All wills turned their gaze toward the most pure and sacred land of Terra.
The place filled with Glorious Light, the clear Summit of the Holy Mountain.
Two intertwined stars hung silently there.
No intervention, no interference.
They were merely witnesses.
Further away, there were other powerful wills projecting their force, but the seven strong figures who had prepared earliest occupied the central position, their thoughts clashing mid-air, and thunder resounded out of nowhere at the top of the Firmament.
But this was only a prelude.
Because as the wills of numerous powerful figures gathered, the magnetic field of the entire star itself suddenly changed, and the waters of Half Moon Lake and the surrounding Yongji Ocean suddenly evaporated, with endless mist rising to the sky, while a terrifying storm brewed during this process, pitch-black tornadoes rampaged within the mist pervading the heavens and earth, overwhelming and breaking everything in their path including forests, hills, and rivers.
The soil and rock layers were upheaved, large patches of trees were torn off in blocks, beasts, vegetation, and the rising lake water flew into the sky with the gale, lightning criss-crossed amidst the storm clouds, as if the Apocalypse had arrived...
"Spirit Energy Field Riot!"
Carlos took a deep breath and said solemnly, "A disaster has befallen!"
Yes, this is a disaster.
A senseless catastrophe that had ravaged this land for millennia due to the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, the Spirit Energy Field Riot that could appear anywhere at any moment was one form of this disaster. But now, this was merely the simplest of human-made disasters, and it wasn’t even something intentionally caused by those powerful entities; it was merely their thoughts and souls silently communicating.
Under the terrified watch of all survivors, a black tornado formed in the Third Layer Crimson Courtyard whose outer shell had already been ripped open. The moment it formed, it destroyed the buildings within the research institute, and the violent tremor was akin to an eight magnitude earthquake, shaking the entire earth.
Vaguely one could hear, amidst the reverberations of an intent seemingly tearing everything apart, sounds that could be comprehended by humans.
[Campari intends to personally act, seizing the Source of Dragon Blood] Follow current novels on novęlfire.net
An intention voiced: [This violates the treaty, Canaan Moore must provide an explanation]
[Feigning ignorance of the circumstance] A clear intention laughed: [Don’t suppress people with reasoning, come fight if you dare]
[First ensure the safety of exploration teams from various countries, count casualties]
[First confirm the relics, the Source of Dragon Blood cannot be damaged...]
The voices became chaotic.
In the next moment, all the wills penetrated straight into the Firmament.
The disrupting storm and cloud flow that shook the heaven and earth dissipated, yet the survivors didn’t feel safe because of it—under everyone’s frightened gazes, a gigantic black hole really appeared in the originally pitch-black firmament due to the battle between two Fifth Energy Level powerhouses, although it wasn’t a real black hole, instead it was a huge fissure seemingly piercing through the Domain of Void.
This seemed like a piece of pitch-black canvas being ripped apart, revealing the endless abyss it concealed, while exceedingly dazzling stars crossed and trembled within, seemingly in fierce dispute, probing and communicating.
Fifth Energy Level isn’t different from mortals either.
Just stronger, smarter, more obsessed...
Underground, fourth layer of the Exotic Species Research Institute.
Crystal Cave, The Body of the Dark Gold Gigantic Dragon.
Hidden under the dragon wings of the Qing Steel Dragon, concealing his aura, Ian deeply exhaled while his three companions were still in shock, momentarily stunned.
Just moments ago, upon sensing extreme danger he immediately controlled the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon to hide under the dragon wings of the Qing Steel Dragon God, using the aura of the whole Spirit Energy Field and the dragon god’s remains to conceal his existence.
And indeed, as soon as Axel arrived, an invisible glance swept through the entire Exotic Species Research Institute.
This glance was merely a rough sweep, yet it was terrifying enough, if Ian and others hadn’t hid using the Qing Steel Dragon’s aura, they would certainly have been discovered... can’t say for others, but Ian himself would definitely be in big trouble!
"So this... is the ’crisis’ I saw!"
At this moment, how could Ian’s heart not understand where the true crisis originated from? Of course, it was from Axel’s arrival!
His identity as The Unyielding Fortress ’Mahdi’ was right there in the relic, even if Axel didn’t know now, he would soon find out—the disorderly confrontation among the Fifth Energy Levels is his only chance, but how to utilize this opportunity?
As long as he couldn’t figure out a way to let ’Ian’ exist while also allowing ’Mahdi’ to leave before Axel returned, his disguise would be completely pulled off!
And then... whether he can survive is absolutely beyond his control!
Surprisingly, the first to awaken was neither Sio nor Anfa, but Yisen Gard, the blond teenager possessing the Solar Phoenix Bloodline and Eclipsing Light Refining Dragon seemed to have unexpectedly obtained strong pressure resistance.
Within two seconds, he understood the current situation and thus nervously said to his friend: "We must get down quickly... Ian, you need to immediately clear everything related to Mahdi, then pretend to be seriously injured... we’ll directly use the wounded channel to go back, His Majesty is not that tight..."
Ian patted Yisen Gard’s shoulder, he breathed deeply then smiled: "But it’s not that simple. A Fifth Energy Level powerhouse just needs to see to see through my disguise... I either don’t get seen by him, or I get exposed."
