The light was even more blinding than the sun in the sky, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
After a thunderous roar, the invisible Imperial Defense Shield materialized, also radiating a glow.
However, the glow of the Imperial Defense Shield was softer, yet it managed to repel the blinding light from outside.
Citizens within the Immortal and Demon Empire could also clearly see what was happening outside.
Upon seeing the Imperial Defense Shield appear, some immediately knelt and cried out.
"Heavens, my great Lord Emperor!"
"It is the shield set up for us by the Lord Emperor!"
"I shall dedicate my life to him!"
"..."
The three main gods, Ji Mie, Shen Zhu, and Xue Tu, looked on with grim expressions at first.
Then, in the next second, the massive defense shield emitted a "buzzing" sound, and the three faces lit up with joy.
"Hmm? It seems a turning point is coming!"
They watched as the torrential attacks relentlessly pounded the defense shield.
At this moment, the defense shield seemed on the verge of collapse, trembling slightly before their eyes.
Zhong Mo Zhi Shen, Jessie Qiong Xi, immediately said:
"Quick, let's take this opportunity to strike again and shatter this defense shield!" Da Feng Xiao Shuo Wang
The other two main gods immediately responded, channeling their divine power.
In an instant, the earth-shattering attack erupted once more.
After the second attack, the already trembling defense shield seemed even closer to giving way.
The trembling intensified, and the "buzzing" sound grew incredibly loud, audible even to mortals without divine power.
It felt as though it was about to shatter.
At this moment, the citizens of the Immortal and Demon Empire became anxious again.
"What do we do? The defense shield seems like it can't hold on."
"The Lord Emperor surely didn't expect three shameless main gods to attack us."
"No matter what, the Lord Emperor has taken the other gods to the [Otherworld Evil Extermination Event], so we can't just wait here to die."
"If the defense shield truly shatters, then I will fight them for my home!"
"Me too!"
"We cannot let these invaders trample our homes wantonly!"
At this point, the citizens had completely forgotten their fear and picked up whatever usable weapons were at hand.
Although they were just seemingly useless tools like hoes and bricks.
Yet, this expressed their unwavering determination not to yield to external forces.
This scene elicited further mockery from the three main gods.
Hess Adam, the Lord Emperor of the Glorious Empire, crossed his arms, looking at the citizens with the eyes of the condemned.
"A bunch of ungrateful ants dare to oppose me, truly ignorant!"
Although Ji Mie, Shen Zhu, and Xue Tu disliked Hess Adam, the Lord Emperor of the Glorious Empire, they strongly agreed with his words at this moment.
"Once I breach the empire, I will kill all these arrogant commoners, then extract their souls and have my puppets teach them a lesson!"
Ji Mie, Shen Zhu, and Xue Tu's actions were exceptionally wicked; they would not only kill their bodies but also imprison their souls.
This was a direct challenge to the long-standing laws of the Primordial Continent.
For although the citizens lacked divine power, they possessed immense labor capabilities and could provide the purest faith power.
There was a rule on the Primordial Continent that civilians should not be killed indiscriminately.
Zhong Mo Zhi Shen, Jessie Qiong Xi, disagreed somewhat. He frowned, opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing, falling silent.
He consoled himself in his heart.
"Never mind, they are just insignificant commoners after all, nothing major.
At worst, after I go in and rescue Li Erna, the God of Annihilation, I won't kill them."
Having made up his mind, Zhong Mo Zhi Shen, Jessie Qiong Xi, stopped speaking and silently watched the defense shield bravely resisting the attacks.
After watching for a while, he seemed to notice something amiss and suddenly frowned.
"This shouldn't be. Why hasn't this defense shield shattered after such a long time!"
This was truly terrifying. Zhong Mo Zhi Shen, Jessie Qiong Xi, asked himself.
If he were subjected to two attacks from three main gods, could he still last this long?
The answer was definitely no, he could not!
He would likely have been killed by the first attack.
Yet, this never-before-seen defense shield possessed such formidable defensive capabilities.
After two strikes, it could still barely exist.
What in the world was this thing that could be so powerful?
As Zhong Mo Zhi Shen, Jessie Qiong Xi, pondered, he also felt a surge of greed, wanting to claim this defense shield for himself.
Ji Mie, Shen Zhu, and Xue Tu also found it troublesome. He impatiently spoke again:
"Again! I don't believe that without Xiao Mo here, the three of us can't even break through a defense shield!"
Hess Adam, the Lord Emperor of the Glorious Empire, wrinkled his nose. Failing to break the defense shield after two attempts made him extremely frustrated.
Therefore, this time, he raised his scepter and injected all his divine power into it.
Clearly, he was exerting his full strength.
Not only him, but the other two main gods also used their full power.
They didn't want to delay any longer. If they dragged on, perhaps the Faith Beast God faction and the Nature Goddess would be alerted at any moment.
If these two major factions arrived, things would become much more troublesome.
Therefore, with the full might of the three main gods, this attack was particularly terrifying.
Even the nearby gods dared not approach, retreating far away.
Fearing they would be harmed when the Imperial Defense Shield shattered.
Rumble!
A colossal explosion sounded, creating a wave of heat accompanied by surging divine power.
It made the entire earth tremble.
The gods outside, witnessing this commotion, made their estimations.
"The three main gods unleashed such immense divine power, the defense shield must be shattered by now!"
"What 'must be'! It will definitely be shattered!"
"The three main gods are so powerful, perhaps even the things inside the defense shield have been completely destroyed!"
"Ah? If everything inside is destroyed, what are we even here for?"
"That's true."
"..."
All the gods present were convinced that the defense shield would undoubtedly shatter.
However, amidst the rumbling explosion, they did indeed hear a cracking sound.
But after the explosion ceased and the thick fog dispersed.
Although the defense shield was covered in cracks, it still stood firmly above the Immortal and Demon Empire!
