Stronger from Earth

The armies of both sides confronted each other, each unwilling to retreat even a step.

This battle concerns their life and death and also the survival of the Mother Star and civilization; the victor will write everything, while the defeated will return to dust.

The Canglan Saint Master summoned back the Trident, wearing the Saint Master crown and draped in the Immortal Robe, emanating the aura belonging to Void Creatures.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but feel fortunate.

The World Will of the Canglan Realm truly blessed them; just after arranging many methods, inspiring morale, and gathering all the armies here, the Alien Race army arrived.

If the enemy had come a moment earlier, they would have been in danger.

However, upon seeing the configuration of the Earth Civilization army, the Canglan Saint Master’s brows furrowed tightly again.

The Fifth Holy Spirit was shocked with her mouth wide open; when the Venerable Lord subdued her, he had proclaimed the might of Earth Civilization, but she never thought it would be so formidable.

In front of the Earth Legion were over a hundred True Immortals, and their aura was all heavy and formidable; the combat power of cultivators of the same tier was clearly a notch higher than their Canglan Realm counterparts, battling two at a time was no issue.

This was after the beings of Canglan practiced the Secret Technique "All Things Born," enhancing their power a notch.

The few dozen Star Lords at the forefront of the Alien Race army were not weak; some had momentum comparable to Void Creatures.

As for those three terrifying presences sensed faintly, they pressed the Fifth Holy Spirit’s heart to beat rapidly.

She had never seen such powerful beings in her life.

Are they Immortal Creatures, or Half-Step Immortal?

"Three Half-Step Immortals?" The Canglan Saint Master spoke these words with suppressed aura; though the sound wasn’t loud, it was like thunder, shaking the True Tier cultivators beside him into retreat.

The Barbarian King felt his scalp tingle; had he not become a dog for the Venerable Lord, he probably would have bolted already, hardly daring to look further.

The power of Earth Civilization was too terrifying; they actually had three Half-Step Immortals, and this was probably not even their full strength.

Such a powerful world, no wonder it could nurture such terrifying existence as the Venerable Lord.

Perceiving the aura of three Half-Step Immortals, the few bits of morale just condensed in the Canglan Realm suddenly dissipated completely.

The Canglan Saint Master said coldly, "Now, the Canglan Realm’s suppression on the Alien Race remains strong; Half-Step Immortal creatures cannot cross over, let alone if they did manage, we could expel them!"

Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts immediately steadied; indeed, what was there to fear about Half-Step Immortals that couldn’t invade?

Moreover, their foundation was evidently stronger!

In their hearts, the Canglan True God was forever invincible; as long as the True God Illusion was summoned, all powerful enemies could be suppressed!

Darkly analyzing the enemy camp, the Canglan Saint Master rapidly arranged tactics, and multiple legions immediately began to move.

The Primordial Ancestor extended a Primordial Qi hand to cover the Realm Gate, perceiving the world rules of Canglan Realm; after a while, he withdrew his hand.

"This world appears slightly strange; though it’s a third-tier world, its World Origin had been nurtured and cultivated by a supreme entity, essentially being a fourth-tier world."

The Primordial Ancestor said with interest, "But that mysterious entity left millions of years ago and never returned, leading to the decline of Canglan World."

A third or fourth-tier world, besides Origin Power, holds little allure for cultivators.

However, if it had been the Dao Ground of a True God, the significance becomes extraordinary.

Xuanyuan Celestial Venerable sensed the remaining Immortal power in Canglan World, saying, "Within the origin of Canglan Realm, only traces of Immortal Creature imprints remain. Their current location is extremely distant, and their state is wretched; who knows what they’ve encountered."

If Canglan Realm once had the presence of a True God and dozens of Immortal Creatures guarding it, Earth Civilization would be wary. Yet they would await the Mother Star’s advancement before acting.

But now, Canglan Realm only had a few scattered remnants. Earth Civilization truly didn’t take it seriously, opting to directly overpower it.

Even if the powerful figures of Canglan Realm returned in the future, upon seeing the prosperous Earth Civilization, they’d have to detour!

Vajra Bodhisattva said, "Earth now only lacks an opportunity to leap; if it devours this special world, the Canglan Realm, could it accelerate the advancement, or even directly elevate to the Great Thousand Worlds?"

Canglan Realm had been a True God Dao Ground, retaining True God power, it might indeed influence the evolution of Earth’s Mother Star.

The Primordial Ancestor and Xuanyuan Celestial Venerable exchanged smiles.

"As long as it’s beneficial, whether one percent or one hundred percent effective, we must seize Canglan Realm!" The Primordial Ancestor said emphatically.

Earth Civilization is now surrounded by wolves; only by advancing to Divine Level Civilization can it break free from all chains and stride towards a glorious future.

Otherwise, facing formidable foes, Earth Civilization would likely be divided and consumed by the Ten Thousand Races of Xingyu.

Any chance for hope, they must strive for.

For the Mother Star, for Earth Civilization, for the sect, for friends and family, there’s no hesitation in the face of life and death.

Xuanyuan Celestial Venerable suddenly laughed and said, "The Immortal Martial Taoist is truly Earth Civilization’s fortuitous star. Originally a mediocre third-tier world, with his arrival, there are so many surprises."

After speaking, his gaze was directed towards Wang Xuan, who was dealing with the Celestial Dao Tribulation, a thirty-year-old Star Lord, yet his combat power could nearly match a Half-Step Immortal.

Such a heavenly prodigy, a monstrous talent, he had never heard of nor seen. If Wang Xuan had not been born in the Earth Civilization, he would have long since killed him.

After all, Wang Xuan’s speed of growth and combat power are incredibly terrifying. Given time, he will undoubtedly become a top-tier expert.

"It’s time to take down the Canglan Realm," said the Primordial Ancestor. "However, the Canglan Realm may have some pitfalls. I don’t know if Wang Xuan has already investigated them."

The Primordial Ancestor was very assured about Wang Xuan’s safety.

In his view, no one in the Canglan Realm could pose a threat to Wang Xuan. Even when Wang Xuan successfully crosses the tribulation, the Canglan Realm might feel anxious and unsure of how to respond.

Vajra Bodhisattva said, "In that case, let’s explore the Canglan Realm’s reality first, and wait for Wang Xuan to achieve success in his tribulation before engaging in the final battle!"

As Half-Step Immortals, their strength is indeed formidable, but as battle-hardened beings, they would never be careless at any time.

If they rashly ventured into the Canglan Realm out of arrogance, they might find themselves in a trap, which would be ridiculous and become a laughingstock for the Earth Civilization for millennia to come.

"Let’s move!" The Primordial Ancestor commanded, and the Earth Legion stepped into the Canglan Realm.

Ziwei Immortal Monarch, Celestial River Bodhisattva, and a crew of True Immortals directly entered the Canglan Realm, the imposing presence of True Tier life forms weighed down the creatures of the Canglan Realm with unease.

However, as soon as Ziwei Immortal Monarch and the others set foot in the Canglan Realm, they immediately felt the suppression from the World Will of Canglan.

The targeting by the World Will made them feel as if they were carrying a giant Immortal Mountain, restricting their every move.

In contrast, the Earth Immortal and Celestial Immortal who entered the Canglan World did not share these feelings. Though their abilities were suppressed by about thirty to fifty percent, their combat power remained consistent with their current realm.

Those who were completely unaffected were the Human Immortal cultivators and the fully armed soldiers.

These millions formed regiment phalanxes, and the lowest cultivation level was Bone Marrow Cleansing and Blood Exchange, while the stronger ones embodied the Divine Treasure Vajra. Working together, they could easily handle Earth-tier creatures.

Upon entering the Canglan Realm, people swiftly adapted to the environment here.

One by one, Celestial Immortals released snowflake-shaped eight-legged devices from the Spatial Magical Treasure, the large machinery named Eight-legged Snow Demon Beasts dropped onto the water, spreading in all directions.

Behind them, the surging sea soon froze, transforming into a vast white ice surface, the chilling cold extending with the water flow everywhere.

Everywhere the Eight-legged Snow Demon Beast passed became a sturdy snow-covered ice layer.

Not long after, outside the Realm Gate appeared a snow continent of several thousand square kilometers, with an ice layer thickness of over a hundred meters, and this snow continent continued to expand outward.

Beneath the water, numerous long-hidden Aquatic Race members were caught off guard, frozen by the suddenly appearing ice sheet. They couldn’t even launch a surprise attack, let alone keep themselves alive.

Billions of aquatic beings were turned into ice sculptures, while the outer aquatic army, led by Earth-tier and Celestial-tier creatures, tried desperately to flee far away, wishing they had one less tail.

The terrain covered by the Eight-legged Snow Demon Beast became forbidden zones for these aquatic beings; a slight delay in escape would turn them into ice sculptures.

Seeing this, the Canglan Saint Master and many aquatic leaders were so enraged that they vomited blood, suffering heavy losses before even engaging in battle, an outcome they had not anticipated.

"Dispatch the deep-sea aquatics to undermine the ice sheet from below!" ordered the Canglan Saint Master coldly.

Following the appearance of the snow continent, more Celestial Immortals deployed construction machinery to establish camps here.

Tens of thousands of large devices with spatial folding capabilities, orderly arranged modules built at incredible speeds.

Just as the empty snow continent lay desolate, a gigantic War Fortress arose!

The level, solid foundation plates rested on the ice surface, with eighty-one steel pillars supporting the entire base city, and as they released energy at their tops, a massive Energy Shield appeared, covering the entire base city.

Various warfare modules quickly integrated, and upon the completion of the War Fortress, an enormous steel monster stood before the Realm Gate, its cold aura ferociously solidifying towards Canglan’s myriad beings.

Satellites shot upwards, starships moved into near-earth orbit, and bionic mechanical fish dived into the water to swim freely.

The War Fortress commenced operation.

Outside the fortress, diverse heavy weaponry was rapidly organized, with high-tech weapons under collective control poised to cover the entire Canglan Realm anytime with firepower.

Soldier legion after legion equipped with standalone weapons, stationed within the War Fortress and machinery, didn’t need to charge with flesh and blood at the moment.

Many soldiers even linked their nerves with War Robots, rampantly voyaging across sea, land, and air with mechanical bodies, sweeping away all seen foes.

These scenes left the Canglan Saint Master and others dumbfounded, unable to fathom that the Earth army established a massive War Fortress so quickly in the Canglan Realm.

This high-tech weaponry left them trembling.

Having never faced the technological might firsthand, they were bewildered at this moment.
