425: Immortal, kill more times

When the hydrogen inside the gas sphere finally reached the critical point for fusion, time seemed to stand still for that instant.

The particles inside the sphere began colliding with each other at a frantic pace, each impact releasing immense energy.

This energy accumulated to an unimaginable degree in an extremely short time, like a star compressed to its limit, ready to tear everything apart at any moment.

At that very instant, a powerful burst of energy erupted, like the first ray of light at the dawn of the universe.

The entire gas sphere expanded in an instant, releasing dazzling light, as if to illuminate the entire world.

The light was so intense that everything around it lost its color, leaving only a vast expanse of white.

As the energy was released, an artificial sun slowly rose above the horizon, its light growing brighter and more blinding.

The surrounding air was instantly ignited by the high temperature, forming tongues of flame that spread outwards.

The entire sky was dyed a fiery red, like hell itself.

At the same time, the sound vibrations produced by the explosion also exceeded the limit of human endurance.

The thunderous boom rolled in, making eardrums ache.

It transformed into a terrifying shockwave that spread in all directions, leaving devastation and ruin in its wake, everything appearing so fragile and powerless under its force.

However, even amidst this terrifying explosion, Tian Ming remained calm and composed.

He slightly raised his hand, forming an invisible wall within his control range.

This wall formed an indestructible barrier, blocking the incoming shockwave and high-temperature flames.

The explosion gradually subsided after several seconds, but the terrifying power still left people with lingering fear.

The entire area was destroyed beyond recognition, as if it had experienced a catastrophic disaster.

Jiang Chen's figure had long disappeared; a hand-made hydrogen bomb was indeed terrifying.

But Jiang Chen was not dead; he was blasted into a particle state, slowly re-condensing.

"Boss, we detected a nuclear explosion, 800 kilometers away.

Was it you?" Meng Xian's voice reached Tian Ming's mind via Number Three.

"Yes, it was me!

Is the base alright?

The explosion was on the surface, so the shockwave shouldn't have reached that far, right?" Tian Ming said.

"The seismic wave is here, Boss, what are you doing?"

"Jiang Chen said he wanted me to live alone until old age and kill all of you, so I made him a nuclear bomb to give him a taste," Tian Ming said indifferently.

Meng Xian was silent for a few seconds on the other end, clearly shocked by Tian Ming's words.

"Boss, are you alright?

Do you need our support?

Didn't you say Jiang Chen also has an immortal body?" Meng Xian asked with concern.

"That's right.

Jiang Chen isn't dead yet; he should be re-condensing his body now.

Just do your own thing.

I might have to blow him up a few more times.

I want to see how many times his immortal body can endure," Tian Ming said.

"Okay, Boss, don't worry.

We'll guard the base," Meng Xian replied.

After hanging up the call with Meng Xian, Tian Ming refocused his attention on Jiang Chen.

The aftereffects of the explosion still lingered, the ground looking as if it had been struck by a meteorite, forming a massive crater.

Tian Ming's mind stirred, and a vibration scattered all the surrounding smoke and dust, but the black mist in front of him was beyond Tian Ming's control.

This was Jiang Chen's particles reorganizing.

The black mist slowly writhed, like a giant black cocoon incubating some terrifying creature.

Tian Ming knew that Jiang Chen was using his immortal body to re-condense his form.

Although this process was slow, and after rebirth, the body would have a period of weakness, he decided to wait and watch the black mist slowly condense.

As time passed, the black mist gradually became clearly visible, with a vague figure appearing and disappearing within it.

This was Jiang Chen, but after his rebirth, the golden light on Jiang Chen's armor had dimmed considerably.

Tian Ming stood by, quietly observing the process.

The black mist gradually dissipated, and Jiang Chen's figure became clearer.

An invisible barrier began to appear again.

As soon as Jiang Chen regained consciousness, Tian Ming began to repeat his trick; he just wanted to see if an immortal body could be played to death.

"Lu Tianming, you are going too far."

"I'm not bullying a human!" Tian Ming said, and the second nuclear fusion explosion occurred.

This time the scale was much smaller, but it was enough to scatter Jiang Chen's body back into a particle state.

Tian Ming, who also possessed an immortal body, naturally understood that Jiang Chen in particle state had no consciousness, meaning all particles would only reassemble and revive at the location where they disappeared.

With this characteristic, as long as Tian Ming guarded this spot, he could infinitely 'corpse-guard'.

This reassembly took a few minutes longer than the last time.

It seemed that the particles forming Jiang Chen had expended a lot of energy.

Jiang Chen reappeared, the golden light on his body even dimmer, and Tian Ming again subjected him to another nuclear explosion.

This time, Jiang Chen returned to a particulate state before he even regained consciousness.

Each time he returned to a particulate state, the particles on his body needed to expend a large amount of energy for reassembly.

Again and again, the speed of particle aggregation became slower and slower.

By the time of the tenth nuclear explosion, more than ten days had passed.

Jiang Chen's re-condensed body was extremely weak, and this condensation took a day and a half.

The Jiang Chen who reassembled this time had golden pupils that seemed covered in a layer of white mist.

Tian Ming wanted to bomb him one more time, but Jiang Chen finally relented and quickly stopped him: "No, no more!"

"Do you still hate me?" Tian Ming asked with a smile.

"You ruined the future of my corpse race.

Do you believe me if I say I don't hate you?" Although Jiang Chen's aura was weak, his tone still carried a firm stubbornness.

"What you said makes some sense, I certainly don't believe it.

Since you hate me so much, then I'm sorry, I can't let you live," Tian Ming said with a faint smile, raising his hand again, as if to trigger another nuclear explosion.

"Wait!" Jiang Chen suddenly shouted.

Tian Ming lowered his palm and asked, "Wait?

Wait for what?

For you to go to my base and kill people?"

"I know you won't believe me, but I really don't want to experience that kind of suffering worse than death again.

I want to talk to you and see if we can find a way to solve the problem."

Tian Ming frowned, and after a brief thought, said, "Above golden pupils, you are a threat to me, and you also have an immortal body, so I don't want to talk.

Goodbye!"

As soon as Tian Ming finished speaking, he triggered another nuclear explosion, directly scattering Jiang Chen into a particle state.

After the attack, Tian Ming left his Number One clone to guard the spot and returned to the base to help with construction.

He would come back to blast Jiang Chen apart again once he was about to reassemble.

With Jiang Chen dead, there would be no more Corpse King on Blue Star; if Jiang Chen could be prevented from reassembling and reviving, it would be equivalent to killing him.
