Chapter 666: Chapter 666: Great Change

Inside the office of the Yunling Branch Head of the Guardian Flame.

The Yunling Branch Head wore a grim expression. "Ying Ya, there’s trouble in Yunling Town! Monsters with the heads of snakes and bodies of men have invaded. According to eyewitness reports, there are over a thousand of them. Our initial assessment is that they are an unknown type of Void Demon."

"Understood! I’ll go investigate at once!"

A man dressed in black with a shadow-like marking on his face answered nonchalantly, his body melting into the shadows.

The Yunling Branch Head smiled, relieved.

Ying Ya was a Grandmaster Level powerhouse who had mastered the Shadow Escape Technique, allowing him to lurk within shadows. Even a Half-Saint might not be able to detect him. He was the best scout they had!

"That won’t be necessary! All you human ants can just die!"

A vicious laugh echoed as an arm shot out and pierced Ying Ya’s heart. She Yunfeng appeared before the Yunling Branch Head, a savage grin plastered on his face.

"Who are you? How did you get in here?"

The Yunling Branch Head’s expression was grim, his mind reeling in shock as he yelled.

"It’s no use! Don’t bother trying to stall for time. Everyone outside is already dead! Your head will become another piece in my collection!"

She Yunfeng sneered, and the terrifying Spiritual Pressure of a Spirit Saint Peak erupted from him. His right hand shot out like a bolt of lightning.

"A Spirit Saint!"

A look of utter Despair flashed in the Yunling Branch Head’s eyes as he watched helplessly, unable to do anything as She Yunfeng’s right hand pierced through his Protective Spirit Armor and Spiritual Membrane to rip out his heart.

"Weak! Pathetically weak! Such a feeble race doesn’t deserve to possess this beautiful land!"

She Yunfeng swallowed the branch head’s heart in a single gulp, his eyes glinting with madness as he cackled viciously.

Outside the main camp of the Heart of Steel’s Yunling Branch.

Countless Warriors with the heads of snakes and bodies of men launched an attack on the main encampment of the Heart of Steel’s Yunling Branch.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

From within the Heart of Steel’s Yunling Branch encampment, countless heavy cannons roared. A dense barrage of artillery fire slammed into the serpent-bodied Warriors, blasting the Alien Species into bloody chunks.

"You lowly members of the Human Race only know how to use these useless toys!"

Three three-meter-tall, serpent-bodied Spirit Saint Level powerhouses grinned viciously and charged into the Heart of Steel’s Yunling Branch encampment like bolts of lightning.

A series of terrifying explosions rang out. Soon after, the resistance from the entire Heart of Steel Yunling Branch began to weaken.

Countless serpent-bodied Alien Species Warriors swarmed in, quickly overrunning the Heart of Steel’s Yunling Branch.

Once the branches of the two major organizations, the Guardian Flame and the Heart of Steel, were dealt with, the serpent-bodied Alien Species Warriors swept across the rest of Yunling State like a tidal wave.

One area after another in Yunling State fell to the invaders.

At almost the same time, the Jiasen Republic, the Brentania Republic, and many other nations were also attacked by various Alien Species.

Many small and medium-sized countries fell almost instantly, coming under the control of these Alien Species.

Only the three superpowers—the Jiasen Republic, the Brentania Republic, and the Qianyuan Republic—were still desperately resisting the invasion of these Alien Species.

「The Holy Palace of the Qianyuan Republic.」

The six great Spirit Saints—Ji Yuanshi, Fang Yichen, Wu Zhongchao, Zhu Yan, Wu Kuang, and Celestial Princess—were seated at the White Jade Table.

Wu Kuang and Celestial Princess had only recently advanced to the rank of Spirit Saint. Both had rendered great service to the Qianyuan Republic, which was how they had earned the right to enter the Holy Palace and become one of the true figures who ruled the nation.

Fang Yichen spoke with a grim expression, "The Alien Species are invading. What are everyone’s thoughts?"

Ji Yuanshi said calmly, "They aren’t Void Demons. They use Spiritual Power. According to the testimony of our prisoners, they come from the Underworld. And in that Underworld, there are Divine Spirit Level powerhouses—more than one, in fact!"

As soon as he said this, a grave look flashed in the eyes of everyone present.

Everyone knew perfectly well just how powerful a Divine Spirit was.

When the God of Darkness from Gulondo World descended upon Blue Star, he was already greatly weakened. Even so, he had still managed to slaughter nearly every Spirit Saint on the planet, showing everyone the true terror of a Divine Spirit.

These Divine Spirits from the Blue Star Underground World were native to Blue Star. If they could unleash their full power, it would spell disaster for the Blue Star Human Clan.

Wu Zhongchao spoke up, "Zhu Yan, can you contact Shu Feng?"

All eyes turned to focus on Zhu Yan, making him feel both proud and pressured.

Zhu Yan gave a wry smile. "Shu Feng has gone to travel in other worlds. I can’t contact him either."

The other Spirit Saints frowned slightly, a flicker of helplessness in their eyes.

Gulondo World, the Black Tortoise Realm, and Andoras World—each was magnificent in its own right, possessing different Extraordinary Powers and countless treasures.

Gulondo World in particular had a safe passage to the Void Demon Realm. After reaching the Peak of their cultivation, many Spirit Saints from Blue Star would choose to go to Gulondo World and eventually venture into the Void Demon Realm in search of a path to greater power.

The vast majority of Blue Star Spirit Saints who entered the Void Demon Realm through Gulondo World never returned.

"We can ask the Light Flame God to intervene. As long as He helps us, we’ll have the ability to fight those Alien Species!"

Wu Zhongchao’s gaze fell upon Ji Yuanshi.

Ji Yuanshi said, "We can communicate with Him beforehand, then hold a sacrificial ritual to increase His Divine Power."

The Light Flame God’s power source was Divine Power converted from the Power of Faith. By holding a sacrificial ritual and mobilizing the countless people of the Qianyuan Republic to pray, they could rapidly increase the Light Flame God’s Divine Power.

Of course, such a ritual was incredibly taxing on the people and national resources, so it couldn’t be held every day. In Gulondo World, these rituals were generally held once a year.

The Qianyuan Republic was one of Blue Star’s Three Great Empires, so it could afford to hold the ritual once, especially during such a special time.

"A very clever choice! After all, you pieces of trash can only beg a Divine Spirit for protection!"

From within a patch of shadow, a Long Sword that seemed to have merged with the darkness shot out like a falling star, instantly piercing Ji Yuanshi’s heart.

The very instant his heart was pierced, Ji Yuanshi’s body suddenly crumbled and vanished. Countless bizarre white chains erupted from where he had been, tightly binding the Assassin in the shadows.

A five-meter-tall powerhouse with the head of a snake and the body of a man appeared in the Holy Palace.

"I must say I’m surprised. To think you weak humans could actually detect the presence of me, the great Demigod She Wufeng. As a reward, I shall grant you the honor of being torn limb from limb!"

She Wufeng grinned viciously. The terrifying Spiritual Pressure of a Demigod Level expert erupted from him, instantly shattering the white chains.
