"Just descended and already facing the siege of two major versions?"
Lu Yan's heart sank. There was no doubt that the situation before him was a hellish start.
Just the previous Floating Fortress alone would be enough to bury most Golden Core cultivators, not to mention the even more terrifying lineup now.
If I had been experiencing a normal version update, as a True Inheritor of the Taiyi Sect, I should have appeared in the heart of the All Immortals Alliance in the Xianxia version.
But because of my Unchanging trait, not altering with the version update, that's why I ended up directly in the already fallen ruins of the Cave Profound Blessed Land?"
Lu Yan vaguely understood.
The current predicament, to put it bluntly, was still due to a lack of information about the Great Collapse version.
If he had known that this area, the ruins of the Blessed Land, had already fallen, Lu Yan would have fled immediately, without getting caught between the two major forces.
Now it's too late to say anything, and Lu Yan can only calm himself to face the crisis at hand.
However, the Giant Spirit God soon brought Lu Yan some "bad news."
"In the western sky, the two slightly smaller ones are Secondary War Fortresses of the Intelligent Machinery City, the same model as the one our master previously shot down. Its firepower is formidable, able to contend with a battle array formed by more than ten Golden Core cultivators.
The larger one is the Satellite-Class War Fortress, the most famous killer weapon of the Intelligent Machinery City on the battlefield, with a terrifying record of killing Nascent Soul cultivators.
In the eastern sky, there is a Demigod strongman from the Land of the Gods who has ignited the Divine Fire. His followers have already gathered a group of heroic spirits. As soon as he raises the Divine Kingdom to the Star Realm, he can achieve godhood.
In terms of strength alone, a Demigod Realm strongman is comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator."
Even though he had estimated this, Lu Yan still felt a sinking feeling in his heart, and he asked softly:
"I remember the Great Collapse version only restricts beings under a hundred years old from entering. Searching the entire Xianxia version, you can't find a few Nascent Soul Realm powers under a hundred, but why is it so easy to deploy Nascent Soul Realm powers in this Great Collapse version?"
The Giant Spirit God's eyes flashed before providing an answer.
"Cultivators of the All Immortals Alliance are known for their powerful late-stage Extraordinary System; their long lifespans make it extremely rare among various forces. Breaking through to the Nascent Soul before a hundred is difficult.
But the main strength of the mechanical life forms of Intelligent Machinery City comes from the technological system. To Intelligent Machinery City, a one-year-old mechanical life form and a hundred-year-old one are no different. As long as the industrial system and mineral resources of Intelligent Machinery City are maintained, they can continuously produce war machinery.
The Land of the Gods follows a belief system; as long as enough Power of Faith is gathered, even an ordinary person can step into a power comparable to the Golden Core's Holy Domain in a very short time.
Though the Demigod rank is difficult, for the vastness of the Land of the Gods, forcibly nurturing a Demigod strongman under a hundred is not that difficult."
Lu Yan's face turned dark instantly, realizing he suffered from the disadvantage of the late-stage power of the Xianxia system.
"Most True Inheritors of the All Immortals Alliance are only in the Golden Core Realm; how can they contend with forces from other versions?"
"... Information is incomplete, unable to query."
Although he did not get the answer he wanted, the general information Lu Yan learned from the Giant Spirit God made his heart ease a bit, at least better than a complete blackout previously.
After a brief exchange with the Giant Spirit God, the two major forces in the sky had already completely descended upon this place.
"Didn't choose to run away?"
A slight surprise flashed in the eyes of a Demigod on the cloud.
As a seasoned Demigod of the Land of the Gods, Keynes had participated in hunting many True Inheritors of the All Immortals Alliance's Golden Core, but often before any action, those Golden Core True Inheritors with keen Divine Souls would disappear in a flash.
The escape speed of True Inheritor cultivators is unmatched, often with explosive Blood Escape, Spatial Escape Techniques, and flying magical treasures. Even if a Demigod hasn't formed an encirclement, it might not be able to intercept them.
Of course, Keynes was just a bit surprised; in fact, even if Lu Yan were to exert his Escape Technique with all his strength at this moment, he couldn't escape the confines of the large Spatial Force Field.
The technological methods of Intelligent Machinery City even made the Demigods of the Land of the Gods sigh with admiration.
And in another part of the sky, atop the Satellite-Class War Fortress, a mechanical giant eye gazed down at the earth. As white light flickered in its eye, a torrent of information flowed, and then the mechanical voice of the main brain sounded.
"The enemy consists of one human and five Ghost Dao cultivators.
The human cultivator has Peak of Foundation Establishment cultivation, and the other five are Ghost Dao cultivators at the Early Stage of Golden Core; all are not qualified to enter the True Inheritor sequence."
"Peak of Foundation Establishment? Five Early Stage Golden Core Ghost Cultivators?" Keynes's expression changed drastically, immediately questioning: "With such weak strength, how could they destroy a Secondary War Fortress?"
The mechanical giant eye rotated its gaze, then responded:
"According to the upload logs from the main brain, the Secondary War Fortress experienced a series of explosions due to an accidental reactor mishap. As a result, the war protocol was disrupted, allowing the enemy to breach the blockade and unleash a powerful spell at close range, destroying the Secondary War Fortress."
Confirming this information, Demigod Keynes was greatly disappointed.
"The Secondary War Fortress, reputed for hunting True Inheritors of the All Immortals Alliance, was actually destroyed by one Peak of Foundation Establishment cultivator and five Golden Core Ghost Cultivators. It truly is laughable!"
Keynes's expression was filled with displeasure. While the True Inheritors of the All Immortals Alliance are indeed Golden Core cultivators, not all Golden Core cultivators can be called True Inheritors; only a few of the top Golden Core cultivators can be considered as such.
If other Demigods of the Land of the Gods knew he had brought his army of heroic spirits, expending a massive amount of Power of Faith to the battlefield, only to deal with a few Golden Core Ghost Cultivators and a minor role at the Peak of Foundation Establishment, he would undoubtedly face criticism.
