Chapter 186: The Vanishing Red Dot

Kaos took a deep breath, gathering Star Energy within his body, then suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled toward Blacklight.

At first, it was just a faint wisp of air.

But as he infused his own Yi Neng into it, that wisp of airflow began to grow faster and stronger, yet it remained as thin as a strand of silk.

Whoosh!

With a piercing, shrill screech, the compressed, high-speed airflow turned a strange milky white, wrapped in terrifying penetrating force as it shot instantly toward Blacklight’s chest.

This was Kaos’s ultimate move—a technique he had painstakingly developed, inspired by the Qiang Qiang Yuanli.

Wind is a formless, flowing thing—mainly gentle by nature, though it can turn violent like a tornado or storm, but by its nature, Kaos found it hard to create a truly deadly attack.

But fortunately, Kaos hadn’t intended this move to kill, only to disrupt his opponent.

Yi Neng has its limits.

Even someone as strong as Mo Yuan, before his perfect awakening, could only use one copied Yi Neng at a time.

This student, who could decompose Yi Neng, should be no different.

He could easily decompose and absorb one attribute of Yi Neng.

But what about two?

When the compressed airflow struck Blacklight’s chest, the glowing light flickered. Having to deal with both Telekinesis and the compressed airflow at once, sweat dripped down his forehead as he growled under his breath, barely managing to decompose and absorb both at the same time.

“You’ve found my weakness, but don’t think this alone is enough to defeat me!” Blacklight roared.

“Oh? Then let’s see your limit! Wind is a flowing form, it means endless change!” Kaos’s lips curled up in a faint smile.

If two types of attacks couldn’t defeat him, then what about three—or four?

He clapped his hands, and the airflow around Blacklight began to surge—not to attack this time, but to extract.

Kaos used his Yi Neng to draw away all the air around Blacklight, forming an absolute Zhi Kong.

And this time, blacklight couldn’t even stop the attack from happening.

Because the Yi Neng wasn’t attacking him directly, but all the air surrounding him.

His face turned instantly red, and the changing pressure inside and out made his body ache unbearably.

The dizziness from suffocation left him unable to concentrate or control his Yi Neng.

It seemed…he had already lost.

“Awesome, Lao Kai, you can even do that!”

“That was so cool, that line!”

“I’ve followed ten episodes, and Lao Kai finally gets his moment!”

“Lao Xi is stunned!”

“Xiao Xi: So, can I just lie down now?”

This guy…

Yun Ruoxi glanced at Kaos in surprise.

In the protagonist group, Kaos was a rather special presence.

He was very charismatic, with remarkable combat instincts and talent—second only to Lin Zhen.

Yet, in the original storyline, he always served as the one to highlight Lin Zhen’s brilliance, constantly being suppressed by him.

Time and again, he’d easily defeat Lin Zhen in internal battles, but when facing external foes, it was always a miserable loss or a narrow win.

That made Yun Ruoxi somewhat underestimate him in her heart.

She figured if she hadn’t come, he’d definitely lose terribly.

But now, it seemed, even without her, against these two, he might not lose at all.

In fact, if it was just Blacklight, his chances of victory were absolutely not low.

I underestimated him!

Yun Ruoxi thought to herself, clenching her right fist tightly. Seizing the moment when Blacklight’s Telekinesis control weakened dramatically from suffocation, she unleashed a wild surge of Telekinesis that pushed his absorption to its very limits.

A “pop” like a bursting balloon sounded.

The black flowing light on his body instantly exploded into splatters of black liquid, evaporating into black gas that slowly dissipated.

And beside him, Zong Yilang had his limbs twisted off by her directly, tossed aside like garbage.

“Well done, Ajin Brother!”

Yun Ruoxi floated down from above, stretching out her right hand to pin the now powerless pair firmly to the ground.

“I really didn’t expect it would be you here.” Kaos smiled, glancing at Blacklight and Zong Yilang. “Let’s eliminate them both.”

“Mm.” Yun Ruoxi nodded.

But before she could act, another explosion sounded in the distance.

They both instinctively turned to look.

Countless vines whipped forth from the explosion site, twisting together like mating vipers, forming a Vine Giant dozens of meters tall.

It leaned on a massive tree, letting out a roar:

“Earthworms, how dare you destroy my Giant Stone City—go to hell!”

No sooner had the words left its mouth than it stomped down heavily.

Boom!

Vines spread from its foot in all directions, writhing through the earth, smashing through every wooden house along their path.

A group of Huang Elf were instantly pierced through the chest by the vines.

Like corn kernels strung on a skewer at a barbecue shop, they were flung away by the whipping vines.

“Guan Weitu! If you’ve got guts, come at me!”

Another furious roar echoed, and the earth heaved up, forming a Rock Giant of equal height that charged into battle.

“So this is the extraordinary power of this planet? Controlling plants and earth?” Kaos was muttering when Yun Ruoxi suddenly exclaimed, “This is bad!”

He turned hurriedly.

The black liquid, which had evaporated into gas earlier, had, while the two of them weren’t paying attention, recondensed into liquid and dripped near Blacklight and Zong Yilang, forming a person-sized black sphere.

Yun Ruoxi frowned, unleashing a surge of Telekinesis to crush the black sphere in an instant.

But it was too late—the sphere was empty.

“Ajin Brother, sorry, I let them get away.” Yun Ruoxi looked apologetic.

Kaos shook his head. “What’s there to apologize for? If anything, I should thank you for saving me. But let’s save the thanks for later—this city’s getting crazier, we’d better get out of here.”

“Mm.” Yun Ruoxi nodded.

Kaos glanced down at his wristwatch. With every bit of geographic data they input into the Zhongduan, their map grew more accurate, now able to show fairly precise distances.

Other than Yun Ruoxi, the nearest red dot on the map was about two hundred kilometers away—not too far.

“Let’s head here,” Kaos said.

“Alright.”

Yun Ruoxi swept her eyes over the map, then suddenly let out a surprised sound.

“What is it?” Kaos asked, puzzled.

“Ajin Brother, look at the map—count the red dots. Isn’t there something off about the number?” Yun Ruoxi said, panic rising.

The red dot count was off?

Kaos’s heart lurched as he quickly looked at the wristwatch’s map.

One, two, three…

Yun Ruoxi was right.

At this moment, only five red dots remained on the map, and one of them had vanished in the last ten minutes.

What was going on?

According to Lin Zhen, his Xin Hao Fasheqi was powerful, with a unique frequency—even the battle camp would have trouble tracking it.

As long as they were still on Taixing, they’d receive the signal.

So could it be that, during their battle just now, one of them had already been eliminated?
