Buzz—!!
The instant Ling Chen's fingertip touched the Time-Gap Silver Foil!
An anomaly… suddenly arose!
Ling Chen's fingertip, cold and precise, touched the Time-Gap Silver Foil pendant that emitted faint spatial fluctuations.
Bai Lingdong's body temperature had long since dissipated, leaving only the pendant's ancient, ice-like touch.
There was no ripple in his scarlet pupils, only a… callous indifference… of seizing a trophy.
"Don't…" Tang Buyu's last faint plea successfully caught Ling Chen's attention.
He was the future head of the Tang Family, with a tough life, so he certainly wouldn't die at this moment.
Not only would he not die, but his ability would also evolve into the 【Formless Space】 he displayed to the world in his previous life.
This was a top-tier ability formed by the fusion of three abilities.
However… Ling Chen extended a bony claw and gripped his neck, not even glancing at Tang Buyu's shocked eyes.
He squeezed with one hand, a forceful grip.
Tang Buyu's neck was instantly snapped, his head separated from his body!
"Don't…"
His last plea was like a candle in the wind, instantly extinguished.
The light in his eyes completely dimmed, and his body slumped softly onto the cold ground, nestled against Bai Lingdong's cold corpse, like two withered fallen leaves.
Li Bing's figure had already completely dissipated into the shadows, as if he had never existed.
The future head of the Tang Family, a top-tier powerhouse with a mutated spatial ability, Tang Buyu… was dead.
Ling Chen had no intention of cultivating him; he knew too many secret techniques and such things. The Tang Family was merely a mediocre ability user family; he didn't care for their things.
As for ability users? He needed powerful subordinates, but he needed obedient subordinates. Tang Buyu carried too many burdens and was too difficult to control.
Moreover, the probability of an ability user mutating into a mutant was extremely small, to the point that Ling Chen wasn't even willing to try, because it would almost completely waste his cultivation.
What's more, he had to consider Tang Yinmeng's feelings, and in that little girl's heart, her brother had already become a scumbag.
Buzz—!!
Just as Ling Chen's fingertip was about to exert force and tear off the pendant!
An anomaly… suddenly arose!
It wasn't from the pendant! It wasn't from the dying Tang Buyu! Nor was it from this dead silent ruin!
It was from deep within the earth! From the direction of the distant Li Mountain!
Boom—!!!
A muffled, extreme rumble, as if from the depths of the earth's core! Like the first… roar… of a sleeping giant beast… forcibly awakened! It suddenly… boomed… from a great distance!
The entire Ling Hui ruins! No! The entire Northwest land! Trembled… violently… with this roar!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The already crumbling walls and ceiling of the library's underground air-raid shelter! Instantly… were covered in huge cracks! Large chunks of concrete and rebar crashed down like heavy rain! Dust rose into the sky!
Ling Chen swayed! He instantly flew out of the ruins, his scarlet pupils abruptly constricting! He suddenly looked up! Not at the collapsing cave ceiling! But… he stared… fixedly… in the direction of… Li Mountain!
An… indescribable… coldness! Majesty! Ancientness! Dominance! As if from the dawn of time! A terrifying will… towering above all living beings! Like an invisible tsunami! Instantly… swept across the entire world!
The air became viscous! Heavy! Filled with the… cold aura… of mercury!
"Roar—!!!"
A… majestic dragon's roar… that didn't come from any creature's throat! But… seemed to reverberate directly in the depths of the soul!
That dragon's roar was like a thunderclap from the nine heavens! It suddenly… boomed!
Wherever the dragon's roar passed!
Space… rippled… violently… like water into which a stone had been thrown! Twisting! Shattering!
The earth… was fiercely turned over as if by an invisible giant plow! Tearing open deep… enormous ravines… that seemed bottomless!
The sky… lead-grey clouds spun wildly!
Forming a giant vortex… that covered half the sky! At the center of the vortex… the blood moon… emitted… an eerie… dark-golden light!
An… irresistible… pressure! Like a solid giant mountain! Fiercely… pressed down… upon the souls of… every living being!
"Thud!" "Thud!" "Thud!"
In the battlefield ruins below! The ghouls that were frantically devouring flesh and blood and recovering from their injuries! Were slammed down as if by an invisible giant hammer!
They instantly… slumped to the ground! Trembling! Their scarlet eyes filled with… fear and… submission… from the deepest part of their bloodline!
Zhuang Han… let out a painful whimper! His massive body trembled violently! Unable to move!
In the distance! The remnants of Panshi Fortress, fleeing for their lives! Were instantly paralyzed, as if all their strength had been drained!
The soldiers' eyes widened in terror! Their mouths agape! But they couldn't make any sound!
Only… their bodies trembled… uncontrollably… like… ants… facing… a deity!
"Ugh…"
Chen Xue, lying on the medic's back, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood! The soft silver light instantly extinguished! Her eyes were filled with horror and awe.
Chu Hang, lying on the stretcher, his brows tightly furrowed in a coma, his body began to convulse violently! The backlash of the rules seemed… to have been forcibly… triggered… by this terrifying dragon's might!
Qin Weiguo desperately gripped the wreckage of the armored vehicle, barely managing to steady himself! His face was ashen! His eyes were filled with… bone-deep… horror and… a hint of… desperate… realization!
The Ancestral Dragon… had revived! Faster… and more… terrifying… than expected!
"It's here…" In Ling Chen's scarlet pupils, that indifference was finally replaced by a trace of… extremely grave… apprehension!
The Soul Jade Physique's cold will frantically circulated! Resisting the terrifying dragon's might that felt like a physical entity! He stared fixedly in the direction of Li Mountain!
His fingertip… still firmly… gripped that Time-Gap Silver Foil pendant!
Buzz—!!!
From the direction of Li Mountain! A dark-golden pillar of light! Like a spear of divine punishment tearing through the heavens and earth!
It suddenly shot up into the sky! Piercing fiercely into the center of the dark-golden cloud vortex!
