through the clouds, he could almost see a pair of eyes that seemed to gaze through the past, present, and future, majestic, sacred, indifferent, and reigning over the mortal world.

But Yan Zimo saw other emotions within.

That was motivation.

The speed at which the sea of ​​lightning surged down from the sky suddenly increased dramatically. The endless lightning engulfed the area, and the brilliant light overwhelmed all other brilliance, becoming the only source of light.

The scene was spectacular. The Leihai Waterfall cascaded endlessly, making even the tallest buildings appear incredibly small below it.

In the past, she wouldn't have used such an outrageously energy-consuming attack method. Leaving aside the extent of the damage to Bei'an City, it was uncertain whether it would even hit the target.

Now that they are trapped in a certain area and have no way to hide, Yan Ziming naturally uses his special skills to bombard them with all his might!

The ruthless Yan Ziming hurled the Spear of Victory, then unleashed the Lightning Blade, sending it plunging into the sea of ​​lightning. Instantly, a thousand waves surged forth, the Spear of Victory exploding within it. The cascading lightning waterfall erupted like a volcanic eruption, splashing back in a display of both ultimate beauty and ultimate destruction...

After unleashing a series of devastating attacks, she felt her body go limp, and her powerful combat strength was rapidly declining.

Her attack just now unleashed all the energy in the sea of ​​lightning, with a power comparable to what she experienced in Crescent City.

The price of this reckless fighting style is the removal of elementalization.

The surrounding lightning elements were absorbed into Yan Zimo's body like a whale swallowing water. After recovering to his peak condition, he automatically released his elemental state.

Looking down, Yan Ziming crossed his arms and watched coldly.

"I'd like to see how many of you bunch of good-for-nothings will survive!"

She had realized from the beginning how fragile these guys were.

Being subjected to such an energy-covering attack within such a small area would almost certainly kill the eighth-tier individuals. As for the ninth-tier one, Yan Ziming was unsure, since he had never directly fought against a ninth-tier individual before.

Yan Ziming remained vigilant about his surroundings, preventing the ninth-rank assassin from sneaking in again.

She has now broken free of her elemental form and is now made of flesh and blood. If she gets stabbed, she'll be forced to her knees. Although she won't die, it will still be a loss of face.

The lightning dissipated...

What appeared in Yan Ziming's field of vision was nothingness. The surrounding area had been razed to the ground, and the buildings had almost all disappeared. Surprisingly, the ground was completely intact and without any damage.

There was no one in sight.

Yan Ziming became even more wary.

laugh.....

Suddenly, Yan Ziming felt a chill run down his spine as a blade gleaming with cold light emerged from in front of him, moving so fast that it was almost impossible to dodge.

Driven by his will to survive, Yan Ziming mustered all his strength to move his right hand and block in front of him. The blade seemed to know the toughness of the Raikiri and chose to bypass it. In that instant, Yan Ziming had a chance.

She nearly snapped her neck; the blade sliced ​​her cheek, blood splattering everywhere; a strand of hair on her shoulder broke off and drifted away in the wind.

puff--

The sound of a blade piercing a human body.

Yan Ziming looked down in disbelief. Something seemed to be reflecting light on his chest. Upon closer inspection, he saw a gleaming blade piercing through his body, a chilling sensation spreading throughout his limbs...

Chapter 111 The Ignited Fuse

Beian Military Administrative Region, Heling.

Both sides remained silent, but the atmosphere had changed drastically. It was incredibly tense, and the killing intent, almost tangible, filled the air without any concealment. Taking a breath made one feel icy cold, as if falling into an ice cellar.

Yan Shan was sitting upright in the negotiation room, his hands clasped together, supporting his chin, his eyes closed, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

The news came back just over ten minutes ago.

This news was far from the good news people had hoped for; rather, it was a tragedy.

— Communication between the ground command and the Dawn has been interrupted for more than ten minutes.

Several attempts were made to call, but there was no response, raising the possibility that they were in danger.

When the news was learned, the top officials of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council were shocked and greatly affected by this sudden bad news.

The Western countries, led by the United States, were naturally relieved that they hadn't invested too many manpower in the upper echelons. China, on the other hand, suffered a direct loss of two ninth-tier powerhouses!

Moreover, these two ninth-tier cultivators are Mu Mu and Li Haoyi!

Both individuals possess unique abilities and are recent rising stars with bright futures. Their achievements are destined to surpass those of the older generation, ensuring China's continued strength and prosperity.

Now, it's gone.

This is tantamount to cutting off the momentum of China's rise. Unless the next generation of rising stars, led by Yan Ziming, grows up, China's national strength will stagnate for some time.

Secondly, Russia's losses were by no means smaller than China's.

Although the Dawn was used by Russia to pursue Luna, its ownership still belongs to Russia. After all, it is such a divine object, and the Russian high command would not give it up unless they were completely out of their minds.

Given time, if all its secrets can be mastered, the aging Russia will surely be able to shine even more brilliantly than that red empire, and may even dominate the world.

Now, it's gone too.

It can be said that the most severe losses were suffered by China and Russia.

However, Luther didn't seem particularly happy; rather, he felt more relieved.

His ideal victory would be the destruction of both the Dawn and the Luna, or at the very least, the destruction of the Luna. Only then would it be considered a victory.

Yan Shan appears calm on the surface, but who can really say for sure what's going on?

Others speculated that he was probably furious, wishing he could exterminate the entire Odyssey clan and reduce them to ashes.

Given his strength, his attitude could easily influence the course of the peace talks.
