Chapter 760 - 754: Welcome Back, Her Highness Honglian!
Profound-Colored Divine Thunder, Flame of Destruction, Immortal Realm Heavy Water, Wood Decay Factor, Ultimate Beam...
All the Otherworld visitors unleashed every trick they had, their methods unfurling one after another, and in an instant, the brilliance illuminated the heavens, reflecting in all directions, casting the world in a radiant light.
Stars were being pulled from their orbits or simply created out of thin air, hurling fiercely towards Earth!
Rumble...
The sounds of explosions and fractures rang out continuously, never ceasing.
However...
All these efforts were in vain.
Every attack, after entering Earth’s atmosphere, vanished in an instant, disappearing as if they never existed.
The Earth Humans, barely clinging to life, gradually understood the current situation.
Facing the [humanoid natural disaster]-like Otherworld invaders, Earth’s nations merely watched quietly, waiting for them to bring about their own doom.
The enemy’s methods seemed earth-shattering and ghost-wailing, but in reality, couldn’t harm them at all.
When you think about it, what’s the difference between so-called Divine Power Immortal Technique and super-sized real scene special effects?
"Damn! This Ma Ran’s power has already reached the late stage of "Earth Chronicles", even stronger than imagined!"
"It shouldn’t be..."
"He’s already capable of sealing timelines, slaughtering higher-dimensional beings as easily as killing chickens or dogs. What’s so unexpected?"
"Damn! Can’t find a single flaw! If this goes on, we’re like fish in a barrel, not to mention winning the battle, we can’t even escape!"
"Don’t give up! As long as we believe in hope and light, miracles will definitely bloom again!"
"...There are no miracles. While everyone was going all out just now, I seized the opportunity to do some calculations. The chance of us escaping on our own is zero percent! Whether we live or die isn’t determined by our will, but is entirely dependent on Ma Ran’s mood."
"We’ve tried, and we’ve tried hard, but I won’t attack Ma Ran anymore to avoid thoroughly provoking him."
"You want to be a traitor?"
"What do you mean by traitor? I’m just being a wise man who understands the times! As the saying goes, a wise bird chooses the right tree to nest. After arriving in this [Sin Universe], I haven’t killed a single life, forming no enmity with Ma Ran. Seeing his overwhelming strength and impressive aura, I’ve grown in admiration and am willing to serve under him. What does this have to do with you? Mind your own business!"
"I knew it! You people who walk the promiscuous path are simply untrustworthy, without an inch of courageous, advancing faith and will. You’re like a blade of grass swaying in the wind! You choose to resign to fate, but I will never give up. Even if it means fighting till my soul is extinguished, and my body shattered, I will never surrender!"
The faces of the Otherworld invaders varied, some as pale as gold paper, while others were so gloomy as to almost drip water, and some were red with rage, eyes bloodshot.
Just as they were on the brink of conflict, Ma Ran’s voice suddenly echoed in their hearts.
"Seeing a glimpse of time’s river and mistaking it for reality."
"The so-called "Earth Chronicles" is merely one possibility."
"With a single thought, I can derive countless divergent stories from the timeline."
Upon hearing these words, the breath of the Otherworld invaders momentarily stopped, and their heartbeats paused for an instant, causing them all to stop speaking and moving.
They became like prey eyed by a predator, their bodies stiff, and their souls and thoughts turned blurred and sluggish.
Some lowered their heads, showing a submissive attitude, while others clenched their teeth tightly, staring straight at Ma Ran.
Ma Ran’s gaze swept over the Otherworld invaders, a hint of disappointment surfacing in his eyes as he sighed regretfully.
Understanding the tacit meaning from the sound of the strings isn’t difficult for the invading Otherworlders.
The underlying meaning in Ma Ran’s sigh was quickly grasped by the Divine Kings, Immortal Kings, and the cheat-enhanced ones.
——All your maneuvers amounted to this? Ah, it’s not entirely your fault. At the root, it’s because I didn’t apply enough pressure to push you to a higher realm. It’s all my fault.
Their expressions varied, reacting differently.
Anger, calmness, surprise, disappointment...
Frustration, sadness, excitement...
Standing beside Ma Ran, Su Qiangwei blinked.
Today, she was as quiet as a mute child.
Be unruly when it’s the time, but keep a low profile when there’s nothing to say. Competing with peers for attention even when not as strong as the enemy is not normal behavior.
Besides, she had an important task from Ma Ran later and couldn’t waste her Heart Power here!
"..."
Su Qiangwei stealthily peeked at Ma Ran beside her.
There’s no doubt about this guy’s proficiency in showing off in public.
Even without speaking a line, just by sighing, he could steal the spotlight.
But...
The Otherworld invaders in front of her, with an excessively high average combat power, seemed to treat "breaking through on the spot" as a regular ability, exerting an astounding sense of pressure. Although incomparable to the [Supreme Ruler], they were far superior to the ordinary Middle Rank Divine beings of the Divine Court.
Even picking one randomly from them, Su Qiangwei wasn’t confident she could defeat them.
Ma Ran’s attitude could be seen as recklessly carefree, wouldn’t this backfire?
The girl was somewhat worried.
However, that little concern vanished in an instant.
She knew better than anyone just how strong this comrade beside her was.
It was unparalleled strength without the slightest exaggeration!
Ma Ran’s skills weren’t gained through flattery!
As for the group of Immortal Kings, Divine Emperors before her...
They might indeed possess some capability to dominate a realm, but their purity was too low, not qualified to be Ma Xiansheng’s opponent.
Before Ma Ran even made a move, this group of enemies was subtly starting to fracture.
Some seemed to contemplate how to surrender; some were indecisive, ambiguous in attitude and conflicted in stance; others held fierce determination, unwilling to yield.
"This war may end with your victory, but..."
As the representative of the Otherworld invaders, Zheng Jiang stepped up at the crucial moment: "I would rather die fighting than beg anyone for mercy!"
These words, to some extent, yielded some effect, leading some Otherworld invaders who didn’t want to fight Ma Ran to change their stance and join Zheng Jiang on the same side.
"War?"
Ma Ran’s lips curled slightly upwards, a sneer flashing in his eyes: "It seems you misunderstand something."
"This is merely a [rebellion] destined to stir no waves."
As soon as the words fell, time and space twisted!
A fiery red silhouette gradually appeared before everyone.
Su Qiangwei blinked, obediently saying: "Master!"
The arrival was none other than the current Overlord of Cangming, [Lord of the Red Lotus]· Ye Fengqing!
"Damn! Clearly having overwhelming combat power already, yet still opting for a stable strategy, inviting Ye Honglian to sit in the command!"
Zheng Jiang clenched his teeth, ready to fight to the death, but suddenly widened his eyes in shock, realizing that the scene before him had turned bizarre.
The once steadfast hawkish group, sincerely issuing soul shouts like "fight to the death," "defy heaven," and "never resign to fate," suddenly gave up on resistance upon seeing Ye Fengqing.
They all kneeled on one knee, bowed their heads in respect, and said in unison: "Welcome back, Her Highness Honglian!"
Zheng Jiang was dumbfounded.
Was he out of touch with the times, or did the world change too quickly?
What exactly happened in that instant?
