Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1551: The Majestic Wrath of Heaven
Previously on Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies...
Zhang Yi's sudden disappearance from his position plunged Kami-musubi-no-Kami into a frenzy of madness.
He was currently fighting at full power, racing against time to cut Zhang Yi down!
Every single second he lingered here made him more vulnerable by another degree!
And the thirty seconds he had declared were already long past.
Kami-musubi-no-Kami was absolutely furious. He whipped his head around to look into the distance, where Canero should have been aiming his rifle at him. The man had long since fled.
Kami-musubi-no-Kami clenched his fists and began launching indiscriminate attacks at everything around him.
But his furious, berserk energy could only vent itself into the empty void.
Edo City, after this day, was completely and utterly finished.
Then, very abruptly, a brilliant white light flared in the high heavens above.
The sky behind Kami-musubi-no-Kami grew bright.As if, night had ended and dawn had arrived.
At this moment, it was daytime, not night.
The darkness he had forcibly summoned was dispelled by an even more powerful force.
But his violent energy could only vent itself into the empty void.
His eyes were filled with shock and terror, and his body instantly went rigid.
A moment later.
A thunderous roar, powerful enough to shatter the eardrums of everyone below, came from the high heavens. Every corner of Edo City could hear this sound with absolute clarity.
It was as if a god stood above the nine heavens, raising a drumstick to strike a war drum!
"BOOM—"
The sound of thunder rang out without end. What had struck Kami-musubi-no-Kami was a bolt of lightning that had arrived in an instant!
Deng Shentong and the others were completely dumbfounded.
They had been fighting desperately against the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, but that thunderbolt had torn through the sky, illuminating all of Edo.
The ferocious ghostly apparitions all vanished in an instant, scattering like ashes in the wind.
The dark clouds in the sky dispersed rapidly, and Edo was restored to light. Everything happened so quickly that the sinister darkness of moments before seemed like nothing more than an illusion.
Kami-musubi-no-Kami was dead.
That colossal bolt of lightning, beyond all imagination, had pierced straight through his body and burned him completely to a charred crisp.
In the void, a crack split open. An arm reached out from within, then firmly grasped his fading Essence before it could dissipate!
Zhang Yi stored away Kami-musubi-no-Kami's Essence and looked up at the sky with lingering fear.
Not a single cloud in sight.
The dense dark clouds had dispersed, and the sky was now a pristine azure blue, a sight not seen in a long time.
"Tribulation lightning?"
This phrase surfaced in Zhang Yi's mind.
In the cultivation novels of the Huaxu Nation, the might of thunder and lightning was always treated with utmost reverence. The classical novels even had tales of overcoming tribulation lightning.
Yet today, he had witnessed this terrifying scene with his own eyes.
Kami-musubi-no-Kami, with an ability index close to 30,000 points, had been struck dead by a single bolt of lightning!
Although Zhang Yi had already sensed, somewhere deep in his intuition, that those mysterious civilizations did not appear in the mortal world because they were restricted by some even greater existence.
But he had never understood what that thing was.
Until this very moment, when he witnessed the majestic wrath of heaven.
Zhang Yi rubbed his brow, feeling that the world he lived in was becoming increasingly surreal.
"Could it be that immortals really exist in this world? Or some creator god who controls everything?"
"Forget it, no matter how much I think about these things, I can't figure them out. I need to get out of this place quickly!"
Zhang Yi looked down at Edo City below. The entire city was now nearly completely destroyed.
With the deaths of Ultimate Evil Boy and Kami-musubi-no-Kami, the controlled "Seed Humans" slowly began to awaken from the ruins.
Most of them had already been killed by the shockwaves of the battle.
Those who had just woken up let out screams of agony.
"So cold, so cold!"
"Help! What is this place? Why is there rubble everywhere?"
"I... what happened to me? Why am I suddenly here?"
...
The screams represented Edo City's utter chaos.
But Zhang Yi had no time to concern himself with them. Having lost the parasitic Nomadic Insects, they were nothing more than ordinary people now.
Soon, most of them would die from the extreme cold.
However, they would likely have to experience the tragic horrors of the early apocalypse all over again.
Zhang Yi landed on Undying Mountain. Deng Shentong and the others had just been through a major battle and didn't look like they were in great shape.
"It's time to leave!"
Zhang Yi turned to look at Undying Mountain. This active volcano, symbolizing the national fate of Neon, had already collapsed halfway from its peak.
The enormous fossils of ancient creatures were now fully exposed.
"That's..."
Liang Yue stared at the colossal fossils and cried out in shock.
"A dragon."
Deng Shentong said with absolute certainty.
Indeed, those enormous fossils of ancient creatures were unmistakably the shape of giant dragons from myths and legends.
The elongated body, the claws, and the bone horns atop the head perfectly matched people's imagination of divine dragons.
However, these were not fossils of just a single dragon.
Existing alongside it were several other bizarre creature fossils. They seemed to be intertwined, locked in a death struggle.
One could clearly see the dragon's claws piercing through their bodies, and the way they had bitten into the dragon in their dying moments, their teeth embedded deep into its bones.
"This looks like a battle of giant creatures from an ancient era!"
Zhang Yi remarked.
He reached out his hand, activating his spatial power. The entire fossil of the ancient creature floated up and was stored away into his dimensional space.
He felt that bringing this thing back would be of great research value.
Looking back at Edo and Undying Mountain, including Tenshu Palace, there were no longer any decent structures left standing anywhere in Edo.
"Forget it, there's nothing left worth looting here."
Zhang Yi didn't want to stay any longer. He had just been through a major battle, and most of his Dimensional Gates had been destroyed.
If Cadillus and Canero came to fight him now, Zhang Yi might find himself in some trouble.
"Let's head back!"
He gathered everyone, opened a Dimensional Gate, and shuttled back toward Tianshui City.
None of them noticed that at the volcanic crater of Undying Mountain, two illusory black shadows had appeared.
"Kami-musubi is dead."
One black shadow spoke coldly.
The other black shadow said, "I warned him. The time is not yet right. Appearing in this world is dangerous."
"He underestimated the danger of the outside world."
"But he was cultivated at enormous cost by our clan. Now that he's dead, how do we answer to the clan?"
"There's nothing to be done about it. The greatest loss is that our scheme at Zepan has been destroyed."
The other black shadow looked at him. "What, do you need to cultivate a new Agent?"
The black shadow said, "Let's talk about it later! This world is changing every moment. And cultivating someone of that caliber no longer holds any meaning."
After the two black shadows finished speaking, they gradually faded into the void.
From beginning to end, Zhang Yi never detected their presence.
