Chapter 28: Realm Tearing
As he watched Zhou Zhiguo's true nature gradually revealed, Huo Tian's heart became increasingly calm.
He took out the Tang sword and slowly pulled it out. The blade flashing with cold light reflected Huo Tian's cold eyes.
"It's been five years, it's time for an explanation."
"Hehehe... Captain Huo, you're really persistent. Five years for humans is nothing to us, but you actually caught me twice in such a short time. It's a pity that last time, your son died for you. I wonder if this time..."
Swish——
The knife flashed, and Zhou Zhiguo's head, still with its mouth open, fell to the ground.
Huo Tian slowly sheathed his sword and looked at the head rolling on the ground with cold eyes.
Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly felt a terrible force eroding the entire building.
And behind him, there was also some strange rustling sound.
"Captain Huo Tian."
The head that fell to the ground was looking at Huo Tian with a ferocious smile.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave. Now that you're here, have a cup of tea."
Huo Tian turned around and looked at the headless body crawling up from the ground, and sneered.
"It really is a monster."
The next moment, endless darkness began to spread, eventually enveloping the entire building in shadow.
"Boundary, expand, kill all living things."
In the end, what Huo Tian heard was Zhou Zhiguo's voice which was gradually becoming distorted.
"......cholera."
Huo Tian widened his eyes, looked at the endless darkness in front of him and the figure gradually wriggling in the darkness, and smiled helplessly.
"My luck is still so bad."
......
At the same time, Li Muhan finally ran back to the apartment. The car was still parked there, but Huo Tian was gone.
He rushed into the building and climbed to the fifth floor in one breath. When he kicked open Zhou Zhiguo's door, he found that everything was normal, but there was no Zhou Zhiguo or Huo Tian.
“They’re not here.”
Li Muhan spoke into the headset.
"The captain and Zhou Zhiguo were not there, and there were no signs of a fight at the scene."
Lin Ziyu suddenly remembered something and said to Li Muhan.
"The captain must have used the Special Management Bureau's boundary decree to isolate the entire apartment from the current interface!"
"Speak human language."
Li Muhan felt a little helpless as he didn't quite understand the professional terms of the Special Management Bureau.
"This is a prop used by the Special Management Bureau when clearing out aliens! You can think of it as setting up this prop. The entire area will be separated into a forged area created by the prop! Except for aliens and Special Management Bureau personnel, everyone will be excluded! This is also to prevent ordinary humans from being involved in the battle between the Special Management Bureau and aliens!"
Li Muhan was dumbfounded.
"What should I do now? Is there any way to break the boundary decree?"
Su Xue's voice came from the headphones.
"Brother Mu Han, look around to see if there are any command flags. There are five in total. As long as you remove all five command flags, you can break the boundary decree.
"I'll try my best."
Li Muhan hurried downstairs again to look for something similar to a command flag.
But after running around several times, he was out of breath and still couldn't find a command flag.
It is easy to imagine that Huo Tian must have made sufficient preparations in order to face Zhou Zhiguo alone. He knew very well that what he had to do was not only to carry out the mission, but also to use the name of the mission to resolve past personal grudges.
Otherwise, he could have reported what he found wrong with Zhou Zhiguo, but he chose not to do so because he was afraid.
I am very scared. What if there is no result again like before?
He didn't know if he could accept such an ending again.
Just when he returned to Zhou Zhiguo's room at a loss, Lin Ziyu's voice came from the headphones.
"Li Muhan! I've requested special support from the engineering corps. They should be here soon."
"It's too late."
Although he didn't know why he had this feeling, he had a vague feeling that by the time the engineering team arrived to break the boundary decree, it might be too late.
"I remember the first time I lost control and expanded my realm, Xia Yue used her realm to tear apart my power."
As Li Muhan spoke, he mobilized the strength in his body.
"Li Muhan? What are you doing? Don't act rashly before the engineering team arrives."
Yin Qi's voice also came from the headset, but it was only a short sentence and was quickly drowned out by the noisy fighting and cursing.
"I haven't officially joined the Special Management Bureau."
Li Muhan slowly opened his eyes, a golden light flashed in his pupils, and then the necklace on his neck also reacted, quickly turning into a black silk thread that wrapped around half of his face, forming a black mask.
"Aren't interns just there to take the blame?"
Lin Ziyu seemed to have sensed something was wrong with Huo Tian's voice after it was covered by the mask, and he became a little anxious. Although he was also worried about Huo Tian, Li Muhan was a new member after all. If something happened to him, it would be difficult for Team 7 to explain to the headquarters.
"You, wait for me, Li Muhan!"
Li Muhan no longer paid attention to Lin Ziyu, but slowly activated the demonic power in his body.
"The realm is opened... Ten thousand thunders lead to killing..."
In an instant, the entire building, no, all the lights in the nearby 1km block began to flicker, and then the household appliances began to make a crackling sound, as if the electricity was being drawn away by something.
Lin Ziyu seemed to be still yelling something in the headphones, but Li Muhan could no longer hear him.
He tried hard to recall the feeling when his realm was torn apart, but because he was not very conscious at that time and it was basically Bal who was controlling him, it was very difficult for him to do what Xia Yue did at that time.
Lightning gathered on his body again and again, but he was like a gun that couldn't find its target. After several attempts, Li Muhan felt a headache.
He seemed to hear Baal mocking him in the dilapidated palace.
"Li Muhan."
"Shut up."
Li Muhan heard the voice in the headphones and thought that Lin Ziyu came to persuade him to wait for support again. He was about to unplug the headphones when he suddenly heard the voice continue.
"Concentrate your attention and use your realm to tear apart another realm. You cannot expand it completely, but rather shrink it to a point."
The voice was soft and quiet. It wasn't Lin Ziyu, Su Xue, or Yin Qi...
"Director Lin?"
Li Muhan recognized that it was Lin Ze's voice. He was slightly stunned, then continued to close his eyes and began to recall what Lin Ze had just said.
"The so-called realm is just a manifestation of power. The characteristics of the Xian Nation allow them to create an environment that goes unnoticed. Now that their power has increased, they have brought Captain Huo Tian into their realm. If you want to break through their realm, you only have two options. One, do what Xia Yue did to you before and use the more powerful realm to directly devour the weaker one. Two, compress the power of the realm into a point and then tear it apart."
Lin Ze seemed to have taken over control of the scene from Lin Ziyu.
"Su Xue, Yin Qi, you continue to carry out the diversionary mission and ensure the safety of the hostages in the old warehouse. Li Muhan, as for you..."
Although Lin Ze's voice was gentle, it gave Li Muhan an indescribable sense of courage.
"Do what you want to do."
There was no need for Li Muhan to say anything more.
He unleashed his own boundaries and expanded them again, but this time, he compressed the feeling over and over again.
When a small ball finally formed in his heart, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Thousands of thunders lead to death!"
boom--
At this moment
Lightning fiercely split the dark sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder, and at the same time, a burst of angry curses came from downstairs and next door.
"Damn it! The voltage was unstable just now, and now there's a sudden thunderstorm. Are we going to survive?"
He ignored the dissatisfaction of these "neighbors". When he opened his eyes again, a space crack torn by lightning appeared in front of him.
From the depths of the Land of No Return, Huo Tian's familiar and majestic voice was first heard, then interrupted by an even stranger, more terrifying roar. This roar seemed to echo from the endless abyss, containing indescribable anger and coldness.
"Hey... you're really good at fighting. You've been acting like a grandson to me, and I thought you were such a wimp."
"Human!! You don't know what's good for you!! I spared your life years ago! How dare you come and die!! You're even more stupid than your idiotic son!"
"How dare you mention my son?! Did I give you face?!"
In the other space within the crack.
The Hun Kingdom, whose body is so huge that it looks like a giant ape, stands proudly here.
It resembled a mythical Titan, a giant beast that had escaped its bonds, its size too enormous to be looked at directly. Opposite it stood a man with an unremarkable appearance but a resolute expression, fighting to the death.
The man standing in front of him was holding a Tang sword as dark as the abyss of night tightly in his hand.
One of his arms was broken, and his tattered suit jacket was thrown aside. His shirt and half of his face were stained with blood.
His body was shaking a little, but he refused to fall down, and every wound on his body told of the brutality of the battle just now.
