Chapter 1416: Clash between Heaven-Ranks

After turning off the Skylink, Zhao Yunfeng spat at it. His side of the battle was gradually stabilizing. The opposing Allen Porter had realized the enemy fleet’s problem. In actual fact, he had sensed it the previous battle. Initially, he was worried that it was a trap, but subsequently, from the investigations done by the intelligence department, Allen Porter understood the Solar System’s internal issues. Since his opponent wanted a stand still, that was great. Allen Porter had allowed Maacah’s 89th fleet to help reinforce other battlefields, as long as the planetary-level main ship remained here. He did not expect to fight a battle like this today.

Zhao Yunfeng sensed it as well. He had a smile on his face. On the other side was a smart person as well. This had left him undefeated in terms of politics.

Watching the cannon fire outside the window, Zhao Yunfeng had a feeling. He waved his hands. The beautiful major was stunned, but looking at Zhao Yunfeng’s expression, she went over. He pointed to the floor, and the sexy major knelt down. Her skirt was shorter than that of the regular uniform, and her slender, white legs made it more seductive. Zhao Yunfeng’s big hands were touching her head, while the command crew pretended to not see anything. Zhao Yunfeng’s face showed a satisfied smile. This was life’s joy, power was the best. Whatever revival, he did not care about it. And not just that, he had to destroy it.

The higher ups in the whole fleet were his people. If Drachmach tried to play dirty, he would get even dirtier.

The whole battlefield “standstill” gave another person an opportunity. Zhang Shan was prepared for a tough battle. With his strength, especially with his unique spatial abilities, Zhang Shan had the confidence to get near a planetary-level battleship. Not to mention, he had the strongest tactic. However, the toughest part was to break through the enemy’s laser web. Even as an Earth-rank warrior, if he was careless, he would be killed and the mech would be destroyed. He had yet to reach the inner universe stage, so losing his mech would be instant death, but as he went deeper, he could clearly feel that the firepower… It was weird, it felt a bit weak. The tempo felt wrong – this did not sound like the firepower of a fight to the death.

Zhang Shan could not care so much. This was his opportunity. After getting through the wave of lasers, he quickly discovered enemy mech warriors. The opposing mech warriors were shocked. What kind of idiot would be here? Suddenly, there were more than ten mech warriors charging towards him.

Zhang Shan charged forward as well, evading the blasts, and an enemy was near him, slicing towards him.

Shing…

Zhang Shan’s mech was unable to avoid it, and took a direct hit. A series of sparks could be seen, becoming a beautiful firework in space.

This did not make a ripple in the whole battlefield. Even though he was part of the famous Greatest King team, this would at most end up as a remark on the after-battle report.

All intelligence was submitted to Drachmach, Meng Ao, and Lie Wuqing firsthand. Zhang Shan was neither major nor minor. The military was still pinning their hopes on him, but this was his first actual battle, and he was not following orders. He was acting on his own, which would lead to his death.

Drachmach no longer had the time to care about Zhang Shan, and even expected better from him. He had a deeper meaning in putting Zhang Shan under Zhang Yunfeng: to give Zhang Yunfeng some pressure. Zhang Shan was second only to Wang Zheng, and had influence over Earth’s army. However, his judgment was wrong. Zhang Shan’s influence was weaker than expected, and he did not expect Zhang Shan to act on his own in a moment of rage.

From Drachmach’s view, if he was not being reckless, why else would Zhang Shan leave the unit behind and act on his own?

Deep down, no one looked up to Zhang Shan. He was simply following Wang Zheng, Achilles, Lie Xin, and the rest, and had managed to achieve the Greatest King title by doing so. He was not good enough to carry his own weight, and was simply a representative of Earth. And on Earth, he had a decent reputation. However, he ended up disappointing everyone.

Drachmach had no time for this. The pressure on the main battlefield was increasing, and on another battlefield, the clash between the four Heaven-ranks was reaching its final stages.

Shelley Ritter and Lie Shuangtian knew in their hearts that due to the mastery of the inner universe by Heaven-ranks, defense capabilities would be extremely strong, and just like in war, it would require major damage to injure the enemy. The skill levels of both parties were similar, with no exceptional advantages. For them to win, they would have to make a killer move, to risk making one. It could be considered an attack that would mutually destroy each other.

Lie Shuangtian’s nature was much more anxious, and at this point in time, there was no point in dragging this on. At Heaven-rank and at his age, he had seen past life and death. For Mars’ honor, Martians were willing to die.

With one blow, he swept away Zar. Lie Shuangtian smiled. “Sister Doyle, I will be leaving first.”

Shelley Ritter’s mind was clear. It seemed like at Heaven-rank, there was nothing holding them back, and no one could do anything to them. This kind of thinking was wrong. Reaching Heaven-rank required a strong mentality with unwavering perseverance. Heaven-ranks were not as cold as people might think, they might even be more intense. Their families had engraved it into their souls, it was just that they would not have intense emotions like a normal warrior, and simply smile when facing death.

Lie Shuangtian’s flames began from the inside out. Space was filled with a bright red color, the intense aura permeating the air. Zar did not retreat. An all out attack by a Heaven-rank could not be dodged, and the power of the inner universe exploded.

Lie Shuangtian’s Heaven-rank power was the flame domain, to burn everything, even the soul. The moment you came near the domain, it was not possible to leave – this was his domain’s specialty.

Zar’s ability was the rare and unpredictable spatial ability. He could move through space freely. These kinds of people were the scariest before Heaven-rank. However, the Heaven-rank domain was space imprisonment. Space was complicated, making it useless, and Zar knew of this, hence he immediately used his greatest strength.

This kind of imprisonment surpassed any type of negative energy, and completely imprisoned any enemy, even if the enemy was deep within a domain. Lie Shuangtian’s infinite increase in the power of flames was frozen. The two streams of energy clashed with each other, releasing blinding light. Zar’s lock down was reaching its limit – it was not enough. Moreover, Lie Shuangtian was risking his life. His entire body turned to the color of magma, with cracks all over it. However, his spiritual power continued to increase, and it was about to break through Zar’s imprisonment.

Drachmach and Boloni kept their distance. It was easy to be damaged by a death battle between two Heaven-ranks, especially with Lie Shuangtian’s destructive power. Drachmach lightly sighed. Zar was hoping to restrict the growth of his power, and for Lie Shuangtian to self-destruct, but he was underestimating the strength of the Lie Flame Technique. The growth of this technique was not for self-destruction.

Weng~~~~~

Lie Shuangtian’s whole body turned into the color of flames, and the mech disappeared. As a life form, this was a miraculous state, the flame soul state. Lie Shuangtian had surpassed the limits of the human body and strength. This was the universal life form state. Zar’s spatial imprisonment could no longer hold it, and Lie Shuangtian’s energy continued to increase.
