Above The Sky-Chapter 1845 - 371: The Power to Destroy the World (Mini - ) (3)

In the distance, the Abyssal Lord and other Fourth Level Magical Beasts had already begun howling, unleashing their full power to protect their offspring and kin from an assault aimed at the entire continent—a ’continental-level’ attack.

And Ian, who had long considered himself the King of the New Continent, naturally could not allow such a massacre of his people and potential voters.

"More difficult to deal with than I imagined."

Without a moment’s hesitation, the Glazed-Glass Dragon carried Fairy Ian into the bud at the top of the Ladder Tree, merging directly with the entire Heavenly Ladder in the most straightforward manner.

As a technological extension of the same type as the Ecological Remodeling System, the Crystal Dragon naturally could take over a range of functions of the Heavenly Ladder System at the fastest speed. With his Rites of the Star Gods permissions, he also gained access to the ’Subspace Network’ that spanned the entire territory of the New Continent.

[All beings, head towards the corresponding refuges!]

At that moment, all the Magical Beasts and Humans on the New Continent, who were trembling while gazing at the ’Crystal Snow’ falling from the sky, heard a voice in their hearts. Along with this voice came ’Subspace Gateways’ appearing at various geometic nodes.

These gateways were entry points to the inner network. Over the years, the energy spilling from these points had created various Mystical Phenomena and resource sites on the New Continent, and even ecological parks, precisely where numerous intelligent beings gathered.

After setting everything in place, Ian knew he couldn’t expect everyone to be saved. There’d always be those unwilling to heed the warning, eager to test the strength of the Crystal Snow, but this was all he could do.

Now, Fairy Ian controlled the core system of the Ladder Tree, connected to the Heart of Terra, using immense computational power to interface with the Ladder, one by one. Soon, he looked enlightened: "Indeed, the Ladder has its own defense system, which is why Fifth Energy Level beings are unwilling to control it with brute force!"

"But I can take control of it to counter the Fifth Energy Level attack!"

If it were anyone else, they could never master the defense system in the time between activating the Heavenly Ladder System and greeting the Fifth Energy Level attack... but he was Ian! The inheritor of the Pioneer, holder of the Rites of the Star Gods, and possessor of the highest permissions!

The Heavenly Ladder System needed to adapt to his operating habits, not the other way around!

Soon, as the light in the firmament grew ever brighter, on another front, the Desolation Plague from the Fiery Flame Land was about to descend—a dark, gray sky abruptly caved in, as if a massive force was pressing it down, forming a surface like it was about to fall. This sunken surface contained an endless breath of destruction and desolation, a truly terrifying negative energy corrosive!

Compared with the silent Void Banishment, the truly overwhelming Desolation Plague made all remaining hesitant New Continent Magical Beasts screech and rush towards the Subspace Refuges that Ian had opened. Those without Fifth Energy Level powers finally realized why on the Terra Planet, only those with Fifth Energy Level powers could be considered ’Great Powers’.

Only those with world-destroying strength could survive in this world.

And at this moment.

At the center of the Ladder Tree, the form of a Glazed-Glass Dragon continued to expand, grow larger, with countless vines and branches entwined on its body, burning with vitality as vibrant as the sun.

In the next instant, accompanied by a Dragon’s Chant, azure light erupted, infinite aetheric light streams swirling, as a dragon seeming to be formed by stardust—the Aether Crystal Dragon—flew out from the top of the Ladder Tree, crashing headlong into the descending Desolation Plague and the rain of Void Banishment falling like a waterfall.

"Fifth Energy Level?"

Bearing the infinite power contained within the Aether Crystal Dragon and the Ladder Tree, Ian’s figure became more resplendent, like light and like a sword, stretching across the sky like a scar in the heavens.

Using the body as a sword, cutting across the sky!

"Let me experience your power!"
