Chapter 24: Eradicating the Commanders

The passage to the plane battlefield was not long; in a moment the three of them walked in, and in an instant they entered another plane.

The massive gravity immediately pressed down on Shawn; this gravity was far stronger than that of the Netherworld, and after his divine consciousness expanded, he also found it was ten times smaller than the Netherworld's, roughly only ten thousand meters.

"The gravity on the plane battlefield far exceeds that of the Netherworld, Shawn, get used to it first," Ao De Biao reminded, "Also, your divine consciousness is only about a hundred meters, basically not very useful; your eyes are still better."

"Hmm, thanks for the reminder," Shawn nodded.

Even this bizarre plane battlefield does not affect a god‑level master's eyes; under flat conditions, a god‑level can easily see scenes ten thousand li away;

In this sense, even in the Netherworld the eyes are still largely useful, or for sensing energy, a slight distant fluctuation can be perceived.

The army had just entered the battlefield, and the commanders' tents were quickly set up; on the Netherworld side, about sixty‑plus commanders had arrived, and perhaps more will come in the next thousand years.

"Let's go, Shawn," Ao De Biao said excitedly, "Let the specialized commanders handle the battlefield preparations; we should go hunt the commanders."

"Alright." Shawn agreed, "Staying here is pointless."

The three walked toward the outskirts of the camp; the barren Gobi stretched across the entire plane battlefield, with almost no vegetation. After walking for a long while, Shawn said, "There's literally no one here; shall we go to the other side of the Star River?"

His divine consciousness spanned ten thousand meters, a hundred times stronger than that of a normal ascended god, yet this radius is still insufficient compared to the size of the plane battlefield.

"It's only been two months, Shawn, don't be impatient," Ao De Biao laughed, "The plane battlefield has just begun; even if many are ready, they won't act immediately.

I brought you out also to get to know the surrounding terrain, to see where one can hide; many commanders like to stay hidden, and those are our targets—hard to spot, those without weaknesses or who form teams, almost impossible to kill."

"That's true," Shawn asked, "Is the terrain of this plane battlefield different each time we enter?"

He also knows how hard it is to kill a peak commander, like the earlier Ta Shan; unless one's soul seed is overwhelmingly powerful, one's soul attack can at most hurt him, and a single strike to kill is difficult, and others will flee.

Ta Shan nodded, "Right, it's different. The Netherworld also has earthquakes, but most areas are maintained by god‑level masters, especially those who cultivate the Earth Law,

but if it's a wasteland, even over countless billions of years it will change, and since the plane battlefield has been empty for ten trillion years, its terrain will naturally shift."

"So that's how it is." Shawn was about to continue the idle chat when he suddenly stopped and looked to the left‑front.

"What's wrong?" Ao De Biao also sensed Shawn's unusual expression.

"There's a slight fluctuation of soul aura over there," Shawn pointed, "I'm very sensitive to soul aura, it should be correct, behind that rock."

In fact his divine consciousness sensed a person there, a triple‑system soul mutation; when everyone is using Primordial God Power, it has little effect;

But in a normal state, he can have endless divine consciousness that others cannot detect; that's his greatest advantage, and even others who have abundant Primordial God Power cannot match it, because the energy fluctuations of Primordial God Power can reach tens of thousands of li, only attracting strong foes.

Of course, compared with Great Perfection, it's still far behind.

"Alright, let's split into three directions and surround it; those who hide are usually not peak masters, and once surrounded we have a chance to kill them," Ao De Biao said excitedly.

The three immediately split up, surrounding the back of the rock from three directions at 120°, Shawn had already locked onto the person with his divine consciousness; as he approached, seeing the other two had taken position, he waved a hand as a signal, then instantly released a massive gray mist.

The man hiding in the cave was in a closed cultivation, controlling a distant death‑god puppet, when he suddenly felt a slight numbness in his soul and his eyes snapped open.

"Soul poison gas?"

The man's face changed dramatically; realizing he had been discovered, he instantly radiated dazzling white light, charging toward the opposite side of the cave entrance;

A cunning rabbit has three burrows; he had already prepared an escape route here.

"Ha ha, Liwas, don't run, stay here today?" Ao De Biao's voice was full of laughter.

"Ao De Biao?" Liwas's face changed upon hearing the voice, but he gave no reply; his current mission was to flee, and his speed was extremely fast—ordinary commanders could not catch him.

"Retreat."

A massive fireball scorched the rock, directly encircling Liwas, and Torres's war‑blade primary artifact swung straight toward Liwas's head.

Liwas naturally would not sit idle; he lifted his light sword, striking the fire‑type primary artifact.

The tremendous force hurled him outward, and immediately behind him appeared a gray‑black spear.

Liwas let out a roar, spewing a flood of light threads from his body that wrapped the black primary artifact; although they were quickly broken, they deviated slightly, and the spear pierced Liwas's left arm, yet also allowed him to break out of the encirclement.

"I've escaped," Liwas exclaimed joyfully, but suddenly several soul attacks shot toward him.

"Soul attack? I'm not afraid," Liwas replied, firing several white beams—Law of Light, also adept at soul attacks.

In mid‑air, gray and white soul forces collided, instantly annihilating the white soul force.

"This can't be?" Liwas nearly shouted in shock, but without time to react, he immediately activated a drop of Light Primordial God Power within his body.

"Ha ha, Liwas, everyone uses Primordial God Power, what's the difference?"

The two who arrived behind also wielded Primordial God Power, one black and one red, attacking Liwas; Shawn likewise used Primordial God Power, unleashing his strongest soul attack once more.

"Whoosh~" The gray soul attack surged like a bamboo breaking, striking Liwas; his body staggered, but he quickly resumed fighting Ao De Biao and Torres.

"Trying to kill other commanders with soul attacks is truly difficult," Shawn thought with a sigh.

Without Primordial God Power, his own advantage is huge, but since everyone has it, only a mysterious gap remains; although he is slightly stronger, he still cannot kill the opponent.

Before Beilute appeared, many avoided the spiritual‑defense primary artifact for this reason.

"Ha ha, you can't run away." Ao De Biao's attack was terrifying; the plane battlefield's space was torn open, combined with a faster‑moving Torres in support.

"Puff~" The spear smashed the skull, revealing the deity's form inside.

A commander of the Light Divine Realm fell in that way.
