Chapter 157 The Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast

These extraordinary beings were well-trained, belonging to the totem legions of various totem kingdoms.

Their objective was simple: to completely occupy the Rongcheng Base City and turn the humans within into slaves and believers.

Human believers generated the highest faith power, which was the reason the quasi-god level beings behind these extraordinary creatures had intervened.

Plundering faith and collecting faith power could accelerate their ascension to demigod status.

However, these quasi-god level beings had not revealed themselves.

The strongest among the extraordinary beings attacking Rongcheng Base City were only at the totem level.

These dense masses of extraordinary beings moved swiftly, fiercely attacking the Steel Great Wall of Rongcheng Base City.

Various advanced weapons were mounted on the Steel Great Wall.

Without human operation, these weapons automatically locked onto the charging extraordinary beings and opened fire.

Volleys of bullets rained down.

Artillery shells also poured down.

Yet, it was not enough.

The corpses of a large number of extraordinary beings fell, and even more surged forward.

Ordinary weapons proved ineffective, so a large number of laser weapons were deployed.

Simultaneously, various forbidden bombs were unleashed like a torrential downpour.

Boom...

Explosions erupted one after another.

Even the totem-level extraordinary beings could not withstand such intense explosions and fell to the ground.

Rongcheng Base City achieved a brief victory, but soon, more extraordinary beings swarmed in.

These extraordinary beings were numerous, seemingly endless, impossible to eradicate.

Their reproduction rate surpassed that of humans, they occupied more territory than humans, and their numbers were tens, even hundreds, of times greater than humans.

Without robots and a vast array of intelligent weapons, humanity would be unable to withstand their onslaught.

Zheng Dong arrived above Rongcheng Base City.

The former Rongcheng had been completely destroyed.

Zheng Dong's home, his villa that he had barely lived in, was also gone.

The original Rongcheng had been overrun by various plants and animals, and it would soon revert to its primitive state, making it difficult to find traces of human activity.

The newly constructed Rongcheng Base City accommodated the entire population of Rongcheng and its surrounding cities.

It was built over a vast area and designed as a vertical city.

Both above and below ground were habitable, with dedicated bases for planting and animal husbandry to ensure the normal living needs of the humans residing within the base city.

Of course, there were also divisions of labor here.

Beast tamers enjoyed much better treatment than ordinary people.

Ordinary people also had the opportunity to try becoming beast tamers, but it required the use of special potions.

Each potion was very expensive, making it difficult for ordinary people to afford.

Currently, with the extraordinary beings besieging Rongcheng Base City, the entire base city was under martial law, making it difficult to enter.

Previously, one could enter simply by presenting an identification card and confirming one's identity.

Now, the entrances were closed, and the defensive barrier was activated. It was impossible to allow a single person to enter while keeping the defensive barrier closed.

This meant that for Zheng Dong to enter Rongcheng Base City, he would have to wait for these extraordinary beings to cease their attack.

Zheng Dong piloted the warship transformed by Jingjing, circling outside Rongcheng Base City.

Of course, he did not approach too closely, lest he be accidentally injured without recourse.

Zheng Dong had Jingjing attempt to connect to Rongcheng Base City's network, hoping to obtain information on the current situation.

Jingjing quickly connected to Rongcheng Base City's network. The base city was currently overcrowded, with a population exceeding its design capacity, reaching one hundred and twenty million.

This made Rongcheng Base City extremely crowded, and many people's quality of life was not guaranteed.

However, in the current environment, being alive was fortunate enough.

Therefore, no one complained.

Unless, of course, one owned a mine and built their own survival base.

The Yanhuang Empire also permitted this.

The environment within private survival bases was naturally better, but ordinary people entering them would mostly have to work tirelessly day and night.

Furthermore, with the current capabilities of the Security Bureau, managing private survival bases was beyond their reach.

This meant that the owners of private survival bases could decide everything within their bases.

Yet, even so, many were willing to sign contracts and live within them.

Various prominent families had built their own survival bases, and the Vulcan Cult had also established one.

As for the Spirit God Cult, they likely had one as well, though Zheng Dong had not found any relevant information.

He also had not found out where Shen Bing and Shen Xue went after returning, following Shen Jiuxiao.

However, Wei Yi had sent him a message, informing him of a secret base belonging to the Vulcan Cult.

If Zheng Dong was interested, he could visit it.

Wei Yi's intention was to understand Zheng Dong's current physical condition and determine if further experiments could be conducted.

Zheng Dong naturally had no intention of participating in further experiments.

After all, having cultivated the Nether God Body, there was no need for him to participate in experiments.

However, he could acquire more bloodline power through the Vulcan Cult.

But, for now, he had not replied to Wei Yi.

He planned to contact Wei Yi after entering Rongcheng Base City.

Through Jingjing's network connection and information gathering, Zheng Dong gained a general understanding of Rongcheng Base City.

Currently, no divine forbidden bombs had been used.

Rongcheng Base City had a high tolerance for the attacks from the extraordinary beings outside, aiming to repel them with the least possible cost.

For this reason, many powerful weapons had not been deployed.

Not a single divine forbidden bomb had been used.

Because divine forbidden bombs were difficult to manufacture, each one had to be used judiciously, reserved for dealing with quasi-god level extraordinary beings.

Therefore, divine forbidden bombs would not be used unless quasi-god level extraordinary beings appeared.

The Elder Council of Yanhuang had issued an order to develop new, more effective divine forbidden bombs to counter the future appearance of more quasi-god level extraordinary beings and god-level extraordinary beings.

However, developing stronger divine forbidden bombs was estimated to take at least ten to eight years.

The Elder Council was also anxious about this.

Compared to Yanhuang's situation, other countries were faring worse.

The Xingye Kingdom had already fallen by more than half, occupied by surrounding totem kingdoms.

The Xue Island Kingdom was in an even worse state, having surrendered its entire nation to the Yamata no Orochi Totem Kingdom.

With the return of the mythical era, humanity's advantage in technological power would cease to exist.

Additionally, Zheng Dong also learned about the situation of Modu University.

Modu University had relocated to Modu Base City.

Modu Base City was built away from Modu, closer to Sucheng.

Furthermore, its construction area was larger than Rongcheng Base City, capable of accommodating more people, and its environment was naturally much better than Rongcheng Base City.

As for the totem kingdoms besieging Rongcheng Base City this time, they almost all came from other worlds.

After these other worlds descended, the various totem kingdoms engaged in mutual conflict, with many weaker totem kingdoms being annexed. The remaining few reached an agreement and decided to attack Rongcheng Base City.

These included the God-Devouring Totem Kingdom, the Azure Yellow Totem Kingdom, the Night Demon Totem Kingdom, and others, totaling thirty-six god-level extraordinary beings.

The strongest among them was the God-Devouring Beast of the God-Devouring Totem Kingdom.

The God-Devouring Beast's name was more intimidating than its actual appearance. It resembled a giant python but without a tail. Both its head and tail had terrifying mouths, seemingly capable of devouring anything.

It had also condensed a nascent divine spark, but it still had a long way to go to fully form its divine spark.

The Sky-Soaring Divine Eagle of the Azure Yellow Totem Kingdom was second only to the God-Devouring Beast in strength.

The Sky-Soaring Divine Eagle was massive; its wingspan resembled that of a starship.

However, what Zheng Dong found most noteworthy was the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast, a quasi-god level creature from the Night Demon Totem Kingdom.

The Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast was not very strong within the Night Demon Totem Kingdom, ranking only third in strength. However, its elusive attack methods were quite troublesome.

Zheng Dong paid attention to the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast because of the spherical magnetic field within his mythical-grade space.

The spherical magnetic field obtained from Sea Elephant Island had evolved over time and developed a weak consciousness.

Zheng Dong intended to cultivate it into an electromagnetic-type pet.

Using the life crystal of the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast to nurture it would undoubtedly allow it to grow rapidly.

Besides this, these totem kingdoms also possessed considerable resources.

It was rumored that the God-Devouring Totem Kingdom had a vein of Mimic Crystal Stone.

However, the God-Devouring Totem Kingdom did not use Mimic Crystal Stone extensively, nor did they mine it with great intensity.

The Mimic Crystal Stone they mined was sold to the Phoenix Empire, which was in the same other world as them.

The Phoenix Empire was primarily composed of beast tamers, with one-third of them possessing Phoenix bloodline.

Furthermore, the Phoenix Empire had over a dozen legendary beast tamers, three of whom had a Phoenix bloodline power that reached the quasi-god level.

This was also the reason why the Phoenix Empire had been able to contend with the God-Devouring Totem Kingdom.

The beast tamers of the Phoenix Empire used the acquired Mimic Crystal Stone, along with other metals, to forge Phoenix Armor.

The beast tamer legions wearing Phoenix Armor were more than three times stronger than ordinary beast tamer legions.

However, after the Phoenix Empire descended, it remained in a state of isolation and had not contacted Yanhuang or the surrounding totem kingdoms.

After Zheng Dong understood the general situation around him.

He decided to act against the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast first.

However, the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast had not appeared, and it was uncertain if it was participating in the current operation against Rongcheng Base City.

Zheng Dong condensed numerous clones, using mimicry to search for quasi-god level extraordinary beings hidden in the vicinity.

The clones Zheng Dong condensed were also very powerful.

Each possessed ninety percent of Zheng Dong's main body's strength.

They were perfectly capable of dealing with totem-level extraordinary beings.

Using them to gather intelligence was naturally no problem.

His clones, disguised as smaller extraordinary beings, infiltrated the attacking hordes of extraordinary beings, and soon located the hiding places of the quasi-god level extraordinary beings.

Several quasi-god level extraordinary beings, led by the God-Devouring Beast, were gathered in a large mountain not far from Rongcheng Base City.

The God-Devouring Beast had shrunk its body, appearing like an ordinary python coiled on a large tree.

In front of it was a quasi-god level Twin-Horned Night Demon.

The Night Demon had a somewhat human-like appearance, with dark green skin and glowing green eyes.

Unfortunately, the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast from the Night Demon Totem Kingdom was not seen.

There were only five quasi-god level extraordinary beings gathered here.

This was not difficult for Zheng Dong to handle.

He piloted the warship transformed by Jingjing to the top of the mountain.

Then, using spatial teleportation, he appeared directly before the several quasi-god level extraordinary beings.

Instantly, the God-Devouring Beast and other extraordinary beings were taken aback.

What is this thing?

How dare it appear here?

The Twin-Horned Night Demon was the first to recognize Zheng Dong's identity.

"Damn it, where did this beast tamer come from?"

The Twin-Horned Night Demon assumed they had been discovered and launched an attack.

It raised its Night Demon Club, covered in barbs, and swung it towards Zheng Dong's head.

It had to be said that the Twin-Horned Night Demon's speed was very fast.

Even Zheng Dong did not have time to dodge.

However, Zheng Dong did not need to dodge.

He allowed the Night Demon Club to fall, but his body remained unharmed. Instead, it grew several times larger. Using the Nether God Body, he appeared like a giant.

As for the Twin-Horned Night Demon's Night Demon Club, many of its hard barbs broke off.

Damn it, is this a beast tamer? His head is harder than a mountain!

Zheng Dong then launched his own attack.

His left hand blazed with fire, surrounded by the phantom of a Vermilion Bird.

His right hand churned with water, roaring with the phantom of a Azure Dragon.

With a single punch, he knocked down the quasi-god level Twin-Horned Night Demon.

This also angered the God-Devouring Beast and other extraordinary beings.

The God-Devouring Beast opened its mouth, revealing countless fangs, looking terrifying.

It lunged at Zheng Dong, seemingly intending to swallow him whole.

Unfortunately, Zheng Dong was even more brutal. He grabbed its mouth with both hands and tore it open forcefully.

The God-Devouring Beast's mouth was torn open by more than half.

The God-Devouring Beast roared in pain.

This was the first time it had suffered such a significant loss.

But this was just the beginning.

Next, Zheng Dong launched even more ferocious attacks on the God-Devouring Beast.

He grabbed the God-Devouring Beast and swung it like a giant rope towards the Twin-Horned Night Demon and other extraordinary beings.

The Twin-Horned Night Demon and other extraordinary beings could not withstand it and could only dodge.

The God-Devouring Beast striking the ground created a massive trench, which was quite terrifying.

The battle lasted for more than ten minutes and was captured by Yanhuang's satellites.

Xiao Lin Chuanyue and others within Rongcheng Base City then discovered that there were quasi-god level extraordinary beings hiding outside the base city.

Instantly, they felt fortunate.

If these extraordinary beings had not engaged in internal conflict, Rongcheng Base City would likely have been in trouble.

They did not recognize Zheng Dong, who was using the Nether God Body, and mistook him for a quasi-god level extraordinary being.

Zheng Dong naturally did not care about this; his actions were for the purpose of acquiring resources.

After severely wounding the God-Devouring Beast and other extraordinary beings, Zheng Dong took out the Faith Holy Grail.

This item was a brainwashing artifact that could help him subdue the God-Devouring Beast and other extraordinary beings.

Soon, the God-Devouring Beast and other extraordinary beings submitted to Zheng Dong and were refined into undead puppets by him.

Subsequently, Zheng Dong had the God-Devouring Beast return to prepare Mimic Crystal Stones.

He needed a large quantity of Mimic Crystal Stones to upgrade and evolve Jingjing.

Previously, he lacked the conditions, but now he intended to use forty-eight thousand Mimic Crystal Stones to create an ultimate mechanical body for Jingjing.

At that time, Jingjing would truly be able to change forms at will, without any restrictions.

The God-Devouring Totem Kingdom's reserves of Mimic Crystal Stones were not sufficient. Zheng Dong had the God-Devouring Beast return to mine them, while he himself intended to have the Twin-Horned Night Demon guide him to find the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast.

Although the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast belonged to the Night Demon Totem Kingdom, its status within the kingdom was not very high.

After all, it was not a Night Demon.

Of course, the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast was lazy and did not care about these matters, spending most of its days eating and sleeping.

With the Twin-Horned Night Demon leading the way, Zheng Dong successfully entered the Night Demon Totem Kingdom.

And he found the Nine Nether Geomagnetic Beast.
