I Can Transform Into a World-Destroying Colossal Beast-Chapter 175 - 169: Sword Energy Across the Sky
The major portal of the Demon Sea has been developed for over a decade, relying on the ruins across to form a semi-military-managed industrial town around it.
Roads surrounding the town are blocked off, preventing ordinary people from entering or exiting.
Military vehicles cross the streets, and Jiang Hou occasionally sees large transport trucks passing by, alongside some weather-beaten Transcendents carrying large weapons.
Besides Divine Punishment members, some members of authorized Extraordinary Forces can also access the portal.
The portal is located under the mountain peak at the town's center. The mountain wall has been hollowed out to form a gigantic hole one kilometer in diameter, with the purple light curtain portal deep inside the cave.
When Jiang Hou and the others pass through the light curtain, an industrial small town emitting black smoke immediately comes into view.
The small town is not far from the portal and is connected by a smooth pathway.
The black mist of the ruins suppresses signals, light waves channels, and other communication and electronic detection methods, but the machinery transported here can still be used.
Therefore, various mineral metals and Transcendent materials are preliminarily refined here and finally transported outside for processing. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
The industrial pollution is left behind in the ruins anyway, as this is the source of pollution.
Due to the corrosion of the black mist, equipment that used to last for years and decades must be replaced every few months, with high consumption supporting many downstream equipment industries.
"General Ye, over here."
By the roadside of a dusty small town, a young man wearing black leather and carrying a long narrow Miao Blade waved to the three.
After several flashes and approaches, Ye Hong explained, "Major Jiang, this is Ao Ye, with Late-stage Tier Six Peak strength, specializing in stealth tracking."
"Under the void condition, even beings higher than his rank cannot perceive him. This time, it was he who discovered the Evil God deep in the ruins."
"General Ye, isn't a Tier Six Peak outside already very strong." The leather-clad young man rolled his eyes, somewhat dissatisfied.
Though promoted to Major General, the twenty-seven-year-old short-haired young man's lips curled up, "Strength depends on achievements; have you slain a monster or beast of the same rank?"
"This... no." Ao Ye immediately deflated.
His ability to converge aura and merge into space is very strange, but his direct combat power is generally standard Tier Six Peak.
At this point, Ye Hong's expression grew serious, "Alright, let's stop joking; let's move forward."
Ao Ye nodded, looking at Jiang Hou, "Major Jiang, later I'll use the Void Shifting Technique to transport you over. Remember not to unleash your power in resistance."
Bang!
An invisible domain bursting with sharp aura erupted from Ye Hong, transforming into a hundred-meter-long white sword beam, sweeping up Zong Zheng Nan Mo and soaring into the sky.
The invisibly dispersed power tore through the black mist, forming a long path in the air spanning several kilometers that lingered.
"So cool; if my awakened ability were this powerful, it would be fantastic." Watching the scene, Ao Ye was full of envy.
Even Jiang Hou felt a tinge of envy; sword flight, soaring through the sky and earth, who wouldn't want it.
Although he could borrow Domain Power in his Giant Beast form to fly, compared to Ye Hong, the flight of a Purgatory Giant Ape was merely slowly floating.
Moreover, the airborne acclimatization is poor without ground contact to passively regain Burning World Flame Power, thus the Purgatory Giant Ape is better suited for terrestrial warfare.
Apart from the domain ripple, Jiang Hou sensed a different energy fluctuation from the sword energy, an exclusive Power of the Ninth Epoch distinct from Divine Elemental Power.
"Let's also go."
With that, Ao Ye silently vanished, resembling a blurred shadow flickering without a trace, moving at supersonic speed yet absent the sonic boom roar.
Relative to Yidu, the number of Transcendents at the Demon Sea Branch was astonishing.
Bang!
Black Demonic Energy spewed in all directions, Jiang Hou entered a slaughtering state enveloped in black and white light, his long hair dancing wildly, transforming into a black shadow shooting out rapidly.
The pure physical strength at Tier Five Peak combined with Tier Five Demon Essence amplification, Divine Weapon sharpness tore through air, his speed faster than most Tier Six Powerhouses.
Sonic booms rumbled, forming a white airwave behind Jiang Hou while lifting smoke and dust, vanishing in the blink of an eye beyond the earth.
Around the portal of the Demon Sea, after more than a decade of sweeping, the vicinity had almost no monsters visible, forcing Transcendents to venture deeper into the ruins for gains.
This depth doesn't spread outward, but concentrates toward areas with higher pollution energy in some direction of the ruins.
During the first several hundred kilometers, Jiang Hou occasionally brushed past some Tier Four and Five Transcendents, gradually leading to sparser human presence as the surrounding black mist grew denser.
Here, visibility compressed to within several hundred meters, even for Jiang Hou and others, they couldn't see far.
Ye Hong guided from above while two shadows pursued on land, an hour after brisk running the white sword light abruptly turned, flying toward another direction.
At this time, the pervasive thick mist began to thin, restoring clear visibility.
Soon some gray decayed buildings appeared in Jiang Hou's view.
"We've arrived!" The white sword energy from the sky descended, disbanding and revealing Ye Hong and Zong Zheng Nan Mo.
Even though the relic entrance was already locked down, Zong Zheng Nan Mo's unique ability might be useful for exploring the ruins later, so he joined in.
Far ahead Jiang Ruochan stood atop a hundred-meter-high broken wall, her black hair flying, incredibly handsome.
Ahead, a figure carrying white wings, with a bird head and human body stood fierce, surrounded by horrific space-distorting aura, like a Demon Fiend.
The Celestial Demonized Lei Chengxuan discharged scalding white flame from his mouth, enveloping forward.
The white flame emitted a chilling corrosive aura, causing the space ahead to twist continuously under prolonged corrosion, golden streaks dissipating.
Jiang Ruochan turned, looking at Jiang Hou and Ye Hong billowing dust coming toward them.
"You arrived just in time; the portal's restriction is about to break. By then, Ao Ye and Zong Zheng Nan Mo, you'll wait outside while we go in."
"Understood, boss." Ao Ye nodded.
His title was slightly odd, calling Jiang Ruochan, who was a few years younger than him, boss.
Zong Zheng Nan Mo chuckled, "Brother Ye, I'll rely on you later." In such places, even a high-rank monster emerging could cost his life.
The leather-clad young man patted Zong Zheng Nan Mo on the shoulder, "Don't worry, we're all on the same side, brother will protect you."
Compared to the somewhat unfamiliar Jiang Hou, Zong Zheng Nan Mo who had been here for several days was more familiar with the group.
While they conversed Jiang Hou, his black hair fluttering, looked into the distance where invisible materials and untouchable spaces under the white flame's scorching emerged distinctly, like a transparent mirror.
Crack, crack!!
Transparent cracks appeared in space, then silently shattered, forming a several hundred-meter hollow with a black towering city wall appearing.
In that instant, everyone felt a thick, desolate aura enveloping their senses.
Bang!
Jiang Hou's consciousness shook, a ferocious and savage roar reverberated in the depths of his soul, the Giant Beast bloodline instantly boiled, issuing an unconscious bellow.
Roar!
The air detonated, endless dark-red flame mixed magma erupted, amidst rolling airwaves, the eighty-meter-high black Giant Ape emerged ablaze.
"Whoa."
With Ao Ye encircled in turquoise gale, he still was pushed continually backward by the explosive hot airwaves, his eyes widening.
Even though aware Jiang Hou's Giant Beast form crossed into Tier Seven, gazing up at the massive destructive ape from Molten Flame Hell, he was still stunned speechless by its overwhelming aura.
Hiss! Ao Ye drew in a breath, feeling his scalp vaguely tingling.
Even Ye Hong enclosed in sword energy, and the demon-like Lei Chengxuan, looking at the suddenly transformed Purgatory Giant Ape, displayed heaviness in their eyes.
The Purgatory Giant Ape emitted domain strength only at Early-tier Seven, yet they sensed intense danger from it.
Very strong, frighteningly strong!
"This is the combined power of the Giant Beast Era and the Divine Weapon Era!" Ye Hong marveled.
As the group marveled at Jiang Hou's Giant Beast form transformation, upon morphing into Giant Beast form, Jiang Hou felt the erratic bloodline aura intensifying.
Roar! The Purgatory Giant Ape roared, its colossal body thunderously moving, the earth tremored beneath, carrying rolling hot airwaves toward the black city wall.
Where it passed magma churned, flames incinerated everything.
Simultaneously, a hundred and fifty-meter-long black giant column appeared on the ape's shoulder, dark-red magma spreading over the Demon Suppression Pillar, igniting fiercely.
