Chapter 138 The "Kneeling Clan" in the Secret Realm and an Embrace with Ten Times Gravity

Kunlun Guxu, this Forbidden Ground shrouded in mist and extreme cold, had fallen into an eerily profound silence at this moment.

Within a radius of one thousand meters, the battlefield, which had originally been filled with earth-shaking shouts and killing, seemed to have had a pause button pressed on it.

Whether it was the five-meter-tall "Tyrant-class" mechas from the Tianli Research Institute, the red-robed Cardinal of the Western Church holding a scepter, or the Nether Demon Wolf King that had been insufferably arrogant just moments ago but was now trembling with its tail tucked between its legs, all were maintaining the same posture—kneeling.

It was not that they wanted to kneel, but that they had no choice but to kneel.

That "Waking Up Anger Domain" erupting from Jiang Chen was like an ancient divine mountain crashing down upon them.

This was not gravity targeting the physical body, but a suppression of status that struck directly at the Soul.

Before that terrifying pressure, which seemed to originate from the Abyssal Empress, standing had become a luxury; looking up was even more of a blasphemy.

However, as the source of this terrifying pressure, Jiang Chen was currently doing something that made all the experts present question their lives.

"Snore... snore..." He was sleeping.

Not only was he sleeping, he was sleeping exceptionally soundly, even emitting a rhythmic sound of snoring.

"Damn it... what kind of monster is this?"

Lin Tianying, the Young Lord of the Tianying Sect, was currently kneeling at the place closest to Jiang Chen, his kneecaps groaning under the unbearable pressure.

He struggled to lift his eyelids, his eyes filled with fear and jealousy as he looked ahead.

There, in the center of the battlefield, on a piece of obsidian that was still relatively flat, Jiang Chen was lying on his side without any sense of decorum.

But he was not sleeping alone.

"Mmm... cold..." Jiang Chen, in his sleep, frowned slightly, seeming dissatisfied with the sudden drop in temperature around him.

He subconsciously reached out and pulled Mu Qingxue, who was beside him radiating cold air and on the verge of exhaustion, into his arms.

"Jiang Chen, you..." Mu Qingxue exclaimed, her body instantly stiffening.

At this moment, the gravity within the Secret Realm had soared to ten times that of the outside world. This terrifying gravity, combined with Jiang Chen's overbearing arm strength, caused her entire body to press against Jiang Chen with almost no gap.

Her ice-like skin and jade-like bones, which she was so proud of, were now deformed into a breathtaking curve under the pressure of the ten-fold gravity, fitting tightly against Jiang Chen's chest.

The tactile sensation of skin-to-skin contact, even through clothing, made this aloof Ice Empress blush to the tips of her ears.

"Don't move... so cool, just right to lower the heat."

Jiang Chen mumbled, pulled the quilt (which was actually Mu Qingxue's cloak) up, and draped a leg extremely naturally over Mu Qingxue's waist, using her as an oversized body pillow.

Immediately after, he felt a bit empty behind his back.

"Where's the hand warmer? Where did my hand warmer go?"

Jiang Chen reached back and accurately grabbed Su Qingyue's wrist behind him, pulling hard.

"Ah!" Su Qingyue let out a soft cry, and her whole body uncontrollably fell into Jiang Chen's embrace—or to be precise, pressed against Jiang Chen's back.

The scorching phoenix blood within her had now become the heat source Jiang Chen craved most in this icy world.

Thus, a scene appeared that was enough to make all men in the world have a nosebleed and cause all experts in the world to have their Dao Heart shattered:

In the center of this crisis-ridden Kunlun Secret Realm surrounded by powerful enemies, Jiang Chen was holding beauties in his arms, with the "Iceberg Air Conditioner" Mu Qingxue cooling him in front, and the "Human-shaped Heater" Su Qingyue warming him from behind. Under this natural "pressurization" of ten-fold gravity, the three were entangled like conjoined twins, sleeping in total oblivion.

"Is... is this some kind of evil art being used to Cultivate?"

In the distance, Cardinal Gabriel was kneeling on the ground, the cross in his hand already squeezed out of shape.

He looked at that alluring yet bizarre scene, his eyes full of disbelief. "To be able to fall asleep under such pressure? And also... also using the Physique of two women to balance Yin and Yang?"

"That is a recovery of Mental Energy!"

From a mecha nearby, a trembling electronic voice from the Tianli Research Institute pilot came out. "My scanner shows that the energy of those two women is flowing into that man's body at an astonishing speed! He is using... using sleep contact to recover the Mental Energy consumed earlier!"

"What?!" Lin Tianying heard this, and the jealousy in his eyes was almost becoming tangible. "You mean to say, he is using Goddess Mu and School Beauty Su as... power banks?"

"Not just power banks." The Nether Demon Wolf King, which had been lying on the ground, suddenly spoke in human language, its green wolf eyes filled with wariness. "This King can feel that with his breathing, the Spiritual Qi in this Secret Realm is gathering toward him. This human... he is Cultivating in his dreams! And his Realm is rising rapidly!"

"We cannot let him wake up!" A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Cardinal Gabriel's eyes. "He is currently in a deep sleep. Although the pressure is still there, his defense must be at its lowest. As long as we join forces..."

"Join forces? How? We can't even stand up!" Lin Tianying said through gritted teeth.

"Idiot!" Gabriel cursed under his breath. "The pressure is on the mental level, but our long-range attack methods are still available! Doesn't the mecha from the Tianli Research Institute have 'Neutron Oscillation Cannons'? That is a purely physical strike, unaffected by mental pressure!"

"Right! Oscillation Cannons!" The mecha pilot seemed to have reacted as well. "Just one shot; let alone a human, even if he were a god, he would be blasted to slag in his sleep!"

"Prepare to charge!" The three damaged mechas struggled to raise their arms, their pitch-black cannon barrels aimed at that "human bed."

And on the "bed." Although Mu Qingxue and Su Qingyue were held immobile by Jiang Chen, their consciousnesses were clear.

"Jiang Chen... wake up quickly! They are about to attack!" Mu Qingxue shouted anxiously in Jiang Chen's ear, the hot air she exhaled making Jiang Chen's ear itch.

"Don't make noise..." Not only did Jiang Chen not wake up, but he buried his head into Mu Qingxue's neck, rubbing against it like a cat. "Mosquitoes... so many mosquitoes..."

"Mosquitoes?" Su Qingyue was taken aback, then immediately saw the mecha cannon barrels charging in the distance. "Is he treating those mechas as mosquitoes?"

"Bzzzz—" The blue light of the mecha cannon barrels grew brighter and brighter, and the aura of death enveloped the three of them.

"There's no other way!" A trace of determination flashed in Su Qingyue's eyes. "Sister Qingxue, we must block it! We must not let him get hurt!"

"Yes!" Although Mu Qingxue was ashamed and indignant at their current posture, her eyes were equally firm. "Even if it means death, we must protect him!"

Just at the moment the blue beam of destruction was about to burst forth, Jiang Chen's body suddenly trembled slightly.

【System Prompt: Detected high-decibel noise charging (Neutron Cannon charging sound).】

【Environmental Judgment: Serious public disturbance.】

【Mental Energy recovery progress: 30% (barely powered on).】

【Triggered Passive: Sleepwalking · Swatting Mosquitoes.】

"Really... so annoying." Jiang Chen's right hand suddenly pulled away from Mu Qingxue's waist and grabbed at the air.

This grab had no True Qi fluctuations, only a ripple of extremely profound Mental Energy spreading out.

And inside the cockpits of those three mechas, the pilots suddenly discovered with horror that a giant palm made of purple light points had appeared on their control screens.

"What is this? System intrusion?!"

"No! It's an illusion! No... it's a real illusion!"

The next second. In the horrified gaze of everyone, Jiang Chen's hand that was grasping at the air gently pressed down, as if shooing away a fly.

"Slap!"

One hundred meters away, those three high-tech mechas that were charging up were hit hard as if by an invisible giant hand.

"Boom—!!!" Accompanied by a teeth-grinding sound of metal twisting, the three incredibly hard alloy mechas were instantly flattened into three iron discs!

The pilots inside didn't even have time to scream before they turned into a pile of scrap metal along with the mechas.

And that soon-to-be-fired Neutron Cannon exploded directly inside the barrel, triggering a series of secondary explosions that blasted deep pits into the surrounding ground.

The smoke and dust cleared. The whole scene fell into silence once again.

Only Jiang Chen's lazy voice, with a thick nasal tone, echoed in everyone's ears: "I said don't make noise... If you make noise again, I'll pull your wings off."

After saying this, his hand dropped back down, wrapping around Mu Qingxue's waist again, and he continued to sleep soundly.

Lin Tianying looked at those three "iron discs," a "clucking" sound coming from his throat; it was his teeth chattering.

Cardinal Gabriel was even more ashen-faced, the cross in his hand dropping to the ground with a "clatter."

"Sleep... flattening mechas from a distance while in his sleep? This... what kind of monster is this?!"
