In Antarctica, on a thousand-year-old ice sheet, the cold wind is like a knife.
Several figures dressed in top-of-the-line cold-weather gear were trudging desperately across the stark white snowfield, with the wreckage of snowmobiles still belching black smoke behind them.
The biting cold almost froze their minds, leaving only the instinct for survival.
They belong to a secret branch of the Chen family responsible for polar resource exploration.
Suddenly, a silvery-white dot appeared without warning in mid-air a hundred meters in front of them.
Undisturbed by wind and snow, without a sound, it seemed as if it had always been there.
The leader looked up in despair, only to see an invisible sword aura, almost blending into the wind and snow, flash by.
puff!puff!puff!
Three tiny blood flowers bloomed simultaneously between the three people's brows.
Scalding hot blood splattered onto the cold snow, instantly freezing into dazzling red ice.
Their bodies collapsed stiffly into the snow, their life force quickly swallowed by the eternal ice.
On the vast ice plain, only the howling wind remained, as if everything that had just happened had never occurred.
At the edge of the Mariana Trench, a small submarine disguised as a research vessel is silently descending, attempting to hide in the deepest darkness on Earth.
The Chen family has a core team responsible for deep-sea gene research, which is among them.
Inside the control room, the research director, dressed in a white lab coat, stared intently at the ever-increasing pressure readings, his back soaked with cold sweat.
"Faster! Dive into the deep sea, he can't possibly..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Puff puff puff puff...!
A series of barely audible sounds, like bubbles bursting, rang out simultaneously in the confined space inside the submarine!
In front of the control panel, in the laboratory, in the rest pod... all seven members of the Chen family, no matter what they were doing, suddenly froze!
A bizarre hole piercing through the skull appeared between the eyebrows of each person! Blood mixed with brain matter slowly flowed down.
The submarine lost control, the lights went out instantly, and only the flashing red malfunction lights on the instrument panel illuminated several faces frozen in terror.
The immense water pressure began to squeeze the powerless hull, emitting a sickening metallic groan.
The steel coffin, carrying the Chen family's deepest secrets, slowly slid into the boundless abyss of darkness.
Deep in the Sahara Desert, yellow sand stretches as far as the eye can see.
A camp belonging to the Gattuso family's arms smuggling ring, consisting of modified armored vehicles, is hidden beneath massive sand dunes.
The roar of engines and the clamor of voices were muffled and indistinct in the sandstorm.
A glimmer of silver light, like a desert ghost, appeared silently above the camp.
Lu Mingfei's cold gaze swept over the dozen or so scarlet dots clustered together on the map below.
Without hesitation, he brought his right index and middle fingers together and gently pressed down on the sand dune.
Great swordsmanship!
hum!
A colossal energy sword, even more refined and massive than the one in the ancient Roman castle, instantly materialized!
With a piercing shriek that seemed to tear through space, it ignored the obstruction of the sandstorm and, like a spear of divine punishment, slammed down on the camp beneath the sand dunes!
boom! ! !
A deafening roar, like the sky collapsing and the earth splitting apart! A violent energy shockwave spread wildly in all directions!
The entire massive sand dune was first crushed flat by an invisible, enormous force, and then suddenly exploded upwards!
Millions of tons of yellow sand were thrown hundreds of meters into the air, like a sand volcano erupting from the ground!
The sandstorm was instantly dispersed and cleared away!
The earth trembled violently, and a huge, bottomless rift valley with molten glass-like material flowing along its edges appeared in the middle of the desert!
The sturdy modified armored vehicles, barracks, weapons and ammunition below were completely vaporized and annihilated by the extreme heat and impact the moment the giant sword fell!
Not even a trace of anyone inside was left behind!
Only the scorched ground, the flowing gravel "glass," and the hideous scar on the earth testify to the devastating blow this place has suffered.
The sandstorm slowly subsided, covering the earth once more, as if burying the secrets and sins of this wilderness together.
Only the terrifying chasm, like a scar on the earth, starkly recounted the divine punishment that had just occurred under the moonlight.
……
A huge estate.
In the study room.
A middle-aged man in an elegant cashmere sweater slowly put down his satellite phone, his knuckles turning white from the force.
The last trace of color drained from his face, leaving only a deathly ashen look.
The heavy curtains blocked out the sunset, making the room dimly lit. Only the signal light of the satellite phone flickered like a dying firefly.
He dragged his leaden steps toward the large walnut desk.
The satellite phone was slammed heavily onto the table with a dull thud.
He slumped into the high-backed chair, the leather groaning under its strain.
His hands trembled uncontrollably as he picked up the glass of dark red, aged wine on the table.
The wine goes down his throat.
The once rich and sweet taste now feels like rusty water, cold and bitter, burning all the way to the bottom of my stomach, leaving only a mouthful of metallic taste and despair.
This bookstore, which has witnessed countless conspiracies, is now completely shrouded in the shadow of death.
In a short period of time, this cold satellite communicator has rang more than a dozen times.
Each buzzer was like a death knell from hell, carrying the mournful cries of the Chen family's last stronghold before its destruction from every corner of the world.
Lu Mingfei, who was known as a "celestial being," was in a divinely punishing manner.
They are precisely and ruthlessly slaughtering every life on a global scale that carries the blood of Gattuso or the Chen family!
Whether hiding deep in the ice field or diving into the dark trench, there is nowhere to hide!
"Hah..." A heavy sigh, seemingly from the depths of the heart, echoed in the deathly silent study.
Nearly a century of relentless striving, the ambitious plans of several generations, and the enormous network woven with massive resources and countless hours of effort...
Faced with absolute power, it is as fragile as a sandcastle built by a child.
The towering wave named Lu Mingfei slapped it gently and collapsed with a crash, without even a shred of decent resistance!
He knew all too well that hiding was pointless.
The other party was like a hunting dog wielding death, its sense of smell penetrating the space.
He also did not order the evacuation of the people inside the manor.
They too had the blood of the Chen family flowing in their veins, making them an inevitable footnote on that death list.
Extermination! The enemy's goal was clear and thorough: to completely erase the name of the Chen family from the world!
So... what exactly ignited the supreme being's thunderous wrath?
The answer, like an icicle, pierced his last remaining hope.
Artificial Dragon King!
That forbidden plan, which coveted the authority of the gods and attempted to steal the supreme power, was finally exposed!
This has triggered a brutal reckoning from the throne!
“Lu Mingfei…” He silently chewed on the name, a chilling aura seeping from between his teeth.
It was precisely because they knew the other party's long-buried true identity, an identity that could shake the entire world of hybrids.
He then realized more deeply that there was absolutely no room for maneuver in the other party's revenge.
That was a deep-seated hatred between sworn enemies, etched into their blood and written into their destiny!
The remaining wine in the glass was drunk, but the icy liquid brought no warmth; instead, it made my heart sink deeper into an ice cave.
The last vestige of struggle in his eyes vanished, replaced by an almost insane resolve.
He picked up the satellite phone again, the cold metal casing stinging his fingers.
His gaze fell on the buttons, as ruthless as a poisoned blade.
Press down hard with your index finger!
"beep!!"
With just one waiting tone, the line was instantly connected!
Clearly, the entity on the other end of the phone had been eagerly waiting for the signal from this clandestine line.
"Celestial Path Mingfei is the reincarnation of the Black King!" the middle-aged man said quickly into the microphone before the other party could speak.
After saying that, he hung up without hesitation!
There were no explanations, no pleasantries, only the nuclear bomb, ignited and powerful enough to detonate the world, which he launched with pinpoint accuracy!
Then came the second, the third... and the teenth!
The movements were mechanical and swift, each dialing carried a frenzied suicidal intent!
Every time the call connected, all that was heard was that repetitive, curse-like low growl:
"The celestial immortal Lu Mingfei is the reincarnation of the Black King!"
"The celestial immortal Lu Mingfei is the reincarnation of the Black King!"
Chapter 170 Fengmanlou
A dozen identical announcements, like a dozen venomous rattlesnakes, instantly burrowed into the most hidden corners of the global mixed-race shadow world through invisible radio waves!
