The ground shaking continued to drag on for what seemed like an eternity. However, several seconds later, the shaking subsided somewhat, allowing everyone affected to slowly stand up.
At the same time, the blinding light that had blocked everyone's view had disappeared and, although relatively slower, the ability to hear sound from the surroundings was partially returning to every player and NPC soldier.
Xie Feng was one of the relatively few people who did not fall to the ground and his first reaction at that moment had been to cling tightly to Shui Wuhen, who was the most defenseless among all those present. When he opened his eyes again, his expression froze completely.
Not only Xie Feng... It didn't matter if it was Yao Zenyu, Yao Mei, Nangong Lei, One Man Army, or the rest of the leaders of China's strongest guilds; all of them simply couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Previously, Xie Feng had said that a single skill could probably decimate tens of thousands of players. However, he had never seen a Saint grade boss completely unleashed; therefore, his previous words had only been his estimation... At that moment, everyone, including Xie Feng himself, thought that such an estimation was already big enough and that they were giving face to the power of the Abyssal Dragon.
However, Xie Feng and everyone else had greatly underestimated the power that a Saint grade powerhouse could unleash when it ignored all the consequences.
"My god..." Xie Yao covered her mouth with both hands as her eyes widened in shock.
Previously, the six million players surrounded the Abyssal Dragon like an ocean surrounding an island. However, at this moment, there was a large free patch where no living creature could be seen standing. The only thing that was spared from the previous attack in that area was the terrain since the land of this world could only be destroyed by the dreaded Destruction effect.
It was difficult to estimate how many players had died after the previous attack, however, one thing was certain:
"That attack... At least two or three hundred thousand players lost their lives..." Gu Qianxue whispered in a low voice as if she was afraid of attracting the attention of the terrifying monster that looked at everyone as if they were insignificant ants.
As if to check her words, the communication tools of the different guild leaders began to constantly flicker with messages, reporting the terrifying losses.
In just a matter of seconds, more than three hundred thousand dead had been added up.
A single attack had killed over three hundred thousand players!
The power to wipe out an entire race by itself without impediment!
Such was the power of a Saint grade powerhouse!
The players despaired at the news and the hope of victory had completely disappeared. Winning? Did they expect to defeat that monster? That was impossible!
The Abyssal Dragon did not attack again immediately and began scanning the crowd of ants as if it was looking for something or someone, giving the creatures before it time to despair.
Although many players wished to retreat, the NPCs had no choice but to grit their teeth and persist... Because they, who were natives of this world, could not allow this creature to unleash a massacre against mankind!
King Hu Yi pulled his bowstring tightly and, instead of firing immediately, he channeled energy for a few seconds before finally releasing the golden arrow that had formed.

"Unstoppable Arrow!"
An arrow formed by the power of all the elements except darkness soared through the skies, forming a beautiful but terrifying arc. In just a second it had crossed hundreds of meters of distance had successfully hit its target.
BOOM!
After a thunderous explosion, the Abyssal Dragon's head was forced to the side and its giant body staggered as a six-digit figure hovered above its head slowly.
-1.939.654
The damage was very high and it was definitely not the damage that a Heaven grade powerhouse could inflict against a Saint grade powerhouse. But thanks to the help of the God grade Unbound Bow, the King of the North's attack power was much higher than a normal Heaven grade powerhouse.
However, such an attack against two hundred and fifty million health points... It was simply too insignificant.
The colorful cloud formed by the explosion of elemental power slowly began to disappear and the angry eyes of the Abyssal Dragon were visible again. The beast easily found the source of the attack and focused its pressure on that spot as it raised its giant head towards the sky.
"Damn it!" Xie Feng couldn't help but curse out loud when he saw the Abyssal Dragon looking in his direction. He had previously wanted to stop King Hu Yi, after all, the king was next to them and if he attacked the Abyssal Dragon would undoubtedly launch a counterattack in their direction.
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
Flash!
The surroundings lit up again as the Abyssal Dragon's massive body flickered with countless flashes of lightning. Just like before, those lightning flashes gathered before it, forming a huge energy sphere and, without even waiting for a second, it launched a terrifying beam of power in the direction of where King Hu Yi was.
The faces of the guild leaders, the NPC soldiers, the King of the North, Xie Yao, and the rest of the girls turned pale. However, although they were all frightened, they could not fight against the blinding light and were forced to close their eyes.
They all knew that they were definitely dead and the only person who would survive among those in the area would be King Hu Yi whose HP was a couple of tens of millions.
However, Xie Feng did not close his eyes. Previously he had reflexively closed his eyes, but now he realized that the blinding light did not affect him; after all, no matter what kind of energy the Abyssal Dragon was using, the illumination could not blind the holder of the Pearl of Light.
The speed at which the attack traveled was at the speed of lightning and in a few blinks of an eye, it had arrived in front of them. However, before it hit them and sent them all into oblivion, a screen of ice appeared floating in the sky a few feet above the ground.
"Water Mirror!"
Everyone nearby heard Shiva's furious shout and the temperature of the surroundings dropped drastically for a moment before returning to normal followed immediately by the sound of a crystal mirror breaking into countless pieces.
Realizing that they had not yet died and were somehow still alive, everyone opened their eyes and saw how the beam of light that was about to kill hundreds of thousands of people just like the previous one, was now traveling in the opposite direction directly towards the Abyssal Dragon.
The Abyssal Dragon obviously didn't expect something so strange to happen either and could only observe with its eyes wide open as its own attack approached at speeds impossible for it to avoid.
BOOOOOM!!!
The body of the Abyssal Dragon was forced back several steps as countless lightning bolts covered its body.
