Stronger with More Jobs-Chapter 376 - 212: Facing Nature as a Mortal

"Go."

Fang Qingyu’s voice was calm, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.

That was the afterglow of excitement.

He pulled Jiang Wei along, not heading towards a safe point, but instead striding towards the most violent and harshest area within the "Abyss."

...

An hour later.

Fang Qingyu’s gaze pierced through the violent wind and rain, locking firmly onto the area shrouded by an even denser wall of purple thunderstorm clouds in the distance.

That was precisely the direction of the "Thunderstorm Cloud Sea" core.

"Let’s do it!"

Fang Qingyu’s voice was hoarse, carrying a determination almost fanatical.

No Qi Blood was activated, no Thunder Shock Escape Shadow was executed.

Instead, like a true mortal struggling forward in the wind and rain.

He stepped forward, against the suffocating gale and pouring rain, treading on the muddy, slippery charred rocky ground.

Towards that boiling hell-like Thunder Purgatory.

Step!

By step!

Pressing forward with difficulty yet unyielding determination!

With each step, the cold rain and rubble made Fang Qingyu acutely feel the hardness and slipperiness of the earth.

With each step, the ferocious hurricane was like an invisible giant hand, tearing at his body, trying to overthrow him.

With each step, the omnipresent electric charge in the air brought a constant prickling and burning sensation to his skin.

Qi Blood silent.

Qi Force dormant.

Golden Body concealed.

At this moment, Fang Qingyu was a mortal walking on the edge of the abyssal purgatory!

Jiang Wei’s small figure followed alongside.

Always steadily following in the wind and rain.

Her clear big eyes occasionally turned to Fang Qingyu’s side profile, washed by the rain but still as hard as steel.

No expression on her little face, just the slight movement of her cheeks as she sucked on a lollipop.

The two trudged through the storm with difficulty.

Target clear.

The core of the Thunderstorm Cloud Sea!

There, the most violent thunder on earth resided.

There, lava capable of consuming everything.

There, hurricanes tearing apart all.

There... was the proving ground Fang Qingyu chose.

Nearly 8 hours later.

When Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei finally reached the edge of the Thunderstorm Cloud Sea’s core, that familiar, colossal ring-shaped basin seemed hammered by divine forces multiple times.

The scene before them was incomparably more violent than the last time.

The basin’s center, the sky seemed utterly collapsed.

The dense leaden clouds were completely shattered, dispersed by an indescribable might!

In its place was an entire swath of a terrifying thunderstorm cloud sea boiling like purple magma.

The clouds were so dense they appeared solid, displaying a harrowing dark purple hue.

Countless thick, ancient, serpent-like, pale-white lightning bolts, erratic and frenzied, fiercely struck from the clouds!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM——!!!

The deafening thunder roared endlessly, as if millions of massive drums were beating all around!

The earth trembled violently under the relentless horrific pounding!

The center of the basin had long turned into a glaring sea of lava.

Scorching magma erupted by the thunder into tens of meters high tidal waves.

The air was saturated with an intense ozone scent, sulfur, and the burned smell of rock turning to vapor instantly.

The fierce electric charges formed substantial purple arcs, like swarms of wildly dancing snakes, recklessly leaping and exploding on the basin’s edge, in the air!

Just standing at the basin’s edge.

Fang Qingyu felt his blood nearly frozen by the omnipresent thunder’s oppression.

His skin screamed with burning pain and numbness.

Each strand of hair stood erect.

Breathing became extraordinarily difficult.

As if countless invisible giant hands were throttling his throat. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

This was the majesty of heaven and earth!

This was the primal fury Fang Qingyu yearned for!

"Wait here for me."

Fang Qingyu’s voice was hoarse but carried an unquestionable power.

Jiang Wei tilted her little face, glanced at the apocalyptic Thunder Purgatory, then at Fang Qingyu’s magma-like will in his eyes.

Lightly nodded, silently retreated behind a relatively sheltered giant rock on the basin’s edge.

Fang Qingyu took one last look at where Jiang Wei was hidden.

Suddenly turned his head!

The melted gold-like eyes locked firmly on the boiling molten thunder sea in the basin’s center!

No hesitation!

No delay!

Like a moth into the flame!

With legs stepping out!

Towards the source of destruction!

Towards where thunders densest!

Where lava most boiling!

Where the storm’s core was!

He sprinted wildly!

BOOM——!!!

Almost as if infuriated by the defiance of this insignificant being!

A lightning bolt many times thicker, blindingly bright!

Carrying the supreme will of heaven’s judgment!

Like a Divine Punishment Spear!

Instantly tore through the boiling purple thunderstorm cloud sea!

With an aura of destroying all!

Towards that tiny figure running wildly through the storm and lava!

Fiercely struck down!

The speed so fast!

Beyond mortal thought!

Fang Qingyu’s pupils shrunk suddenly!

That blinding white light engulfed his entire vision instantly!

The cold breath of death like a Poisonous Snake, instantly enveloped his heart!

All muscles instinctively screamed, trying to activate the dormant Qi Blood, awakening the concealed Golden Body!

But Fang Qingyu suppressed it resolutely!

With the mortal body!

Facing it head on!

BOOM——!!!!

Deafening explosion!

The terrifying shockwave carried rocks and scorching plasma, sweeping around like a tsunami!

Fang Qingyu’s figure was instantly submerged!

The blinding electric light and flying dust covered everything!

Moments later.

The electric light and dust slowly dissipated.

At the edge of a huge charred pit several meters in diameter.

A figure staggered and stood up.

It was Fang Qingyu!

His entire body charred black.

The combat suit vaporized the instant it met the lightning, revealing the similarly charred skin beneath!
