Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1531: Infinite-Thousand-Blade Style

Under the night sky, the entire city of Edo had transformed into an ocean of maggots.

Those enormous maggots, the smallest of them as long as an adult's arm, had even spawned terrifying monsters reaching one or two meters in length!

They writhed like twisted rivers, rolling in wave after wave toward the Undying Mountain region.

Even Zhang Yi, seeing such a sight, furrowed his brows and barely suppressed the urge to vomit.

The situation before him was truly becoming difficult to handle.

There were hundreds of thousands of these energy-devouring maggots, and the best way to annihilate them all was through physical attacks.

However, a method like [War King] could only be used once within a short period of time.

At the very least, for now, Zhang Yi couldn't reload those guns and cannons again.

His other means were hard-pressed to kill such an immense swarm of maggots.

At the base of the Undying Mountain, amidst the ocean of maggots, the Ultimate Evil Boy's voice slowly echoed.

"Chaos, you are indeed strong! This time, you've made me consume at least a hundred thousand or more [Seed Humans]! So, you must die!"

The Ultimate Evil Boy's body emerged from the sea of maggots.

But this time, he had completely lost all trace of human form.

What appeared before Zhang Yi was a twisted, grotesque monster.

It was no longer human, but a creature with two pairs of black-gray translucent wings, eight slender jointed limbs, and a body covered in hard black-gray carapace. From the shell on its head extended a spike-like proboscis.

It looked like a mosquito over ten meters long, or a disgusting, foul-smelling winged mantis.

Zhang Yi stared at him with a grave expression.

"So, for your own sake, you killed hundreds of thousands of residents in all of Edo, right?"

Hearing this, the Ultimate Evil Boy immediately retorted, "What are you talking about? I gave them a second life! No, I extended their lives!"

He flew into the air, level with Zhang Yi, and cheerfully introduced his masterpiece to him.

"Every single one of them has my Nomadic Insect inside their bodies. With the Nomadic Insects, they can live just like before, without worrying about freezing to death in the extreme cold."

"You know? In the past, I was just a maggot in this city, a homeless vagrant. So the thing I feared most was freezing to death in the dead of night! Now they don't have to worry about that problem anymore."

"Moreover, with my Nomadic Insects inside them, no matter how severe their injuries, they can be healed!"

"They don't need to do anything, they don't need to think about anything; they only need to exist as seeds for the Yamato race. They just need to continue the bloodline of this nation! What's wrong with that?"

He lifted his grotesque mantis head high, as if reveling in everything he had done.

"And I am the true savior of Neon!"

Zhang Yi couldn't refute the Ultimate Evil Boy's methods; perhaps what the Ultimate Evil Boy said was correct.

Repeating the same life every day, without continuous memories, yet able to live in peace—might not be a form of happiness in itself.

But unfortunately, today, Zhang Yi had arrived.

Looking down at the dense sea of maggots below, they had already gathered together and surged upward toward the sky.

Behind them were the five hundred thousand residents of all of Edo.

However, did Zhang Yi care?

Of course not.

"I originally only wanted to take back what belongs to my Huaxu Nation and then leave."

Zhang Yi raised the Sword in the Tree in his hand. The green long sword was now tinged with a layer of silver-gray, emitting a faint, icy gleam.

The second form of the Sword in the Tree, after merging with the nanobots, could transform it into a metallic sword form as tough as [Holy Judgment], making it even sharper.

"Now, I have no choice but to turn all of Edo into an empty city!"

Zhang Yi had no interest in massacring cities. Though he wasn't a soft-hearted man, he was also not a butcher who reveled in killing.

But if forced to, he wouldn't hesitate.

So then, let the killing begin!

"Although it will be a bit slower, you don't actually think I'm weak in close combat, do you?"

Zhang Yi waved his left hand, and within a three-kilometer radius around him, the flow of time rapidly slowed!

Self-speed boost, 100 times!

In his eyes, the writhing ocean of maggots seemed frozen still.

To kill the Ultimate Evil Boy, he had to eliminate the entire sea of maggots, as these things provided him with energy.

So then, let the killing drag on!

Zhang Yi dove down, and the silver Sword in the Tree in his hand grew massive, transforming into a forty-meter-long greatsword, then aimed it at the sea of maggots below and slashed down fiercely!

This was destined to be a protracted battle.

But some people seemed to forget that a certain someone, from his very debut until now, had always been renowned for his endurance.

...

On the other side, Liang Yue's battle was perilous!

She had been dragged by Narumi Soji into the [Infinite Sword Domain].

Here, everywhere was filled with swords and blades thrust into the ground, allowing Narumi Soji's Thousand-Blade Style to manifest perfectly.

His swordsmanship was extremely skilled, his sword techniques were cunning, and crucially, the entire battlefield was at his disposal.

Unsheathed swords, dual-wielding, flying blades and clustered edges—various techniques kept Liang Yue constantly on the back foot.

But Liang Yue's fighting style was also very steady. One person, one blade, with the blade forming a Taiji circle around her body.

Blue psychic energy flowed around her, easily repelling every blade that struck near her!

Over a thousand swords and blades, he wielded them with effortless fluidity, not a single one being superfluous.

"Infinite, Thousand-Blade Style!"

Narumi Soji held two famous swords in his hands, and all the swords and blades on the entire battlefield instantly rose into the air, then aimed at Liang Yue.

He slowly bent his legs, and an instant later, he shot straight toward Liang Yue.

At the same time, over a thousand swords and blades rained down from all directions!

Every direction centered on Liang Yue was completely exposed, with no blind spots, all carrying lethal attacks!

An instant, a thousand strikes! And they were terrifyingly fast, accompanied by the wielder's own frontal assault!

Faced with such an onslaught, Liang Yue made an unbelievable move.

She closed her eyes.

Since it was an attack with no blind spots, it was absolutely impossible for her naked eyes to track every blade aimed at her.

But the heart's eye was formless.

She held Dragon's Roar in both hands, the blade's edge pointing diagonally toward the ground.

The moment she closed her eyes, she opened an entirely new world.

With her as the center, beyond a five-hundred-meter radius, there was nothing but endless dark voids.

But within the five-hundred-meter range, everything was clearly visible, and even slowed down.

A true master is always adept at learning the abilities of others and turning them into their own.

This technique came from a master swordsman of the Eclipse Moon she had once slain, the Niten Ichi-ryū Menkyo Kaiden—Tsukamoto Nobunaga.

Perhaps Tsukamoto Nobunaga's strength was far inferior to the Narumi Soji of today, but in terms of swordsmanship, he indeed represented the absolute pinnacle of Neon.

With oneself as the center, within one's personal space, the blade could instantly reach any point.

This technique was called—Ten'yuan!
