Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1656: The End of Reincarnation

"It's the power of a curse! I feel my body growing weak, and my head is heavy while my feet are light."
Destruction Hall held his head with one hand, his steps somewhat unsteady, nearly losing his balance.
"This is... the power of Causality Law?"
Destruction Hall's face turned several shades paler. He barely managed to adapt to the heavy burden of the curse on his body.
Although this strike hadn't taken their lives, it was clearly an extremely powerful debuff that greatly affected their condition and combat ability.
"If this is all it amounts to, then it's manageable! Kill her! We must end this quickly, otherwise their reinforcements could arrive at any moment."
Destruction Hall said in a low voice: "Especially that one in the small coastal city. He absolutely must not appear on this battlefield!"
What they feared most right now was not the Love of Death, nor was it Shang Daowen in Wuyou Valley.
It was【Chaos】Zhang Yi, who had killed multiple of their comrades in Tianshui City.
A Space-type Transcendent who could traverse a thousand miles in an instant. If Zhang Yi truly came to rescue, he would arrive faster than anyone else.
When that time came, wanting to kill Guan Longyue would become far more troublesome for the two of them!
After all, this was a decapitation operation. The whole point was to strike when they were unprepared. The longer they delayed, the greater the chance of failure.
Destruction Hall said nothing. Both hands directly condensed energy cannons. The massive energy cannons were like a bright moon, illuminating the entire central district of Shengjing City, then rumbled forward!
Rumble rumble rumble!
His energy cannons were like giant wheels, rapidly crushing across the earth, heading straight for the Earth God Temple!
"Since the opponent is a curse-type ability user, their close-combat ability must be relatively weak. There's no need to engage at close range. Just snipe her from a distance!"
Youying also once again summoned the Shadow Giant legion, intending to deliver another fatal blow to Guan Longyue, who had lost the protection of her telekinetic barrier!
Guan Longyue still stood at the very center of the Earth God Temple with an expression of neither joy nor sorrow. Her hands hung down along with her wide sleeves, like the Lord of Reincarnation guarding the netherworld.
"Naraka Path, Black Sun."
She softly chanted these words.
In the next instant, in the area surrounding the Earth God Temple, within the region covering heaven and earth, the ground suddenly changed color.
The earth that had been covered in white snow and built of bluestone became an endless abyss, like hellish reincarnation.
From within the cycle of reincarnation, a tall black figure slowly emerged.
His entire body was pitch black, emanating thick green smoke. His form was now battered and broken beyond recognition, as though he were a charred corpse.
And when he appeared, he immediately detected the attacks hurling toward the Earth God Temple.
Those blank crimson eyes that held only the instinct to kill suddenly burst forth with an incomparably terrifying light!
He opened his mouth and let out a roar that did not sound human. Then his body, black as charcoal, abruptly erupted with streams of crimson heat like magma!
Flames surged skyward. A terrifying crimson flame whirlwind spiraled up into the sky, transforming into a crimson tornado that shielded the surroundings of the Earth God Temple.
And Destruction Hall's attack was directly blocked head-on by Black Sun, who rushed forward without hesitation, using his body that had transformed into crimson red to take the hit directly!
"What the hell is this thing?"
Destruction Hall looked at the charred thing, his brows furrowing involuntarily, his expression incomparably grim.
Because from the opponent's body, he sensed Epsilon-class combat power.
But there was something strange about it, something he couldn't quite put into words.
But when had Shengjing been hiding such an expert? And three years after the apocalypse, not a single scrap of information had leaked out?
"Watch this!"
At this moment, Youying had already prepared to unleash his ability. Over a hundred Shadow Giants opened their massive jaws, and beams of crimson supernatural energy shot forth, blasting toward the Earth God Temple!
Inside the Earth God Temple, the black-clad young woman murmured softly.
"Animal Path, Great Devourer!"
Beneath her feet, within the viscous dark shadows, ripples suddenly began to form.
These ripples grew larger and larger, eventually covering the entire Earth God Temple. The ripples spread outward, like a spiral of death.
In an instant, a bone-chilling white suddenly emerged from the black abyss.
"Hisss,"
An enormous white serpent abruptly burst out from the shadows, roaring as it coiled its body tightly around Guan Longyue, its gaze ferociously fixed ahead.
It had a pair of transparent horns on its head, and its body was at least two hundred meters long. Even coiled up, it nearly filled the entire Earth God Temple.
Youying's attack, this time with the telekinetic barrier gone, directly shattered the entire Earth God Temple!
However, after the terrifying explosion, the expected gruesome sight did not occur at all.
The massive white serpent's body curled into a complete sphere, firmly guarding Guan Longyue's body within!
This time, Destruction Hall and Youying were finally somewhat dumbfounded.
They exchanged a glance, and only now did they realize that the legendary foundations of the Shengjing district truly were not so easy to kill.
"This seems to be a special kind of summoning ability."
Destruction Hall offered his analysis.
He looked at Black Sun and Great Devourer. Their bodies indeed emanated powerful might, but after performing their defensive maneuvers, they showed no posture for a follow-up attack. Instead, they held their ground around the Earth God Temple.
"Moreover, they won't leave Houtu's vicinity. Is this a Bound Spirit existence?"
Youying extended his long tongue, licking his somewhat dry lips.
"But so what? Since we've come, if we go back without doing anything, we'll become laughingstocks!"
Their understanding of Houtu's intelligence was still far too limited.
Not just them, but the entire Huaxu Nation, and even research institutions across every nation in the world, all knew that Houtu was very strong.
They all knew that Houtu possessed the ability for ultra-long-range sniping, a curse-type supernatural power.
As long as she locked onto you, you would fall into a certain-death outcome.
But when legend becomes merely legend, people's reverence for it rapidly fades.
It seemed that as long as one didn't meet the instant-kill conditions of Houtu's【Hell's Guillotine】, then this existence standing at the pinnacle of the Transcendent world was nothing to be wary of.
But was that really the case?
Everyone understood how important intelligence was for Transcendents.
So naturally, the Shengjing district understood this principle as well.
People only knew of【Hell's Guillotine】, but never knew【Houtu's】true ability.
Houtu, the sovereign who shaped reincarnation.
Guan Longyue's true ability was called, Six Paths of Reincarnation!
And【Hell's Guillotine】was merely one of her six paths abilities.
Houtu stood within the Earth God Temple. From beginning to end, she had not moved even a single bit. Great Devourer fiercely guarded her body.
She didn't need to move, and the general consensus about her wasn't exactly wrong either.
Her close-combat ability was very weak, extremely weak.
Even an ordinary well-trained soldier could strangle her in close quarters.
But who could actually get close to her?
