Chapter 1035: Chapter 997: Causing a Sensation, Who is it Really?_2
As if purified, even the lightning arcs completely dissipated, leaving none behind.
The tens of millions of people awaiting death, the warriors on the city walls, all the high-level martial artists, spirit martialists, stood with their mouths agape, looking up at the sky.
This scene would surely never be forgotten for as long as they lived.
The Thousand Paths of Purple-Gold Thunder Dragon, covering the sky and blocking the sun, had the power to destroy heaven and earth.
Yet the moment the young apparition made his move, in an instant, were they all just evaporated from the world?
What kind of terrifying power was this, what awe-inspiring might?
"Rumble—"
However, everything was far from over.
Above the head of the young apparition appeared orbs resembling golden suns.
Some were ascending flames.
Some were sweeping cold ice.
Others were flickering sword shadows, bursting blood qi, enduring Dao Yun...
There were easily over a hundred golden orbs, each seemingly containing an extremely refined path.
They all shrank simultaneously, entering the young apparition's dantian, more precisely, into that sparkling crystalline seed.
Inside the seed, as if it held a Mustard Seed Na Sumi, contained a small world of its own.
It accepted all the golden orbs.
In an instant, the seed burst forth with the most dazzling light.
It was at this moment that the young apparition transitioned from sitting cross-legged to standing up.
His insignificant figure radiated light that illuminated heaven and earth, a nine-colored glow. He looked indifferently, seemingly nonchalantly, at the sky and swung his arm.
With one punch, the wind and thunder ceased.
The clouds scattered,
The sky opened!
The light from the punch, containing boundless might, dispersed the vast clouds that had spread far and wide; they were instantly shattered into pieces.
Gone like smoke on the wind.
The dark night sky appeared, with a blood-red crescent moon.
The astonishing light from the punch lit up the night sky, dazzling the tens of millions of spectators, martial artists, spirit martialists.
"Could this be achieved by human strength?"
"How is that possible?"
"This..."
"Gone, just like that? A disaster so terrifying, dispelled with a single punch?"
Cries of disbelief nearly rose from every corner of Dajing City, filled with incredulity.
After the shock subsided, intense and fervent cheers erupted.
"We're saved, we're saved! Hahaha!"
Men hugged men, or men hugged women, overcome with emotion, weeping with joy.
From death to life, their emotions rollercoastered, to say the least, or more accurately, from hell to heaven.
And all the credit for this miraculous salvation was attributed to that splendid apparition above.
They looked up at the apparition, guessing at his identity, their hearts filled with reverence and admiration.
Meanwhile, within the courtyard of a villa inside the city, a group of enchantingly beautiful women had gathered. They were initially pulsing with energy, ready to take action to help Luo Tiance against the disaster, even at the risk of revealing their identities.
The emergence of the young apparition, however, made them all stop their movements.
"This... so fierce?"
"Is that Brother Yu?"
"Impossible, Brother Yu is so young in this life, how could he possess such world-shocking power."
The beauties were dumbfounded, shocked to their cores.
They had assumed Luo Yu would be rather weak at this point; little did they know he was still overwhelmingly powerful, shattering the calamity itself.
With a punch that shattered the darkness.
"It's my husband!"
"Husband, I would recognize him even if it was just a shadow, even if only a single part of him remained."
"A single part???"
"Who said that, are you feeling frisky?"
Beneath the blood-colored moonlight, a stunning girl with silver hair and purple pupils gazed at the young apparition in the sky, her eyes sparkling.
A pondering expression appeared on her snow-white, exquisite face.
"Husband's strength hasn't fully recovered yet; it's possible that this power was lent to him by an elder."
"That's likely!"
The disaster dissipated, and the crisis was averted.
The tens of millions of people plunged into an ecstatic mood, celebrating joyously.
However, at this moment, all eyes were focused on the figure in the sky, full of curiosity.
The Third-Rank Experts floating in the air all looked at the young apparition with reverence, not daring to utter a word for a while.
Because they were all too aware that if he could extinguish the disaster with a punch, a mere sneeze from him could easily kill them without any effort—too simple indeed.
How could they not be afraid?
Luo Tiance sheathed the State-Defending Divine Sword, then flew up, not too close.
With a respectful gesture toward the apparition, he said,
"Senior has saved the lives of Dajing by intervening amidst the thunderstorm."
"We are deeply grateful!"
The young phantom turned around, his facial features blurred, and his expression was unclear. He didn't speak for the longest time.
Luo Tiance found the figure more and more familiar, yet he didn't dare to associate it with his own grandson.
How could his grandson possibly possess such strength?
At that point, all claims about who the grandfather or grandson was became uncertain.
In the end, the young phantom suddenly burst into a brilliant light, causing everyone to instinctively close their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again.
The sky had plunged into darkness, empty and void.
Both the thunder and the young phantom had vanished, as if nothing had happened at all.
But everyone was simply unable to forget the events that had just unfolded. Their eardrums and eyes were still stinging, and their bodies were still tingling and stiff with numbness.
Luo Tiance was astounded, fixed in the air.
He hadn't expected the reclusive expert to be so indifferent; his words of gratitude had received no response at all.
The Third-Rank Experts gathered around.
"Director, who was that great expert just now?"
"Our Great Xia actually has such a terrifying presence?"
"Was that a god intervening just now? Too powerful."
At this moment, Luo Tiance's face was as composed as an old dog's, adopting a high and cold demeanor.
Inwardly, however, he was utterly baffled.
You're asking me?
Who should I ask?
As the foremost figure in Great Xia, he had never heard of such a fearsome existence within the Great Xia Realm.
Moreover, if he wasn't hallucinating, he remembered the starting point of the light seemed to be his family mansion?
"Director?"
The Third-Rank Experts were as curious as scratching cats in their hearts.
At the same time, they were exhilarated. If such an expert was the true hidden strength of Great Xia, that would be seriously impressive.
Even the resurgence of gods wouldn't be feared.
Luo Tiance looked at them expressionlessly.
"Disperse."
"Those healing should heal, others take care of the aftermath. Reconstruct the protective shield, replenish energy, and be vigilant against foreign forces seizing the opportunity to infiltrate, strengthen defenses."
"Have other bases send over a Third-Rank or higher expert to assist."
The powerhouses, without any explanation, all had looks of wanting to say more, and they seemed to want to continue to ask questions.
Luo Tiance gave them a stern glance.
"Obey the orders."
"Yes!"
"Understood, Director. This secret is something you've always kept to yourself, isn't it?"
The experts swiftly flew away.
Luo Tiance cursed inwardly, it was bullshit; he also had no idea which deity had intervened just now, but it was certain that their strength was beyond his ability to fathom.
Like the storm clouds, they were far beyond the level that the Power of Heaven and Earth of this realm could suppress.
Luo Tiance went straight to the United Front Work Department to handle the after-event processing.
Afterward, whether on the internet or among the public, the incident sparked intense debate.
Sadly, the thunderstorm had been too intense and had affected all electronic devices, leaving no footage of the young phantom.
"Why suddenly a natural disaster hit Da Jing in the dead of night?"
"Shock! A suspected divine presence in Great Xia!"
"Who, exactly, is he?"
As there was no video record, most foreign forces considered Great Xia to be boasting and creating rumors.
But the neighboring bases were half in doubt and half in belief.
Because even from a far distance, they could still sense the scenes of the black clouds pressing down on the city, the Brontosaurus overturning the heavens, and finally, the colorful radiance exploding.
Luo Family Mansion.
Like a ghost, Luo Tiance's figure suddenly appeared in Luo Yu's room.
Seeing the handsome young man sleeping soundly on the large bed, his breathing even, with the corners of his mouth turned up as if he were having a pleasant dream, Luo Tiance was speechless.
Well done!
The world's ending outside, and you're sleeping like the dead in here?
But he understood.
He knew his grandson's peculiar disorder; once asleep, no matter how much noise there was outside, he couldn't be awoken.
"Scared me to death, I almost really thought it was this kid's doing."
Luo Tiance let out a sigh of relief.
Then he laughed at his own speculation.
"How could it be?"
"My grandson's only eighteen, even with outside help, he couldn't possibly be more awesome than his own grandfather."
