Chapter 829: Head-On Conflict

Lan Jue and Qianlin’s Harmonious Sword technique fought off two more avatars and one titan . Captus and Occisus was empowered by Lan Jue’s Boundless Starlight Domain . Together, not only were the two not in danger, they even held the upper hand .

Boundless Starlight, enhanced by the Queen of Heaven Domain, captured the three beasts within it . Lan Jue’s Palm of Five Lightnings was also a great boon . Since the monsters had to work harder to defend themselves against the Domain, their Harmonious Swords forced them to stick together and combine their might to ward off destruction .

It was still unsure which side would win, but for the moment the humans were not in danger of losing .

The Terminator fought off two of the monsters by himself . Already intrepid and formidable, his strength swelled beneath the light of the Queen of Heaven . He was no less frightening than the creatures that assailed him, and keeping them at bay was not an issue .

Things were going less happily for the other Paragons . The beasts were all of Nirvana-level at least . Other than the Pharmacist whose Slaughter Domain helped her keep up despite being a Reflection of Heaven and Earth, the others needed to double up against their foes .

Those avatars not locked in battle with the Paragons focused their attacks on Middle Heaven .

“Aagghh!” Monarch’s avatar, commanding the power of the Infinite, roared in feral rage . The other avatars cried back in response . They broke off their attacks on Middle Heaven and focused entirely on the Paragons .

Jue Di and Luo Xianni stood shoulder to shoulder, fighting off three more Infinite-level aliens . Lan Jue and Qianlin were still at war against two avatars and a titan . The Pharmacist had one avatar to herself . The Driver was focused on a titan, relying on the power of his primordial lightning to keep it pinned down . The Terminator was using all the strength available to him to battle two avatars .

Yet this was only ten of the creatures . The remaining twelve fell upon the rest of the human defense; the Wine Master, Clockmaker, Pauper, Keeper, Bookworm, the two Gods of Wine, the Pontiff, and Gourmet .

Just in terms of numbers they were at a disadvantage . What’s more, they couldn’t match up man to man in terms of Discipline strength .

The Clockmaker had already summoned her dharmic image, the enormous grandfather clock manipulating the flows of time to their benefit . The remaining eight Paragons fought for their lives head to head against a superior enemy .

“Go help them . ” Jue Di said to Luo Xianni at his side .

The two of them were faring well against three Infinite-level monsters . Jue Di’s golden staff was almost more than his foes could protect against . They were forced to defend themselves with everything they had and had no way to fight back . With the addition of Luo Xianni’s mystical camera they had already managed to cause them some harm .

But while they were gaining ground, their allies were in dire straits . Jue Di had to make a decision . Luo Xianni stared at him for a moment but offered no resistance . In a flash of pink she was gone, off to help their friends .

“Take advice from Luo Xianni . A camera is all you need!”

Click!

With the sound of the shutter all area above the twelve aliens was painted pink, twelve mirror images of Luo Xianni appeared from nowhere . The aliens froze in place .



The rest of the Paragons saw their moment . The Keeper and Bookworm’s Positron Cannon, the Wine Master’s Dimensional Compression, Gourmet’s soul fire, Pauper’s Taming Dragon Palm, and the others’ special attacks were unleashed all at the same moment .

At last some respite .

But containing so many Nirvana-level creatures was not easy for the Photographer . They remained frozen only for a moment, but at last the situation was coming under control .


As Luo Xianni left, the pressure on Jue Di rose sharply .

The three avatars he faced were the closest in strength to the planets themselves . Their experience in war was varied and extensive . Resilient tentacles lashed around the Paragons and he drew upon his Deva-gati Domain to hold them back . Suddenly this sector of space was filled with copies of the man, but when faced against the planets’ doppelganger they had little deterring effect . All they could do was distract and harass . Together the three monsters began to chip away at his Domain . While he quickly patched the holes they created, he was slowly losing ground .

All the while Jue Di faced his foes with a calm face . He swung his staff in an endless flurry of attacks, pummeling them with his Thousand-ton Cudgel technique .

The avatars worked together to defend themselves . Queen’s avatar split into several copies, revealing her master of interdimensional powers . Her images flit in and out of existence, attacking Jue Di’s blind spots . Consort’s fragment hovered by Monarch’s avatar and manipulated time around them .

Achieving such heights of power, the home worlds were knowledgeable in all the ways of the universe . Creation, destruction, space-time – all of them were fundamental powers of reality . In order to evolve and create their own realm, these were the powers they’d focused on cultivating .

Monarch’s avatar was encased in a shell of dark purple light . It glared at Jue Di with a ghastly face . Its arms had split into countless tentacles that seemed to swipe at the human from everywhere at once . Its own Domain fluctuated between creation and destruction, in constant conflict with Jue Di’s imposing aura .



Jue Di was strong, but even he had his limits within the Infinite . Facing three enemies of similar strength, even with all his knowledge and fighting experience, turning the tide to his favor would be extremely difficult .

The war continued on three fronts . Suddenly, a light erupted around them .

While the aliens were busy with the Paragons, Middle Heaven had slipped away and rejoined the main battle .

So far the armada had not gained ground, but were holding their own . The most dramatic fights were among the Paragons, but winning victory on the main field was key to success . If they could destroy the enemy’s primary force it would take the pressure off the human ships and give them more leeway .

Lan Qing did not join the Paragon battle, but not for lack of desire . He had a more important task to manage .

When Middle Heaven returned the alien leadership did not follow . Seeing their mighty bastion return unscathed, the human soldiers felt their hearts surge with hope .

The moment it returned to battle, Middle Heaven’s array of cannons were unleashed . With its molinite contained, the energy was refocused toward the bastion’s devastating attacks . Meanwhile Middle Heaven’s drones were finally able to return and charge their weapons .

After so long nearly all the drones from every bastion were low on energy . They had to return and recharge before returning to the front . For the moment, the armada was in a weaker position as its backup dwindled . They had to hold while their drones recharged . This was why Middle Heave hurried to return to their side .



The alien forces had sacrificed much, but were nearly through the human defensive line . The armada had begun to suffer significant losses . However as Middle Heaven came in guns blazing, the aliens were shoved back . The fleet commanders had some space to breathe .

As one side gained ground the other responded, back and forth as the fight continued . The stalemate kept both sides from dealing a definitive blow . Now it was a matter of who could hold out longer .

At present it appeared as though it was the aliens who were suffering greatest . Though the humans had to maintain a continuous rate of fire, they were not losing many ships and could hold out against a thinning alien horde .

However they were only gaining against weaker breeds of creatures . The stronger ones among them were withstanding the attacks, so the losses they faced were only their lower caste . The core of the alien army remained intact .

Hummmm . A strange buzzing sound arose as suddenly six glittering blue halos appeared . They spread out among the aliens, washing over them and freezing them in place .

Poseidon’s main weapons fired, six Soft Water bombs detonating in the midst of their enemies . All of a sudden their side of the field was less crowded . Though the attack was hardly flashy, the efficacy of Poseidon’s primary weapons were uncontested . In this fight they were even more effective than Tyrannosaurus .

The Northern bastion did not employ its main cannon, the cost would be too great . The enemy was too spread out and using it would be like trying to hit a mosquito with laser rifle . Under these conditions it was more useful to siphon that power into their shields, keeping them in the fight as long as possible .

Though they were holding their own, the situation was looking less favorable for the humans . This was especially true for the Paragons, who were stretched thin . If one fell, it could cascade into a torrent that would turn the battle against them .

Lan Qing wasn’t the only one who saw it . Kang Hui and Hua Li recognized the danger as well .

“Lan Qing, I’m going in to join them . We can’t afford to lose that fight . ” Hua Li said impatiently to Lan Qing’s image on his screen .
