Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 1179: Chapter 520: Li Qinghua’s Breakthrough

The glow, dazzlingly bright, suddenly exploded.

In an instant, it transformed into a light blade, shooting fiercely towards the swordtail sea serpent.

The swordtail sea serpent suddenly opened its eyes in rage.

As soon as it opened its eyes, the light blade exploded with a roar.

Under the piercingly bright light, the swordtail sea serpent quickly closed its eyes and turned its head.

With anger, it closed its eyes and rushed headlong into the fifth-floor shop.

Boom!

The shop over there was immediately smashed to pieces, with bricks clattering and exploding, and bubbles rolling underwater.

However, inside it was empty, with no sign of anyone.

The swordtail sea serpent angrily opened its mouth and sprayed a burst of venom.

The venom spread rapidly through the water, swiftly expanding in all directions.

Amid the ruins, two transparent figures quickly emerged from the debris, speeding towards downstairs.

For some reason, the swordtail sea serpent seemed oblivious to them, continuing to furiously destroy the surrounding buildings.

Liang Yuan’s gaze instantly focused on the two figures, revealing a look of surprise and delight.

"Li Xiangyang, Zhang Rongrong!"

These two are none other than Li Xiangyang and Zhang Rongrong from Meishan Jieshi Academy.

Currently, Zhang Rongrong is deploying a spiritual barrier, isolating external probes, and leading Li Xiangyang in a frantic escape.

Undoubtedly, the light blade attack just now was surely from Li Xiangyang.

However, Liang Yuan was puzzled, as Li Xiangyang’s light blade attack seemed powerful but hardly posed a threat to the swordtail sea serpent.

What was his intention?

There’s no time to think further; rescuing people is more important, Liang Yuan flashed and immediately prepared to take action.

But in the next moment, he suddenly hesitated.

He saw the swordtail sea serpent’s body fiercely trembling, its entire snake body twisting and rolling.

It opened its mouth, letting out a tragic sound of sonic wailing.

Though there was no actual sound, the water surged from its mouth, rolling out bubbles along with a large mass of viscera and blood foam, indicating the intensity of its scream.

Liang Yuan felt slightly astonished, his figure flashing as he arrived before Li Xiangyang and Zhang Rongrong.

Li Xiangyang and Zhang Rongrong first changed their expressions, instinctively preparing to act.

However, upon recognizing the visitor’s face, they both instantly showed expressions of joyful surprise.

"Mr. Liang!"

"Mr. Liang, how did you end up here!"

Liang Yuan waved his hand, blasting away the incoming bricks and stones, and instead asked, "Let’s not talk about that now, I’ll deal with this beast first."

Liang Yuan was just about to act when Li Xiangyang hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Mr. Liang, wait, don’t act yet. Li Qinghua is still inside it."

"What?"

Liang Yuan was shocked, looking at Li Xiangyang in disbelief.

Li Xiangyang quickly said, "Don’t worry, Mr. Liang, Brother Qinghua intentionally let it swallow him."

"We’ve made a significant discovery; this folded space is actually like a floating island, a type of spatial floating island."

"However, its heart core was swallowed by this beast. It can manipulate the changes of the folded space."

"To reclaim the heart core, Brother Qinghua took a risk to enter its body and attempt to separate the heart core directly."

Liang Yuan was greatly surprised, never imagining that Li Qinghua and the others were plotting something so significant.

Liang Yuan quickly asked, "Is he in danger inside this beast’s body?"

"He should be safe. Brother Qinghua mentioned he has a space bubble barrier protecting him, preventing erosion by the opponent’s stomach acid."

"What about you two?"

"We’re responsible for distracting this beast externally, preventing it from concentrating on digesting Brother Qinghua inside."

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but ask, "How long has Li Qinghua been inside?"

"Almost two days," Li Xiangyang promptly answered.

Zhang Rongrong added, "Seeing this beast spitting blood, Brother Qinghua is probably close to succeeding. Mr. Liang, wait a bit, we can’t kill it now."

Li Xiangyang also said, "Only when this beast is alive can the heart core be stripped away. If it dies, the heart core will disperse."

Liang Yuan was astonished, "How do you know this?"

"The brain core of the folded space disappeared similarly," Li Xiangyang quickly replied.

Liang Yuan finally understood that they had tracked the brain core of the folded space.

He immediately asked, "What does ’disappear’ mean? Where did it go?"

"We don’t know where it went either. The one who initially swallowed the brain core was an insect-type mutant beast."

"We barely managed to slay it, but it used the brain core to attract a large number of genetic mutation beasts to attack us."

"We were injured as a result, forced to separate. By the way, Mr. Liang, did you find Miss Ding and Zhou Qingming?"

Liang Yuan replied, "Don’t worry, they’re already safe."

"What about Xia Ming and Old Ge?"

Speaking of this, Li Xiangyang’s expression turned somber, "Xia Ming sacrificed himself, and Old Ge is missing."

Liang Yuan’s face darkened, "How did Xia Ming die?"

"Xia Ming was covering for us when he was attacked by a group of swordtail sea serpent juveniles. We were being chased by the swordtail sea serpent mother body."

"Brother Qinghua only managed to apply a space bubble on him before we were forced to jump into the spatial rift."

Liang Yuan immediately understood whose skeleton he saw in the space bubble on Sakura Avenue.

That skeleton was Xia Ming’s!

Given Xia Ming’s metal attribute superpower, he should have been the one with the strongest defense.

Unexpectedly, he was the first to sacrifice!

Zhang Rongrong, with reddened eyes, said, "Xia Ming’s defense was strong, but those swordtail sea serpent juveniles could release venom..."

She didn’t continue, but Liang Yuan had already guessed what happened.

Xia Ming could defend against physical attacks, but against venom, he might not withstand it.

His expression was grim; any superpower user from Yangshan was a precious resource.

Especially since Xia Ming has already cultivated to 50 Points, and that’s why he followed Ding Yan out to seek opportunities.

This makes it even more regrettable.

While the three were talking, the swordtail sea snake’s body suddenly erupted with a loud roar.

The next moment, a figure tore through the swordtail sea snake’s body, stepping out as if teleporting.

It was seen that Li Qinghua was full of superpower energy, his presence formidable.

Liang Yuan sensed the genetic species energy fluctuations.

He immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "He succeeded!"

Li Qinghua was full of excitement and joy; he turned to look at the swordtail sea snake with a murderous gleam in his eyes.

"Beast, today I’ll take your head to honor Brother Xia Ming!"

He shouted angrily, bringing his fingers together like a blade, and slashed down forcefully!

Swish!

An extremely fine crack appeared in the space instantly!

Swish!

A spatial rift directly sliced through the swordtail sea snake’s head.

The incredibly strong snake scales had no chance of withstanding it.

In an instant, its head was split in two.

Blood immediately gushed out, and the massive snake body crashed down.

The swordtail sea snake’s head also rolled and sank into the sea.

Due to its physiological structure, its head hadn’t completely died yet, and it was still opening and closing its mouth as if trying to bite something.

Liang Yuan was somewhat amazed at this scene.

Li Qinghua seemed to have mastered some incredible spatial-type skills after breaking through the genetic species.

This spatial rift slash has astonishing attack power.

You know, the defense power of this swordtail sea snake was extremely strong.

Even Wu Yaobang with so many clones didn’t dare to provoke it.

However, Liang Yuan also realized that the strength of Li Qinghua’s attack was due to the spatial rift.

It wasn’t because his attribute was particularly strong.

In fact, the strength of the spatial rift slash lay in the spatial rift itself.

Li Qinghua only needed to use superpowers to open the spatial rift.

"Qinghua!"

"Brother Qinghua, quickly look who’s here!"

Li Xiangyang and Zhang Rongrong shouted immediately.

Li Qinghua turned around and saw Liang Yuan, and immediately showed a look of surprise and delight.

"Mr. Liang, why are you here?"

Liang Yuan looked him over and couldn’t help but laugh, "Can I rest easy when you all come out to hunt genetic mutation beasts by yourselves?"

Li Qinghua felt a bit moved and couldn’t help but say, "We know you’re busy, Mr. Liang, so we didn’t dare to disturb you. By the way, is the virus issue at Yangshan resolved?"

Liang Yuan nodded, "The situation at Yangshan has been resolved, I’ll tell you more later, but first, let’s talk about your side."

"Did you refine the Heart Core of the wrinkle space?"

Li Qinghua nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I didn’t expect that this wrinkle space was actually like a floating island."

"But the Brain Core and Heart Core of this wrinkle space were actually devoured by mutant beasts."

Liang Yuan interrupted him and asked solemnly, "Now that you’ve refined the Heart Core, can you control that space?"

Li Qinghua shook his head at this and said, "I’ve only initially refined it, not completely yet. For now, I can only exert some surface-level control over that wrinkle space."

Liang Yuan immediately said, "Can you open the wrinkle space? We have to return immediately."

Li Qinghua nodded immediately, "Of course, it’s great, I need to go back and settle the score with Eden!"

Liang Yuan waved his hand and said, "I’ve already dealt with the issue of Eden, but Wu Yaobang’s main body hasn’t been found yet. He’s hiding very deeply, and I can’t guarantee he doesn’t still have a clone hiding in some corner of the space."

"What? Clones?" Li Qinghua was shocked and asked, "Isn’t he supposed to be immortal?"

Liang Yuan shook his head, "No, his so-called immortality is just to deceive outsiders and create the persona of a Divine Son."

"In reality, his immortality is due to his cloning ability."

"Many of those Angels around him with number masks are actually his clones."

"Once the Divine Son clone dies, a new numbered angel clone lifts the mask to assume the Divine Son’s identity, giving people the impression that he resurrected."

"Currently, his main body is hidden somewhere unknown, but these clones also feel pain. Although they don’t fear death, they fear torture."

"Though I’ve killed all his clones on Little Straw Mountain, I can’t definitively say he doesn’t have any clones left in that wrinkle space."

"So we must return as soon as possible."

"Now that you have the Heart Core, can you sense him?"

"No, sensing the biological presence within the space requires the Heart Core. I’ve only just obtained the Brain Core, and my control over the space isn’t strong enough yet." Li Qinghua shook his head.

Liang Yuan asked, "How were you planning to deal with Wu Yaobang originally?"

"If he’s truly immortal, I’ll just open a spatial rift and throw him in, letting him die repeatedly in the spatial turbulence. Eventually, he’ll exhaust his superpower, and someday, he’ll completely die," Li Qinghua said.

Liang Yuan slightly nodded; this indeed was a good method.

Back then, even Wu Meng, and previously Huang Mingkai, could actually be dealt with in this manner by depleting their superpower.

As long as their superpower is drained completely, no so-called immortality or damage transfer will save them from certain death in the end.

"Did Xiangyang just say that when you killed that mutant beast that refined the Heart Core, you completely lost the Heart Core? Is that true?"

Li Qinghua looked regretful and said, "Yes, I could sense that the Heart Core has completely disappeared."

"The Heart Core and Brain Core of these floating islands can only be freely refined the first time."

"For a second refining, it must be done by a living body. Otherwise, once the original host dies, the Heart Core and Brain Core are bound to dissipate."

"Of course, the floating island itself won’t disappear."

Liang Yuan slightly nodded and made a mental note of this.

Li Qinghua said, "Let’s return to Mirage Snake Space."

"Mirage Snake Space?" Li Xiangyang asked in surprise.

Li Qinghua slapped his forehead, "I forgot to mention, this wrinkle space is actually called Mirage Snake Space. Based on the heritage I obtained from refining the Heart Core, this spatial-type floating island, in essence, is formed from the corpse of a creature called a Mirage Snake!"
