My Apocalypse Territory

Eyes, eyebrows, nose... The colossal earth-yellow illusion appeared before the eyes of the Mute Elder and the other seven Transcendents, all too familiar.

"That... isn't that the Transcendent who set up the 'Thunder Punishment Array' and killed the Envoy? Could it be that the mountaintop has an array set up? Is it a Dharma Aspect Illusion?"

"No, no, it's wrong, it's a Spirit! Origin Star, as a top-tier life planet, indeed once had Spirits. But who would have thought that behind the mountains of Green Shadow, there actually existed a hill Spirit!"

The spiritual waves among the alien Transcendents dispersed, allowing them to communicate countless matters in an instant.

Within the territory of the hill Spirit, their continuously accumulated power was suppressed, and their absorption of external Source Qi slowed considerably.

But their response was swift. No longer accumulating energy, they simultaneously bombed the Soul Ancient Tree hundreds of meters away.

Boom!!!

Like a magnitude ten earthquake erupting, dazzling energy brilliance soared into the sky.

Next to the Source Crystal Mines, a massive, uneven hole appeared. The once towering trees had turned to dust, but in front of the hole, a yellow-brown barrier spread out like an unfolded fan, blocking the combined attack of the alien Transcendents.

Crack, crack—

The yellow-brown barrier finally shattered into pieces of rock, but immediately after, every piece within several kilometers gathered together, continuously colliding and adhering, morphing into an inverted giant bowl in the blink of an eye, encompassing the eight alien Transcendents.

The Mute Elder and the others appeared somewhat disheveled, but what was more striking was the shock in their hearts.

Spirits nurtured by the land possessed Transcendent-level combat powers once born. When holding home ground advantage, they could wield the vast Source Power to exert a force comparable to two or three Source Power Cores of senior Transcendents.

But Origin Star's Source Qi had only recently revived. Whether it was newly born Spirits, those slain before, or ones that perished along with Origin Star, their resurrection should not be so terrifying. Yet, with just a barrier, they had blocked their combined strike.

"It must be the Array's blessing that made the hill Spirit so formidable."

They broke through the upside-down giant bowl, only to face a relentless assault from "Zhen."

Bang bang bang—

Clang clang clang—

Crack crack crack—

Rocks fell like rain, and the entire mountain range turned against them.

The Mute Elder's expression was grave. They had tried several times to destroy the Soul Ancient Tree but were repeatedly blocked.

Earth Series Spirits were inherently the best at defense.

Reluctant to retreat and gritting her teeth, she signaled the other Transcendents to launch a full assault.

...

In the valley.

The remaining twenty or so alien Transcendents were already impatient.

At that moment, one of the senior Transcendents' eyes shone brightly. "I knew the Mute Elder was overly cautious... Now, it's our turn to enter the fray."

More than twenty Transcendents suddenly soared into the sky, their momentum erupting, as they swiftly flew toward Green Shadow.

They were exceedingly fast, breaking the sound barrier, the air becoming like thick walls which were easily parted by the Transcendent Force Fields.

In just a few seconds, they could see the tall walls of Green Shadow City.

Following the Mute Elder's orders, some surged over Green Shadow to support the rear mountain and destroy the Soul Ancient Tree, while other Transcendents forcefully attacked the castle area.

They remained cautious, wary of Green Shadow's defenses.

Indeed,

Far away on the city walls, a giant cannon rose, its massive barrel pointed directly at them, gathering terrifying energy fluctuations.

Biu~

A golden beam of light shot out, and the destructive energy made the alien Transcendents who narrowly dodged the beam tremble with fear.

"One cannon, two cannons, three cannons... Green Shadow has three giant cannons with terrifying lethality. Be careful, we need to destroy them first!"

These three giant cannons were located on the city walls directly in front of them. They saw many human Awakeners busy operating the giant cannons, while others, petrified by their fearsome presence, sat paralyzed on the ground.

The alien Transcendents laughed heartily as they flew in an arc, rapidly approaching.

At that moment, several Green Shadow Transcendents appeared, flying up into the sky, and stood atop the city walls, seemingly planning to defend the giant cannons. However... there were too few of them.

The Ghost Clan's senior Transcendent sneered as he approached, his body oscillating between the ethereal and the physical, vanishing and then appearing hundreds of meters away in an instant.

Rumble rumble—

The entire sky darkened, and the sound of thunder echoed.

"Here it comes."

The alien Transcendents were well prepared. The moment the starlight appeared, they scattered in all directions. The White-eyed Clan's senior Transcendent's eyes seemed to penetrate the void, scanning swiftly over the rapidly forming Star Chessboard.

Then, he took out a treasure resembling an Array Plate, poured Source Power into it, and flung it into the air. It landed in the center of the Star Chessboard.

"With the Array Plate's interference, it can delay the Thunder Punishment Array's formation by at least two seconds..."

To a Transcendent, two seconds were enough to escape the range of the great Array.

After discarding the Array Plate, the White-eyed Clan's Transcendent quickly retreated toward the edge of the great Array... and then he discovered that he was already on a giant chessboard, with no way out in sight.

"???"

The Endless Thunderbolt also gradually took shape.

...

The Star Chessboard + Endless Thunderbolt enveloped four Alien Race Transcendents.

At the same time,

as other Transcendents approached, numerous defense buildings unleashed their powers.

Level 3 Arrow Towers, level 3 Cannons, level 2 Mage Towers, level 1 Super Demon Prism Towers...

Rune Arrows, beams, flames... Except for the Super Demon Prism Tower, the other defense buildings currently posed little threat to Transcendents. They could only disrupt their advance.

In the meantime,

the giant cannon once again fired a destructive golden beam, and a common Alien Race Transcendent, who failed to evade in time, was eradicated.

Gradually, the distance between the Alien Race Transcendents and the city walls was less than a kilometer.

Nancy, Eileen, and others immediately took action, terrifying fluctuations spreading around them.

At the same time,

rune symbols lit up one after another in the surrounding space, forming a large Array spanning several kilometers in diameter, enveloping everyone within it.

Runes flickered, and the sounds of collisions and explosions burst forth one after another.

...

The Destruction Giant Cannon and the Source Locking Array were two of the many gains from Holy City that Tang Yu had chosen to manufacture, considering their significant effectiveness.

The giant cannon was similar to the Fortress Cannon of Beiting, but smaller in size, consuming less than one-tenth of the energy and with a much shorter charging time... However, only a few had been made so far.

The Source Locking Array, as the name suggests, was an Array capable of suppressing Source Power and sealing space.

"Suppressing Source Power can reduce the collateral damage from Transcendent battles, but it's impossible to lock Transcendents within the Array indefinitely..."

The "Star Chessboard" was fundamentally not an Array, and while some Alien Race techniques were ineffective, the "Source Locking Array" might just break... In Tang Yu's view, it might not be as intricate as the "Star Chessboard," which had previously seen Transcendents escape, let alone a normal Array.

At that moment,

terrifying energy fluctuations swept through both the battlefields, and under his control, a pale golden shield above Green Shadow City blocked the aftermath.

"Zhen" entangled two Senior Transcendents and five common Transcendents.

Eileen, Nancy, and others, along with Puppet No. 1 and No. 2, were all engaged in battle with the Alien Race. Under the threat of the Destruction Giant Cannon and numerous defense buildings, with a few already eliminated by the giant cannon and Endless Thunderbolt, to Tang Yu's surprise, his side was gaining the upper hand.

Was Green Shadow City already this strong?

However, the advantage was very fragile and could be overturned at any moment!

The combined forces within the castle, including about a dozen Transcendents, were unreliable; during the battle, it wasn't certain they would consider Green Shadow City a protected entity.

The join of a dozen common Transcendents to the battle did not provide an overwhelming advantage.

Tang Yu observed the battle while multitasking, ceaselessly operating on the panel.

"Ding! New building deployment complete, total consumption of Source Crystals: 3,685,000 units."

"Ding! Territory Fitting Degree has reached 80%, Source Crystal balance: 8,000,000/13,630,000, Telekinetic Energy value: 1,000,000/4,268,000. Upgrade Territory level: Yes/No?"

Tang Yu's eyes sparkled with brilliance; level 7 Territory was a true watershed.

No hesitation, his heart fervently pressed "Yes, yes, yes"!

Source Crystals piled up in the warehouse vanished in sparks, one by one.

"Ding! Territory upgraded to level 7."

"Ding!..."

"Ding! Territory Fitting Degree increased to 90%."

"Ding! Territory Fitting Degree increased to 100%."

At that instant, he entered that mysterious state again, clearer than any previous time.

...

Outside,

waves of energy storms swept through, changing the color of heaven and earth.

Speaking of which, it had only been about ten seconds since the two sides had clashed.

An Blood Mouth Clan Transcendent signaled to a comrade, suddenly igniting his Source Power to burst forth, forcing Yan Dingtian to retreat repeatedly. Instantly, another Blood Mouth Transcendent concentrated Source Power, striking the Source Locking Array's runes like a violent storm.

The flickering runes shattered momentarily.

The escaping Blood Mouth Transcendent, with a fierce visage, glanced down at the horrified survivors below, raised both arms high, and gathered Source Power to form a huge Energy Ball.

As his hands fell, the terrifying Energy Ball cut through the air like a massive meteorite, crashing towards Green Shadow City.

Striking at humanity's fatal weakness.
