Chapter 960 - Firework Mountain No More (2/2)
Oplan thought that Qin Feng was insinuating that he was the incapable S-tier that could not enter the geo heart. He was clearly upset but dared not chastise the man who had just forced back an SS-tier. Like Eye Devil, he could only exit bitterly.
“I have something else to attend to too. Goodbye.”
“I will leave first.”
The other S-tiers withdrew one after another. In the end, only Han Guangming and Fang Zhou stayed back.
“Hehe. I am too old for this. This type of labor suits you youngsters more. You two should work more.” Fang Zhou strolled away casually too after saying goodbye. Nonetheless, each step he took, despite seemingly unhurried, took him about a thousand meters away. In just a few flashes, his figure was no longer in sight.
“Forget it. I have never counted on them from the start.”
From the beginning, Han Guangming was here solely to shut the rift. In contrast, the others had arrived to see what benefits they could reap from this opportunity. Some even dreamt of hunting down the Void Locust Kaiser and harnessing the valuable materials on the beast.
In fact, his burden had been lessened considerably since Qin Feng was willing to stay and help. Furthermore, the latter had saved him the trouble of confronting Eye Devil himself!
Hence, Han Guangming’s attitude toward Qin Feng had changed a lot too. He could not have summoned three different types of S-tier ability. Not only that but he also did not have the confidence in forcing back Eye Devil.
Han Guangming believed that Qin Feng was destined to be different. There was no harm in befriending him now. Even though Qin Feng did not want to be part of his faction, at least the relationship today could flower into a rewarding collaboration in the future.
Han Guangming set his focus straight and got to work. The land began to quiver. Beneath the Firework Mountain, the city that was cut in half was moved to a safe distance under his earth ability.
Then, a giant landslide crashed down from the mountain and covered the exposed lava.
Qin Feng triggered his ability too. He might be not as skilled and resourceful as Han Guangming in terms of earth abilities, but moving rocks and stones required little finesse. The mountain literally flattened out to cover the giant crack.
This place has turned into a plain now. Firework Mountain had been wiped out from the map.
After the finishing touch, Han Guangming returned to the Human Alliance, while Qin Feng decided to take care of the beast wave before leaving.
The Void Locust Kaiser had come to open a giant rift near Firework Mountain because this place was the closest to the core. After Qin Feng fended off Eye Devil, a lot of S-tiers from the Dark Coalition had actually come to survey the location. They, of course, had the means to avoid the surveillance satellite. But after digging deep, they had failed to detect any energy flow. Even the mantle layer had mysteriously vanished.
The strata were ever-changing. A lot of people believed that the geo heart was the crystal core left behind by the Immortal. Thus, it was probably conscious and could protect itself. After its access point was exposed, the core perhaps sensed the threat and promptly removed it.
Qin Feng was relieved when he heard the news. His realm seemed safe, for now.
***
The scary beast wave was frozen in winter weather. A few A-tier beast emperors fled frantically. However, even the rift that led them here had been iced. They had no way to run.
Abruptly, they were killed by a bursting sword radiance.
The giant bodies collapsed to the ground. The flesh and blood fused with Qin Feng and propelled his physique to another level.
A3-tier.
At this point, Qin Feng possessed S-tier internal force, A6-tier conscious energy, and A3-tier physique. After his mass hunting, the beast wave that wrecked the Amazon Alliance had mostly settled down.
After he killed the Void Locust Kaiser, this timeline must have branched toward another direction again. Qin Feng knew in this coming year, the number of rifts around Earth would grow exponentially. This was perhaps a warning sign of pre-collapse.
Now, it was time to eliminate these threats.
