CHAPTER 697: CHAPTER 422: WARSHIP ROARS, THE MEANING OF MARTIAL ARTIST

Crack, crack!!

Under the high sky, the cracks in the blood-colored barrier spread rapidly.

A fierce and primitive impact, under the angry shouts of many people, the combined attack of everyone erupted completely!

Boom!!

The sturdy blood-colored barrier trembled violently, blasting open a huge gap.

The blue sky reappeared in the world, and the drifting clouds reflected in the eyes.

The people of the district all widened their eyes at this moment, shocked and stunned, even those collapsed and curled up in the corners raised their heads, revealing an increasingly bright light of hope.

Boom!!

The shattered blood-colored spiritual light flickered and dissipated, a half-naked young man stood side by side with the Platinum Giant Statue, suspended in the air.

The crystal on his clenched fist shattered, and a dim golden light was visible on his body surface.

Strands of explosive red-gold flame swirled and dissipated, and white steam rose from his body once again.

"Hoo!!"

Letting out a breath of foul air, Chen Feng forcibly pressed down the scorching heat within his body, and the discomfort of the Heart of Life reaching the purification limit by the filth of the Black Tide.

Although he paid a certain price, approaching the limit he could withstand.

However, he did not feel heavy, instead, he felt a little relieved.

Because...

Whoosh!!

Wang Cheng, spewing red and blue tail flames, met his gaze, nodded, and plunged into the gap of the barrier.

The sword and shield badge of the Legendary Crystal on the left chest reflected colorful light, under the blue sky, military Mechanical Martial and Transformed People support rushed into the pierced barrier one after another.

One person, ten people, a hundred people....

The sound of breaking through the air continued, and more and more cracks appeared in the barrier.

Flying devices and fighter jets descended domineeringly, countless eyes fixed on the scene of the district.

"These damn church bastards!"

Someone was the first to speak, face angry, fists clenched tightly.

Looking around, one could see collapsed tall buildings, a wrecked ruin.

The asphalt road was full of deep pits and cracks, streetlights toppled, and broken wires still sparkled.

The bodies of the sacrificed military Transformed People exploded, and warriors and passersby stained the earth with blood.

The atmosphere was briefly silent because of this, many people within the district were helped to their feet, facing the figures of the arriving support.

Dong!!

Suddenly, the scale claws of the Gate of Darkness moved again.

A gust of air swept, strong wind whistling.

Amidst the flying dust, terrifying creatures in the pitch-black darkness seemed to try one last time, as new Black Tide creatures flew out like locusts.

The last barrier, shattered and broken, burst forth with blood light again, revealing Kedemo’s barely restored body, with two scarlet hearts floating beside him, as if intending to resurrect the dead robed man and Batman.

Seeing this scene, Chen Feng’s loosened fingers clenched tightly again, turning around in mid-air, overlooking alongside Wang Cheng.

"Shouldn’t it be over?"

He asked in a deep voice, the red-gold flame on his body swirling again, and the shattered Glazed Crystal seemed healed as if molten iron was poured over it.

Not having time to investigate his strength, nor questioning why the White Giant also reached a Legendary Level.

Wang Cheng nodded with a cold gaze, silver liquid metal covered his entire body.

"Smash him!"

Whoosh!!!

The two shot out simultaneously, the military Mechanical Martial support looked towards the Black Tide, eyes filled with murderous intent, unable to restrain themselves any longer.

"Damn it!"

"Fire!!"

Boom boom boom!!

An onslaught of bombing covered the sky, the airborne waves tearing the sky apart.

Missiles, sniper cannons, advanced bombs....

The reappearing black flood was like meeting a meat grinder, torn apart madly.

A blood rain scattered everywhere, Zhao Feijiang and others who had long lost the strength to fight again looked up, their expressions excited.

Under countless gazes, the two streaks of red-gold and silver light had already pierced through all the firepower, air waves, and Black Tide obstructions, reaching the front of the Gate of Darkness.

"Rampant!!"

For the first time, Kedemo showed anger, suddenly emitting two blood-colored beams from his chest, rushing left and right towards Chen Feng and Wang Cheng.

The corrosive power was oppressive, and the distortion of terrifying creatures invaded from the spiritual level.

But instead, Chen Feng and Wang Cheng’s speed didn’t slow in the slightest, instead, it increased as they flew up.

"Leave it to me!"

Wang Cheng’s cold voice echoed, and two streams of liquid metal shot out from his silver body.

The magnetic light flashed, and a silver conical turret formed instantly, threads of rainbow light converged.

Boom!!

Dazzling blue light bloomed, dimming the sky for an instant.

The advanced energy cannon’s strike scattered the blood-colored beam, leaving Chen Feng unhindered as he shot forth with whistling electric light, arriving at Kedemo’s side.

"Want to kill me?"

Cold voice threatened, Kedemo’s eyes were cold, although the speed at which the two hearts beside him resurrected the robed man and Batman was extremely slow, they reluctantly managed to resurrect half of them.

Four eyes met, spiritual will encountered intangible assault.

As if the wolf-bat creature descended on the spiritual world again.

Chen Feng was expressionless, streams of Burning Universe Flame condensed between his punch marks, transforming into a ferocious red-gold tiger head.

Roar!!!

Tiger roar echoed, darkness shattered.

The wolf-bat creature in the spiritual world exploded instantly, the technique of the Day Tiger igniting everything, reemerging in the world.

Boom!!

The explosive power compressed here, twisting space and vision.

Moreover, the Gang Qi of Golden Day rampaged with impact, fusing the Martial Artist’s spirit!

Bang bang!!

The black robed man and Batman, with widened eyes, exploded instantly, the horror in their eyes burned away by red flames.

The right arm with bulging veins punched through everything, smashing the splattered flesh, heading straight for Kedemo’s chest and abdomen.

"Get lost!!"

Suddenly, a cold shout arose.

A blood-colored beam of light suddenly shot from the scarlet giant eye of the Gate of Darkness, aiming directly at Chen Feng.

Kedemo’s body was instantly enveloped, the intangible momentum soared higher.

Boom!!!

Immediately, in the chest and abdomen, the savage raging power erupted wantonly.

The blood light and red flames clashed again, the world’s temperature soaring continuously.

"Do you think you can erase the power of my arrival?"

Kedemo spoke coldly, the blood-colored beam from the main body was like a sturdy barrier, guarding him firmly, unshakeable.

The humanoid body’s form was showing signs of distortion, with tumors and bat wings growing out.

Countless scarlet eyes opened on its flesh, bringing endless malice that assaulted everyone’s minds, trying to drag this world back into hell.

"Go back to your world!!"

Whoosh!!

Wang Cheng, a step ahead, coldly shouted as he swiftly joined Chen Feng’s side, with the turret behind him rotating into a circle.

Intense electromagnetic arcs burst from his body, erupting blinding rainbow light and high-temperature molten flame at the instant of the Bombardment Punch.

Boom!!

The two of them launched a joint attack, the red-gold and rainbow lights each covering half the sky, while the blood-colored barrier shattered with a crack.

’Kedemo’ wore a grim expression, and then he saw the golden light on Chen Feng’s surface compressing once more, stimulating his body and raising his aura again!

Bam!!

The brute force trembled, and the blood-colored beam shattered explosively.

The punch marks from the Martial Artist and the Legendary Flying General created sonic booms, exploding white vapor rings, and simultaneously struck its head and chest.

Bam bam bam!!!

The head exploded and the chest vanished.

All the scarlet eyes opening on its flesh burst open in unison.

The splattered flesh and blood evaporated in mid-air, eradicated by energy.

Only half of the body remained standing in the void, as if an unusual fragment of power was deeply hidden within the flesh, extremely covert.

With a shift in Perception, Chen Feng squinted, instantly detecting the anomaly.

The Bombardment Punch arm quietly swept over, and the panel’s prompt flashed by.

The hidden power vanished in an instant, as if it never appeared, unnoticed even by Wang Cheng.

Roar!!

At that moment, it seemed like some kind of taboo had been triggered.

A roar shook the heavens, and another blood-colored beam shot out from the Gate of Darkness.

"You’re courting death!!!"

’Kedemo’s’ voice echoed again, seemingly everywhere, and exceptionally furious.

The blood-colored beam supported a barrier, and the sky and earth trembled unusually.

Traces of scarlet spread across the barrier’s gap, as if trying to repair it continually, aiming to once again enshroud the world.

At that same moment, a massive scaled claw at the Gate of Darkness tore through the sky dome, ripping the earth as it rushed directly towards Chen Feng and Wang Cheng.

The terrifying wolf-like head with scarlet giant eyes seemed more imminent, ready to pierce through the darkness and fully descend.

The swinging scaled claw obscured the sky and sun, seemingly warping the very space around it.

And before all of this,

"Still trying the same trick?"

Wang Cheng sneered, standing alongside Chen Feng, showing no intention to dodge.

Boom!!!

Immediately, searing red and blue beams fell from the sky, completely shattering the blood-colored barrier being repaired!

The azure sky perfectly appeared, as scattered clouds drifted in all directions.

At this moment, everyone in Nanjiang District felt a sting in their eyes, leaving only daylight.

Faintly, a gigantic silver-gray warship had somehow appeared in the high skies above Nanjiang District, with rows of energy cannons erupting beams, reinforcing the massive central laser cannon.

Boom!!

The tens of meters thick red and blue beam energy surged, striking over a thousand meters straight at the descending black scaled claw.

All the buildings along the way turned to flying ash, while the Black Tide Creatures and fiery missiles were obliterated simultaneously.

The formidable energy strike blossomed overhead Chen Feng and Wang Cheng, repelling the claw on the spot, even advancing towards the angelic true form at the Gate of Darkness.

Roar!!

Roaring echoed, with foggy seas roiling within the hundred-meter-sized Gate of Darkness.

The fearsome and ferocious wolf head firmly withstood the warship’s main cannon’s blast, its scarlet vertical pupils locked on Chen Feng, full of icy murderous intent.

Crack crack crack!

For a moment, the void fissures continually crackled and trembled, as if about to expand, yet shrinking.

The angel and the warship appeared at a stalemate, with the force of rules continually constrained by some power.

In response to this,

Boom!!!

Another hundred-meter warship suddenly jumped into view, streaking across the sky, unleashing lasers.

The intense bombardment shook the world, clearing the black mist and directly entering the Gate of Darkness.

The blinding daylight made all district residents feel their eyes sting, tears streaming down, unable to open their eyes.

Until finally,

A roar reverberated, continuing for dozens of seconds.

The sweeping airwaves turned into a gale, dispersing all the dust and black smoke.

One by one, those from Nanjiang strained to open their eyes, fighting off discomfort, looking up.

The giant scaled claw outside the Gate of Darkness, tearing everything asunder, along with the terrifying creature within, vanished completely.

The void fissures, like wounds of the world, were gradually healing, with the spatial rift shrinking.

"Has it.... succeeded?"

Chu Shihong and Han Chao and others trembled as they spoke, with the black mist above the sky no longer appearing.

The mutated monsters also disappeared, along with the corpses in the ground’s ruins, becoming increasingly illusory as if drained of power.

Everything seemed like a dream.

But looking around,

The once bustling city had greatly changed, with the former high-rises replaced by many ruins.

The torn ground was full of deep pits, and under the cracked walls, the residents were survivors of a calamity, shedding tears.

"It’s... over."

"The disaster, it’s over."

"We survived....."

Shaking voices echoed one after another, some sat down weakly, others embraced in gratitude.

Lin Hao and Uncle Liu both exhaled a breath of turbid air, Meng Anran unconsciously released the five fingers tightly clenched in the sleeve of his trench coat.

Chen Yun and the others from the Yanwu Gym supported each other to stand, while others around gradually emerged from curling corners to stand under the sky’s sunshine.

The long-lost warmth, a survivor’s gratitude....

Around, eyes lifted; beyond the numerous flying devices, the damage from this disaster was vast, with innumerable people defending against an aerial invasion at the cost of their lives.

What remained most unforgettable was....

Eyes quietly fixed, eventually stopping at the naked upper body of a young man’s back.

"Is this.... a Martial Artist?"

Wang Zhou, the young man named as such, stepped on rubble, his gaze complex, clenching his fist.

He felt he perhaps understood.

The true meaning of a Martial Artist.
