Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 349: Do you crave power?


「In another carriage.」

Gu Xing and his family were sitting in the vacant business-class seats, all three of them silent, not a single word spoken. They appeared like three ordinary people whose spirits were crushed.

However, through Qin Heng's Divine Sense, it was possible to clearly hear Gu Xing conversing in his mental world with a Spiritual Body that was not at all weak.

Gu Xing seemed to be interrogating it, "What are you? Why have you appeared in my mind? And you forcibly took control of my body, making me kowtow and apologize to that damn Young Master Qin!"

The Spiritual Body was semi-transparent and humanoid, shrouded in a hazy blue mist. Its features were unclear, and even its gender was indiscernible. Its voice, resonant with an echo, reverberated in Gu Xing's mind.

"If I hadn't controlled you to kowtow and apologize just now, you would have died at that person's hands. Do you really think that kid is just a student?"

"How could that be? This is a society governed by law!" Gu Xing didn't believe it for a moment, retorting to the Spiritual Body in his mental world, "Would he dare to kill me? Wouldn't he fear breaking the law?"

"Hahahaha! The law? You little fool, you have no idea what the true situation of this world is like!" the Spiritual Body laughed coldly before saying, "Come, let me show you a battle!"

Then, Gu Xing felt his vision blur as if he had instantly changed location, finding himself on a vast, boundless wasteland.

Everywhere was sand and wind! Under his feet were only dirt and gravel. Within his field of vision, there wasn't even a speck of green, at most some dried grass roots—it was utterly desolate.

"What is this place?!" Gu Xing exclaimed, the situation surpassing his imagination.

BOOM! BOOM!

At that very moment, a rumbling sound came from the distance.

Then he saw eight tanks charging towards him, their enormous muzzles looking utterly ferocious, like prehistoric beasts. They bore down on him, carrying an aura of death and frenzy!

Following behind the tanks were over a hundred soldiers, all fully equipped with a variety of modern military hardware!

An army! It was an army!! And they were charging right towards him!!

Gu Xing panicked. He knew all too well that if he were to face such a military onslaught, his death was certain. It wasn't just the eight tanks; the soldiers alone could trample him into meat paste with a single step each!

What is this?! What in the world is going on?!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!

The tanks drew closer, seemingly about to roll over him.

Gu Xing's heart was seized by fear as he cried out in terror, "AAAH! Don't come over! Don't come over, AAAH!!"

BOOM!

The tanks drove past.

Contrary to Gu Xing's expectation, his body was transparent and entirely unharmed. The tanks drove right through him without him feeling a thing.

"This is just a mental illusion; you don't need to be afraid. You won't get hurt here. I just want you to see an image from my memory."

Gu Xing was stunned and muttered, "The mental world... a memory image? What exactly are you, and what is this? An Immortal Technique?"

"Immortal Technique? No." The Spiritual Body gently shook its head and smiled. "This is my Ability. You don't need to know the rest. If you want to know why that youngster dared to kill you, just watch this battle carefully."

"Ability?" Gu Xing mulled over this term, his mind churning like a tempest as he watched the movements of the tanks and soldiers.

He discovered that the target of their attack was—unbelievably—a single person! Yes! Just one man: bald, over 1.9 meters tall, powerfully built with bulging muscles, wearing a sports vest and shorts!

Gu Xing's first reaction was to wonder, Has the world gone mad?

It took eight tanks and more than a hundred fully armed soldiers to attack one man. Using a cannon to shoot a mosquito wasn't even this excessive!

What were they trying to do?! Was this a joke?!

However, the scene he witnessed the next instant completely stunned him.

The bald man, watching the tanks and soldiers charging toward him, showed not the slightest fear. Instead, a cruel smile spread across his face, like a Hunter spotting his prey!

BOOM!

The bald man leaped into the air. Gu Xing could feel the ground beneath his feet tremble violently, as if an earthquake had struck, roaring to life as countless rocks and dust were flung into the sky!

BANG! BANG! BANG!!

The ground began to crack, spiderweb-like fissures spreading outwards from the bald man at the center, intersecting each other, transforming the geography within a one-kilometer radius!

HUM! HUM! HUM!!

The tanks roared, but the sudden change in terrain caused all eight of them to sink into the earth's fissures, immobilizing them. Countless soldiers also fell into the crevices, leaving no corpse intact!

The tanks could only turn their barrels, attempting to bombard the man directly!

However, while the tanks were still adjusting their cannon angles, the bald man, who had leaped into the air, landed thunderously on one of the tanks like a god descended from the heavens.

With both hands grasping the cannon barrel, he swung it, hurling the entire tank like a brick towards another!

KABOOM!

A deafening explosion erupted, flames shooting into the sky!

Two tanks were instantly rendered useless!

The shockwave from the explosion and flying tank fragments killed dozens more soldiers!

In the following four or five seconds, the bald strongman, using the same simple and brutal method, annihilated all the remaining tanks and soldiers!

The entire process took less than ten seconds!

Horrifying! Truly terrifying!!

Gu Xing was dumbfounded, shaking with excitement as he said, "Is this... is this a movie? This can't be real, can it? How... how can a human be so powerful?!"

This bald man was so incredibly strong! Tanks, those formidable weapons of war, were like children's toys in his hands, smashed with a casual toss! It was truly inconceivable!

"This is an S-class Ability User," the Spiritual Body said with a smile. "That kid from before possesses nearly the same power. Do you think he wouldn't dare to kill you?"

"That... that Qin Heng... he has such power?!" Gu Xing shuddered upon hearing this, his expression filled with horror as he stammered, "How is that possible? This..."

"Nothing is impossible," the Spiritual Body chuckled. "He is a renowned powerhouse in China's Martial Dao world, known as the undefeatable Qin Xuantian. He has killed more than one S-class Ability User! With your strength, you could never take revenge on him!"

"Then... what should I do?" Gu Xing was completely panicking now.

"It's simple," the Spiritual Body said with a smile. "What do you think of that man's strength from the vision?"

"Very strong! Incredibly strong! Unbelievably strong!!" Gu Xing nodded and asked, "Was that you?"

"No, that was my Disciple," the Spiritual Body said with a broad smile. "If you also crave that sort of power, then become my student. I will make you even stronger!"

"Stronger than Qin Xuantian?" Gu Xing's eyes lit up, overjoyed.

"Correct. You will become stronger than anyone!" The Spiritual Body's eyes flickered with a dark purple light, emanating an endless temptation.

"Teacher! Please teach me to become stronger!!"

Gu Xing bowed respectfully to the Spiritual Body. With his head lowered, teeth clenched secretly and eyes brimming with intense hatred, he fiercely said, "Qin Xuantian, I will definitely become stronger and make you kneel at my feet! Just you wait! Fortune's wheel may turn; never bully the young and poor!"
