875 Cmity Strikes


    As he was retreating, the Golden Behemoth King looked towards the direction of the Kingdom of Dawn with a strange expression in his eyes – a mix of anger, solemnity, and a hint of concealed admiration. This feeling was extremelyplicated.


    Advancement to a royal city was a remarkable feat, miles ahead of thepetition.


    One step ahead, always ahead. The road to sess was paved with small wins. The Human race should not be underestimated.


    “However, let’s see how you will deal with the cmity that is about toe. The path of luck alwayses with tribtion during every ascension. I’ll let you be the canary in the coal mine!” The Behemoth King mused as he gazed at the Kingdom of Dawn.


    As a foreign country lord who descended from the system, he was intrinsically aware of the cmity that came with every promotion to the level of a royal city.


    It was a catastrophe of uncertain magnitude, and the unknown was invariably terrifying. He wanted to witness it with his own eyes, to fully absorb the experience, and prepare himself for it in the future.


    “Country Lord!”


    Li Xiang’s subordinates rushed over and paid their respects. “The ascension has beenpleted. It is likely that a real cmity will soon befall. Although we don’t know what it will be, whates with the promotion will definitely be more ominous than before.”


    No one dared to take the cmity lightly. The scene of the oing ck tides, the siege of the undead, and relentless pursuit by the Alliance of Gods remained vivid in their minds. No one knew what terrible things were going to happen.


    “It’s here!” Li Xiang drew in a deep breath and said slowly.


    He could feel a foreboding aura spreading in the air.


    Many civilians in the city remained calm and collected. They were aware that this was the moment when the true cmity would strike.


    Transparent clouds of ck Qi gathered in the void above the Kingdom of Dawn. A sense of impending doom lingered in the air.


    An invisible pitch-ck hole materialized, turning into a massive ck whirlpool that rapidly expanded.


    An oppressive force of Qi dynamics spread out from the whirlpool, triggering feelings of irritation and repulsion as if facing the natural enemy of fate.


    There appeared to be another world beyond the spinning vortex.


    “What is that ce? Why do I see a sinister world behind the whirlpool?”


    “No, I see a horde of monsters in slumber, breeding and spawning many others, stirring with new life. What kind of a world is that? Is it just an illusion?”


    “I saw it too. I seem to have seen the God of Demon sleeping. There is great terror and disaster within!”


    Countless civilians eximed in shock with horror etched on their faces.


    Li Xiang saw something beyond what most could see. A fleeting and bizarre scene in the depths of the whirlpool left a deep impression on him.


    He thought to himself, “What is that ce behind that whirlpool? It was not like the Subsidiary Worlds of Azure World. Is there really another world? Every time cmity strikes, it brings along the ck Qi. What is this ck Qi? Why does it feel so familiar?”


    Young Master Xu Kong also pondered, “Every time a city ascends, there must be a cmity. What secrets do these cmities hold?”


    His curiosity was as intense as ever, but he had no clue.


    Swish!


    ck rays of light swirled in the whirlpool. A colossal ck meteor suddenly emerged from it, aiming toward the Kingdom of Dawn, flickering with dark light and engulfed in ck mes. It was asrge as the Great Peng Bird.


    The meteor hurtled towards the Kingdom of Dawn with lightning speed.


    “What a huge meteorite! It would smash the entire Kingdom of Dawn to smithereens, wouldn’t it?!”


    “How horrifying! Is this the cmity? It’s a disaster! How can there be such a huge meteorite? It’s half the size of the City of Dawn. The impact alone could destroy half of the Kingdom of Dawn. How can this be? Who can survive such a catastrophe?”


    Many civilians and cultivators had a look of despair on their faces.


    No one could have imagined that the cmity woulde in a form of a huge meteorite.


    The destructive power of such an enormous object was unthinkable. ording to legend, several extinction events on Earth were caused by meteors. The civilization of dinosaurs was wiped out by the impact of enormous meteorites falling from the sky, resulting in catastrophic extinction.


    Although the current situation was not as apocalyptic, it was still a grave matter.


    The destruction it would bring was beyond imagination, even in the vastnd of the Kingdom of Dawn.


    Out of a few billion people, the chance of surviving was one in a million.


    The meteorite looked absolutely massive. Upon collision, the devastating force wouldpletely obliterate the Kingdom of Dawn, leaving no corner unscathed.


    Even a fool could see how dire the situation would be once the meteoritended.


    This was going to annihte the Kingdom of Dawn!


    “Immortal Vanquishing Sword, Army Shattering Sword. Kill!”


    The Hollow Sword Case appeared before the eyes of Young Master Xu Kong. With a flick of his finger, the two battle swords turned into sword light and shed toward the huge meteorite.


    “Tongue Sword, sh!”


    Imbued with righteous aura, an ancient sword shot out as Huang Chengyan summoned, lunging towards the meteorite,


    “Archers, crossbowmen, target, meteorite, fire!,”manded Li Jing.


    In an instant, a barrage of arrows was unleashed, resembling a deadly storm, raining down upon the meteorite.


    However, the range of these attacks was limited. Although the meteor lookedrge, in reality, it was still far above the ground, descending at an incredible speed.


    Only the attacks from Young Master Xu Kong and others could reach the meteor. The sh of the battle swords against the meteor unleashed a violent st. The task was already excruciatingly difficult, as the des struggled to prate the blistering ck mes. When the swords finally scratched the surface of the meteor, they were forcefully propelled away by explosive energy.


    The meteor’s surface was so hard that the battle swords could only leave varying depths of sword on it, without causing any substantial damage.


    The Tongue Sword was also useless against the unyielding meteor.


    “What should we do? The meteor is about to crash! Is there really no way to stop it?”


    “If the meteor falls, everything will be over.”


    “Did we survive the attack of the Orc Alliance Army only for us to die under this ridiculous meteor? This is simply absurd!”
