82: Chapter 82 The Fall of a God! Heat the oil in the wok, and the Shennong Cauldron refines the six wings!
Accompanied by a deafening sonic boom cloud exploding over the sea, the crimson Gan Qi giant axe, carrying the force of ten thousand tons of thunder, had already descended!
In mid-air, the angel, held upside down, finally broke free from its state of "logical crash" in this narrow gap between life and death. Looking at the axe blade drawing closer in its field of vision, shame and despair instantly ignited its core.
It was a God! A high-dimensional Dominator! How could it be held in someone's hand and executed like a plague-ridden chicken waiting for slaughter?
"Hum——!!!"
Just one-thousandth of a second before the axe blade reached it, the hole in the angel's chest where the rusty nail had been pulled out suddenly began to collapse violently.
The surrounding light, air, and even space itself surged frantically toward the black hole. It no longer tried to escape; since it could not physically destroy these bugs, it would detonate the "Chaos Core" within its body and perish together with them on the level of rules!
This was equivalent to detonating a conceptual-level dirty bomb at point-blank range.
"Want to self-destruct?"
Zhao Tiezhu felt the violent tremors coming from his hand, but instead of letting go, he curled his lips into a cold sneer.
"Playing with your life in front of me? You aren't worthy! For me... choke it back!!!"
The originally descending xingtian dharma image puffed out its chest, which was as broad as a mountain, as if inhaling the righteous energy of heaven and earth. In an instant, a crimson wave of Qi surged along the massive hand gripping the angel's ankle, violently pouring into the angel's body!
Skill [Fierce Ambition Remains Constant] second-stage effect—Forced Suppression!
The conceptual-level suppression took effect.
What is Xingtian? It is the one who would still swing an axe even after losing its head, the ultimate manifestation of the Dragon Summer battle soul. This will of "not even fearing death" naturally suppresses all means derived from "fear" on the level of rules. Self-destruction is often the final counterattack of the desperate, and as long as you feel despair, your Aura is already cut short by half.
The crimson Battle Intent, like molten iron, violently rushed into the angel's precise energy circuits, dispersing the black Death Qi it had gathered. The core, which had been rapidly collapsing and preparing to explode, was forcibly blocked by this "unreasonable" force.
It was like a newly inflated balloon whose valve had been ruthlessly pinched shut by someone.
On the angel's faceless visage, every muscle in its body was trembling, revealing a despair of "this is not scientific."
The energy circuits within its body had been severed.
The self-destruction had been interrupted.
And the Gan Qi giant axe, capable of splitting heaven and earth, had now descended.
There was no flashy Sword Qi, no overwhelming special effects.
It was just fast.
It was just ruthless.
It was just overwhelming force.
"Puff——Chih!"
An extremely dull tearing sound.
It was like a sharp kitchen knife slicing through a piece of long-frozen meat, or like scissors cutting through a bolt of thick brocade.
The hundred-meter-tall Six-Winged Angel, without even having time to let out a scream, was neatly split in two right at the waist.
Before the black divine blood could spray out, the bronze square shield in Xingtian's left hand had been waiting for a long time.
"Get out of here!"
The shield, like a giant flyswatter, carrying overwhelming force, slammed fiercely onto the two severed halves of the body.
"Boom——!!!"
The surface of the Atlantic Ocean exploded instantly.
The two halves of the corpse, like two meteors, crashed into the deep sea with long black tails of flame.
Huge waves surged to the sky, and columns of water shot up a thousand meters high.
The originally azure seawater, the moment it touched the corpse, was rapidly dyed into a nauseating ink-black color.
Did they win?
The soldiers on the front line had not yet had time to cheer when the shrill alarm sounded again.
"Warning! High-intensity pollution source detected spreading!"
"The target corpse is undergoing secondary mutation! Seawater toxicity index is ten thousand times over the limit! Ocean currents are carrying the pollution across the globe!"
On the screen, the ink-black sea area was spreading at an alarming speed. Dense patches of dead fish floated on the surface, and even the seawater itself began to boil, bubble, and grow eerie tumors.
Though the God is dead, its Divine Might remains.
The corpse of such a high-dimensional creature is itself the greatest source of radiation, the embodiment of chaotic rules. If not dealt with, this sea area will be a forbidden zone for life for the next thousand years, and it may even poison the entire Blue Planet ecosystem through the water cycle.
On the isolated island.
The doctor, who had been filled with despair upon seeing the angel defeated and had collapsed to the ground, now seemed to experience a final burst of energy; he scrambled up from the ground and let out a hysterical, maniacal laugh.
"Hahahaha! Idiots! A bunch of idiots!"
"Do you think it's over just because you killed it? It is a God! The physical body of a God is a carrier of rules! By shattering the carrier, you have just dumped nuclear waste into your own well!"
"Dragon Summer won the battle, but lost the living space! This level of pollution cannot be purified even by your national fortune! Everyone will die together! Everyone will rot in this quagmire together!"
Inside the command hall.
The atmosphere was not particularly heavy.
Everyone looked at Su Yun.
This situation had actually exceeded their expectations; although the mess after killing it was harder to clean up than when it was alive, the hardest moment had already passed.
And at this moment.
Su Yun's expression was normal; there was not the slightest panic, nor could even a hint of surprise be seen.
He just raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the nervous Minister Liu.
"Minister Liu, back in our hometown, if a wild boar breaks into the fields and is killed, how do we usually handle it?"
Liu Nong was stunned and subconsciously replied: "Well... you definitely have to call the whole village, fire up the pot, boil water, and distribute the meat."
"That's right."
Su Yun snapped his fingers, stood up, and cast his gaze toward the distant Atlantic Ocean.
"Westerners call this biochemical pollution, call it indescribable terror."
"But in the dictionary of us Dragon Summer people, as long as it has a physical form, it is divided into only two types: edible, and medicinal."
"Such a big lump of high-energy aggregate, what a waste to throw it into the sea."
Su Yun took a deep breath and slowly spread his arms.
In his mind, the bronze medicine furnace icon, which had been in a state of "slow simmering," suddenly shone brightly.
The talent [Territory is Domain] activated once again.
This time, it was no longer the gentleness of saving the world, but the dominance of Shennong tasting the hundred herbs, discerning all things, and refining heaven and earth.
"System, upgrade skill dimension."
"[Shennong Medical Immortal · Green Bag Heaven and Earth] switch form——"
"[Shennong · Creation of Heaven and Earth]!"
...
Above the front line.
The raging wind that had been wreaking havoc suddenly ceased.
There were no dark clouds pressing down or thunderous might.
There was only a scent.
A... strange fragrance, extremely pleasant, mellow, and making one's mouth water just by smelling it, appeared out of thin air.
Immediately after.
A giant cauldron manifested in the firmament above.
It was too big.
So big that half of the Atlantic Ocean was shrouded under its shadow.
It was no longer the bronze medicine furnace that had previously hovered over the capital; at this moment, it had three legs and two ears, thick and ancient, and its body was engraved with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, plants, trees, birds, and beasts.
This was not just a furnace.
This was the ultimate understanding of "food" and "medicine" in Chinese civilization for thousands of years.
The cauldron's mouth faced downward, resembling a heavenly abyss.
"Fire up the pot."
Su Yun's voice echoed between heaven and earth.
"Boom——!!!"
Inside the giant cauldron, a fire ignited.
This was no ordinary fire; it was the "firewood" gathered from the daily lives of 1.4 billion people, the embodiment of burning national fortune.
Immediately after, a suction force so terrifying that it could not be explained by physics erupted from the cauldron's mouth.
On the sea surface, the black divine blood and the corpse remains that had been frantically spreading and corroding everything seemed to have suddenly encountered their natural enemy.
They were screaming.
This was a wail on the level of rules.
But in the face of the overbearing rule that "everything can be used as medicine," protests were invalid.
Whoosh——
The black seawater rolled backward and upward, forming a huge black water tornado that shot straight into the sky and plunged headlong into the sky-covering giant cauldron.
Together with the two twitching remnants of the angel's body, along with those strange eyeballs and black feathers, everything was sucked in all at once.
"What... what is this doing?"
On the isolated island, the doctor's smile froze.
He watched helplessly as this divine corpse, which he worshipped, was thrown into this pot with a strong Eastern style, just like a piece of kitchen scraps.
"No... impossible... how can chaotic rules be contained by a vessel?"
