Celestial Spirit·Fierce Sun!
An orange fireball descended upon the floating fortress. With the original ordinary Fireball Technique bearing the Celestial Spirit Position having transformed, it became a small sun in the truest sense.
This was the purest offensive power under the blessing of the Celestial Spirit.
The energy barrier that the floating fortress prided itself on was as fragile as a thin layer of paper in the face of such pure destructive energy.
When this artificial sun struck the floating fortress, the entire Blessed Ruins seemed to shudder.
In an instant, countless dazzling solar flares burst forth from the fireball’s surface, transforming into countless scorching energy tendrils that wound around the entire fortress. The alloy armor began to glow red under this horrific heat, and then slowly melted like a candle.
The wailing of the metal echoed in the sky. The once indestructible technological fortress now seemed to be on the surface of the sun, and all the solid materials turned into molten metal in this terrible heat. The floating fortress, spanning a kilometer in size, had now mostly become a mass of twisted, deformed metal lava.
Having lost its stable structure, the fortress began to tilt and ultimately fell towards the earth. The scorching metal rain fell during its descent, leaving countless charred craters on the wasteland.
Accompanied by a thunderous crash, this once world-shattering technological marvel slammed heavily into the ground, stirring up a vast cloud of dust.
The floating fortress, capable of easily annihilating Golden Core cultivators, was finally destroyed by Lu Yan, who was now panting lightly.
The continuous use of the Supreme Divine Techniques Seed blessings was not a small burden for Lu Yan, but more importantly, it was the environment of this world.
Every time Lu Yan utilized a spell with the Supreme Divine Techniques blessing, it consumed a large amount of magical power, and the thin Spiritual Qi here could not sustain Lu Yan’s consumption.
If it weren’t for Lu Yan having forged the Supreme Dao Foundation, with the magical power stored in ten layers of the Dao Foundation far exceeding cultivators of the same level, he might have already been drained in this great battle.
Taking out a pure white Spirit Crystal from the storage pouch, Lu Yan breathed in and out, restoring his magical power with the Spirit Crystal.
The Spirit Crystal is a superior substitute for the Spirit Stone, possessing more and purer Spiritual Qi and is not circulated in ordinary markets.
As the thirty-third true inheritor of the Taiyi Sect, Lu Yan annually received a generous resource quota, and before the version update began, he had advanced a ten-year basic resource quota, which included a thousand Spirit Crystals and a large number of third- and fourth-tier elixirs.
As his half-depleted magical power was gradually recovering, Lu Yan looked at the floating metal fortress, mostly burned by the Celestial Spirit Fierce Sun.
The Human Emperor Banner fell into his hand, and Lu Yan drew a trajectory in the void, then the Giant Spirit God, the Blood God, the Dharma Protector, the Yinli God, and the Abyss God—five ghostly deities—appeared around Lu Yan.
"We greet our master!"
The five ghostly gods manifested and immediately knelt to salute, while Lu Yan waved his hand and pointed to the still-melting floating fortress.
"The floating fortress has a main brain, see if you can find it in the wreckage and search for useful information."
Lu Yan hadn’t forgotten that the nature of the five ghostly gods was the Soul Computer, which naturally had its unique advantages against such technological constructs.
The five ghostly gods arrived before the floating fortress and began searching for its main brain, relying on the powerful Ghost God Computer, and quickly yielded results.
Although most of the floating fortress was destroyed by fire, some parts of the main brain remained, allowing partial information retrieval.
The Giant Spirit God, who forcibly plundered information from the floating fortress’s main brain, reported to Lu Yan.
"This floating fortress is from the Intelligent Machinery City and is a Secondary War Fortress, responsible for the routine patrol and cleanup of the Cave Profound Blessed Land ruins.
This Cave Profound Blessed Land was once one of the All Immortals Alliance’s bases, later besieged by several top powers, and was eventually reduced to ruins.
But it is said that somewhere in the Cave Profound Blessed Land, a treasure of the All Immortals Alliance remains, attracting many cultivators to explore it. The floating fortress’s primary mission is to kill any cultivators attempting to explore the Blessed Ruins."
A trace of realization flickered in Lu Yan’s eyes, then he asked:
"At the beginning of the battle, I heard the floating fortress’s main brain mention the ’Cancer of Immortality.’ What does that mean?"
"Cancer of Immortality? This seems to be what various factions call the true inheritor cultivators of the All Immortals Alliance. The exact reason is not recorded in the remaining part of the main brain..."
A torrent of information flowed in the Giant Spirit God’s eyes, then his expression suddenly changed.
"My lord, are you certain that the floating fortress used the term ’Cancer of Immortality’?"
Lu Yan was somewhat puzzled but still nodded in response: "Yes!"
"Those labeled as Cancer of Immortality true inheritor cultivators are the high-level and strongest power of the All Immortals Alliance, but the Cave Profound Blessed Land ruins are not within the All Immortals Alliance territory, belonging instead to the Intelligent Machinery City and the Land of the Gods.

Being within enemy territory, if your coordinates are transmitted back to the Intelligent Machinery City, they will spare no effort to pursue and kill you!"
The Giant Spirit God urgently ordered the Abyss God:
"Quickly activate spatial teleportation!"
The Abyss God sliced open the void with his fingertips, and as soon as the spatial rift appeared, it quickly healed. The spatial force field had long since silently sealed off the world.
"It’s already too late!"
In the western sky, three massive floating metal fortresses—one large and two small—broke through the clouds to descend, casting a giant shadow over the land. Mysterious energy patterns flowed on their alloy armor, and the roar of countless engines resembled the roar of ancient beasts, shaking every inch of the void.
And in the eastern sky, clouds churned as a towering golden pillar pierced through the clouds, revealing a majestic figure in the heavens, with thousands of spirit shadows behind him, their faith converging into a torch, sweeping the land with divine presence.
