Chapter 475: Planet Siege
Just imagining that scene tells you how spectacular it was.
Under the combined push of Superman Clark and Carol,
This asteroid, in the Vacuum Environment of Space, reached supersonic speeds at one point. Given the scale of this asteroid, if not for Clark Kent empowering it with his bio-electric field,
This asteroid would have been crushed by its own potential energy the moment it was moved.
Not to mention being pushed across tens of millions of kilometers at such high speed and kinetic energy. The Tang Group's developed Space-Based Weapon, the "Rod of God," dropped a tungsten rod weighing over ten tons from Low Earth Orbit.
The impact caused by the gravitational acceleration of a ten-plus-ton tungsten rod is comparable to the power of a small nuclear bomb explosion.
How much more so for an asteroid with a mass comparable to The Moon? Facing this asteroid thousands of kilometers in diameter charging straight at him,
Especially seeing it rapidly crashing towards him,
Even wearing the Infinity Gauntlet and holding three Infinity Stones, Thanos couldn't help but change his expression.
Feeling the threat, he turned and extended his palm towards the asteroid's direction.
A purple halo emanated from the Power Stone on the Infinity Gauntlet. The next second, this purple halo expanded into a Purple Light Beam hundreds of kilometers in size,
Meeting the asteroid head-on.
Simultaneously, on the Infinity Gauntlet on Thanos's Right Hand, the Reality Stone flashed red light, transforming into a dark red light shield hundreds of kilometers in size, protecting himself within it.
"Boom boom boom boom—"
The purple light beam that shot up violently struck the asteroid rushing in at super speed—
The high origin/source specifications of the Power Stone go without saying.
It represents the origin/source rules of the entire universe's strength. Ronan the Accuser once easily destroyed a planet dozens of times larger than this asteroid using the Power Stone's ability.
Using a powerful point to attack a surface, the result is naturally self-evident.
Under the push of Clark Kent and Carol, the asteroid's immense potential energy and kinetic energy were almost unstoppable.
It could even easily destroy a star or disrupt a planetary system like the Solar System, but the fundamental specifications of the Power Stone were simply too high…
This was like smashing a piece of tofu accelerated to supersonic speed against an indestructible sharp iron skewer.
The result was predictable!
While the speed of this asteroid was certainly fast enough, it hadn't reached the prerequisite speed to change matter.
If the speed of this asteroid could reach lightspeed, perhaps it could directly impact the Power Stone with that potential energy.
But accelerating an asteroid thousands of kilometers in diameter to lightspeed, the energy source consumed, and the strength that represents...
Perhaps Boss Tang, whose cultivation base has reached the Golden Immortal level, could do it.
If Clark Kent could advance to Golden Superman, or even further to Thought Superman.
He could definitely do it too.
However, once his strength reached that point, he would be fully capable of directly confronting Thanos in his complete body, wielding six Infinity Stones, and wouldn't need to use planets as weapons anymore.
Under the Power Stone's purple shockwave, the asteroid thousands of kilometers in diameter was directly blasted with a massive hole hundreds of kilometers in area!
From afar, the entire asteroid looked like a candied hawthorn skewer threaded onto a purple toothpick.
However, this candied hawthorn skewer didn't slow down because it was pierced by this toothpick. Even the lava from the planet's core sprayed out, instantly frozen into large patches of obsidian scattered in Space.
"Pfft!"
Clark Kent spat out a mouthful of blood. It was precisely because he had used his bio-electric field to envelop this planet that the asteroid could withstand such high speed potential energy and kinetic energy.
But when the Power Stone's lightwave pierced through the asteroid, it instantly pierced through his bio-electric field as well. The feeling was similar to being stabbed through the body with a stick.
Clark Kent forcefully used his bio-electric field to re-envelop the asteroid that was on the verge of disintegrating under the purple light beam. Gritting his bleeding teeth, he fiercely pushed it towards Thanos.
Carol glanced at Clark Kent worriedly, but she knew this wasn't the time for hesitation. Gritting her teeth, she pushed the asteroid with all her might. With the lightspeed engine inside her running at full speed, every one of her cells seemed to be burning with light flame, and the speed of the entire asteroid doubled.
Boom! The asteroid thousands of kilometers in diameter heavily smashed into the dark red light shield! Heaven knows how much force erupted from the impact of the two.
All that could be seen was a mushroom cloud stretching for hundreds of thousands of kilometers exploding in this Star Zone.
Countless dust and gravel were directly blown away by the shockwave that swept across tens of millions of kilometers.
Under this shockwave that swept across tens of millions of kilometers,
Those warships that had lost their masters at some unknown time and turned into ghost ships were directly thrown away.
Smoke and dust rose everywhere. In the environment where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, a golden three-headed dragon shadow flashed through the smoke and dust.
Wherever the dragon shadow passed, those masterless alien warships directly disappeared within the smoke and dust.
...
Under this immense and incredible power, even the light shield condensed by the Reality Stone was instantly torn into countless red light streams scattering randomly.
"Hehehehehehe—"
As the smoke and dust dispersed, a purple figure walked out from the smoke and dust, laughing maniacally, under the solemn gaze of Clark Kent and Carol.
Thanos reached out and stroked the wound on his face caused by the streaking light.
A terrifying smile appeared on his lips. He extended his hand and beckoned towards Clark Kent and Carol in a provocation.
Clark Kent accelerated, appearing before Thanos at an extremely fast speed, almost like teleportation. He swung his fist towards Thanos's head.
"Have you forgotten the previous lesson!" Thanos let out a strange laugh. He clenched his Right Hand into a fist, and his Right Hand, wearing the Infinity Gauntlet, smashed fiercely towards Clark Kent's fist.
A purple sun shone brightly in front of Thanos's fist.
Two equally immense forces collided with each other, a head-on collision with no room for buffer.
Clark Kent let out a muffled groan. His Right Hand immediately went limp. He could even clearly hear the sound of his finger bones fracturing. He was sent flying by that great strength. His five zang organs and six fu organs trembled, and he opened his mouth to spray out a mouthful of blood.
"How interesting, your strength is above mine! But before the absolute strength of the Power Stone, what does your little bit of strength count for?" Thanos looked down at Clark Kent and Carol, who was helping him up, with arrogance! Facing Carol, who charged forward defiantly, Thanos opened his large hand, and a double-edged war blade abruptly appeared in his hand.
With a distant swing, the next moment, the battle blade, imbued with the Soul Stone's orange light, whistled as it slashed towards Carol.
"Clang!"
Carol swung her fists, trying to block the double-edged war blade. But when her fist collided with the battle blade's blade, the sharp blade directly left a deep wound, visible to the bone, on her indestructible fist.
The orange light attached to the battle blade gave her a painful feeling of her soul being devoured. The intense pain made Carol unable to help but crouch down, clutching her head.
Buzz! Cold light flashed in Thanos's eyes. Without hesitation, he commanded the battle blade to slash towards Carol's neck.
Whoosh whoosh—
In the moment of crisis, two crimson heat rays accurately landed on the double-edged war blade, blasting it away.
Thanos raised his hand and caught the double-edged war blade back into his palm. His gaze fell upon Clark Kent. While Clark Kent used his left hand to hold his fractured hand bone, his eyes filled with two streaks of red light—
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Thanos looked at Clark Kent, unwilling to show weakness. The next second, two powerful beams of cosmic energy also shot out from his eyes. Blazing white rays intertwined with crimson heat rays—
Red light and white light collided across hundreds of kilometers. Their clash exploded into large patches of brilliant sparks—
"Whoosh!"
A high-energy light beam hundreds of meters thick suddenly struck from a distance, blasting towards Thanos!
Thanos's figure quickly flashed. The light beam grazed past him and landed in the pitch black Space, instantly exploding into a ball of fireworks dozens of kilometers wide.
Thanos looked up. Hundreds of kilometers away, a spaceship warship nearly ten thousand meters long was clearly docked. It was Sanctuary II, one of his personal vessels.
"A bunch of insects!" Thanos let out a muffled roar. He raised his Right Hand, and the Reality Stone condensed a ball of red light. This ball of red light landed at his feet, instantly transforming into the Void Throne. A light screen rose from the Void Throne, directly blocking the two incoming heat rays.
He lifted his foot and stepped onto the Void Throne. The Void Throne flashed, instantly traversing hundreds of kilometers and appearing in front of the Sanctuary Ship.
Inside the Sanctuary Ship's command cabin, Captain America used the artificial intelligence FRIDAY on the Ant-Man suit, combined with their prior control over the Black Order High-level Staff on Sanctuary II, to gain control and operate the spaceship.
Seeing Clark Kent and Carol falling into a disadvantage, and Thanos about to launch an attack on the entire Solar System, he could only use the Sanctuary Ship to launch an attack on Thanos.
He just didn't expect that as soon as they fired a shot, Thanos had already crossed hundreds of kilometers and arrived before them.
Through the porthole, Captain America clearly saw Thanos's cold face. The moment he saw that vertically striped chin, Captain America thought of a certain pair of sneakers on Earth.
"He really is ugly!"
Thanos raised his Right Hand. A purple halo condensed from the Reality Stone on the Infinity Gauntlet.
Amidst an eruption of purple light, Captain America let out the last sigh of his life! Watching the Sanctuary Ship turn into ash in a flash of purple light—
Superman (nickname Da Chao) let out a silent roar. He flew forward, intending to fight Thanos to the death. The next moment, he was sent flying tens of thousands of kilometers in a flash of purple light.
In a Dimensional Space different from the Reality World, Hela watched Thanos swaggering with the strength of the Infinity Stones, a flicker of defiance in her eyes! She had slaughtered dozens of planets and absorbed the blood of countless living beings to refine the Blood Scripture. Her strength could be said to have advanced by leaps and bounds, especially after recently devouring the counterpart of this universe.
Hela believed her strength was not much different from the Great Asura strength recorded in the Blood Scripture, yet she had lost a blood river after being struck by Thanos using the Power Stone.
Naturally, her arrogant heart was filled with ten thousand points of defiance. She watched as Frank froze Johnny's corpse and put it away.
A wave of bloodlight suddenly flowed over Hela's body, and her black long hair fluttered up. She raised her arm and, from across a dimension, sent a blood palm seal towards the back of Thanos.
Seeing Hela make a move, Frank's heart also surged with ferocity. Having followed Boss for so long, he had never suffered such a great loss.
With a roar, he transformed into his Zhu Yan true form, a ferocious ape a thousand meters tall, burning with blood flame from head to toe.
He swung the Dark Gold Great Staff, which had also grown larger and thicker. Taking a step, he flashed out of this Dimensional Space and reappeared above Thanos's head, smashing the staff down towards Thanos.
Behind Frank, Old Demon Dragon let out a strange laugh and raised the Wutu Mountain Driving Whip—
Beelzebub, who was holding the back of a white bone skeleton's neck bone in his hand, rolled his eyes. Large patches of green mist separated from his body and surged towards Thanos.
The smug Thanos was watching Clark Kent with a condescending gaze, seemingly mocking his overestimation of his own abilities.
The next second, in The Void Behind one's Back, a silent blood palm seal suddenly appeared on his back.
"Bang!"
Only when the blood palm seal touched his back did Thanos sense a surge of great strength from The Void Behind one's Back.
Crack!
The Void Throne's barrier under the blood palm seal directly shattered. Thanos let out a muffled groan and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Feeling that strange strength behind him trying to erode Inside the Body.
Thanos quickly used the Reality Stone's strength to raise a crimson barrier around his entire body! Bang! The blood palm seal struck this barrier and immediately broke, transforming into hundreds of misty Blood God Clones.
These Blood God Clones' bodies were shifting between illusion and reality. They probed around Thanos over a dozen times but were unable to break through the Reality Stone's barrier.
They simply swarmed forward and completely devoured the blood orb that Thanos had spat out.
Thanos watched these human form blood mist, constantly shifting between illusion and reality, with an ugly complexion. Purple light flowed from the Power Stone in his hand.
Just as he was about to use the Reality Stone's strength to completely annihilate these strange crimson monsters.
A violent wind sound suddenly struck from above his head.
Thanos raised his head, only to see a heavy Dark Gold Great Staff already smashing down towards his head.
Frank's body had transformed to a height of a thousand meters. He glared fiercely, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty radiance, and swung the Dark Gold Great Staff, whose volume had also expanded countless times, down towards Thanos's head.
Thanos clenched his Right Hand. Purple light bloomed from the Infinity Gauntlet.
Bang! Frank's staff heavily struck the rising purple barrier.
"Dong!"
A powerful shockwave spread outwards, directly stirring up a massive hurricane over an area of several thousand kilometers.
Frank's staff heavily struck the purple light emanating from the Power Stone. He only felt a huge rebound force sweeping through his entire body along the Dark Gold Great Staff.
Although this rebound strength was neutralized by his powerful Zhu Yan true form.
It didn't cause him much fatal damage.
But under the impact of this great strength, he was like duckweed floating in the wind.
He was directly sent flying hundreds of kilometers by the shock.
In the end, it was Clark Kent who caught him, helping him stabilize his figure.
...
Bang! Just as Thanos sent Frank flying with a fist, a large hand covered in black dragon scales unexpectedly reached out from behind him, holding a gold whip.
It smashed wildly against the back of the head of Thanos, like hammering iron.
Even though his entire body was enveloped in an energy barrier manifested by the Reality Stone.
But this Wutu Mountain Driving Whip was a divine artifact that had nearly blown off Allfather Odin's head.
Old Demon Dragon whipped down hundreds of times in a row.
Even with the Reality Stone protecting him, caught off guard,
Thanos's back of the head was still numb from hundreds of consecutive whips, and he was smashed face-first onto the ground.
Just as he struggled to get up, a mass of green mist completely enveloped him.
