Chapter 268 111: Ghost City, Primordial Great Emperor
BOOM—!
Shards of rock flew, gouging a deep crater in the ground.
ROAR—!!
An earth-shattering roar echoed as the red-furred monster shot out from the crater.
But the moment it emerged, a dazzling fist imprint instantly closed in.
BAM!!
The fist's energy was like a dragon, and vast Divine Power washed over it. Its body was sent flying like a stone for ten thousand meters before it crashed to the ground again.
SWOOSH—!
In a flash of green light, Chen Yu's figure appeared before the red-furred monster.
His Force Field amplified his power, veins bulged on his skin, and the wind howled from his fists.
THUD! THUD! THUD!!
One punch after another, each one powerful enough to shatter mountains and split rivers.
The ground shook. The area around him collapsed, and a thick cloud of dust rose into the air.
In the span of a few breaths, hundreds of punches had landed on the red-furred monster's body.
CRACK!!
With a final, charged blow, his heavy fist fell once more, and the red-furred monster's head exploded like a watermelon.
Its life aura was extinguished!
"Phew..."
Having dealt with the red-furred monster, Chen Yu let out a long breath.
"Forty-five million... not bad." A satisfied expression appeared on Chen Yu's face as he watched his Source of Life increase. Then, he slowly stood up.
'It's dead...'
In the distance, Zhuang Bo had been poised to strike, but he never even got the chance.
Chen Yu had finished it in an instant.
Astonishing power and freakish speed—he'd defeated a level-eight monster without even using that Undead-like ability of his.
'Looks like he's even stronger than the rumors say...' Zhuang Bo thought to himself as he watched Chen Yu.
A level-eight monster, defeated just like that.
'His power must be nearly on par with a level-nine.'
'Otherwise, there's no way he could have finished it so quickly.'
Snapping back to his senses, Zhuang Bo hurried forward. Seeing the red-furred monster in the crater with its head blown off, he winced inwardly.
'He completely smashed it!'
'What a... miserable way to die!'
"Sir, the monster has been dealt with. Are you planning to continue exploring?" Zhuang Bo asked Chen Yu.
"We just got here. We'll stay a bit longer. You want to leave already?" Chen Yu asked, looking at Zhuang Bo.
Zhuang Bo thought for a moment before looking at Chen Yu. "I'm in no hurry either. I will follow you, Sir."
Chen Yu glanced at him but didn't say anything. He scanned the collapsed pyramid, his gaze turning toward the depths of the wilderness.
'This misty Abyss World might hold some nice "surprises"!'
VMMMM—!
His Biological Force Field flared, and Chen Yu took Zhuang Bo with him, heading into the depths of the wilderness.
—
The wilderness was covered in a vast, white expanse of mist.
It seemed the entire world was shrouded in this strange white fog.
As for its source, there were currently no leads.
After flying through the void for several hundred kilometers, the dense white fog gradually dissipated.
Chen Yu stopped, hovering in the air as his gaze fell upon the scene ahead.
A city had appeared before his eyes.
At a glance, this city seemed no different from a modern one.
And yet, something about it was unsettling!
The fog was very thin around the city, but a faint purple light permeated the sky above it.
The radiation here had also reached a new high.
It was extremely intense!
Unlike the other Abyss Cities he had been to, the one before him looked completely intact.
It wasn't a city of ruins.
'Could there still be surviving humans living in this world?' A thought surfaced in Chen Yu's mind as he gazed at the city bathed in purple light.
He had explored many parts of the Abyss, but this was the first intact Abyss City he had ever found.
If there really were surviving humans living in this city, the news would be an absolute bombshell!
To date, many Abyss Worlds had appeared on the Ancestor Star and in other human worlds, but in all of them—aside from beasts and the occasional appearance of an Alien Race—not a single one had been found with a large population of surviving humans.
When a new Abyssal Realm appeared, it basically meant that the civilization of that Abyss World had already collapsed.
If this city really had native humans from the Abyss living in it, the news would undoubtedly cause a storm of epic proportions on the outside.
"Sir, I've got a feeling there's something wrong with this city..."
At his side, Zhuang Bo gazed at the city blanketed in purple light and couldn't help but speak up.
"Oh?"
Chen Yu looked at Zhuang Bo. "Something wrong? What is it?"
Zhuang Bo shook his head. "I can't put my finger on it. I just feel like something's off."
Chen Yu stared at the city and said, "If it's just a feeling, then let's go take a look."
With that, Chen Yu's figure blurred into motion, heading for the city shrouded in purple light.
Zhuang Bo followed close behind, keeping up with Chen Yu as they both flew toward the purple-lit city.
The moment they entered the purple-lit city, both men felt the radiation in the air spike instantly.
HUMMM—!
The radiation was so powerful that even Zhuang Bo felt he couldn't withstand it. He activated his Qi to form a protective barrier, which made him feel much better.
Chen Yu, however, had no reaction at all.
His physical body far surpassed his own cultivation level, and his all-around Defense Power was on a completely different level from Zhuang Bo's.
Entering the city, they scanned their surroundings. The skyscrapers lining the streets were completely intact.
However, there wasn't the slightest sign of life.
Instead, the place had a deathly still atmosphere.
His Force Field's senses were suppressed, so Chen Yu could only rely on his eyes to observe.
As they walked forward, Zhuang Bo stuck closely behind him.
The extreme silence was somewhat terrifying.
They walked along the road at a leisurely pace, observing their surroundings as they went.
"Sir, look!"
Zhuang Bo suddenly pointed in a certain direction. Chen Yu followed his gaze and saw a humanoid statue.
The statue was so lifelike it was as if it were a living person, giving off a sense of "vitality."
