Peng Ran Xin Dong

Chapter 444 A Solitary Journey

The overwhelming destructive energy descended upon the island like a sun!

The unavoidable giant light beam cannon pierced directly through the island and its surrounding sea, forming a pure energy light beam field, like a stabilizer, thrusting straight into the ocean.

Everything within the energy field, whether mechanical creatures, the island itself, or even the seawater, was completely dissolved.

In the sky, the Miracle Thunderhawk, which had launched the giant cannon, was no longer visible.

This mysterious Black Star experimental technology island had completely vanished from the planet in an unparalleled energy explosion.

When Su Fei Zhang led his team members to the location of the explosion,

Only surging waves remained on the surface of the sea; there was no island to be found.

"Are you sure the explosion site was here?" Su Fei Zhang asked doubtfully.

Shen Jing Ming was also a bit confused. If a weapon with immense destructive power was tested, there should be some trace left behind.

Yet, the sea level here was abnormally turbulent, as if it had just experienced a catastrophe.

Xian Wang Chuan said faintly, "Little Shen, can't you feel it? The space here was torn apart, as if someone had used a unique spatial ability."

Shen Jing Ming did indeed feel the "temporal scar" left after the spatial tear had healed, something only those with unique spatial abilities could sense.

However, Shen Jing Ming leaned more towards the idea that the massive explosion earlier had torn space apart.

Just as everyone was searching around,

Shen Jing Ming and Xian Wang Chuan suddenly felt a familiar chill.

Xian Wang Chuan immediately shouted, "Attention! Something's coming!!"

A dark crack suddenly tore open in the sky.

The crack widened from both sides, with surging, serrated edges, eventually forming an oval-shaped spatial giant hole.

Just as everyone was preparing to face an unknown technological enemy,

The Miracle Thunderhawk shot out rapidly from the spatial giant hole. Before its dorsal fin had even fully emerged, the spatial giant hole suddenly vanished, neatly shaving off a small section of the mech's dorsal fin.

"Gu Ya!" Xian Wang Chuan shouted with joy.

Everyone then realized that Gu Ya could now perform unique spatial abilities smoothly.

"Whoa, you guys missed the main event," Gu Ya said excitedly. "There was an island here, covering thousands of square kilometers. I blew it up with one shot."

"But why are you all so surprised? So many people showed up."

Li Fang laughed heartily, "The distress signal from Xian Xia's strongest War God is bound to attract attention, hahahaha! We all wanted to see you defeated!"

"Say something more auspicious. Gu Ya could never be defeated," Liu Feng laughed.

Gu Ya said softly to Ye Ying, "You go back with them."

"What are you planning again? You're not taking me?" Ye Ying asked in surprise.

Gu Ya gripped Ye Ying's hand and whispered, "I can already use my unique spatial ability, and ordinary dangers are no longer a threat to me."

"It would be very dangerous for you if you followed me. Be good, go back with them."

"I'm going to Hui Ye City alone."

Seeing that Gu Ya's mind was made up, Ye Ying didn't argue and nodded affirmatively, "Be careful on your journey. I'll wait for you at home."

Gu Ya stood up, hugged Ye Ying, summoned his exoskeleton armor, and walked into the unique spatial domain alone.

Ye Ying sat back in the pilot's seat and said in imitation of Gu Ya's tone, "Alright everyone, I've disappointed you. Let's head back now."

Ye Ying's voice, transmitted through the Miracle Thunderhawk's communicator, reached the ears of her comrades, sounding like Gu Ya's voice.

Xian Wang Chuan immediately guessed it was Ye Ying speaking, but he didn't break the illusion and chimed in, "Yes, yes, everyone heard it. Our general is giving orders. Home, home!"

The mechs surrounded the Miracle Thunderhawk and majestically returned towards Xian Xia.

After they had gone far, a small unique spatial gateway reopened in the sky.

Gu Ya, clad in his exoskeleton armor, slowly flew out of the spatial gateway, gazing at his comrades who had become mere specks of light in the distance.

He murmured, "Wait for my good news in Xian Xia."

Then, Gu Ya summoned a new Black Star mech and flew towards Hui Ye City.

This island was one of Hui Ye City's important experimental frontiers, where all dangerous experiments were sent.

During their earlier exploration, Gu Ya and Ye Ying had discovered some secret technologies there.

This included human modification techniques and human-machine fusion techniques.

In this battle, Gu Ya was surprised to encounter technology that transformed flesh and blood into machines, similar to Xu Jie's.

It seemed there were many more horrifying things within Black Star.

"Fortunately, I crippled Xu Jie's abilities when we were underground. If he had made it to the surface and was introduced into any country, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"As for those mysterious stone tablets, they are merely scattered fragments of extraterrestrial technology."

"Xu Jie was bewitched by those unknown creatures and guarded the stone tablets as treasures. In reality, he was protecting nothing."

"Currently, Black Star remains the biggest threat. As for those unknown extraterrestrial creatures, they will be considered later."

Gu Ya confirmed his objective and immediately set off for Hui Ye City.

If he rashly broke in and caused a disturbance, even with the unparalleled power of the Bo Wei Divine Cannon, he wouldn't be able to withstand the siege of thousands of enemy mechs.

Even if he could hide in his unique spatial domain, Black Star could still use this as an excuse to make demands on Xian Xia.

At that time, with Black Star's focus directed at Xian Xia, the long-range firepower of those ultra-large mechs, even from thousands of kilometers away, could pose a significant threat to Xian Xia.

"Xian Xia is my home, but this home has become tainted."

"The upper echelons are doing their utmost to protect their ruling position, attempting to maintain the status quo. This is understandable."

"But a country like this is insufficient to change the global landscape, let alone lead all of humanity."

"The road ahead is still long."

"The occurrence of one event often triggers several others."

Gu Ya murmured, looking at the empty pilot seat beside him.

He suddenly realized that on his path to realizing his ideals, he was often alone.

Even his beloved Ye Ying had to be temporarily left behind under the guise of protection.

Gu Ya remembered when he was a child, his parents were busy with work and always left him at home for the entire day.

This also forged his self-reliant nature.

"Always challenge the impossible; even if you lack the ability, you must forge a path in the face of mortal danger."

Gu Ya recalled the male protagonists he had read about in online novels – all possessed extraordinary skills, high combat power, and powerful cheat abilities to defeat all enemies.

Gu Ya had also fantasized about being like those protagonists, able to resolve matters completely before embarking on the next adventure.

But the current situation was like being trapped in a quagmire called "the world," with many things holding him back.

To carve out his own path in this world was akin to moving forward in a swamp, shifting his legs in quicksand, or climbing a sheer cliff.

Was this not also a kind of predicament?

Moreover, there were countless unknown technological dangers ahead. Who knew what world-destroying entities were lurking in Hui Ye City?

This path, since he had chosen it, he could only persevere until the end, until he saw what lay at its conclusion.

Whether the end was a dead end or a breathtaking landscape, he had to venture forth.

Even if it was a dead end, he had to forcefully carve a path towards the future!

Gu Ya strengthened his resolve, looked ahead, and a tiny black dot appeared on the distant sea.

"Hui Ye City, I'm coming."
