Chapter 270 Lone Battle
The massive horde of bio-beasts, skeleton legions, elemental creatures, and steel constructs, which had been poised to attack, surged forth like a flood bursting its banks.

They roared deafeningly as they surged toward the deep, dark, circular passageway.

They are stepping stones thrown into the unknown world, and cannon fodder used to deplete the enemy's strength.

Seeing that most of the cannon fodder and wizards had already crawled inside, Jemin took a deep breath and no longer hesitated.

He rode two towering black giants, following closely behind the vanguard of the torrent, and plunged headlong into the spatial gate that seemed capable of swallowing all light.

The journey was far more difficult than expected.

Dionysius Spencer had already informed them that there seemed to be some kind of powerful seal or suppressive force field on the other side, preventing the space gate from fully opening.

He needs to manipulate the power of the floating city to continuously fight against and expand the passage, but in the early stages, the first people to cross over will probably encounter some "minor troubles".

Jemin soon found out what the so-called "minor troubles" were.

The moment he stepped into the passage, Jemin felt a strong stickiness coming from all directions, as if he were walking in glue.

The surroundings were not the usual dazzling lights of a spatial passage, but rather filled with chaotic darkness and distorted energy turbulence.

These turbulent currents, mixed with fragments of broken space and alien energy, constantly assaulted the travelers within the spatial gate.

boom!
laugh……

Dense energy turbulence struck the black giant's massive body, producing various strange noises.

However, after more than 30 years of fighting, the Black Giant Body Forging Technique has continuously evolved and adapted, making it extremely resistant to spatial distortion damage related to the wind element.

Those energy surges, as long as they do not exceed a certain critical threshold, are absorbed and transformed by the Black Giant's unique body structure, becoming negligible supplies.

Jemin stood firmly on the black giant's shoulder, his body enveloped in a faint shield that deflected the few attacks that slipped through.

Like a rock in a raging torrent, he was protected by the black giant and resolutely advanced towards the darkness at the other end of the passage.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe just a moment, or maybe a long ordeal, but the resistance ahead suddenly lightened!
"arrive!"

Jemin's spirits lifted, and he spurred the black giant to accelerate, breaking through the last spatial barrier.

However, the moment his feet touched the land of this other world, even with Jemin's composure, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The anticipated fierce battle between the vanguard legion and the native creatures did not materialize.

What came into view was an incredibly grand yet eerily silent scene—a colossal altar surrounded by countless humanoid creatures resembling a combination of mantises and lizards, stretching all the way to the horizon!

They seemed to be in a period of silence, a kind of collective ritual, with countless eyes focused on the uninvited guests who had just "broken in," filled with astonishment, confusion, and rapidly rising hostility.

He himself, along with the two black giants, became the only outlier and focal point in this silent ocean.

Jemin immediately realized that because of the strong spatial resistance he and the Black Giant had gained through body tempering techniques, they were least affected inside the spatial gate.

Although they were among the last to enter the portal, they were actually the first to cross the teleportation barrier.

The massive vanguard legion seemed to be struggling through that narrow and unstable spatial passage, unable to keep up in time.

Even with his strong will, Jieming's lips twitched slightly as he faced a scene that was clearly hostile to him and watched by millions.

The "declaration" that I made unconsciously in my excitement during the moment of crossing the barrier now seemed particularly abrupt.

"This is really going to be hilarious," he thought helplessly.

"On the bright side, does this mean my resistance to spatial forces is ranked first in the entire expeditionary force?"

While trying to find some solace in his predicament, Jemin was also quickly searching for a way out of the predicament.

His gaze quickly swept across the entire area, finally settling on the four storm-eye-shaped clouds above the altar, emanating a chilling and oppressive aura.

"These creatures in front of us are manageable, but the real threat is probably those four..."

In the blink of an eye, Jemin didn't hesitate for a moment.

He maintained a calm demeanor, even deliberately making the dark blue flames in the black giant's eyes burn more intensely to bolster his presence.

While silently connecting to the magic network terminal through mental power, a set of extremely strong spatial coordinate signals were sent out like a beacon fire!
This signal will guide the wizard legion, who are still struggling to move forward in the passage, to accelerate their rush toward the breakthrough that has just been "pried open".

Facing the enemy alone, all he needed to do was hold this bridgehead, even if only for a moment.

……

……

The thirty-meter-tall black giants, like two pitch-black iron towers, stood atop the altar of another world, creating an unparalleled visual impact.

Below, hundreds of millions of holy servants looked up at this behemoth, whispering among themselves a mixture of amazement and fear.

Even the Holy Spirits, who are usually high and mighty, now had solemn expressions.

From these two silent black colossi, they felt a pressure far beyond their own level, a kind of power that was almost... divine!

As for Jemin, who stood on the shoulders of the Black Giant?

His relatively "small" body and "weak" energy fluctuations were seen by the Holy Servants and Holy Spirits as nothing more than insignificant appendages of powerful beings, or even some kind of "parasite," and were completely ignored.

The essence of the wizarding path lies in leveraging knowledge to unleash power; its inherent terror is often difficult to perceive upon first encounter.

Of course, the vast majority of living beings and civilizations do not have the opportunity to face it a second time.

"A new world! It must be a new world!" After the initial shock, a Holy Spirit's eyes blazed with burning greed.

Although the black giant was strong, it seemed to be a notch below the four holy divine pressures in the sky that were like the embodiment of the world's will.

What abundant resources must a world possess to be able to nurture such creatures?!
Many Holy Spirits at their peak were also very ambitious. If they could kill or even capture these two giant beasts, they might find an opportunity to break through to the God level!
As holy spirits who have risen through countless battles, they have their own pride.

They firmly believed that even if the enemy were stronger, their skill, numbers, and... the four gods standing in the sky would be enough to handle them. "Suffer! Wail! Repent! Because of your mistakes, your world will be conquered by us!" A hot-tempered holy spirit laughed wildly.

The bone blade on his arm shot out, and the power of wind wrapped around it, transforming it into a ten-meter-long giant blade.

His figure transformed into a streak of azure light, traversing a distance of a thousand meters, and with an indomitable momentum, he fiercely slashed at one of the black giants!

then……

Bang!

Like casually swatting an annoying flying insect, the black giant's enormous hand moved with a speed completely disproportionate to its size, striking the streak of blue light with pinpoint accuracy.

The bursting blood mist and bone fragments resembled tiny fireworks.

Jemin picked at his ear and muttered under his breath, "Gibberish, can't understand a word... Holy crap! So brave?!"

He simply couldn't understand where someone whose energy level was clearly much lower got the courage to launch such a suicidal charge.

“However, if the opponents are all such reckless brutes, it will be more troublesome to defend against them…” Jemin frowned slightly.

Looking down at the group of humanoid monsters averaging five meters tall, he worried that their reckless attacks, regardless of casualties, would affect the stability of the spatial gate.

Fortunately, things didn't develop as he had imagined.

The other Holy Spirits' expressions changed upon seeing this. They hadn't expected that the renowned Holy Spirit couldn't even withstand a single blow from the black monster.

The Holy Spirits exchanged glances and immediately understood each other's meaning: "Attack together!"

They simultaneously extended their bone blades and launched a coordinated attack on the two black giants.

Seeing that more than a dozen monsters were attacking him at once, Jemin thought for a moment and then conveyed a command to the two black giants at his feet through a soul contract:
"Hold back a bit, engage them, and try to buy them as much time as possible!"

The black giants roared, then pretended to fight back and forth with the insects.

Meanwhile, high in the sky, the thoughts of the four holy beings were rapidly exchanging.

"For a moment just now... I thought 'that one' had awakened!" A wave of divine thought filled with fear came through.

"Calm down! Their life structures are completely different; they don't come from 'that world.' 'That one' cannot be resurrected," another relatively calm divine thought reassured.

"Could it be that the spatial gate has mutated due to its long-term closure and connected to an unknown realm?" the third divine thought speculated.

"In any case, the unfamiliar is dangerous." The last divine thought made a decisive statement, "Clear them, reinforce the seal, and ensure absolute safety. We have already reached the pinnacle; there is no need for further risks."

A consensus was reached after a brief exchange.

Immediately, a calm yet supremely majestic voice, like divine decree, resounded deep within the souls of all Holy Spirits and servants:
"kill him."

Those three simple words were like igniting a powder keg!
"An oracle! It's an oracle!"

"For the Holy Spirit!"

The millions of saints instantly erupted in jubilation, their fervent faith overriding their fear of the black giant.

The dozen or so Holy Spirits who were initially observing cautiously were instantly filled with determination and killing intent!
The divine decree has been issued and cannot be questioned!
"Go together!"

More than a dozen powerful auras erupted suddenly, and the power of wind swirled around them like a tangible vortex, while the bone blades gleamed with a deadly cold light.

The Holy Spirits unleashed their trump cards, launching a coordinated attack from different angles, like a net stretching across the sky, upon the two black giants!

This time, they held nothing back.

However, their offensive has not yet fully unfolded...

hum...

A strange buzzing sound rang out, and thousands of crystal runes appeared behind Jemin, who was standing on the black giant's shoulder.

They are layered upon each other, arranged into a huge, complex, slowly rotating, dazzling halo of light—the "Great Aurora"!
The next moment, it was like a galaxy bursting its banks!

An indescribably dense barrage of energy beams erupted from the "Great Light Phase," each one precisely locking onto a charging Holy Spirit!

"Do not!!!"

"What's this?!"

Before the horrified eyes of the Holy Spirits, their proud wind power shield shattered like paper, their concentrated attack was instantly disintegrated, and their bodies were torn apart and vaporized in a dazzling yet deadly stream of light...

With just one volley, more than a dozen powerful Holy Spirits were reduced to ashes!
At this moment, all the holy servants, including the four holy gods in the sky, fixed their gazes on Jemin.

They finally realized that the "little one" they had overlooked was the truly terrifying existence!

But divine pronouncements are as firm as mountains!
Driven by fervent faith, the holy army, as vast as a boundless ocean, roared with earth-shattering fury.

Like a flood bursting its banks, they launched a full-scale attack on the center of the altar, on Jemin and the two black giants, without fear of death!

Faced with the onslaught of this massive crowd of millions, the slight casualness on Jemin's face vanished, replaced by absolute calmness.

The radiance of the "Great Aura" behind him grew ever brighter, preparing him for this tough battle.

Suddenly, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Because behind him, the enormous circular spatial gate once again emitted intense yet stable fluctuations.

An aura as powerful as a torrent of steel is surging forth from it!

The wizard's army has arrived.
