During the process of absorbing magma, Zhang Yanhang could feel that the surrounding magma wasn't fixed in place, but rather in a state of flow, or more accurately, a surge. As for the direction of the surge? Naturally, it was swiftly flowing towards the crustal breach that Zhang Yanhang had opened.
Having nothing to do while staying in the mantle layer, Zhang Yanhang quickly teleported back to the surface, or rather, to the location of the continental glacier.
Then he discovered that although it had only been a few seconds, the situation had completely changed with the spread of destruction.
The previous ice fragments and crustal debris had all fallen back to the ground, replaced by a gigantic gray-black mushroom cloud rising up, enveloping the sky for hundreds of kilometers around.
At the same time, under the impact, the relatively slow-reacting air finally formed a terrifying shockwave, which spread rapidly to the surroundings along with the mushroom cloud rising into the air.
In a short moment, it had already spread hundreds of kilometers far, stirring up massive amounts of ice shards, first melted by high temperatures into sludge, but then evaporated again by the heat, forming arid soil and dust.
Zhang Yanhang started receiving scattered hints of kills as the shockwave spread, although he had no idea how the situation had formed.
However, most monsters were directly crushed by the first wave of impact, so the kill notifications were sparse, with only a few hundred.
[Successfully killed Third Tier Three-star Monster 'Electric Chainsaw Gingerbread Man (Normal)' x1, Soul points +1050.]
[Successfully killed Third Tier Three-star Monster 'Electric Chainsaw Gingerbread Man (Normal)' x1, Soul points +1050.]
[Successfully killed Fourth Tier One-star Monster 'Zombie Santa (Normal)' x1, Soul points +3500.]
...
As the shockwave continued to expand and time went on, the earthquake waves initially transmitted underground showed an increasingly severe trend, no longer merely causing the ground to crack but beginning to cause crustal compression and fractures.
Accompanied by a continuous rumbling and pressing noise, high mountain regions suddenly and mysteriously sank into basins, while a massive amount of magma erupted furiously, mixing with large basalt and granite pieces destroyed by Zhang Yanhang, continuously forming 'Meteor Fire Rain,' bombarding and destroying the surrounding area.
Meanwhile, in the distance, some areas that were initially flat ground were pushed up under crustal compression, transforming into a new mountain range, which continued to rise rapidly, soon becoming a kilometer-high mountain during the compression.
But at this point, the earthquake waves continued to intensify, causing the towering peak assembled from crustal edges to crack open due to the inability to withstand enormous pressure and rapid growth, forming a shadowy abyss deeper than before.
Besides this typical mountain merging failure, nearby areas showed dense low hills formed by boulders falling from the collapsed mountain; these hills being simpler in structure were less affected by the earthquake waves and survived.
The enormous 'tunnel' created by Zhang Yanhang's direct hit into the crust was now like a gate of Hell, continuously spewing mantle magma.
A massive amount of magma gradually flowed into the surrounding ground fissures formed by the earthquake, rapidly cooling under the continental glacier above, forming porous black magma rock.
However, although the speed of magma eruption was fast enough, the spread speed of the earthquake was faster, so the cooling magma rock couldn't fill the fissures faster than the fissures continued to spread.
Furthermore, as the fissures spread, their overall width continuously increased, often causing the freshly cooled and bonded magma rock to break again during the expansion.
By this time, the gigantic gray-black mushroom cloud began to dissipate, but although the mushroom cloud was disappearing, the dust didn't dissipate.
A massive amount of dust and soil particles swept by the shockwave, though most fell back to the ground after the shockwave dissipated, still had a considerable part flying high into the sky, gradually forming an even more spectacular gray-black dust cloud than the original mushroom cloud.
This vast dust cloud used the shockwave as a basis for expansion, immediately upon formation spreading to a coverage area of hundreds of kilometers, and continuing to expand with ongoing impact transmission.
Meanwhile, the continuously erupting mantle magma gradually began producing snowlike volcanic ash, continually drifting afar.
A large portion of the volcanic ash drifted to the ground, covering the already polluted yellow-black earth with a new layer, a gray-black layer.
Initially white continental glaciers were ravaged by yellow-black soil, and then by gray-black volcanic ash again, with the surface of the continental glaciers showing melting due to high temperatures.
This led to soil and volcanic ash being integrated with ice melt from melted glacier surfaces, ultimately forming something that looks neither quite black nor gray, but certainly giving a dirty impression at first glance.
Gradually, it began to refreeze under the cold temperatures emanating from the bottom of the continental glaciers, causing the surface to suddenly appear as if it had transformed from white glaciers to a black coal mine.
Although a lot of volcanic ash drifted to the ground, a larger portion drifted high, combining with the vast dust cloud in the sky, continuously and crazily expanding the dust cloud's size.
With this development, Zhang Yanhang felt the dust cloud might expand to a diameter of over a thousand kilometers within a dozen minutes, gradually drifting worldwide, blocking sunlight massively, causing extensive crop failure and even total destruction in affected areas.
Occasionally, cold air might fuse with hot air in the dust cloud, causing localized small rain showers, rich in toxic substances, an acid rain; it can be said that any normal human daring to be drenched will likely die a very unpeaceful death.
Since Greenland is surrounded by sea and although vast, still considered an 'island,' when earthquake waves spread out, they soon reached coastal areas, quickly converting these impact-induced earthquake waves into sea quakes.
A gigantic tsunami over hundreds of meters is rapidly brewing, continuously rushing towards the coastal region of Greenland, and portions of the continental glacier that have already shattered and fallen into the ocean further intensify this process, constantly helping to increase the height of this tsunami.
Soon, with a massive crashing sound, a towering wave like a thick wall slammed firmly onto the coastal area of Greenland, immediately sweeping away more continental glacier, and after the glacier was swept away, it further strengthened the tsunami.
Under the influence of continuously spreading seismic waves, the tsunami waves continue to crash onto Greenland, incessantly incorporating more fragments of the continental glacier, and it can be anticipated that, if left unchecked, the rise in sea levels will inevitably become a reality.
Simultaneously, more seismic waves converted into sea quakes are not merely confined to the vicinity of Greenland but begin to advance towards distant Europe and North America, continuously absorbing more ocean tides along the way, ceaselessly expanding the height of the waves. Although just born, it already shows the potential to form a towering giant wave.
Because maintaining this seven hundred feet Dharma Body was too exhausting, and he felt that he probably wouldn't need the strong combat power in this state later, Zhang Yanhang canceled the effect of the "Giant Transformation" four-piece set after observing for a short while.
Indeed, he merely canceled the "Giant Transformation" four-piece set but still maintained the bonus of "Fatian Xiangdi," so he remains at a height of two hundred and twenty meters.
As for why it suddenly changed from two hundred and nineteen meters to two hundred and twenty meters, it can only be said that he automatically obtained new growth in this short time, so now, relying solely on "Fatian Xiangdi," he has a height of two hundred and twenty meters.
It must be mentioned that after actual use, Zhang Yanhang found that the stamina consumption of this seven hundred feet Dharma Body was even greater than imagined. Originally he estimated ten to fifteen minutes, but the best result of fifteen minutes was completely unachievable, with a maximum sustaining time of ten minutes only.
However, even this is quite good, more than three times the previous three-minute Ultraman transformation. Under normal circumstances, as long as he doesn't engage in fierce battles with strong enemies, it should generally be enough, so actually, it's fine.
Zhang Yanhang thinks that if he makes efforts to increase his stamina limit later, he should be able to continue extending the duration of the seven hundred feet Dharma Body.
After observing the collapse of Greenland for a while, Zhang Yanhang noticed that Gu Mingyue and Zhou Muxi didn't leave but stayed nearby to watch, only flying very high. Moreover, as high-level Awakened ones, they weren't harmed, effectively observing the spectacle from close range with high intensity.
So, after some thought, Zhang Yanhang teleported back to them.
"Why are you two still here?"
Previously, Zhang Yanhang thought Gu Mingyue and Zhou Muxi had directly teleported back to Qin Island City to await results, but he didn't expect them to watch closely up front.
"Such a spectacular scene is hard to see even in movies, and the effects don't compare to the real thing, so it's a pity not to stay and watch."
Primarily, Gu Mingyue also wanted to know the level of Zhang Yanhang's attack this time; the result completely exceeded imagination, undoubtedly more potent than the Fifth Tier, at least Sixth Tier destruction level.
"Luckily, you didn't use that tenfold bonus skill attack. Right now, ordinary attacks have penetrated the mantle layer, causing magma to emerge. If you used a skill attack, this Greenland map could permanently lose a large portion of national territory."
Zhou Muxi felt extremely fortunate to have come and persuaded Zhang Yanhang; otherwise, the destruction of Greenland wouldn't be significant, but if it affected the Empire, it could cause significant trouble.
Initially, it was her promise to Zhang Yanhang that Greenland could be destroyed freely without concern from the Empire.
Yet, due to the huge scale of destruction caused by Zhang Yanhang, she had to personally come and persuade him to hold back and not be so serious.
So, if that hadn't worked, according to causality, she would inevitably bear responsibility.
But who could predict such a spontaneous event?
Who could have known that just saying 'will cause significant damage in Greenland' meant directly smashing Greenland's continental glacier and crust, even breaking into the mantle layer?
If she knew this result would occur, Zhou Muxi would definitely not respond so lightly.
"Indeed, not triggering extra attack is truly fortunate."
Even without using "All Four Elements are Void," simply triggering a 425% rate extra attack, Zhang Yanhang thought the situation would undoubtedly have worsened significantly.
Because once the extra attack triggers, it seamlessly connects, resulting in far greater destruction than four times his attack power bonus and a subsequent fall could cause.
"Wait, what is this extra attack?"
Zhou Muxi felt she inadvertently heard something important again. While she didn't know what the extra attack specifically was, just hearing Zhang Yanhang's tone indicated it must be very dangerous.
"It's nothing, really, just an independently existing attack that might trigger additionally. You can consider it like a critical hit."
Zhang Yanhang always envisioned raising the extra attack trigger chance to one hundred percent like the critical strike rate, although unrealistic, it holds value in effort. Indeed, extra attacks are very useful, especially for Awakeners like him who mostly use normal attacks.
"Sounds formidable..."
Given its similarity to critical hit attacks, Zhou Muxi seriously suspected this extra attack's strength might surpass the attack itself. Luckily, whether attributed to fortune or misfortune, it didn't trigger successfully, otherwise, the scene might have been even more spectacular.
