Suddenly, an incomparably terrifying aura appeared in outer space.
Four beams of sword light shot to the heavens. Green, white, red, and blue lit up the cosmos.
An aura that seemed to come from the primordial chaos erupted from the four beams of light.
The four figures that had been lost in the light became clear once more.
Captus appeared above Lan Jue's head. Golden runes shimmered along its length. It was like the first time the Middle Heaven Great Emperor of the North Pole had appeared. Captus' full power had been unleashed.
Lan Qing, Zhou Qianlin, and the Pharmacist were the same. Their swords hung suspended in the air.
The light around them had already disappeared and turned into a bizarre world. This was the true Primal Chaos World. Primal Chaos Qi was quietly being born.
Monarch's eyes narrowed, as though he were a cat playing with a mouse. This sudden turn of events caused his sense of danger to spike to a new high.
To his horror, the immortal qi that protected his body began to tremble violently as the four beams of sword energy appeared. It seemed to be on the verge of dispersing.
What was this thing? Even the immortal realm couldn't withstand it?
Did these humans really have the power to defeat me, a golden immortal?
Monarch's calculations in the war between humanity and the aliens were flawless. Every victory Lan Qing and his army had won had been within his calculations.
As long as it didn't exceed the scope of his plans, it would continue to develop under his guidance.
The only thing that had exceeded his expectations was Ultus.
When Lan Jue and the Pharmacist entered Monarch's planet with the ruse of injuring themselves, Monarch knew what they were up to. He was curious as to what these humans were after.
Only later did he understand that their target was actually the Zhu Xian sword. This discovery made him very curious, why did the humans want that sword?
But he didn't let his guard down. He left his strongest avatar to guard Ultus.
He didn't expect.
Ultus would turn the tables on them.
Thus, Lan Jue and the rest took the Celestial Slaying Sword and escaped.
This was the only thing that was out of his control. He didn't expect that it would explode now.
There was no time to fool around. Monarch's avatar blurred and reappeared above the Banishing Strategy.
He was still the size of a human, and both his palms pressed out at the same time.
It slapped towards the chaotic aura within the Celestial Slaying Sword Formation.
The golden light wasn't that strong.
But when Monarch unleashed its power it sent the surrounding Paragons hurtling through the air, including the two strongest aliens. Even the human fleet around them was forced back by the shockwave of energy. A large area of empty space was created.
It's over!
Roxanne's vision darkened. The Banishing Strategy wasn't complete, but Monarch was already attacking it. She was doomed.
The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was finished. It could not be completed.
Humanity was finished.
In the end, they had failed to defeat the home worlds!
An exclamation sounded in his mind.
Roxanne felt the shock of the emotions around her.
Among them were the Violet Prince and the avatars of the alien planets.
She pulled herself together and turned her attention back to the Banishing Strategy. What she saw was strange.
Monarch's palms thrust forward. Golden light enveloped the entire Banishing Strategy.
Primordial energy pulsed within the Strategy, but it wasn't strong.
All of a sudden, a powerful surge of chaotic aura shot out from the sword formation.
Despite Monarch's cultivation, he was frozen in place. He couldn't evade the attack, and the primordial energy engulfed him.
The moment the chaotic aura enveloped him, an even stranger scene appeared. The golden barrier that had been enveloping him disappeared just like that.
When it came into contact with the primordial energy, it melted away like snow in hot water.
Restraint!
These two words popped into Roxanne's mind. Hope reignited in her heart.
The Banishing Strategy wasn't complete, but it was already working. It could even resist Monarch, a golden immortal. This meant humanity still had a chance.
The Violet Prince and the avatars were equally shocked by Monarch's sudden change. They could feel the oppressive power of the Sword Formation as well. Just before Monarch was sucked in, they received Monarch's command to attack the four humans who had set up the Sword Formation.
As soon as Monarch entered the Strategy, Lan Jue and the others were enveloped in a dazzling light. The chaotic Banishing Strategy shimmered, and as Monarch entered it began to shrink, as if it were a small world of its own.
Lan Jue's eyes blazed with light. She pointed with her right hand and Captus plunged into the Strategy. Red light flashed, and the chaos within was dyed crimson.
Zhou Qianlin was next. Demortus dissolved into a blue light and sank into the Strategy. It complemented Captus, and the aura of the Strategy grew stronger.
Lan Qing and the Pharmacist followed suit, guiding Ultus and Occisus into the formation.
From the outside, the Strategy was a chaotic mess. Monarch's golden light was still faintly discernible, but it was much weaker than before.
Lan Jue and the others' faces were solemn. Their bodies became translucent, and shone with the same light as their swords. Every time the light changed, their auras grew stronger. They were like four swords in human form.
The basic sword formation was complete, and Monarch was trapped within it. Now all they had to do was maintain the formation and build it to its fullest potential.
The Foundation Strategy was the foundation of the Banishing Strategy. Once the foundation was complete, the Strategy was complete.
The Strategy was divided into different levels. What they needed was the simplest version of the Banishing Strategy.
Even the Paragons on the outside could see Lan Jue and the others pouring their energy into the Strategy. But the Strategy was like a bottomless pit, and didn't change much.
While the Paragons continued to work on the Strategy, the pressure on the Paragons increased.
Now that Monarch was trapped within the Strategy, the Violet Prince and the avatar's attacks rose to a new level.
With the Pauper dead, there were only eleven Paragons left to stop them.
Roxanne was the main force, but universal protogenia suppressed her abilities. She had a hard time fending off the Violet Prince.
The other ten Paragons working together were having a hard time fighting the avatar, which was nearly as strong as an Arcane immortal.
The Driver was the main force. Bolts of violet lightning rained down from the sky. His Domain enveloped the battlefield, and he was able to restrain some of the avatars.
But the avatar had three heads and six arms, and wielded six weapons. Every time it attacked, the ten Paragons had to fight with all their might to keep the Domain stable.
Everyone's energy was being drained at a frightening rate.
Whether it was the Wine Master's control of space or the Clockmaker's control of time, their effectiveness was limited by the sheer disparity in power.
The Paragons found it harder and harder to defend against their foe's attacks.
At any moment the Paragons could collapse.
Just then a host of figures appeared on the fringes of the battlefield. Mechas glowed with a variety of colors.
Su Xiaosu's voice boomed through the cockpits. "This is the moment of life and death. For our families, for all of humanity, come with me!"
A bright light flashed, and a mecha with six light wings sprouted from its back, flying toward the battlefield. Immediately after that, hundreds and thousands of mechas flew over at high speed.
Star Division's soldiers, the Bloodiron Khans, and the reformed soldiers were among them.
They had played an important role in the fight against the Marauders, and now they were here again.
Even though they knew that they could only be used as cannon fodder in a battlefield of this level, their sacrifice would be worth it as long as they could block the enemy for a second.
Su Xiaosu was honest when she told them that their chances of survival were slim, and that they had to volunteer.
A fifth of the reformed soldiers stood up. Star Division had more than a third. It was touching that this third included all of the students Lan Jue had brought from National Eastern University.
Most shocking of all was the Blood and Blood Khans of the An Lun army. Their entire army had appeared!
Indeed, not a single one of the Bloodiron Khans was a coward. They weren't as strong as Star Division, nor were they a match for the Terminator's reformist army. But they were all out on the battlefield. Their eyes shone with determination and determination. To protect their country, to protect humanity, they were willing to give their lives.
At Xiaosu's command, the Bloodiron Khans were the first to charge. They used their bodies to form a human barricade in front of the Banishing Strategy. Every one of them activated their mecha shields, and combined their Disciplines with the power of their mechas. They were prepared to defend against the onslaught of the attack.
Star Division and the reformed soldiers arrived one after the other. They formed a line and unleashed their full power.
