As the message was broadcast, before long, the sky outside the entire Tianwu Mountain suddenly darkened, as if a dark cloud drifted over from the clear heavens. Upon closer inspection, this cloud was nothing but a dense swarm of human figures, streaking through the air. Trailing behind these figures were numerous warships.

At the sixth entrance of Tianwu Mountain, the divine-like man turned his head to see the surging crowd in the sky, and a flicker of light crossed his eyes. "The Luoshen Guard Legion!"

The Luoshen Guard was the most powerful garrison of the Luol family. Every member was a Pseudo-God expert, and each legion comprised 1,000 individuals, organized into small teams of ten. The squad leader was a High-Tier Pseudo-God! Every hundred men formed a company, commanded by a peak Pseudo-God!

As for the commander of the entire legion, they had to be a peak Pseudo-God with the combat power of an Elementary Deity to qualify!

As for Deities..."

Within the Luol family, Deities all held positions as Elders in the Elder Hall.

Swish, swish, swish~~

These Luoshen Guard Legions arrived sweeping from the distance. Seeing the divine figure hovering in the mid-air, they paused slightly, exchanged a few words, and then proceeded into Tianwu Mountain.

"Encircle the entire Tianwu Mountain and wipe out that brat!" Luo Guo commanded icily through the communicator.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The commanders of the various Luoshen Guard Legions promptly responded, then dispersed, ordering their subordinates to man the eight exits of Tianwu Mountain. If Ye Chen was spotted, they were to intercept him immediately.

The rest would search within Tianwu Mountain.

The area of the entire Tianwu Mountain spanned roughly a thousand li. Each small team within these Luoshen Guard Legions possessed a Pseudo-God warship. By spreading out to search, with each person scouting a kilometer radius, they could instantaneously surround the entirety of Tianwu Mountain.

"This will surely offend many factions, but I can't worry about that now," Luo Guo murmured, clenching his fist on the sofa of his spaceship, a chilling light blazing in his eyes.

In another mountain range shrouded in swirling mist.

The runic spaceship probed deeper within, carving through layers of fog, when suddenly, a wave of intense danger surged from below, causing the surrounding floating mist to freeze solid.

"Not good, a Super-Divine Beast!" the green-robed old man cried out, quickly maneuvering the runic spaceship, deploying law power to slice through the domain of laws and flee the area.

"This Tianwu Mountain truly harbors many perilous zones. If an ordinary Pseudo-God carelessly stepped into one and encountered a Super-Divine Beast, they likely wouldn't even have a chance to escape," the green-robed old man admitted thankfully.

Ye Chen remained silent.

Although he possessed the imitation Universe Disc, deploying it consumed a massive amount of True God Stones. The more than 1,000 True God Stones scavenged from the Fengyue family were now reduced to just over 950.

Furthermore, the power of the imitation Universe Disc could only suppress the domain of an Elementary Deity, and the true strength of the opposing entity was terrifying. He currently possessed only over five million Pseudo-God Stones, enough to fire the secondary cannon barrels of the runic spaceship just five times.

If a real fight broke out, there was still a significant gap in power when facing a Super-Divine Beast; at best, he could only guarantee an escape from the right hand.

As the runic spaceship drifted up from the mountain range, a Luoshen warship exploring the mist behind them suddenly detected the runic ship’s outline. The ten Pseudo-God experts inside saw it, their eyes lighting up with surprise. "We found it!"

"Quick, notify the others!"

"Transmit the coordinates here to everyone else."

"Hahahaha, brothers, let's kill him!"

That warship immediately charged forward, carving through layers of mist, its cannon barrels extending from around the hull, switching to combat mode. The entire ship raised its protective shield, locking onto the runic spaceship, and opened fire directly!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~

Shell after shell was launched, bombing the stern of the runic spaceship. Before they could land, they were intercepted by the automatic protective shield surrounding the runic ship, each impact causing small ripples on the shield's surface.

"Hmm?" The green-robed old man glanced at the peak Pseudo-God warship detected by the scanner behind him, provided by Da Ai Ting Ting from the Baidu Dark Civilization Bar. He raised an eyebrow. "Are there really people in this world who don't fear death? Damn it, daring to cause trouble for your old grandpa Green—are they tired of living!"

He immediately swung the ship around, extended a third-level cannon barrel from within, aimed it at that warship, locked on, and fired with a roar!

"Not good!" The faces of those aboard the Luoshen warship changed drastically. "This is a Deity-level spaceship! Retreat quickly, and notify the company commanders! Only they can suppress it!"

The ship immediately began to turn, but the speed of the runic spaceship's shell far exceeded their movement. The golden-yellow beam struck the warship. Its defensive light shield automatically deployed, but before it could fully resist, it was pierced directly. The projectile slammed into the ship, causing it to shake violently, tearing a large hole through the hull, with sparks and electrical arcs sputtering from damaged precision instruments.

"Take another shot!" the green-robed old man roared.

Bang!

A blast of golden light struck true, landing precisely on the bow of the ship, directly piercing the special metallic material and wrecking crucial internal machinery.

"No! The ship is about to explode!"

"Retreat!"

Ten figures burst out from the Luoshen warship and dove into the surrounding clouds and mist.

Ye Chen's gaze flickered. With a turn of his palm, the verdant, crystalline imitation Universe Disc spun rapidly, sending out a ripple centered on him, spreading outward to cover a one-kilometer radius.

Within this spacetime domain, Ye Chen immediately sensed the precise location of the ten men, a cruel arc curving his lips. With a thought, the space enveloping the ten men suddenly contracted, suppressing their bodies.

"What!"

"What is this thing!"

"Could it be a Domain Artifact!!"

The faces of the ten men turned ashen, their eyes filled with intense horror. They hadn't expected the enemy to possess a Domain Artifact. If that were the case, within Tianwu Mountain, where Deities were forbidden, wouldn't they have a massive advantage?

As they stared in shock, the space wrapping their bodies violently constricted, pinning them so they couldn't move an inch, dragging them before the runic spaceship. The hatch opened, and they were directly taken inside.

The ten men hovered in the semi-air within the runic spaceship, feeling as if an invisible hand were grasping their throats. Their internal meridians were blocked, and their Pseudo-God power could not circulate, causing their faces to turn purple with strain.

"Who are you?" A cold light passed through Ye Chen's eyes. He glanced almost imperceptibly at the unified medal pinned to their chests—a rhomboid crystal.

"You... you bastard..." "We won't... won't tell you!"

The ten men struggled frantically, glaring fiercely at Ye Chen. Having undergone unified training to join the Luoshen Guard Legion of the Luol family, if they revealed information so easily, the Luol family wouldn't deserve to be a transcendent major family in Tianzhou City!

Ye Chen's expression was cold. "You are from the Luol family? Besides you, how many others have come to Tianwu Mountain?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Kill us if you want to!"

"Too much chatter! Why ask so many questions!"

All ten glared angrily at Ye Chen.

"Ouch!" The green-robed old man rolled up his sleeves and floated over. "You little whelps, still tough even when facing death? Are you tired of living? Do you want to sample your grandpa Green's eighteen tortures?"

"You soul-body, get out of the way!" one of the men sneered.

"Hey!" The green-robed old man, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, became instantly enraged. He shouted at Xiao Hei, "Kill them!"

"Wait!" Kaba stepped forward, arriving before the man who had spoken, provided by Da Ai Ting Ting from the Baidu Dark Civilization Bar. He stretched his joints and cracked his knuckles with a kaka sound. His eyes were sinister, and he sneered, "Damn it, daring to mock a soul body? Today, your grandpa will let you taste the power of a soul body!"

He threw a punch, striking the man squarely on the bridge of the nose, causing blood to immediately gush out. A cruel smile curved his lips. "How many of you are there? If you don't speak, I'll personally transform you alive into a puppet! You can imagine what it feels like when every muscle, vein, and cell is altered!"

"You!" The man's face turned ashen, but he instantly thought of the Luol family's punishment for anyone who divulged military secrets. He stiffened his neck. "You want me to talk? No way!"

Kaba frowned slightly, turned to look at Ye Chen, and asked, "With your mental energy, can you control his thoughts?"

Ye Chen shook his head slightly. "Pseudo-God realm individuals are at least at the fifth stage of Mind Wisdom. Only by hypnotizing someone whose mind is significantly lower can one succeed."

Xiao Hei chuckled. "No need for such trouble. I'll handle it."

Ye Chen nodded slightly.

If he truly needed to use hypnosis, with the illusion techniques of the "Cycle Space," he could directly cause the man's consciousness to collapse and then extract the required information.

However, that would consume his own spirit. With the Black Cicada Worms available, using them was much more efficient.

"Die!" Ye Chen squeezed his palm.

Bang!

The man's head was violently squeezed and exploded by the space, leaving a headless corpse. Xiao Hei turned back to the 89 remaining Black Cicada Worms that hadn't occupied a body. "Little ones, who wants to use this body?"

"Me!" One Black Cicada Worm volunteered, floating over and burrowing into the human body.

In the bewildered and uncertain gazes of the other nine men, the corpse that had just died suddenly twitched a finger, then, recalling the body's cellular memory, rapidly regrew a head, identical to the original.

"Tsk tsk... ha..." The man touched his face, finding the sensation quite novel. Then, realizing something, he quickly bowed respectfully to Ye Chen. "Boss, this time, ten Luoshen Guard Legions have arrived. Each legion has 1,000 men, and they are surrounding us."

The eyes of the other nine nearly popped out, their faces etched with shock.

Ye Chen nodded slightly. "What is the general strength level of the Luoshen Guard Legion members?"

The man bowed deeply. "They are all Pseudo-God strength. They form groups of ten, with the squad leader having a peak Pseudo-God warship. One hundred men form a company, and the company commander has an Elementary Deity warship! As for the legion commander's ship, it's a Mid-Tier Deity warship!"

Ye Chen paused, frowning. "No wonder Luo Dan would send these Pseudo-God level individuals to (encircle and suppress); it turns out they have Mid-Tier Deity warships!"

The other nine men were stunned speechless when they saw this man confess everything and then act so humbly and politely toward Ye Chen. In their shock and anger, they vaguely realized this man was no longer the same person he had been moments before.

"What should we do?" Kaba asked with a frown.

Ye Chen replied coldly, "See one, kill one!"
