Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1678: Going All Out

Li Changgong swung his blade through the air, directly cleaving apart the Gatekeeper of the Underworld’s attack!

After he struck, Zhang Yi and Shang Daowen carefully had him stand behind everyone else.

His offensive power was formidable, but his defenses were extremely weak. The Gatekeeper of the Underworld could easily kill him instantly.

Li Changgong was sensible enough to stay behind the others. The corners of his mouth lifted, and he couldn’t help smiling.

For the first time, a look of astonishment appeared in the Gatekeeper of the Underworld’s eyes.

“My attack was actually blocked?”

This seemed to be beyond his expectations, but he soon understood.

“Looks like that fellow has some kind of ability that can nullify attacks.”

He stared at Li Changgong aboard the train and spoke slowly.

“But all of this is nothing more than a futile struggle.”

A terrifying black supernatural power suddenly surged skyward from his body, transforming above into a hundred thousand sharp swords that densely filled the entire sky.

Then he pointed his right hand toward the train. The countless black swords plunged down from the sky, heading straight for Zhang Yi and the others!

Li Changgong was dumbfounded. “With attacks this dense, there’s no way I can stop them all by myself!”

And if even one sword fell, the terrifying power within it would be enough to kill him instantly!

“Ghost Train, relocate!”

Shang Daowen spoke slowly.

Rumble!

The Ghost Train sped through the void. Just as the sky-darkening rain of black swords was about to fall, it vanished into the mist like a phantom.

“Rumble!!!!”

The terrifying rain of swords struck the land of Tianshui City, mercilessly ravaging it and laying waste to everything on the surface!

The Gatekeeper of the Underworld saw no trace of the train and couldn’t sense any spatial fluctuations.

“Is it a space-type ability user?”

He was right. The Ghost Train’s driver was Sky Swift Star, Dai Sheng.

He had already covered Tianshui City with spatial coordinates.

With the help of this Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation, he could use his ability to make the train travel through the void and instantly relocate to another position.

That was how they avoided the Gatekeeper of the Underworld’s attacks.

Although everyone had escaped the Gatekeeper of the Underworld’s terrifying attack, they still felt shaken by his power.

“His strength is on a completely different level from ours! How are we supposed to restrain him?”

Li Changgong voiced the question on his mind.

Zhang Yi said, “Don’t worry. An existence at this level will face enormous restrictions even when moving on land. At the very least, he can’t bring his full strength to bear, and he won’t be able to stay for long.”

“From the very beginning, our goal hasn’t been to kill him! It’s to buy as much time as possible.”

His gaze darkened, and he spoke as if he had made up his mind:

“And if things really reach the point of no return, we still have one last move we can try!”

As soon as Chaoyu Base was destroyed, Zhang Yi had already asked Yang Xinxin to notify the other two bases to evacuate Tianshui City immediately.

Even the underground shelters were no longer safe. Their only chance of survival was to flee Tianshui City.

Because in the battle to come, every inch of the entire city would likely end up like a field that had been plowed.

“Understood, Brother!”

Yang Xinxin immediately notified the people currently in charge of Qingpu Base and Yangsheng Base.

Xing Tian, Xiao Honglian, and the others had already been taken into Mu Yan’s Shadow Space by Zhang Yi. The two bases had been left under the temporary management of other people.

“The shelters are no longer safe. Evacuate immediately! While the enemy isn’t focused on you, head north!”

“You have to be quick! Otherwise, everyone will die.”

Yang Xinxin’s voice was icy. She didn’t particularly care whether the others lived or died.

She was simply carrying out her brother’s orders to the letter.

After learning that Chaoyu Base had been destroyed and everyone there had died, panic began to spread through both bases.

But neither Zhang Yi nor anyone else had the time to worry about them.

Fortunately, the bases had made thorough preparations, and they had plenty of snow vehicles.

Under the temporary commanders’ arrangements, large numbers of people fled toward other cities to the north.

Aboard the Ghost Train, Houtu was carefully carving a wooden puppet of the Gatekeeper of the Underworld.

By now, she had taken in every detail of his appearance.

The power of the Divine Path of Heaven, Observe the Form, had been fully established.

Houtu gripped the puppet, a dark light flickering in her eyes.

“A little puppet with such a vile nature. Causing destruction everywhere. Bind it with chains!”

As soon as she spoke, the puppet in her hand fell. The train car beneath her feet had become a dark, bottomless pool.

The puppet sank into it without making a sound.

Dai Sheng continued driving the train through the void. The sound of chains rang in their ears: “Clatter, clatter…”

Two enormous demon gods, Black and White Impermanence, rose from the train car. Beside their towering forms, the entire train seemed like a toy.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi and the others couldn’t help feeling a little hopeful.

Houtu had finally made her move!

Zhang Yi was also eager to see what kind of power this legendary number-one figure in Huaxu Nation truly possessed.

Rumble!

The Ghost Train emerged from the void once more, and Black and White Impermanence followed the chains of fate to the Gatekeeper of the Underworld.

The use of the Six Paths of Reincarnation had spatial limitations.

But with Dai Sheng’s ability, Houtu could keep traveling through the void. This allowed her to keep the Gatekeeper of the Underworld within the range of her ability without letting him pinpoint her location and kill her instantly.

The lower halves of Black and White Impermanence’s bodies were somewhat insubstantial, but their enormous forms began to enclose the Gatekeeper of the Underworld from both sides.

The Gatekeeper of the Underworld felt the power of fate lock onto him. Facing the two enormous demon gods, he attacked without hesitation.

The two fists covered in armor brimmed with overwhelming energy as he slammed them straight into Black and White Impermanence!

Two beams of light tore through the void, even reaching beyond the Eight Trigrams Formation and churning the sea!

Yet they had no effect whatsoever on the two demon gods.

Black and White Impermanence wrapped the Soul-Binding Chains around him. From beginning to end, the Gatekeeper of the Underworld had no way to resist.

A heavy sense of restraint enveloped his body, as if he really had been bound in shackles he couldn’t break free from.

“The power of curses? I see.”

The Gatekeeper of the Underworld smiled.

“But an ability this childish is meaningless to me! Even with ten million layers of shackles wrapped around me, I remain invincible beneath the heavens!”

After finishing, Houtu calmly said to Zhang Yi and the others, “This is all I can do for now. The rest is up to you.”

“According to our plan, I only need to make him bleed once.”

“Then the battle will be over!”
