Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 1052 - 638: Planetary Defense Array
Chapter 1052: Chapter 638: Planetary Defense Array
The question posed by the Fourth Elder was indeed quite thorny.
It was unsolvable, for they had already given up over half of their star domains.
No matter what, if they chose to engage in attrition, they simply couldn’t outlast the enemy.
Grand Elder Lu Ming also frowned slightly, but before he could speak up, Ye Feng, who sat at the head of the table, gently tapped the tabletop.
Instantly, everyone’s gaze shifted to him.
"I believe that choosing attrition is actually quite advantageous for us. With the resources we’ve stockpiled, this level of consumption is something I believe we can sustain for a few hundred years, right?" Ye Feng said as he looked around.
Everyone nodded, as in reality, such large-scale campaigns typically lasted tens of thousands of years in the past.
"Then I can clearly tell everyone that with my speed of cultivation, I only need one year to break through to the Mid Supreme Deity and three years to reach the later stages. In ten years, I can reach the peak," he continued.
"At most thirty years, and I will have reached the God King Realm," Ye Feng said slowly.
The faces of the others undoubtedly showed astonishment.
They wanted to voice their doubts, but they remembered that Ye Feng, after vanishing for just over two months, had reappeared having broken through from the True God Realm to the Higher Gods.
The questions on the tip of their tongues were all swallowed back down.
And now, Ye Feng, just a Higher God, already possessed God King Level combat power. Then what would his combat power be when he truly became a God King?
Could he possibly be invincible among his peers?
They did not know whether Ye Feng could achieve that, but it was unquestionably certain that after Ye Feng’s breakthrough, he would be an extremely powerful figure within the God King Realm.
Even if he wasn’t invincible among his peers, taking on five or six by himself shouldn’t be a problem, right?
Wouldn’t that resolve the issue?
With this thought, everyone started to let go of their concerns, and even felt that the enemy engaging them in an attrition war was quite good.
"Alright, if no one has any objections, then our next focus will be on fully establishing our planetary defense system," said Tian Yuan.
"Once that’s accomplished, when the enemy attacks, it will be as if we have an additional God King Level combat power on our side, which can make up for a lot of disadvantages," Tian Yuan stated.
Of course, no one opposed, and the decision was made.
However, the atmosphere in the room was still grave.
Because even with the planetary defense system complete, they only had four God King Realm strongmen on their side.
But the Primordial Temple had up to six God King Realm strongmen, still two more in terms of numbers.
And this wasn’t even their greatest concern. What worried them the most was how many God King Realm strongmen the Kunpeng Universe would ultimately send over.
It was known that there were a total of six God King Realm strongmen within the Kunpeng Universe.
If, in the worst-case scenario, all of them came over, then the number of God King Realm strongmen on the Primordial Temple’s side would reach an astounding nine.
By then, what could they use to defend themselves?
Tian Yuan naturally knew everyone’s worries, so he thought for a moment, and still decided to share Ye Feng’s situation.
"Actually, we do have reinforcement on the way. Ye Feng has also managed to ask a God King Realm strongman for help, who will arrive in as soon as half a month, or at the latest, one month," he said.
Everyone immediately looked at Ye Feng with surprised eyes. The ability to invite a God King Realm strongman was definitely no small feat.
Hadn’t Tian Yuan and Jia Xuan both been unable to invite a God King Level powerhouse?
"Courtyard Lord Ye Feng, may I ask about the strength of the God King Realm strongman you’ve invited?" Grand Elder Lu Ming couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Feng thought for a moment and gave an answer that made everyone believe, "In terms of combat power, he should not be weaker than Tian Yuan Court Master."
He could only say this much; otherwise, if he claimed that the friend he was waiting for could sweep away everything, nobody would believe it!
Hearing such a response from Ye Feng, everyone’s spirits were immediately lifted.
It should be noted that Tianyuan, within the God King Realm, is considered capable of facing two opponents at once.
If Ye Feng could also enlist a friend like this, it would be equivalent to increasing their combat power by two God King Realm strongmen.
In this way, adding up Tianyuan along with Ye Feng’s friend, it would be equivalent to having the power of four God King Realm warriors.
Then, with the addition of Ye Feng, Jiaxuan, and the planetary defense formations, it would all add up to the power of seven God King Realm warriors.
Although this was still not enough to close the gap with the forces of the Primordial Temple, the disparity was no longer as hopeless as before; at least they now had the confidence to hold out.
And as long as they could hold on, Ye Feng was their greatest reliance.
The atmosphere on the field finally lost some of its gravity.
Of course, the meeting did not end there; next, they began discussing the details.
...
Time flowed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, another week passed.
In the First Star Domain, Sirius.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this moment, an epic battle was taking place. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Around the periphery of Sirius were over a hundred legions, all belonging to the armies of the Primordial Temple, numbering over ten million.
They formed their formations, launching assault after assault at Sirius.
The entire planet of Sirius was shrouded in a massive light shield that blocked all the attacks.
Furthermore, Sirius itself shot out bursts of energy pillars, striking the besieging armies.
The battle between the two sides was a fierce and indeterminate struggle.
However, amidst the battle, many would cast their gazes toward another expanse of stars not far from here.
There, a clash of God King Level was underway.
Streaks of light, crossing the Milky Way like a blade, appeared, only to be quickly blocked by a shadow of a giant sword.
But in an instant, this shadow would be overwhelmed by a burst of spear light.
Near them was a ring of debris, the remnants of a star they had shattered not long before.
This was the combat between God Kings, capable not just of rending heavens and earth, but of shattering planets with a mere strike.
"Ye Feng, we’ve delayed long enough, it’s time to withdraw!" Tianyuan, engaged in fierce battle, transmitted a message to Ye Feng.
This was not their first foray out to face the enemy; each time they were sufficiently injured, they would immediately retreat.
"Okay!" Ye Feng didn’t hesitate and immediately flew towards Sirius.
The God King Strongmen from the Primordial Temple, naturally wanting to stop him, found it regrettable that Ye Feng was too fast. They also had to contend with Tianyuan and Jiaxuan, making it difficult to fully engage Ye Feng.
They could only watch helplessly as the three warriors covered each other and retreated back to Sirius.
The ones chasing up to the outskirts of Sirius could only vent their frustration by bombarding the planet’s outer shield time and again.
The shield shook violently under their assault but would not break.
And occasionally, an energy pillar with the might of a God King Level would shoot out, disrupting their attack.
This was the strength of the planetary defense system.
As long as enough energy was fed into it, the defense could hold off the attack of even six God King Realm strongmen for a short period.
Of course, such defense not only consumed a vast amount of energy, but the formation could also experience problems under the high-intensity load, thus requiring constant maintenance.
For this reason, Ye Feng and his allies would occasionally go out to face the enemy to minimize the burden on the planetary defense array as much as possible.
