"All personnel, listen to my command!" Mu Xue took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. "Ranged attack units, break through that formation at all costs! Melee units, follow me and hold off the enemy!"

Upon hearing Mu Xue's command, the soldiers' eyes rekindled with hope. They roared and unleashed the last bit of their supernatural power to fight back against the enemy's attack.

However, the enemy's numbers were simply too great, and each one was incredibly powerful. Ning Yu's team's defensive line was inevitably being compressed little by little. Just when it seemed they were on the verge of total collapse, a sudden change occurred!

"Boom!"

The sky seemed to have been ripped open with a huge gash, and black cracks spread rapidly like a spider web. An indescribable, terrifying pressure poured out from the cracks, enveloping the entire battlefield.

"What is that?!"

Both Ning Yu's team and the opposing forces were stunned by this sudden change. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared in horror at the strange phenomenon in the sky.

"Snap—"

With a deafening roar, a blinding light burst forth from the crack. The light was so dazzling that no one could look directly at it; they could only barely make out a huge black vortex slowly forming within the crack.

A powerful suction force emanated from the vortex, drawing in rubble, trees, and even some weaker superhumans from the battlefield, who vanished without a trace.

"Oh no! Retreat quickly!"

Someone shouted, and both sides were thrown into chaos, retreating in an attempt to escape this eerie place.

However, it was all too late...

That powerful suction force instantly enveloped the entire battlefield, and no one could escape it!

Ning Yu, who was trapped in the formation, was also thrown away by this force and crashed heavily to the ground. He struggled to stand up, but found that his body was as if it were filled with lead and he could not move at all.

"What the hell is this thing...?"

Ning Yu was filled with fear. He desperately tried to activate his superpowers, but found that they were sealed and unusable.

Just then, an even more powerful energy poured down from the sky. This energy seemed to carry some strange fluctuations, instantly piercing through Ning Yu's body. He felt his consciousness begin to blur, and everything before his eyes became distorted...

"Ahhhh—"

Ning Yu roared in agony, feeling as if his body was being torn apart. The intense pain nearly drove him to madness, and just as he was about to lose consciousness, he seemed to hear a voice in his ear:

"Fusion...begins..."
