Liang Yuan navigates the Ring City World Trade Building in search of its leader, Huang Guangzu, encountering a young survivor named Yuan Weiwei who has been hardened by the harsh realities of the apocalypse. As he ascends the floors, Liang Yuan effortlessly dispatches the various superpower users blocking his path with his superior abilities. Upon reaching the top level, he confronts Huang Guangzu, a Light Attribute Superpower User, while simultaneously pressing a survivor from his past for information regarding the whereabouts of a woman named Jiang Ziyin.

"It seems you have successfully achieved an elemental body, granting you the ability to transform into light."

Liang Yuan remarked coolly, his own hair shifting into a deep shade of azure.

A thick layer of icy frost began to billow from his body, causing the temperature within the Spirit Turtle shield to plummet sharply!

With a carefree flick of his wrist, a vast quantity of water materialized from thin air.

As this water collided with the freezing mist, it hardened into refined, polished ice mirrors.

"Unfortunately," Liang Yuan stated calmly, "light possesses no inherent ability to pass through every obstacle."

Crash!

The moment he uttered these words, a brilliant spark of light struck one of the ice mirrors and shattered it instantly.

Huang Guangzu failed to pierce through the barrier; instead, he was recoiled violently by the rebounding force.

When light strikes a mirror, it undergoes reflection rather than direct penetration.

Encased within his sphere of light, Huang Guangzu let out a desperate, bewildered cry, "This is impossible! It cannot be!"

Liang Yuan maintained an aloof expression as the surrounding ice mirrors thickened, gradually constricting the confines of the Spirit Turtle shield.

Regardless of how frantically Huang Guangzu shimmered and dashed within his light-form, his room for movement grew tighter with every passing second!

Within moments, the space had coalesced into a hollow, frigid sphere.

Huang Guangzu, still trapped in his elemental state, found himself forcibly subdued within the icy confinement.

Approaching the exterior of the sphere, Liang Yuan peered at the glowing orb inside, stating with steady composure, "In this world, no superpower is truly invincible."

He gestured toward his head and added, "Humanity's greatness lies not merely in raw strength, but in the application of our intellect."

"I have encountered countless users with superpowers just like yours."

"Physical assaults may not harm you, but I possess endless methods to neutralize your threat."

For the very first time, Huang Guangzu grasped the chilling reality of facing an exceptionally intelligent adversary.

Shaking with a mixture of rage and apprehension, he screamed, "If you are brave enough, release me and let us fight head-on!"

Liang Yuan let out a dry, mocking laugh, "Do you honestly consider what we just experienced to be a fair confrontation?"

"Your light-attribute ability appears straightforward and honorable, relying entirely on the unpredictable volatility of light and extreme velocity?"

He felt no desire to waste further breath on the man.

In reality, even without utilizing the principles of reflection to imprison his foe, he could have effortlessly invoked his formidable Spiritual Power to obliterate Huang Guangzu’s consciousness from within the light construct.

However, the nature of this light-based superpower intrigued him enough that he opted to toy with his target a while longer.

Turning his focus to the bewildered, limping man, Liang Yuan leveled his gaze at the survivor from Xinghai Garden.

"Now, are you prepared to continue our discussion?"

The man gulped down his fear, eyeing Liang Yuan with trepidation, and stammered, "Dr. Jiang and her companions were expelled following a dispute with our leader."

"I am unaware of the specifics behind that conflict."

He attempted to deflect, distancing himself from the situation.

Liang Yuan shifted his attention back to Huang Guangzu, who remained trapped within the icy orb.

At this moment, Huang Guangzu did not dare revert to his human form.

The interior temperature of the sphere was deathly cold; should he return to his physical body, he would be turned into an ice statue in an instant.

He was forced to rely on his elemental state to survive.

Yet, such a state could not be sustained forever; eventually, his power would drain, and he would have no choice but to manifest physically, only to be entombed in ice.

Liang Yuan calmly inquired, "Huang Guangzu, are you familiar with Dr. Jiang, known as Jiang Ziyin?"

Huang Guangzu retorted, "Release me, and I shall answer you."

Liang Yuan sneered, glaring at the orb of light, "I will afford you three seconds to reconsider; fail to answer, and I will take decisive action."

Huang Guangzu ground his teeth in defiance, snarling, "If I die, those secrets regarding Jiang Ziyin’s location will disappear with me!"

Liang Yuan laughed aloud, "You intend to gamble your existence against mine?"

Dumbfounded by the response, Huang Guangzu quickly squeaked, "If I tell you, will you set me free?"

"If you provide the truth, I will weigh whether you deserve to live or die."

Anxiety gnawed at Huang Guangzu; it appeared there was no room left for negotiation.

As he wavered, Liang Yuan articulated steadily, "Three!"

"You—"

"Two!"

"I—"

"One!"

Liang Yuan raised his hand, conjuring a globule of caustic protein-corroding liquid from his palm.

He slammed his hand onto the ice sphere; immediately, the substance began to seep through the barrier, spreading rapidly within the enclosure.

Liang Yuan explained coolly, "This is a potent toxin. Regardless of your elemental form, you will surely inhale the poison the moment you become physical or struggle to breathe."

"I need not describe the agony involved; you shall experience it vividly soon enough."

"Understand this: this poison is an innate part of my ability, and there is no cure. The process is irreversible."

Before Liang Yuan could finish, Huang Guangzu descended into a state of sheer panic.

"No, wait! I will talk, I will confess everything!"

"I am familiar with Jiang Ziyin; she and her team arrived at the Ring City World Trade Building shortly after I did."

"I pursued her, but she rejected me, leading to our fallout."

"For the safety of her team, she chose to vacate the premises in search of a sanctuary."

"Stop, please stop! I have told you everything!"

Liang Yuan withdrew his hand, though the black, corrosive fluid lingered on the surface.

"Where did she venture?"

"I... I am not certain."

"Not certain? Is there a location you suspect?"

"I heard rumors she intended to travel toward Guangfu. She mentioned the high elevation and mountainous terrain might be spared from the rising floodwaters."

Liang Yuan’s brow furrowed slightly.

He pressed again, "Give me a description of Jiang Ziyin."

Huang Guangzu paused for a beat, eyes wide, before muttering, "She has mixed heritage, possessing a striking beauty and an incredible figure."

"Her hair is naturally blonde, and she carries herself with an aura of authority."
