The moment the two extreme energies collided, a blinding light swallowed the heaven and earth, completely eclipsing even the morning sun.
Everything within a radius of several kilometers turned a pale white, and only a deafening roar remained in the ears.
It was enough to make one go blind and deaf!
On the terrace of the Royal City Army's command camp, Alex and Prince Marcus squinted their eyes, cruel smiles curling at the corners of their mouths.
"Hahaha! Taking a direct hit from a Super Magitek Cannon at such close range, even a body forged of adamantine would be reduced to flying ash!"
Green light flickered in Alex's eyes.
"This kid sure was arrogant, bringing about his own doom!"
Marcus echoed with a sinister laugh, "It's a pity about such a strong aura. I wanted to save him to devour slowly, but now we can only swallow his ashes."
In their eyes, a maximum power bombardment from the Super Magitek Cannon, coupled with such close proximity, would inevitably leave even a Tier 7 Half-Dragon powerhouse like Kaiaolen at death's door, let alone an ordinary human!
In the distant Allied camp, soldiers covered their eyes, their hearts in their throats.
"It's over... He was hit directly by the Super Magitek Cannon!"
A soldier cried out, his face full of despair.
Having just been resurrected by Ye Chuan, they already revered him as a god in their hearts. Seeing their god attacked now instantly threw their minds into chaos.
The adjutant's face was deathly pale. He subconsciously clenched his fists, his breathing coming to a halt.
Only Kaiaolen remained calm, his gaze fixed tightly on the center of the light.
He did not believe Ye Chuan would die.
A moment later, the light gradually dissipated, and the smoke and dust slowly settled.
A tall and straight figure still stood in mid-air with his hands behind his back. His robes fluttered, his hair was unruffled, and black energy flowed around him. There was not even a single scratch on him.
Ye Chuan looked down, that faint trace of contempt still hanging on his face, as if the Super Magitek Cannon bombardment just now was nothing more than a passing breeze.
"Super Magitek Cannon? Not bad power." Ye Chuan admitted that the power of this thing was not low.
But compared to my light, it's still lacking a bit.
"H-how is this possible?!" The moment he saw Ye Chuan, the smile on Alex's face froze instantly, his green pupils shrinking drastically, full of disbelief.
"He's actually fine?! This is impossible! It's impossible for the power of the Super Magitek Cannon not to hurt him!"
Beside him, Prince Marcus also changed his expression. The unease at the bottom of his heart began to spread; this human's strength far exceeded their imagination.
Ye Chuan said, "Do you have any more moves? If not, bring your heads up here yourselves."
"Otherwise, when you die in a bit, you won't even be able to keep your corpses intact. Yes, I'm talking to you."
"Arrogant! So arrogant!" Alex was completely enraged. His remaining humanity was swallowed by monstrous brutality. Dark purple tentacles surged wildly around his body, and his skin split open, revealing writhing fleshy tumors and eyes underneath!
His arms transformed into giant claw blades several meters long, the tips gleaming with a chilling light.
He no longer concealed his parasitic form, completely erupting with the monster's origin power. His aura skyrocketed several times over, far surpassing an ordinary Tier 7 powerhouse!
"Die!" Alex roared, turning into a stream of light. His figure lunged at Ye Chuan like a phantom, and the giant claw blades swung out viciously with a sharp sound that tore through space!
Just the wind from the claws turned into two pitch-black waves of air that spread outward. The forest thousands of meters behind him was instantly sliced flat at the waist, sending broken wood flying everywhere!
Two bottomless abysses were carved into the ground; the destructive power was horrifying to the extreme!
"Hand-to-hand combat?"
Seeing this, Ye Chuan smiled. He raised his hand and threw a punch. There was no flashy magic, only extreme, pure brute force!
"Charged Punch."
The peak of the fist collided with the claw blades. A muffled, massive boom shook the heaven and earth, and Alex only felt an irresistible, immense force transmitting from his claw blades!
The bones all over his body cracked, and his dark purple body instantly ruptured, sending blood and fleshy tumors splattering!
"What do you think I stacked so many stats for?"
Raw numbers!
"Ah!" Alex let out a shrill, miserable scream as his entire body was smashed into the ground by Ye Chuan's punch.
"Boom!" After the loud noise, the earth caved in violently, forming a giant crater hundreds of meters in diameter!
Smoke and dust filled the air, and crushed stones flew everywhere. A tremor akin to a landslide and earth-shattering quake swept all around, causing the very land to tremble slightly.
Alex was smashed into the bottom of the crater. He twitched a few times before going completely still. His giant claw blades were broken, the tentacles around his body drooped limply, and he completely lost the ability to resist.
An instant kill!
The entire scene was dead silent.
The soldiers of the Royal City Army widened their eyes, their faces full of terror, forgetting even to breathe.
The distant Allied soldiers also froze in place, immediately followed by an outburst of unbelievable exclamations.
One punch! With just one punch, he crippled that monster stronger than a Tier 7?
This strength was simply absurdly perverse!
At this moment, a trace of understanding flashed through Kaiaolen's eyes. Sure enough, Xi Xi's strength was simply beyond their imagination.
Although he did not know why he hid his strength when being chased and beaten by him earlier.
There must have been some reason.
Looking at Alex at the bottom of the crater, Prince Marcus was frightened out of his wits. Only one thought remained in his heart:
Run! This human was fundamentally not someone they could contend with!
He no longer hesitated. The tentacles around his body exerted force fiercely as he turned to flee as a dark shadow, attempting to escape this death trap.
But just as he moved, Ye Chuan instantly disappeared from his spot. In the next second, he flashed behind him and raised his hand for another punch, blasting accurately onto his head.
"Hmph, trying to escape?"
"Crack!" Prince Marcus's head was blown apart like a watermelon, dark purple blood and brain tissue splattering everywhere!
The opponent's remaining tentacles twitched a few times before falling heavily to the ground, completely devoid of life.
Another instant kill!
A single-move decapitation, clean and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.
Ye Chuan casually flicked the stains off his hand, his indifferent gaze sweeping down toward the Royal City Army camp below.
"Kill him! We can't let him live! For our compatriots!"
Seeing this, those soldiers completely descended into madness. They tore their skin apart and transformed into humanoid monsters, dark purple tentacles and eyes covering their bodies, roaring as they lunged toward Ye Chuan!
The densely packed monsters surged like a tide, blotting out the sky and the sun. There were a good hundred thousand of them, their auras intertwining to form a suffocating coercion, as if to completely swallow Ye Chuan.
"Quick! Send troops to support!"
Seeing this, Kaiaolen immediately gave the order. The Allied soldiers also tightly gripped their weapons, ready to charge.
But just as they moved their feet, they were completely shocked by the scene before their eyes, unable to take another step forward.
Ye Chuan looked at the incoming monster tide and slowly raised his hand. The dark gold Human Emperor Banner emerged from his palm, fluttering and snapping wildly without any wind.
"Light Attribute Holy Boundless Divine Purifying Evil Domain, open!"
Ye Chuan spoke softly. His voice was not loud, yet everyone present heard it.
Instantly, with Ye Chuan at the center, the domain of the Human Emperor Banner spread out, enveloping the entire battlefield.
Within the domain, time and space seemed to stand still. Countless pitch-black chains appeared out of thin air, like dormant venomous snakes, sweeping toward the monster tide!
Wailing sounds echoed from the chains. Wherever they passed, the monsters could not even let out a scream before their bodies were instantly pierced through, their forms disintegrating inch by inch into flying ash.
Chains crisscrossed like a giant net, enveloping all the monsters so completely that not a single one could escape!
In just a few short seconds, tens of thousands of monsters were instantly wiped out. Within the domain, nothing remained but glowing motes of souls dancing in the air.
These motes of light were drawn in by the suction of the Human Emperor Banner, continuously streaming into the flag and converting into its energy. The dark gold light grew even richer, and its oppressive aura became increasingly terrifying.
With over a hundred thousand souls collected, it directly triggered a massive boost in attributes!
"Heh heh heh heh heh, let me purify your hearts," Ye Chuan said. Coupled with the eerie, ghost-like wails and howling of souls emanating from the Human Emperor Banner, the allied forces were completely dumbfounded.
This...
Was just a bit weird.
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
