Chapter 561: Crushing

"So this is Aldebaran? It really looks hideous!" Nangong Nayue gazed at that massive body and couldn't help but frown.

The monster, a hybrid of who knows how many biological genetic factors, let out a threatening roar at Lingyun and the other person floating in mid-air.

"So noisy!" Nangong Nayue couldn't help but frown, then flipped her hand, and countless Wind Blades swept out from her palm, charging toward Aldebaran like an army.

"Sshh, sshh, sshh—"

Emerald green blood splattered as the Wind Blades carved countless wounds into Aldebaran's body. The blood dripped onto the ground, actually emitting puffs of green smoke; it was clearly highly corrosive.

"Lingyun, the color of this blood is a bit off!" Looking at the small pits corroded into the ground by the blood, Nangong Nayue couldn't help but frown.

"It's obvious that someone has tampered with Aldebaran!" Lingyun said. "But these aren't the problems right now; we have already surrounded them, let's do it!"

"Asuna, Yuuki, Lingyun says we can start!" Upon receiving the signal, Kirito said to Asuna beside her.

Asuna's rapier flickered, manifesting points of cold light: "Then let's do it!"

"Charge!" With dual swords in hand, Kirito launched a charge toward the Gastrea.

Elucidator and Dark Repulser, which had already been promoted to Kirito's exclusive weapons, emitted a faint glow, and under Kirito's wielding, they instantly blasted away the group of Gastrea in front of them.

With Kirito as the vanguard and Asuna and Yuuki as the flanks, the three of them fiercely gouged into the Gastrea formation.

"Kirito and the others have started, I should start on my end too!" Standing on a dilapidated building, Luo Yexi slowly raised the Nine Suns Heavenly Sword in her hand.

"First Form: Initial Sun Scorching the Sky!"

Another sun instantly appeared in the sky, and the scorching flames made the Gastrea below begin to grow restless.

"Fall!"

Luo Yexi waved her hand, and the sun in the sky instantly plummeted toward the direction of the Gastrea army.

A golden-red light soared into the sky, and all the Gastrea within the area shrouded by the light instantly turned to ashes.

Watching her army being continuously wiped out, Aldebaran let out an angry roar, then charged fiercely toward Luo Yexi's direction.

"Boom—"

A violent roar rang out, and Aldebaran's massive body was sent flying backward upon impact, crashing heavily to the ground; a huge blood-filled hole appeared on its body.

"Your opponent is me!" Lingyun's figure landed in front of Aldebaran.

Aldebaran let out a long howl, and the surrounding Gastrea swarmed toward their direction frantically.

"What a truly formidable regenerative ability!" Watching the wounds that were constantly healing, Lingyun was also somewhat amazed.

Aldebaran jerked its neck, and its massive body charged toward Lingyun's direction once again.

"Sorry!" Lingyun opened one hand, and countless flames gathered around him, forming a massive Fireball.

The giant Fireball broke away from Lingyun's palm and struck toward Aldebaran's direction like a meteor.

The Gastrea around Aldebaran frantically gathered at its side, forming a massive defensive wall that blocked the Fireball's path.

"Bang—"

Flames splattered, and the Gastrea blocking the front of the Fireball instantly turned to fly ash under the intense heat. Seeing this, Aldebaran was greatly alarmed, and its massive body instantly displayed a level of agility far exceeding its size, narrowly dodging Lingyun's Fireball.

"Explode!"

Lingyun clenched his hand, and the Fireball that had grazed past Aldebaran instantly detonated, turning into rolling waves of fire that engulfed Aldebaran's body.

Although Aldebaran possessed powerful regenerative properties, it still had no power to fight back under the powerful Fireball released by Lingyun; amidst shrill roars, the Stage Four Aldebaran was thoroughly reduced to ashes.

"Aldebaran has been eliminated, next are these small fries, right!"

Lingyun withdrew his hand, looking at the Gastrea army that had begun to lose control because they had lost Aldebaran's command.

"The Gastrea army seems to have fallen into chaos; could it be that something happened?" Satomi Rentaro looked at the suddenly chaotic Gastrea army and asked with some confusion.

"I guess Big Brother has finished his work over there!" Senju Kayo answered while directing the Cursed Children beside her to provide fire suppression against the Gastrea in the distance.

"Finished? Could it be that they went to snipe Aldebaran?" Satomi Rentaro asked.

"That's right. Since the leader of the Gastrea army has been beheaded, now is the time for a counterattack!" Senju Kayo waved her hand, and the Cursed Children beside her launched a charge toward the Gastrea army.

"Xia Yin, the rest is up to you!" After eliminating Aldebaran, Lingyun returned to the air and said to Yese Xiayin, who had just arrived.

"Mm!" Yese Xiayin nodded vigorously.

Yese Xiayin slowly closed her eyes; behind her, three pairs of golden wings of light slowly unfolded, and a golden halo appeared above her head.

Having activated Angel mode, Yese Xiayin spread her hands, and in the sky above her head, layers upon layers of massive golden Arrays appeared, with specks of golden light drifting out from the Arrays.

"Is this... an Angel?" Seitenshi looked at the big screen in front of her and couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

In fact, when Aldebaran's army turned its target to Lingyun Town, the Tokyo Area had conducted strict monitoring of this battle, even mobilizing extremely precious satellites to monitor this area. They had originally intended to watch Lingyun Town make a fool of itself, but now they were witnessing this unbelievable scene.

"Purification Light!"

The golden light transformed into light arrows, shooting down toward the Gastrea below like a rainstorm.

Purification Light does not only have the ability to purify various negative status effects; its lethality is also top-tier. As long as a target is set as a purification object, the power of the Purification Light can even completely erase it from this world. Right now, Yese Xiayin had set all the Gastrea below as purification objects.

Although the Gastrea possessed tough skin, this defense was no different from paper in front of the light arrows. The light arrows easily pierced into the Gastrea's bodies, thoroughly purifying them from the inside out.

"It's completely over, then!" Lingyun looked at the Gastrea army that had completely vanished and said slowly.

Yese Xiayin, on the side, retracted her Angel mode and panted slightly; with her current strength, releasing Purification Light of such a large range still placed a not-insignificant burden on her.

"Big Brother, I did it!" Yese Xiayin excitedly threw herself into Lingyun's arms.

"Well done, Xia Yin!" Lingyun reached out to hug Yese Xiayin and smiled as he patted her head.
