Han Jiangxue tried to activate Shattered Space, only to find that it could be activated here as well. It seemed to be a miniature but complete other-dimensional space, where all kinds of star techniques could be used.

Han Jiangxue took out a handful of silver-quality Savage Star Beads, stuffed them into Jiang Xiao's hands, and incidentally pulled him back to reality from his beautiful vision, saying, "Try if your Space-Time Rift can teleport people."

"Okay." Jiang Xiao filled himself with star power, held a Star Bead in one hand, and Han Jiangxue's hand in the other. Using Space-Time Rift again, he was much more skilled than the first time.

Han Jiangxue's eyes blurred, and her hand loosened.

In the distance, near the landmark-like stone pillar in the center of the Calamity Shadow Ruins, Jiang Xiao's figure quietly appeared.

Beside him, a Flame Imp was startled and sat down on its butt.

Jiang Xiao clutched the Star Beads and absorbed them. Several Savage Star Beads shattered, and starlight scattered from his hands.

Jiang Xiao's expression was not good. They both realized that Space-Time Rift could not teleport people.

Jiang Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, according to the plan, you stay here."

Han Jiangxue: "Little Pi..."

Jiang Xiao interrupted Han Jiangxue and connected to her body again with the Light of Reverse Flow, saying, "I can teleport, and with the lure's help, nothing will go wrong. Those are all platinum-level god-tier creatures with physical qualities several levels stronger than ours. If you follow me, it will be difficult for us to escape, whether we run or fly."

Han Jiangxue sighed deeply. She understood the logic, but she really wanted to protect him.

Jiang Xiao walked back to Han Jiangxue's side, stood in front of her, and put away his usual cheeky appearance. His face was rarely so serious. He said, "Believe me."

"Okay." Han Jiangxue looked into Jiang Xiao's earnest eyes and nodded gently.

She took out another handful of Star Beads from Shattered Space and handed them to Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao picked out a few high-quality, precious Star Beads from them, handed them back to her, and without another word, turned and walked out of the space gate.

Han Jiangxue silently watched his departing figure, *shua*...

The figure disappeared, and the shattered mirror gate disappeared with it.

In the vast universe, under the dim starlight, she was left alone.

Han Jiangxue slowly sat down, listening to the strange sounds of the surrounding Little Flame Imps. She gently waved her hand, and the Little Flame Imps turned into starlight and dissipated.

The Calamity Shadow Ruins also fell into darkness.

...

Jiang Xiao and the lure Jiang Xiao clung to the stone and soil of the cave entrance. Both "people" had their own brains, and Jiang Xiao couldn't be said to be controlling the lure. Moreover, the two "people" had the same thoughts, so there was no so-called communication or exchange.

They pried open the stone and soil, and the rumbling sound grew louder and louder. The lure went first, and through the lure's perspective, Jiang Xiao was shocked to find that this was no longer a scene of natural disaster that a single Giant Demon Pyro Master could create. This should be a group battle!

A group battle of platinum-level creatures could easily reach the epic level.

What kind of battle was this? What kind of hunting was this?

This was already a war...

Jiang Xiao even saw "Two-Tails."

To be precise, it was Two-Tails' "Lava Dance."

In the far distance, on the undulating hills, huge firestorms could be seen rising from the ground everywhere. The thick firestorms blocked the lure Jiang Xiao's sight, making it impossible to see what the creatures inside looked like.

However, in some of the huge firestorms, a few huge black shadows could occasionally be seen, and screams came from there as well. Presumably, it might be a pair of Giant Demon lovers being burned to death.

Obviously, in addition to the Giant Demon Pyro Masters, Giant Demon Pyro Warriors, and Giant Demon Pyro Maids, the last type of creature in the Pyro Judgment Grounds, the Giant Demon Pyro Fusion, which had never appeared, finally appeared on the battlefield.

This was really unstoppable!

Looking around, a large number of Giant Demon couples were crawling around, constantly rushing to the scene upon hearing the news and gathering here. They created the least spectacular scenes, but their numbers were the largest.

Once the Giant Demon Pyro Master used this spectacular natural disaster star technique, all kinds of creatures in the surrounding area were attracted, and the scene became even more out of control.

At the same time, back on Earth.

Strong soldiers in various clothes gathered in front of the portal. Although their clothes were not uniform, the colors were mostly brownish-yellow and brownish-gray. Several soldiers were wearing desert camouflage directly, so it was clear that they were a special team.

An other-dimensional space had suddenly opened in the middle of Jiangbin City's Central Street, but at that time, only one pioneering team had come.

But here, at least five pioneering teams had gathered!

A middle-aged man, panting heavily and looking quite embarrassed, said, "Team Leader Liu, I've seen it. This is no longer a battle we can stop. It has escalated to a war level. We must immediately go in and find the Holy Ruins. If we delay any longer, the scene will only get bigger and bigger, and we may not even be able to defend this portal."

Team Leader Liu Chenle's expression was calm. After receiving the report, they immediately rushed to the scene, listened to the situation on the ground, and also sent a combat scout to investigate the situation. The news they received was not optimistic.

Liu Chenle said, "Did you see those two children?"

The man shook his head and said, "It's too chaotic. I can't find them at all. With this level of war, I'm afraid..."

Liu Chenle pondered for a moment and said, "All combat scouts, including Star Warriors with stealth-type star techniques, gather in front of me."

*Shua shua shua*, several men and women walked out.

Liu Chenle looked at the group and ordered, "After entering, quickly leave the battlefield. Do not let any creatures discover your tracks. The creatures in the Pyro Judgment Grounds do not have perception-type star techniques. You only need to be careful not to get hurt."

Liu Chenle suddenly raised a finger and said, "If, and I mean if, you are discovered, quickly regroup with us. As much as possible, lure the battlefield away from the space portal. Even if you die, you must die inside. There is no retreat. You are absolutely not allowed to escape back to the portal. You are absolutely not allowed to lead the Star Beasts to Earth!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

In fact, the pioneering soldiers all knew the characteristics of the Star Beasts in the Pyro Judgment Grounds. In this kind of war, it would be difficult to shift the battlefield with just a few soldiers. Not to mention shifting it, it was questionable whether they could survive a few rounds in the chaotic battlefield.

"Other combat scouts who leave the battlefield, scatter and search for the Holy Ruins. After discovering the Holy Ruins, there is no need to report. Destroy them directly! Keep communications open and information equal!"

Liu Chenle's face was strained, and he shouted loudly, "The rest of the pioneering teams, assemble! All Triumphant Army members present! Temporarily requisitioned, assemble! Keep the team configuration unchanged. I will be the commander-in-chief and go in with you to see the combat scout brothers off!"

The students of the Imperial Capital Star Martial University were dumbfounded. What did he mean by seeing the combat scout brothers off?

Team Leader Liu had just said that there was no retreat. Could they retreat?

Impossible! They would attract the attention of the Star Beasts, and then they would get farther and farther away from the portal. They would do their best to consciously shift the battlefield, trying to ensure that no creatures would slip into Earth through the portal.

What would their end be? The students did not dare to think about it. Those... were all platinum-level creatures.

One or two, or even seven or eight, would be fine, but how many platinum Star Beasts would a war-level scene gather?

Liu Chenle looked at Teacher Fang Xingyun and said, "Protect the students, guard the school gate. The next batch of reinforcements will arrive soon. We don't have time to wait. Take care."

Fang Xingyun's hair was disheveled, and she was supporting the space gate. She also knew what these soldiers were going to do.

It was because of these people that there was a prosperous and peaceful China.

Such things might be happening all the time, but here, the teachers and students had seen it.

If it weren't for the Pyro Judgment Grounds, if it were like in the past, just opening Black Rock Mountain and Fire Source Mountain Range, maybe these soldiers could all go home.

Fang Xingyun was a sentimental person. She looked at the teams of soldiers who were quickly assembling, their faces resolute, and said in a trembling voice, "Take care. I hope you return safely."

"Teacher Fang, after they go in, let me take over. You rest for a while." An old man with white hair came over and gently patted Fang Xingyun's shoulder.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Ding Yi." Fang Xingyun nodded.

Teams of desert camouflage and reflective military uniforms of pioneers and triumphant members came behind Fang Xingyun, but this time, they might not be able to triumph again.

Fang Xingyun quickly closed her space gate. A young soldier in desert camouflage gathered starlight in his hand, and a huge star power shock wave blasted into it, shattering mountains and rocks, and completely launched this battle of no return.

The pioneering soldiers and the Triumphant Legion swarmed in and stepped into this fiery battlefield.

Beside them, ghostly figures scattered and moved towards the end of this unknown world.

Teams of people quickly moved eastward, with large shields and buffs. Each team used their own special skills to attract the attention of all the Star Beasts nearby.

And before Fang Xingyun closed her space gate, in the ten seconds before the pioneering army and the Triumphant Army entered the Pyro Judgment Grounds.

Ten seconds earlier:

The lure Jiang Xiao stood on the hill, carefully observing the battlefield.

He did not cherish life, and there was no such thing as attracting attention in this chaotic scene. He was like a field of vision, a field of vision that Jiang Xiao had planted high up.

The two "people" had the same thoughts and shared vision.

Jiang Xiao seized the opportunity and ran out quickly, without even looking at the hill on the right, and threw a Silence skill over there.

The next moment, the Light of Reverse Flow connected to the Giant Demon Pyro Warrior.

Under the big water pipe, star power was instantly refilled.

Space-Time Rift, go!

Jiang Xiao's figure flickered like a TV image with unstable signal reception, and quickly disappeared.

The moment he landed, he directly absorbed a handful of Star Beads. In front of him was the portal to the Pyro Judgment Grounds, only one step away from Earth.

*Ci!*

Sharp and thick dark red claws pierced the lure Jiang Xiao's heart on the hill. At this last moment, the lure Jiang Xiao transmitted the last critical piece of information, and then turned into a group of stars and scattered on the ground.

Jiang Xiao in front of the portal seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He suddenly kicked backward, using the star power he had just recovered, and a huge meteorite that was attacking from the rear was kicked away.

And Jiang Xiao plunged into the space gate.

At the same time, Fang Xingyun quickly closed the space gate that was close to the Pyro Judgment Grounds.

Jiang Xiao's figure disappeared. The next second, a thick star power shock wave blasted out of the portal, and then teams of people arrived.

...

Jiang Xiao plunged into a group of meteorites. He propped himself up on a huge meteorite, looking around in confusion.

Why... isn't this the small road at the south gate of the school?

Why is it different from what I imagined?

Jiang Xiao quickly turned his head, only to see the moment the space gate contracted and disappeared.

"Glub." Jiang Xiao's Adam's apple wriggled.

Looking up, it was the vast universe and the dim sky.

Underground, there were piles of broken meteorites of various sizes.

In the distance, there were several gray-white stone pillars standing tall, thick at both ends, thin in the middle, with pitted circles on top.

Looking further afield, Jiang Xiao even saw the familiar gray-white stone ground.

This is... the Calamity Shadow Ruins?

Jiang Xiao was very sure that he had not activated the Calamity Shadow Ruins. He had just used Space-Time Rift and a Green Glow, and his star power was exhausted. There was no remaining star power to activate it!

Where... am I?
