My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Nine Thunder Flame Dragons, shimmering with scorching flames and the brilliance of thunderbolts, plummeted from the high heavens.

The ground collapsed, forming mountains that rose up only to shatter in the endless light and heat.

A vast cloud of smoke mushroomed skyward, with streaks of thunderous fire flickering as visible shockwaves expanded outward, repeatedly sweeping across the land.

After a brief moment,

as the smoke and fire gradually dissipated, the enormous body of the Giant Serpent began to emerge.

The Calamity Beast - Giant Serpent's scales were badly damaged, half of its body riddled with gashes as if it were a charred and electrocuted dead snake.

For an ordinary creature, such injuries would indeed be severe, but...

This was a Calamity Beast.

A Calamity Beast born for war, sowing disaster.

In the blink of an eye, the dead skin on the Calamity Beast started to fall off, with scales regrowing one by one.

The Calamity Beast gradually came back to life, its massive jaws opening slightly.

Daylight streamed in.

Lord Orochi's elder looked out at the view beyond and burst into loud laughter, "We are unscathed, this is the mighty weapon, Lord Orochi!"

The Giant Serpent began to move.

Its defensive strength even astonished Mr. Mu.

"The name of the Calamity Beast is no exaggeration."

The fall of the Nine-headed Roaring Thunder Flame Dragon was both a probe—Mu Yuan needed more precise information on the Calamity Beast—and a stalling tactic.

They had already delayed the Calamity Beast for a while.

Now, arriving at the battlefield was Tianyuan City's top general, Duo Lai!

Duo Lai flew into the area, where energy was still rampant and shockwaves had yet to subside.

Its Ever-changing Badge transformed from wings into a Staff, held in hand.

"To defeat the big boss and guard Tianyuan City, this general is duty-bound."

It started with a basic A attack to test the waters.

A scorching sun erupted within the mist, bombarding the Calamity Beast - Giant Serpent.

More terrible light and heat exploded, and the violent shockwaves burst forth.

However, the Calamity Beast - Giant Serpent merely flicked its head. Duo Lai's basic A, imbued with boundless energy comparable to the ultimate strike of an ordinary legend, couldn't even push the Giant Serpent back half a step.

The Giant Serpent was just too massive.

Its mere presence on the land meant a subtle alteration of the geology.

Seeing no effect from the initial strike, Duo Lai was not discouraged.

During that brief moment of the basic A, it had simultaneously maneuvered and placed a Space-tearing Seal into the surrounding environment.

With Duo Lai at the center, two space fissures spread out like whips, rapidly extending to either side.

The elder of the Orochi clan caught a glimpse of the two spatial fissures.

A sudden apprehension sprang in his chest.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Don't panic, even if it's spatial fissures, they are merely stronger cutting forces. Such fissures are dangerous for us, but to the mighty weapon, the Giant Serpent, they still mean nothi—"

Rip—

The elder felt as if he heard something tearing.

"Is it a hallucination?"

Rip—

The weapon that was the Giant Serpent jolted suddenly, causing the distracted elder to stagger.

Rip—

The trembling of the weapon grew more intense.

"What's happening?!"

Unseen by those within its mouth, Duo Lai had already flown to the Giant Serpent's critical spot. The two spatial fissure whips, now stretching hundreds of meters, whipped directly towards this vital location.

The hard scales, which had withstood the Nine-headed Roaring Thunder Flame Dragon, were effortlessly torn apart like cloth.

The spatial fissures continued forward, practically unimpeded.

This was certainly not just the power of space.

The cutting force brought about by the shattered space was terrifying; the slightest carelessness in the Legendary Realm could easily slice an entire body to pieces.

But if it were only spatial power, it could cut, yet cutting would not come easily.

Like hacking at pork with a blunt knife.

Duo Lai's energy was immense, tens of times greater than beings of its level, but not enough to overpower a creature of the Calamity Beast's size.

```

But the space torn open by General Duo Lai's Space-tearing Seal was not a common spatial rift; it also possessed the conceptual power of cracking and tearing.

In the face of conceptual power, the Calamity Beast - Giant Serpent was at most just a thicker entity.

The sensation of tearing apart the Disaster Beast and tearing apart a Goblin felt much the same.

The above was General Duo Lai's description.

The enormous Giant Serpent was bisected by the space-tearing whip-like fissures as thin as threads, and its bisected body began to plummet with a thunderous crash.

Its flesh writhed but could not recover an inch.

This was a conceptual wound.

It was not only its body that was cleaved in two; the entire Disaster Beast's operational and internal circulatory systems were also simultaneously severed and torn apart.

Amidst the spreading gunpowder smoke and dust, the Disaster Beast struggled but could no longer rise.

Several elders from the Legendary Realm of the Orochi clan crawled out of the serpent's mouth, and just as they took flight, they were met with General Duo Lai's fiercely shining eyes.

"Letting this general catch you all now."

"This time, I'll take the credit for the first victory!"

Space continued to crack.

The crease spread like a large net, enveloping the four corners of the sky.

...

As the Disaster Beast remained motionless in the dust for the first minute, the Battle Armor General, Duke Gold, and Black Crow High Priest clenched their fists.

When the Disaster Beast remained motionless in the dust for several minutes, the Battle Armor General, Duke Gold, and Black Crow High Priest slightly relaxed.

As the Disaster Beast remained motionless for over ten minutes,...

When the Disaster Beast remained motionless for half an hour,...

The Battle Armor General and Duke Gold murmured, "Did Tianyuan City stop the Disaster Beast?"

The Black Crow High Priest's eyes widened, as a sense of ill-omen suddenly rose in his heart.

Tianyuan City was powerful, but it seemed too powerful.

It couldn't be this powerful, right?

"What's wrong with the great weapon, the Giant Serpent? Move, quickly start moving!"

"Don't tell me the High Priest's curse has actually come true?!"

...

Inside the Orochi clan, the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Unable to contact the frontline elders, the High Priest of the Orochi wasn't quite sure what had happened.

But he was very clear that the great weapon, the Giant Serpent, had stopped.

Whether it was trapped or something else, this was very bad news.

The Giant Serpent couldn't even get close to Tianyuan City.

No, from its emergence to being stopped, to being immobilized, it only took thirty seconds.

Was the Giant Serpent only imposing for thirty seconds?!

Could it be that this was a fake great weapon?

The High Priest had no time to mourn the calamity weapon, the Giant Serpent; he had to bite the bullet and pray as he reported to Lord Orochi.

At the same time,

Outside the Orochi clan's headquarters.

A rolling black fog transformed into a carpet that blanketed the earth, the chill wind coming in gusts seemed like rows of soldiers guarding both sides.

A figure clad in a black cloak approached from the edge of the sky atop the black fog.

He held high the Wailing Death.

The sounds of lamenting bells echoed throughout the land.

Hum——

A massive black gate opened behind the newcomer, adorned with mysterious patterns and hundreds of meters tall, with black mist continuously pouring out of it as if it led to Nether Hell.

The synchronized footsteps came from the Gate of the Netherworld.

Countless dead marched forth.

Dead Bone held up swords, upon which the Land of the Dead was projected.

"Bang——!"

Like shattering glass, Dead Bone knocked open the gates of the Orochi clan.

Behind them, the Army of the Dead swarmed in.
