As the words fell, the people from the Lingluo Domain, along with the cultivators of the Wind Domain, launched their first wave of attacks towards Ye Yun and his group.
Melee sword strikes and ranged spell bombardments descended like a torrent of rain, relentlessly smashing against the colorful light screen.
The continuous explosions caused the entire colored barrier to shake violently!
Everyone inside endured immense pressure but gritted their teeth and held on.
This scene bore a striking resemblance to their earlier encounter with the Minotaur tribe.
The similarity was so profound that Qian Kong felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.
"Hmm, that guy..."
As Qian Kong finished his attack and gazed at Ye Yun, who stood at the center within the vibrant light screen, a foreboding premonition began to stir within him.
After the onslaught of attacks, the colorful light barrier, conjured by the Lingluo Domain's cultivators, remained unbroken.
However, numerous fine cracks had indeed appeared on its surface.
It was evident that even with their full defensive might, under such absolute power suppression, they could not hold out for long.
Yet, for some inexplicable reason, Qian Kong felt a growing unease...
"Don't hold back, reveal whatever trump cards you have. That guy likely has some means to turn the tide!"
Qian Kong could no longer afford to be cautious. He immediately shouted at Feng Lin and his attacking party, as well as his own forces.
To be honest, only those who had directly confronted Ye Yun understood the extent of his threat.
He did not want his own people to suffer the same fate as the previous Minotaur monster, being caught off guard and wiped out in a single blow!
Upon hearing this, Feng Lin was initially skeptical, finding his panicked demeanor somewhat amusing.
"He's just a Star God level cultivator. Even with a high-tier divine artifact, he can't possibly turn the heavens upside down!"
He said this, of course.
But the moment Ye Yun produced a treasure, Feng Lin's mocking words froze on his lips.
There, at the center of the defense, Ye Yun slightly raised his hand and produced a peculiar banner.
To be precise, it was a golden banner that resembled a battle standard, adorned with a strange pattern.
From its appearance, it might have seemed like merely a decorative flag. However, those among them with keen senses, the Star God and Celestial God level powerhouses, felt its extraordinary nature.
As the golden banner appeared, an aura as if from the ancient primordial era swept out, instantly engulfing the entire space within the blood-colored formation!
This was not all; the terrifying aura surged towards the heavens, rapidly enveloping the entire area within a hundred thousand leagues of the Beiguang Domain!
And this was merely the oppressive aura it exuded upon its appearance.
As Ye Yun extended his hand and gently caressed the flagpole, his divine power flowed continuously into it.
The oppressive sensation emanating from the golden banner intensified at an exponential rate.
This spectacle both invigorated and shocked the Lingluo Domain cultivators protecting Ye Yun.
Simultaneously, it terrified the attacking forces of the Wind and Qian Yuan Domains.
"What terrifying power! What is that thing? A divine artifact?"
Qian Kong had initially thought that the golden cross Ye Yun had previously summoned already possessed an awe-inspiring aura.
But compared to the golden banner now before them, it was like a dim glow against the bright moon!
Feng Lin and his companions were also rendered speechless by the sheer magnificence.
Finally, Qian Kong, reacting the quickest, let out a furious roar.
"Why are you still standing there like fools?! Attack with all your might, or we will be the ones to die!"
Although they couldn't identify the divine artifact Ye Yun was using, nor could they even guess its effects.
But given the heaven-shattering divine power being unleashed at this moment, if this artifact possessed any offensive capabilities, they were all doomed.
Upon hearing his words, Feng Lin, jolted awake, also roared at her own people.
"Full power! Kill him!"
With that, she was the first to strike.
On the short blade in her palm, black mist coalesced into substance, and black lightning crackled around it, emanating a fierce killing intent.
Seeing the dire situation, the others dared not hold back, unleashing their ultimate attack methods one after another!
Qian Kong surged forward at the forefront, joining Feng Lin and a host of Celestial God level powerhouses in a coordinated assault on Ye Yun!
No matter what, they had to kill him before he could complete his divine power infusion!
"Attention! Full defense!"
Seeing this, Qian Ling also issued a death order to her own people.
The divine artifact Ye Yun had revealed far surpassed her imagination, further solidifying her belief in his earlier words.
Life or death now rested solely on their own efforts!
The cultivators of the Lingluo Domain poured all their divine power into their defense, repelling the onslaught of attacks.
The forces of both sides clashed and intertwined. The immense divine power caused the entire Beiguang Domain, the very star beneath their feet, to tremble violently, as if on the verge of disintegration.
Furthermore, due to the overwhelmingly powerful energy impact, the surrounding flow of time began to compress.
The colored light screen was continuously torn open, only to be forcibly repaired.
However, Ye Yun's side was simply outnumbered. The speed of defensive repair was far outpaced by the external destruction.
The colorful barrier was cracking at a visible rate...
And time was running out, ticking down.
Eighteen... seventeen... sixteen...
Seven... six... five...
Ye Yun and his group were also fighting desperately. This ninth-tier divine artifact demanded an astonishing output of basic divine power.
Activating it for a maximum of half a minute was already the fastest activation time Ye Yun had ever managed!
Completion of activation was within reach, but at that very moment, Qian Kong could no longer hold back and unleashed his trump card.
"I'm going all out! Star Talisman, detonate!"
In his palm, a dark golden talisman materialized, etched with complex patterns.
Upon its appearance, an aura of destruction swept outwards.
This was originally a final trump card bestowed by the Star Lord, to be used only in moments of life and death.
But now, this was undoubtedly a battle for survival.
He raised his hand and unleashed it. A dark golden meteor streaked out, carrying an aura of destruction, and instantly arrived at the already shattered colored light screen.
Then, the Star Talisman detonated, unleashing a torrent of divine power that directly shattered the light screen, which was already at its limit.
With their defense broken, the Lingluo Domain cultivators were all subjected to backlash, crying out in pain as they were flung to the ground. Only Ye Yun remained standing, banner in hand.
"It's done!"
Seeing their success, the attackers impatiently unleashed their assault.
Powerful attacks rained down once more, and this time, their sole target was Ye Yun!
Witnessing this, though time was running short, Ye Yun had no other choice but to take a gamble!
Ye Yun raised the banner high and began to chant.
"Hark, fallen ancient ages lamenting in twilight, and re-emerge with your eternal glory—Goddess of War!"
The primary purpose of this so-called Banner of Myriad Gods was to summon, or rather, to recreate, the deities recorded within the banner!
As the words fell, infinite golden light surged from the banner, constructing a resplendent, golden silhouette before Ye Yun.
A holy and noble woman stepped forth from the golden light, clad in a sacred white cloak, wearing a golden and white crown, and slowly opened her pair of mysterious golden eyes.
The divine silhouette moved directly to Ye Yun's side, extended a hand to his front, and with immense presence, spoke with a bowed head.
"My Lord, what is your divine decree?"
