In the city, at the center of the ground battlefield.

A massive rock snake, with a body as gigantic as a mountain and unbreakable, wreaked havoc on the surrounding Earth warriors.

This rock snake's Biological Level had reached the peak of Epic Ninth Order, just one step away from evolving into a Legendary Level Creature.

With just the movement of its massive body, it could destroy everything in its path, its power of destruction immense.

In the center of the battlefield, many Earth warriors died from its lethal tail swipes, crushed into a mass of bloody pulp, beyond any hope of regeneration and repair.

"Retreat!"

"Quick, retreat!"

"Don't face it head-on!"

An Epic Ninth Order Earth warrior did his utmost to block the rock snake's tail sweeps while shouting to the others who were engaging the snake.

The rock snake's Biological Level was simply too high, and it was especially known for its defense.

Those with lower Biological Levels could hardly cause it any effective damage.

In such a case, besieging it became meaningless.

The best option at the moment was to quickly distance themselves from this indestructible rock snake and avoid a direct confrontation.

As for the immovable structures in the city, they could only be continuously swept away and destroyed by the snake's vast body, turning into rubble and ruins.

But that no longer mattered.

With such a large-scale battle erupting.

The city was definitely indefensible.

Let the buildings collapse as they may.

As long as people survived, that was enough.

However, a rock snake with a Biological Level as high as Epic Ninth Order Great Perfection, if it was determined to kill, those with lower levels could do nothing to escape.

In just a moment, numerous slower individuals were overtaken and knocked down by the pursuing rock snake's tail.

Their bodies were ground into a mass of bloody pulp by the heavy stone tail, left on the battlefield forever, turning into resentful spirits.

"Those with Biometric Attributes above Epic Level, do not retreat, come back and stop this rock snake from advancing!"

The same Epic Ninth Order Earth warrior who had just urged everyone to retreat quickly, seeing a large number of lower-level compatriots crushed into a mass of pulp by the rock snake, instantly erupted with Qi-Blood and shouted out this command.

As soon as the words were out, he turned around and charged back, ready to be the first to lay down his life to stop the rock snake from harming his fellow warriors.

Following his lead, many more Epic Level Earth warriors went back into the fray.

These Earth warriors didn't hesitate at all, sacrificing their Qi-Blood to temporarily boost their own strength significantly, to fight against that overwhelmingly powerful rock snake.

Even though sacrificing Essence Blood could severely damage their potential for Evolution.

Yet, to save more lives, these Epic Level Earth warriors didn't care about sacrificing their chance of Evolution.

Everything has its extreme dual nature.

If there are traitors who would sacrifice the interests of the Human Race to get Evolution Resources, conversely, there will also be heroes willing to sacrifice the self for the greater good.

"Bang!"

A loud crash resounded.

The next second, a figure flew backwards at great speed from ahead, slamming into the ground with a thud, sending dust flying into the air.

After a moment, the dust cleared.

A deep crater with cracks was left on the ground.

In the center of the crater lay a man covered in blood, barely clinging to life.

On closer inspection, it turned out to be the same Epic Ninth Order Earth warrior who had led the charge against the rock snake.

He, who belonged to the second-tier strength within the city, had been defeated by the rock snake in a single encounter, losing all combat capacity.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Soon, a series of similar sounds followed.

Several more figures were thrown backward, slamming into the ground one after another, bursting into a cloud of blood, seeping into the ground, gone for good.

Those who fell had only low Epic Level Biological Attributes and simply could not withstand the rock snake's full-powered strike, imbued with Origin Force.

"We can't hold it off!"

"Retreat!"

"Don't sacrifice yourselves in vain!"

Seeing those in front being killed by the rock snake in an instant, those behind decided to retreat decisively, refusing to die needlessly.

The rock snake seemed to activate some ability.

A deep blue light radiated from its entire body.

Its head split into eight.

It became a serpent with eight heads.

After that, its power, speed, defense, and other Biometric Attributes all surged dramatically.

Even a casual strike gravely injured the Epic Ninth Order Earth warriors.

They weren't even given a chance to put up a fight.

While the Epic Level Earth warriors retreated, the eight-headed rock snake suddenly stopped pursuing them; it stood straight from its seventh cervical vertebra above the ground, aiming its eight ferocious heads at those retreating Earth warriors.

"Roar... Roar... Roar..."

Engine-like roars started to fill the air.

From the mouths of the eight heads, a blinding deep blue light began to glow.

As the light grew brighter and brighter...

The next second!

Eight terrifying energy beams shot out from the mouths of the serpent, targeting those retreating Epic Level Earth warriors.

Everything they touched was instantly vaporized, even the air was obliterated into nothingness.

Two of the Epic Level Earth warriors were unlucky enough to be hit directly by the energy beams and were annihilated into nothingness, not even a trace of Qi-Blood left behind.

One of the Epic Level Earth warriors had his right arm grazed by the energy beam, instantly vaporizing half his flesh, unable to regenerate or repair, becoming a disabled one-armed man for life.

The remaining Epic Level Earth warriors lucky enough to avoid the disaster trembled uncontrollably, filled with fear from deep within their hearts.
