Wilderness: I Tame Beasts to Survive

Chapter 439: Chapter 295: Barrier

Just then, the Second Elder’s solemn voice came from the Communication Device:

"The Crimson Mirror Surface is a monitoring array that covers the entire continent. It uses the Queen’s Divine Hall at the continent’s center as its hub and the core territories of the Five Ancestor Families as its branches. The core technology originates from the Alatake Clan. Although it sounds impressive, it isn’t without its weaknesses."

"The area we’re in is under the surveillance of the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly’s territory. If we use that same high-destruction Soul Technique to bombard the core region of the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly Family, we can destroy the Spiritual Array inscribed within it. Once we do, the Crimson Mirror Surface in this area will be completely disabled."

Hearing the Second Elder’s words, Han Ning was secretly thankful he hadn’t refused the Dragon Blood Race’s request. ’Otherwise... without the Second Elder to guide and warn me, I would’ve had to rely on the panel to analyze the entire monitoring array. Who knows how much more Energy that would have consumed.’

At this stage, Energy was a crucial resource that had to be managed meticulously.

"Sir, do you know where the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly Family’s core region is, then?" Leon asked urgently.

"The most central location is a secret known only to each Ancestor, but I can point out the general area on the map. Given the power of that Soul Technique from before... it’s more than enough," the Second Elder replied.

The map on the display screen was networked throughout the entire Grey warship, so even though the Second Elder was in the Spiritual Power Weapon Control Room, he could use a computer there to mark the map in real time via the internal network with the guidance of the technical staff.

Soon, a red circle appeared on the rough map of the Insect Continent, highlighting an area in the southern region.

Seeing this, Leon immediately issued the command, "Prepare the second shot of the Dark Particle Penetrating Cannon!"

"The target area is within our effective range. We can fire at any time!"

"The relevant Spiritual Array is overheating! We need to let the rampant Spiritual Energy settle. Thirty seconds to cooldown!"

The Piercing Cannon, at maximum power, needed to recharge after each shot and couldn’t be fired in rapid succession. This was, after all, a supreme Soul Technique capable of shattering a continent. It required multiple Monarch Level Soul Beasts to continuously channel high-pressure, Divine Will Level Spiritual Energy, and the Spiritual Array bearing that intense power needed time to cool.

The eyes of the Crimson Mirror Surface were unsettling and even contained a degree of Spiritual Attack, but to the high-speed Grey, they posed no real obstacle beyond surveillance and tracking.

Shrouded in thin mist and emitting a faint blue glow, the flying Giant Beast continued onward, accelerating unimpeded toward the eastern side of the Insect Continent.

Perhaps the immense power of the first Piercing Cannon blast had stunned the Five Great Ancestors in the Grudge Abyss.

Even the people aboard Grey’s back were astonished by the destructive force the Piercing Cannon had unleashed.

After all, previous tests of the Spiritual Power Weapon had been restricted to low-energy modes. This was the first time they had ever gathered the Spiritual Energy of multiple Monarch Level—and even Upper Monarch—Soul Beasts to fire such a high-yield blast from the Piercing Cannon.

The terrifying explosive force was still spreading. By now, nearly a quarter of the continent had been affected. Violent tremors wracked the surface, and the link between the land and the Abyss seemed to have been severed. The solid ground disintegrated into the Dark Fluctuation, which seemed capable of pulverizing anything in its path.

With the surface gone, all that remained was the boundless Grudge Abyss.

’This level of destructive power is only a bit weaker than Akatos’s self-destruction, and it’s sustainable on top of that. As expected of the panel, it only produces the best.’ Han Ning mused as he watched the monitor, where the surface below was being consumed by Darkness.

Even after thirty seconds had passed, Grey continued its flight completely unhindered.

Ahead, a range of steep mountains gradually came into view, wreathed in storms and bristling with sharp cliffs that towered into the clouds.

Below, the shockwave from the Piercing Cannon quickly reached them, causing large sections of the distant cliffs to crumble. Innumerable butterfly and moth-type insect Soul Beasts burst from the cliffside forests, swarming into the hazy sky to form a dark, roiling cloud.

Many of the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly Insect Masters anxiously commanded their Soul Beasts to restrain the panicked swarms, their faces filled with confusion at the events unfolding below.

"We’ve reached the Gyre Sky Domain. We have now entered the territory of the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly Family."

"Ready the Dark Particle Penetrating Cannon! Fire at the predetermined coordinates!"

"Five-second countdown..."

"Five, four, three, two, one... Fire!"

With the experience from the first shot, the coordination between departments grew even more proficient.

Five seconds later, a jet-black pillar of light radiating an aura of destruction shot out from a thin layer of gray mist. Its immense power kicked up a violent storm, generating a shuttle-shaped Subspace rift that swallowed innumerable Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly Insect Masters and their Soul Beasts.

In that instant, every living being on the southern end of the Insect Continent could feel the earth tremble violently. A colossal pillar of light shot down from high above, like an apocalyptic ray sent by a Demon God, and slammed down upon the land.

BOOM!!

A dull, dark luster dyed the already gray sky a despairing, absolute black.

The scarlet eyes scattered in every direction began to warp and twist before evaporating into thin air, just like steam!

"Success! We’ve destroyed the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly’s territory! Let’s get out of here while they’re in disarray!" the Second Elder’s voice was jubilant. The destruction of the Sky-Splitting Instant Butterfly Family’s domain clearly brought him immense satisfaction.

With the Crimson Mirror Surface gone, their path forward was clear. Nearly half the Insect Continent was now engulfed in the unstoppable Dark Fluctuation.
