Li Yao gazed into the distance, only to see that in the middle of the clouds that were rolling like angry waves, an enormous light screen was gradually rising. It rapidly expanded in all directions, and soon, it spread out to a length of several dozen kilometers!
What appeared on the light screen was the setting sun as red as blood, the surging wind and thunder, and thousands of crystal battleships intertwined together, colliding, tearing, devouring, and exploding into each other!
"It's the 'Great Blood Sea War' from five hundred years ago!" Li Yao's spirit was shaken.
The scene of the battle on the light screen quickly advanced to the tragic scene of the Distant Expanse fiercely crashing into the Heaven's Wild Ship.
The Heaven's Wild Ship was the flagship of the Far East Demon Kingdom. It was said that it was formed from the corpses and skeletons of over a hundred enormous demon beasts under the sea. After several decades of demonic catalysis, it was condensed into an incomparably enormous skeletal battleship.
Its length exceeded twenty thousand meters, and its weight reached 190 million tons. It was simply an ugly mountain suspended in midair, giving people a terrifying impression of being indestructible.
In front of it, even the Distant Expanse was like an insignificant dinghy. A light bump would cause it to shatter into pieces.
However, in the face of such a powerful enemy, the Distant Expanse was still duty-bound to accelerate, accelerate, and accelerate unceasingly, charging with all its strength towards the sturdiest front deck of the Heaven's Wild Ship.
The Heaven's Wild Ship had clearly discovered the intentions of the Distant Expanse. The countless acid sacs, demonic light cannons, and flame poison glands on its body pulsed and sucked. Hundreds of streams of acid, poison, and demonic light violently bombarded the Distant Expanse's spiritual energy shield.
The Distant Expanse was bombarded to the point of collapse. Its spiritual energy shield flickered, as if it would collapse at any moment.
Upon seeing this, many human battleships in the surroundings rushed forward one after another without regard for anything else, blocking the attacks of the Heaven's Wild Ship.
These crystal battleships had relatively small tonnage, and their defenses were very weak. Most of them were completely corroded after taking a few acid and poison attacks, falling into the sea. All of the soldiers on board died.
However, even more human battleships seemed to have gone mad. They fearlessly filled in the gaps, forming the sturdiest shield for the Distant Expanse!
Finally —
There were only five hundred meters between the Distant Expanse and the Heaven's Wild Ship. For two such enormous battleships, this distance was just a hair's breadth away!
The Distant Expanse completely abandoned its spiritual energy shield and channeled all of its spiritual energy into the driving array. The tail of the battleship burst forth with a fierce red light, and its speed suddenly increased by another level, breaking into the Wild Heaven Ship's demonic energy shield!
"Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss …"
Like a meteor breaking through the atmosphere, the Distant Expanse and the demonic energy shield violently rubbed against each other, producing a large amount of light and heat. The crimson light enveloped the Distant Expanse, turning it into … a shining spear!
It was too late!
No matter how the Heavenly Wild Ship dodged, it was too late!
No matter how much firepower the Wild Heaven Ship poured onto the Distant Expanse, it was too late!
On the bridge of the Heavenly Wild Ship, no matter how much the East Demon Emperor roared, no matter how much he roared, no matter how much he cursed these crazy humans, it was all too late!
The dazzling spear pierced into the front deck of the Wild Heaven's Ship with a momentum that seemed capable of piercing through the heavens. Even after two-thirds of the ship had pierced into the enemy's body, the Distant Expanse's array formation was still operating at an overload. Dazzling balls of light burst out like fireworks, before finally completely submerging into the enemy's ship!
What followed was a series of earth-shattering explosions.
The awe-inspiring and insufferably arrogant Wild Heaven's Ship was like a shell that had lost its soul. Smoke billowed out everywhere, and fire leaked out everywhere. The skeletons that made up the ship's body collapsed one after another, disintegrating, and falling into the sea one by one.
… …
The battle came to an end. The light screen gradually dissipated, and the blood-soaked sea once again turned into a blue sky and white clouds.
At the end of the light screen, the setting sun and blood gradually condensed, transforming into three crimson lines of text:
"In this battle, the 13,250 soldiers on the Distant Expanse, including 300 Refinement Stage cultivators, 15 Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, and the Core Formation Stage cultivator who was the captain, have all perished. Not a single one of them survived!"
"A hundred and ten thousand soldiers and 4,352 Cultivators perished together with them!"
"What they created was a powerful nation belonging to humanity — the Xing Yao Federation!"
With this as the background, an earth-shattering red flag fluttered in the wind, slowly unfurling. What appeared in the center of the red flag was an enormous golden dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. The enormous dragon was entrenched on top of a translucent crystal bead, and within the bead were nine dazzling five-pointed stars.
The national flag of the Xing Yao Federation — the Rising Dragon of the Nine Stars Flag!
The nine stars represented the nine cultivation sects that first created the Federation. The enormous dragon represented the human civilization's grand ambition to shake the galaxy and conquer the universe!
Seeing these three lines, seeing the blood-red national flag, all the youngsters felt their hearts surge with emotion. Their blood boiled, and it was unknown who was the first to shout loudly:
"Long live the Federation!"
"Long live the cultivators!"
"The glorious human race contends for hegemony in the sea of stars! Long live the human civilization! "
"We, humans, are the strongest fighting race in the endless sea of stars! We will forever be the masters of this universe, and there is no existence that can stop us! Whoever dares to stop us, we will fight them to the end! "
"Long live the Federation! Long live the cultivators! Long live the human civilization! "
Not long after, all the youngsters on the eight airships shouted excitedly together.
Sensing the purest courage and willpower of the youngsters, the Distant Expanse, which had always been as silent as a tombstone, suddenly trembled lightly. A faint golden radiance surged around its body, transforming into a golden spear. It fiercely pierced down towards Devil Flood Dragon Island!
"Swoosh!"
The golden spear just happened to pierce the "head" of Devil Flood Dragon Island. The entire black ocean emitted a faint tremor, as if a fragmented scream was transmitted from the depths of the ocean. The whirlpools that covered the surroundings of Devil Flood Dragon Island also appeared to freeze for a moment.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Li Yao felt that the air had suddenly become fresh and clean.
"Born as a dragon, dead as a tombstone. Forever guarding the nation's gates, forever suppressing the rivers and mountains!" These sixteen words appeared in Li Yao's mind.
"It seems that the legends are true. This eternal flagship of the Federation, the Distant Expanse, has truly been refined into a gigantic artifact. It will forever stand towering on the shores of the East Sea, suppressing the destiny of the Far East Demon Kingdom!"
Looking at the increasingly large Distant Expanse before his eyes, Li Yao suddenly felt an indescribable emotion from the bottom of his heart.
"Originally, I didn't know what a Master Artificer should be like. But now I know. Only by being able to refine a national artifact on the level of the Distant Expanse can one be called a true Master Artificer!"
"If I can personally refine such an artifact … even if I can only participate in it and do some simple maintenance work, it would still be the supreme glory of a Master Artificer!"
