Liang Yuan found himself facing Wu Yaobang's snake-headed dinosaur clones, which could absorb their fallen brethren to grow stronger. Liang Yuan devised a strategy to fight them, leading Wu Yaobang into an underwater battle where his ice abilities gave him an advantage. However, the enemy deployed amphibious armored vehicles that transformed into submarines, forcing Liang Yuan to adapt his tactics by using his Dark Abyss Mouth to capture the vehicles and their crews.

Wu Yaobang was aware of Liang Yuan’s strategy, it seemed.

Should his armored convoy be destroyed by the enemy, his ability to create clones meant he couldn't guarantee killing Liang Yuan in a direct confrontation.

Thus, his immediate plan was to race to Yangshan, seize Liang Yuan’s family, and use them as a bargaining chip.

This tactic was akin to the ancient stratagem of 'besieging Wei to rescue Zhao.'

If Liang Yuan chose to continue his engagement with the Mengya armored convoy beneath the ice, neglecting to intercept Wu Yaobang, Yangshan would face grave peril.

Given Wu Yaobang’s combat prowess, he could easily decimate Yangshan by splitting into multiple clones!

Liang Yuan had already extended his spiritual sense, keenly observing movements on the icy surface.

He witnessed the sole armored vehicle detach and transform into an aircraft, ascending towards Yangshan.

His expression shifted instantaneously as he grasped the enemy’s objective.

Without further hesitation, disregarding the remaining five submarines, Liang Yuan’s figure blurred as he gave chase to the aircraft that the armored vehicle had become.

While airborne, the Ice Bear materialized, its entire form coalescing into a colossal ice sphere!

In the subsequent moment, this ice sphere launched like a meteor.

Its velocity was so immense that it nearly instantly overtook the aircraft the armored vehicle had transformed into.

Boom!

A thunderous sound rent the sky.

The aircraft’s external shield was obliterated in an instant.

Following the shattering of the Light Shield, the ice ball, much like a comet, violently impacted the aircraft.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions erupted, and the aircraft detonated immediately.

Dozens of individuals bailed out of the aircraft as it disintegrated.

Some scattered, attempting to escape, while others erected light shields for protection.

One individual turned, hurtling fiercely towards the Ice Bear.

"Sealing Array!"

Buzz!

Amidst the seemingly retreating Seedling Team members, a shout suddenly echoed.

Abruptly, several individuals activated circular devices.

Instantly, beams of light erupted, weaving a complex pattern in the air within moments.

A Sealing Array materialized!

Liang Yuan sensed his superpower energy being suppressed!

In a flash, his Genetic Reorganization State collapsed, and he involuntarily began to shrink, rapidly diminishing in size.

He reverted to his human form!

Approaching rapidly, Wu Yaobang closed the distance.

He maintained his aerial trajectory, and only then did Liang Yuan notice the flight apparatus strapped to his back.

Without superpower manipulation, flight was impossible through any other means.

Liang Yuan felt an immediate, uncontrollable pull of gravity, causing him to plummet towards the earth!

From such an altitude, without the protection of superpower abilities, survival was uncertain, and severe injury was almost guaranteed.

And Wu Yaobang was still in hot pursuit!

Wu Yaobang’s visage contorted with ferocity: "Liang Yuan, no matter how cunning you are, trapped within the Sealing Array, your tricks have run dry, haven't they!"

"Ahahaha, perish!"

Mid-air, he drew a firearm from his waist and fired directly at Liang Yuan!

Boom!

A deafening shot rang out, and a bullet sped towards Liang Yuan!

It was unexpected that the Mengya Company, despite developing superpower technology weapons, still retained conventional firearms!

However, with the advent of Sealing Runes, all factions acknowledged that superpower weapons were not infallible.

When confronted with Sealing-type armaments or users, superpower weapons lost their efficacy.

Consequently, upon developing superpower technology, many factions recognized this limitation and deliberately maintained gunpowder weapons for such contingencies.

The Mengya organization, having pioneered the tri-service armored convoy, had certainly considered this aspect.

It was precisely this foresight that Wu Yaobang aimed to exploit to eliminate Liang Yuan permanently!

An ordinary superpower user in Liang Yuan’s predicament would surely be facing their doom!

Yet, Liang Yuan was no ordinary superpower user!

He possessed a system inventory!

Whoosh!

Observing Liang Yuan suspended in mid-air, he extended his hand and, with a grab, a car materialized before him.

Clang, clang, clang…

Bullets struck the car, producing a cascade of metallic sounds.

Sparks flew as Liang Yuan took cover behind the car's chassis, descending rapidly from a hundred meters along with the vehicle.

His expression remained utterly devoid of panic.

Once more, he retrieved a lengthy rope from his system storage!

A substantial iron block was affixed to one end of the rope.

Without a moment’s hesitation, he executed a powerful throw!

Whoosh—!

The rope soared skyward, the iron block cutting through the air.

It generated a distinct sonic boom as it streaked through the atmosphere.

Wu Yaobang couldn’t believe his eyes, stammering, "Impossible! How can you still wield spatial superpowers!"

But Liang Yuan paid him no mind. He grasped the long rope, then sprang, powerfully kicking the vehicle below!

In an instant, the vehicle’s speed was drastically increased as it plummeted towards the ground.

Yet, he used this momentum from the leap to yank the rope, defying gravity, and shot himself into the void!

Witnessing such an unorthodox maneuver, Wu Yaobang’s face filled with terror.

He swiftly manipulated his flying device, attempting a rapid evasion.

At this precise moment, he was also ensnared by the Sealing Array, rendering him incapable of using any of his superpowers.

His sole recourse was the flying device attached to his body and the firearm clutched in his hand.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

While making a swift escape, he relentlessly pulled the trigger.

But in the next breath, his expression contorted in shock!

He observed Liang Yuan's kinetic energy falter, and the figure began to plummet once more.

However, a series of steel bars materialized in Liang Yuan's grasp!

Liang Yuan suddenly thrust his arm forward!

Woo! Woo! Woo!

Three steel bars sliced through the air, emitting sonic booms, and hurtled towards Wu Yaobang with unbelievable velocity!

Wu Yaobang frantically commanded his aircraft to accelerate away in a desperate bid for freedom.

Bang!

Unfortunately, his evasive path had already been foreseen by Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan's arms continued their relentless motion, unleashing a barrage of steel bars with furious intent.

With Liang Yuan's inherent strength attribute, even without resorting to superpowers, his explosive muscle power could exert forces equivalent to several tons.

These steel bars, at this moment, proved far more menacing than mere bullets!

Boom!

A resounding explosion erupted as one of the steel bars impacted and shattered the shoulder section of Wu Yaobang's aircraft, causing it to detonate instantly.

Seeing the situation spiraling out of control, Wu Yaobang bellowed in anguish, "Deactivate the array! Damn it, shut down the array!"

Buzz!

Upon hearing his desperate command, the Seedling Team members hastily disengaged the Sealing Array.

Instantly, the flow of superpower energy resumed its circulation.

Wu Yaobang, who had been suspended in mid-air, suddenly dissolved into a mist of blood, initiating gene recombination.

In a flash, he reverted to his original form: the serpent-headed dinosaur.

Simultaneously, Liang Yuan stabilized his descent the very instant the array's effects ceased.

A chilling smile graced his features as he declared, "Wu Yaobang, it's far from certain who will meet their end here!"

Bang!

He too transformed into a blood mist instantaneously. Undergoing gene recombination, a colossal, dark maw ripped open in the sky!

It was the Dark Abyss Mouth!

This time, without the interference of the light-attribute energy bullets from the armored convoy, Liang Yuan unleashed his Dark Abyss Shadow Dragon form without hesitation.

In a blink, the Dark Abyss Shadow Dragon ascended, casting a vast shadow that instantly enveloped everything below.

High in the sky, the members of the Seedling Team were immediately consumed.

They didn’t even have the chance to utter a scream before being utterly converted into two-dimensional shadows!

Witnessing this horrifying spectacle, Wu Yaobang’s expression turned exceedingly grim.

He fixed his gaze upon Liang Yuan, admitting, "I never anticipated that in just a few months, you would grow this formidable. I truly underestimated your capabilities."

The Dark Abyss Shadow Dragon swiveled its head, bringing its encroaching darkness directly towards Wu Yaobang.

"You are remarkably composed. Does this mean this is not your true form?"

"Haha, do you honestly believe that with an ability like mine, I would risk my actual body in such a perilous situation?"

Wu Yaobang chuckled faintly, informing Liang Yuan, "This encounter is considered my defeat for now, but do not grow complacent. I shall return."

"Oh, perhaps not. When the harsh winter relents and the snows melt, this very Linjiang may transform entirely into an ocean."

"You were fortunate to seize my Spatial Floating Island."

"However, the resources contained within these Floating Islands are finite. Eventually, you will be forced to venture north."

"Haha, Liang, my avatars are innumerable. Next time, you won't have the opportunity to intercept me along the way."

"I will descend directly upon your domain and eradicate every single one of your cherished friends and relatives."

"Await my arrival ——"

Boom!

As his final words echoed, Wu Yaobang abandoned all he possessed at that location, initiating a self-destruction of his physical form in an explosive manner, leaving Liang Yuan no chance to absorb him.

Liang Yuan’s gaze remained icy as the Dark Abyss Shadow Dragon patrolled the skies, ceaselessly devouring all in its vicinity.

"Haha, the next time? The next time we meet, you will only be able to look up to me!"

Liang Yuan let out a cold laugh, fully aware that all he required was the passage of time.

With the system in his possession, time was eternally on his side!

Boom!

The icy surface fractured, and the Dark Abyss Shadow Dragon submerged beneath the water, scouring the surrounding area. It swiftly detected the armored vehicles operating in submarine mode.

Without a moment's hesitation, Liang Yuan directly pulled the trapped Seedling Team members into the shadow world, subsequently transferring all the armored convoys into his inventory.

"These armored vehicles possess significant superpower technology. If we bring them back for R&D to dismantle, it could propel Yangshan into a new era of technological advancement!"

Liang Yuan propelled himself through the water, intending to depart the area. However, an unexpected tremor struck at that precise moment. A profound sense of impending doom washed over him. Acting on pure instinct, Liang Yuan retreated into his Sumeru Space. Boom! The underwater expanse, once utterly dark, began to tremble violently. Shortly after, colossal structures submerged beneath the waves crumbled with a thunderous crash! From the dark silt, a gargantuan fissure, spanning nearly a hundred meters, ripped open. Rising from the chasm was a colossal beast adorned with crimson patterns! It bore a resemblance to a monstrous serpent but possessed a leonine head, its mane flowing eerily underwater. The head alone was as massive as a heavy truck. Its eyes, resembling enormous lanterns, discharged scarlet beams of light as they opened. Liang Yuan perceived a terrifying pressure emanating outwards. Wherever this pressure extended, the marine mutant creatures instinctively cowered in the mud, utterly paralyzed. Crack, crack, crack! The seabed convulsed as this monstrous mutant slowly propelled itself, commencing its consumption of the immobile mutant fish and shrimp. The prey didn't dare to flee even as it was devoured. Concealed within the Sumeru Space, Liang Yuan bore witness to this entire spectacle, his expression a mask of shock. After a considerable duration, the monster slowly maneuvered its body, plunging into the distant cityscape of submerged buildings and vanishing entirely. Only then did the fish and shrimp appear to regain their senses, frantically twisting their forms and fleeing with utmost celerity. Liang Yuan's heart pounded within his chest as he remained hidden in the Sumeru Space, observing this scene, too apprehensive to emerge immediately. He waited for an extended period, until the external commotion finally subsided and some mutant fish began to leisurely navigate the vicinity once more. The fractured ice layer resealed itself, reforming into a thick, solid sheet. Only then did Liang Yuan cautiously exit the Sumeru Space. Without a moment's delay, he swiftly breached the dense ice and made his way back to solid ground. "What was that entity? The sensation it evoked was utterly terrifying?" Liang Yuan's face was grave; that creature instilled in him a primal, life-threatening fear. "Could it be a creature at the genetic reorganization stage?" "No, it might not even require reorganization; perhaps that was its natural form!" "It's only been a little over a year, and the underwater realm has already birthed such a dreadful being?"
