Lin Yi took a deep breath, feeling the surging power of spacetime within his body. His eyes instantly sharpened, as if two sharp swords were piercing the night sky.
A slight smile played on his lips, forming a confident arc: "Since you're here, don't even think about leaving! Today, I'll show you what true control over time and space really means!"
In an instant, the space around Lin Yi began to fluctuate violently, and a series of teeth-grinding "crackling" sounds came from the air, as if some invisible force was tearing reality apart.
Visibly, ripples spread outwards from Lin Yi in all directions, creating a strange sense of distortion in the space wherever they passed, like a distorted image in a funhouse mirror.
"Space-time...distorted!"
Lin Yi let out a low shout and suddenly opened his arms as if to embrace the whole world.
The spacetime power within him erupted like a volcano, pouring out and instantly enveloping a huge spacetime vortex within a radius of several hundred meters.
Those alien soldiers who were originally baring their teeth and waving their claws and looking menacing were now like clothes being rolled into a washing machine, instantly losing their sense of direction.
Their bodies distorted in the twisted space, emitting screams that sounded both terrifying and comical.
Some soldiers were twisted into pretzel shapes, while others deflated like punctured balloons, then burst into clumps of green slime with a "bang".
"My God, is this...is this even human? It's practically a human meat grinder!" Long Wu stared in disbelief and couldn't help but swear.
The golden light in his hand trembled so badly that he almost couldn't hold it.
Even though Whitebeard was a man of great experience, he was deeply shocked by what he saw.
He stroked his signature white beard.
Su Qing looked at Lin Yi calmly.
"Don't just stand there, take this opportunity to teach them a lesson!" Lin Yi's voice echoed in the spacetime vortex, like that of a god who controls everything.
Whitebeard was the first to react. He roared and slashed fiercely at the extradimensional soldiers who were being tormented by the distortion of spacetime.
The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was released without reservation, and a series of heart-palpitating vibrations resounded in the air, as if the entire space was about to shatter.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of explosions rang out, and the extradimensional soldiers burst open like watermelons struck by a heavy hammer, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
Long Wu followed closely behind, pushing the power of his true dragon bloodline to its limit. His whole body shone with golden light, making him look like a golden war god.
He roared and swung his fist, smashing it hard at the remaining extradimensional soldiers.
"Awoo..."
A faint phantom of a dragon's head appeared on Long Wu's fist, carrying a world-destroying power that instantly blasted those extradimensional soldiers into dust.
Su Qing wasn't idle either. Her hands flew across the virtual keyboard in front of her, and beams of blue light shot out from her fingertips, accurately striking the vital points of the extradimensional soldiers.
These beams of light contain immense energy, capable of instantly dismantling an enemy's defenses and then utterly destroying them.
Under the combined attack of Lin Yi's spacetime distortion, Whitebeard's vibrational power, Long Wu's true dragon bloodline, and Su Qing's energy beam, those originally menacing extradimensional soldiers were quickly wiped out like autumn leaves swept away by the wind.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Night Owl and Xuanmingzi's expressions turned extremely ugly.
They originally thought that with these extradimensional soldiers, they would be able to completely suppress Lin Yi and the others, but they did not expect that Lin Yi would completely turn the tables with a move called "space-time distortion".
"Damn it, how can this kid be so strong?" Night Owl said through gritted teeth.
"This can't go on any longer! We must activate the teleportation array as soon as possible and enter the 'Forgotten City'!" Xuan Mingzi was also somewhat flustered, and he said urgently.
The two exchanged a glance, nodded simultaneously, and then rushed towards the teleportation array without prior arrangement.
As long as they can activate the teleportation array and enter the "Forgotten City," they still have a chance.
However, just as they were about to approach the teleportation array, Chu Yao's voice suddenly rang in Lin Yi's ear: "Lin Yi, we've found a way to break the countermeasure!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi's spirits lifted, and he immediately said to Su Qing, "Su Qing, try using the method to break the spell and activate the teleportation array!"
Su Qing nodded and quickly followed Chu Yao's instructions, typing a complex string of code on the virtual keyboard.
With a "click," the countermeasures device, which had been flashing red light, suddenly stopped operating, and was replaced by a dazzling green light.
"We did it!" Su Qing shouted excitedly.
Without the protection of the countermeasures, the teleportation array immediately began to operate, with streaks of blue light flowing within it, emitting powerful energy fluctuations.
Upon witnessing this scene, Night Owl and Xuanmingzi's faces instantly turned ashen.
They knew they had completely lost their chance.
"No... Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!" Night Owl roared madly, unwilling to accept defeat.
Xuanmingzi's face was ashen. He never expected that all his carefully planned schemes would fall apart at the last moment.
"Now, it's our turn to fight back!" Lin Yi sneered, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Night Owl and Xuan Mingzi.
In his eyes, the power of spacetime surged wildly, like two black holes, about to devour everything.
"Your end has come!"
Lin Yi showed no mercy and punched Night Owl in the face.
Night Owl had no time to dodge and was hit by Lin Yi's punch. He flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out blood.
Seeing this, Xuanmingzi tried to run away, but Lin Yi grabbed his shoulder.
Lin Yi's spacetime power instantly surged into his body, sealing off all his meridians.
"What...what did you do to me?" Xuan Mingzi asked in horror, feeling his power rapidly draining away.
"It's nothing, it's just temporarily turning you into an ordinary person," Lin Yi said calmly.
Having lost his power, Xuanmingzi was like a lamb to the slaughter, utterly powerless to resist.
Lin Yi and his group pressed their advantage, forcing Night Owl and Xuan Mingzi to retreat.
Night Owl clutched his chest, glaring fiercely at Lin Yi, his eyes filled with venom: "Lin Yi, don't be so smug! Even if you stop us, you can't change the final outcome! In the 'Forgotten City,' I will make you pay the price!"
Xuanmingzi said with a gloomy expression, "'The Forgotten City' is the real battlefield! There, you will witness true despair!"
After saying that, the two helped each other up and fled the scene in a disheveled state.
Lin Yi watched their departing figures.
Although Lin Yi and the others successfully prevented Night Owl and Xuan Mingzi from entering the real final battle ahead of time, they are still waiting for them in the "Forgotten City".
"Let's go too!" Lin Yi turned around and said to the people behind him.
Su Qing walked to Lin Yi's side and asked softly, "Lin Yi, is the 'Forgotten City' really as dangerous as they say?"
Lin Yi looked up into the distance, his eyes shining with determination: "No matter how dangerous it is, we must go and try! For the future of Earth, for everything we cherish!"
He paused, a confident smile playing on his lips: "Besides, I always feel that something is waiting for me in the 'City of Oblivion'..."
Su Qing looked at Lin Yi's profile, her heart filled with curiosity and anticipation.
She knew that the journey ahead would be even more challenging and unpredictable.
"Hey, do you guys think there might be a lot of treasures in that 'Forgotten City'? Wouldn't it be great if we brothers made a fortune then?" Long Wu said, rubbing his hands together with an expectant look on his face.
Whitebeard chuckled and patted Long Wu on the shoulder: "You brat, all you ever think about is money! But I also think the 'Forgotten City' is definitely not simple! Maybe we can even find some good things to improve our strength!"
Looking at his companions, Lin Yi felt a surge of strength within him.
He knew that no matter what difficulties lay ahead, as long as they were together, they would be able to overcome them.
"Let's go, let's unveil the mystery of the 'Forgotten City' together!" Lin Yi took a deep breath and took the lead in walking towards the teleportation array.
Just then, Aizen suddenly stepped out from the crowd. He adjusted his glasses and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips: "It seems an interesting adventure is about to begin..." He gazed meaningfully at Lin Yi's retreating figure, leaving everyone wondering what he was thinking...
As the smoke cleared, a strange, burnt smell filled the air, mixed with a faint stench of blood, making one hold their breath.
Lin Yi stood in front of the teleportation array, looking at the array patterns that shimmered with a dark blue light, and a strange excitement welled up in his heart.
It feels like the satisfying feeling of tearing up books after the college entrance exam, or the satisfaction of emptying your shopping cart on Singles' Day. In short, it's awesome!
"Done! Yao Yao, Aizen, well done!" Lin Yi gave a thumbs up, his face beaming with the joy of victory.
Chu Yao's voice came through the earpiece, tinged with a hint of smugness: "Of course! Don't you know who I am? There's nothing I can't handle when this AI life form assistant takes action!"
Aizen adjusted his glasses, a mysterious smile playing on his lips. "Heh, it was just a small favor. The real challenge lies within the 'Forgotten City.'" His tone was enigmatic and difficult to decipher.
"What's there to be afraid of! We'll meet force with force and water with water! I've been itching for a fight for a long time!" Long Wu, carrying his golden club, looked eager to try, wishing he could rush into the "Forgotten City" right now and wreak havoc.
The white-bearded man stroked his beard, his eyes gleaming with wisdom: "'The Forgotten City,' given its name, it must hold some secret. Once inside, we must be extremely careful and proceed with caution."
Su Qing walked to Lin Yi's side and gently took his hand.
Lin Yi grasped Su Qing's hand in return, giving her a reassuring look: "Don't worry, I'll be fine. When I get back, we'll..." He paused, then leaned close to Su Qing's ear and whispered something.
Su Qing's face flushed instantly, and she glared at him playfully: "You're so annoying!"
"Ahem!" Whitebeard coughed twice, interrupting the slightly ambiguous atmosphere. "Alright, it's getting late, let's get going!"
Lin Yi took a deep breath, turned to look at the teleportation array, his eyes flashing with determination: "'Forgotten City,' here we come!" He stepped into the teleportation array first, his figure instantly disappearing into the blue light.
The others followed suit, disappearing one by one into the teleportation array.
Just after the last person disappeared, the light of the teleportation array gradually dimmed and eventually returned to calm.
At that moment, a dark figure silently appeared beside the teleportation array. Looking at the empty array, a sinister smile curled at the corner of his lips: "Heh, 'Forgotten City'... I hope you all come out alive..." With that, the figure vanished, leaving only a faint smell of sulfur in the air...
