The invisible domain spread out in an instant; first, the two cruisers were restricted, and then, as the expansion sped up, the three cruisers above quickly fell into it as well.
That was not the end. The domain of the Golden Armored Giant Beast was so vast that even the numerous escort ships that were over one hundred thousand meters apart were about to be engulfed by it.
Seeing this, the more than twenty escort ships could only use their own methods, and for a moment, the already extremely fast fleet of warships saw their speeds surge once again.
Inside Cang Qiong, Song Chi did not choose to utilize the power of the "Void Escape Orb," but instead activated the "Light Energy Aggregation" feature of the Light Energy Aggregation Engine. With the engine entering a state of extreme overload, Cang Qiong's speed suddenly doubled.
This increase in speed was among the highest for all the escort ships around.
Consequently, one by one, the escort ships were covered by the invisible domain, their velocity plummeting abruptly.
It was as though they had entered a slow-motion sequence.
In Cang Qiong, while controlling the warship to speed through space, Song Chi did not take his gaze off the other warships behind him, watching their inexplicably slowed speeds with a peculiar sensation creeping over him.
Though he did not know how much time had passed, the Golden Armor Domain released by the Golden Armored Giant Beast finally ceased its expansion. By that time, the diameter of the area it covered had reached a terrifying one million meters.
Nearly the entire Vault of Heaven above Copper Mountain Continent was enveloped by the domain.
Looking around Cang Qiong, only five escort ships had managed to break through.
Of those, three belonged to the Bai Family, and aside from Cang Qiong, only my father's Qingkong remained.
Before the five Torch Ship Captains could begin discussing their next course of action, a new change occurred within the invisible domain below.
As the domain's controller, the Golden Armored Giant Beast unquestionably had absolute authority within its domain. Though it had not reached the level of the masters of laws in secret realms, it was still more than enough to utterly suppress the five cruisers and twenty-one escort ships.
The world was changing color as metallic energy boiled throughout the entire domain, the boundless shining gold light almost covering the entire Vault of Heaven over Copper Mountain Continent.
If one thought that this was all, they would be gravely mistaken.
As boundless gold light rose into the sky, a gold spear thousands of meters long pierced through the clouds above Copper Mountain Continent, plummeting from the heavens.
The tip of this golden spear was wreathed in the terrifying power of the Golden Law. As it fell swiftly toward the ground below, frightening dark cracks appeared in the void alongside it. The spear, wrapped in the law of gold, easily tore the space around it apart.
The more than twenty Torch Warships within the Golden Armor Domain flickered with Ghost Light, reflecting the fear that the Torch Ship Captains must have felt inside.
Without a doubt, the fearsome ten-thousand-meter golden spear was aimed at them, and if they were hit by this spear, forged entirely from the power of the law, all the Torch Warships within the domain would be unable to escape a sinking fate.
This was not to be questioned; an attack formed by the Power of Laws, further reinforced by the domain, is not something cruisers and escort ships could withstand, unless they were equipped with components like the Neutron Star Core Armor on Cang Qiong.
Outside the domain, tension filled the faces of Song Chi and Song Chao. Although they were not within the range of the Golden Armor Domain, all the other members of their family were still inside, including Chen Lixia.
In contrast to the urgency of Song Chi and others, Bai Chongwen inside the cruiser below seemed remarkably calm.
His eyes focused, and with a thought, a special component within the warship was activated.
An orange light flickered, an odd halo forming at the base of his flagship, and the strange energy emanating from the halo began to spread rapidly in all directions.
"It's the 'Domain Collision Instrument.' That old man is finally willing to activate it!"
In Furious Lion, Song Mingsong mumbled to himself upon seeing this scene.
He knew of the special Orange Quality "Domain Collision Instrument" component since Bai Xiurong had sent him the attributes of the component in advance when she had asked for his participation.
Indeed, it was this special Orange Component that had ultimately convinced him to agree to her invitation, otherwise, merely being in a "severely injured state" would not have been enough to persuade him to agree so readily.
No matter how severely injured a Fourth Rank Lifeform was, it was still a Fourth Rank Lifeform.
Although, in a severely injured state, they might not be able to make extended use of the Power of Laws, the Starry Sky Behemoth with a special domain could compensate for its injuries to some extent, allowing it to utilize the Power of Laws against its foes multiple times within its domain.
So, only by shattering its domain's power could they genuinely stand a chance in battle with it.
As this special energy emerged, wherever it reached, the Golden Armor Domain of the Golden Armored Giant Beast quickly dissipated.
In just a short time, the domain space that had spanned a million meters collapsed thunderously, leaving Song Chi and others feeling as if they had experienced an anticlimax.
Above Copper Mountain Continent, now deprived of its domain's power, the Golden Armored Giant Beast in its severely wounded state seemed somewhat powerless to continue. Consequently, the golden spear falling rapidly from the sky above was greatly affected.
As it continued to plummet, its ten thousand-meter length rapidly shrank, and in just a moment, it was reduced to about three thousand meters.
