Chapter 538: Pure Power (3k)

Bai Cangshu stretched, as if waking from the most restful sleep, his muscles and bones constantly emitting various strange sounds.

That commotion was like firecrackers popping incessantly, and there were even fine ripples constantly appearing in the air.

Jin Yuean clutched his chest, staggered two steps to the side, and a hemostatic spray quickly appeared in his hand, which he sprayed haphazardly onto his chest twice.

Yet, a joyful smile appeared on his face.

"My lord, you have truly returned..."

Bai Cangshu did not answer, only looking back at the massive ice pillar dozens of meters high, which, along with that Reincarnator, had frozen the entire hotel.

【Heaven Frost Fist (Tianshuang Power, Bone-Attached Ice Poison) lv9 — Frosty Silence Invades the Nine Netherworlds, Fist Seals All Things, Life Force Extinguished】

Even without energy like internal power, relying solely on Force and his own 【Qi】, Bai Cangshu could now reach the point of completely freezing a large hotel with a casual punch.

【Qi】 is an extremely convenient energy; at Bai Cangshu's current level, he can appreciate this point more and more.

【Great Black Heaven】 watched the finally appearing Tao Baibai with suspicious and uncertain pupils; the other party radiated an inexplicable aura.

As if floating in the world, yet unstained by a single speck of dust.

The master realm of Mind Like Still Water? No, perhaps even above that!

What level has Tao Baibai's martial arts specialization reached, lv9 or lv10?!

Bai Cangshu tilted his head slightly, looking down with a disdainful gaze at the "young child" whose back still had black flames circulating amidst the ice.

Afterward, he raised three fingers, tapped them, and the next moment, his knees bent slightly, and the surrounding air seemed to blur and distort in an Instant.

The 【Force】 that should only flow within the human body manifested in the outside world as if it were substantial, actually transforming into some kind of force field; the dust and broken ice in the air all suddenly changed direction, falling toward the ground.

Pfft!

The air made a sound of being torn apart, and the next instant, rolling air waves roared in like a gale; the terrifying sound waves made Jin Yuean cover his ears, his face deathly pale.

Whoosh~

Black flames ignited before him, and Jin Yuean was immediately alert; sure enough, the next moment, Great Black Heaven appeared from the flames, and that punch that froze the hotel had not caused him much damage.

But Great Black Heaven did not continue to attack Jin Yuean; he had just clearly read Tao Baibai's inner thoughts.

"Three minutes, give me three minutes to finish off those people, then I'll come back to play with you~"

Arrogant, haughty, but also powerful enough to make one astonished.

Tao Baibai's fist technique had already progressed to a terrifying degree; that punch struck, and countless ice forces filled the hotel lobby in almost an instant, leaving him unable to make any move and directly frozen.

The reason he was unscathed was not because his defensive power was formidable, but because Tao Baibai had no intention of attacking him at all.

Of course, Great Black Heaven did not believe that Tao Baibai was already stronger than himself; he naturally had his own pride.

But without a doubt, Tao Baibai had been regarded by him as an opponent of the same level, not on the same plane as the 【Great Demon】 and others over there.

Great Black Heaven waved his hand, signaling Jin Yuean to step back.

"You go; the coming battle is not something a newcomer of your level can watch."

——

Whoosh!

Like a high-speed fighter jet skimming past the city at extreme speed, the terrifying sonic boom shattered the glass on various buildings all at once.

The horrific sound waves, accompanied by several explosion-like screeches, rang directly throughout the entire 【Paradise】.

The few people who were chasing that slippery Reincarnator also stopped their Footwork and looked up at the sky.

Only to see under the low and gloomy sky, a man wearing a pink robe, his feet treading on the void, standing above the city.

He bent his waist, his long black hair dancing wildly, the corners of his mouth hooked up, his smile playful and cruel.

Wei Yixiao's pupils shrank; he would never forget this smile.

At that time, he was floating in the air, watching the other party wear this very smile as he killed 【You Jiu】 and 【Basha】, two companions who had taken good care of him, one after another, ultimately leading to the collapse of the Fifth Element.

Crack, crack, crack...

A fragmented vibrating sound came from Wei Yixiao, and 【Jia Su】, standing beside him, looked worriedly at this young boy; he could not tell if Wei Yixiao's expression at this moment was a smile or a cry.

Likewise, he could not tell if the constant trembling of the other party's body at this moment was fear or excitement.

But the next moment, he understood.

"Tao... Tao Baibai... Tao Baibai, Tao Baibai, ah!"

At first it was just a soft murmur, but the boy quickly muttered this nightmare-like name, his voice growing louder and louder, finally shouting it out!

Deep blue flames erupted from Wei Yixiao's body in an Instant; in just a moment, the skin, flesh, and hair all over his body had completely disappeared.

"Haaah!"

In just an instant, Wei Yixiao had completely entered a state of blind rage, the anger of his own powerlessness when his good friends died, and the anger that the "peaceful" adventure life—where he should have cooperated with Boss Kai and the others to overcome mission world after mission world—had been completely destroyed.

At this moment, it erupted without reservation.

Boom!

The ice-blue flames expanded in an Instant into a terrifying fireball with a diameter of over one kilometer, completely swallowing the surrounding buildings and exploding with a roar.

The flames turned into fire meteors, wrapping around the wreckage of those buildings, and the cars on the street also exploded completely in an instant.

This scene made the complexions of the other few people change slightly.

They had more or less looked down on these two remnants from the 【Fifth Element】, but they did not expect that this guy who inherited the team's legacy had actually grown to this point.

Boom!

Amidst the massive explosion, more fire meteors spiraled wildly like fire dragons, crashing toward Tao Baibai in the sky.

Bai Cangshu watched the furiously erupting boy with great interest; it was almost hard to connect the other party with that guy who, on that day, could only circle in the sky throwing javelins, not daring to come down to fight.

Sure enough, Reincarnators are a group of interesting creatures capable of evolving in a very short time, and 【Humans】, too, will undergo earth-shaking changes because of that 【Heart】.

The weak can become the strong, and the strong can also become weak. Bai Cangshu raised his right palm and pressed it lightly toward the bottom.

Hum~

In the air, in an Instant, countless incandescent air currents surged backward; those were the traces manifested by the violent movement of air rubbing and circulating at extreme speed.

The flames, crashing upward like a dark blue mad dragon, seemed to strike a wall of air in an instant.

【Cloud-Plucking Palm (Virtual Cloud Power; Qi Surging to the Clouds) lv9—The momentum of impermanence swallows Heaven and Earth, the sea of clouds churns, the palm severs the Soul】

Pfft!

Amidst the frantic collision of two air currents, the cold steel spear burning with dark blue flames tore through the palm momentum in an instant, and the terrifying shockwave rolled back toward Bai Cangshu in an instant.

Accompanied by monstrous fury, the young man, whose flesh and blood had been burned away by Hellfire, gripped a long spear and had already arrived before Bai Cangshu.

On the ground, Jia Su exclaimed in surprise; he had not expected Wei Yixiao to have already struck directly at Tao Baibai with a single move, which was different from the previously discussed encirclement plan.

"Tao Baibai, die for me!"

A young person's fury is always impossible to suppress; in Bai Cangshu's eyes, this spear approached him inch by inch, the violent Force completely piercing through the air in front of the spear tip.

The spear tip was still over ten meters away from him, yet that sharpness and the coldness of the flames felt as if they were touching his body.

"Ha~ Wei Yixiao, is it? You... are very interesting."

Boom!

The destructive Force and flames thrust out with a roar, the black clouds rolled backward, and in an instant, it was as if a hole had been punched in the black clouds in the sky, vaguely revealing the azure sky behind them.

But Wei Yixiao felt a sense of emptiness in his heart; his spear had struck nothing but Empty air.

In his hollow eye sockets, firelight flickered, and in an instant, he sensed a person appearing at his side.

He immediately turned the spear body horizontally and thrust toward his side, but it was still Empty.

The next moment, a hand reached out from his other side and pressed against his face.

So fast... how could it be this fast!

A terrifying Force erupted in an instant; Wei Yixiao could almost not feel the weight of his own body, and the air behind him seemed to turn into an elastic liquid, squeezed into a huge arc by his body.

The next moment, accompanied by a pfft sound, Wei Yixiao felt the sky in front of him being left far behind in an instant.

The world before his eyes seemed to have turned into a frame-skipping animation; he watched Tao Baibai maintain the motion of having thrown him away with one hand, his own limbs swinging forward uncontrollably, and in the next scene, Tao Baibai and that dark sky were already extremely far away.

Crack~ Boom!

The sound of the Barrier shattering and the sound of him slamming into the ground occurred almost simultaneously.

The huge shockwave spanning several kilometers in the air only just erupted at this moment; before the sound had recovered, Wei Yixiao felt his back and the ground begin to shatter together.

Rumble!

Jia Su stood motionless on the spot, the astonishment of Wei Yixiao's sudden spear thrust still lingering in his eyes; the next moment, a terrifying Force erupted beside him, knocking him flying.

The terrifying shockwave made the ground roll like waves, and as a surge of Force entered his body, his chest sank and his throat tasted sweet.

Boom!

Jia Su was knocked flying, and the Barrier shattered in an instant.

Standing in the distance, the gaunt old man with graying temples also had a dazed expression for a moment.

That guy from the Fifth Element had erupted with power beyond his imagination, but his crushing defeat caught him even more off guard.

"Ha... haha, Tao Baibai, you guy, you truly deserve to be the one who made a name for yourself by stepping on us Four Demons, I should also..."

As he spoke, his body expanded rapidly, and pitch-black demonic energy erupted from behind him.

Ring!

Golden Qi whistled in an instant, piercing through his chest like a laser.

Pfft, pfft, pfft, three sounds in succession.

Just as the Great Demon was choking on blood from his mouth and nose and about to fall backward, a figure had already appeared behind him, and his neck was immediately gripped by a hand.

Damn it, is it Tao Baibai?!

The Great Demon shook his arms, his terrifying demonic energy contracted violently, and then erupted with determination.

【Explosive Power Demon Wave】!

Destructive demonic energy erupted from within his body in an instant.

At this moment, Jia Su, who had been blown away, felt his scalp go numb; an unprecedentedly strong premonition of death enveloped him.

On the other side, Mai, who had returned to watch the battle because Tao Baibai had appeared, also had a drastic change in expression.

A purple-black light, like an aurora, erupted with a roar, spreading destructively to every place in the surroundings.

That was a terrifying ability also from the Dragon Ball World; fully erupted, with the Great Demon's current level of enhancement, it was enough to destroy half a city.

But...

"Urgh..."

The Great Demon suddenly could not feel the maintenance of his demonic energy, and the Explosive Power Demon Wave that was about to erupt turned into an explosion of only a few meters, letting out a dull boom.

The Great Demon's pupils contracted violently; he saw a headless corpse fall with a thud, blood spraying continuously like a fountain.

Damn it, how could he be so strong... it's impossible for him to be this strong... damn it...

His consciousness gradually turned black, his field of vision rolled and fell onto the ground, which was full of mud and rubble from the explosion; he seemed to hear the terrified screams of those so-called "allies" in his ears, followed by their flight.
