Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

When the first group of players arrived at the perimeter of Huang Sui's body, they were all dumbfounded.

Most of them had seen all sorts of giant creatures, but the visual impact of seeing a dragon corpse larger than a mountain in the void was completely different.

"This...this is huge..." one player exclaimed, tilting his head back with his mouth agape. "Those scales, each one is as big as a mountain."

"I heard that Huang Sui was the most promising candidate to become a transcendent being back in Season 6," a player next to him chimed in. "But how could his physique be so exaggerated? That's just too outrageous!"

"Nonsense, that was someone who almost became a transcendent being! You think he's like you?"

Some people couldn't contain themselves and wanted to fly towards Huang Sui's body.

As soon as they approached the outer perimeter, they were blocked by a group of Void Guardians.

There weren't many of those Void Guardians, only about a dozen. Their semi-transparent figures formed an arc in the void, their red eyes fixed on the players who tried to approach.

"This road is blocked." The lead Void Guardian's voice was calm and cold. "Anyone who approaches without authorization will be killed without mercy!"

The players looked at each other in bewilderment.

Most of them knew the rules of the Void Guardians—when they encountered escapees, they would at most extort some experience points or other items before releasing them.

But this time, the attitude was exactly the same as what the commenters in the live chat said.

"What's going on? Wasn't it just a matter of paying protection money before?"

"It seems there really is a big secret!"

"The more they forbid us from entering, the more valuable the items inside must be!"

Instead of being deterred, the players became even more excited.

They circled around Huang Sui's body from a distance, with people constantly trying to break through from different directions. Although each attempt was blocked by the Void Guardians, the defensive line was clearly being compressed little by little.

Just then, a blinding white light shone in the void.

Countless white wings unfolded in the darkness, like a surging cloud.

Gamir finally arrived, albeit belatedly!

She arrived in the void with the army of the angelic court. Thousands of angels were arranged in neat square formations, and holy light gathered in the void to form a dazzling sea of ​​stars.

Gamir himself stood at the forefront, twelve wings of light unfurled behind him, his silver armor gleaming coldly in the holy light, and he held a pair of longswords burning with golden flames in his hands.

She saw Huang Sui's body, looked at the illusory guards, and said nothing more.

"Follow me and charge!"

Her voice wasn't loud, but it clearly carried throughout the entire void.

The army of angels moved.

Countless beams of holy light descended from the sky, like a golden rainstorm, crashing against the Void Guardian's defenses.

Even the Void Guardians, who are immortal, had to retreat and avoid the onslaught of such dense holy light.

Jamil took the lead, holy light exploded on her body, and the Heavenly Punishment Domain was launched with a roar, a golden light shield covering an area of ​​a thousand meters in radius.

Within the domain, the attacks of the Void Guardians were weakened by more than half, while the attacks of the angels were amplified to the extreme, and most importantly, they were granted invincibility!

She broke through the defenses.

The holy sword cleaved through the last barrier, and she led her army of angels through the dragon's head of Huang Sui.

"Charge!" a player shouted as soon as he saw the angel rush in.

"Charge! The level nine city is right there!"

"Don't let the angels have it all!"

Casual players surged toward the breach like a tidal wave.

Although the Void Guardians tried their best to intercept, most of them were tied down by Gamir, and the defense line had many gaps.

Players swarmed in, penetrating Huang Sui's body in droves.

Of course, they paid a price—those who weren't spared by the Void Guardians were pulverized in the Void.

The Void Guardians happily reaped the experience points and loot...

---

Huang Sui's body.

Liu Nian stood hidden on the city wall of the ninth-level city, looking down at the surging tide in the distance.

The huge city currently only has Liu Nian as its sole inhabitant, making it eerily empty.

Liu Nian named this ninth-level city:

Ruins of the city.

He deliberately chose this name; it was a misleading name designed to give players a system notification when they attacked.

The city is a combination of two ruined cities and a golden royal city that was ravaged by battle, so it looks very dilapidated.

There are many obvious cracks in the city wall, some towers are only half-built, and there are many signs of collapse in the buildings on the street—which is very much in line with the feeling of an "ancient city that has been ravaged by time for thousands of years".

"The defense system is activated?"

"It's already activated." Mechagon's compound eyes flashed. "Three of the seven eternal engines are activated. Due to the indestructible nature of a level nine city, its defenses are very difficult to breach."

Liu Nian nodded. Even those who have transcended the level of beings cannot easily destroy a level nine city, let alone these adventurers.

He looked at the angels and players pouring in from afar, a slight smile playing on his lips.

There are also many Void Guardians inside Huang Sui's body. Since each Void Guardian has a different form and no name is given, players have no idea who the Void Guardians they are fighting are or whether they are the same one.

Gamir fought the Void Guardians again, and the angels behind her were excited when they saw the dilapidated city walls and the ruins of collapsed buildings.

It seems there really is a ruin of a level nine main city here!

"Sisters, let's take over this city!"

The angelic army surged forward like a tide, some entangled in battle with the Void Guardians, while others bypassed the guards and began their attempt to storm into the city!

However, protective shields suddenly rose up in the city.

"Does this city even have a defensive magic array?"

So they began to bombard the city with holy light, exploding into dazzling bursts of sparks.

However, the defenses of level nine cities are indeed very strong. The shields remain unmoved, but the "attacking" notification will constantly appear in the players' field of vision.

Some clever or powerful solo players also took the opportunity to rush up, throwing various skills at the shield, with explosions rising and falling.

A system notification pops up on each user's panel:

[System notification: You are attacking the ruins of the Dragonborn city. Please note that you have been marked as an enemy by the Dragonborn!]

"A descendant of the Dragon God?" One player paused, taken aback. "Isn't this the city of Huangsui?"

"Nonsense! Isn't Huang Sui a descendant of the Dragon God? The city is his city, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that!"

"Dragon Descendant...why does that name sound so familiar?"

"It seems the descendants of the Dragon God still exist, right?"

"Those are the current ones! They shouldn't have much to do with this Season 6, right?"

"Probably, just like demons have so many branches, maybe this dragon descendant is similar..."

"No matter what, there's definitely something good in there! Keep fighting!"
