In front of the gray fortress:
The Stemborer army, numbering in the hundreds of millions, had gathered into a massive pitch-black ball that looked like an insect nest.
Kaboom!
This pitch-black ball was extremely dense and unimaginably heavy, and it exuded a heaven-shaking energy that began to batter at the Time energy produced by the mysterious fragment.
Despite the obstruction of the vast Time energy, the insect ball was able to forcefully press forward.
On the other end of the ruined fortress:
Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng used their own techniques to witness this sight, and their minds couldn't help but be stunned.
Any single insect in this insect army was like an ant in front of an Ancient God that could be destroyed with the flick of a finger.
Yet this strange array of hundreds of millions of Stemborers was able to unleash such dreadful power.
This power had probably already surpassed that of an ordinary half-step God Lord.
"It's actually able to push forward against Level Nine Intent Time energy …."
Zhao Feng couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
If it were him or Xin Wuheng, they would probably be unable to resist the Time energy produced by the fragment.
"What's the situation?"
Ancient God Sundermount and Ancient God Rosy Cloud were somewhat unable to restrain themselves.
There were enormous amounts of natural resources in front of this ruined fortress, with the majority being Time resources. If all these resources were taken out, they would be able to raise many elite Giant God Race experts.
But …
The two of them were limited by their cultivation levels and did not dare to recklessly use their Divine Senses for fear that the Stemborer Queen would notice.
Even Xin Wuheng, who had reached peak Rank Nine and was a God Lord in his last life with a powerful Soul Intent, had to be very careful when observing.
"What does Brother Zhao think?"
Xin Wuheng asked for Zhao Feng's opinion.
The two of them were able to observe the battle between the mysterious fragment and the Stemborer army.
But Xin Wuheng had a feeling that Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye was even clearer than his own.
Ancient God Rosy Cloud and Ancient God Sundermount also turned to Zhao Feng.
Ever since entering the Ancestral Legacy Treasury, Zhao Feng's dazzling performance had won their trust.
"I'm sure that if we make any strange movements, we'll alert the mysterious fragment."
Zhao Feng slowly said.
His left eye had been observing the mysterious fragment emitting the formidable force of time.
Ever since his God's Spiritual Eye reached the Quasi God Eye level, he rarely encountered anything he couldn't see through, and this fragment was the hardest to understand.
"Why do you have such a judgment?" Xin Wuheng was shocked.
He did not want to provoke the power of the mysterious fragment.
The Power of Time was a Rule Power that was extremely difficult to break. Based on the current understanding, there was basically no effective way to restrain the Power of Time.
On the contrary, all the powers in the world were suppressed by the power of time.
"This fragment is the crux of the entire castle. All of the timeforce in the castle region is under its control. "
Zhao Feng said calmly.
The three members of the Giant God Race felt stifled.
Simply put, as long as they made any strange movements, they would be attacked by the power of time.
However, in the surroundings of the dilapidated castle, there was a huge amount of precious materials. Treasures like the "Moonlight Sky Bamboo" could be seen from time to time.
It wasn't an exaggeration.
If he could plunder the precious materials in a single area of the castle, his gains would be ten times better than before!
"What should we do? If we don't hurry, the people from Ancient Soul Hall will get here soon …. "
Ancient God Caiyun and Ancient God Sundermount were extremely unwilling.
As he gazed at Zhao Feng's calm and elegant face, Xin Wuheng suddenly smiled. "Brother Zhao, you probably have a plan."
The two had known each other for a very long time, so he had a deep understanding of Zhao Feng.
If there really wasn't any chance, Zhao Feng would have retreated long ago instead of wasting time here.
"We can only wait."
After spitting out these three words, Zhao Feng fell silent.
He said to himself, whether I can succeed or not will depend on whether the 10th ranked Locustmoth Race lives up to its name.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
In front of the castle, the ball of insects began to slowly swell, further pressuring the mysterious fragment.
Judging from the situation, the sea of insects seemed to have the upper hand.
"Heh, little insects, you've gotten stronger, but it's useless."
The ancient Spacetime voice came from the fragment in the ball of light.
Before the voice could finish speaking:
Pop!
An even more intense Time energy surged in the huge castle. Soon after, a dazzling white light soared into the sky around the fragment.
A moment later, a ring-shaped Time shockwave engulfed everything for several hundred li.
Wherever this Time shockwave passed, all things fell silent. All things in the world seemed to freeze.
"What!?"
On the other end, Zhao Feng and the three Ancient God Race members felt the ripples of a Law that could not be defied.
A few ripples of energy came from the battle up ahead.
In a flash:
The bodies, bloodlines, and even thoughts of the four present froze.
The wind froze, and even their breathing and hearts seemed to stop.
"Time Stop?"
At this moment, this was the only thought in Zhao Feng's mind.
"Time Law? Just where did this fragment come from …? "
Xin Wuheng was stunned.
In his last life, he had reached the God Lord level and comprehended a Law, so he naturally knew how terrifying a Law was.
And amongst all the Laws, the Time Law was revered!
But now, this tiny fragment was able to activate the forbidden energy of the Time Law: Time Stop!
Even time had stopped. No matter how powerful you were, what could you do?
Crack!
Countless cracks immediately appeared on the surface of the compressed "Insect Sea Sphere".
In a flash:
Countless insect shells fell to the ground, forming a wretched sea of insect corpses. There were at least several dozen million of them.
Xin Wuheng and Zhao Feng both felt their hearts tremble at this sight.
At this moment, they deeply understood just how merciless and tyrannical Time energy was.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Tens of millions of insect corpses were falling to the ground at every moment, forming a thicker and thicker sea of insect corpses.
Creak!
A sharp cry came from the center of the insect sea, cold and hateful.
"That's the Stemborer Queen!" Xin Wuheng called out.
Zhao Feng chuckled. "The Stemborer Queen is about to counterattack …."
In a flash:
The surface of the insect sea sphere formed by the Stemborer Queen army began to exude layers of black mist.
This black mist was extremely astonishing, and as the Time energy swept through it, it began to expand at a terrifying rate.
One hundred feet … one hundred feet … one thousand feet … one hundred thousand feet!
In less than ten breaths, a Sky Pillar Nest appeared in the black mist.
The 'sky-propping nest' appeared in the dissipating black mist, emitting an ancient and wild aura.
Zhao Feng and the other members of the Giant God Race felt their minds tremble, and they felt a strange urge to prostrate themselves.
It was as if the Sky Pillar Nest was the origin of everything.
"Mm?"
Zhao Feng discovered that the God's Spiritual Eye's Origin energy rippled under this aura.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! A black gust of wind surged out of the Sky Pillar Nest, sweeping the hundred million insect corpses into the Sky Pillar Nest.
The interior of the Sky Pillar Nest began to wriggle.
"Recycling?" Zhao Feng had a strange expression.
Xin Wuheng couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of the tenth ranked mythical race. They can even resist the power of the Time Law a little."
At this moment:
The ball of light around the fragment dimmed a little.
Just now, it had used up a lot of energy to use the forbidden power of Time Stop for around ten breaths.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye could sense that the Time Law protecting the ruined castle seemed to be slightly dimmer than before.
"Your plan is …?"
Xin Wuheng suddenly understood a little.
Zhao Feng probably wanted to use the Stemborer army to exhaust the fragment and the castle's Time Law.
That Time Stop just now had used up a lot of the fragment's Time Law.
Right at this moment:
Tens of thousands of holes appeared on the surface of the Sky Pillar Nest, and one could faintly see the sticky liquid inside.
Sizzle! Sizzle! …
Silver-white transparent insects jumped out of the holes and spread their transparent wings, their surfaces glowing faintly.
"Hmm?"
Zhao Feng was slightly surprised.
He could faintly sense a faint ripple of Time from these insects.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Millions of glowing insects gathered into a sea of light and charged at the dilapidated ancient city.
This time:
The Stemborer Queen's target didn't seem to be the castle anymore.
This wasn't the end.
Countless Copper Beetles fell from the holes of the sky-high nest. These insects had sharp limbs.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! These Copper Beetles quickly burrowed into the ground and split into more than ten groups, attacking the castle from underground.
"The Stemborer Queen has changed its strategy."
Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng looked at each other.
The Stemborer Queen seemed to know how troublesome the mysterious fragment was, so it turned to attack the castle.
The castle was bigger, so it could withstand more attacks.
"What a cunning insect. Your Stemborer Queen Nest has evolved a new species of insect that has a certain resistance to the power of Time."
The mysterious fragment within the ball of light finally changed color.
In the sky, the insects gave off faint Time undulations and turned into a sea of light that attacked the castle.
The other group of Copper Beetles had strong defense and were adept at burrowing into the ground.
Their target was the dilapidated ancient castle.
The mysterious fragment had to maintain the castle's defenses, so it expended a lot of energy.
In the next period of time:
A long war of attrition ensued.
Insects were turning into carcasses on the ground and underground.
But new insects would soon be born from the Sky Pillar Nest, providing an endless stream of reinforcements.
They bit each other, neither willing to admit defeat.
Two days later:
"It's about time to strike."
Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng glanced at each other and nodded.
At this moment, the mysterious fragment's power was mostly occupied by the Stemborer army, and it had expended a lot of energy. This was the perfect time to take advantage of the chaos.
At the same time:
Several powerful auras appeared in a certain part of the castle.
Swish! Swish! Swish …
Several figures stood still and stared at the distant castle and the Sky Pillar Nest, which was even larger than the castle itself.
That magnificent and epic battle scene caused their hearts to tremble.
"That lair is …" Ancient God Destruction Flow was stunned.
"The Stemborer Queen Nest!"
Only Yu Heng had an indifferent expression as he leisurely said, "From the scale, the Stemborer Queen has at least reached peak Rank Nine."
The three half-step God Lords and Yu Heng used their Divine Senses to take a closer look.
The fragment within the mysterious ball of light was reflected in their senses.
"What's that?" Ancient God Ice Jade and Ancient God Black Prison were rather interested.
"An Ancestral Artifact fragment!"
For the first time, the composed Yu Heng grimaced, excitement and fervor appearing in his eyes.
An Ancestral Artifact fragment?!
The three half-step God Lords were all stunned. They had apparently heard of this legend before.
"Starting from now, our primary target is the Ancestral Artifact fragment."
Yu Heng firmly said.
"That Ancient God Seal …" Ancient God Black Prison weakly asked.
"If we can obtain the Ancestral Artifact fragment with Time energy, we can put the Ancient God Seal aside for now."
