Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies-Chapter 1048: A Joke
Chapter 1048: A Joke
The twin blades of Oni God Child were condensed with overwhelming resentment energy. One blade pressed against one superhuman as they engaged in frenzied slaughter.
Meanwhile, Soul Reaper was even more insane in battle. As a creature already at death's threshold, he surpassed everyone in madness, employing fighting methods of extreme ferocity, trading life for life!
The three mutually restrained each other, continuously diving downward into the abyss while pulling at one another. Whoever tried to advance first would face the combined attacks of the other two from behind.
Killing intent boiled!
Battle spirit surged!
Like three most terrifying beasts locked in mortal combat, fighting like cornered animals!
The energy storms constantly emanating from Mist Valley had cleared the cloud layers in the sky.
Revealing the rare blue skies and white clouds that had been unseen since the apocalypse.
A massive circular void appeared above the entire Mist Valley.
The three monsters fought with deadly intent against each other, roaring and tearing at one another until they were drenched in blood within moments.
Zhang Yi and Canero stood very far from the abyss, also maintaining considerable distance from each other.
Yet the ground beneath their feet still trembled as if from an magnitude 8 earthquake, then completely shattered!
Eventually, the central area of Mist Valley nearly collapsed entirely, forcing them to retreat to the valley's edges to escape this terrifying power.
Merely the residual effects had reached such horrifying levels—this was the power of Epsilon-level superhumans.
And this was just the destructive capability of three superhumans who had barely stepped across the Epsilon threshold!
It was difficult to imagine what terrifying scene would unfold if superhumans of Cadillus or Xuanwu's caliber fought at full strength.
Time seemed to pass with excruciating slowness.
In the three monsters' eyes, that sacred light source drew increasingly closer. Their eyes slowly widened as if they could already feel that divine power!
By now, not one of them remained unwounded—all were covered in blood and scars.
But approaching the light source made their blood boil even more fiercely!
Oni God Child let out an enraged roar, charging at Weak Water Glazed Dragon God with twin blades—one slashing at his slender neck, the other stabbing toward his chest and abdomen.
Weak Water Glazed Dragon God had never let his focus waver. Seeing Oni God Child assaulting him, his entire body suddenly erupted with astonishing orange light, illuminating the ten-thousand-meter abyss as brightly as daylight!
The power of Weak Water Glaze distorted the blade edges but couldn't completely deflect their force. "Splat!" Transparent, crystalline blood sprayed out!
The dragon god's head simultaneously aimed at Oni God Child and unleashed a thick atomic breath, shattering Oni God Child's armor!
Seizing the moment while the other two fought, Soul Reaper accelerated his charge straight toward the light source, extending his massive hand!
Seeing this, both Weak Water Glazed Dragon God and Oni God Child roared in fury, then simultaneously launched their most violent attacks at Soul Reaper's back!
Soul Reaper paid no heed—as long as he could obtain the Divine Source, even taking attacks from both would be entirely worth it!
The moment he approached the light source, his body was enveloped by a warm current, feeling as warm as being bathed in sunlight.
"Is this... the Divine Source?"
Soul Reaper felt so ecstatic he nearly shouted aloud.
But suddenly, the joy in his eyes slowly faded, replaced by confusion and bewilderment.
Why did this Divine Source look like a giant eye... eerily similar to something he knew very well?
"BOOM!!!"
The attacks from Oni God Child and Weak Water Glazed Dragon God struck his back.
Soul Reaper's back was directly torn open, revealing gruesome flesh and even bone!
But he gritted his teeth and forcibly withstood the blow, leaping into the light source.
"Hahaha, Divine Source, you belong to me now!"
He spread his arms and threw himself into that surging warm current, ready to experience evolution at the life level.
Weak Water Glazed Dragon God and Oni God Child could only watch helplessly—it was already too late to stop him.
"THUD!"
A loud impact sounded.
Soul Reaper landed in the middle of the "Divine Source."
He froze for a moment, looking down at what lay beneath him—the texture felt strangely familiar. The dazzling light source blinded him, yet the sensation remained intensely recognizable.
And at this moment, with his thunderous landing, the transparent object beneath him shattered with a "CRASH!"
"POP!"
The towering pillar of light vanished once again.
At the bottom of the ten-thousand-meter abyss, only the orange glow emanating from Weak Water Glazed Dragon God's body remained.
But with the light pillar gone, all three monsters could clearly see the true appearance below.
Where was any Divine Source?
There was only a massive, monster-eye-like mechanical device staring fixedly at them!
"This is... a searchlight???"
Qinglong cried out involuntarily.
Karasenshu and Soul Reaper also recognized what this thing was.
It was actually an enormous searchlight, gigantic with a diameter over twenty meters!
And from beginning to end, the mysterious light source they had seen was emitted by this device.
After a brief silence, Soul Reaper erupted with furious roars that madly echoed through the ten-thousand-meter depths!
The three of them had fought so long and brutally, drenching themselves in blood, only to discover they'd been deceived by a despicable trap?
"Impossible, this absolutely can't be fake! I clearly felt the Divine Source's presence—how could it be false!"
Enraged, Soul Reaper smashed the searchlight to pieces with one punch, then began wildly destroying everything at the abyss bottom, trying to find the hidden Divine Source.
But the air contained only faint traces of Divine Source residue—where was the actual Divine Source itself?
Qinglong could still maintain rationality. Though filled with inner pessimism and despair, he had figured out the truth.
"There never was any Divine Source! From the very beginning, this was just a trap to make us destroy each other!"
Karasenshu's face, hidden within the oni-like spirit, turned deathly pale. They had paid such a great price, even deploying their ultimate weapon.
And this was the result?
Had they all become laughingstocks?
"Then how do you explain the Divine Source's presence?"
Qinglong gave a bleak smile: "If someone who had contacted the Divine Source wanted to simulate its signal through electronic devices, it wouldn't be difficult. As for energy fluctuations, those are even easier to create."
The madness in Karasenshu's eyes gradually twisted, making her appear as ferocious as a demon.
"AHHHHH!!!!"
She let out a piercing, miserable scream.
Ultimate weapons like Oni God Child had severe usage limitations because they employed a Curse Technique.
Each use inflicted tremendous damage upon herself.
And this time, having fully unleashed the power of tens of thousands of vengeful spirits, she didn't know how long it would take to recover.
Simultaneously, Soul Reaper's period of rationality was nearing its end—his pupils turned completely red.
The abyss depths now resembled a demonic cave opening, with vicious, murderous energy surging upward to the heavens!
