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

Purple Extreme City, the highest holy city of the Purple Spirit Clan, now resembles a hedgehog covered in heavy armor.

Three hundred and sixty high-energy shields operate day and night, with energy barriers hundreds of meters thick, inverted above the city.

On the city wall, hundreds of heavy Purple Annihilation Cannons were lined up densely, their dark muzzles pointing straight to the sky.

That was a destructive weapon that could only be equipped on the Ancient Nightmare flagship, and there were hundreds of them in Purple Extreme City.

At this moment, Ziji City unleashed its full potential.

In the sky, thousands of amethyst falcons formed a formation, scanning the surrounding airspace in circles.

Inside the underground command center of the Parliament Temple.

Second Councilor Hughes sat in the main seat, his face hidden in the dim light.

The fifth, sixth, and seventh members of parliament stood on either side, creating a suffocatingly oppressive atmosphere.

"It's been a full twenty days."

The fifth councilor's voice was dry.

"Shen Tian seems to have vanished into thin air; we haven't even caught a glimpse of him. Where is he?"

"Does he know we'll definitely have a large security presence, and therefore not plan to come?"

"Could he be secretly amassing power, preparing for a full-scale attack on Ziji City?"

"That's what the seventh member of parliament said."

"impossible."

Hughes shook his head, his tone resolute.

"I suspect his target isn't Ziji City at all."

"He destroyed Tianjiyuan to disrupt our war supplies. Tianyun Prefecture's foundation is too weak; he's using this as a diversionary tactic. If he wants to continue stalling for time, he can only attack those high-value war industries."

"Although Ziji City is a holy city, it now only has civilians and garrison troops. There are no production lines or mines here. He can't gain any substantial benefits from coming here except to vent his anger."

"Brahma is personally overseeing those resource zones. If Shen Tian goes to confront Brahma, he will definitely not gain anything. The fact that he is not showing up now shows that he is aware of this and dares not act rashly."

Listening to Hughes's analysis, the tense nerves of the several councilors finally relaxed a little.

"Is staying in Purple City the safest place for us?"

The sixth councilor breathed a sigh of relief.

Hughes snorted coldly, "Of course."

"As long as we hold the Holy City and wait for him to lose his patience and attack the resource zone, where he will be killed by Brahma, the initiative in this war will be back in our hands."

"Or rather, once our Purple Spirit Clan's massive war machine is running again, and our army marches out, it's only a matter of time before we crush the Heavenly Fortune Prefecture."

The atmosphere in the hall was noticeably more relaxed.

Yes, no matter how strong Shen Tian is, he is ultimately just one person. Faced with the Purple Spirit Clan, who have retreated into a defensive posture and completely abandoned the outer perimeter, what can he do?

Just when they thought the situation had temporarily stabilized.

Above Purple Extreme City, the dark purple energy shield, hailed as the strongest defense of the Purple Spirit Clan, suddenly rippled violently.

It was as if a black crack had suddenly appeared on a calm mirror.

A fifth-rank guard captain stationed on the city wall looked up, his eyes suddenly widening.

The sky has cracked open.

The void rift, stretching for a thousand meters, resembled a dark eye hanging upside down above Ziji City, slowly opening.

The biting cold poured down along the line of sight, instantly causing the temperature on the city wall to plummet below freezing.

Immediately afterwards, a tall and slender figure stepped out from the void of darkness.

It was a human, holding a battle sword in his hand, the blade gleaming with a chilling sharpness.

Shen Tian.

He hovered at a height of ten thousand meters above Ziji City, looking down at this enormous city.

The aura of a mid-stage seventh rank cultivator was released without reservation.

boom!

The air seemed to be mourning.

The clicking sounds blended together.

Black liquid metal suddenly gushed out from Shen Tian's chest, spreading rapidly down his neck and arms throughout his body.

In the blink of an eye, a set of heavy armor exuding an ancient aura completely enveloped him.

The armor was jet black, with ancient bronze-colored divine patterns flowing across its surface, their brightness alternating with his breathing.

The helmet section transformed into a hideous, demonic face.

The eyes on the mask revealed two piercing gazes that seemed to disregard the world and all living beings.

The nascent form of the laws governing artifacts, which was being nurtured within this sacred weapon of creation, was resonating with Shen Tian's killing intent.

The immense blood and qi of the Eternal Sacred Body, the eighteen true martial arts intents, and the swirling power of heaven and earth surrounding it.

They were perfectly controlled by the Asura Holy Armor, and finally transformed into a substantial pressure that spread outward in a ring shape, pouring down from the sky like a waterfall.

Boom!

A tremendous roar echoed through the sky.

The 360 ​​shields above Ziji City began to tremble under Shen Tian's pure pressure.

The fifth-rank guard captain on the city wall suddenly collapsed to the ground, his knees buckling.

He tried to stand up, but found the air around him as heavy as mercury, and even the strength to lift his weapon was completely drained.

The surrounding defenders collapsed to the ground in droves, their chests heaving violently, like a school of fish out of water.

The piercing sound of air raid sirens ripped through the city's deathly silence.

Red warning lights flashed rapidly across all the streets.

The tens of millions of Purple Spirit Clan civilians hiding in the underground bunkers stared blankly up at the Asura figure that stood above the Holy City through the transparent dome.

One person pushed the entire defense line of the Purple Spirit Holy City to the brink of collapse.

The familiar fear once again gripped the hearts of every member of the Purple Spirit Clan.

Inside the underground command center of the Parliament Temple, there was a deathly silence.

The members of parliament who had been confidently analyzing the situation just moments before now looked deathly pale.

The fifth member of parliament's Adam's apple bobbed.

Staring wide-eyed in horror, he looked at the scene before him in disbelief.

Unexpectedly, Shen Tian's attack once again surprised everyone!

Shen Tian has actually set foot in Ziji City once again!

Hughes clenched his fists tightly.

Tianjiyuan has been reduced to ashes, and Ziji City has no war potential whatsoever.

This kid risked being surrounded to kill his way here. Could it be that he really just wanted to massacre the city to vent his anger?

"Activate all the Purple Annihilation Cannons on the city wall! Lock onto him! Fire!"

Hughes's face contorted as he issued the command.

His figure transformed into a dazzling purple streak of light, breaking through thousands of meters of underground soil and hurtling towards the surface.

Hughes hovered at the innermost edge of the shield, looking up at Shen Tian, ​​who was ten thousand meters above the ground, through the thick energy barrier.

"Shen Tian!"

Hughes's voice echoed like rolling thunder across the sky above Purple Pole City.

"You actually dare to come here!"

Shen Tian stood in the void, the air currents stirring the black flames of nothingness around the Asura Armor.

He lowered his head slightly, looking down at the ninth-level councilors below, who resembled angry lions, and the Purple Annihilation Cannons that were pointing their cannons at him.

A contemptuous sneer came from beneath the helmet of the Asura Demon Mask.

Shen Tian's voice wasn't loud, but it easily pierced through the hundred-meter-thick shield and was clearly imprinted in the minds of tens of millions of Purple Spirit Clan members.

"Purple Spirit Clan, your strictest father has arrived."
