Chapter 1321: Is This All the Universe Overlord Has Got?

Not only were the prisoners of Juefeng stunned, but even the people of Wen Dao Sect didn't expect the fleet of the Zhu Tian Civilization to attack right at their doorstep.

Therefore, their first reaction was not anger or any intense emotion, but rather bewilderment.

"Isn't that the Zhu Tian Civilization fleet mentioned in the newspaper? How did they end up here?"

"Did I suffer qi deviation from my cultivation? Why do they seem not very strong?" The disciples of Wen Dao Sect chattered among themselves, as this did not match what they had heard.

"It must be a feint."

"Report to the commander: the neutralizing field failed against the maximum-power energy beam."

For some reason, the commander felt uneasy, inexplicably irritable, and found his subordinates' questions utterly foolish, so he issued a cold order.

"I'm not blind—if one shot isn't enough, then ten; if ten aren't enough, then a hundred; if that still doesn't work, I'll mobilize the entire fleet's beams. I don't believe two hundred energy beams can't blast this place open!"

No one could stop him from seizing spirit stones to earn merit!

"Yes!" The subordinate snapped to attention with a military salute, then hurriedly contacted every captain, ordering them to warm up the energy cannons.

Boom—

Ten maximum-power energy beams fired simultaneously, striking again the protective grand formation of Wen Dao Sect, sending up ten ripples—but that was all.

"With this level of strength, they dare to attack us?" The elders of Wen Dao Sect were astonished, and even the Grand Elder leapt from his coffin, preparing to act.

Are they really looking down on Wen Dao Sect this much?

"Don't move—let me handle it!"

"What gives you the right? As the elder brother, you should still defer to your younger brothers."

"The enemy is probably hiding their true strength; if you go, you'll risk your lives. I am the sect leader, and I vow to die protecting the sect!"

The elders and the silent Daoist vied with each other, eager to seize this opportunity.

Just as the commander thought this attack would also be ineffective, he saw the river Jianghe in the remote mountains flow backward, forming a rain curtain that enveloped the fleet.

"What's going on?"

The fleet fell into chaos—how could this river have become like a spirit, even flying into the sky? What principle is this? They had never encountered such a situation when conquering other civilizations.

"Quick, look outside—there's someone!"

"Looks like he's holding weapons—are those two axes?"

The river spirit wielded a golden axe and a silver axe, veins bulging, aura fierce as it flew into the sky to surround the entire fleet.

Wen Dao Sect had not been unprepared for attack—before, the Wan Fa Dao Jun of the Great Yu had sneak-attacked them, but such a weak assault was something he had never seen before.

The sect's grand protective formation was part of the river spirit's body; the fleet's attack was like urinating on him—truly an insult to this guardian of Wen Dao Sect!

"A flying native? Seems he's like that Lu Yang—among natives, he's relatively strong."

"Ha, coming over with two axes, thinking such primitive weapons can deal with us?"

The Zhu Tian soldiers chuckled, recalling when they invaded a primitive planet, and natives in animal skins threw spears at their warships.

"Fire the cannons—let him see, before he dies, what a civilizational gap looks like."

The fleet turned its cannons, energy beams gathering, aiming at the river spirit with a single shot.

Swish—

Jin Guang flashed, the energy beam split in half, and every warship along that straight line was cleaved in two, cross-sections smooth and flat, wreckage and Zhu Tian soldiers falling like dumplings.

The fleet's audio fell silent.

Their warships, even when facing star-annihilation-level weapons, only suffered a breach and could still self-repair—but against a simple axe, they had no power to resist.

The commander belatedly realized and shouted:

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

But when they tried to pilot their warships to escape, they found the upstream-flowing river had completely surrounded them, like sinking into a mire— the more they struggled, the harder it became to move.

They were horrified—what kind of technique is this?

"You came here and still want to leave!" The river spirit brandished his two axes and charged at the fleet, hacking them apart like chopping vegetables, leaving them in utter disarray.

The Dean watched this scene, his mouth hanging open for a long time.

He had seen the Zhu Tian Civilization's fleet before—twelve legions of the Star Alliance were utterly powerless against it.

But upon arriving in the Cultivation Realm, the situation reversed completely—just the river spirit alone crushed these two hundred warships!

The Ether Extender displayed an envious emoji; as fellow innate beings, could it also become this powerful?

"Call the Second Fleet—request reinforcements; the strength of the Cultivation Realm natives far exceeds expectations!"

"Call the Third Fleet—request reinforcements; the strength of the Cultivation Realm natives far exceeds expectations..." The commander strained his voice calling for allied aid, not caring about this merit—he just wanted to stay alive, more than anything.

However, the other end of the communicator had no response—only panic-filled voices, screams, and even beastly roars came through.

The commander of the First Fleet was dazed—what was happening on the other side?

Seeing the river spirit display mighty power, the Wen Dao Sect disciples excitedly dialed their quantum communicators, video-calling friends from Tiannanhaibei, letting them witness Wen Dao Sect's formidable presence.

Someone contacted the Dragon Prince of the Dragon Palace, boasting proudly: "See? The so-called Universe Overlord is nothing but a chicken and dog before our Wen Dao Sect."

"Eh, I was just about to call you, but the Zhu Tian Civilization's fleet also came to our East Sea Dragon Palace."

"How did they also end up at your place?" The Wen Dao Sect disciples were puzzled—if the Zhu Tian Civilization's warships are so weak, why split their forces into two routes?

……

"Report, Commander—large quantities of top-grade spirit stones detected beneath this waters!" A soldier reported to the commander of the Second Fleet.

"A seabed mineral vein? Exactly where?"

"Report, in the seabed surface layer."

"Throw a few shock bombs to trigger an underwater earthquake and shake the spirit stone vein loose."

Several high-yield shock bombs descended into the sea, continuously sinking, the surrounding light shifting—bright to dark, then dark to bright—finally striking the roof of the Dragon Palace.

Not a single word, not a single line, not a single beam, not a single inner, not a single existence, not a single one looked!

Today is the Old Dragon King's birthday—not a grand celebration, just a simple observance, as the dragon sons and grandsons successively presented gifts.

The descendants filled the hall, all very filial, and seeing this, the old Dragon Emperor laughed heartily.

"Come, let us wish Father Emperor a long life!"

The dragon sons and grandsons raised their cups, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

Bang.

Accompanied by a dull thud, the ground trembled slightly, and even the wine in the cups spilled a few drops.

The old Dragon Emperor frowned, somewhat displeased; an unexpected situation at a birthday banquet was certainly no good omen.

He seemed to sense something, raised his head, and felt the aura of the Candle Heaven Civilization fleet.

Transforming into a dragon and soaring into the sky.

Seeing this, the dragon sons and grandsons followed behind the old Dragon Emperor.

The sea area surged, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the sea clans sensed the dragon aura and fled far away.

The dragons rose into the sky, and all living beings retreated.

"Report, detected intense fluctuations in the sea below; likely caused by the shockwave bomb triggering an undersea earthquake."

"Send two warships down to investigate."

A mere undersea earthquake cannot affect their proud warships.

However, as soon as the two warships entered the sea, they saw a massive whirlpool on the surface, raging winds, and sudden drastic changes in wind and clouds.

A ferocious ten-thousand-zhang ancient dragon gripped the two warships and leapt out of the sea, stirring up thousand-zhang waves.

Following closely were over a thousand-zhang of dragons emerging from the sea, encircling the fleet completely, dragon roars shaking heaven and earth, echoing through the clouds.

The technological development direction of the Candle Heaven Civilization leans toward biochemistry; the fleets they produce are actually quite solid masses of flesh.

The old Dragon Emperor gripped those two warships as if holding two meat worms.

"Dragon... dragon!" The Candle Heaven soldiers stammered in fear, mythical creatures appearing so abruptly before their eyes.

Dragon威 suppresses the vast majority of living beings; the Candle Heaven soldiers are no exception—they felt the terrifying aura of the dragon horde, every cell trembling.

The old Dragon Emperor gripped the largest warship, which was the command ship of the Second Fleet.

In the old Dragon Emperor's dragon eyes flickered a hint of doubt—is this the warship of the cosmic overlord? It doesn't feel very strong.

The commander stood frozen in place, holding his breath, trying not to look out at the enormous dragon eyes, attempting to pretend the command ship had no one aboard to avoid this calamity.

Crushed by Dragon威, cold sweat poured from him, every part of his body screamed warnings, urging him to flee immediately.

Yet his instinct told him: facing a true dragon, once you flee, there is no return but death.

Suddenly, the communicator crackled: "Calling Second Fleet, requesting support—the strength of the Cultivation Realm natives far exceeds expectations!"

At this moment, the commander even had the thought of killing someone.

The old Dragon Emperor roared, the command ship trembled, and the commander could even smell the bloody wind and rain from the old Dragon Emperor's mouth.

He was so frightened his eyes rolled back, and he fainted dead away.
