I Can Travel between Two Worlds-Chapter 176 - 123: Martial Arts Puppet Self-Destructs, Ancient Ruins Revealed!
Lin Chen, who was digging underground, stopped his movements.
At this moment, he was already two thousand five hundred feet deep underground.
Upon receiving the news, Lin Chen glanced at the positions of Long Ba and Feng Jiu.
In his prior arrangements, both Long Ba and Feng Jiu had already left Jade Belt City.
Moreover, half of Jade Belt City had been destroyed earlier...
Therefore, even if the micro nuclear bomb on his body self-detonated, it wouldn’t affect the remaining mortals and cultivators.
Thus, Lin Chen ordered without hesitation:
"Initiate self-destruction!"
After speaking, Lin Chen continued to use the Earth Escape Technique to burrow underground.
After all, the Martial Arts Puppet only carried a micro nuclear bomb.
Even with the two puppets combined, it was only a yield of twenty kilotons.
Furthermore, no matter how large the yield, a nuclear bomb two thousand five hundred feet underground wouldn’t make any noise.
"I have to act quickly... If this nuclear bomb fails to kill that Ghost-Eyed Old Monster."
"He will then search the entire city for my whereabouts..."
Lin Chen thought silently and accelerated his digging.
...
Meanwhile, south of Jade Belt City.
BOOM!!!
With the two Martial Arts Puppets as the core, indescribable high temperatures and bright fireballs rushed in all directions.
This fireball continuously expanded in the air... its surface showing uneven black flares.
As the fireball exploded, the whole area outside Jade Belt City seemed to fall into a true apocalypse!
Within a few miles in radius, all trees, creatures, buildings...
Melted instantly and finally vaporized into steam under the high temperature, drifting into the air.
BOOM!!
After the loud roar, a bright mushroom cloud blossomed magnificently.
The terrifying force caused the ground to start collapsing...
After the raging flames, the barren mountains began to topple, and large pits emerged on the ground.
Weeds vaporized and disappeared, and the soil was charred to black under the intense heat.
Finally...
After an unknown amount of time, the entire air fell silent.
Half of Jade Belt City, along with thirteen miles outside the city, had no living creatures left...
Fearful radiation, centering from the explosion point, swept wildly in all directions.
Time seemed to freeze.
The nearby Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Ghost-Exorcising Sect and the Puppet Hall didn’t have time to utter a cry.
Even if they wielded their Protective True Essence, they turned to ash under the incredible heat exceeding millions of degrees.
Long Ba and Feng Jiu completed their mission as Martial Arts Puppets.
No trace remained...
Until several two-hours later.
A figure crawled up from the ruins on the ground, as black as charcoal, with skin festering...
The once tender baby face was now unrecognizable due to the immense power.
Within the explosion’s radius, the Ghost-eyed Child was the only surviving creature.
At the moment the nuclear bomb exploded, he held up his Protective True Essence and activated a secret technique to allow a ghost to possess him...
With various trump cards and methods, he barely managed to survive.
But the price he paid was devastating...
"Cough, cough cough..."
The Ghost-eyed Child spat out a mouthful of foul blood, feeling his whole body burning with pain.
Not to mention his internal organs being displaced, he even felt his Divine Soul was numbed by the shock.
"What... just what kind of Magical Treasure is this..."
"Could it be, could it really be the legendary... Celestial Thunder?"
The Ghost-eyed Child was overwhelmed with shock and horror. He never imagined that these two puppets would actually hold such a heaven-defying Magical Treasure!
What is Celestial Thunder?
In fact, the Ghost-eyed Child had never seen one, but he had heard that Celestial Thunder was a powerful Magical Treasure refined by a supreme Great Power.
Its power was thousands of times that of the Five Thunders!
Even a Nascent Soul True Man would have to retreat if they encountered Celestial Thunder, with the risk of falling if they were not careful...
"Celestial... Celestial Thunder, terrifying to such an extent?"
"Cough cough..."
The Ghost-eyed Child spat out another mouthful of foul blood, feeling his body about to fall apart.
At the moment of the explosion, the horrifying power almost instantly engulfed his Protective True Essence.
Fortunately, he had the Protective True Essence, and after nearly exhausting his True Essence Magical Power, he barely survived.
Even so, the price he paid was tremendously severe...
He consumed several life-saving trump cards, accumulated over hundreds of years.
The three ghosts he drove, two dead and one wounded.
Only one Ghost Pill Stage ghost was retrieved in time, barely alive but gravely injured and sleeping...
"Damn it, suffering so much loss... what about the next thing that needs to be done?"
After consuming a pill to restore his magical power, the Ghost-eyed Child painfully tore the flesh from his body.
He frowned slightly, looking at everything that had experienced nuclear annihilation around him.
"This place seems... a bit off... it’s like something is corroding my life..."
The Ghost-eyed Child frowned slightly, quickly leaving the city outskirts, returning to Jade Belt City.
Though he didn’t know what nuclear radiation was, he could feel it damaging his body significantly.
After consuming several bottles of pills, the Ghost-eyed Child barely stabilized his injuries.
The anger in his eyes was now undisguised...
"Damn rat, he must still be hiding within the city..."
"Daring to use Celestial Thunder on me... I will devour your soul whole..."
A bloodthirsty glint flashed in the Ghost-eyed Child’s eyes.
"This won’t do, that place is about to open... How can I enter in my current state?"
"And the Ten Thousand Ghosts Bewitching Array has been mostly destroyed, I must recover quickly..."
The Ghost-eyed Child murmured.
He had no time to search for Lin Chen; at this moment, he had to preserve his own life.
Thus, the Ghost-eyed Child sought a safe place, and escaped there to recover.
...
The night was silent.
Outside Jade Belt City, several thousand feet underground, Lin Chen was still diligently digging tunnels.
