The Sect Master was left shocked seeing such a scene; it wasn't only him either, all members of the Nine Dragon Sect were left shocked. A whole asss meteor was heading straight for them, what else could they do??? But even this didn't break Sect Master Lei's resolve as he could feel the presence of his Sect's guardian beasts. Below him in the sea of clouds, nine trails appeared heading straight for the formation.
The trails were huge and before long spike-like horns and batting wings could be seen; revealing the source of the trails. Dragons! IT'S THE GOD DAMN DRAGONS!!! Nine to be exact.
***[Reader]: Well now we know where the Nine Dragon Sect name came from, they literally have nine dragons!***
The dragons were magnificent, every bit legendary as the legends stated. They had dark black scales with red undertones. Their wings were enormous, enough to shade the sun making them seem like calamities. Their talons were long and sharp capable of shredding the sturdiest of defenses. Their teeth as sharp as swords and their eyes as red as rubies. Everything about them screamed danger but at the same, they gave off the feeling of nobility which made you feel like kneeling in front of them, they were the mighty dragons after all...
Out of all of them, there was one dragon that stood superior. It was larger than the rest by a decent amount making them look like its offspring. It also had an extra pair of wings that seemed capable of creating hurricanes. All and all, it was magnificent... too bad you couldn't see it.
The dragons, led by the biggest one, flew towards the falling meteor *a scene right out of a fantasy novel*; they opened their maws causing a deep red light to glow, and within a second, bright red pillars of fire shot out with the aim of resisting the meteor.
***MIND YOU THIS IS A WUXIA NOVEL SO EVERYTHINGS HAPPENING FAST AFFFFFF***
*BOOM*
They collided causing a rumble to resound, but it was all for naught as the pillars of fire didn't seem to do anything. The meteor continued on its path, heading straight for the Sect, revealing more and more of its monumental body with each passing second. Before long it had blocked out the sky completely, making the [Author] realize that if the meteor was as large as the whole of Nine Dragon Sect, then the void created by the meteor summoning formation was equally as big; meaning that as of right now, the sun, as well as a small chunk of the sky, was blocked out, tossing the Nine Dragon Sect into an age of darkness!!!
* * *
[Reader]: Huge oversight if you ask me...
[Author]: Oh, fuck offff!!
* * *
Fortunately or unfortunately tho, (UNFORTUNATELY!!!), the dark sky was now illuminated by the molten red surface of the ginormous meteor that was hurling their way.
***[Reader]: this shit definitely causing an extra burn damage for sure!***
*BOOM*
Another rumble was heard as the meteor collided with the defensive formation the Sect Master and the rest had formed. Crack spread across the surface of the barrier like a spider's web, but due to the constant supply of qi from the Sect Members the crack quickly mended; reinforcing the barrier in the process. But that wasn't permanent as more cracks would show up before being restored by the surplus qi. The Sect Master seeing this was not in the best of moods as he thought, 'This is becoming a battle of attrition and I don't think we'll be on the winning side by the end of it...'
The Sect Master racked his brain on how they should proceed; the existence of his sect hinging on his decision.
"Brother Horko, activate the artillery! Use all that is available and empty all it's got!"
Horko who was manning the Puppet Knight responded with, "Yes, Master!", before flying towards the central island. Following his lead, his workers spread themselves evenly across all the islands, waiting in position for further instructions.
Horko abruptly landed in front of a strange building with thick walls before passing through its doors. Multiple security alerts appeared as a multitude of drones appeared, with guns ready to let loose a barrage of bullets, asking for clearance. He hastily entered all the necessary clearance identifications before heading for the elevator.
Once inside he pressed a button labeled 3B which took him three floors down into the head control room. Oh, where was he you ask? Only in the Defense Management Headquarters for the whole of Nine Dragon Sect!!!
Inside he saw countless people in office robes, the people having received word from the Sect Master led Horko toward the command center. Finally arriving, Horko told all the people there to activate all the artillery their defense system was capable of, whilst at the same time he modified the system. Basically what he did was lower the life span of the artillery in exchange for more destructive power. This was an option meant for only the gravest of situations as it would leave them defenseless once their lifespan was exhausted.
Innumerable cannons activated around the barriers of the islands aiming their sights on the massive ball of destruction hurling their way. The workers Horko had brought with him were armed with plasma guns, set their sights high waiting for the command to fire.
'Master Lei, the preparation has finished, on your mark!'
A brief moment of silence existed while Sect Master Lei let out a smile, "Light it up!"
*ZWUSHHHHHHH*
Suddenly, the meteor wasn't the only source of luminance as countless rays of blue, colored the sky bright! Rays upon rays of light collided with the meteor at a single point, slowly carving away at it. That was further amplified by the pillars of fire the nine Dragons kept spewing; but under all that attack, the meteor was slowed down by only a fraction.
Han Sen, who had disappeared for a while now, appeared above the void with a sneer plastered across his face!
"You think you did something??? NO! It's ALL POINTLESS!!!"
With a crazed look on his face, he executed a couple of hand signs. Suddenly the meteor that was moving at a relatively slow speed appeared as if it was shot out of a cannon, it went forward with blinding speed! But under the unrelenting fire from those below pushing it back and its huge weight fishing it forward, it collapsed on itself, shattering into countless pieces.
Simultaneously, huge explosions occurred around the shields of the islands causing them to shatter into bits. Everything happened so quickly that not a single person could react in time.
*BOOM*BOOM*CRACK*CRACK*
As if it was a meteor shower, the broken shards collided against the formation before inevitably breaking it. The ones in the formation coughed up a mouthful of blood due to the backlash of having the formation destroyed like that. But now, the formation wasn't the only thing being destroyed.
With nothing obstructing their way, the shards rained down onto the islands below causing death and destruction of unimaginable magnitudes! A few seconds in and only a hand full of structures were left standing, emphasis on the "a few seconds in". The crazy thing was, due to their sheer number, around two-thirds of the broken shards had passed through the large asss gaps between the islands and disappeared into the sea of clouds below.

*A few minutes earlier*
The staff bolted toward the main character before trying to stabilize his flailing body. Finally having him in a skydiver's position, the staff flew towards Yuno before prompting her to grab onto it, dragging her towards the main character's side. Yuno grabbed hold of the MC before summoning a rope and a few talismen from his spatial ring. She then applied the talismen on her and the MC's body before wrapping the rope around them. "Them" including the staff, effectively making a DIY flying chariot.
Exiting the sea of clouds Yuno was met with the sight of an open sea.
'Where the fuck are we??'
Not caring for the sight, the staff slowly decreased its flying speed allowing them to slowly glide through the air.
That only lasted a few minutes tho as shortly after that, bright lights flashed across the sky and innumerable booms were heard. Following that, an explosion lit up the clouds above showing the wrath of god... that was further reinforced by the giant meteor rocks that started raining down from the sky.
Yuno seeing this accepted her fate as there was literally nothing she could do about it. The stick on the other hand just floated, thinking \|/... *Translation: FOR FUCK'S SAKE!*
