You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

Not so good.

A large amount of spiritual energy contained the injury with each breath.

But the madness in his mind only grew stronger, and his once clear thoughts became sluggish and blurry. Even the Great Qian enemy in front of him noticed something was wrong and sent the priest with him.

As for the soldiers in the southern moat, most of them had already been scattered by the enemy who rushed into the city.

"A bunch of unreliable people, I have to handle this myself."

Even Song Yan didn't notice the terrifying shockwave hidden beneath the angry curses. It was an inhuman roar that terrified both sides. Then, he looked up.

call!

Suddenly a dark shadow appeared overhead?

Feng Tianyin leaped down from the highest point of the city wall and slashed down with her spear, using gravitational potential energy to pierce his head.

Click!

How refined is Feng Tianyin's martial arts? She has gathered all of humanity's long experience in combat techniques into one, and is proficient in all eighteen weapons.

It was just a jump from the air aimed at a person, and it pierced through them instantly.

At this moment, he squatted on Song Yan's head, his legs bent in a violent downward motion, his hands tightly gripping the spear, the lower end of which had completely pierced through the city lord from top to bottom, the protruding spearhead embedded in the ground.

Otherwise, this body would have collapsed limply.

Everyone stared in disbelief, the entire hall fell silent, unable to believe that the high priest had killed such a powerful enemy with a single blow.

Was the sneak attack successful?

But so what? On the battlefield, swords and spears have no eyes. Everyone relies on their own abilities and a bit of luck. Clearly, the city lord is having a bad day.

However, Feng Tianyin showed no joy and instead lightly jumped and struck away.

"It has been hollowed out by subspace contamination."

These words were meant for everyone to hear, and upon hearing them, their faces darkened. For the Great Qian, worry was one thing, but fear was another; they were protected by the Heavenly Dao and wouldn't fear having their souls toyed with even in death. The people of the Southern Plains, however, were terrified, for they had long heard rumors of this.

The next moment, Song Yan, who should have been a corpse, moved, tilted his neck, and smiled through his wounds.

mistake..

"I am a warrior blessed by war, and I have long since transcended the mortal body."

The goal he had been pursuing all his life had finally been achieved. How could he not be excited? He laughed wildly, releasing all the pent-up emotions in his heart and feeling the surging power with great excitement.

My research is already ahead of its time.

The problem was that Terra's connection to the warp was insufficient, and various rituals and prayers went unanswered for a long time, whereas it had been fine two years ago.

The rise of psionic energy in the new classical era gave Song Yan an opportunity.

"I have transcended."

According to his theory, this is an upgrade within the category of extraordinary individuals, surpassing others of the same kind in various attributes. Only a further improvement in rank would be considered an "upgrade," like Feng Tianyin in front of him.

Immortal, indestructible, and inviolable, it is said to encompass all the beliefs of the Great Qian Dynasty. But is it really true?

"You know I won't let you go, so come on then."

The girl in silver armor beckoned, her purple eyes filled with endless indifference, causing Song Yan, whose power had been greatly amplified, to feel a chill run down his spine.

Let's fight!

He roared and unfurled his flags and spears, seemingly conjuring a whirlwind that swept across all directions, causing his troops to fall and retreat.

The force converged at a single point and pierced the powerful enemy.

Feng Tianyin dodged to the side, and the raging wind energy actually left a large crater with a diameter of two meters on the city wall. Soil and rocks flew everywhere, and the ground along the way collapsed and ravines appeared, which shows how fierce the force was.

"If you dodge again, the others will be in trouble."

Song Yan followed up with another move, but the spear lightly deflected his attack, causing him to lose his balance. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he threw a punch—

boom!

The precise hit to the jaw caused the head to shake, making the person dizzy and stagger.

"So you haven't completely overcome your weaknesses yet. There are still human physiological reactions and weaknesses in the human body structure."

"Impossible, I am immortal."

"It's just more durable."

As if to confirm his conclusion, the white waxwood spear lightly touched his left shoulder the next moment, instantly severing an arm, but the wound did not regenerate. On the contrary, his body was covered with a layer of red, and his muscles grew and swelled abnormally.

Despite its deformity, it is undergoing uncontrollable mutations, becoming increasingly inhuman in appearance.

Once the structural balance of the "human" aspect is disrupted, the monstrous aspect takes its place.

Facts speak louder than words; this kind of elevation is abnormal.

Everyone present, whether from the Southern Plains or the Great Qian side, instinctively took a few steps back to keep their distance. Their eerie appearance was truly frightening. It was best to maintain a safe distance and leave professional matters to professionals.

Rumble!

At the center of the battlefield, the two were less engaged in combat and more exchanging pure psionic bombardments, with ravines and craters constantly reshaping the streets as they went back and forth.

A single ripple could reduce a wooden house to ashes.

It's best not to interfere lightly.

Having reached a consensus, Daqian began the encirclement, completely blocking the city gates and supply routes. With morale low and the organization broken, the Nanyuan soldiers naturally either fled, died, or surrendered; after all, their leader had become a monster.

They were filled with fear, confusion, and disorientation, and the civilians on the streets also noticed the danger:

"As expected, the city lord has been researching those forbidden things all along!"

"I'm afraid we'll all become sacrifices to the monster, we're all doomed."

"No, as long as you embrace the faith of Heaven, nothing will happen."

"I don't trust anyone."

"Good luck to us. If the Great Qian Dynasty decides to massacre the city, we must hide well and at least protect our families."

"Given their style, they wouldn't go that far..."

The weak could only watch intently at the very center of the battlefield, where the fierce battle between the two would determine the future course of events. At this moment, the battle between Feng Tianyin and Song Yan reached its climax, afterimages intertwined with the raging wind, and destruction descended upon the city gates.

This place, which was originally where the largest forces of both sides were concentrated, has now become a no-man's land.

Anyone who dared to approach was either blown away or killed by the aftershocks.

Ping Pong Pong!

The crisp clang of weapons clashing was deafening, accompanied by a furious roar—Song Yan's hysterical screams.

He was furious, furious at Feng Tianyin's composure.

How could I not even be able to hurt him after giving so much?

Not only did it test the rumored divine power protecting its body, but every attack it received was dodged, blocked, or neutralized, making it impossible to break through its defenses. All its martial arts skills were rendered useless, leaving it weak and powerless.

Why can't I hit it?

The angrier Song Yan got, the more his body mutated, emanating a terrifying sense of oppression.

However, Feng Tianyin's penetration into the subspace had reached a critical point, and at the same time, the priests began to purify the pollution, further compressing the penetration into the subspace. Therefore, the enemy was exhausted and insignificant.

So there's no need to worry about unexpected events happening during the kill.

"Roar!"

Faced with yet another roar, she casually thrust out a spear, piercing straight into his chest and unleashing a torrent of psychic energy.

Song Yan stared blankly at the large hole in his chest, feeling a sense of powerless exhaustion. He no longer had any evil spiritual energy to supply him, like a kite with a broken string.

"You're just waiting for the right moment, but you've always been ahead of my path to enlightenment?"

Feng Tianyin nodded.

In fact, she had been on guard against further infiltration of the subspace, and it seems she had managed to contain it.

He then gave a self-deprecating smile, realizing that ultimately, he couldn't compare to the High Priest's divine blessing. His red body, bearing this regret, collapsed to its knees, instantly turning into a pile of mangled flesh.

Life force was completely drained, leaving only remnants of the soul.

The next moment, Feng Tianyin stepped over this insignificant pile of trash. It was her own fault, and it wasn't worth mentioning at all.

As the battle in the Southern Plains city-state drew to a close, Xia He began to focus on the battlefield.

【hint】

The acting leader, "Feng Tianyin," killed the new special clan member "Song Yan," dispelling the regional subspace threat.

[A psionic deterrent to the city-states of the Southern Plains]

It was up to its old tricks again, but the little robot was extremely efficient. The thoroughness of the cleanup impressed Xia He, who couldn't help but admire its reliability. The decisive blow had eliminated its stealthy infiltration.

Daqian seems to have anticipated this, at least it has a mechanism in place to disperse pollution.

Over the years, the priestly sanctuary and the academy have produced many results in the study of the extraordinary.

That's incredibly professional.

She had long suspected that a large-scale war might cause the warp to take advantage of the situation, which is why she came to check on the expedition later in the season. Sure enough, the war-loving Khorne faction did not miss the opportunity.

Fortunately, Feng Tianyin dealt with it in time, otherwise it could have easily spread. Her methods were clean and efficient, leaving no opportunity for the enemy to exploit.

"The Southern Plains city-state is nearing completion."

Xia He glanced at the progress bar and understood that complete control was only a matter of time; she might as well witness it return to the Great Qian Dynasty.

Set up special effects for playback in advance.

It's too frequent to personally descend every time.

So she picked up the keyboard and casually typed a line of code. Unless actively interfered with, the animation effects would play after the ceremony in the new city. She also added a random material library to ensure that there would be no repetition, which would be enough to make everyone happy.

Get it done.

This level of programming was second nature to her; after checking it once, she continued to focus on the battlefield.

The death of the city lord became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
