With a loud bang, the ground beneath Lu Siya’s feet suddenly disappeared.

That’s right, it “disappeared.”

It was as if an invisible Apocalyptic Beast had opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the ground within a radius of three to five meters!

The path that had been stripped off the ground revealed the empty underground space, and there was actually a Giant Sandworm that had been genetically modified right before Lu Siya’s feet.

It opened its mouth, which split into seven to eight parts and revealed that it was filled with fangs!

Thanks to gravity, Lu Siya, who had been caught off guard, immediately fell toward the Giant Sandworm’s open mouth.

The Giant Sandworm was more than three meters in diameter, and it was covered in artificial nerve implants as well as mind control coils. It proceeded to pounce toward Lu Siya’s feet.

The thousands of fangs in the beast’s mouth, driven by the violent vibration of its muscles, were reminiscent of a meat grinder operating at its limit. It was about to tear Lu Siya’s skin, bones, and straight, slender legs apart!

At that critical moment, there was a sharp glint in Lu Siya’s eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled into a sharp arc.

Her eyelashes did not even flutter. Meanwhile, the reinforced concrete around the hollow under her feet seemed to come to life.

Three or four sections of the reinforced concrete turned into sharp earth thorns, like the fangs of a rock dragon. They pierced through the Giant Sandworm, which was hiding below, and nailed it to the ground under her feet.

No matter how hard the beast struggled and let out ear-piercing screeches, it could not move even half a step under the restriction of the crisscrossing earth thorns.

The other sections of the reinforced concrete turned into steps that rose one by one, allowing Lu Siya to tap her feet lightly tap on them. The sturdy support gave her enough rebound force to soar into the air like a falcon.

Lu Siya was one of the top prospectors in Dragon City. Manipulating rocks, soil, sand, and even reinforced concrete was her specialty. A mere underground trap could not hold her.

However, because she had been delayed by the underground trap for two or three seconds, the Ghost Assassins lying in ambush around her had already set up their formation. They pounced on Lu Siya from the sky and the ground at the same time.

Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum

Just then, Meng Chao heard a dull vibration.

His brain seemed to pulsate along with the weird sound, and it made him feel like throwing up.

He looked at the streets and alleys in front of him again. Covered by the leaking smoke and the spreading dust, they looked even more hazy and blurry. The air was even rippling like water waves.

No, it was not just because of the smoke and dust.

Something was shrouding the outside of this space, further separating the poor streets and alleys in front of him from the Monster Market behind them. It was as if they were in two different worlds.

Meng Chao tried to inject spirit energy into his ear canal to soak his cochlea, eardrum, and auditory nerves, increasing his hearing to ten times its normal state.

He had been monitoring the loud voices from the Monster Market, but they had grown several times softer, making them seem distant and confusing. It was as if someone had stuffed cotton into his ears.

“Spatial barrier!”

Meng Chao immediately thought of a new technology that the various forces had been developing when he left Dragon City.

The so-called “spatial barrier” was also known as a Spatial Shield.

As the name implied, it was a way to separate a certain piece of space from the main space, to achieve the effect of hiding oneself or dodging an enemy’s attack.

On Earth, space was the same as time, and both were inseparable things.

However, in an alien world where space was extremely unstable and spatial gaps, as well as spatial passages, could be seen everywhere, it was possible to break the space and refine it into a weapon that could withstand all attacks. One just needed to grasp the principle of spatial gap creation or find a way to seal and transfer a certain spatial gap.

Meng Chao remembered that when he was still a gold-medal researcher in the ancient ruins research center, he had participated in the transmigration array project and carried out exploration in related fields.

To put it bluntly, the spatial barrier technology and the short-distance transmigration technology on the planet’s surface had the same effect.

Since it did not involve the problem of human body transmigration, the former was relatively easier to achieve.

Now, it seemed that during the year that Meng Chao left Dragon City, Thundercloud Technology had gone far in the research of spatial barriers.

These Ghost Assassins must have installed some kind of device in their surroundings. Once it was activated, it could create an extremely special spatial field, isolating the space around Lu Siya from the outside world to the extent of several dozen meters. At the very least, she would be partially blocked.

That way, no matter how much noise they made inside, the outside world would not notice them for the time being.

“No wonder Yun Feidian’s so confident about capturing Lu Siya in the downtown area without alerting the Azure Alliance or the general public.

“With the ‘spatial barrier generator,’ he can use his powerful killing weapon without any scruples in this blocked space!”

Just as the thought flashed through Meng Chao’s mind, more than ten dull explosions echoed in his ears.

The sound was enough to make the hair on the backs of Heaven Realm warriors and Hell Beasts stand on end. Their hearts race would race, and their pupils would constrict to the maximum.

It was the sound of an ultra-heavy anti-material sniper rifle firing crystal bullets continuously!

Pew! Pew! Pew! Pew!

More than ten colorful beams of light flashed above Meng Chao’s hiding place, drawing an ever-changing arc in the air. They shot toward Lu Siya’s vital points from more than ten different angles.

The colorful beams of light were merely the remnants of the crystal bullets tearing through the air and burning the floating dust at a high speed.

In other words, when Meng Chao saw the light beams, the real crystal bullets had already reached Lu Siya’s vital points!

At that moment of life and death, Lu Siya finally revealed her astonishing strength.

Layers of ripples instantly appeared around her body. It was as if a smaller and more secretive space was being created in that torn space.

In this small space, her body split apart, turning into blurry and unpredictable phantoms.

Several crystal bullets seemed to have pierced through her body, but in reality, they had only torn the phantoms apart.

However, the trap that Yun Feidian had meticulously designed was not that simple.

Just when Meng Chao thought that Lu Siya had dodged all the crystal bullets, the bullets exploded.

The crystal bullets had apparently reached the end of their flight path, and they could no longer adjust their direction and lethality. They exploded abruptly, launching thousands of single crystal nanowires from within!

Countless nanowires tangled together, and the dozen or so crystal bullets that brushed past Lu Siya instantly turned into a huge net that enveloped her!
