608 Siege on the Divine Palace

“Maintain the cosmic array and try your best to resist it. I’ll contact His Majesty the Divine King again.”

Grand Emperor Long Yuan’s expression was determined. He was the only top-notch Grand Emperor in the Divine Palace, and was now the leader of everyone. But what could he do? Even if he went out alone, he was definitely not a match for that Silent Beast.

Although Grand Emperor Long Yuan was also a top-notch Grand Emperor, and his combat body had also reached ten light-years, his ultimate Law could only enhance it by two times. The combat body he cultivated back then had not reached the optimal level of compatibility with the Law.

At the level of a Grand Emperor, it was very difficult to improve the Law by even a little. Ordinary elementary and advanced Laws no longer provided any enhancement effects. After all, the Grand Emperor combat body was already powerful enough to suppress all techniques, and the combat body interfered with Laws.

Only ultimate Laws could provide some enhancement to the combat body. The extent of enhancement was usually two or three times, or four or five times. Only those ultimate Laws that were completely compatible with the combat body could enhance it by ten times!

The combat body that Grand Emperor Long Yuan cultivated back then had not reached the optimal level of compatibility with the ultimate Law he comprehended. Hence, it could not be enhanced by ten times now.

Such strength could only be considered average among top-notch Grand Emperors.

The Grand Emperor-level Silent Beast outside the cosmic array was a genuine top-notch Grand Emperor, and it was comparable to the cream of the crop among top-notch Grand Emperors.

Just by looking at the body, one could tell that it had reached a total of 40 light-years!

How terrifying was this monster? Even the strongest cosmic behemoth in the universe, and even a Grand Emperor-level cosmic behemoth, could not reach a body of 40 light-years. That was simply too shocking.

However, this Silent Beast with a body of 40 light-years was real. Moreover, it had appeared outside the Divine Palace of Bemond at this moment.

This colossal Silent Beast had been rampant in the Bemond Galaxy previously. In particular, after Divine King Bemond left, no one was its match. This powerful Silent Beast was the reason why the defense line of the Bemond Galaxy was broken through so quickly.

The massive Silent Beast led a total of 16 Grand Emperor-level Silent Beasts. Just this lineup was enough to make one’s heart palpitate. Moreover, these Silent Beasts were attacking the cosmic array of the Divine Palace of Bemond together.

Boom.

The cosmic array shook again. This time, the planets connected to the cosmic array were all shaken violently. With just one blow, the cosmic array was already on the verge of collapse.

Boom.

Another charge, and this was before the strongest Silent Beast attacked the cosmic array.

The cosmic array barely managed to hold out for twice. The strongest Silent Beast seemed very displeased. Hence, its massive body began to attack the cosmic array.

How terrifying was the impact of a terrifying behemoth with a body of more than 40 light-years?

Rumble.

There was no fluke. The cosmic array shattered, and even those planets were shaken violently. The world itself was upended, the flow of the oceans were reversed, and violent earthquakes broke out.

The breakdown of the cosmic array shattered the hope in the hearts of every cultivator in the Divine Palace of Bemond. They knew that they could no longer hide in the Divine Palace.

A trace of a flush appeared on Grand Emperor Long Yuan’s face. He no longer had a way out, and neither did the Divine Palace of Bemond.

“Fight to the death!”

Without any hesitation, Grand Emperor Long Yuan gave the order to fight to the death!

In the past, he had retreated all the way from the border to the Divine Palace of Bemond. He had regretted it, felt guilty, and felt uneasy. But now, he had no reason to retreat anymore.

Behind them stood the Divine Palace of Bemond, Planet Bemond. Once this place was destroyed, the Divine Palace of Bemond would cease to exist.

At this moment, all the cultivators seemed to steel their conviction.

Grand Emperor Long Yuan arrived in front of the colossal Silent Beast at once. Only he could hold off this strongest Silent Beast for a while.

However, he was not confident in defeating it. Even if he risked his life, he probably would not be able to repel this Silent Beast.

A great battle erupted instantly. Endless Silent Beasts charged towards the Divine Palace of Bemond. Countless cultivators went all out at this moment, trying their best to stop them.

In the cosmos, this was a strangling battle. Innumerable cultivators fell, and innumerable corpses of the Silent Beasts were left in the aftermath. However, the Silent Beasts were infinite, and the number of cultivators in the Divine Palace of Bemond only dwindled.

Grand Emperor Long Yuan could only work hard to restrain this colossal Silent Beast. However, the other party’s massive combat body of 40 light-years gave Grand Emperor Long Yuan immense pressure.

Even though he had already taken all the precautions he could, he was still injured, and severely so.

After a few head-on clashes, Grand Emperor Long Yuan’s combat body suffered a certain degree of damage. This damage slowly accumulated, and finally became severe injuries.

On the other hand, the more this colossal Silent Beast fought, the more ferocious it became. Moreover, the injuries on its body were insignificant. No matter how much damage Grand Emperor Long Yuan dealt this colossal Silent Beast, it could recover rapidly.

This terrifying regenerative ability almost made Grand Emperor Long Yuan despair.

Grand Emperor Long Yuan looked around. The number of cultivators in the Divine Palace was diminishing. Moreover, he saw that three Grand Emperors from the Divine Palace of Bemond had fallen.

Those were Grand Emperors. Every one of them was a rare and precious mainstay of the Divine Palace!

But now, three Grand Emperors had fallen, and as time passed, even he might fall.

“Your Majesty, Long Yuan has failed you…”

Grand Emperor Long Yuan had never felt so guilty and reproachful of himself. Before Divine King Bemond left, he handed the Divine Palace of Bemond over to Grand Emperor Long Yuan.

But now, everything was destroyed. The Divine Palace might be destroyed in the next moment. All the cultivators and Grand Emperors here probably would not be able to escape death.

“Forget it. We should preserve some hope for the future. Those who can run, run. The Divine Palace is finished…”

Grand Emperor Long Yuan laughed aloud with a pale face. At the same time, his combat body expanded wildly. He was going to put his life on the line. Anyone could leave, except for him!

“Your Highness Long Yuan…”

Many cultivators were shocked. The Divine Palace was finished? They did not believe it. How could the Divine Palace of Bemond, presided over by a Divine King, be finished? They only needed to hold out until the Divine King returned. Then, the Divine Palace of Bemond would naturally be able to restore its prestige.

Unfortunately, the Divine King had not returned. Perhaps by the time the Divine King returned, the Divine Palace would be long gone.

Grand Emperor Long Yuan no longer held any hope. Everyone stared blankly at the cosmos. There were no miracles, only more and more Silent Beasts.

Buzz.

Suddenly, traces of spatial ripples appeared in the cosmos.

At a time like this, when spatial ripples appeared on such an intense battlefield, who was warping space?

Those who could warp space were all cultivators who had comprehended the Law of Space. Could it be the Divine King?

Although the Divine King had not comprehended the Law of Space, it would not be difficult for a Divine King to warp space with his powerful strength.

Swoosh.

A figure flew out of the spatial passage. When he saw the scene in front of him, however, he was stunned.
