Chapter 359: The Falling Black Sun! (Middle)
Because those countless Fusion Bombs, which bombarded over like flowers scattered by a heavenly maiden, actually had absolutely no effect at all!
That was a Fusion Bomb that could easily shatter an Earth Immortal Banzhu with just a single one!
It contained the ultimate destructive power of stellar force, and once it Burst forth it could almost be called a miniature star!
That terrifying energy was enough to destroy everything!
Yet these powerful Fusion Bombs had only just approached, and before they could unleash their power, they turned into duds and vanished with a "bang," and what followed was that the might of that "Black Sun" became even more terrifying!
The light grew all the more profound and deep…
It seemed as though all the power contained within them, before it could be released, was absorbed by that "Black Sun"!
"No, impossible?!"
"Intelligent Brain, quick! Use the Chuixing Pao!"
In their terror, those few researchers directly jumped up in shock, their pupils suddenly dilating, a pair of mouse-like ears constantly twitching, and a few traces of gravity faintly appearing on their faces. That was a Super Weapon that could shatter an Earth Immortal once it bloomed!
There was no time to think. Watching that "Black Sun" drawing ever closer, a creature as massive as an entire continent about to descend with a destructive attack, the few of them panicked and brought out their ultimate killing move—a planet-level weapon of destruction!
This was the crystallized peak creation belonging to the Earth Immortal yet faintly surpassing the Earthly Immortal Realm; with just one shot it could pierce through a planet, causing its interior to undergo violent change and completely explode, turning into a beautiful firework in Xingkong, thereby passively killing an entire civilization—such was this powerful weapon!
It was said to already possess the power of a single strike at the normal state of a True Immortal!
Chuixing Pao, Meteorite Cannon… these kinds of weapons were youthful weakened versions manufactured by imitating this weapon, creations from a terrifying civilization in another realm! That was a civilization even more terrifying than the Lingneng Clan!
As the Intelligent Brain received the order, one corner of the Lingneng Clan's base unfolded and transformed, slowly extending outward an exaggeratedly thick, jet-black, gleaming cannon barrel. As boundless energy poured into it in massive amounts, terrifying rhythms continuously rose from within, and wisps of destructive aura constantly drifted out.
The next second, a brilliant radiance lit up, terrifying energy fluctuations continuously brewing within, seeming about to gush forth, yet restrained tightly by a special force, constantly transforming its nature and structure.
Within a few breaths, as the Intelligent Brain indicated charging was complete, an astonishing spiral-shaped pillar of light was born!
The dazzling light surged out with an unstoppable momentum, its power so strong that even the surrounding air grew scorching hot, and the terrifying recoil even caused the Lingneng Clan's base to violently tremble. That was a stable base that had previously only trembled slightly when struck by the inexplicable bombardment of the Peak Mountain God—one could thus know how powerful this force was!
Facing such a terrifying attack, that falling "Black Sun" finally made a move. An even more profound and deep black light lit up, its form even growing considerably larger, its cold aura madly drifting out… no, that wasn't drifting out—it was the absorption effect produced by the "Black Sun" creature, starving for who knew how long, frantically squeezing itself under the host's command.
The "Black Sun" creature, empty and starving for who knew how long, was no longer passively absorbing the various energies that approached, but violently seizing and plundering them!
In an instant, the "Black Sun" and the pillar of light collided head-on!
This was an attack powerful enough to pierce through a planet contending against a mighty force capable of plundering a living planet into a frozen star in the blink of an eye!
The strong and majestic energy was continuously worn down, absorbed, while at the same time constantly eroding and destroying the "Black Sun" creature! Vast numbers of "Black Sun" creatures under this force were ceaselessly being born and perishing.
The stalemate lasted only a few seconds. The "Black Sun" seemed unable to hold up and began to tremble, then the condensed light cannon pierced through the Black Sun, causing it to lose a corner, which turned into countless black light powder drifting about, shrouding everything in a hazy, dreamlike veil, as if eternal night had descended!
But the "Black Sun" paid such an exaggerated price, and that cannon capable of blasting apart a planet was completely turned into its nourishment, giving birth to an even more terrifying dark light.
An even more powerful, even more tenacious, even more frantically energy-devouring "Black Sun" creature was born!
Those countless drifting light powders once again received the host's command and re-aggregated back!
In the blink of an eye, the light cannon that had just blazed triumphantly through the Black Sun had not yet had time to detonate before it abruptly ceased and was once again swallowed by the "Black Sun" creature!
It seemed to return once more to a situation of renewed stalemate and contention, but this time the "Black Sun" creature no longer gave the light cannon the chance to stalemate. Under the destruction and tempering of the light cannon, which was said to possess the mighty power of a single strike at the normal state of a True Immortal, an even more powerful "Black Sun" creature was born, having obtained abundant nourishment and evolved!
Logically speaking, the "Black Sun" creature normally in Symbiosis with Baichuan wouldn't be this exaggerated, but it couldn't withstand Baichuan's vigorous cultivation. Don't look at how the source of this ability was merely a derivative of the Energy Level 4 【Radiation Absorption】 ability—under circumstances where Baichuan himself, being mechanized, found it difficult to utilize ability potions, he had madly added a great deal of powerful force into this ability.
After all, he was about to face a True Immortal head-on. Without making thorough preparations, how could that be his style?
He, Baichuan, never did anything without certainty.
Therefore, he directly took a "Black Sun" creature similar to a mother worm of all sources as the Core, and bestowed upon it a large number of special abilities, such as abilities once from "Cang"—【Damage Evolution Lv4 (Extraordinary)】, 【Imitation Lv4 (Limit)】, 【Qi Attachment Lv5 (Internal)】, 【Energy Level 4 (Extraordinary)】, 【Reproduction Lv4 (Limit)】… and other abilities.
These abilities were initially rejected by this world, and that was only because the Lingneng Clan's "Ancestor" had set up a powerful prohibition, not allowing other unregistered external forces to touch this world. But under the protection of the remnant soul of the former World Lord Lingxin, this was no longer a problem.
After all, no matter what, Lingxin was once the master of this world. Even though she had fallen and been stripped of all control, the world born from her ultimately had a natural affinity toward her. This was also the reason why the Lingneng Clan's "Ancestor" so desperately wanted to extinguish her remnant Spirit.
Thus, a super symbiotic creature "Black Sun" was born, gathering together the source of extraordinary creatures, integrating infection, evolution, destruction, transformation, endlessness, Burst… into one!
This single "Black Sun" alone could be called a Level 5 super powerhouse, an Earth Immortal worthy of the name!
Only a being as special as Baichuan, possessing a foundation unimaginable to ordinary Earth Immortals, could accomplish this!
Whether he was still an Earth Immortal at all was yet unknown.
Every special world, every planet he experienced, everything he saw and heard, would become nourishment on his path of growth. As long as he did not die, he would ultimately become the most magnificent and powerful dragon spanning across this universe!
Possessing the Ability Panel, his situation was too special…
As the "Black Sun" evolved a second time and became stronger, that light cannon capable of destroying planets and comparable to a single strike at the normal state of a True Immortal finally began to wane, and then completely vanished without a trace.
An even more terrifying "Black Sun" descended!
"It's over…"
Yes, it was over.
On the enormous projection screen, those few detection and command personnel finally glimpsed its true appearance from within that shattered "Black Sun" in that instant—it was a perfectly intact continental Star Beast!
The corner that had been pierced was merely the special energy on its body that formed the massive outer shell of the "Black Sun." The true body of that cunning creature was actually curled up into a ball, located on the side half within that massive "Black Sun" that piled up several times its own size!
Their attack had hit the exact center of the "Black Sun," which was precisely avoided by that cunning creature curled up on the side! Its energy was moreover turned into its nourishment!
And now that cannon barrel was already so scorching hot it was nearly melting, clearly unable to fire a second shot…
Yes, the cautious Baichuan, even though he had already prepared to use the opponent's power to catalyze and strengthen the "Black Sun," still cautiously hid his true body by one or two layers.
Seeing this, Lingxin, whose remnant Spirit resided within that Spirit Seed carried by Baichuan, was also so shocked she couldn't close her mouth. It seemed the collaborator she had chosen was, perhaps, just a tiny bit cautious—truly unlike the Star Beast offspring she had once seen, who only ever liked to clash head-on…
Nevertheless, this indeed made her feel even more at ease. Having such a reliable collaborator was, I have to say, a fortunate thing.
"Activate the alarm…"
At this moment, a voice devoid of any emotion came from behind.
"Yes! Commander."
Only then did those few people wake as if from a dream and discover that the highest commander of this place had, at some unknown time, been standing behind them and seemingly had watched the entire process.
In their panic, anxious and sweating profusely, they hurriedly stood up and bowed in response.
It was a long-haired man wearing a dense mask from which his true appearance could not be seen, also the man called "Head" and "Leader" by Zi Da and others.
He was also the newly-advanced True Immortal here that Lingxin didn't take seriously!
The sole one in this place!
The man stared at the screen in silence, showing no intention of making a move at all.
After the Lingneng Clan lost the ability to intercept and could only send out a warning to alert the higher-ups, the "Black Sun" inevitably drew close and descended. From that immeasurably high firmament, it suddenly blotted out the endless sky, carrying all the power of a planet-destroying Star-Gathering Annihilation Cannon, the destructive force brought by its own enormous tonnage, and the power of the "Black Sun" itself — and so it descended.
It is worth mentioning that among all the continental plates of the entire Zhenyu, the largest territory is this continent regarded as the center of the world. It is at least three or four times the size of other continents, and compared to some smaller continental plates, it can even be seven, eight, or over ten times their size — a truly vast continent, worthy of the name.
And the continent occupied by Baichuan, though not the smallest, lies in the remote land of Ji Xi, and can only amount to about one-fifth of its size.
This is also why Baichuan dared to use this move without fear of killing all his allies first, or indiscriminately harming all friendly forces — because the battlefield they chose was never a single location.
For the Lingneng Clan, whose surveillance system nearly covers the entire continent and whose various cities are likewise built throughout it, most of the allied wild beasts had only just set foot on this continent when they were discovered before they could even move.
Only those powerful beings with extraordinary movement or spatial abilities, as well as those creatures who were not weak and possessed special abilities — beings whom several gods had specifically opened teleportation passages for — could truly approach the Lingneng Clan's most central main base.
And the landing site he chose was precisely the core base where the Tongtian Jianmu stood at the very center!
Presumably, with Lingxin's notification, those allied forces should be able to avoid or withstand the most critical of the aftershocks.
Thinking this, the enormous Black Sun crossed the distant continent, sweeping across the sky. Wherever it passed, heavenly drums thundered, lightning split the air, wind and roared, flames filled the sky, mingled with a darkness so profound it was as if eternal night had descended.
"What is that?"
Along the way, countless beings raised their heads to watch the exaggerated "Black Sun" — like a celestial body colliding — sweep past, their faces revealing expressions of horror and terror. Even with their limited intelligence, they knew that once such a colossal object descended, it would cause unimaginably devastating destruction to the earth. No one could imagine the extent, but absolutely no one wished to witness such a scene!
Because that represents death!
Even the world itself would suffer tremendous grievous harm!
This is absolutely no exaggeration. Even the fall of a few slightly larger meteorites could utterly extinguish the creatures called dinosaurs on a certain planet. Although this is merely a hypothesis, it also shows that meteorite impacts possess such terrifying power.
If even relatively small meteorites can cause such effects, how much more so for a destructive "Black Sun" the size of an entire continent?
At this moment, the Wild God Tiger, who had just finished receiving the information transmitted by the God of the Summit, sensed a terrifying power sweep past. It was a colossal object that made even looking at it feel suffocating. The characteristic power 【Airflow Control】, which it had always wielded with ease, suddenly found itself on the verge of failing!
That was not the other party targeting it — it was merely the other party passing by, the powerful force inadvertently caused by it! A continental creature sweeping past the planet at low altitude brought about the effect of tearing off a corner of the atmosphere — that layer known as the sum of all air — as easily as tearing open bread!
Even the atmosphere was torn open at a corner. Without air, how can airflow exist? How then can the power called 【Airflow Control】 function? The most important medium through which characteristic power operates has already vanished!
And this was merely the corner caused by the other party. Various energies in the void also went completely berserk. The earth loosened and rolled, causing countless casualties. Frightening Abysses split the ground one after another. In the void, under the effect of the torn-off atmosphere, boundless flames and wind and thunder were generated from thin air through friction.
That was a terrifying scene beyond ordinary imagination — a genuine apocalypse!
"Is this the being chosen by my Lord? Is this the impure-blooded creature I once saw...?"
In its terror, the Tiger tried to take a deep breath, only to find that the air no longer existed. With a silent sigh, it quietly extinguished a certain previous intention. Even maintaining itself within the other party's aftershock was already a struggle for it — to dare go find trouble with the other party, wasn't that like Old Man Shou eating arsenic — tired of living?
At this moment, it was not only it who thought this way. The Wild Gods, who had previously slightly doubted the Lord's decision and harbored a vague dissatisfaction with Baichuan in their hearts, finally put away all the doubts in their hearts at this moment.
For no other reason than this: beneath this world-destroying power, the Earth Immortal might they took pride in — which could easily slay others of the same rank — could no longer be brought to bear!
Clearly, according to the Lord's words, that impure-blooded creature was merely at the Earthly Immortal Realm.
How could the gap between them seem even more vast than that between Earth Immortals and mortals — almost as different as heaven and earth!
