Boom!!
Beneath a sky stained crimson and black, Crimson Gold Flames transformed into a soaring tiger.
Meanwhile, a flame pillar surged hundreds of meters, its violent energy churning and never ceasing.
The Black Tide Creatures swarming above the city shattered simultaneously, the black flood momentarily torn apart, leaving a gaping hole.
"How could this be?!"
"That was My Lord's Bloodmelt Space! How did he escape?!"
The black-robed figure and the Batfolk's expressions darkened as they stared up at the towering young man amidst the swirling flames.
His bare torso seemed scorching hot, with wisps of white mist rising and dissipating.
Bulging veins, as if ignited by the Scarlet Gold flames, writhed and contracted across his rock-carved muscles.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that aside from extreme stamina depletion, he hadn't sustained a single injury.
This scene was etched into everyone's memory. Flying General Zhao and the others, forced to halt their self-detonation, stared blankly, their eyes trembling.
Gusts of wind swept through, carrying dust and debris across their faces.
The collapsing world seemed to pause for a few seconds. When they finally snapped out of their daze and confirmed it wasn't a hallucination,
"Grandmaster Chen?"
"Grandmaster Chen has returned?!"
"It really is Grandmaster Chen!!!"
Clenched fists, flushed faces.
Excited shouts erupted one after another, spreading like a tide throughout Nanjiang City.
"I knew it! Fengzi would never die!"
Lin Hao pounded his leg excitedly within his Force Field Shield, the bloodshot veins in his eyes receding.
Chen Yun and the others from the Flame Tiger Martial Arts Hall swayed, all their previous pallid worry and fear replaced by excitement and elation.
Even the usually composed Chu Shihong and the aloof Meng Anran trembled, their eyes bright with excitement as they clenched their fists.
In stark contrast.
"He's still alive..."
Frowning slightly, Kromode, closest to the scene in the high sky, revealed a hint of surprise.
Two figures stood side by side, one on the left and one on the right, positioned before the dark gate of the void rift, yet simultaneously rooted in the center of the city within the Barrier.
Towering buildings lay crushed beneath their feet, the black flood momentarily stilling as countless crimson eyes turned to stare.
"You want to kill me? You're not worthy."
Chen Feng spoke calmly, the white steam billowing from his body gradually dissipating.
The Heart of Life in his chest began to surge with restorative power. The bulging veins subsided, the burning, explosive Force gradually calming.
To break through the Bloodmelt Space, he had lingered at the bottom of the Blood Sea, finally reaching the edge of the world.
During the struggle, Chen Feng had expended most of his stamina resisting the corrosive forces with the Cosmic Incineration Force. He then unleashed the Azure Armor Limit Break State and the Horn Strike, finally shattering the restraints and returning to the world.
Fortunately,
Glancing around, he saw skyscrapers collapsing, but the crowd remained.
He hadn't returned too late.
"Arrogant!"
Buzz!!
Suddenly, Kromode narrowed his eyes, his voice cold as he waved his hand.
The black torrents filling the sky, teeming with countless Black Tide Creatures, instantly changed direction.
The onslaught that had been aimed at the defensive lines below and the ground veered like an arrow, converging on Chen Feng like a swarm of locusts.
Hundreds, even thousands, of creatures filled the sky, their killing intent and malice permeating the air.
Horned Crocodile Behemoths, Griffin creatures, Mutated Serpentfolk, Phosphor Hellhounds... Among them were many Fifth-Tier creatures, and a few Sixth-Tier ones.
Everyone's gaze froze as they watched the black torrents engulf him.
The Military's defensive lines below experienced a brief respite, but no one felt relieved. Instead, their expressions grew grim. While continuing their barrage with Sniper Cannons and other heavy firepower, they looked up at the sky with a flicker of hope.
So many Black Tide Creatures...
Could Grandmaster Chen hold out?
"Even if he escaped the Bloodmelt Space, he must have expended a tremendous amount of energy."
"There's no way he can last long!"
As if sensing their hopes and thoughts, the black-robed figure suddenly let out a cold laugh. He leaped down to the center of the deep crater, landing with his foot on Flying General Zhao's chest.
The deliberate provocation undoubtedly stirred everyone's nerves. Only despair could temporarily suppress the rules, allowing the descending power to continue growing.
The thought flashed through his mind. He withdrew his gaze, meeting Flying General Zhao's furious expression, and continued coldly, "Yes, that's the kind of anger I want."
"The angrier, the better. Because you'll realize your own helplessness."
"My Lord will personally intervene. He's nothing more than fish on the chopping block. But don't worry, because when he dies—"
Boom!!
The world trembled. Blazing Flame erupted like a volcanic eruption, illuminating the world.
Before the deliberately provocative words could finish, the sky-filling black torrent had already been completely vaporized.
A massive gap appeared in the overwhelming encirclement. With the naked eye, one could see Chen Feng standing within, his arm cocked back for a punch, his pale face gradually flushing red.
Crack, crack, crack, crack!
The Glazed Crystal, like liquid, spread across his entire body once more.
Strands of golden Physical Body power surged from his pores, coalescing into a three-foot-tall, invisible aura.
Action was the best proof. The black-robed man's expression froze, and Kromode in the sky frowned.
"Recovery ability?"
Whoosh!!
The moment the voice of doubt landed, a sonic boom erupted, the air exploding into a perfect sphere.
Every Black Tide Creature in the path of the blast was annihilated. A punch reinforced by golden light and Glazed Crystal shattered the sky and slammed into Kromode.
Boom!!!
The heavens trembled, the air roiled.
A terrifying gale, like invisible blades, tore through everything around them, causing both Black Tide Creatures and skyscrapers to explode.
Amidst the deafening explosions, the two figures at the center of the world met fist and palm, their eyes locked.
"You actually dared to strike," Kromode said, his brow furrowing deeper as he stared at Chen Feng's charging fist, his voice icy.
A mere human who had just reached the Angelic realm dared to truly provoke him.
"Strike?" Chen Feng sneered. "It's more than that."
Buzz!!!
The golden light radiating from his body rapidly compressed, and his Acupoints were violently stimulated.
His combat power surged once more, and his face, wreathed in flames, bared a chilling grin.
"I'm going to kill you."
Boom!!
His fist vibrated, unleashing a torrent of Kuangran Force.
Kromode was sent flying backward, and Chen Feng transformed into Thunder Light, soaring into the sky to pursue him.
Boom boom boom!!
Fists and feet collided, the sonic booms echoing through the air.
Two figures instantly transformed into streaks of light and shadow that surpassed Mach speed, leaving only crimson and Scarlet Gold clashing in the azure sky.
This spectacle left onlookers swallowing hard. Wang Zhou, the young man, huddled in the corner of a building, his eyes fixed on the sky, filled with excitement. Chu Shihong and the others watched with hope burning brighter in their eyes.
"Impossible!!"
The black-robed figure suddenly shrieked, his voice hysterical, as if he couldn't believe his faith's master could be held back by a mere human.
On the other side, the Demonic Bat-folk's crimson eyes flickered, their crimson glow dimming and brightening. Finally, he withdrew his gaze from the battle above and turned toward Red Wave Energy's temporary headquarters.
"My Lord is here. None can resist."
"Since he's so eager to show off, then..."
With a sinister smile, he spread his bat wings, unleashing a cone-shaped shockwave that surged toward the building.
The central command center of the defense line was located here, where Federation and Military high-ranking commanders like Chu Shihong and Han Chao had gathered.
Even representatives from mega-corporations like Lin Hao and Meng Anran were being protected at the center of the formation.
"Not good!"
In an instant, Han Chao and the others' expressions shifted. They immediately grasped the Demonic Bat-folk's intent.
The flying shadow grew closer, the air around it vibrating with a piercing whistle.
"Open fire!"
"Stop him!!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Sniper Cannons and Energy Cannons erupted once more, blasting forth. Modified Humans and Cyborgs stood their ground, forming a defensive line.
But...
Shatter!
Pitch-black bat wings suddenly unfurled, forcefully deflecting all Flying Shuttles and cannon shells.
Even the supersonic Energy Cannons couldn't touch them, merely brushing past as they soared toward the building.
Armored Vehicles and tanks were crushed and twisted by the overwhelming force, cracks spiderwebbing across the blue-light-shrouded Force Field Shield.
"Let's see how he can protect you all when he's stretched thin!"
The Batfolk sneered cruelly, knowing this would distract Chen Feng and create more opportunities.
With a surge of power, he shattered the final Force Field protecting the building.
His bat wings blotted out the sky, slashing down like razor-sharp blades.
Cyborgs and armored vehicles were pinned to the ground by the intense wind pressure, cracks rapidly spreading across the earth in all directions.
"Die, all of you!"
Boom!!!
A flash of platinum light streaked across the sky, shattering the earth beneath.
A pillar of energy shot skyward, piercing hundreds of meters into the air.
Every Black Tide Creature along the way had been instantly annihilated. The Demonic Bat-folk's massive bat wings were brutally torn apart, leaving him suspended in mid-air, frozen in place.
His final strike never landed. He lowered his head in disbelief, staring at his chest and abdomen.
A circular blood hole had appeared out of nowhere. Below him, standing on the ground, was a towering figure with platinum skin, wearing a crown.
The clenched fist slowly unclenched, the rock-like arm dropping to his side.
"H-H-H..."
The Batfolk opened his mouth, his expression one of utter disbelief.
A single punch from a distance had pierced through him. Could it be that this man was also...
Boom!!
His body exploded, and his bat wings crashed to the ground.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the platinum-skinned figure. Chu Shihong and the others were still reeling from the shock, unable to react.
In stark contrast, the black-robed man standing on Flying General Zhao's chest paled dramatically. He immediately tried to retreat and dodge.
But it was too late.
Thud!!
The platinum figure, moving with terrifying weight, slammed into the ground, causing the earth to rumble.
The rock-like fist, unleashed with unstoppable force, shattered any remaining hope.
Boom!!
The identical shattered bodies were completely erased, leaving no trace behind.
Only the final footprints remained, then dissolved into mud as Flying General Zhao snapped out of his shock.
"You..."
Zhao Fei opened his mouth, finding the Platinum Giant both familiar and alien.
Such immense power... could it be...?
"A Legendary-grade Biological Cyborg?"
Someone on the building recovered from their shock and spoke in disbelief. Meng Anran and Lin Hao's eyes narrowed, memories flooding back.
The White Giant?
But how? When did he become a Legendary-grade Cyborg?
One unbelievable speculation followed another, their expressions shifting.
No one answered.
Only the Platinum Giant's airborne form spread its wings and soared into the sky, hovering at the forefront of the crumbling defense line of aircraft and heavy weaponry. With a leap, it landed directly opposite the dark gate.
Wind howled, fists clenched tight.
A relentless tide of Black Tide Creatures poured forth.
Then, with a flash of golden light, it unleashed a double-fisted strike!!
