A Night of Desperation

Chapter 435: Anning Three

Just when things had settled down, were dissenting views starting to emerge?

Yu Hong sighed in his heart.

Often, there were many things he couldn’t set his heart at ease about.

Although the world seemed stable now, it was just like his previous conversation with the tiger from Prison Island.

He now understood.

The world’s stability was merely a fleeting and beautiful illusion;eternally, some pursued immortality, and in their pursuit, they would discover disasters too powerful to resist that would destroy them regardless.

Whether one could truly attain longevity, they would be destroyed.

Thus, resistance became the mainstream of everything.

How to resist?

He recalled the old crone from the Black Disaster, the tiger from the high tower, and the Spirit Disaster...

Now it seemed that the Heaven of Spirit Disaster might also be an attempt by the ancient supreme beings.

Otherwise, according to the tiger’s theory, how could there be orderly architecture, armor, and patterns in the midst of the Source Disaster?

There were far too many mysteries concerning the Source Disaster...

He had now cultivated to the Fifth Layer Sunset of Tai Ling Skill;there were four more layers to go before he must solve the merging problem with the Ultimate Sun... With the aggressiveness of the Light Disaster Ultimate Sun, based on that sinister cultivation technique, he might face it within decades...

"No matter what, I’ll be careful not to investigate here." Yu Hong replied, his demeanor extraordinarily sincere.

Chen Yaofeng didn’t say anything more, the topic was somewhat heavy.

To save those who were suspected to have been sacrificed, would risk breaking the hard-earned peace now.

But shouldn’t those from the past be saved?

After seeing off a few people, Yu Hong walked alone in the base’s botanical garden, looking at the blue sky, silent for a long while.

Before long, he suddenly turned around to look behind him.

Zhang Kajing had appeared there at some point. She was dressed in a simple white T-shirt and tight jeans, her long hair tied in a ponytail, revealing pure and taut curves.

Apart from her rather cold demeanor, her appearance did not differ much from an ordinary female student here.

"Did you call me back for something?" Zhang Kajing asked.

"Um, I plan to go back once, and I want you to come with me." Yu Hong said seriously.

"?"

Zhang Kajing blinked, unclear on what he meant.

"Quan He might not be dead yet. It might seem like everything is peaceful and stable now, but there are still many things undone. I promised your father to look after you, so you must come with me." Yu Hong said.

His expression was stern, leaving no room for argument.

’Is this taking care? Are you sure???’

"...." Zhang Kajing’s expression twisted a bit, but she didn’t reply, just quietly looked at him for a while.

"I don’t."

She said softly.

"This place is comfortable, I don’t want to leave."

Boom!!

In the next moment, a huge hand came crashing down, grabbing her neck, lifting her high into the air, suspending her midair.

Huge silver Spirit Light and Tai Ling Inner Strength crazily poured into her body.

Then, he smashed her downwards.

Bang!!!

A loud sound erupted.

The floor of the botanical garden now had a two-meter-wide radioactive crater.

Yu Hong held Zhang Kajing down with one hand, watching as her face remained calm while blood slowly trickled out from her facial features due to the shock.

After staring at each other for a while, he finally released her.

"Shall we go together?" Yu Hong asked again.

"..... Okay." Zhang Kajing struggled up from the pit, subdued.

"Go get ready." Yu Hong said calmly.

He could not knowingly leave Zhang Kajing alone here while she had issues.

This piece of the world had been hard to come by and it had settled down at last.

He wouldn’t allow any potential risks to ruin it.

Zhang Kajing turned and left.

Yu Hong also went straight back to cultivate. Since the cultivation techniques were temporarily sufficient, the Moist Wood Liquid needed for cultivation, which had also been enhanced these days, was ready. Now he planned to strengthen the Black Ship.

He passed through various places in the base, through multiple areas, and all of the Spirit Alliance soldiers he encountered gave him the utmost respect and salute.

Everyone bowed slightly, lowered their heads, stood still, and saluted him.

After passing through the playground, the cafeteria, and a shooting range, Yu Hong arrived in front of a private white building.

Entering the building, he took the elevator to the second floor.

This entire floor had been converted into one big area.

Similar to the initial Quan He, this entire floor was filled with various rune symbols he devised while re

Centered on the giant eel’s eye, a circle of transparent, invisible force field directly enveloped an area of several tens of meters around the Black Ship.

Within this range, everything at that moment slowed down.

The black water droplets that splashed in fell at a rate much slower than before, as if a super-slow device had been activated.

The cables swayed by the wind, their oscillating speed was also much slower than before.

"A slowing ability?" Yu Hong had felt from a far distance that this fish’s eye might have abilities, and pulling it up proved him right.

"The intensity isn’t exaggerated, just perfect," he said in good spirits, his arm glowing red as Tai Ling Skill Inner Strength forcefully accelerated.

With a hiss, breaking through the slowdown, he reached out and firmly grasped the cyclops eel, while his other hand condensed Inner Strength into a large hand, precisely targeting the eel’s eye, started to gouge.

Tear.

Accompanied by a strange, agonizing scream, the red cyclops eye, the size of a fist, appeared in Yu Hong’s hand.

He did not look at the eel that was writhing in pain, but instead examined the hard-earned cyclops eye.

"Eating it raw... kind of disgusting...."

But that’s exactly what the cultivation technique recorded, so...

Plop.

Yu Hong stuffed it into his mouth, preparing to chew and swallow it in a few bites.

Suddenly, the Inner Strength of recently cultivated Chaotic God Heavenly Eye Scripture unexpectedly flowed out from the Dantian on its own, drilling into the eyeball.

The next second.

This cyclops eye instantly decomposed, transforming into a mouthful of clear water-like liquid that flowed down his throat on its own.
