Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1071 - 425: Qiu Kongyu’s Dimensional Bag (Part 2)

Previously on Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food...
Liang Yuan followed the group through the twisting ice cave as explosions from the ongoing battle between the Ice Armor Warriors and Earth Mother Sect grew closer. Boss Qiu, detecting Liang Yuan's recent arrival from the chaotic City of Ice Mist, struck up a conversation and revealed their counterintuitive path toward the danger for greater safety amid the pursuit. He disclosed the miners' true objective: extracting Blood Ice, which contains crystallized gene fragments known as Genetic Species, crucial for breaking the genetic lock beyond the 45-point attribute barrier and advancing superpower evolution through condensing genetic maps.

Achieving a breakthrough requires the Genetic Map to align perfectly with an individual's Superpower Zodiac.

Take a Fire Attribute Superpower User, for instance—if they acquire an Ice Attribute Genetic Species, absorbing and refining it becomes nearly impossible, much less advancing to form their own Genetic Species and etch the Genetic Map.

That's the essence of incompatibility.

Yet, it was clear that Boss Qiu had no plans to delve into this detail.

He simply shared with Liang Yuan the marvels and importance of the Genetic Species.

Right then, noticing Liang Yuan's face, Boss Qiu saw the anticipated spark of thrill in his eyes, which made his own lips curve upward just a bit.

With a grin, Boss Qiu asked, "Do you understand how one acquires Genetic Species?"

Liang Yuan lifted his gaze to Boss Qiu, curiosity evident as he inquired, "How does one get them?"

"Haha, they come from refining this Blood Ice!"

Liang Yuan's face lit up with delight right away: "Blood Ice can produce Genetic Species? What precisely is Blood Ice, and why does it yield Genetic Species?"

Boss Qiu chuckled: "It's the blood flowing from this Floating Island."

"Blood from the Floating Island?" At the perfect instant, Liang Yuan feigned surprise and questioned, "How can a Floating Island possess blood?"

Hearing that, a trace of nostalgia flickered across Boss Qiu's features: "Do you believe this Floating Island is just an ordinary landmass? You're mistaken, deeply so. In truth, this island is the colossal remains of a gigantic beast!"

"I can't tell you its origins, as I'm unaware myself."

"The place we're standing in isn't merely an underground cavern—it's the very heart of this Giant Corpse from the Floating Island."

"Within this heart, remnants of blood have lingered and frozen across the ages, creating the Blood Ice."

"By extracting sufficient Blood Ice, we can derive the Genetic Species of this immense beast, paving an easy path to developing our own in time."

"Now, young fellow, stick with us and stay composed. Up ahead lies the Blood Pool Palace, brimming with vast quantities of Blood Ice."

"Its position sits right under the Master of Fog City's domain, and one wrong move might awaken him."

"I need to caution you ahead of time—got it?"

Liang Yuan expressed his thanks and replied, "Appreciate the guidance, Boss Qiu. I've got it. Rest assured, I won't rouse the Master of Fog City."

Despite his words, Liang Yuan scoffed silently inside,

Were these folks really so generous?

They must be revealing this info for some hidden agenda.

No matter—as long as a Blood Ice Palace truly exists and he possesses a storage tool, riches await him.

Thus, Boss Qiu kept reminding Liang Yuan to proceed carefully and silently before pressing onward.

The group advanced dozens of meters and encountered a enormous depression up front.

Within that depression, innumerable enormous chunks of crimson ice lay heaped, assembled like a grand edifice!

Atop the pyramid-shaped Blood Ice rested the azure spherical shield of the Master of Fog City that Liang Yuan recognized from earlier.

Now, frosty vapors swirled about, with thick fog enveloping everything, revealing only the vague outline inside the shield, where a figure meditated in mid-air.

The silhouette donned a plain gray garment, his features somewhat obscured, yet it was evident his hair had thinned back, sporting a stark short crop.

Without question, this figure was the Master of Fog City.

Suddenly, Boss Qiu declared, "Folks, grab as much as your skills allow. Charge!"

He gestured sharply, and the others dashed straight into the haze.

Witnessing this, Liang Yuan considered briefly and held back from entering at once.

After a short wait, with no stirrings from the fog, he hurried forward into the vapors.

Upon stepping inside the fog, he swiftly encountered heaps of Blood Ice.

Those nearby had already started hauling it away.

Liang Yuan furrowed his brow faintly, pondering the best way to shift such hefty masses of Blood Ice.

Regardless of the methods others employed to transport the Blood Ice, Liang Yuan wasted no time, rapidly consigning it to his inventory.

He acted with haste, clearing a section of Blood Ice in short order.

Meanwhile, amid the fog not too distant, Boss Qiu retrieved a small, shriveled sack from his person.

In a low tone, he urged, "Speed it up!"

"Got it, Boss!" The rest affirmed with nods.

Boss Qiu inhaled deeply and puffed forcefully into the shriveled sack.

Whoosh—the sack expanded rapidly.

His companions proceeded to load Blood Ice into it successively.

Oddly, despite swelling to roughly a meter and stuffing in scores of kilos of Blood Ice,

the sack stayed flat, showing no extra volume until at last it swelled outward.

Boss Qiu swiftly commanded, "Stop, it's packed. Old Meng, Ah Xin, you handle the Dimensional Bag and head out ahead."

"Boss, and you?" Old Meng, the swarthy fellow, asked urgently.

Boss Qiu glanced skyward with a smirk, "Chang Yuntao is merging with the Floating Island Core; I won't permit his success."

"Depart now, secure this Blood Ice, procure a vessel somehow, and await me beyond the island."

"Boss, let me remain and fight alongside you," Old Meng insisted.

Boss Qiu denied with a shake of his head, "This Dimensional Bag may appear compact, but it's fundamentally Qiu Kongyu's gut. It stores plenty without increasing the burden."

"Ah Xin alone might struggle with it. As Strength-type Superpower Users, you two alternate loads to escape swiftly—move!"

Old Meng and Ah Xin shared a look and agreed unwillingly.

They hoisted the Dimensional Bag promptly and faded into the fog.

The others trailed to guard their retreat.

Soon enough, Boss Qiu stood solitary.

He pivoted toward the fog, a chill grin twisting his mouth.

"Chang Yuntao, you enlisted me to harvest Blood Ice, oblivious to my Dimensional Bag Superpower Equipment and the Qi and Blood Bombs I've embedded within it."

"I eagerly await if your frail barrier endures the barrage of those Qi and Blood Bombs."

Sneering, he pressed his palms against a slab of Blood Ice, crimson radiance bursting from his hands!

As the crimson glow spread, the whole Blood Ice block ignited in light.

Boss Qiu hastened backward, distancing himself from the Blood Ice.

At the same time, while Liang Yuan frantically packed Blood Ice, a peculiar sensation halted him abruptly.

He tilted his head marginally, detecting a potent surge of Qi and Blood, which sent a jolt through him.

After a brief hesitation, Liang Yuan dashed clear of the Mist Area without delay.

Boom!

The very instant Liang Yuan exited the Mist Area, a violent burst of crimson light detonated.

Afterward, the heavens filled with erupting blood glow, followed by ceaseless thunderous blasts.

It resembled a chain of firecrackers, where one blast ignited a colossal chain reaction in the Blood Ice.

Seeking refuge in an ice cavern, Liang Yuan glanced back at the chaos, astonishment etched on his face.

"From where did this blast originate?"

The detonation's force was immense, demolishing the entire Blood Ice Pyramid and sending out a tremendous shock front.

Wherever the scarlet radiance swept, ice chunks fragmented into fragments.

The pyramid toppled in a flash, crashing down thunderously.

Furthermore, the immense pressure wave struck straight at the icy azure Barrier overhead.

Boom, boom, boom...

Deafening sounds swallowed the Barrier at once, and tiny fissures spiderwebbed over the ice-blue surface in seconds.

Within under ten breaths, the Barrier shattered explosively!

The vapors within howled and scattered before the awful pressure wave, unveiling the Master of Fog City!

Liang Yuan raised his eyes and beheld the Master of Fog City, Chang Yuntao, flinging his eyes wide.

His form erupted in a glacial blue sheen, and moments later, horrifying sheets of frost surged outward in every direction.

These frost sheets built towering Ice Walls, erecting a formidable shield underneath him!

Despite the pressure wave's assaults, each Ice Wall that broke reformed instantaneously!

A fearsome coldness radiated everywhere!

The Master of Fog City, Chang Yuntao, his hairline pulled back severely, glared with frosty murderous resolve.

He first scanned the ruined Blood Ice Palace beneath, his face darkening profoundly.

Casting his gaze around, he uttered icily, "Well, well, what audacity from the Earth Mother Sect to target my Mist City!"

"Not a soul among you escapes today!"

He smirked coldly, thrusting his palms downward toward the earth.

Instantly, the dense frost underfoot growled and quaked, compressing wildly against the surface.

No matter the fury of the Qi and Blood Bombs or the shock wave's intensity, the ice mountain he conjured quelled it all by force.

The blasts vented outward, with portions surging right toward Liang Yuan in the ice cave!
