Actually, he already had this ability before. The principle is not complicated: it involves manipulating energy to gather beneath his feet and then stepping up to ascend to the sky. However, it lacked practical usage before, coupled with his unfamiliarity, and today is the first time he’s using it.
The sky was already covered by the Thunder Pool, making the whole world brightly lit.
Watching the struggling Yamata no Orochi below, Su Huan raised his hand to the sky, as if grabbing the ethereal blue firmament in his grasp and forcefully pulling it down!
Liquid lightning quickly enveloped his hand, extending at the end to form a spearhead, its tail stretching past his shoulder and connecting to the heavens.
The spear, over twenty meters long, with its thickest end spreading nearly a thousand meters across the sky.
An advanced version of the Spear of Divine Punishment.
Without any chaotic noise, the Thunder Liquid flowed like water along the spear shaft, with complex energy patterns extending from his arm to the long spear in his hand.
The Yamata no Orochi was stupefied; from its perspective, it seemed as if the entire sky was crashing down.
How the hell is it supposed to defend against this?
How did these little bugs, who only know about sacrificing their kind, suddenly become so powerful?
It wanted to escape, but it was too late.
"Boom——"
An explosion comparable to the destruction of Chongying City spread above the lake, crashing against the cliff face, then spreading out towards the distant sea channel.
The just-arrived Lord Lian frowned, turned back, raised her hand to shield her eyes, as a gentle Gang Qi appeared around her, and a storm carrying sand, metal debris, tore towards her, slicing a decaying small boat in half as it hit her.
The surrounding ground shattered; whether it was soil, plants, or manmade objects, all were swept away, as if a giant hand had scraped over it, with the explosion’s aftermath scouring a meter of depth from the ground.
Only the woman stood firm as a nail in place, her large mink coat howling wildly.
A moment later, the storm began to subside.
Lord Lian’s bright eyes dimmed slightly, murmuring something about cutting off retreat, realizing that bastard had clearly found an excuse to get her out of the way!
The lake water receded with a rumbling crash, the entire surface echoing with deafening sounds, water mist obscuring the whole valley. As Lord Lian hesitated about finding a place to avoid the red surge, a shadow surged forth along with the erupting black water wave.
Her pretty face immediately turned cold, taking a step back, readying her posture, staring at the black shadow in front of her.
A low shout.
A fierce, unparalleled fist smashed forward, although it carried none of Su Huan’s earth-shattering might, the seven or eight meter high torrent in front of her was nonetheless shattered by this ferocious punch.
A small snake over ten meters long was thrown from the water, landing on the ground beside it.
It twitched a few times, then went silent.
Lord Lian turned around, her gaze fixed tightly on the estuary a hundred kilometers away, as a murky pressure weighed heavily from that direction, distinctly the threat equivalent to a Tier Three Evolution Beast.
Perhaps sensing the death of the Yamata no Orochi, the creature from the sea let out an angry roar.
The penetrating sound traveled over a hundred kilometers, causing the ground beneath to tremble slightly.
A black shadow appeared silently beside her.
Lord Lian couldn’t help but ask, "What’s in the sea?"
Hearing this question, Su Huan couldn’t help but think of the whale that had swallowed a train underwater, taking many days to finally kill it, it was greasy and terribly unpalatable...
Not to mention that deep-sea tube worm that kept him from basking in the sun properly for over a month.
"There is quite a lot to eat though."
Su Huan smacked his lips.
Lord Lian then remembered that Su Huan had fought his way over from the Acid Rain Zone, which included a large area known as the Flood Zone.
"The Flood Zone, it also connects to the sea, right?"
"Yes, of course."
"I heard it’s more dangerous than the Spore Zone, a Celestial Disaster Zone."
"It’s alright."
Su Huan thought for a moment, aside from that sea vortex, it really wasn’t all that dangerous, he kind of missed those crabs, there seemed to be quite a lot left in the freezer on the train, he could make some to eat tonight.
Thinking of this, Su Huan casually extended an invitation to Lord Lian, standing beside him, "I’ll let you taste the sea tonight."
The woman’s face stiffened, her fists clenching with a snapping sound.
"Get lost!"
Turning around, she walked away.
Immersed in the memories of delicious crabs, Su Huan was stunned for a moment, his eyes widening slightly.
This woman, if she doesn’t want to eat, she doesn’t have to curse! How rude.
After a long time without a response from the Yamata no Orochi, the sea creature finally chose to retreat.
Su Huan walked to the black snake beside the shore, casually giving it a nudge with his foot.
The snake, which appeared dead, suddenly opened its cold eyes and lunged at Su Huan with its bloody mouth wide open.
"Bang!"
Su Huan lightly gestured, and the creature, as if hit by a cannonball, its body flickering and crackling violently, was truly dead this time.
This snake looked far prettier than the Yamata no Orochi, presenting a blue hue overall, with black rings around it. Su Huan boldly guessed that this might very well be the offspring of the Yamata no Orochi, and that creature from the sea might just be its mate.
It’s a pity that the beast was smart, just shouting from outside and never coming in.
Su Huan had no intention of running into the sea to catch an Evolution Beast.
Just leave it at that.
Su Huan picked up the small snake, walked over to the Yamata no Orochi, and with a casual grab, activated the "Absolute Domain", wrapping the entire body of the Yamata no Orochi evenly with energy, then pulled it upwards.
Although the Yamata seemed like a failed evolution, it was still a Tier Three Evolution Beast.
Combined with the tiger and turtle, the train this time finally had enough Tier Three materials.
Just it’s uncertain if Wan Xing could collect them.
Because there were fewer battles, evolvers involved in research and logistics often evolve slowly, slowing down scientific progress.
There’s no helping it, expanding influence is unlike personal strength improvement, often troubled by minor issues.
After collection, there’s still analysis, design, manufacturing, improvement...
Who knows when these materials will be fully utilized?
When Su Huan returned dragging two snakes, the crowd wasn’t overly surprised. After all, Evolution Beasts, no matter how terrifying, were not as mind-boggling as wiping out a nation with a snap of fingers.
However, Lian Jin sneaked over covertly, quietly asking, "Did you make my sister angry?"
Su Huan gave him a sympathetic look, "Did she kick you?"
Lian Jin was taken aback, "How did you know?"
Su Huan patted his shoulder, "Wipe off the shoe print on your face, next time I will criticize her for you. For such a big guy, always getting kicked in the face, what’s that about?"
Lian Jin: "..."
Seeing Old Jiang leading the people to clean the battlefield, Su Huan casually threw the two snakes on the ground, "We’re having crab on the train tonight, bring your sister if you want to eat."
’Crab?!’
Lian Jin’s eyes turned red with envy. Having a mobile vehicle is great!
Wiping his mouth, he asked, "If my sister doesn’t go, can I?"
"Hehe."
Su Huan walked through the bustling crowd, heading leisurely toward the train.
The people made way silently, their eyes filled with a mix of complex emotions, following his departing figure.
Whether it was those from the train or Chongying and Donghuang People.
Among these gazes, besides the familiar reverence and admiration Su Huan was used to, there was also a hint of distance.
Even knowing Chongying was the enemy, watching hundreds of thousands or even more humans erased in an instant still leaves an instinctual tremor in the human heart, regardless of race or preference.
This is the cost.
Even taking the minimal path, it still exists.
Some say Donghuang soldiers never suffer post-war syndrome because they fight just wars.
How could that be.
It’s just that it’s shouldered by a few, not spoken to outsiders.
Su Huan walked slowly ahead, footsteps following him, all the way to the train’s side.
He stopped, turned back, and looked at the tall, thin man behind him, "You’ve followed me all this way, what’s the matter?"
Ding Hui instinctively opened his mouth, then remembered he had no tongue, using one hand as paper, quickly gesturing with his other hand on top, his gaze firmly looking at Su Huan.
Su Huan’s brow gradually relaxed, the corners of his mouth turned up.
The words read: My life is yours.
