Chapter 466: Power of the Monster
In Bai Cangshu's perception, the world seemed to plunge into darkness in an instant; it was not a simple loss of vision, but a long night accompanied by darkness, with a bone-chilling aura that seemed to pierce into his marrow.
As the god of the dark side of the dualism in the A Song of Ice and Fire world, the Ancient Alien God undoubtedly possessed power surpassing that of the fox-like Outer God from that polytheistic world where mystery was gradually fading.
But precisely because he had been a God-Favored One and had fully experienced the effects of using Godly Thought to communicate with deities and receive the blessing of a Great Existence's divine power, Bai Cangshu understood even more clearly.
The things a deity who has not yet descended into a world can accomplish are quite limited.
Even the god from the One Punch Man World, through the infusion of power, could only raise an ordinary person to the level of a Dragon-level monster.
And that was only in the situation where the deity was in their own world, occupying a "home-field advantage."
Now, the Ancient Alien God had not yet descended, and the divine power that could be projected was absolutely incomparable to the unreserved bestowal Bai Cangshu had received from the fox-like Outer God in the previous world.
And even that version of himself was, to the current Bai Cangshu, not something invincible.
Therefore, standing in the darkness, Bai Cangshu's figure was upright; he felt not the slightest fear at being deprived of his vision, standing in a strangely distorted posture with his eyelids lowered.
Even though he had no vision, he still looked at the location of Xuan Yeji without any obstruction.
Yes, Bai Cangshu discovered that the priority of the marking effect of Arrogant Sight was actually higher than the unknown ability the Ancient Alien God was exerting through Xuan Yeji's body.
He could not see anything else, but Xuan Yeji, whose body outline was traced by a red phantom, was perfectly clear.
Crack, crack.
The earth began to emit the sound of fracturing amidst the freezing, and far behind him, that massive, special Ghost was also approaching Bai Cangshu; the sound of those numerous footsteps rubbing against the ground was very distinct.
Bai Cangshu stood in place, and soon felt the icy power begin to sweep through his entire body from his feet.
The freezing ice encased Bai Cangshu in an instant.
"Tao Baibai, this is not a battle that belongs to you..."
"Retreat..."
Xuan Yeji's voice became cold and distant, and his attitude toward Bai Cangshu no longer contained any hidden fear.
A large amount of sticky, tentacle-like things also began to wrap around Bai Cangshu's neck from behind at this moment, and intense negative emotions began to surge toward Bai Cangshu like a tide.
In Bai Cangshu's mind, a large number of fragmented scenes began to flash back.
Within them were the despair of seeing parents and family members submerged by collapsing buildings, the fear of watching one's younger brother's stomach being hollowed out by a Ghost, the fear of never being able to see family again, and the despair of having one's life and death beyond one's own control.
Amidst these various emotions, the icy divine power coordinated synchronously; although Xuan Yeji's body stood in place, his hands pointed remotely at Bai Cangshu, and within his ice-blue pupils, various scenes churned.
Within them, Bai Cangshu's various slaughters in this world were reflected.
"Yes, Tao Baibai, you are just a Scavenger who came to this world to kill; now that your goal is reached, you should have left long ago..."
"Is it because you still want to hunt down Bonnie? It is a pity that the woman has already been persuaded to leave by her companions in advance, and has likely left this world forever..."
"Angry because you were provoked but unable to take revenge? It doesn't matter, I have already controlled that loud-mouthed fellow in advance."
The next moment, a ray of aurora seemed to fall into the pitch-black world, and a figure with delicate features and shoulder-length short hair rose from the beach.
Bai Cangshu raised an eyebrow; at this moment, he did indeed feel that the human before him was of flesh and blood, but the opponent's ability should not be strong enough to snatch someone from afar.
Seeing Bai Cangshu's expression, Xuan Yeji seemed to think his strategy had worked, and with a push, he shoved Lotus in front of Bai Cangshu.
Lotus could not see anything at this moment either, and was only shrinking slightly due to the cold.
"Kill him, leave this world, and I can pretend nothing happened; in the next world, you can still spread the end of the winter, and you will still be... a God-Favored One..."
"Heh~"
Bai Cangshu chuckled and interrupted the statement the Ancient Alien God had influenced Xuan Yeji to make.
His body was wrapped in the phantom of the Omen of the Evil God, and the Qi and muscles in his body swelled slightly; that intense power was already poised to strike.
"Ancient Alien God, do you think I should gratefully accept your divine grace now and then leave this world?"
Boom!
Intense Qi erupted violently from within Bai Cangshu's body.
In just an instant, those tentacle-like intestines wrapped around his body surface shattered directly.
The ice also dissolved inch by inch, completely unable to bind Bai Cangshu's figure.
Even more exaggeratedly, the pitch-black power enveloping the entire area also seemed to be impacted by some intense force at this moment, slightly distorting outward and beginning to expand.
Kaioken!
After mastering this ability, Bai Cangshu had not yet had a sufficiently sturdy target to let him feel exactly how his doubled combat power was.
"You got one thing wrong; the one who controls the situation here now is me, not you."
Boom!
The energy known as Qi, ever since Bai Cangshu obtained it through Ripple Qigong and Dodon Ray, had never been considered particularly powerful within him.
But at this moment, the intense Qi broke through the shackles of his flesh, and for the first time, began to erupt in a form visible to the naked eye.
Bai Cangshu's long black hair curled upward, and the Qi, which was mixed with a large amount of blood-red color due to the excessive load on his body, made Bai Cangshu seem to transform into a red Qi warrior.
Power, unparalleled power!
Bai Cangshu's original base power was at 52 points; at this moment, with the time approaching midnight, the additional boost to power efficiency reached 50%, expanding the original 1.5x boost to the limit of the First Order Chao-fan Te-zheng efficiency—【2x】!
His actual power reached 104 points at this moment, and with the activation of Kaioken, this power doubled once again, becoming an unprecedented 208 points!
Bai Cangshu's voice trembled slightly as he spoke, and his tone was difficult to control; even with his Grandmaster-level physical control, he felt as if the muscles all over his body were running wild at this moment.
For a time, he was actually unable to control it perfectly.
Crack, boom!
The ground where Bai Cangshu stood, after the sound of all the ice shattering, exploded violently.
That was caused by the terrifying force that erupted when Bai Cangshu subconsciously dug his toes into the ground, instantly tearing apart the completely crystallized beach.
The intense Qi also followed Bai Cangshu's soaring emotions, spreading further outward like a sky-piercing airflow.
Boom!
The shattered sand and ice seemed to lose gravity, flying toward the sky.
Under the infusion of this powerful Qi, Bai Cangshu's eyes soon returned to normal; his Spirit attribute also doubled under the effect of Kaioken, and the force field created by this level of divine power could no longer suppress his senses.
Xuan Yeji subconsciously took two steps back, the ice-blue crystals in his eyes trembling violently.
"What... is this thing..."
An unprecedented, extreme individual martial power was destroying everything in a way completely different from divine power or authority.
Bai Cangshu's expression was high-spirited; his eyebrows, the corners of his eyes, and even his pupils seemed to be uncontrollably arching upward. At this moment, Bai Cangshu finally understood why Kakarot and the others looked so arrogant every time they transformed into a Super Saiyan.
This pure power, born from within and completely independent of any authority or rules, truly gave one the pleasure of losing control.
If he did not lower his eyelids, Bai Cangshu suspected he would not even want to keep Xuan Yeji, who was currently possessed by an ancient alien god, in his sight.
"Ancient alien god, condense your divine power and creations, and let me... be amused~"
