Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1804 - 879: The Battle Begins

Song Chi and Ying Yi were heading back to the Torch Domain, busily gearing up for their rise to the myth rank, and that was only the beginning.

Right now, Human Emperor City in the Chaos Divine Land confronts an immense pressure like never before.

The front lines of the Five Races United Army have arrived right at the city's gates. Formed by millions of foreign battle troops, the Blood Evil Battle Formation looms like surging crimson clouds, weighing down intensely on the spirits of all Torch Fleet defenders holding the line.

Moving with the weight of mountains, three Void Armor-breaking Beasts—each as massive as a minor Floating Land—advance steadily. Every lash of their claws rips open enormous cracks across the Divine Land's terrain. Even from afar, their thunderous bellows echo fiercely against the Chaos City Shield and the Civilization Great Wall’s Guardian Light Screen, sending waves of ripples outward with a disturbing drone.

Standing firm on the battlements, Jiang Yuan, Ji Heng, Wilson Aclemon, and the other leaders of the Torch Civilization appeared solemn but resolute.

Everyone understood that passive defense alone wouldn't hold out forever. They needed to launch an offensive push to shatter the foes' advance and buy precious additional time.

"We can't hold back anymore," Jiang Yuan's piercing gaze swept over the far-off crimson ranks, "We have to hit them with a surprise assault and smash them hard right from the start!"

"I concur," Ji Heng agreed with a nod, her gaze sparking with cold resolve, "Even though this vanguard with the three Void Armor-breaking Beasts can't really endanger Human Emperor City, eliminating them upfront will strike deep fear into the primary enemy troops following close behind."

In short order, a bold ambush strategy took shape among the top figures.

This strategy relied on a pair of crucial elements.

First came aid from the Holy Hall Federation’s Immortal powerhouse, the "Klein Family"—a rare Seven-Colored Quality hiding device known as the Illusory Spirit Concealing Umbrella.

Next was the natural illusion ability, a godlike skill from the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox that had just reached the mythical rank, held by the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce!

"The Illusory Spirit Concealing Umbrella will mask the fleet's motions and power signatures, and the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox’s illusions can warp senses, even forging deceptions that blur seamlessly with the real world. Together, they could fool the enemy without a doubt!"

Wilson Aclemon broke it down, his gaze shining brightly.

Once the strategy was locked in, they sprang into motion without delay.

The top-tier quick-strike squadron from Human Emperor City got selected, under Jiang Yuan's direct leadership. Small though it was, every vessel consisted of High Rank Torch Warships, masters of sudden strikes and explosive maneuvers.

Buzz!

Silently within the city, the Illusory Spirit Concealing Umbrella spread open, its Seven-Colored radiance shifting into a misty barrier that wrapped around the whole strike force.

Meanwhile, the ethereal image of a massive heavenly fox materialized above the walls—pure white, with nine tails flowing gracefully in its wake. Its eyes glowed with a hypnotic allure, and an unseen field of illusion spread like gentle ripples, blending perfectly with the Illusory Spirit Concealing Umbrella to hide the squadron completely while projecting a convincing picture of a ready-to-fight defense setup on Human Emperor City for the invaders to see.

Sure enough, the enemy front drew their focus there, showing no hint of doubt.

"Advance now!"

Under Jiang Yuan's order, the flawlessly cloaked strike squadron slipped away like shadows in darkness, quietly drifting from the southern ramparts beyond Human Emperor City, curving wide along the Chaos Storm's border, aiming directly at the alien front's rear—right where the three Void Armor-breaking Beasts clustered!

Lightning-fast the squadron raced, giving off zero power traces, slipping past the turbulent Blood Evil Battle Formation undetected until they closed in on the mark.

"Target locked! Full power output! Fire!"

Jiang Yuan's chilling directive raced via secure links to every member of the assault group, prompting the Torch Warships lurking in the emptiness to all focus dazzling white energy at their forward sections at once.

When the charge peaked, a storm of cannons unleashed devastating beams in unison.

BOOM——!!!

In that instant, the Star River seemed to turn upside down, with countless guns thundering in fury!

Gleaming surges of energy, rays that ripped through space, contaminant warheads laced with Rule Runes... Every strike landed true, slamming straight into the crimson formation underneath, zeroing in especially on the three legendary Void Armor-breaking Beasts—the prime focuses for the Shenxia Jiuli Ship and every Superdimensional Mother Ship in the group.

The pair of Void Armor-breaking Beasts focused forward had their weaker rear and flank areas wide open to the Torch attackers' firing zone.

At the same moment, Ji Heng back in distant Human Emperor City unleashed her pre-set distant backup barrages. A handful of mighty armaments carrying the legacy of their civilization fired up, as sky-piercing lances streaked across, syncing with the squadron's opening volley. Above, the blazing barrage from billions of Intermediate Rank Torch Warships on Human Emperor City's heights joined the fray completely, forging an unstoppable kill zone for the alien front's Blood Evil Battle Formation.

ROAR!!!!

A cry of agony boomed across the stars!

The two struck Void Armor-breaking Beasts had no chance to respond; armor built to withstand stellar impacts got shredded, liquefied, and blasted apart under the relentless near-point barrage!

Ink-green blood and broken innards burst forth in a downpour, caught in the raging Chaos Storm, turning a huge swath of chaotic emptiness vivid green in moments.

From a single assault wave, these two Tenth Rank mythical colossal creatures took heavy wounds, their life force draining away swiftly.
