Monsters Die When Killed

A few minutes later, Su Zhou had everything he wanted.

'Seven hundred and forty kilometers from the Two Realms Teleportation Gate? It's only been a few days, and they've already run this far and established a hidden base... Compared to these reckless Madmen, the European Union is exploring way too slowly.'

Hovering high in the air, Su Zhou carried over a dozen Alloy Electromagnetic Cannon Projectiles as he gazed at the information displayed on the terminal in his hand. Then he flew higher and higher, soaring past the clouds and into the Demon Realm's stratosphere.

Unlike the Beast God Realm, the Demon Realm was a planet, complete with a starry sky. European researchers believed the Demon Realm might even exist within the same cosmos as Earth, making the Two Realms Teleportation Gate nothing more than a natural Space-Time Passage.

But that wasn't on Su Zhou's mind right now. He was already constructing a topographical map of the surrounding area and the Spirit Summoning Association's camp in his head.

Then, all over his body, Gale Seeds shimmering with vibrant Spiritual Light began to emanate from him.

These Gale Seeds, modified by Su Zhou, possessed wind power far exceeding the original version. At full blast, their propulsion was enough to accelerate his massive, three-thousand-ton-plus True Body to supersonic speeds. Even a conventional launch vehicle of the same size couldn't generate that much thrust.

Even when dispersed, just a few Gale Seeds could combine to form a Dragon Breath Cannon, firing a high-intensity Breath capable of melting steel and sundering iron.

Now, over five hundred Gale Seeds detached from Su Zhou's body like drifting scales. Following paths of Spiritual Light, they formed a framework of Spiritual Power composed of ethereal lines. Su Zhou continued to pour his own Spiritual Power into it, gradually shaping it into a massive "cannon barrel."

By now, his altitude had surpassed 20,000 meters, and he was still rising.

'Yes, he had indeed promised the Harmony Bureau he wouldn't go anywhere... but they never said he couldn't fly a bit higher, now did they?'

Above the drifting clouds, the navy-blue Celestial Vault overhead had grown thin. From the ground, Su Zhou's cyan-purple Spiritual Light was visible as a brilliant star. Rafael, still on the surface, understood Su Zhou's intention. 'That guy, Su Zhou... is he really planning to attack from such a great distance?!'

'That's over seven hundred kilometers!'

But at the end of the day, while over seven hundred kilometers was an immense distance for an ordinary person, it was a different story for Su Zhou. Having ascended tens of thousands of meters, where he could effortlessly accelerate any projectile to ten times the speed of sound, it was a distance the projectile could cross in mere minutes.

At this very moment, Thunder Light crackled before Su Zhou. Dazzling magnetic arcs flickered along the Spiritual Power rails paved by the Gale Seeds, extending through the atmosphere to form a gigantic "cannon barrel" nearly a hundred meters long.

With a casual wave, Su Zhou loaded a projectile into the Electromagnetic Cannon, which was formed entirely from Spiritual Power. 'I should thank the Zhengguo Government for letting me tour and personally test their various high-end weapons. Otherwise, it would have taken me some time to design a structure like this on my own.'

Then, with the hum of electric current, the Spiritual Power Electromagnetic Cannon began to activate.

The Gale Seeds began to emit a cyan-blue glow as they charged, one by one. Perilous Thunder Light coiled around it like a Coiling Dragon on a Jade Pillar, as a terrifying electromagnetic force rapidly swirled and converged within, generating a forward propulsive force.

"Times have changed, you madmen of the Spirit Summoning Association!" With a great laugh, Su Zhou "pressed" the firing key.

WHIRRR—WHIRRR—BOOM!

High in the sky, a gale whipped up from the intense heat. The next instant, the alloy projectile shot through a dozen-plus layers of electromagnetic accelerator rings composed of several hundred Gale Seeds, instantly accelerating to a speed the human eye could not possibly track.

It broke the sound barrier, becoming a blazing, sun-bright, orange-red point of light in midair. It streaked across the distant sky and vanished, leaving only a dark afterimage burned into the retina.

Then came the second shot, the third, the fourth—

The orange-red stars, like a meteor shower, streaked across the sky one after another—sharp arrows piercing the Celestial Vault, descending from the heavens to strike their targets.

'So this... is the power of a Commander Tier?'

A Creation born from the fusion of modern technology and the power of Cultivation, the embodiment of a Transcendent as the 'ultimate individual productive force'... This was a power that allowed a single person to rival an entire army!

Rafael suddenly had an epiphany. His previous thoughts about his own path had been too constrained by the ancient traditions of the Sealing Envoys. 'Yes,' he thought, 'dividing myself into several parts to separately seal the power of Spirit Beasts, then merging them at a critical moment can indeed unleash incredible strength.'

'But no one ever said I had to seal a bunch of mismatched Spirit Beasts with no real synergy, like the ancients did!'

'I could design powerful mechanical components powered by Spiritual Power and fuse them to my body using a Seal. Then, when the time comes, the components could merge to form a complete, colossal war machine—a Giant Beast of battle! Wouldn't that synergy be far better than just randomly sealing powerful Spirit Beasts?'

But let's leave Rafael to his epiphany.

Far away, the Spirit Summoning Association's camp was now facing annihilation delivered from a great distance.

The orange-red stars of steel appeared as they fell from the sky, and by the time the Leaders of the Spirit Summoning Association noticed, it was already too late to defend themselves.
