Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1544: True·Night Parade of One Hundred Demons

The Colombian naval aircraft on the outskirts of Edo City wobbled violently in the blast, immediately retreating to evade this powerful energy surge.
Yet under this strike, Zhang Yi had not been obliterated. Even his Dimensional Gates remained perfectly intact!
Kami-musubi-no-Kami stared in disbelief at the scene.
"How could this be? Not even my attack can penetrate his defense?"
Zhang Yi lowered his right hand, a triumphant grin curling at the corner of his mouth.
"Just as I imagined!"
After years of combat, Zhang Yi was no stranger to contact with the mysterious underground civilization.
Over this time, he had also been gathering intelligence, studying these enigmatic existences.
Of course, he hadn't come away empty-handed.
For instance, why had these powerful beings always hidden themselves in the underworld, never surfacing on the earth?Even now, Zhang Yi had encountered beings as suffocatingly powerful as the Gatekeeper of the Underworld and Bai Longzi.
Yet they still clung to their territories, showing great resistance to appearing in the outside world.
By common logic, with human strength alone, there was no stopping them.
Even if an existence on Bai Longzi's level appeared, they could destroy everything—even world-class superpowers like Huaxu Nation.
Thus, a guess formed in Zhang Yi's mind.
Those mysterious beings of the underworld were bound by some force, unable to easily manifest on the surface.
These were just speculations.
But after arriving in Neon, Zhang Yi became firmly convinced of this idea.
After all, if these guys could freely appear on the surface, they wouldn't have watched him kill the Ultimate Evil Boy with their own eyes.
Second, if they could deploy enough power, they wouldn't have allowed the Colombian navy to continue occupying Neon's vital ports.
So, weighing everything together, Zhang Yi reached this conclusion—Neon's hidden mysterious forces, while formidable, weren't overwhelmingly powerful. They might not even match the Demon Kingdom under the Snowy Highland.
Moreover, their manifestation was restricted by some force.
A smile played on Zhang Yi's lips. He never risked his life recklessly.
And this time, he had bet correctly!
The enemy before him, Kami-musubi-no-Kami, had displayed strength of at most 25,000 points!
Though stronger than him by a margin, it was still a fight he could handle!
"Then... what I need to do now is buy time. And see what happens when you mysterious beings show yourselves in the world."
Two against four—the situation wasn't great.
But Zhang Yi wasn't worried about it.
The power of the Three Great Ghost Kings posed no threat to him because his defense had no blind spots.
Only those fragile Transcendents had glaring vulnerabilities, giving lower-tier Transcendents a chance to strike.
"It seems you've evolved again in your battle with the Boy!"
Kami-musubi-no-Kami spoke to Zhang Yi.
His language was standard Chinese—mastering languages seemed effortless for him.
Earlier, he had used Neon language to communicate with the Ultimate Evil Boy.
"As expected from talent trained by Dragon Nation! But this makes killing you worthwhile!"
"Before you die, let me tell you my name."
"They call me—Kami-musubi-no-Kami!"
As Kami-musubi-no-Kami proclaimed his title, Zhang Yi immediately received a prompt from his smart system.
According to the *Kojiki*, when Neon's heaven and earth were born, three principal gods existed, known as the Three Pillar Gods.
Their status and age surpassed even Amaterasu, lord of the Takamagahara pantheon, and her father and mother, Izanagi and Izanami.
These Three Pillar Gods were Ame-no-Minakanushi-no-Kami, Takami-musubi-no-Kami, and Kami-musubi-no-Kami.
In Neon's mythology, they were the gods of gods!
He swung his scepter, aiming at Zhang Yi's direction.
"Attack!"
As Kami-musubi-no-Kami's voice fell, the Three Great Ghost Kings behind him immediately scattered, encircling Zhang Yi and Huahua.
The Nukekubi, hands tucked in his sleeves, sat cross-legged atop the massive Canine God's head, a mocking grin on his face as he stared at Zhang Yi.
The Great Tengu struck first.
His crimson face was filled with fury, his enormous white wings flapping as he raised the index finger of his right hand high toward the sky.
"Divine Might Descends!"
The moment the words left his mouth, a violent storm erupted in the sky. A massive whirlpool formed at the center of the dark clouds, spinning rapidly.
The cyclone's eye appeared, and the black clouds rolled downward, interspersed with silver lightning bolts racing endlessly.
In an instant, a colossal hurricane formed between heaven and earth—massive as a mountain!
Zhang Yi had seen tornadoes online before, but this hurricane was far more terrifying. Its size dwarfed Undying Mountain, with a radius of over ten kilometers. The central region bulged outward, completely pitch-black from the gathered storm clouds, silver arcs of lightning flashing and crackling continuously.
This single strike was enough to destroy a small city!
And now, it came roaring straight at Zhang Yi and Huahua!
"Wind? Useless against me!"
A cold smirk curled on Zhang Yi's lips.
He didn't act. Instead, Huahua opened its massive jaws, letting out a deafening roar.
"ROAR—!"
Powerful energy condensed in its mouth, crimson supernatural powers forming a massive sphere. Then, aimed at the mountain-like hurricane hurtling toward them, it fired a thick high-energy particle beam cannon with a thunderous "BOOM!"
The crimson energy pierced the space before them, striking directly into the storm's core!
The collision of these two forces obliterated countless buildings in Edo City below.
Once Asia's largest metropolis, it crumbled like a clay model city under the clash of two Epsilon-class super-beasts.
Skyscrapers toppled one after another, and soon the city's outskirts were flattened, revealing the bare earth beneath.
"Hehehe!"
At that moment, an aged laugh echoed.
The Nukekubi fixed his gaze on Zhang Yi and Huahua, activating his ability.
"The Tumbler fell!"
He clapped his hands cheerfully.
In an instant, the space around Zhang Yi and Huahua seemed to freeze solid, their bodies locked in an immobile state.
Fortunately, this wasn't their first encounter with this ability, so they already had a countermeasure.
As long as Manifold Phenomena remained active, even if their bodies couldn't move, a perfect defense was maintained.
The Canine God opened its mouth, unleashing a breath attack similar to Huahua's. The terrifying energy vanished completely into dimensional space, disappearing without even stirring a ripple.
The Canine God's ability index was only around 13,000 points. An attack of this level couldn't even tickle Zhang Yi anymore.
Seeing this, the Nukekubi frowned. He leaped high into the air, drawing the famed blade [Kiri-kiri] from his waist and slashing at Zhang Yi's Dimensional Gates.
Struck by this blade, the target's original properties remained unchanged, but everything would be split apart.
If a person were cut, they'd be split in half yet still alive—needing tape to hold themselves together just to walk, but otherwise no different from an ordinary person.
But if Zhang Yi's space was severed, it too would be split, unable to block incoming attacks.
