Chapter 14188 "Distinguished Guest"

Ji Mingkong bowed slightly, his posture elegant and respectful, like a soft cloud slowly drifting down.

Her eyes held a hint of caution and certainty as she softly said, "Absolutely foolproof."

For this project, we meticulously planned and repeatedly rehearsed, taking every aspect very seriously.

However... it remains to be seen what level of person the Heavenly Abyss Sanctuary will send this time.

They are known for their cunning and unpredictable nature, which could be a variable in this operation.

Ling Xiao lightly tapped the cold jade railing with his fingertips, the crisp sound echoing in the silent air.

His voice was calm and still, like a deep lake without a ripple: "We must win the first battle."

This battle is not only to demonstrate the strength of my Overlord Empire, but also to give the Tianyuan Dynasty a warning and let them know that we are not to be trifled with.

If we lose the first battle, the subsequent situation will become extremely passive, so we must go all out to ensure that we are absolutely certain of victory.

"Of course," Ji Mingkong replied, her eyes gleaming with determination. "If we win this battle, the prestige of our Overlord Empire will be greatly enhanced, and the world will know of our strength."

The surrounding forces will also have greater respect for us and dare not provoke us easily.

However, this victory is like a thunderclap, which may completely awaken the sleeping behemoth of the Realm of Annihilation.

The Realm of Annihilation harbors countless powerful beings. If we are alerted and attract their full attention, we will face even greater pressure and challenges.

Ling Xiao slowly nodded, his eyes deep and far-reaching, as if he could already see all the possibilities of the future: "Understood."

No matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, we must not back down.

Now that the Overlord Empire has come this far, there is no turning back.

Ji Mingkong performed an impeccable bow, turned gracefully, and prepared to leave.

Her steps were light and graceful, like a butterfly in flight.

“They’re getting closer.” Ling Xiao’s gaze returned to the distance, where the void seemed to hold endless secrets.

His voice was deep and powerful, as if carrying an inexplicable pressure.

Just as Ji Mingkong was about to speak, wanting to ask some questions, the two of them simultaneously tensed up, as if they sensed some dangerous aura.

Their gazes shot like lightning into the distant void beyond the observatory, their eyes so sharp they seemed to pierce through any obstacle.

Ling Xiao's pupils contracted slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure: "They came... quickly."

It seems the Heavenly Abyss Sanctuary is taking this operation very seriously and is eager to prove themselves against us.

Immediately, a sharp smile appeared on his lips, exuding confidence and domineering aura: "Let me go and meet these 'distinguished guests' who have come from afar!"
Let's see just how capable they are, daring to invade the territory of my Overlord Empire.

Before he finished speaking, he moved as if a gust of wind had swept by, and his figure had already transformed into a sword light that tore through space.

The sword light was dazzling, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, suddenly disappearing from its spot, leaving only a faint trace, as if declaring its determination and courage to the world.

On the star-gazing platform, Ji Mingkong stood gracefully, like a delicate orchid blooming under the night sky.

She stood still for a moment, a gentle breeze blowing, stirring the strands of hair at her temples.

She lowered her head slightly, parted her lips slightly, and whispered like the wind. Though her voice was soft, it carried an undeniable firmness: "The curtain has risen."

This great battle, which would determine the fate of the Overlord Empire, had thus begun, and its future was fraught with uncertainty and unpredictability.

Deep within the platform, a mysterious world seems to be hidden.

A cold, emotionless voice drifted over, as if echoing from a frigid abyss: "As you command."

The voice was devoid of any emotional fluctuation, yet it conveyed an absolute obedience and determination to carry out orders, as if whatever awaited them ahead, they would complete it without hesitation.

……

Ling Xiao moved with lightning speed, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared at the border between the Batian Empire and the Tianyuan Dynasty.

This area resembles a ruin ravaged by the demons of war.

Countless shattered mountain fragments floated haphazardly, some peaks were only half left, with jagged breaks, as if they had been slashed by a huge blade.

The remains of the ancient warships were scattered everywhere, their hulls covered with countless cracks, as if they had been bombarded by countless cannonballs.

These wrecks are scars left by war, silently telling the story of past tragedy and devastation.

Before him floated a strange mountain, which was neither gold nor stone, with a peculiar texture and a surface covered with mysterious patterns, as if they were ancient marks etched by time.

There was a huge black vortex on the mountain, as deep as a black hole in the universe, as if it could swallow everything around it.

Dark red light flowed within the vortex, like burning blood, exuding an eerie and terrifying aura. This was the spatial node connecting to the Realm of Annihilation, a passage to another mysterious and dangerous world.

Near the spatial node, Empress Su Lingyin of the Xuantian Kingdom also quietly arrived.

She wore a simple white dress, like a white lotus blooming in the snow, pure and aloof.

She stood there indifferently, her eyes calm as still water, watching Ling Xiao's every move.

Her posture was upright and elegant, and she exuded a powerful aura that made people hesitant to approach her.

Su Lingyin stared silently at Ling Xiao, her eyes devoid of joy or sorrow, as if Ling Xiao's life or death had little to do with her.

However, a sense of curiosity stirred within her; she wanted to see how Ling Xiao would escape this time.

After all, Ling Xiao had experienced countless life-or-death crises along the way, and each time he had managed to turn danger into safety, which filled her with curiosity and doubt about Ling Xiao's methods.

Ling Xiao ignored this powerful senior. His gaze was firm and focused, as if the whole world had been reduced to the terrifying energy fluctuations in the distance.

His entire focus was on the unknown danger. He knew that this enemy was no ordinary foe and that he had to go all out.

This time, the people did not come from the spatial node, but from the Tianyuan Dynasty.

This means that the Tianyuan Dynasty meticulously planned this operation and dispatched a powerful force to deliver a heavy blow to the Batian Empire.

The next moment, a blinding light suddenly shone not far away, the light bursting forth like the sun, instantly illuminating the entire dark void.

Five figures, radiating an overwhelming and unstoppable pressure, stepped out with fierce determination!

They were tall and imposing, exuding a powerful aura, like five majestic mountain peaks, inspiring awe and fear.
