The runes at the entrance of the passage became brighter and brighter.
Until these runes reached their peak brightness, boundless energy surged into the passage along with them.
"Bang."
It sounded like a muffled fart.
But the effect was extraordinary!
The dry well quickly collapsed, and Feili could even feel that the spatial energy balance within had been destroyed in a short time, leaving only chaotic currents of shattered spatial energy.
This "destroyed" teleportation array, if someone tried to enter, would only have one outcome—being sucked into the river of space, enduring the omnipresent time-space storm, and experiencing endless torment until the end of their life.
"Not bad!"
Seeing this, Feili immediately smiled.
...
Guladar.
Sitting at the top of a building, Wen Yu watched as Ihael, closely followed by the demonic clan expert from the Demon Palace, dove into the dry well.
In that moment, Wen Yu couldn’t help but admire Ihael’s audacity...
Just as Wen Yu was watching the spot where Ihael disappeared, waiting for updates on the battlefield information on his tactical terminal, eighteen violent explosions suddenly echoed throughout the space.
The intense air explosions instantly tore through the sky, causing the ground beneath his feet to tremble. The building under Wen Yu collapsed directly, and he slowly floated up, his senses expanding to their limit.
He immediately noticed that within the Demon Palace’s Negative 996th Layer, eighteen surges of violent spatial turbulence had appeared out of nowhere.
In a flash of thought, Wen Yu instantly understood the source of the air explosions.
Someone from above had destroyed the teleportation passage...
Unlike the demonic clan on the surface, the Demon Palace had marked every teleportation passage's location—while the surface demonic clan still needed to search for passages leading to the upper layers, the Demon Palace did not.
If their strength was sufficient, they could even wait at the teleportation entrance to launch a beautiful counterattack.
However, their strength was indeed insufficient.
Thus, destroying the teleportation passage was a great method to hinder the enemy.
"Abandoning the vehicle to protect the commander, huh? This really is..."
Wen Yu revealed a wry smile; on one hand, he lamented the Demon Palace’s decisiveness, giving up the fourth layer as easily as saying no. On the other hand, he also sighed at the Demon Palace's weakness.
It was like cutting off one’s own finger; who could do such self-harm unless absolutely necessary?
Below, the surface demonic clan members, busy sifting through spoils, looked up at the sky. In their eyes, the eighteen turbulent currents in the sky were like acne on the Negative 996th Layer—prominent and ugly.
However, this ugliness was quickly fading under the space's self-correcting power. In Wen Yu's experience, the chaos brought by these spatial turbulences would probably calm down on its own after about a day.
"So... what should you all do?"
On one hand was the decisiveness of the Demon Palace, and on the other, Wen Yu also wanted to see how the spirit of the demon lord would handle this matter.
With the teleportation passage gone, the barrier between the layers of the Demon Palace... could be described as Close Yet Distant!
Until suddenly, Wen Yu’s tactical terminal on his wrist shook violently, and a command glowing red flashed into view.
"All warriors in the Demon Palace's Negative 996th Layer, please quickly evacuate from coordinates XXX, XXX, XXX!"
"All warriors in the Demon Palace's Negative 996th Layer, please quickly evacuate from coordinates XXX, XXX, XXX!"
"All warriors in the Demon Palace's Negative 996th Layer, please quickly evacuate from coordinates XXX, XXX, XXX!"
The three consecutive emergency commands stunned Wen Yu, and then he casually compared his own coordinates, settling back into the ruins leisurely.
The coordinates mentioned in the commands were far from where Wen Yu currently was.
...
The eighteen currents of spatial turbulence gradually calmed, and the surface demonic clan members, who had just been slightly startled, returned to their work mode.
