BXBX NOVEL Chapter 176: Lein's main weapon
Outside the hall, the morning breeze blew gently, as if signaling the calm before the great storm. Efan and Takulani exited the hall, continuing their discussion about strategy and defense plans.
"We can\'t just sit around on the island," said Efan as he looked up at the sky. "Brother Lein told us to protect the surroundings, but we need to be more proactive. There\'s a chance the foreign enemies could appear in remote areas."
Takulani nodded. "Exactly. We need to make sure every region—from the major cities to the smallest villages—remains protected. No one should let their guard down."
The two of them agreed to divide tasks and immediately began moving across the island. Meanwhile, the other core members also started preparing for their respective duties, ready to face whatever might come.

Teleportation Hub
The sound of endless thunder filled the area of the teleportation hub. From the dozens of portals at the Teleportation Hub in the City of Life, all had been marked by the foreign invaders. The invaders continued to arrive, only to be killed on the spot by black lightning.
In reality, the main defense at the teleportation hub wasn\'t just the black lightning tower. There were also automatic arrow towers, fire cannons, and light lasers. However, none could match the power of the black lightning tower. Lein had specifically ordered the use of cannon towers to ensure that no enemy would survive or escape with a single strike.
The vast area of the Teleportation Hub was now eerily quiet, with only the storm of lightning visible. Along the perimeter, a few military guards silently observed, watching over the area with caution.
At the northern gate of the teleportation hub, a young man in a blue robe could be seen casually walking into the area. He showed no fear of the black lightning that was striking everywhere. As the island\'s owner, none of the towers on his land could harm him.
"Quite lively as usual, hahaha," Lein murmured as he continued walking toward one of the portals. Yes, the young man was Lein.
He had a strong suspicion that the invaders weren\'t system-made entities. It was highly likely that the creatures attacking were beings just like them. Ever since the natural protections had been lifted, the barriers preventing invasions from other realms had fallen, allowing access to the Divine Sky Realm.
After walking several meters, he finally arrived at one of the main portals, which stood three meters tall. He then examined the description on the status panel of the space portal in front of him.

(High-Level Space Portal)
A space portal crafted by a master blacksmith. The High-Level Space Portal has the capability to connect two points in space up to 1 million kilometers apart. Designed with pure energy extracted from the universe\'s core, this portal is the result of profound knowledge about dimensions and energy flow.
- Range: 1 million km
- Energy Consumption: 1000
- Space Stability: High
*Status: Negative (Taken Over)

"Taken over? Just like they reported," Lein muttered with a slight nod.
He had been informed earlier that the space portal was in a negative state and could only be used in two directions—between the destination set by the invader and himself. So, while the portal in front of him had previously allowed teleportation to many other portals, that was no longer possible.
Fortunately, Lein\'s island still had many other functioning portals, otherwise, they would have had difficulty traveling to monitor the allied islands.
As Lein pondered, he suddenly saw a creature with a bull\'s horned head emerge from one of the portals.
"Argh..." The creature let out a loud, terrifying roar.
Zap... Zzzpp...
In less than a second, the creature was reduced to ashes by the black lightning, not even its bones remained, only the black ash being carried away by the morning breeze.
"Damn... so vicious," Lein muttered, slightly surprised. He glanced at the remains of the black lightning and the smoke still lingering in the air, then shifted his gaze toward the tall tower in the center of the field. The tower was surrounded by a bright white light, and at its peak, black lightning danced freely, ready to strike at any moment.
Lein returned his attention to the space portal in front of him. "Alright... we\'ll find out once we go in," he said, preparing himself.
Yes, he was about to enter the portal to discover the origin of the attackers invading his Divine Sky Realm. Though not officially his realm yet, Lein was the strongest candidate.
"Lord Gold..." Lein called out casually, and suddenly, a sword covered in golden light floated before him.
"You grow more magnificent with each level up," Lein remarked, admiring the beauty of the sword gracefully hovering in front of him.

This golden sword was Lein\'s first golden weapon, given to him by a crowned middle-aged man when he advanced to Tier-1. With a "growth" type, this sword had been with him from level 10, growing to its current level of 50.
This sword had helped him overcome many obstacles and slay countless enemies. Its growth attribute allowed it to level up alongside Lein.
As the sword\'s level increased, its shape and size changed too. Initially, it had been a short sword, only half a meter long, but now it had grown over a meter. Additionally, its blade, once fully golden, had now become more transparent, with golden energy swirling inside it.
"Truly beautiful," Lein murmured in awe, eager to use it. Due to his fondness for this golden sword, he called it "Lord White."
