Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1186 - 527: Ding Yan’s Genetic Species

"Broke through?"

Joy lit up Liang Yuan's face as he gazed at Ding Yan in that instant.

Ding Yan's emanating aura felt noticeably more intense.

She still wore that snug combat suit, yet her commanding presence pulsed clearly.

Beneath this aura, her stance looked even prouder.

Her innate tall build now radiated a fiercely dominant air.

Ding Yan tossed back her long hair, rose up, and strode toward him with a grin tugging at her lips, declaring, "Shall we go out and practice?"

Liang Yuan grinned back, "Let’s go."

Song Wen burst out in thrilled excitement, "Let’s go, let’s go! Let’s go watch, Sister Ding has to be super strong after breaking through the gene species."

Dong Yan clapped her hands eagerly, "I want to go too."

Yang Mei smiled softly, "Come back soon, I prepared noon soup and side dishes to mark Ding Yan’s breakthrough."

Gentle as rippling water, she stayed the warm family leader, melting hearts with her caring touch.

Liang Yuan shared a look with her, their wordless affection speaking deeply.

What stirred Liang Yuan most about Yang Mei was her tender attentiveness.

Occasionally, he believed Sister Mei, not Zhuang Shuyuan, excelled most at mind reading.

Her insight made him adore her deeply.

Amid shared laughter, they exited the home as Yang Mei lingered at the entrance, smiling while seeing them off.

"Where shall we practice?" Ding Yan inquired.

Liang Yuan pondered briefly then grinned, "I’ll take you to an interesting place."

With that, Liang Yuan swept his hand!

Swoosh!

Everyone's vision blurred in a flash, and when they refocused, a strange space enveloped them.

This realm lacked limits, gray-white filling every visible expanse.

Barren void, absent sky or land, no guides in any direction.

Gravity was missing entirely.

The team hovered in nothingness, surprise flashing across Ding Yan, Song Wen, and Dong Yan's faces.

"Brother Liang, where is this?" Dong Yan blurted out.

Next to her, Song Wen whipped out a vine, scouting all around.

She blurted, "What is this place? Why is there no ground?"

Ding Yan appeared to grasp it then, exclaiming in wonder, "Have you mastered the space gene species?"

Only she knew Li Qinghua had formed the genetic species and refined the Mirage Snake Space heart core.

She knew too that Liang Yuan held space-type superpowers.

Thus, she swiftly deduced Liang Yuan had formed a space-type genetic species!

Though clueless on his multiple powers secret, her trust in him remained total.

His breakthrough and power surge filled her with delight.

Liang Yuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, Qinghua gave me a portion of the Mirage Snake blood crystal. I have already refined the genetic species. Now my space superpower has also broken through and condensed a space-type genetic species."

"This space is the Sumeru Space that I opened up."

"But it’s not as big as you think; this space is about 400 cubic meters. Because it’s independent space, there’s no gravity and nothing inside."

Ding Yan buzzed with thrill, "Doesn’t that make you even more powerful now?"

Liang Yuan just smiled silently.

Far away, Song Wen’s vine at last brushed the encircling space barrier.

Turning the vine into a rope, she wove a vine bridge in a loop, then tugged Dong Yan over. They settled atop the vine bridge.

She yelled out, "Brother Liang, we’ll sit here and watch you train Sister Ding!"

Dong Yan erupted in laughter at those words.

Liang Yuan chuckled too, "Alright, let me train your Sister Ding a bit, lest she gets too complacent after breaking through the genetic species."

Ding Yan's brows shot up, and she bellowed, "Who’s training who isn’t certain yet!"

Instantly after, Ding Yan clenched her fist tight.

Her heart pounded wildly, a translucent human-like energy shield exploding around her form.

The energy shield hugged her body snugly.

Still, Liang Yuan frowned faintly, since Ding Yan's superpower display mirrored her pre-genetic species awakening.

"I’m going to make a move!"

Liang Yuan nodded, "Come on, let me see what changes have occurred after your breakthrough?"

Ding Yan flashed a dazzling smile. Her foot slammed down suddenly.

In the blink of an eye, she rocketed forward, dashing straight at Liang Yuan.

Her velocity stunned, exceeding 60 meters per second!

Liang Yuan froze in shock for an instant, as usually, after achieving a genetic species breakthrough, Ding Yan's primary attribute would barely exceed 50 points. But her speed was obviously surpassing the 50-point threshold by a wide margin!

Importantly, agility wasn't even her main attribute!

Liang Yuan reflexively lifted his hand to ward off Ding Yan's charging punch.

A translucent glow shimmered across her fist.

In the next instant, the strike that should have connected halted abruptly mid-air.

Ding Yan's free hand thrust forward suddenly.

Superpower energy churned wildly in her palm, morphing swiftly into a handgun!

"Bang!"

She fired without warning, the handgun unleashing a laser with a sharp bang, hurtling viciously at Liang Yuan!

Liang Yuan was startled once more, dodging effortlessly by tilting his head slightly to evade the energy weapon's blast.

Yet on her original striking fist, superpower energy amassed, shaping into a muzzle.

It then blasted abruptly toward Liang Yuan!

Boom!

An energy cannonball erupted in a flash.

Liang Yuan's spiritual telekinesis surged ahead of him instantly, erecting a telekinesis barrier.

Bam!

The tremendous energy detonated violently, yet the telekinesis wall stood firm unscathed.

The cannonball's shockwave rippled outward like furious waves, trembling and thundering with fury.

Liang Yuan eyed Ding Yan, witnessing her body rocket skyward as energy wings unfurled behind her.

These wings bore no feathers, instead boasting jet propulsion engines!

Boom!

She streaked through the sky at high speed, diving at Liang Yuan from above and circling past the telekinesis wall for her assault.

Suspended in the air, her left hand gripped an energy gun while the right held an energy cannon, unleashing nonstop ranged barrages!

Liang Yuan activated the Spirit Turtle Shield without a second's pause.

Explosions boomed ceaselessly, but regardless of Ding Yan's savage onslaughts, the Spirit Turtle Shield remained utterly unshakable!

The power gap between them was simply overwhelming.

Ding Yan grew despondent, somersaulting to hover in mid-air, and snapped in frustration: "You're cheating—your Spirit Turtle Shield is insanely tough! How can I possibly break it? Hold your power back to my level."

Amazement filled Liang Yuan's expression as he remarked: "How did your empowerment transform like this? Guns, cannons, even jet flight thrusters!"

Ding Yan noted his shock and grinned at last, declaring: "This is my genetic species, the Lunia Energy Beast!"

Liang Yuan arched an eyebrow and pressed quickly: "What do you mean?"

"Lunia, in our language, translates to battle."

"I extracted the genetic species from the Sword-Tail Sea Serpent’s body—it carries potent battle genes."

"Thus, I awakened this genetic species."

"And it includes a talent ability."

"What talent ability?"

"Energy burst!"

"What does that mean?"

"The energy inside me can erupt in targeted forms."

"But I must discover these forms myself."

"For example, I shape my superpower into pistol form to fire my inner superpower as energy bullets, delivering devastating explosive damage."

"The energy cannon follows the same principle."

Stunned, Liang Yuan questioned: "So, mastering energy burst theory lets you channel your superpower into burst modes, thereby unleashing energy burst attacks?"

"Precisely. For now, I've devised pistol, cannonball, and airplane jet forms."

"This energy usage closely mirrors my prior Air Cannon Fist and empowered superpower concepts."

"Though its power is far superior now, of course."

"To put it simply, it's like grasping atomic bomb principles to craft one from scratch."

Liang Yuan gaped in disbelief: "You're basically a human ammo factory now? Able to whip up any cannonball?"

Ding Yan chuckled: "It's energy burst—simply harnessing ammo principles to unleash my inner superpower energy."

"Fair enough, but along your evolution path, will you need to study all sorts of energy application knowledge going forward?"

Ding Yan nodded: "Yes—the more knowledge I gain, the more forms I can intuitively employ."

Liang Yuan laughed: "Your Air Cannon Fist has finally evolved into a true Cannon Fist."

"Incidentally, your old empowerment fused attack and defense—how about now?"

"No different. Energy burst delivers explosive offense and can rapidly solidify into defensive barriers."

"That said, I want to experiment blending attack with defense. After all, isn't it said that the best defense is a strong offense?"

Liang Yuan found it funny; Ding Yan, who was once a female warrior, had grown even fiercer after her genetic species awakening.

"You're fully embracing the female warrior path now."

"What's bad about being a female warrior? Don't you like it?"

Liang Yuan grinned: "I love it. The stronger you get, the better I feel."

"For real?"

"Absolutely."

"Why? Aren't men supposed to prefer gentle and submissive women?"

"Haven't we got enough submissive ones back home? Those three couldn't last one bout against me now. You're tougher, so you'll lead the charge ahead."

Ding Yan's cheeks turned red at once, and she snapped in fury: "Quit spouting rubbish—everyone's right here!"

Feigning rage, she abruptly lifted her hand and unleashed a surprise blast.

A beam of energy laser hurtled straight at Liang Yuan.

Instinctively, Liang Yuan thrust one palm into empty space.

Boom! The energy laser detonated right in his hand.

Yet, that apparently mighty blast left Liang Yuan completely unscathed.

Ding Yan stared in astonishment and blurted out: "Not even that could touch you?"

Liang Yuan's expression turned grim: "Why'd you attack me out of nowhere again?"

Ding Yan refused to back down: "You're ridiculously powerful these days, and you won't let me catch you off guard? Then how am I supposed to beat you?"

Liang Yuan had nothing to say, but Ding Yan pressed on: "What's your secret? Did you activate some ability earlier? How'd you shrug off a direct hit like that?"

Liang Yuan sighed in resignation: "My physical attribute is at 82 points already. Can your laser gun's explosion even hit 82?"

"What?! Your physical attribute hit 82 points? You're inhuman—how on earth did you train up like that?"

Ding Yan reeled in shock, aware that physical attributes covered endurance, recovery, defense, and more.

Superior physique usually meant superior stamina, rapid healing, and robust defenses.

That's the hallmark of most physique ability users.

Never in her wildest dreams did she expect Liang Yuan's physical attribute to have soared to 82 points!
