Chapter 66: Deep Space Giant Beast Descends

At age 26, as the threat of the giant beast began to diminish, communication between the major walled districts also started to deepen; and because Weiniya holds the title of martial arts successor, your dojo often receives visitors from another walled district who come to visit or spar, all of which Weiniya handles perfectly.

As you expected, the trainees' situation is the same: whether or not they have prosthetics, none of them managed to sense qi, which from another angle confirms Weiniya's talent and uniqueness.

After your transmission test, you discovered that only trainees with intact organs can retain qi in their bodies, which circulates strangely through their five viscera and six bowels; whereas anyone who has replaced any prosthetic organ cannot retain qi at all.

You even wondered whether these prosthetics should be counted as weapons like your own Han sword, since to a certain extent both the Han sword and prosthetics can bear qi and blood.

You are not an expert in scientific research; you have no interest in studying martial arts and prosthetics, you just want to know whether Weiniya is special.

As for your own martial arts realm, your qi and blood now visibly emit a golden light; once they turn completely gold, you have fully entered the Return to the Void realm.

Weiniya has also reached the River Flow realm; combined with her full-body high-tech prosthetics, her strength is not to be underestimated, and after sparring with her you believe her strength can barely reach the level of a Guardian.

Everything seemed calm, yet you keenly sensed something unusual.

Recently, you've become increasingly unlucky; whenever you leave the dojo and go onto the street, you inevitably encounter a damn cyber psychosis, or a car accident, or some other incident.

Having heavy objects dropped from high altitude barely miss you has happened many times; to you it may seem nothing, but if it were an ordinary person they would have long since died!

You suspect someone is targeting you, but no matter how you investigate you cannot find evidence, and during the investigation you have been repeatedly drawn into the scenes of large gang fights.

Your strength is superb, so the impact of these things on you is negligible, but your heart is increasingly filled with doubt.

You even began to suspect whether heaven itself is determined to kill you, or whether it's just recent bad luck; otherwise, is all this too much of a coincidence?

In this world, unless several Guardians from other walled districts join forces to besiege you, or an event like an asteroid striking the planet occurs, no one in this world can kill you.

You began to wonder whether Heaven really would, as you thought, arrange a great defiant act to kill you.

This thought persisted until an ordinary afternoon...

Cough cough cough....

Zhang Jie, who once again choked while drinking water, was utterly helpless; surely no one really thinks a sip of water could choke a martial arts master to death?

Zhang Jie was amused by his own baseless association; just as he was about to take another sip of water to soothe his throat, the earth suddenly trembled, and a cup of water poured all over his face.

What's going on?

Zhang Jie walked downstairs puzzled, only to find most of the dojo's trainees already gathered at the doorway watching; outside on the street, screams and shouts rose and fell, as if something terrifying had appeared.

Zhang Jie's heart tightened; he hurried out of the dojo, looked up, and his eyes widened instantly.

What a terrifying sight: a huge, strange head appeared out of nowhere above everyone's heads, like a giant observing a miniature sand table, looking down on the whole world.

If a sufferer of megalophobia came here, they would likely be frightened to death on the spot.

This is a deep space giant whale, a kind of beast disaster, that lives by devouring civilized planets in the universe.

Only see its incomparably huge body slowly approaching the planet; its closed mouth splits open a bottomless fissure, and on its body, countless worms parasitic on it fall from the sky.

Dense black worms rained from the sky; familiar tremors came from the nearby ground, and countless black giant worms appeared inside the city, their mouthparts rotating like a huge meat grinder, greedily gnawing at everything nearby.

The crowd panicked and fled in all directions; Weiniya appeared beside Zhang Jie, her face full of panic.

Teacher! Teacher! What is that!!!

Zhang Jie said nothing, staring blankly at the giant creature in space slowly opening its huge mouth, as four words gradually emerged in his mind.

Deep Space Giant Beast...

He muttered, looking at the eight-sided Han sword never leaving his hand; the sword now seemed to possess a spirit, its blade actually beginning to tremble slightly.

It sensed something; in ages past, his almighty master once wielded it to slay such a giant beast, and the fragments of that beast's corpse still drift in this star system.

Teacher! We must flee now! Let's leave this place first and talk later!

Weiniya did not know what that slowly approaching giant creature was, nor that the entire planet was about to be devoured by it; she only wanted to get away from here with the teacher, away from this chaotic city.

Run... where can we run to?

Gripping his Han sword tightly, Zhang Jie for the first time felt helpless; why does such a creature exist in this world, why would a being capable of devouring an entire planet appear?

Could it be that its only purpose is destruction?

Zhang Jie does not know, but he is unwilling; he has not truly witnessed the legendary Heaven-Earth Manifestation, nor has he reached the pinnacle of martial arts...

Damn it...

But at this moment Weiniya could no longer care about anything; she instantly activated Stanweistin, cranked the load power to maximum, and took Zhang Jie and Weinina running out of the city.

Zhang Jie only felt his vision flash; the surrounding scenery retreated as if accelerated, he instantly realized it was Weiniya, but he did not actively struggle.

Now, Zhang Jie's brain is racing, countless ideas turning in his mind, each possible escape route rejected by him one by one.

Oxygen, planet, shelter—all plans are utterly ineffective before absolute strength.

Only true divine powers, by opening Heaven-Earth Manifestation and swinging that sword that cleaves heaven and earth...

Thinking of this, Zhang Jie suddenly recalled something he had once noticed—the few strange devices floating beside the octopus-head Guardian.

What was it called... Beast King Engine?
