A ball of light, millions of times brighter than the sun, suddenly erupted at the location of the Gray family headquarters.
Immediately following was a devastating shockwave, intense heat, and deadly radiation.
A massive mushroom cloud rose into the sky, symbolizing the weapon of humanity's greatest destructive power in the old era, once again displaying its majesty in this wasteland.
Chen Yuan watched this scene through the remote video and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
In his view, even a sixth-tier powerhouse would have no chance of survival at the epicenter of a nuclear explosion of such magnitude.
However, a change has occurred.
Just as the nuclear fireball was about to engulf everything, the footage captured a chilling moment.
Led by Gray, a total of seventeen figures let out beast-like roars within a limited time, and their bodies underwent terrifying mutations.
Its body swelled to over two meters tall, its skin covered in keratin, and wings made of Mana flower petals and bone spurs tore out from its back, completely transforming it into a humanoid Devouring Beast.
Gray and his 17-member team unleashed their combined Mayan energy to form a protective shield, preserving themselves as much as possible.
The terrifying energy of the nuclear explosion swept across...
As the light and dust dissipated, it was astonishing to see eleven figures still standing on the edge of the epicenter, which had become a giant, glassy crater.
Although six of the weaker offspring, such as Gray Plague and Gray Evil, were reduced to ashes in the explosion, five others, such as Gray Erosion and Gray Illusion, had scorch marks and cracks on their bodies, indicating that they had suffered minor injuries.
However, several of the strongest individuals, including Gray, Gray Ming, and Gray Lu, seemed to be unharmed.
Relying on their terrifying defensive capabilities after transforming into beasts and their ability to absorb and convert explosive energy, they withstood this fatal blow!
"Chen! Yuan!!"
Gray roared to the sky, his voice filled with endless resentment and madness, as if from the deepest hell, "How dare you... I will tear you to pieces."
The aftershocks of the nuclear explosion have not yet subsided, radioactive dust is everywhere, and visibility is extremely low.
Just as the Gray family members were overwhelmed by the shock of the nuclear explosion and their extreme anger, a ghostly black shadow, taking advantage of the ruins and dust, silently approached one of their severely injured descendants, Gray Wind, who was using the power of his eye tumor to repair himself!
The attacker was none other than Charles, the blond-haired man from the edge of the abyss.
After the explosion, he used his exceptional stealth abilities as a follower to lie in wait, hoping for this fleeting opportunity.
The dark blue patterns on the surface of the Abyss Warrior armor were dull, and the V-shaped eyepiece locked onto the target.
When Charles was less than ten meters away from Greywind, he went all out. The crimson energy conduit on his back shone brightly, and the power of the armor was instantly activated.
Life-source tentacles!
Several tentacles made of dark red energy shot out from behind Charles like venomous snakes, striking at Graywind with lightning speed.
Although Greywind reacted extremely quickly, sensing the danger and suddenly turning to the side while swinging his claws to block, he was still a fraction too slow due to his severe injuries.
Several energy tentacles pierced his shoulder and side precisely.
"Ugh!"
Greifeng immediately let out a painful roar, feeling his life essence being frantically drained away.
The attack from the Abyssbrout was accompanied by extremely strong energy erosion, directly interfering with the energy circulation of the tumor in his body.
"die!"
Charles showed no mercy, his face full of excitement. The dark red particle fist blade in the Abyss's hand instantly shot out, its high-frequency vibration carrying a tearing force, and slammed into Graywind's heart, where his defenses were temporarily weakened due to the extraction of his source energy.
Chapter 214 Chen Yuan, the Dual-Ability User
"Successful!"
The sound of a sharp blade piercing through keratinized skin and muscle rang out.
Graywind stared in disbelief at the energy blade protruding from his chest, the crimson light in his eyes quickly dimming.
Charles's face contorted with rage, and with a twist of his right wrist, he utterly shattered his will to live.
"wind!"
Gray, standing some distance away, looked bewildered, while his other descendants cried out in grief and indignation.
They never expected that after the nuclear explosion, they would be ambushed again, and in the blink of an eye, they lost another core member.
"You ant, I'll make you pay with your life!"
Gray was completely enraged, and a terrifying late-stage sixth-order pressure slammed down on Charles like a tsunami.
The battle horn has finally sounded.
"You deserve to die..."
The ten remaining Greys rushed forward, ready to kill Charles.
At the critical moment, a sharp sonic boom came from the sky.
A blue meteor streaked through the dust and landed fiercely in front of Charles, blocking Gray's oppressive aura. It was Chen Yuan.
Bai Yuekui and others also arrived one after another, and a great battle broke out between the two sides.
……
At this moment, Chen Yuan was a completely different person.
The perfect-grade gene serum gave him a terrifying power a hundred times greater than that of an ordinary person, allowing him to break the sound barrier simply by relying on his physical speed.
Under the influence of the drug, Chen Yuan awakened both shadow and spatial abilities.
Rewind to an hour earlier, when Chen Yuan and his group had just annihilated the Black Armor Legion.
The system determined that the clones were not human, so each kill earned 1500 points. The Black Armor Legion, consisting of about 2200 people, earned a total of more than 330 million survival points.
At this moment, the system's beep sounded suddenly.
[Ding! The special exchange area in the system shop has been updated. Please check it.]
"updated?"
Chen Yuan's spirits lifted, and he immediately focused his attention on the system interface.
This special area refreshes every four months and displays some special items, some of which are useful to Chen Yuan, while others are not very useful to him.
The interface shimmered with light, and several items emitting unique glows slowly rotated.
Chen Yuan's gaze was instantly drawn to one of the spiral-shaped potions, suspended in the center, which looked as if it were made of liquid rubies and stardust.
Item Name: Seed of Origin, Perfect Gene Potion.
Description: A masterpiece from Hyperdimensional Technology, it is not merely an enhancement, but a guidance for life to undergo a fundamental rebirth.
The drug contains a topological gene engine that can safely unlock the genetic lock of a living organism, reconstruct its underlying code, and guide it to evolve towards its theoretically perfect form.
Comprehensive Enhancement: Based on the user's original physical condition, it improves physical fitness by 150 to 200 times in all aspects, including strength, speed, nerve response, cell activity, and self-healing ability.
Unleashing Potential: During the evolutionary process, there is a very high probability of awakening the primal abilities dormant deep within the genes.
This gene-editing agent can significantly extend lifespan, optimize all physiological functions, and generate extremely high resistance to most toxins, diseases, radiation, and psychological damage.
This is only valid for the first use; it will not be valid for repeated use.
It places extremely high demands on the user's basic physical condition; those with weak willpower may lose their consciousness in the tide of evolution.
Inventory: 3/3.
Exchange price: 200 million survival points/piece.
"That's it!"
Chen Yuan's eyes lit up. Other weapons could be acquired at any time, but this kind of evolutionary opportunity that directly affects the source of life was rare and hard to come by. He did not hesitate at all.
[Successfully exchanged for the Seed of Origin - Perfect Gene Potion, consuming 200 million Survival Points.]
[Successfully redeemed the Red Star Cross Tactical Nuclear Bomb, consuming 120 million Survival Points.]
[Current total remaining survival points: 13367.]
Millions of points vanished in an instant, but Chen Yuan now possessed a potion that seemed to have its own internal light flow operating on its own, as well as a tactical nuclear warhead exuding an aura of destruction.
With Bai Yuekui and the others around, Chen Yuan had no worries about his safety. These people were now his protectors. So Chen Yuan took a deep breath and injected the Seed of Origin into his carotid artery without hesitation.
The expected tearing pain did not come. Perhaps it was due to the previous enhancement and drug adaptation. He only felt a gentle and vast energy flow through his limbs and bones.
My body felt light and airy, as if I had broken free from the constraints of gravity. Every cell was jubilant, undergoing some kind of wondrous transformation and reorganization.
Chen Yuan could clearly feel, or rather, perceive, the earth-shattering changes taking place inside his body.
45 times... 50 times... 60 times... The power surged like a tidal wave, the speed broke through physiological limits one after another, and the sensory world became clearer than ever before.
The dust floating in the air, the faint energy fluctuations in the distance, and the conversations of the people around me all seemed so close.
When the critical point of 100 times is exceeded...
Just as Chen Yuan's physical abilities broke through the hundredfold mark, he felt as if his consciousness had been pulled into an absolute dark realm.
It is not nothingness, but a realm of shadows filled with infinite possibilities.
Source potential awakening: Shadow control.
Essence: Manipulating and integrating into all areas where light is dim or absent, harnessing the power of shadow.
With the ability to develop stealth capabilities, one can achieve near-perfect concealment of optics, heat, and life signals in any shadow, becoming an elusive afterimage when moving.
Shadow Weapon Creation: Can materialize shadow energy and condense it into extremely sharp cold weapons, but cannot create firearms, and even if it can, it cannot unleash their power.
Shadow Travel: Chen Yuan can instantly teleport between connected shadow areas over short distances.
Domain prototype: Creates a small area with extremely high shadow density, weakening the perception and speed of enemies within the area.
With a slight thought, Chen Yuan's arm sank silently into the shadows of the wall beside him, as if submerged in water.
"His abilities are truly amazing," Chen Yuan thought to himself.
Evolution has not stopped; physical fitness is still rapidly improving.
One hour later, it broke through the 150-fold critical point.
At this moment, a completely different, more profound and mysterious feeling emerged.
Chen Yuan felt that his connection with the surrounding space had become incredibly clear, as if the space was no longer an untouchable background, but a physical object that could be perceived and even influenced.
Source potential awakening: Space system.
