Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 872 Done in one go

How can I describe this scene?
The first thing to arrive is light.

In less than half a breath, the sky over Mangxingyuan's most prosperous city was dyed pure crimson gold, and this color did not stop, but expanded outward and further away!

Beyond the city, cities beyond cities, regardless of sunshine or rain, wind or rain, were all swallowed by the crimson gold, forged into a uniform form. It was as if a mythical beast had emerged from the heavens, altering the landscape with a mere breath.

Finally, the entire Mangxing Plain, spanning hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, was bathed in a breathtaking crimson light.

Then, the light ignited.

When air is heated, it expands. However, air is ultimately too thin to be of any real value. Even if it expands and hits your face, you would only feel a slight sensation.

But what's expanding now isn't air, it's more like the "sky"!
It was as if billions of tons of mass were slowly descending, and from the crimson that had permeated the sky, unparalleled pressure was released, landing on everyone's hearts, making it impossible to even breathe or move.

If it were to come down completely, the entire Mangxing Plain would be crushed into dust, burning away even the finest speck of dust—no one would doubt that.

A fifth-ring psychic, standing at the [Great Source], the second stage of the True Spirit.

— “Nandou” can do it.

But compared to the pressure that was right in front of them, and the scorching heat that resembled that of a star, the people of Mangxing Plain—a very small minority—were distracted by something else.

[Surveillance Network] An insurmountable surveillance network.
For the first time, it became flickering, like a faulty light bulb, flashing and dimming constantly. Ordinary people cannot access the surveillance network, but they are not ordinary people; they are nobles who stand above the masses and are entitled to a portion of the surveillance network's access!

How could the seemingly indestructible, ever-present surveillance network possibly fail? No, even the slightest tremor is far beyond imagination; it's a complete shock to our worldview.
"Ah."

In the boundless sea of ​​crimson gold, a human figure condensed. The sky, now stained with color, obscured the sun, leaving behind Song Shi, who shone even brighter than the sun.

"It seems your surveillance network isn't as robust as we thought."

The "Supervision Network" is a national strategy established by the Eastern Continent Republic long before the outbreak of the First Seven Earth War. It was created through the tireless efforts and sacrifices of successive generations of noble families, resulting in a great undertaking that is closely related to the fate of the nation.

Now, this "man-made dragon vein" has finally come to fruition, its power immeasurable.

It is neither simply technology, nor purely psionic, but a creation of the coupling of both—

This is both its strength and its weakness.

If any psychic were to look up, they would clearly see that the lone figure emanated a divine power as blazing as the sun. Simply by standing there, the [Surveillance Network] was affected.

After a brief silence, the surveillance network turned a deep, indistinct crimson and emitted a deafening shriek.

"Passing through the Fifth Ring Road!"

The Mangxingyuan Protectorate, with its undulating, layered buildings resembling a solidified, magnificent wave, leads past towering main gates and white jade steps. Behind the plaza, capable of accommodating tens of thousands of ceremonial guards, deep within the magnificent palace grounds, a burst of light suddenly rises.

It suddenly rose and soared into the sky—

The next second, there was a crisp snapping sound as an index finger clicked against the blade.

The soaring figure, far exceeding the speed of the former, transformed into a burning meteorite and crashed back into the building complex! Its momentum did not diminish, tumbling across the ground for thousands of meters, causing everything in its path to collapse and crumble, sparks to explode, and thunderous roars to reverberate.

When the commotion subsided slightly, most of the once vast Protectorate had been reduced to ruins!

Just then, Song Shi slowly retracted his bent index finger after tapping Chong Shi. Before the turbid sand and mist he had stirred up could dissipate, a sliver of extremely thin flame flickered in mid-air, as if a curtain had been shaken, sweeping away all the dust, which then burned to ashes.

Amidst the pattering ashes and the crumbling ruins, a woman with strong facial features coughed a few times and struggled to her feet. She looked extremely disheveled; her robe, adorned with auspicious beasts symbolizing her status, was burned with large holes, and her magnificent cloak was reduced to a few charred fragments.

Her identity is obvious: the Grand Protector who oversees all affairs in Mangxing Plain and commands millions of people in the area.

The woman spat out a bloody saliva. In the depths of her eyes, a captivating light flickered, and dangerous wedge-shaped symbols emerged one after another, gradually overlapping.

The two sides were tens of thousands of meters apart. For psychics of this level, they were practically within arm's reach, if not intimately connected.

However, Song Shi completely ignored the spiritual energy that was right in front of him, which had reached the fourth level of [Sublimation]. Instead, he looked around before looking at the other party again.

"I advise you not to move."

Song Shi spoke in a calm tone.

But with just this one sentence, the Grand Protector grunted, and the spiritual energy he had been preparing to unleash remained unreleased for a long time.

Every pore of hers, every thought she has, is conveying the same message!
—If you move even the slightest bit more, you will die and your life will be extinguished!
Death is not a problem. As a fourth-ring [Consensus], she possesses multiple spiritual energy skills such as "Dividing the Soul into Myriad Transformations", "Jade Cicada Shedding", and "Refining Spirit to Manifestation". Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and she has more than ten ways to save her life.

However, right now, she could clearly feel the chilling sense of crisis emanating from the other party, a terrifying and unprecedented ferocity capable of utterly destroying all backup plans and slaughtering everyone to the last drop!

The fifth ring. [Dayuan]. Her heart sank; she had been a step too slow.

[Consensus] The methods and approaches are diverse, and if one is solely focused on avoiding war, it can be considered the most superior path. [Dayuan] claims to be in harmony with heaven and man, unifying internal and external forces, but it still cannot stop the inevitable in the event of a direct confrontation.

Once the conflict drags on and the groundwork is laid, with both internal and external interference, the success rate of achieving "disintegration" or "distraction" through "consensus" will plummet.

But the opponent is at the fifth level—and not even a beginner at the fifth level!

“Nan Dou.” She uttered two words: “—Song Shi.”

Even though it was just a sudden attack from the sky, the flames sealed off the area in an instant, along with their unparalleled destructive power.
In a flash of thought, she went over the cards in her hand.

The blessing of the [Surveillance Network] is not enough. It can indeed bring immediate combat power. Ideally, a fourth-ring psionicist who receives the blessing can indeed fight against a fifth-ring psionicist.

The premise is the entire territory of the Eastern Continent Republic, not just this small corner of Mangxing Plain.

Besides
She closed her eyes, then suddenly opened them again.

With the open-source release of Singularity Technology's "Base Reality Overwrite," Taixuke of Depth 5, operating it in conjunction with the [Monitoring Network], should also be a force to be reckoned with.

With the battle raging on the front lines and high-level combatants gathered, only Taixu Ke is capable of arriving immediately to provide support—she must try to hold out until reinforcements arrive!

At that very moment, Song Shi officially unleashed the Heavy Slaughter technique and slashed down without hesitation!
All of the Grand Protector's thoughts vanished in an instant, leaving only one warning sign—

This attack...cannot be stopped!
But before you die, you have to try to hold on.

She gritted her teeth and stood up, but a strange presence appeared behind her, grabbed her shoulder, and pulled her back abruptly.

Instead of her, a hand met the descending sky!
