Chapter 382: The Battle Is About to Begin

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiangnan province, first industrial base.

Three city-level spaceships were quietly docked and readied for takeoff.

In order to reorganize the spacecraft into true spaceships after escaping from the blue planet, it had undergone modular modifications.

Now, these three spaceships were each equivalent to a part of the final spaceship. As the first fleet to carry out the space plan, they were ready to take off at any moment.

Two old men stood with their hands behind their backs, their backs as straight as rods. Their gazes were fixed on the three captains in the cockpits.

The three captains had not left the ship for a period of time, including for baths, toilet breaks, meals, and so on.

The other personnel on the ship were in a similar situation. The ships were operating at half capacity and were ready to take off at any moment from the ground control center.

“It’s been hard on Qiu Wenzhuo, Liu Qing, and Shi Wei.”

The top leader’s eyes were shining like torches. After receiving news about the abnormal commotion in the otherworld, he had immediately come here personally. He had a feeling that the terrifying creatures would break through the blockade just as Chen Yiming began his battle.

“Xiao Qiu, Xiao Liu, and Xiao Shi are all the most outstanding captains. They will definitely be able to complete the space plan’s mission perfectly,” an old general said. He was the person in charge of the temporary control center built by the base.

No one in the Daxia Kingdom could compare to this general in terms of his experience with spaceflight. He had been in charge of sending people to the moon and to Mars this whole time and had plenty of experience.

This time, the ship was following behind the terrifying creatures to break through the blockade. It was hard to predict what they would encounter during the process, so the old general took the initiative to take on the responsibility.

The base was very busy at this moment. All the staff more or less had a premonition of what would happen next and entered an abnormally busy state.

Under such pressure, everyone became extremely focused and did not miss any detail about the work they were responsible for.

“Those terrifying creatures that escaped to take refuge here come from a different world from humans after all. They have also formed an irreconcilable grudge against each other. It’s impossible for either side to let their guard down even if they want to work together.”

The top leader turned around worriedly.

At the moment, the terrifying creatures represented by the huge eye were essentially on the same side as the humans. However, they could not guarantee that they would not deliberately set up a trap for the human spaceships when they broke through the blockade.

After all, Chen Yiming might not have the ability to stop them. He would still have to face the counterattack from the dark forest world.

“We originally thought that we had the absolute advantage, but those terrifying creatures chose to break out of the encirclement at this time and snatched back their advantage.”

The old general’s expression was solemn as he quickly thought about how to break out of the situation.

After Chen Yiming displayed his combat strength to suppress the creatures at the fusion realm, it seemed like the humans’ spaceships could break through the blockade easily.

However, it seemed like those terrifying creatures wanted to stall for time. They would only take the lead to break through the blockade when Chen Yiming dealt with the dark forest world’s counterattack.

This was a plan that left no room for retreat. Once they failed to break out of the encirclement, there would be a blockade in front of them, an army of mutant creatures invading the blue planet behind them, and the war weapon that would attack at any moment.

It could be said that this method did not leave any room for negotiation. One could either live or die. There was no third possibility.

“We can’t use our way of thinking to guess what the terrifying creatures are thinking. After all, the dark forest world is a world that functions solely based on the law of the jungle.

Just like the time on the sea battlefield, Chen Yiming told me in private that if an external force interfered and stopped them for a moment, the chances of the bone beast and the giant on the warhorse surviving were very high.”

The top leader’s worry was not unreasonable. The terrifying creatures in the same camp were already at odds with each other, let alone with humans.

As long as they were sure that Chen Yiming couldn’t make a move, so what if they destroyed the entire human fleet? After they escaped deep into space, the humans would only be forced to take the loss.

…

As time passed, more and more gazes gathered on the Daxia Kingdom. In secret, the terrifying creatures from the dark forest world were waiting for an opportunity.

On the surface, countless martial arts experts had come to witness this unprecedented war.

At the ruins of the strange mountain village, Chen Yiming was also waiting, but Wu Susu arrived first.

Wu Susu had a mysterious sphere in her spiritual world. After the sphere shattered, she obtained a spiritual talent that far exceeded that of other humans.

It was almost easy for her to break through to the inscription realm.

“Are you no longer doing your research?”

Chen Yiming was a little surprised by Wu Susu’s arrival. This woman had a cold personality, and her greatest interest was to stay in the laboratory and conduct scientific research.

The situation had changed so quickly that there wasn’t enough time for her to accumulate actual combat experience. Chen Yiming had been Wu Susu’s sparring partner before, but it wasn’t a life-and-death battle.

Therefore, at such a critical moment, unless Wu Susu could break through to the fusion realm, an inscription realm expert who was weak in actual combat would not be of much use.

As for the fusion realm, the key was to fuse the body, spirit, natural power, and mysterious symbols into one, forming the Undying Mark. This would bring about a qualitative change in many aspects.

Wu Susu only had outstanding spiritual talent, but her physical talent was actually not just a little lower than that. The difference was very huge.

Without a miracle, her journey on the path of martial arts could be considered to have reached its end.

“I want to break through the blockade with the city-level spaceships.”

Wu Susu had a calm expression on her face as she went straight to the point.

As the second strongest human, she had already thought it through before she came. She would risk her life to escort the spaceships that represented the hope of humanity to break out of the encirclement.

“Don’t cause trouble. Can’t you see that even I have to hide in the Daxia Kingdom? In the face of a fusion attack from someone at the fusion realm, what’s the difference between your presence and absence?” Chen Yiming yawned and said casually.

This was the truth. Wu Susu’s spiritual talent for perception was definitely inferior to the firebird’s combat strength, and the firebird had been easily killed by Chen Yiming with a single punch.

Compared to the battle on the surface of the sea, Chen Yiming’s body had almost exploded from the combined attack of the giant’s essence, energy, and spirit. If it was Wu Susu, not even a trace of her would be left behind.

“How will we know if we don’t try? If we fail, it will be even harder to break out of the encirclement again. Furthermore, it’s hard to say if we will even have a second chance.”

Wu Susu couldn’t maintain her cold expression anymore. She directly expressed that she didn’t think highly of Chen Yiming and was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to survive and would die in the upcoming battle.

“You don’t have to worry about that. I have my own decisions and confidence.”

Chen Yiming didn’t think much of it and smiled.

Whether it was the terrifying creatures from the dark forest world or the black tide that had arrived on the blue planet, they had all underestimated him.

Little did they know that he was essentially one with the spiritual figure. The spiritual figure’s ability to fight a prolonged battle must have exceeded the enemy’s expectations.

Unless an existence that had truly surpassed the fusion realm made a move, such as the war weapon in the otherworld, Chen Yiming could fight them calmly.

“Hmph! I just want to go. How can you stop me?”

When Wu Susu heard this, she almost lost her temper. She stomped her feet angrily and was about to turn around and leave.

“Wait, how about this? Do me a favor…”

Seeing that the other party was about to turn around and leave, Chen Yiming had a thought. He wanted Wu Susu to help him with something, so he quickly grabbed her hand and held her back.

“…”

Time was tight, and he directly grabbed her hand.

Not long after, Chen Yiming told Wu Susu about a plan and asked her to secretly investigate the mysterious underground space where the 10,000-meter-long corpse used to be.

With her powerful spiritual talent, she could try to see if she could find the foundation of the formation around it or deeper inside.

Chen Yiming suspected that the terrifying essence energy in the 10,000-meter-long corpse was created by the world-level formation. In fact, the 10,000-meter-long corpse might have been guarding the formation when it was alive.

It was very likely that in order to protect the foundation of the formation, it had chosen to seal away the enemy.

Therefore, as long as he found the foundation of the formation and allowed his main body to break through to the fusion realm, coupled with the spiritual figure, it would be easy for him to break through the blockade.

…

On the blue planet, inside an active volcano, on the surface of the boiling lava, waves of heat rose continuously, turning into streams of white smoke that rose from the volcano.

Surprisingly, the lava lake was not completely devoid of life. Small light spots wandered in the lake one after another, or broke through the surface of the lake and danced in the space inside the volcano.

From time to time, the sound of conversation could be heard. The meaning behind it was unknown, and it was a language only known to certain species.

Suddenly, the air distorted, and the distortion spread almost throughout the entire volcano, causing countless light spots to descend in panic.

“Splash, splash…”

Small waves appeared on the surface of the lava lake, and the small lights hid under the surface of the lava.

“This environment is too uncomfortable. Not only do I have to shrink my body, but I’m also feeling hot and itchy all over.”

After the distortion disappeared, the snow beast’s voice echoed through the volcano like thunder, causing the mountain to shake.

Then, eight figures appeared in the air one after another. They were the snow beast covered in ice crystal-like hair, the huge eye with the ripple pattern, the giant on the warhorse,

a dire wolf whose fur was glowing with a metallic luster, a large turtle carrying a small island on its back, a three-legged golden toad,

a fox with three heads, and a huge crawling beast with a horn on its head.

“You guys are here.”

At this moment, a voice sounded from under the lava lake. Then, a flame broke through the surface of the lake and rose into the air. It was a fire spirit.

There were a total of nine creatures at the fusion realm that came from the dark forest world. They had all been pressured by Chen Yiming’s divine sword and had reached an agreement to join forces to break through the blockade under the influence of the huge eye.

“Fire Spirit, are you ready?”

The tentacles behind the huge eye danced in the air and floated towards the fire spirit.

“I’ve already fused the foundation base into the core of this planet, but is one foundation base really enough? That huge mouth trapped by the chains is equivalent to a second blockade.”

The fire spirit still had doubts about the huge eye’s escape plan.

A complete world-level formation had five foundation bases. By placing them in specific locations, they could mobilize the power of the entire world.

The fire spirit had once been the guardian of a certain foundation base. It knew very well that for every additional foundation base, the power would not simply increase. Instead, with every additional foundation base, there would be a qualitative change.

In its heart, to mobilize the power of all the cores on the planet to attack the mouth on the blockade required at least three foundation bases.

This way, the mouths on the blockade would definitely be caught off guard and be forced to devour this huge force. They would then be able to take the opportunity to escape from the planet.

“The number three is very important in the world-level formation passed down by the goddess. The power of the formation created by three foundation bases is second only to the qualitative change introduced by all five foundation bases.

However, it is already too late. Other than the current position of the strongest human and the foundation base buried on the other side of the space-travel passage, we can only snatch back the territory of the creatures who had surrendered to the black tide.

As for the black tide, how could it not know the power of the three foundation bases? It has already occupied three of them as bait and is waiting for us to take the bait,”

the huge eye explained. Not only was it once one of the participants in the creation of the world-level formation, but it had also used the power of distortion to secretly investigate many secrets over the years.

Therefore, it was very clear that there was only one formation base that could be used.

“The power of two foundation bases working together is much stronger than one. Why don’t we discuss it with the strongest human? At most, we can allow the human spaceships to break out of the encirclement with us.”

The fire spirit was similar to the snow beast. At first, it intended to hide away. Not only could it fuse with the lava, but it could also hide deep in the planet’s core.

If the huge eye hadn’t come to tell him how much the black tide valued this planet, it wouldn’t have cared about the extent of the fighting outside. Naturally, it did not know Chen Yiming very well.

“…”

As soon as it finished speaking, other than the fire spirit, none of the other eight figures made a sound.

The remaining foundation base that they had a chance of obtaining could either be obtained from Chen Yiming’s current location or back in the dark forest world a long distance away.

The huge eye naturally did not dare to go. The last time it had controlled a human for negotiations, it had almost been discovered. Fortunately, it was vigilant enough not to be found.

Just like the huge eye, the snow beast used its ice crystal-like hair to create mutant creatures. The snow beast could also see the corresponding scene through these mutant creatures.

With the style of the strongest human, the snow beast did not want to suffer the same fate as the firebird and get killed by him.

Of course, it was impossible for the snow beast to be killed with a single punch, but it could be chased down to its death. There was a limit to the number of times the Undying Mark could be used for recovery. This was not much different from being killed with a single punch. The outcome was still its death.

“You guys…”

Not long after, their gazes stopped on the dire wolf.

The flesh, bones, and hair on the dire wolf’s body were all made of a metal-like substance.

Before the black tide invaded the dark forest world, it had relied on its ferocity, lethality, cold-bloodedness, and battle achievements to obtain the nickname of “war weapon”.

Of the nine creatures present, it was the strongest in terms of individual combat strength. The dire wolf trembled under their gazes and cursed in its heart, “Whoever goes is a fool.”

At the same time, some memories from a long time ago resurfaced.

The dark forest world had once been like the planet under their feet. The war weapon had been mobilized before it was completed, and the dire wolf had participated in that battle.

However, the dire wolf, which was once proud of its fighting style, was completely defeated by the shadows.

Its metal-like flesh, bones, and sharp claws had always been indestructible, but at that time, they had been destroyed repeatedly. Its Undying Mark had almost been hit because of its carelessness.

Compared to the combat results of the strongest human, the difference was visible to the naked eye and could not be refuted. The divine sword had pierced through the shadow.

Although the dire wolf did not think the strongest human could block the counterattack of the entire forest world by himself, it did not mean that the other party was not strong.

After being stunned for a moment, the dire wolf rejected this suggestion.

The fire spirit was quite disappointed, but no one was willing to go. Clearly, there was a deeper reason.

Finally, the suggestion to take another foundation base was dropped.
