At the critical moment of life and death, there is no time for hesitation!

"Come out... for me!" The thorn vortex in Pei Du's left eye erupted with an unprecedented dim light! His left hand, covered in annihilation energy, fiercely grasped the void in the direction of Gaia! Simultaneously, the power of the thorn star core in his chest, connected to Xu Shuangyao's spirit, blended with the guiding force of the planet's will, like an invisible giant hand, fiercely piercing deep into the Earth's core, wrapping around the black crystal core that was about to explode!

Buzz——!!!

The dark blue lines on the surface of the black crystal core suddenly became dazzlingly bright! The terrifying destructive energy was about to explode out of control!

"Suppress!" Pei Du roared! The power of the Thorn Star Core, mixed with the newly comprehended annihilation law, transformed into countless gray-black chains of laws, forcibly entwining and penetrating the turbulent energy structure of the black crystal core! At the same time, Xu Shuangyao mobilized the golden energy of the entire planet's veins, like a gentle cushion, enveloping and soothing the core's restlessness!

It's like taming a stellar beast that is about to explode!

Under Pei Du's exquisitely refined guidance and the buffering power of Xu Shuangyao's planetary energy, the violent destructive energy of the black crystal core was forcibly redirected! An immensely thick torrent of energy, emitting a pure black light of destruction, its edges entwined with the gray-black aura of the Thorn Star Core and the pale golden aura of the planet's will, was forcibly drawn from the depths of the Earth's core. Following the network of earth veins, it was injected into the core node of the annihilation matrix constructed by Pei Du in orbit!

boom--!!!

The entire Annihilation Matrix seemed to be infused with divine blood! The originally gray-black energy network instantly became as deep as ink! The matrix's structure became more complex and solid! Countless tiny annihilation runes spontaneously generated and circulated within the matrix network! A terrifying aura of destruction that made space wail, like an awakened world-destroying beast, brewed within the matrix! It was no longer a trap, but a spear of annihilation, hanging over the Reaper fleet's jump point, ready to be unleashed!

Time: 30 seconds!

The core of the Annihilation Matrix, a forcibly guided black crystal core, hovered like the heart of the Matrix, its every beat sending ripples of annihilation through the surrounding space. Pei Du hovered above the core, the thorny vortex of his left eye gazing coldly into the depths of space. Xu Shuangyao's (Gaia) power, flowing through the connection between the Earth Shield and the Annihilation Matrix, continuously supported him.

Just then—

Buzz!!!

An indescribably massive spatial fluctuation erupted, as if the curtain of the universe were being violently tugged by an invisible giant hand! Outside Gaia's high orbit, in the center of that airspace, already utterly chaotic due to the ragtag army, space twisted and churned violently like boiling water!

Immediately afterwards, a space wormhole so huge that it blocked half of Gaia's vision was forcibly torn open!

The wormhole's edges weren't smooth, but instead were riddled with constantly fading, jagged spatial cracks! Inside, instead of deep darkness, a thick, cold, silver-gray light swirled, like a sea of ​​liquid metal! Countless enormous, hideous warships, forms beyond conventional geometric understanding, loomed within that silver-gray sea of ​​light! A single projection, emanating a chilling sense of order and destructive pressure, caused the entire Gaia star system to groan under the strain!

The Reaper Main Fleet is coming!

"Earth Shield! Full power!" Xu Shuangyao (Gaia)'s scream echoed in the Earth's core! The golden shell covering the planet instantly solidified into a solid golden barrier!

"Annihilation Matrix! Activate!" Pei Du's icy voice was like a final judgment! He thrust his hands, covered in tricolor energy circuits, slammed toward the wormhole! The Thorn Star Core in his chest pulsed to its limit!

Buzz——!!!!

The massive annihilation matrix enveloping the orbit was instantly activated! The black crystals at its core erupted with an all-consuming black light! Countless gray-black death beams, imbued with the ultimate principles of annihilation, erupted from every node of the matrix like billions of enraged poisonous dragons! Instantly intertwining into a destructive web of death, it fiercely enveloped the newly torn wormhole entrance!

The power of the end of the thorn star core, the guardian wrath of the planet's will, and the high-dimensional destructive weapons from foreign lands, collided violently at this moment!

The circle of the end closes here!

Buzz——!!!!

The curtain of the universe was completely torn apart!

The massive space wormhole resembled the bleeding wound of a giant cosmic god, its edges riddled with fissures of frantic birth and death, like millions of sawtooths gnawing at space! Inside the wormhole, a viscous, cold, silver-gray light, like a sea of ​​liquid metal, surged violently, emanating a soul-freezing aura of absolute order and destruction! Countless gigantic, hideous, terrifying warships, beyond conventional geometric comprehension, sank and emerged within that roiling sea of ​​silver-gray light!

It was just a projection! Just the aftermath of the tearing of space!

Boom——!!!

The spatial structure of the entire Gaia star field groaned in agony, like billions of giant beams snapping simultaneously! The light of distant stars flickered in the distorted space, like a candle in the wind! In Gaia's high orbit, the metal wreckage of the Gravekeeper fleet was struck by an invisible hammer, instantly reduced to dust! Even the Rock Spirit warships of the "Rock Clan," frantically stirring space in the distance, attempting to create a turbulent flow, their heavy hulls wailed as they were forcibly pushed away from their designated positions!

The Reaper Main Fleet! Its very existence is a blasphemy and a crushing violation of the laws of the universe!

"Earth Vein Shield! Full power! Inject all reserves!" Xu Shuangyao (Gaia) let out a tearing scream from the core of the Earth! She pressed her hands firmly onto the giant golden roots, the golden flame mark between her brows burning like a miniature star! The golden shell covering the planet - the Earth Vein Shield, driven by the planet's will at all costs, instantly solidified from a translucent halo into a substantial barrier like a stack of thousands of feet high mountains, flowing with the golden glow of lava! The phantom images of mountains and rivers roared on the surface of the barrier, emitting an extremely heavy protective will! The entire atmosphere of Gaia was violently fluctuated by the appearance of this barrier!
