Chapter 833: One-on-One Challenge with the World
The Hidden Sect Plane collapsed, the Kunlun Death Valley sank and cracked, the snow-capped mountains crumbled, and the sky and earth shattered.
The Imperial City also became a wasteland.
The whole city was in ruins, as if the apocalypse had descended.
Throughout the Great Divine Continent, there were crustal movements in many places, with violent winds, torrential rains, mountain floods, and earthquakes, with disasters continuing unabated.
Centered around Kunlun Mountain and the Imperial City, the destruction extended outward, severely damaging roads, communications, and other infrastructure.
Even satellite monitoring was affected to a certain extent, with many images unable to be captured.
In Jiangbei County, in the temporary highest command center of the Divine Continent Country, Qin Yanyang looked at the satellite images being transmitted back, his expression grave and full of worry.
As of now, Yang Fei has not returned, and the satellite footage of the Hidden Sect collapse did not capture Yang Fei's figure.
Her heart was wracked with pain.
However, military intelligence from Japan and the Western Alliance forced her to rally her spirits.
During this time, Japan had already initiated war, and now the East Asian Countries had all fallen.
Now with the collapse of the Hidden Sect Plane, the Divine Continent is suffering a great calamity, and Japan alongside the Western Alliance led by Heaven has finally shown their fangs and began to stir trouble.
The situation facing the Divine Continent this time is even more difficult than a century ago. The reference version of this chapter is on M*V*LEMPYR.
Yet this time, the Divine Continent was prepared.
The leadership led by the Qin Family are all people willing to fight hard battles, and no one backs down.
"Eastern Combat Zone, Western War Zone, Southern Combat Zone, and Northern Combat Zone, each leader listen up: at all costs, resolutely repulse the invading enemy outside the national gates."
Qin Yanyang connected with the highest commanders of the four major combat zones from the supreme command center, her eyes gleaming, and said, "If the enemy wants to annihilate our Divine Continent family line, then we will flip the table. If everything is to be destroyed, then let's all be destroyed together."
"Eastern Combat Zone received!"
"Western War Zone received!"
"Southern Combat Zone received!"
"Northern Combat Zone received!"
Since the Chu Family incident, the Divine Continent reunited as one, and now, facing a moment of annihilation, no one falters, everyone unites with one heart against the external threat.
Thus, on the day of the Hidden Sect Plane's collapse, upon provocation by the enemy, all four directions of the Divine Continent, southeast, southwest, west, and north, launched counterattacks.
As a world-recognized industrialized nation, the Divine Continent's reserved weaponry finally found its use, with fighter jets, drone swarms, long-range nuclear strikes, and various modern weapons all being deployed to the battlefield.
The antagonistic forces from the West led by Heaven and the Penglai Realm did not expect the Divine Continent to strike immediately, catching them off guard. Without stepping into the borders of the Divine Continent Country, their first wave of attacks ended in failure.
Not only that, the appearance of the Divine Continent's long-range nuclear strikes also posed a great threat to global leaders, causing widespread discontent, with people taking to the streets protesting against the outbreak of full-scale war.
The top echelons of Heaven and the Penglai Realm were also stunned.
They did not expect the Divine Continent to adopt such a desperate, mutually destructive fighting style.
Most importantly, they underestimated the current war capabilities of the Divine Continent.
After their entire first wave of attacks collapsed, they realized that the Divine Continent Country had developed a formidable force capable of single-handedly confronting global invasions.
Nobody expected that after experiencing the humiliation of a century ago, the Divine Continent Country had already planted the seeds to single-handedly challenge the entire world.
The current Divine Continent Country does not fear war and is constantly ready to single-handedly confront the world.
On this day, above the Divine Continent, with the collapse of the Hidden Sect Plane, calamities descended upon the land of the Divine Continent.
But these disasters were borne together by countries around the world.
At this most critical moment, the Divine Continent, with the strength of a single nation, repelled the invasion by the allied forces, inflicting heavy losses on the coalition, and some countries even suffered long-range nuclear strikes by the Divine Continent, causing great panic.
Late at night, as the dominant forces of the Penglai Realm and Heaven continued their attacks on the Divine Continent, even attempting to deploy nuclear weapons, the Divine Continent's initiated anti-nuclear weapon interception system displayed great power, preventing many of the enemy's weapons from reaching the land of the Divine Continent.
Not only that, but after suffering such nuclear weapon deployment strikes, the Divine Continent also put everything on the line, directly launching the most frenzied nuclear weapon strikes against Japan.
Though Japan also had defense systems, they could not withstand the Divine Continent Country's barrage of nuclear weapon assaults, resulting in multiple areas of the home islands being bombarded, with extensive damage.
That night, people around the globe trembled with fear.
Such an extent of warfare was truly terrifying; only at the beginning did it already give a sense of apocalypse and global destruction.
The Divine Continent Country's desperate, mutually destructive fierceness shocked the world.
The high officials of Heaven and the Penglai Realm were intimidated by the Divine Continent Country's aura and especially their combat capabilities.
No one expected that in just a few decades, the Divine Continent Country had developed the power to single-handedly challenge the world in a short time.
Though it is unclear how long this capability can last, after this battle, everyone believed that the Divine Continent Country possessed the strength to drag the entire world down with them.
At the same time, opposition voices from the Western Alliance and various major forces in the mortal world of the Penglai Realm forced the high officials of Heaven and the Penglai Realm to take notice.
The battle cannot continue like this.
Otherwise, Earth will be destroyed.
The essence of war is about distributing interests and competing for power.
If Earth is no more, what's left to play!
Thus, early the next morning, the Western Allied forces and the Japanese corps retreated, both sides reaching out to the Divine Continent Country, proposing a ceasefire.
The high officials of the Divine Continent were all invigorated upon receiving this news.
Most people secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while a few war hawks were dissatisfied, clamoring for a proactive attack.
Why should the enemy fight at will and ceasefire at will?
The initiative should be in the hands of the Divine Continent Country.
Inside the Divine Continent, after intense discussions, it was finally decided to agree to a ceasefire for the sake of world peace, but with conditions.
That is, the countries that participated in the invasion must compensate the Divine Continent Country.
How the great powers took things from the Divine Continent a hundred years ago, must now be returned in the same way.
Thus, negotiations began.
Three days later, Qin Yanyang left Jiangnan County.
Heaven and Penglai had agreed to compensation, although the amount of compensation and other details were still being negotiated.
Globally, peace was restored, and as for the various disasters caused by the collapse of the Hidden Sect Plane on the land of the Divine Continent, due to thorough preparations, they were handled and addressed properly.
Now, Qin Yanyang's only focus was on Yang Fei.
She was going to the already ruined Imperial City to find Yang Fei, hoping to see him alive, or at least find his body if not.
On the southwestern edge of the Imperial City, a helicopter gradually approached, piloted by Xiang Yunfei, accompanied by Hu Lizhong and Zhu Tianshou sitting beside Qin Yanyang.
Originally, Qin Yanyang intended to come alone, but Hu Lizhong was very concerned about Yang Fei and insisted on coming along, while Zhu Tianshou was there both to find Yang Fei and to search for his granddaughter Tong Yunshu.
