The Heavenly Immortals and Earthly Immortals present hadn't expected the extraterrestrial creatures to flee.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal, standing beside Chu Shi, remarked, "I didn't think these extraterrestrial beings would actually run!"
Chu Shi replied, "Indeed. After all, facing us means certain death for them. Running now might offer them a sliver of hope."
What truly concerned Chu Shi, however, was whether these escaping extraterrestrial creatures could actually break free from the Grand Unity Golden Immortal's formation.
Chu Shi declared, "Let's pursue them for a while!"
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal chimed in, "Alright, let's have a competition. Whoever kills more of these extraterrestrial beings wins!"
Chu Shi and Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal took off, unleashing their skills as they flew.
After a brief pursuit, the extraterrestrial creatures, in their desperate flight, soon reached the edge of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal's barrier.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal was busy dispatching the extraterrestrial creatures, while Chu Shi focused his attention on those who had reached the barrier's edge.
Chu Shi's gaze fixed on the extraterrestrial creatures, his mind calculating the mere 0.001 seconds remaining before they would collide with the Grand Unity Golden Immortal's formation.
Collision, yes, Chu Shi inwardly believed these extraterrestrial creatures were bound to crash into the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation. After all, it was an exceptionally powerful formation.
The extraterrestrial creatures continued their forward momentum.
The first one to reach the edge of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation slammed directly into it.
Upon impact, ripples spread outwards. These ripples fed back, repelling the extraterrestrial creature.
The other extraterrestrial creatures met the same fate, being forcefully repelled upon hitting the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation.
Witnessing this, Chu Shi began to ponder how to leverage the Grand Unity Golden Immortal's formation.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal, meanwhile, continued his relentless assault on the extraterrestrial creatures, oblivious to Chu Shi's thoughts.
Even with the Heavenly Immortals attacking, they were merely reducing the number of extraterrestrial creatures outside the formation.
The spatial rift, however, continued to spew forth Earthly Immortal-level extraterrestrial creatures. Alongside them, those in the Nascent Soul and Tribulation Transcendence stages were sacrificed as cannon fodder.
After a period of attack, Chu Shi retreated outside the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal's barrage had also depleted his spiritual energy. Retreating outside the formation allowed him to replenish his expended strength.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal exclaimed, "There are simply too many of these extraterrestrial creatures! Are they all above the Nascent Soul stage? If so, this is terrifying. At this rate, the Nascent Soul and Tribulation Transcendence stage extraterrestrial creatures are endless. And the Earthly Immortals too. If that's the case, then when the Heavenly Immortal level ones start appearing, we'll be hopelessly outmatched. Look at how few Heavenly Immortals are here. How can we possibly contend?"
Chu Shi and Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal hovered outside the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation, observing the extraterrestrial creatures within. The creatures emerging from the spatial rift were constantly increasing in number. The area within the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation was a dense swarm of extraterrestrial beings.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal stated, "The extraterrestrial creatures emerging from the spatial rift are also growing in number. We're probably at two million now. Fortunately, we have this Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation. Otherwise, all these creatures inside would have broken out."
Chu Shi concurred, "Precisely. It seems our strength as Heavenly Immortals is still insufficient. We need to continue improving our cultivation."
Meanwhile, trapped within the Grand Unity Golden Immortal formation, the extraterrestrial creatures, realizing their inability to escape, began attempting to dig tunnels and fly upwards.
Another Heavenly Immortal nearby observed, "They're even digging tunnels and flying! They intend to break out from underground or from above. Will they manage to fly out?"
A nearby Heavenly Immortal responded, "If you can think of this, how could a Grand Unity Golden Immortal possibly not?" 138 Reading Network
After digging for a long time underground, the extraterrestrial creatures still encountered the formation's obstruction. Those flying upwards moved even faster, only to hit a ceiling-like barrier. The highest point was at a hundred kilometers, and the ground was also blocked by a barrier. No matter whether they went up or down within the Grand Unity Golden Immortal's barrier, the extraterrestrial creatures were unable to escape.
Chu Shi and the other Heavenly Immortals were recovering their stamina outside the formation.
Inside the formation, the number of extraterrestrial creatures continued to grow.
A small group of extraterrestrial creatures inside the formation formed a circle, arranging themselves in specific formations.
Once positioned, the dark substances within the extraterrestrial creatures connected, forming a formation pattern.
Cheng Guang Heavenly Immortal exclaimed, "A formation? These extraterrestrial creatures can also use formations?"
Outside, Su Han and Chu Yun watched the formation being constructed by the extraterrestrial creatures.
Su Han remarked, "Chu Yun, the formation the extraterrestrial creatures are building gives me a sense of unease."
Chu Yun replied, "Yes, I feel it too."
At this moment, the approaching Heavenly Immortals instinctively sensed the ominous nature of the formation.
Several Heavenly Immortals immediately attacked the formation.
"Roar!" Several Earthly Immortal-level extraterrestrial creatures sacrificed their lives to block the attacks.
"What? The extraterrestrial creatures are using their lives to block our attacks!"
"No, continue attacking! That formation is definitely problematic!"
The Heavenly Immortals pressed their attack. The extraterrestrial creatures continuously used their lives to obstruct the Heavenly Immortals' assault, forming a sphere to shield themselves.
As the Heavenly Immortals hesitated, a more powerful attack descended, clearing away all the extraterrestrial creatures blocking the way.
Subsequently, a few more attacks were launched, eliminating the extraterrestrial creatures forming the formation.
It was Chu Yun's three Golden Immortal subordinates who had intervened.
"Golden Immortals have entered the fray!"
"Golden Immortals are indeed far more powerful."
"The Golden Immortals cleared them all out in just a few moves!"
Extraterrestrial creatures continued to pour out of the spatial rift incessantly. The number had now reached nearly three million.
At this moment, Su Han and Chu Yun received a premonition from the Heavenly Dao.
Su Han stated, "Hmm, in just an hour, the spatial rift will be able to pass Heavenly Immortal level extraterrestrial creatures. And there are so many Heavenly Immortals below."
Chu Yun waved his hand, and his three Golden Immortal subordinates flew into the formation to begin clearing out the extraterrestrial creatures below the Earthly Immortal level.
The difference between an Earthly Immortal and a Heavenly Immortal is vast, and the gap between a Golden Immortal and an Earthly Immortal is even greater.
