Chapter 134 – Falling into the Dark Abyss

And the instant Ren Xiaoying turned her head to look, Su Lifeng had already pushed off with his foot and charged forward madly once more. The injuries on the left half of his body were severe, but in this short span, he had actually erupted again!

Ren Xiaoying’s reaction speed was not slow either. Hearing the sound, she knew Su Lifeng wanted to seize the chance to attack again, and she immediately turned back to meet him. Her speed was very fast, and for some unknown reason, the chunks of cement around her all shattered the instant she arrived.

“So cunning. Looks like I’ll have to finish you off this time,” Ren Xiaoying said, her eyes cold and without a trace of laughter.

But just as she was about to rush in front of Su Lifeng, Su Lifeng suddenly let out a low roar.

His left arm lifted, and the Exoskeleton emerged!

The reason Su Lifeng had not used it when he was struck earlier was for this moment!

Bang!

The two collided. Around Ren Xiaoying, many Black Threads that had originally been invisible suddenly appeared, now transformed into black ash. These Black Threads had already shriveled and fell to the ground one after another. Her hand also turned gray, as if it had lost its vitality in an instant. Yet this attack, powerful enough to instantly kill an E-class Xenospecies, had already stopped by the time it spread to her fair wrist.

On the other side, Su Lifeng also gave a muffled groan and spat out a mouthful of blood. The Exoskeleton on his left arm turned to flying ash in an instant. But this block won him the chance to pass through. Su Lifeng, already prepared, not only did not pause, but instead shook his Bone Wings, leaned his body forward, and accelerated past.

All of this had been calculated from the moment Ren Xiaoying appeared. Now he executed it in one smooth flow. A little faster, a little slower, and it would all result in failure. And he could not afford to fail!

The intense pain throughout his entire body meant nothing. In Su Lifeng’s eyes, there was only that injured Wisdom Species.

“Eh?” Ren Xiaoying watched Su Lifeng sweep past her side, but it was already too late to stop him. Although the instant she turned, she would be able to catch up to Su Lifeng again, this very instant was enough to change everything.

What Su Lifeng wanted was this brief moment of less than one second.

“Pff!”

He passed directly through the unstable energy field. As his own blood sprayed out, he had already pounced in front of this Wisdom Species. His Bone Wings rose and stabbed in violently.

“No!” The Wisdom Species’s eyes were filled with disbelief and unwillingness. She had never expected this Mutant to be this calm, this desperate, this tyrannical! If even one of those three qualities had been missing, Su Lifeng could not possibly have succeeded!

“It… was only a little more… my… glory…” As the Wisdom Species spoke, her eyes had already lost focus. The Black Threads she had inserted into the ground fissure immediately began falling away, while a thread-like body that seemed silver drilled out from within her and entered Su Lifeng’s body. This was the same as what he had seen back when he absorbed the Wisdom Species on the island. However, what Ye Nannan later voluntarily gave him had been black-red.

Su Lifeng naturally would not think about this now… As the Wisdom Species died and the Black Threads fell away, the Spatial Gate that had already begun trembling immediately produced even stronger tremors.

“Roar!”

From the other dark World beneath the surface, another roar immediately came.

Some survivors who had already fled far away heard this sound, and their legs instantly went weak. It was not because they did not want to flee even farther as soon as possible, but because this sound was simply too terrifying!

“What… what kind of monster is that…” Someone looked at the buildings still collapsing in the distance and spoke in utter terror.

Abruptly, the earth began trembling again, and much more violently than before.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

Large numbers of glass windows shattered in an instant, and buildings shook violently. The crowds who had thought they had already escaped to a safe area once again erupted into waves of screams.

This feeling that the ground beneath one’s feet could be torn open at any moment was truly the irresistible might of nature!

Even Ningnan felt this kind of tremor!

“Is it an earthquake?” Su Lian looked at the water glass shaking constantly beside her hand and said with an ugly expression.

“Something really did happen in Shencheng.”

On the streets of Ningnan, Lv Zifeng felt the tremors continuously coming from beneath his feet, then glanced at the message he had received and spoke with a very complicated expression.

Those who had honestly stayed inside their homes once again came out onto the streets. Looking up at the increasingly gloomy sky above them, everyone’s heart was also covered by a layer of dark cloud.

What exactly had happened!

“Roar!”

As the edge of the Spatial Gate began shaking again, that Giant Hand immediately fell away. It spread its fingers and tried to seize the surface once more, but under the fluctuations of the Protective Layer, it still could not gain the upper hand.

However, in the next moment, an eye suddenly appeared in the dark World beneath Su Lifeng.

It was an extremely cold eye, like it was looking at ants, yet within it was filled with blazing rage at having been bitten by an ant.

“Bang!”

Five bone-like fingers suddenly appeared and grabbed toward Su Lifeng.

Su Lifeng felt every hair on his body abruptly stand on end. A powerful sense of life-and-death crisis nearly made his body freeze completely.

He could not die!

The edge of the Spatial Gate kept tearing and pulling, and at this moment, Ren Xiaoying also rushed over.

“If I kill you, I still have a chance,” Ren Xiaoying said through gritted teeth.

“Bang!”

Just then, another muffled sound came. The high-rises that had not yet completely collapsed suffered another round of shattering glass and began breaking apart one after another.

“Bombs?” Su Lifeng wrapped himself with his first pair of Bone Wings, but he still felt as if his entire body had been hit by a truck. Even his internal organs felt the force of the impact.

The bomb landed at the edge of the ground collapse, and the shockwave also affected the Giant Hand and Ren Xiaoying. However, because of the continuous “earthquakes,” and because helicopters could not approach, the bombs dropped by Shencheng’s army were not aimed completely at the center of the collapse.

Enduring the pain, Su Lifeng seized the chance to dodge to one side. Just as he was about to escape, Ren Xiaoying also reacted and chased after him once more. “Why are you still thinking of leaving after coming here? This body of yours would be perfect to become my companion.”

Hearing Ren Xiaoying’s laughter arrive behind him in the blink of an eye, Su Lifeng suddenly turned, and his Bone Wings stabbed upward.

“Useless.” Ren Xiaoying’s expression clearly seemed somewhat emotionally out of control, but she still used those invisible Black Threads to block Su Lifeng’s attack.

Immediately afterward, Su Lifeng felt a burst of stabbing pain suddenly come from all over his body. He could not see the attack, but he had already been pierced!

A powerful numbness immediately spread through him. At this moment, another shell exploded.

From seeing the firelight to the arrival of the shockwave, there was only an instant. Su Lifeng gritted his teeth, but instead of protecting himself, he drew the military spike with his backhand.

“Boom!”

As his body was struck by the impact and involuntarily lost balance, Su Lifeng let out a great roar and stabbed the military spike toward Ren Xiaoying.

“Roar!”

Under the second impact, that Giant Hand finally could no longer withstand the rejection of the Protective Layer. Amid a roar of helplessness and fury, it withdrew.

Hearing this sound, Ren Xiaoying clearly lost focus for a moment. And by the time she reacted, Su Lifeng had already stabbed the military spike into her shoulder.

“Ah!”

Su Lifeng roared. Borrowing the full strength he had used in this stab, he and Ren Xiaoying fell together toward that boundless dark abyss!
