Chapter 1839: Abyssal Eruption
“Fire all of the secondary cannons, and primarily focus the cannon fire on the area above the medium and small ships. At the same time, all of the mecha units will stay within the protective barriers and fire freely outward to alleviate pressure.”
After the order was issued, countless energy attacks were soon unleashed to nullify the purplish-black rain falling from the sky.
At the same time, a string of deafening booms rang out, and all large soul missiles of all descriptions were launched toward the enormous figure in the distance.
However, after unleashing its attack, the gigantic whale suddenly sank into the water and quickly dove deep into the sea.
The satellite quickly lost sight of it, but the other surveillance devices could detect that during the whale’s descent, another powerful ocean current began to surge toward the three fleets, and the energy imbued within this current was so formidable that it was significantly disrupting the surveillance soul tools.
As a result, the massive figure became very blurry and indistinct to Sea God Legion’s surveillance.
“Activate all surveillance soul tools to their maximal operating capacity and lock onto its location at all cost!” Chen Zeyu hurriedly yelled.
If they couldn’t track their opponent, then they would essentially be blind and deaf, and that would be extremely perilous.
Right at this moment, the entire sea suddenly erupted into a frenzy.
Violent ocean currents appeared, and massive waves that stretched to several dozens of meters tall were swept up.
The entire sea had turned dark and forbidding, and it was as if all water elements, even the entire sea itself, had suddenly become enemies of the three naval fleets.
All of the surveillance devices instantly malfunctioned, and in the face of the turbulent wave, some of the small ships were hurled clear out of the water.
The three fleets were instantly plunged into a state of chaos, and explosions began to appear.
Those explosions were from the small gunboats, which had self-detonated as their protective barriers were unable to keep out the corrosive rain.
The power of soul beasts was limited as gods couldn’t appear in this world, but the power of nature was limitless.
Regardless of how powerful the three naval fleets were, they were still extremely insignificant in the face of nature’s wrath.
Chen Zeyu’s expression had already changed drastically, and a hint of panic welled up in his heart for the very first time. The most terrifying enemies were always the unknown ones, and he had never encountered a situation like this before.
“Request reinforcements from the main control center right away!”
As soon as the giant sea soul beast had appeared, the alarm had already been sounded in the Central Legion, so everyone there was also keeping a close eye on the unfolding situation.
Even before Chen Zeyu’s request for reinforcements had arrived, Yu Guanzhi had already issued some orders. “All air units of the Central Legion and Northwest Legion are to take flight and prepare to offer reinforcements. Invite the representatives of the Spirit Pagoda, Shrek Academy, and the Tang Sect to meet me here. All Battle Gods of the Battle God Hall, prepare for battle.”
This sudden turn of events had arrived far too abruptly, and everyone was caught off guard.
Gu Yuena had only just issued her warning, and the enemy had already arrived.
“Old Man Chen, what is that thing? Do you recognize it?” Yu Guanzhi asked.
In terms of battles on the sea, no one was more experienced and capable than Chen Xinjie, and he was also the most familiar with everything in the sea.
Currently, Chen Xinjie wore a grim expression. Just like his son, he had also never seen such an enormous sea soul beast.
“I’m afraid I don’t know what it is. It should be a whale-type sea soul beast, but it’s the first time I’ve ever seen one of this size; we can only pray that it doesn’t have anything to do with the abyssal plane. Judging from the scope and degree of influence it has on the weather and the sea, I can tell it’s at least a quasigod level soul beast; it’s most likely even more powerful than I am. In addition to that, its powers are enhanced in the sea, so our fleets won’t be able to stand against it. Commander, I would like to be deployed to assist the three fleets in stabilizing the situation.”
“Alright.” That request was exactly what Yu Guanzhi had been waiting for.
With Chen Xinjie leading the Sea God Legion, the entire legion’s combat prowess would be raised by at least 30%. Furthermore, as a quasigod, he would definitely be able to hold his own against this formidable enemy.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” Right at this moment, three resounding booms suddenly rang out from the communicator in the main control center, and everyone’s eyes were instantly drawn toward it.
Through the soul communication devices hanging on the wall, everyone was stunned to discover that a series of explosions had taken place, and they had been set off right where the Blood God Legion was currently setting up the Blood God Array, which was also where the abyssal passageway had disappeared earlier!
This was what everyone least wanted to see, and it was happening at the worst time possible.
Yu Guanzhi immediately rose to his feet, and yelled, “What’s going on?”
In the next instant, the image being displayed provided an answer to his question.
A gigantic pillar of grey light suddenly erupted out of the ground, and the Blood God Array that was still under construction was instantly destroyed. The defensive weaponry set up around the site immediately opened fire, but all of the artillery fire was instantly devoured by the grey light.
A series of figures began to emerge from within the grey light; they were all Guardian Longhorned Beetles!
Countless abyssal creatures flew up from the backs of these Guardian Longhorned Beetles, unleashing attacks in all directions.
The abyssal passageway had reopened, and the abyssal creatures had returned!
Even without the order from Yu Guanzhi, all of the defense systems were activated, and all types of soul weapons were being fired.
In the blink of an eye, the peaceful northernmost region was plunged into a state of complete chaos once again.
Yu Guanzhi quickly composed himself before turning to Chen Xinjie. “Old Man Chen, ignore everything here and go to the Sea God Legion. If our defenses on the sea were to crumble, we’ll be unable to stop the invasion of the abyssal creatures.”
Chen Xinjie gave an affirmative response before immediately departing. There was no way he could make his presence felt on the entire battlefield, so he had to go to the place where he would be most effective.
Yu Guanzhi then turned to Gu Yuena. “Chairwoman Gu, I’ll have to trouble you as well; please lead the powerful beings of the Spirit Pagoda to assist us.”
Gu Yuena nodded in response before also departing. For her, abyssal energy was extremely important.
The sudden return of the abyssal plane shook the entire federal army, and the only thing they could be thankful of was that all of their troops were still present on the northern front.
The Tang Sect and Shrek Academy encampment was instantly informed of the situation as well, and Ling Zichen immediately rushed out of her room, arriving beside the secondary tree of life before casting her gaze into the distance.
From her position, she could see the artillery fire in the distance and hear the violent explosions.
Her brows furrowed tightly as she murmured to herself, “I didn’t think they would recover so quickly; looks like Eternal Heaven wasn’t able to deal a decisive blow on them. After being converted into a laser, Eternal Heaven is only able to unleash around a third of its power; what a pity!”
She raised her head and looked up at the secondary tree of life beside her as she spoke.
Yali had strictly prohibited her from leaving this place; she had to recover with the nourishment of the secondary tree of life, and it was particularly important for her to replenish her own life energy.
