The spiritual energy barrier he raised was shattered in two strikes. Bathed in a rain of blood, flesh tore apart, pus and blood oozed, and his scalp instantly rotted away, revealing pale bone beneath, still corroded by the blood rain. "Hurry, get inside the building!!" "A house, a house! There's a house nearby!!" "Baka, you idiot, get away!!!" "Let me go in first!!" "Who exactly is it? Why are they attacking us out of nowhere!?" "I just heard someone shout 'Heavenly Perception enemy attack'—it's the Heavenly Perception, they're sneaking up on us!!" "It must be Great Han's Heavenly Perception." Below, chaos reigned like a boiling pot. Everything happened in an instant; Lu Ding’s movements were too fast. No one expected him to take direct action. Normally, under these circumstances, since they were already on the enemy’s territory, some words would have been exchanged first. Just like before, when Wei Gao’s Heavenly Perception moved against Tai Island. That was the standard procedure. There would be a zero-frame opening prepared, and dialogue would ensue. But with Lu Ding: space space space space... skip skip skip... *& & *￥#—fight!!!! The ten Great Han Heavenly Perception operatives were caught off guard by this sudden situation. So this was the decisive method!? They thought the approach would be no listening to excuses, just kill them; but they didn’t expect no words at all, just an immediate attack. Kobayashi Hiroya was stunned for a moment. Then he recovered and shouted, “Stop right now...” His three words were immediately cut off by Lu Ding. Lu Ding commanded the Great Han clean-up squad, “Leaders, attack!!” Earlier, they had told Lu Ding to think things through carefully, granting him command authority over these ten operatives. This was also a sign of trust. Now that Lu Ding spoke, they couldn’t fully understand why his approach differed so much from their previous mindset. Following Lu Ding was the right choice!!! If he could do this, he must have thought through a comprehensive plan. Without wasting words, the ten operatives launched their attack. Kobayashi Hiroya panicked and tried to stop them: “Stop!!!” The incense of the Saw-Buddha floated behind Lu Youhan, and a giant Buddha statue kicked Kobayashi Hiroya, sending him plummeting toward Whaleguard Island below: “Get lost.” There were differences even among Heavenly Perception operatives. The city gate caught fire and the fish in the pond were affected, but now they had a city gate (Kobayashi Hiroya). In an instant, special effects filled the sky. The most exaggerated was the Living Stele King, Guan Zhongsheng, who held up with both hands a blazing red double-eared furnace larger than a mountain. The lava-like molten liquid poured down onto Whaleguard Island. Their last large-scale assault had been during the time when the Great Han was engulfed in flames. In terms of seniority, they were far older than Lu Ding. Coupled with their own issues, and the changing times and thoughts, they could not understand why Lu Ding had taken action so abruptly. It was like the older generation not understanding why young people suddenly didn’t want to marry anymore. But that didn’t matter. The main point was to obey. None of them held back. Things like palm seal punches were just minor skills. Those who obeyed launched their ultimate moves directly. Since they didn’t understand, they followed the arrangements of Lu Ding, the ‘professional’ at zero-frame openings. The terrifying scene of interwoven techniques and spells unfolded. Falling, Kobayashi Hiroya screamed in despair: “No!!!!” The attacks hit, striking both man and island alike. The familiar scene allowed the three Heavenly Perception operatives of Wei Gao to die with peace. Because their original plan was exactly this. The Great Han’s Heavenly Perception, Tai Island, and Lu Ding attacked together!!! Explosions rang out, mushroom clouds soaring skyward. The molten lava poured from the furnace, burning and destroying the island, and when it met the seawater, white mist rose. At once, nearly half of Whaleguard Island sank on the spot. Only now did Lu Ding see several Heavenly Perception operatives from Tai Island appear, forming hand seals and summoning artifacts to circulate spiritual energy, reinforcing formation spells to block the remaining attacks. a returning boomerang struck again. Their hasty defense could not withstand the great power of Lu Ding’s attack. One after another, they spat blood, their flesh splitting with cracks, a pitiful sight. Lu Ding was satisfied. From this point, all of Wei Gao’s schemes were fully returned to Tai Island. Many attacking few, sneak attack hitting head-on, powerful attack covering all. The only difference was that this was international waters, and the Heavenly Perception here were of high quality, plus they had the home advantage of the Heavenly Perception formation. Below, a few Tai Island Heavenly Perception operatives struggling to resist, with injuries worsening, spat blood and angrily asked, “You!!! Why are you attacking Whaleguard Island!?” “Heavenly Perception cannot strike the battlefield below, that’s the rule!!!” They didn’t understand. Wasn’t the original plan for Wei Gao to sneak attack Tai Island and target Lu Ding? How did it suddenly become Great Han attacking Whaleguard Island? Who could have guessed? It was completely baffling. They didn’t even consider that they were in cahoots with Wei Gao. Now, they felt rather aggrieved. High-quality Heavenly Perception realm combat could determine victory or defeat quickly, but deciding life or death was not something settled in such a short time. Moreover, now that Heavenly Perception held off the attack, Lu Ding’s Bloodstorm couldn’t penetrate. He simply withdrew his spells, refusing to waste effort. He grasped his blood-red long blade and charged down. Formation? Protection? Formations could block spells; protections could block Heavenly Perception. But they could never block Lu Ding, who had never shut off his White Snake Shakes Scales technique. “If Tai Island can join Wei Gao to attack the battlefield below on Tai Island, isn’t it only natural for us to fight back?” As soon as Lu Ding said this, several Tai Island Heavenly Perception operatives were shaken in spirit. They couldn’t admit it, absolutely could not admit it. Although they didn’t know exactly what happened, the fact that Lu Ding was still alive proved Wei Gao’s plan had failed. Wei Gao should bear the consequences. “We don’t understand what you’re saying!” Pretending to be dumb? Lu Ding had no desire to argue with them now. This matter would be confronted later, and evidence could be brought then. He believed that when footage and statements from the dying Wei Gao Heavenly Perception operative Cui Zaimin were presented, the expressions of Tai Island’s higher-ups would be quite interesting. Tai Island: Since when did Cui Zaimin become our Tai Island Heavenly Perception? As Lu Ding drew closer to the protective barrier, his current goal was to kill these Tai Island Heavenly Perception operatives who were temporarily holding the formation and artifacts, preventing displacement! Everyone’s gaze fell on Lu Ding. Their only thought was: What does he want to do? Does he want to come inside? This was the main battlefield in international waters, and also one of Tai Island’s garrisons. The formation circulating here could block Heavenly Perception!!! He was a Qi Refiner with the Earth Observation realm aura. There was absolutely no way he could get inside! Today, I organized the later storyline and spent a lot of energy and time on it, so I updated one chapter less today. Fans who like it, please encourage me to update faster.
