The red mist dissipated in the sword light, the scales of the Flame Snake cracked into spider-web-like cracks, and dark golden blood dripped like magma, burning white smoke on the charred rock ground. Lin Ji's figure flickered in the space-time domain, and every appearance was accompanied by the fatal slash of the Settling Sun Sword.

"Roar--"

The fire snake roared in pain, and its tail swept across, breaking a rock peak in half, and the rubble fell on Lin Ji like a rainstorm. Lin Ji did not move, and his sword intent turned into a barrier, crushing the rubble into powder before it got close to him. He pinched his left hand, and the clouds above the abyss suddenly surged, and countless water-blue rays condensed into chains, wrapping around the giant snake's seven inches.

The chain tightened, and the struggle of the Flame Snake made the rock wall tremble, but it could not break free. Lin Ji seized the opportunity, and the Sunset Sword turned into a green vine, spreading along the chain and piercing into the wound of the giant snake. The vines frantically absorbed its vitality, and the body of the giant snake shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"king!"

At the bottom of the abyss, three martial saint-level monsters finally couldn't hold back and roared into the sky. A six-winged red-scaled falcon flapped its wings, creating a hurricane; a pitch-black lava giant ape beat its chest and spewed flames; and the last, a slightly smaller fire snake, dived into the magma, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

Lin Ji sneered and disappeared suddenly. The next moment, he appeared behind the red-scaled falcon through space teleportation. The Residual Sun Sword pierced through its head, and the sword energy burst out, crushing its soul. The falcon's body fell heavily into the magma, splashing a raging wave of fire.

The lava giant ape roared and pounced, Lin Ji did not dodge, the space-time domain unfolded, and the giant ape's movements suddenly became slow as if it was stuck in a quagmire. He turned the sword and slashed out dozens of sword qi, cutting off the giant ape's limbs. The last sword qi pierced its heart and ended its life.

"hiss--"

The lurking fire snake took the opportunity to rush out of the magma, and its fangs went straight to Lin Ji's throat. Lin Ji was prepared, and his left hand was clenched, and a water curtain appeared out of thin air. The fire snake crashed into it and was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture. He flicked his fingers lightly, and the ice sculpture shattered, and the fire snake turned into countless ice crystals and dissipated.

In just a short moment, all three Martial Saint-level monsters fell. Fear finally emerged in the eyes of the Fire Snake, and it suddenly burst out with all its strength, breaking free from the chains, its mouth wide open, and a blood-red demon pill spewed out. The inner pill burst out with dazzling light, illuminating the entire Miasma Moon Abyss as bright as day, turning into a destructive beam of light that swept across the sky!

Lin Ji's pupils shrank slightly, and the space-time domain was fully operational. His figure flashed continuously, narrowly avoiding the beam of light. Even so, the aftermath still pushed him back hundreds of meters, and his chest was filled with blood. When he stabilized his body, the giant snake had already fled to the bottom of the abyss with the remaining monsters, and the red mist gathered again, covering the entrance tightly.

"Quite decisive."

Lin Ji wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and did not continue chasing. The Fire Snake was too tenacious and it would be impossible to kill it in a short time.

He sensed the spiritual power in his body and found that it had been consumed by nearly half, and the direction of the Holy Church was still unknown. He raised his head and looked towards the direction of Hongxia City with a deep gaze.

"It's about time to go back."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the night sky.

……

Over Hongxia City, ten dazzling fire meteors tore through the clouds at a speed of 30 Mach, dragging the tail of death. Yue Shanwu's pupils shrank suddenly, and the array in his hand hummed and trembled. The spiritual patterns of the city defense array were as bright as daylight the moment the missiles touched the barrier.

"Is this the intercontinental missile from Planet Aquamarine?"

When the first missile hit the dome-shaped light curtain, the blinding white light engulfed half the sky. The shock wave created spider-web-like cracks on the surface of the formation. The second and third missiles hit the same spot in succession, and the cracks spread like blood vessels. The formation scroll in Ye Zizhen's hand ignited with green smoke, and when the seventh missile fell, she heard a crisp sound like glass breaking above her head.

"The spiritual power of the east side array is overloaded!"

Ouyang Yun's communication talisman exploded in Yue Shanwu's palm. The words floating in the talisman ash had not yet dissipated when the last three nuclear bombs formed a triangle and smashed towards the west city wall.

Yue Shanwu's scabbard slammed heavily on the ground, and the spare spiritual stones buried in the base of the city wall burst at the same time. The vast spiritual power poured into the eye of the formation along the ground veins, and the barrier that was about to collapse suddenly thickened by three inches, withstanding the last round of bombardment. In the smoke and dust, Yue Shanwu smiled.

"It's quite interesting. As far as I know, after the fusion of the two worlds, it is difficult to find intercontinental missiles on the Blue Water Planet. The Holy Church is willing to invest in them."

On the skyline, more ordinary missiles poured down like raindrops, continuing to bombard Hongxia City fiercely. Before the smoke of gunpowder had dispersed, a rolling sandstorm had already risen on the horizon. Three hundred warriors wearing bone armor were the vanguard. They had practiced the special martial arts of the Holy Church, and every step they took left a lava-like footprint on the ground.

Behind them, a torrent of tens of thousands of warriors surged in like a tide. The giant shield warriors in the front row plunged their special alloy shields heavily into the ground. The fragments of holy stones inlaid on the shields lit up at the same time, and they actually built an arc-shaped wall of light three kilometers outside Hongxia City.

Gun smoke condensed into lead-gray clouds outside Hongxia City, and the iron torrent composed of Holy Church warriors had advanced to within a thousand meters of the city wall under the cover of missiles.

Yue Shanwu's fingertips slid across the array plate, and spirit stone powder fell from the cracks.

"Crossbow ready!"

As Ye Zizhen waved the flag, the giant crossbows at the four corners of the city wall made a roar of gears meshing. The poisoned arrows glowed with a cold blue light under the blessing of the runes. The three Qigong monks pressed their palms on the grooves of the crossbow at the same time, and the spiritual power flowed to the arrowheads along the inscriptions.

"put!"

Twelve blue rays tore through the air, and the supersonic arrows suddenly split in front of the Holy Church Shield Wall, turning into hundreds of poisonous needles as thin as cow hair. Before the giant shield warriors in the front row could react, the gaps between their necks and face shields were already filled with blue spikes, and the fire poison killed them instantly. Thirty corpses fell to the ground stiffly, still holding their shields.

Ye Qingyu narrowed his eyes behind the battle formation. Hongxia City's defenses were more difficult than he expected. He immediately waved his hand, and the second echelon of warriors immediately launched twenty electromagnetic cannons, with dazzling arcs of electricity appearing from the charging coils.

"The third battlement on the left side of the city wall is where the energy fluctuations are the weakest."

The electromagnetic gun array emitted a high-frequency hum, and the special projectile reached seven times the speed of sound the moment it was fired. The defenders on the city wall only saw a stream of orange-red light, and the alloy bullet had penetrated the array barrier.

Amid the sound of bricks and stones exploding, the three monks were blasted into a bloody mist before they could even scream.

"Fill up the formation!"

Ouyang Yun's cry came from the South Gate. She threw out twelve battle flags and inserted them into the damaged areas. As the flags fluttered, the scattered spiritual power condensed again. But the Saint Church warriors had already seized this fleeting opportunity. Three hundred lightly armored warriors climbed up the East Gate wall like locusts.

"It's our turn."

Ye Wanjun drew his long sword and jumped down from the top of the city wall, the blade drawing a silver arc in the moonlight. The head of the first soldier who climbed the city wall flew high, and the headless body still maintained the forward posture.

Ye Youkong followed closely behind with dozens of martial artists. The flashes of swords and the collision of the bone blades of the Holy Church warriors produced a series of sparks.

Ye Zixin saw it clearly from the arrow tower. These dead soldiers didn't look like living people at all - they could still fight even if their arms were cut off, and they would still roar and bite even if their hearts were pierced until they died.

Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering explosion at the South Gate. The buried underground fire mines were triggered, and the flames engulfed thousands of charging warriors.

But two ten-meter-tall giants rushed out of the smoke, their bodies charred but their speed did not slow down, and they bombarded the city gate.

"Martial Saint!"

The monk on guard had just issued a warning when the shock wave had already thrown him off the city wall. The alloy city gate was twisted and deformed in the high-frequency vibration, and the door hinge groaned under the heavy load. Yue Shanwu was about to rush to help when his feet suddenly trembled violently.

The soil at the base of the west gate wall bulged strangely, and dozens of digging monsters wearing rock armor broke out of the ground. The fragments of the holy stone on their foreheads resonated with the spiritual power of the earth veins, and actually tore a gap several feet wide at the base of the wall.

At the same time, a second-level martial saint also appeared. Yue Shanwu drew his sword and rushed forward to meet him.

"There are ambushes underground!"

Ye Zizhen's exclamation was drowned out by the shouting and killing. The Holy Church had obviously studied the defense of Hongxia City, and this three-dimensional offensive hit every weak point of the city wall almost at the same time.
