The overcast sky, the light covered by the heavy clouds, could not fall to the ground at all. The blackened clouds loomed overhead, so oppressive that it felt hard to breathe. It looked like it was going to rain, yet no rain fell, not even a single rumbling sound from above. Occasionally, someone would glance up at the dark clouds, feeling as if they were trapped inside a giant box. There wasn't even a hint of wind, only the hot air stirred in the oppressive atmosphere, making people irritable, and even more unsettling were the escaped convicts who had yet to show themselves.

The front-line war was already troublesome enough, and now there are reports of someone infiltrating the cities behind the Alliance lines. In the midst of the chaos at the front, if the rear was unstable, it would truly be too problematic. Yet, deploying such high-powered weapons to deal with a few infiltrators seemed a bit excessive. Could those intruders be gods? It was said that only eight had come, yet the response was as severe as if dealing with eight entire corps.

No one could figure out the issue because most people didn't know who these intruders were. They were just following orders. However, it was said that there was already news about those people, and now they were being dispatched to capture them all in one go. With such military strength, even if the enemy had some extraordinary abilities, they'd likely be blasted to ashes.

Some seasoned soldiers were already used to such situations, so they naturally yawned, lazily standing around with half-opened eyes, but their ears were keen, ready to react swiftly to any slight sound. After all, nobody can maintain 100% alertness 24/7.

"Still haven't found those people?" someone murmured softly, his face growing more tired. He had been here for three days, and during that time, he hadn't even seen a glimpse of those fugitives.

"Maybe those guys are already dead," someone echoed his words, their face showing boredom, clearly not concerned about the situation. Who knows how many times they have besieged in a year; they've seen such scenarios many times, usually ending unresolved, so there's no need to be too tense.

"I heard that group is made up of experts, breaking out from a nearby city a few days ago," a young man beside him replied, his face radiant, not worried about the siege at all. In his view, with their numbers and powerful weapons, there was nothing to fear about any strange beings. Besides, they had Superpower Users among them.

For ordinary people, even the lowest level Superpower Users are enough to seem awe-inspiring since the worship of power is one of humanity's most primal. And the abilities of Superpower Users are so wondrous, becoming mysterious and unpredictable in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Experts? In the end, still have to flee in panic." The first person who spoke snorted coldly, nearly closing his eyes completely. This kind of day was really too boring, setting up encirclements, then advancing step by step; there wasn't much need to exert great effort. As soon as those people were spotted, they could just fire blindly.

"Flee in panic? Such interesting experts," the young man chuckled softly, his expression unchanged. He truly had no fear of the situation, instead seeing it as an exciting experience.

Since morning, they had received no orders, and they had been here for nearly half a day without advancement. It looked like the morning would pass by like this. It was said that the entire encirclement had to be linked before they could proceed. Looking up at the oppressive sky again, the stifling weather was unbearable to the extreme, making his nose feel almost blocked, desperate for air.

In the darkened sky, there was not a single bird, yet suddenly, a person was suspended still.

A person???!!!

"Enemy attack!" The soldier, who was drowsy moments ago, suddenly shouted, a cold sweat breaking out from his heart when he saw a person hanging terrifyingly over their heads.

What kind of terrifying person was that?

His flesh seemed peeled, full of scars encrusted with blood, as if those scabs would crack and bleed with the slightest movement. What kind of face was that? Half of the face skin was gone, leaving only a thin layer of pink membrane with new blood vessels crisscrossing over, looking rather horrifying. Yet, a faint smile twisted that face, a chilling smile, with dark eyes flickering with a cold light that made one's heart tremble.

Just as that soldier shouted, the figure suspended in mid-air suddenly descended, spreading both arms and plummeting towards the ground. A faint Silver Light appeared on his body, like a giant eagle diving down.

With the abrupt descent of Yi Tian, a massive pressure spread out, causing the soldiers directly below him to feel their bodies become heavy. Their chests tightened, unable to bear the immense pressure, spitting blood from their mouths. The physically weaker ones directly collapsed to the ground, froth mixed with blood continuously flowing from their mouths.

Without even launching an attack, Yi Tian had already taken out dozens of soldiers, but he wasn't just facing the threat of soldiers; there were some Superpower Users among them as well. Although not from the Twelve Palace, the Superpower Users appearing here were not to be underestimated compared to the ones from the previous city.

Before reaching the ground, several figures from among the soldiers sprang out, charging towards the falling Yi Tian. A blue light erupted simultaneously from their bodies, evidently all Wind Element Superpower Users. There was no one more adept at aerial combat than Wind Element Superpower Users.

Even before their attacks landed, their righteous aura had already reached. A few Wind Blades sliced through the air, blocking Yi Tian's descent, slowing him down slightly. Yet, unexpectedly to those Superpower Users, Yi Tian spun in the air, diving toward them. That terrifying face transformed into a vicious grin, a chilling air spreading out with an irresistibly overwhelming momentum making it impossible for these Superpower Users to resist.

After all, they were not Twelve Palace level Superpower Users. When facing a master of Yi Tian's caliber, even if they initiated the first strike, they couldn't stop Yi Tian, a fierce tiger charging at them. His actions were swift as a bird spreading its sharp claws. Boom, azure light shattered, followed by a figure plummeting from mid-air.

That Wind Element Superpower User didn't even see how Yi Tian attacked before being shot down.

"Force him to the ground." Someone shouted, immediately ascending higher. The other Superpower Users immediately responded to the call, concurrently maneuvering their bodies, avoiding the diving Yi Tian, and climbing upwards.
