Chapter 349: Why Was It Them?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

An Lin and the others continued onward to the final spatial node.

This was a vast expanse of grassland with white clouds hanging over a backdrop of blue skies and clear creeks running through a lush hill. Even the air there was extremely clean and refreshing.

“What a lovely place.”

Su Qianyun narrowed her eyes with contentment and inhaled a lungful of air.

An Lin looked around at their surroundings and was also struck by a sense of peace and serenity. He couldn’t imagine any monsters appearing on such a beautiful landscape.

And you couldn’t blame him for thinking this way either. One had to realize that they were currently part of the Ten Realm-guardian Tribes, and their mission was to exterminate all the living beings that could threaten this world.

The previous two spatial nodes had Demons of Hell and sinister devils, so there should be some monsters in this spatial node too.

A rift suddenly opened up in the sky at this very moment.

A circular, silvery-white flying object flew out from the rift. The flying object consisted of two smooth silver rings, and it glowed brightly under the sun like a perfect work of art.

An Lin and the others were dumbfounded by this sight.

What the hell was that? Why would something like this appear?

“Holy f*ck, are we fighting aliens for the last level?!” Liu Qianhuan exclaimed.

An Lin: “…”

He was trying not to draw comparisons between UFOs and the object in the sky, but it was simply far too different from any magic tools he had seen before!

Just as he was pondering what the object could be, bright electricity suddenly began to revolve around it before converging in the air above.

“Be careful!”

An Lin’s hair stood up on end as he roared and summoned the black brick before commanding it to expand.

Boom!

Tang Ximen was taken by surprise and rolled off the brick onto the ground. He only had a chance to raise his head before he was greeted by the sight of a huge pillar of electricity blasting forth from the flying object and colliding with the black brick.

A terrifying explosion of energy radiated outward, reducing everything around them to dust and creating a massive crater in the ground.

After everyone came to their senses, they discovered that a huge hole had been blasted into the ground just in front of the black brick.

“So they really are aliens? That’s some advanced technology there…” An Lin pursed his lips with fear lingering in his heart.

He couldn’t detect any vital energy fluctuations from that last attack, so that was clearly just a purely physical energy attack.

“Gundam One, Gundam Two, knock that thing out of the sky!”

An Lin immediately staged a retaliation after confirming that the flying object was indeed hostile.

The two Gundams immediately stepped forward after receiving An Lin’s instructions and transformed into two streaks of light flying at extreme speed toward the flying object in the sky.

At this moment, an opening appeared on the flying object and two figures clad in black armor leaped out from the opening.

Whoosh!

One of them charged toward the Gundams and threw a metallic fist directly at a Gundam’s light sword.

Boom!

A circular explosion of energy fanned out around them as the moment of the razor-sharp light sword was stopped cold by the metallic fist, unable to slash down any further.

The other Gundam had already aimed its cannon at the figure and sent a laser blast in that direction.

Electricity exploded forth as the laser blast tore through the air and almost instantly arrived at its intended destination.

Another astonishingly loud bang erupted as a grey barrier of energy appeared around the suit of black armor, stopping the powerful laser blast dead in its tracks.

“Refraction Realm!”

A deep and powerful voice sounded when the black suit of armor shone with a brilliant light. Seven streaks of light then immediately appeared behind the figure’s back and swept toward the two Gundams with devastating force.

“This… Isn’t this Refraction Realm a technique used by Battle God Zhen Hong?! And this powerful Battle Qi… There’s no mistaking it, that’s him for sure!” Battle God Zi Yang exclaimed in shock at the scenes unfolding above him.

“Battle God Zhen Hong? Wasn’t he the first Battle God of the Bei Hong Empire?” Xu Xiaolan’s expression stirred as she recalled this name from the historical texts she had read. “The book stated that he had disappeared seven thousand years ago, could it be…”

Everyone looked up at the figure clad in black armor in the air as confusion continued to mount in their hearts.

They had initially thought that those two figures were mechanical puppets, just like the two Gundams. After all, they were extremely tightly encapsulated in their armor, giving them the appearance of two bulkier Gundams that had been painted black.

But from the recent developments, it appeared there was a strong possibility that the armor-clad figure was a Battle God!

Why would Battle God Zhen Hong be here? How did he obtain such a highly advanced technological product? Why was he the third opponent they had to face as part of the Ten Realm-Guardian Tribes?

Gundam One and Gundam Two were both knocked back to the ground by the rainbow streaks of light.

Right at this moment, the other figure clad in black armor began to fly toward An Lin and the others as it unleashed its unrivaled aura without reservation.

The armor-clad figure opened its palms and the sky suddenly darkened as Battle Qi surged violently.

Within the span of a few seconds, a black saber projection of over a thousand meters appeared in the air before descending upon An Lin and the others with an unrivaled sense of destruction!

“This is the signature move of Battle God Tian Dao— Heavenly Black Slash!” Battle God Zi Yang exclaimed again.

“Can you quit being surprised and actually do something?” Bi Qiong flew into the air with her green imperial robe fluttering around her. She gripped toward the air and materialized a gigantic green sword projection which met the black saber projection in a head-on collision.

Boom!

The clash of the two Battle Gods transformed the entire sky into a canvas exclusively tinged with green and black paints.

“Battle God Tian Dao was the second Battle God of the Ao Xin Empire. He’s also one of the missing Battle Gods recorded in the historical texts,” Xu Xiaolan spoke again.

“Looks like all the missing Battle Gods have come here.”

Xuanyuan Cheng looked up at the earth-shattering clash in the sky above them as his heart trembled.

Such unfathomable power… So this was what it looked like when two Battle Gods fought with all their might!

An Lin looked at Battle God Zi Yang with a peculiar expression. “Senior, you’re a Battle God just like them, aren’t you ashamed to just be spectating like this?”

He was greatly in awe of all the Battle Gods in battle. Battle God Tian Dao, Battle God Zhen Hong, Battle Goddess Bi Qiong— all of them were peerlessly powerful. Only Battle God Zi Yang was standing on the sidelines; he wasn’t a fake Battle God, was he?

Battle God Zi Yang chuckled lightly. “Don’t try to goad me into fighting. I’m only responsible for protecting Tang Ximen and Tian Lingling. Oh, and White Spirit Snake as well.”

An Lin: “…”

He cast his gaze toward the two Gundams to find that they were getting the crap beaten out of them by Battle God Zhen Hong.

“Let’s get in on this battle!”

An Lin finally drew his Evil-Slaying Sword after assessing the strength of his enemies.

Right at this moment, a white circular object suddenly descended slowly onto the ground.

A black rift appeared and a bald man immediately jumped out from within.

He wore a white cape with a yellow jumpsuit and a pair of red gloves, and his spontaneous appearance had everyone instantly on their guard.

An Lin was completely baffled by this get-up and a hint of fear appeared in his heart.
