Chapter 1354: The Power of the Non-Human
Before Xu Rong could clearly see the terrifying changes around her.
The previously distorted corridor had completely plunged into darkness. There was no sound in the claustrophobic space; only she and Wu Tao could see the faint gleam in each other's eyes.
Xu Rong was petrified.
At this moment, she was filled with unknown terror, unable to even mount a subconscious defense. Everything she saw had completely surpassed her comprehension!
In utter despair, she could only look at Wu Tao in panic!
"What on earth is going on?!"
Wu Tao, however, remained extremely calm, casually offering a word of comfort.
"Shh..."
"Don't speak. It will be over in a moment."
Neither the surrounding gloom nor the suffocating oppressiveness of the narrow space caused him the slightest panic. He could be so calm simply because he felt absolutely no sense of danger.
This kind of scene, which would terrify ordinary people, was nothing but a minor inconvenience to him.
Slowly raising his eyes, a hint of a playful smile even appeared in Wu Tao's gaze.
"You really know how to cower."
"I've waited for you for so long. Are you finally willing to show yourself?"
His soft voice echoed, exuding an indescribable, domineering aura.
Xu Rong stared blankly as she listened. She felt that the young man before her had undergone a massive change in demeanor. It was as if a terrifying aura she couldn't understand was spreading silently, unfamiliar and fearsome!
Following Wu Tao's question.
The claustrophobic space offered no verbal reply. His only answer was terrifying beams of light shooting toward them from all directions!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The pillars of light were as bright as meteors and as fast as rushing thunder. In the blink of an eye, they crisscrossed their surroundings, almost completely enveloping the two of them. If touched, one couldn't even fathom the horrific consequences!
In an instant.
The color drained from Xu Rong's face. The intuition of impending death stripped her of the courage to even move. She had no idea how to dodge such a calamity; what she was witnessing had completely shattered her worldview!
What on earth was this place?!
And those pillars of light, what kind of terrifying power were they?!
With shock after shock hitting her, this elite talent of Pingjiang City actually felt an inferiority akin to an ant, left with no choice but to be slaughtered without any resistance!
Wu Tao, however, remained incredibly calm.
Facing the various pillars of light shooting toward him, his eyes revealed a normal expression of relaxed sleepiness.
"Cheap tricks."
With a gentle wave of his hand, he reduced the endless light to smoke and dust!
Flipping his hand into a palm and giving a light push, he brought the light back to this realm. From the depths of the retreating darkness, a cry of pain echoed!
"Ugh..."
Seeing the darkness dissipate, the mastermind behind the scenes attempted to flee!
A ruthless glint flashed in Wu Tao's eyes, and he was about to give chase.
But unexpectedly.
The pale-faced Xu Rong, unable to withstand the lingering pressure, went limp and collapsed onto his shoulder. In that split second of distraction, the dark figure vanished without a trace.
Looking at the pale face of the captain, who was now as limp as mud, Wu Tao sighed helplessly.
"Sigh, this is just too weak..."
He called out to her softly a few times, but she remained unresponsive.
Left with no choice, he used a tiny fraction of his cultivation base, lightly tapping his toes, and grabbed the woman to tear through space and exit.
Not long after, the two landed on an island in the middle of an endless ocean.
The breeze was gentle, the sun was bright, and the air was fresh.
Xu Rong finally opened her eyes slowly.
She sat up weakly, still looking utterly bewildered. When she clearly saw the surging waves and the groves of coconut trees before her, she almost petrified. Before she could even recover from the previous shock, her mind suffered an even more terrifying impact!
"This..."
"This."
"This!"
After struggling for a long time, she couldn't even utter a single extra word!
Who knew how much time had passed.
The breathtakingly beautiful captain finally seemed to believe what she was seeing. She stealthily glanced at Wu Tao, who was sitting lazily and quietly beside her, her face full of shock. Even though she had thousands of questions in her heart, she couldn't voice a single one at this moment.
That originally scruffy and lazy slacker's face had now become incredibly mysterious and tyrannical, as unreachable as a figure from ancient mythology.
With a soft smile, his question blocked her myriad of doubts.
"Now, do you still think the question you asked earlier is important?"
This time, Xu Rong did not reply.
Looking at his face illuminated by the sunlight, it was as if she were gazing upon the face of a god. Only unspeakable shock and reverence constantly surfaced in the depths of her eyes.
All her doubts could only turn into a numb nod.
The once capable and outstandingly beautiful captain was now no different from an ignorant little girl, completely overwhelmed by shock!
Looking at her silly appearance.
Wu Tao wasn't surprised in the slightest, nor did he offer any extra words.
After all.
He had long since transcended all living things and creation. How could he be an existence that ordinary people could comprehend?
Out of goodwill, he casually instructed.
"Wait here for a moment."
"I'll send you back after I finish my business."
Xu Rong was completely dumbfounded and could only nod obediently.
Seeing that there were no more distractions, Wu Tao focused his attention, raised his eyes to the cloudless sky, slowly stood up, and called out!
"Are you going to come out by yourself, or do you want me to drag you out?"
His voice wasn't loud, but as if it had never weakened in the slightest, it continuously spread into the depths of the clouds. It sounded like a whisper right next to the ear, heard clearly in every corner!
However, several minutes passed, and the silent island received no human response.
Finally.
Wu Tao lost his patience and stomped his foot onto the sandy beach!
With this stomp.
There was no movement on the beach, nor was there any obvious muffled thud. It seemed as powerless as a child's step, and the entire island remained as sunny and breezy as before.
But in the very next moment!
The waves by the beach actually began to surge backward. The momentum of the rising tide was several times stronger than before, soaring to dozens of feet high in the blink of an eye!
Such a miraculous sight appeared all around the shores of the entire island!
Monstrous waves surged back toward the sea. It was as if, with the island as the epicenter, an indescribable and terrifying power was rippling outward layer by layer!
Wave after wave rose higher, and the tremors had yet to subside!
In just a few breaths.
The resurging waves had actually climbed to hundreds of feet high, spreading toward the endless surface of the sea. They were clearly visible even at the distant horizon!
The seabirds in the sky were nearly unable to fly over those horrifying waves. The wind howled, the clouds churned, and the colors of the world changed!
"Boom!!!"
A rumbling sound far surpassing that of a tsunami echoed through heaven and earth. The sky-swallowing giant waves were enough to submerge everything!
Watching this scene.
The stiffly seated Xu Rong was dumbfounded, completely questioning reality!
She simply couldn't imagine what kind of terrifying power this was. An existence fearsome enough to reshape heaven and earth was actually standing right before her eyes. Everything she had seen today surpassed the comprehension of the mortal world!
This kind of power was absolutely not something a human could possess!
Just what kind of being was the man in front of her?
While Xu Rong was drowning in shock, the waves continued to sweep and spread. Their climbing momentum never ceased, transmitting directly to various lands and crashing ashore!
The entire world was plunged into an unprecedented tremor!
