Chapter 157: Chapter 92: Demon Beast Tide, Dongfang Yao Goes All Out
Chen Yu glanced at the reading on his radiation-proof bracelet. The radiation here was higher than in other places.
"Discovering the ruins of a civilization... this counts as a meritorious service, right?" An Ran said.
"Definitely. This is the first ruined city of a civilization we’ve found. It proves this world once had a powerful civilization of its own," a team member said.
"Brother Yu, should we go inside the ruined city and take a look?" An Ran asked, looking at Chen Yu.
The others also looked at him.
Chen Yu was about to nod, but suddenly, the ground began to shake.
"An earthquake?!"
A team member exclaimed in surprise.
"What’s that!"
Another team member pointed deep into the ruined city, where thick dust and smoke were rising into the sky as countless buildings were destroyed.
An endless black shadow appeared.
"An earthquake, my ass! This is a beast tide!"
One of the team members cried out, his face full of terror.
The expressions on Chen Yu and the others’ faces grew grim. They gazed into the distance; the boundless black shadow was, in fact, an army of beasts composed of countless Demon Beasts.
Wherever it passed, all buildings were utterly destroyed.
It was moving fast, and the violent tremors it caused felt as if the sky were falling and the earth were splitting apart.
"You all fall back first!" Chen Yu ordered decisively. The four Abyssal Administration Bureau members exchanged a look, their eyes suddenly filled with unwavering determination. "No, we fight and fall together! If something happens to you, we won’t survive either."
One of the burly team members declared.
He released his Qi, fully prepared for battle!
"Sir, we are not cowards who fear death!" another team member said, releasing his Qi as a powerful aura swept out from him.
"We advance and retreat as one! That’s a direct order from our superiors!" yet another member shouted, unleashing his Qi!
Chen Yu glanced at the four team members and said no more.
They had made their position clear; there was no need for further words.
He gave a silent nod.
"VMMMM—!"
Dongfang Yao’s figure shot into the air, a powerful aura erupting from her. At the same time, An Ran also activated her ability, arcs of electricity crackling around her as terrifying lightning gathered.
"Brother Yu, are you confident we can handle this?" An Ran asked, her expression grave as she stared at the vast beast army.
"If we can’t stop them, we run," Chen Yu said.
The moment he finished speaking, ghastly white flames appeared in his eyes. He looked at the beast army, a fierce glint filling his gaze.
VMM~
In an instant, the ghastly white flames spread over his entire body.
Huh?
The others were startled by this sight.
Then, Chen Yu’s body began to rapidly expand, as if being inflated with air.
In a flash, he reached a staggering height of one hundred meters.
The ghastly white flames blazed, and a powerful aura swept out, creating an intense, suffocating pressure.
The others instinctively took a few steps back.
From within the ghastly white flames, identical arms extended one by one.
Senluo’s Fury, activated!
"What is this ability!"
"Why have we never seen Brother Yu use this before?!"
An Ran was completely horrified.
Judging by the ghastly white flames burning around Chen Yu and his eight arms, this was definitely not some simple body-enlarging ability.
As his body grew, his aura became even more terrifying.
They could clearly feel that his power had surged to an astonishing level.
Dongfang Yao’s pupils contracted. Although she said nothing, the shock in her eyes was impossible to hide.
This was an ability she had never seen before!
The members of the Abyssal Administration Bureau were even more dumbfounded.
Even though they had retreated, the pressure from Chen Yu’s aura felt like a massive mountain pressing down on them.
It was intensely suffocating!
"Just worry about yourselves," Chen Yu’s voice boomed like rolling thunder.
The others nodded dazedly.
They still hadn’t recovered from the shock of Chen Yu’s transformation.
SWOOSH! Chen Yu’s legs erupted with astonishing power. His hundred-meter-tall body shot into the sky, breaking through the air to reach an altitude of ten thousand meters.
Like a missile soaring into the heavens!
"BOOM!!!"
In the next instant, the hundred-meter-tall Chen Yu, wreathed in ghastly white flames, plummeted down like a meteor, smashing into the center of the beast tide.
A monstrous shockwave swept out like a tsunami.
Thousands upon thousands of beasts were blasted into the air.
The surrounding buildings were torn apart like paper, and swaths of Demon Beasts were killed by the impact, clearing a large open area.
"It seems... we might actually be able to handle this."
A team member said in a daze.
"Move out!" Dongfang Yao ordered, her figure flashing and disappearing.
An Ran followed close behind, charging toward the beast tide.
"Charge!!!"
The four team members also gave it their all, their Qi erupting as they swiftly charged into the beast tide.
Buoyed by the success of the initial strike, their confidence soared!
...
"ROAR!!!"
Roars shook the heavens and the earth. Faced with the hundred-meter-tall Chen Yu, the remaining Demon Beasts showed no fear, charging at him from all directions.
"BOOM—!!"
His eight arms danced, sending out powerful waves of Qi. Before the beasts could even get close, they were torn to shreds.
A shower of blood filled the air, and the pungent stench of gore blanketed the ruined city.
Wave after wave of Demon Beasts threw themselves at Chen Yu.
Burning his qi and blood, Chen Yu’s body expanded once more, growing to a height of five hundred meters.
His eight identical Senluo arms swung, and the high-pressure shockwaves generated by sheer physical force alone swept away huge swaths of Demon Beasts.
The larger his form, the stronger the amplification.
At five hundred meters tall, Chen Yu was like a giant, crushing everything in his path with devastating ease.
The ground cracked, and more than half the city was destroyed in an instant.
On the other side, Dongfang Yao and the others were not slow in their actions either.
Although they were not as ferociously powerful as Chen Yu, they still dealt a massive blow to the beast horde.
Countless Demon Beasts were sent flying and slain.
The combination of their various abilities made it nearly impossible for the Demon Beasts to get close.
An Ran unleashed shockwaves, coordinating with the four Abyssal Administration Bureau members to jointly slay the Demon Beasts on the periphery, which was also remarkably effective.
