CHAPTER 1092: CHAPTER 581: THE LAMENT OF THE BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY NAVY (PART 2)

"Do they want public opinion to make us retreat? Even the Jieke Group can be so naive!"

On the Blue Ridge amphibious command ship, after hearing the news of the Jieke Group starting a live broadcast, Cedric sneered contemptuously, as if he had already seen through the Jieke Group’s facade.

Remembering how the previously domineering Jieke Group softened in front of him this time, Cedric’s pride and arrogance surged, as if he had become the hero of the Beautiful Country resisting the Jieke Group.

"Pass down the order, have the research team begin action, land on Penglai Immortal Island, and make sure to bring back more this time."

Cedric commanded, impatiently coming here this time because back home in the Beautiful Country, some elites were nearing their end, putting all their hopes on finding treasure medicine and pills to extend their lives.

With Cedric’s order, hundreds of warships led by the Beautiful Country began accelerating towards Penglai Immortal Island with three specially modified research ships.

Due to the storms raging around Penglai Immortal Island recently, these large research ships had been further modified to withstand wind and waves, planning to break through the storm zone of Penglai Immortal Island at lightning speed to deliver researchers there safely.

To ensure the success of the plan, before the three large research ships approached, several destroyers consecutively fired over a dozen missiles.

All these missiles were aimed at Penglai Immortal Island, intending to first blast the outer reef of Penglai Immortal Island with missiles, opening a safe path for the approaching research ships; otherwise, deploying small boats nearby could be overturned by the huge waves.

Prior to missile launches, the sea joint fleet formed by the Beautiful Country openly broadcasted clear radio signals to prevent misjudgment by the Jieke Group which could lead to a naval battle.

Brilliant flares shot out, and white missiles streaked across the sky, soaring through the clouds.

The fiery tail emitted by the missiles from the destroyer traced a long arc between sea and sky, separated by tens of nautical miles; for the speed of the missiles, the distance was exceedingly short.

The first missile dived from the sky, about to hit an exposed reef on the outer side of Penglai Immortal Island under precise satellite guidance.

Boom!

However, before the missile truly collided with the reef, it was preemptively detonated mid-air.

A black-and-white colored barrier, like a cover, faintly appeared around Penglai Immortal Island, enveloping the entire island.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Following this, the subsequent missiles encountered the same fate: all intercepted by the black-and-white barrier, the explosion waves and shock front rendered mere ripples on the barrier, nothing significant compared to the vast Penglai Immortal Island.

"Is this plasma shield technology?"

Cedric abruptly stood up, watching the live transmission from the front, his expression instantly froze.

He never imagined Penglai Immortal Island would possess such high-tech shield technology, clearly not present during the last island landing.

Before Cedric could devise a follow-up countermeasure, a dramatic change occurred on Penglai Immortal Island.

With vast blue waves, an ancient aura suddenly surged from the deep sea.

The seawater began swirling as if a giant beast awakened beneath the waves.

In an instant, all of Penglai Immortal Island shuddered, slowly rising from the sea.

Surrounding Penglai Immortal Island, four water tornadoes shot up, sea water transformed into lifelike scales and webbed feet, forming four giant legs resembling celestial pillars, while the jade towers on the turtle shell, engraved with ancient runes, floated and rotated in the void, emitting dazzling light, and a dragon-head shaped visage emerged in front, akin to a revived sea-suppressing xuan turtle.

Around ten thousand meters of sea area, waves surged like an army on the move, Penglai Immortal Island rose from the water, appearing like a moving island, shrouded in mist, as tens of thousands of tons of flowing water transformed into towering waterfalls, creating countless massive whirlpools.

Everyone witnessing this scene, whether the naval soldiers from the Beautiful Country-led fleet or Blue Star viewers watching the live broadcast, had their pupils quaking, mouths agape, entire beings trembling in fear and terror.

In front of the awakened Penglai Immortal Island, even the Nimitz-class aircraft carriers with a ten-thousand-ton displacement appeared insignificantly toy-like.

’Lord have mercy, what is that, God, this island can even do this, is it a transformer?’

’Damn damn damn, Penglai Immortal Island rocks! I said legendary Immortal Islands aren’t so easy to conquer, and those Beautiful Country folks dared to use missiles, killing me with laughter; let’s see how they wrap this up.’

’Damn Beautiful Country, what have they provoked, there’s immortals residing on that island, how dare they fire missiles recklessly.’

’My child is serving on the Reagan-class aircraft carrier, who can save my child, don’t let this stupid government harm my kid!’

’So horrifying, this island is incredibly powerful, thankfully our ships from the Jieke Group didn’t advance.’

Through the Jieke Group’s live broadcast lens, global viewers were overwhelmingly shocked, regardless of whether they were Hua Country viewers familiar with Penglai Immortal Island or those from Western nations unfamiliar with it, at this moment, everyone felt the awe and ruthlessness of mythical legends materializing, an irresistible force against which human-prized warships appeared insignificant.

"It’s over, over!"

Cedric’s face turned pale, lips quivering, regretting his rash missile bombardment on Penglai Immortal Island’s reefs, fearing he provoked the island’s defensive retaliation.

But his regret was already too late.

On the Yin Yang Sea Suppressing Palace, Su Jie spoke with Heavenly Constitution authoritatively: "Heavenly Might."

Rumble!

As the words fell, the Yin Yang Sea Suppressing Palace’s dragon-head resembling xuan turtle roared upward, Su Jie invoking the catastrophic force of the ocean, winds and clouds arose, giant waves like heavenly wrath, sea walls towering, forming an eternal nightmare image for the Beautiful Country’s naval soldiers.

On the sea, the Beautiful Country and its ally’s warships were horrified, all soldiers frantically steering in a frenzy, attempting to flee the soon-to-be-devoured sea area.

"Yang God!"

But in the next second, as Su Jie’s Yang God transcended, connecting the Tao River, he unleashed the utmost sea-suppression power of the Yin Yang Sea Suppressing Palace.

A bizarre occurrence transpired, as the sea area where the Beautiful Country’s sea joint fleet was positioned, initially turbulent, turned miraculously calm.

The seawater became smooth like a mirror, devoid of whistling winds, waves or surf, even the fish seemed frozen within.

Despite the Beautiful Country and allied ships’ propellers spinning crazily in the sea water, typically as propellers rotated, they would cut the water beneath at a regulated rate, pushing the water backward to generate forward propulsion, but currently, this objective physical rule had vanished, no matter how the propellers rotated, they couldn’t derive an ounce of propulsion.

"Physics, ceased to exist."

Cedric gazed at the idle spinning propeller beneath the Blue Ridge, and the mirror-like calm sea surface, with eyes filled with terror and despair.

Ahead, with tsunami waves akin to mountainous ranges rolling and crashing.

One after another, powerful human warships were mercilessly swallowed by the tsunami, like battered rafts, torn and ripped apart.

Previously mighty battleships, faced with this merciless natural force, were fragile as paper, one after another descended into the unfathomable depths, or battered by waves, converted into floating wreckage.

Including those two Nimitz-class aircraft carriers that the Beautiful Country esteemed, the Reagan and Eisenhower, they couldn’t withstand the overwhelming waves.

Gigantic tsunami waves like mountain peaks cascaded down, twisting the hundred-thousand-ton vessels back and forth in the sea, distorted steel creaked, countless Beautiful Country soldiers screamed, following their nation’s most formidable warship, sinking into the frigid ocean depths.
