I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Wind City, with its sheer cliff stretching across the edge of the wilderness, is a veritable Great Wall of Steel.

The surface of the super-heavy alloy city wall, which is hundreds of meters high, is covered with crisscrossing burn marks and gaps left by giant beast claws.

Thirty large-caliber cannons were lined up along the top of the city wall, their barrels pointing straight at the distant sky.

The sirens echoed over the cliffs of Wind City.

This was the highest-level warning from the Sky Tower in Tianyun Town; the piercing buzzing tore apart the original stillness of the wilderness.

Inside the city walls, countless gears and heavy bearings meshed together, and thousands of tons of armor plates were pushed up layer by layer, reinforcing the front-line defense positions.

Inside the highest command post of Fengcheng, Zhang Yue rested his arms on the sand table.

The holographic projection clearly depicted the enemy's advance route.

Those crimson dots, representing high-energy reactions, surged toward the Wind City defense line like a flood bursting its banks.

"Ten thousand Blood Demons, they really think highly of us."

Zhang Yue's voice came through the command channel steadily.

There was no fear, only a ferocity unleashed by a sudden surge of rage.

Over the past few months, the Wind City Breaking Army Division has undergone a comprehensive upgrade.

They not only turned the occupied area upside down, but also tempered the minds of these soldiers into steel.

They dared to directly annihilate even hundreds or thousands of beasts, so how could they be intimidated by a group of blood demons?

Seventh defense zone.

Rows of warriors from the Po Jun Si, clad in black armor, were already lined up in formation.

The wind lashed against their dark gray visors.

There was no whispering, no pre-battle panic; only the synchronized drawing of swords filled the air.

At the very front of this solemn formation, Li Haoran held a battle sword in one hand.

Those eyes, which had always carried a hint of frivolity and nonchalance, were now filled with a cold, sharp intensity.

A few months ago, he was just a pampered young master of the Li family in Tianyun City.

In order to secure a so-called prestigious position, he even attempted to bribe Inspector Zhou Xuan with a Marrow Cleansing Pill.

For him, the front line was nothing more than a stage to build his resume.

"Thinking back to myself back then, I was such a damn clown."

After months of fighting, he has broken through from the peak of the second tier to the mid-stage of the third tier.

This is not a superficial realm cultivated through family elixirs, but true combat power forged through countless battles in Black Rock Valley, Red Willow Forest, and after being torn apart by alien beasts.

In this hellish, occupied zone, no one cared whether he was the eldest son of the Li family or not.

The beast's claws and teeth will not become dull because of his background.

The survival rules that veteran Zhao Tiezhu taught him with his fists and blood completely crushed the last layer of arrogance that remained in him as a scion of a noble family.

"Captain, the squad is assembled."

"Ready to join the battle at any time."

The voice of teammate Wang Kai came from behind.

This young man, like Li Haoran, was a spoiled brat from Tianyun City.

In the first battle, he was so scared that he wet his pants and almost had his internal organs ripped out by the Wind Wolf.

His eyes now reveal both composure and ruthlessness.

Li Haoran didn't turn around, but simply reached out and patted the several high-explosive grenades hanging at his waist.

Are you nervous?

"If it were before, I might have been so scared my legs would have gone weak."

Wang Kai chuckled softly.

"But I even dare to kick a fifth-tier beast king a couple of times."

The veteran Zhao Tiezhu next to him spat on the ground.

His battle sword, riddled with nicks, was beyond repair.

Now, he is holding a Grade A battle sword mass-produced in Forge City.

With the formidable production capacity of Forge City, A-grade battle knives no longer require contribution points to exchange for, becoming a standard item for everyone.

Li Haoran locked his gaze on the horizon ahead, where a dark red sandstorm was advancing towards Wind City at a speed of thirty meters per second.

Below the city wall, ten thousand heavily armored fortresses from Forge City had their tracks firmly gripping the ground.

The war is about to start.

Just then, Li Haoran suddenly felt his heart skip a beat.

This sense of stagnation wasn't just felt by him, but also by all the Po Jun Si warriors present.

This feeling is familiar.

Just like when he first stepped onto the battlefield, he felt his body getting stronger!

At the summit of Kunlun, thousands of miles away, Shen Tian's red talent [Eternal Overlord Body] was upgraded.

The Ancient Divine Elephant and the Undying Divine Demon Body have disappeared.

The exclusive talent slot for the [Slaughter Commander] has also been automatically replaced with [Eternal Overlord Body].

Li Haoran's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Boom!"

A muffled thud, comparable to the heavy hammer of a war drum, erupted from his chest.

The violent energy surged wildly into his limbs and bones through the major arteries.

Li Haoran let out a low roar, gripping his battle sword tightly, as if his muscles were about to be torn apart at that moment.

Wang Kai, standing to the side, nearly collapsed to his knees.

"It's so hot... Captain... My bones are burning!"

Wang Kai gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead.

Li Haoran simply didn't have the energy to answer.

He was horrified to discover that the blood in his body was undergoing a rapid transformation.

Fine, purplish-gold specks of light were extracted from the originally bright red blood.

These points of light exude an aura of destruction, yet possess an incomparably powerful vitality.

This feeling is even stronger than before!

It's gotten even stronger!

Even if it's only one percent of the power of creation, it's still a devastating blow to these ordinary third- or even second-tier martial artists!

It's not just them.

On the walls of Fengcheng, the bodies of all the Po Jun Si warriors were shimmering with a visible purple-gold light.

The immense energy and blood converged into a visible pillar of light, shooting straight into the sky.

Li Haoran took a deep breath.

He felt as if his body was a compressed high-explosive bomb, capable of tearing everything in front of him apart with his bare hands with just a little force.

The 1% attribute of eternal body grants them an extremely exaggerated ability to withstand attacks and self-heal.

His realm at the mid-stage of the third tier remained unchanged, but his physical strength had reached an extremely terrifying level.

It can tear apart beasts of the same level without lifting a finger!

"Captain... I feel like... I could punch that thing to pieces."

Wang Kai slowly stood up, staring at the five-meter-tall blood-machine symbiote approaching from afar. His eyes were devoid of any fear, only filled with a fanatical desire for violence.

He clenched his fists, and faint lines even appeared on the knuckles of his hands.

It wasn't just the soldiers who felt the changes.

Beneath the cliffs of Wind City, a crimson torrent of steel has already surged into a two-kilometer radius.

The exhaust vents on the backs of the thousands of Blood Machine Symbiotes in the first row spewed out seven-meter-long, ghostly blue tail flames.

The heavy hexagonal tracks crushed the boulders along the way, and the 300mm caliber cannons on both arms completed charging. Thousands of scarlet high-energy beams tore through the air, carrying destructive heat, and bombarded the Wind City walls.
