Facing thousands of ferocious ants, he showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, his fighting spirit soared!

The next instant, Chen Yang opened his mouth and spat out a torrent of raging flames, which was the perfect and ultimate fire attribute divine power!

The raging fire instantly swept in all directions, the scorching heat baking the entire airspace. The approaching army ants were instantly engulfed by the flames, burned and exploded, their pitch-black bodies instantly burned to charred ashes!

Immediately afterwards, he quickly formed hand seals and waved them, and golden spiritual light fell from the sky, each ray of light carrying an incomparably sharp supreme sword intent!

Boom!

Golden light pierced the sky, and sharp blades cut through the air. Dozens of army ants within a ten-meter radius were instantly pierced through by the sword intent, dismembered and pulverized, without even a chance to struggle!

Chen Yang burst into laughter in mid-air, his heart brimming with boundless pride!

At this moment, he truly understood what it meant to be invincible among his peers! Although he had not yet taken the final half step to break through to the Golden Core stage, all four of his divine abilities had been perfectly combined, and his combat power had already overwhelmed ordinary Great Perfection Divine Ability Realm cultivators!

Slaughtering these army ants at the early stage of the Divine Power Realm was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables for him!

Chen Yang pressed down in mid-air with one hand, his palm controlling the rules of heaven and earth!

Metal, fire, earth, and wind attributes—the four perfect divine abilities erupted simultaneously in an instant. The four ultimate powers merged and complemented each other in mid-air, condensing into a terrifying hurricane covering an area of ​​dozens of feet!

Within the hurricane, golden blades filled the sky, flames roared, thick earth suppressed, and gales tore through! Lava and broken earth flew everywhere, and the four top-level rules of power stacked up layer upon layer, crushing everything in their path!

boom--!!!

A deafening roar echoed through the heavens and earth, causing the entire mountain forest to tremble violently!

In the blink of an eye, more than 700 ferocious army ants were completely crushed by the four elemental supernatural powers, turning into dust and disappearing into the world!

The remaining eight hundred or so army ants froze in mid-air, and the entire ant swarm came to a complete halt!

The ferocious beasts were completely dumbfounded, their dark ant-like eyes filled with extreme terror and bewilderment.

They could sense that the human cultivator's aura was not weak, but they never expected that just one person could wipe out half of their race!

The opponent alone is terrifying enough, and the other cultivators have not yet made a move. If the battle continues, their entire ant swarm will probably be completely wiped out!

Extreme fear swept over the ant colony. The remaining army ants dared not linger in the fight any longer. They instantly turned around, transformed into streaks of black shadows, and fled desperately into the depths of the mountains, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye!

With the crisis averted, Chen Yang swayed slightly, his posture relaxed and graceful, and landed steadily back on the deck of the flying boat.

Duan Zhengde and Eliza's pupils shrank sharply as they stared intently at Chen Yang, their faces blank and speechless, their minds momentarily empty.

Yang Hongyuan, Zhou Heng, and their group were completely dumbfounded, standing there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

Only Liu Qingxia was the first to recover, her beautiful eyes filled with tender light.

In her mind, Chen Yang was an invincible young man, but the combat power he displayed today still overturned her perception.

At this moment, Chen Yang was ridiculously powerful.

Liu Qingxia, with her slender figure, walked gracefully towards Chen Yang, a gentle smile playing on her lips, and said softly, "Husband, your strength has increased again."

Chen Yang threw his head back and laughed heartily, his confidence soaring. He gently took her small hand in his and said firmly, "So my wife, don't worry. Give me a little more time. Once I break through to the Golden Core stage, I will stand with you against the rules of heaven and earth!"

"I will never let you be forced to leave again. This time, I will protect you!"

Liu Qingxia nodded slightly, her clear, beautiful eyes filled with joy and peace of mind, and gently leaned against him.

Just as the two were enjoying their tender moment, dozens of figures sped towards them from the ground ahead, their steps quick and their momentum hurried.

The leader, with white hair and beard, and flowing robes, possessed an air of otherworldly elegance and composure. He was none other than Zhao Xianghe, the leader of the Resistance Alliance!

The earth-shattering shockwaves from the battle that had just taken place in the mountains and forests swept across several miles. Zhao Xiang and the people stationed at headquarters sensed it all and rushed over at full speed to investigate.

Upon seeing the approaching figure, Duan Zhengde immediately called out to signal the flying boat to descend slowly and land steadily on the flat ground.

As soon as the airship landed, Duan Zhengde rushed forward, his expression excited and his body trembling slightly. He grabbed Zhao Xianghe's hand tightly, then turned to Eliza, his voice trembling with excitement: "Alliance Leader Zhao! Look! Who is this?!"

Zhao Xianghe was eager to inquire about the origins of the battle just now, but upon hearing this, he subconsciously turned his head to look.

When his gaze fell upon Eliza's familiar face, Zhao Xianghe shuddered violently, his body stiffening instantly, and his pupils contracting sharply.

His eyes held a mixture of deep wariness, extreme shock, and incredulous doubt.

Eliza stepped forward slowly, her demeanor dignified and gentle. She nodded slightly to Zhao Xianghe and spoke softly, "Lord Zhao, after so many years of serving as your subject, do you not even recognize me?"

Zhao Xianghe trembled violently, his teeth clenched, his voice hoarse and strained: "Of course I recognize it! But I don't understand, Your Majesty... why do you forcibly promote the Omnipotent God Cult throughout the country? You clearly know that the so-called Omnipotent God Cult is nothing but a disguise for the Holy Fire Cult!"

Seeing the deeply misunderstood old minister, Eliza shook her head helplessly and explained softly, "Lord Zhao, we have known each other as ruler and subject for many years. You should know my character and integrity better than anyone. How could I possibly aid and abet evil and promote the Holy Fire Religion to wreak havoc on the people?"

"I was unfortunately poisoned before, but I barely escaped death and managed to get away. The one who is now sitting in the palace of Saint-Denis, promoting her doctrines, is not me at all. It's an imposter, a fake queen!"

Upon hearing the truth, Zhao Xianghe was instantly dumbfounded, his mouth agape, speechless for a long time.

The next moment, this old minister, who had devoted half his life to the country, burst into tears. With a thud, he solemnly knelt before Eliza, his voice choked with sobs and filled with remorse: "I knew it! Your Majesty is by no means a scourge to the country! I never imagined that Your Majesty, with your unparalleled cultivation at the Golden Core Realm, would be secretly plotted against and imprisoned. It is truly unbelievable!"

Eliza sighed softly and stepped forward to help him up. "I still don't know what kind of bizarre poison could seal my Golden Core cultivation and ambush me. Lord Zhao, please get up quickly. This is not the time for sentimentality. We must discuss countermeasures as soon as possible, expose the false empress's true colors, thwart the Holy Fire Cult's conspiracy, and save the people of the nation!"

Zhao Xianghe quickly stood up, wiped away his tears, and his eyes instantly became incredibly determined. He spoke in a deep voice, "With Her Majesty the Empress's reappearance, our confidence in turning the tide has greatly increased! I already have a feasible plan in mind!"

Eliza raised her hand slightly: "Please tell me in detail."

Zhao Xianghe gathered his thoughts and quickly said, "Your Majesty, the entire nation is currently being deceived. If we publicly expose the fake empress's identity and reveal your true face and the truth, we will surely gain the support of countless cultivators and common people!"

"Currently, the Golden Knights under the Imperial Palace and the Round Table Council are vying for control of the Sacred Flame Altar! A public election will be held soon, and the winner will take control of the Sacred Flame Altar, serve the Empress, and become a trusted confidant of the false Empress!"

"My plan is for us all to infiltrate the Golden Knights, feign allegiance, and wait for the right moment to expose the false empress's true colors!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Zhengde frowned slightly and shook his head, expressing his objection: "Alliance Leader, this matter needs further consideration. The Golden Knights are strictly factional and highly controlled; they may not necessarily give important positions to outsiders like us."

"On the other hand, I am familiar with many of the high-level members of the roundtable conference, and I am also an old friend of yours, Brother Zhao. In my opinion, if we infiltrate the roundtable conference, we will have fewer constraints, greater freedom, and can act more prudently."

Zhao Xianghe shrugged helplessly, a bitter look on his face: "Brother Duan, you don't know this. Several powerful individuals of unknown origin have secretly infiltrated the Golden Knights; they're likely experts from the Holy Fire Cult. The Round Table Conference is doomed to lose this competition; there's no point in us joining!"
