"Prepare!!!"
Li Zheng also noticed the forming vortex in the distance, imdiately pulling back his gaze and raising his hand sharply.
And as he raised his hand.
The rag-clad Security Army snapped out of their daze, taking a deep breath, and all lifted their Celestial Punishnt Sniper Rifles, aiming at the source of the commotion.
The awakened soldiers were not all from Li Zheng’s unit; many weren’t even Empowerers, just trained ordinary people.
Though trained and aware of the power of the Celestial Punishnt Weapons... asking them to remain calm and absolutely confident in such an unfathomable scene was unrealistic.
Not to ntion them.
Even Li Zheng couldn’t manage it.
Especially after Chen Lusi said the enemy claid to be a goddess.
In that instant, seeing the surroundings and hearing Chen Lusi’s words made them consider their final words.
Yet Chen Lusi’s subsequent words reignited their confidence.
This confidence seed inexplicable, yet traceable.
...Mostly gained through comparison.
"Originally in Jinling, I just wanted to test the power of the Celestial Punishnt Weapon, but I didn’t expect to be pulled into the Anomaly Realm."
On the other side.
Li Zheng weighed the Celestial Punishnt Sniper Rifle in his hand and murmured to himself, "However, though it’s a deviation, this counts as the first unveiling of the Celestial Punishnt Weapon; a self-claid goddess?"
After speaking.
He glanced at Chen Lusi’s back, then scanned the surroundings, suddenly smiled, and similarly readied the Celestial Punishnt Pistol, aiming at the source of the commotion.
He wanted to see.
If a so-called goddess could withstand the Celestial Punishnt Weapons.
A weapon forged by soone capable of overturning the entire Anomaly Realm... couldn’t possibly fall short of a self-claid goddess?
Chen Lusi was unaware of the thoughts of the Security Army.
At the mont, he focused on the gradually expanding vortex in the distance.
Truthfully speaking, the enemy was indeed formidable.
Let alone everything else.
That colossal Dharma Aspect... Chen Lusi didn’t know what it was, nor could he make sense of the enemy’s random shouting.
Although he felt unaffected.
But those Security Army mbers... might not be so fortunate.
Ti was not on his side, and he was still unsure of what he could achieve in this Anomaly Realm; another inversion wasn’t guaranteed.
So if the enemy couldn’t be dealt with here, it would beco problematic.
Thinking this.
Chen Lusi glanced back over his shoulder.
No shadow.
But he knew.
If he wanted to mimic Authority, it was still feasible.
Mimicking Authority...
At this point, mimicking a highly destructive Authority was pointless, but so Authorities... their first use could be unexpected.
With this in mind.
Chen Lusi slowly closed his eyes.
As soon as his eyes shut, a shadow as tall as him slowly rose behind him, beginning to adjust its posture constantly.
Li Zheng’s peripheral vision caught a glimpse, slightly stunned.
Simultaneously.
The distant vortex expanded larger, moving more violently.
Before long.
The entire ’sea surface’ was trembling.
...As if boiling.
Li Zheng sensed the water’s disturbance, imdiately pulling his gaze from Chen Lusi, focusing intently, and clearly seeing sothing massive moving rapidly beneath the turbulent waters.
Li Zheng noticed, eyes widening abruptly, then shouted loudly: "On guard! Prepare to engage!"
As soon as the words left his mouth.
Whoosh—
A column of water ascended skyward!
Two shadows burst from the water!
...
If he was about to go insane monts ago,
Now, the horse-faced man was truly driven mad.
Irritated to madness.
The situation he imagined was nothing like this.
This operation was supposed to be simple for him.
The Celestial Strategy Mansion had developed to a point where there were no longer any Empowerers from the National Sacrificial System.
This was evident from Ji Xin’s ability to sit atop Mount Tai.
Kunlun, even less relevant.
Their leader, Luo Shan, strictly speaking, had an Authority that didn’t align with Kunlun at all, completely opposite, even.
So concerning the awakening of the ’landscape’ in Jinling, the horse-faced man felt certain nobody could sense it earlier or understand it better than he could.
As a highly esteed Empowerer of the past’s most revered National Sacrificial System... he didn’t even need his ’Self’ to do anything, just to seize the ti gap and accomplish the task while Celestial Strategy Mansion remained unaware.
After all, with Xia Yue absent, Celestial Strategy Mansion and Kunlun together didn’t have a single Empowerer of the National Sacrificial System. Considering their usual behavior, it was impossible for them to imdiately discover that this ’landscape’ was awakening.
And initially.
Everything indeed unfolded as he expected.
The Celestial Strategy Mansion, like headless flies, could only address various anomalies caused by the awakening, without suspecting the ’awakening of the past dynasty’s witness’ direction.
Kunlun was similarly baffled temporarily.
Until he was ready to enter the Anomaly Realm, a small incident occurred.
That incident was—Chen Lusi leading the Security Army into Jinling.
And he didn’t know what their purpose was.
This was the first mishap, making the horse-faced man disgruntled, though he didn’t consider it significant.
Since it wouldn’t impact his actions within the Anomaly Realm.
At least before he entered... that’s what he thought.
Then...
Soone woke up in the Illusion Dream, the landscape remained hidden, went mad as soon as it appeared, and the Celestial Strategy Mansion montarily cut off Jinling’s connection to the Yellow Springs Mainstream in a fit of madness.
