Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards-Chapter 585 - 391: One Strike

But the nearly resigned Zhong Wei then noticed that Wang Zhifan did not stop his actions at this moment. The nuclear bombs blooming in high skies in all directions seemed to have no impact on him, and he completely disregarded the fact that the disaster was already out of control.

He and King then saw Wang Zhifan raise his hand, slicing his slender light saber toward the sky.

This slash didn’t appear flashy. It produced no dazzling brilliance, nor was it aimed at any particular target. It was merely a steady and resolute strike into the air, yet it instilled an unprecedented sense of awe in them.

It felt as though the unadorned attack contained incredibly powerful strength. Even though they couldn’t see or perceive it, their intuition strongly told them that an unknown power was surging forth like a torrent along that strike, overwhelming the sky with immense force and tearing open a path to another dimension.

In an instant, with Wang Zhifan unleashing this incredibly powerful slash, all the "suns" in the sky vanished in a flash, as if they had never appeared. Along with all the nuclear bombs still speeding toward Ya City from a distance, they evaporated instantly, leaving not a trace of heat or radiation, restoring the previously perilous and noisy sky to clear and calm.

"!!?!!?"

"!!!?"

"!!!"

...

No resident of Ya City could comprehend what just transpired at that moment. They couldn’t even believe that the disaster looming overhead had dissipated because the change was just too abrupt and bizarre, beyond anyone’s understanding.

King was almost frozen in shock at this moment. He was fortunate enough to witness Wang Zhifan execute that slash, and even if he couldn’t fully understand the profound principle behind it, one thing he was certain of—the sudden disappearance of all exploded and unexploded nuclear bombs was due to that strike. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Standing not far away, Zhong Wei seemed more composed in expression, perhaps because he had some expectations in his heart regarding Wang Zhifan’s methods. So when the miracle truly appeared, he wasn’t particularly surprised, but he was filled with a lot of unanswered questions by comparison.

"Tower Master, what exactly was that supernatural ability just now?"

Watching Wang Zhifan put away the brilliant light saber into his space and make it disappear, Zhong Wei asked him, filled with curiosity, with an underlying tone of excitement that couldn’t be ignored.

"It’s a rather complex attack-type supernatural ability."

Wang Zhifan turned his head towards him and answered simply, not intending to give a detailed explanation.

When he saw Zhong Wei wanting to inquire further, he immediately raised his hand to stop him, saying:

"Come to the Black Tower to find me in a month, and you’ll understand everything then... As for here, please handle it with care. I need to head back and take care of some things."

With that, Wang Zhifan’s figure completely disappeared into the air, as if he had teleported a very long distance away.

By this time, King, not far beside, still had a shocked look on his face. The arrogant expression of disdain he once wore was gone. Shamelessly coming close to Zhong Wei, he inquired about the real identity of the person who just left.

"I don’t know, goodbye."

Zhong Wei couldn’t be bothered to waste words with this potential enemy or rival. He immediately used his supernatural ability to fly away, first reaching the floor to pick up the scattered bodies of the silver-haired old man and the hook-nosed middle-aged man, then hurriedly heading to the base of the Life Line Organization in the city.

As Ya City, gradually regaining senses, erupted into waves of cheers and exclamations, he would integrate the remaining strength of the Life Line Organization, making the organization completely under his control, turning it into a private institute for his research.

After all, those two old bigshots were now dead, and within the Life Line Organization, he had no need to leave and start anew since he was the most powerful.

On the other side, a thousand kilometers away, inside the Black Tower located at the bottom of a massive "glass bowl" in the Shadow Desert, Wang Zhifan himself had already returned to the top floor to continue his cultivation.

He had indeed traveled to Ya City through a dreaming journey and a dream-breaking strike, using that profoundly mysterious slash to nullify the nuclear bomb crisis, albeit at a significant cost.

Because the attack method he used was actually the core saber technique of the Great Dream Saber Scripture: ’Transient as a Dream.’

This advanced power, which can only be mastered by cultivating the Great Dream Saber Scripture to a profound level, was executed by him, which was enough to instantly slash through the true essence of targets over a vast area, degrading them from reality to illusory, thereby making them fundamentally disappear without a trace, more thoroughly annihilated than being physically destroyed.

However, conversely, using such an advanced attack method takes a heavy toll on oneself. Wang Zhifan opted to personally execute it instead of using the Demon Scroll to project the corresponding power because even with his formidable foundation, he couldn’t casually unleash an attack of this level. If he forcibly used the Demon Scroll to increase the consumption, he might not be able to withstand it either.

"In the Demon King’s instance, I used this move in conjunction with Time Stop to slay the Demon King and his minions. This time, I again dealt with numerous nuclear bombs with it. I’ve enhanced my proficiency somewhat, and maybe, with a few more practical attempts, I could gain insight into the saber technique’s realm."

As he practiced the Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill, he contemplated, hoping for the day the Great Dream Saber Scripture would reach new heights to arrive sooner.

That was essentially the main reason he chose to help solve the nuclear bomb crisis in Ya City. Opportunities for him to give his saber techniques full play are few, and only by practicing core powers repeatedly does he have the chance to spark invaluable insight, forging new paths for the main cultivation technique that has become hard to improve by simply piling up time.

Of course, apart from considerations of cultivation, demonstrating his power to the natives was also one of his objectives. Since the instance was a survival scenario, he needed potential enemies to refrain from provoking him casually for a peaceful passage. Establishing a formidable image could significantly reduce various troubles.

"If those guys still want to make trouble after my performance of cutting nuclear bombs, I guess I’ll have to rely on the Black Tower to deal with them and refrain from casually making a move."

He also considered the situation where the natives weren’t deterred by him. If such a situation arose, it would indicate that the instance’s depths were darker than anticipated, and the power he displayed wasn’t enough to intimidate everyone.

By that time, he would adopt a withdrawn stance, hiding in the Black Tower to let this legendary-level tool exert its maximum effect, fleeing with the Black Tower if necessary.

After considering all sorts of situations, he focused on cultivation, and time quickly flew by. Soon, a whole day and night passed, arriving at the morning of the third day of the instance.

At this moment, while eating a Le Tu Fruit to replenish energy, he noticed a bit of commotion outside the Black Tower. Many people were leaving the Black Tower, boarding transportation helicopters that had come here, and departing this barren desert.

It’s not hard to guess that these helicopters were sent by the Life Line Organization, very likely under Zhong Wei’s arrangement, specially here to pick up the psychic powers users stranded in the Black Tower.

The residual power of the nuclear explosion two days ago still lingered, so the movements of those leaving the tower were swift, almost scrambling onto the surrounding helicopters as fast as they could to leave this harsh environment.

Notably, Wang Zhifan also discovered a few players mixed in with the helicopters sent by the Life Line, indicating that many players weren’t willing to stay in his tower any longer, opting to take advantage of the opportunity to escape at the risk of being discovered by enemies.

"Oh boy, these people aren’t scared of being captured by Zhong Wei for research dissections..."

Wang Zhifan admired these players’ boldness but also understood them well. After being tossed around by the Black Tower so many times, even an idiot would see something was wrong here. Choosing to escape was the sane response.

"Zhong Wei didn’t send anyone to contact me, which is somewhat unexpected... I hope he manages things well on the Ya City side, making my place here more peaceful."

Having eaten his fill, watching the helicopters fly away from outside the tower, Wang Zhifan quickly immersed himself back into his cultivation once more.
