An Yu and others were all desperately trying to decipher these formations, barriers, and the seals on the scrolls.
Every time they thought about how they had used all their means to seal these spaces before, and now, in order to escape, they had to use all their means to break them, they felt like spitting blood.
Each time this thought came to mind, their blood pressure would rise a bit, and each time they thought about it, their blood pressure would rise again.
They really didn't want to think about it, but their brains were always disobedient. While breaking these formations, they would always uncontrollably recall that they had done all this themselves.
All of this was set up to deal with Zhou Yan.
Now, they were being forced by Zhou Yan himself to break these formations one by one.
"Damn it! Bastard! Which son of a bitch set up such a powerful formation, it's going to kill me!"
"Nonsense, they even set up the Nine Heavens Trapping Formation, which bastard spent so much money!"
"This is the Heaven Sealing Seal, damn it!"
"This is the Dragon Binding Barrier, I'm going to spit blood!"
These guys cursed as they broke the formations, all wanting to open a corner of a formation and leave.
They never imagined that Zhou Yan's defense towers would be so terrifying, capable of attacking such a far distance. If it were any later, they would truly be annihilated one by one.
...
On the other side, when Zhou Yan ordered the defense towers to attack, he was also startled by these terrifying defense towers.
Looking at the spatial storm outside, at the heavens and earth being destroyed outside, at the area outside the territory that had already become the center of the explosion, everyone in the territory was stunned.
The scenes before their eyes were all filled with explosions of various energies. They didn't know what happened to the enemies, because in front of them, everything had been destroyed, annihilated by the terrifying defense towers.
Seeing the space as if it were about to shatter, Zhou Yan had to order the shutdown of some defense towers. These defense towers in the territory were simply too terrifying, not a battle of the same level at all.
The enemies had completely disappeared before their eyes. Under this destructive energy, even true gods could not resist, only to be torn apart and destroyed.
Zhou Yan shut down the top-tier defense towers. After the space outside stabilized a bit, he could see the fleeing enemies, but they had no way to escape.
These defense towers had tracking capabilities. No matter where they fled, they would be destroyed and annihilated.
Zhou Yan moved his territory, leaving that devastated land.
Zhou Yan began to actively attack the enemy territories.
The enemies closest to Zhou Yan's territory were now in trouble. The energy of Zhou Yan's territory's defense towers directly targeted the enemy territory's crystal and attacked it.
"Boom!"
With just one strike, not only was the formation outside the enemy territory destroyed, but the enemy's crystal was also completely shattered.
The soldiers in the enemy territory began to scatter and flee outside the territory, but how could they escape? In the end, they were still destroyed by the energy of the defense towers.
If they hadn't left the territory, perhaps they wouldn't have been annihilated by the defense towers, but they insisted on leaving, so they could only be wiped out.
Zhou Yan's territory's soldiers had already been fully deployed. They began to dismantle the shattered territories, collect their spoils of war, and kill the enemies still within the territories.
Territory after territory was shattered by Zhou Yan's territory's defense towers. This instilled even greater fear in the lords, who wished they could escape immediately, but they couldn't. There was simply no way to escape.
They had drawn a line on the ground and trapped themselves within it.
They had trapped Zhou Yan, but Zhou Yan had no intention of escaping. Instead, it was they who wanted to escape.
Ten billion soldiers were a joke in front of such terrifying defense towers. Ten billion soldiers were annihilated by the endless energy of the defense towers.
No matter how many soldiers there were, they were of no use against such terrifying attacks.
The enemy territories were rapidly decreasing. Experts wanted to attack the territories, but before they could get close, they were annihilated by the defense towers' attacks.
What was a demigod? It was nothing more than a single attack.
This suicidal offense was completely useless.
If Zhou Yan hadn't wanted to collect the buildings and materials from the enemy territories, he would probably have completely destroyed all the enemy territories.
But Zhou Yan didn't choose to do that. It was too wasteful. Zhou Yan wanted to develop and harvest the resources from these enemy territories. The defense towers only destroyed the crystals of their territories.
The enemies were still working hard to break the formations, barriers, and seals they had painstakingly set up, while Zhou Yan was rapidly destroying the crystals of one territory after another.
"Whoosh!"
A territory soared into the sky, wanting to leave this place.
"Bang!"
But this territory seemed to be hit by some immense formation, crashing directly into the seal, and then the entire territory fell from the sky, smashing onto the ground.
"What's going on? What on earth is happening?"
"Damn it, what is this? What is this thing? Why can't we get out?"
"Damn it, why is there such a huge formation?"
Everyone looked at the giant formation in the sky. This formation was enormous, covering an area of tens of thousands of kilometers. It was clearly not something that could be accomplished in a short time.
"Damn it, this Zhou Yan actually activated this formation earlier. No wonder he wasted so much time talking to us!"
An Yu remembered the scene where Zhou Yan had spoken to them before, delaying for time to set up the formation, and Zhou Yan's conversation with them was to delay the activation of the formation.
Zhou Yan had calculated long ago that they would come to deal with him, so he had turned their plan to his advantage, intending to catch them all in one net!
Even if An Yu knew, he would still have done the same.
Before they saw the terrifying attack unleashed by Zhou Yan's territory, none of them would have let go of such a good opportunity.
An Yu could only contact his previous allies again. They also knew the seriousness of the situation. This time, they admitted defeat, were completely defeated, and would never have the chance to deal with Zhou Yan again.
Regardless of what happened in the future, they could only think of a way to escape this place first.
Countless beams of light flew towards An Yu's location. They were all powerful individuals, and they were the lords of each territory.
The lords gathered again, all concentrated at An Yu's place. Their faces were extremely grim, and many even felt a great sense of crisis.
"Everyone, we need to break this formation together, otherwise we will all die here. You have seen the attacks from Zhou Yan's territory; even demigods cannot withstand a single blow. Although we don't want to admit it, we must face the facts. This time, we have utterly failed and can only find a way to escape..."
They all understood An Yu's words. Although they didn't want to admit it, they had to unite to break this formation.
If they didn't, they would be completely annihilated here.
"Let's make a move."
"We need to leave here first."
"Don't worry, we know what to do."
"We can talk about it after we leave here. For our lives, we must go all out."
They didn't say much, no superfluous nonsense, and began to break the formation, starting to destroy the formation set up by Zhou Yan.
But the formation set up by Zhou Yan was not easy to break.
Moreover, they had not completely destroyed the formations they had set up before. They still had to break through the formations set up by their own people first.
