385: Chapter 384 The Power of Micronuclei
"Lowly human, is this all you're capable of, yet you claim you'll exterminate my entire race?!"
When Illya saw Chu Xuan's clothes torn, his exposed skin bloodied, and white specks of light constantly emerging around him as he was being eroded by the power of light, she couldn't help but sneer mockingly.
Especially when she saw the thick, tubular object that had suddenly appeared on his shoulder, she showed an expression of utter disdain and indifference.
She raised her longbow again and began to draw it, charging her shot; countless dazzling lights immediately began to gather around her.
At the same time, the three individuals dressed in moon-white robes also sneered in unison: "It's just a mere mundane object, yet you dare to bring it out and make a fool of yourself. It seems we won't even need to act..."
However, before the three could finish their sentence, Chu Xuan had already pulled the trigger.
"Something's wrong..." The trio's eyelids twitched as their keen intuition suddenly sensed something amiss.
However, it was already too late.
Accompanied by a deafening hum, the light and flames exploded, and the violent thrust plowed a long furrow into the ground.
The crimson micro-nuclear warhead, trailing a blazing white tail of fire, pierced through the sky and tore through the sonic barrier, roaring toward the direction Illya's previous arrow had come from.
"Not good..."
"Scatter, quickly!!"
"I'll block it!"
At the very moment the crimson warhead erupted, Illya immediately abandoned her draw, flapped her wings, and soared into the sky.
The three in moon-white robes widened their eyes, their expressions changing wildly; two of them scrambled away in different directions.
Yet, one person stayed behind. From the illusory vision behind him, a ten-meter-tall golden-armored general galloped out, holding a massive shield to block the front.
Boom—!!!
A distance of a thousand meters was covered in the blink of an eye.
Accompanied by a world-shaking roar, in that instant, the entire world was swallowed by a blindingly white light.
A massive, terrifying fireball expanded instantly; the intense heat ignited the air itself, and the shockwave surged in all directions.
A hideous mushroom cloud rose abruptly!
Within a range of a hundred and fifty meters, those wooden stockades completely vaporized and vanished.
Within three hundred meters, a layer of the earth was forcibly torn up, with countless wood chips and soil flying in all directions.
Within five hundred meters, the wooden stockades were shattered by the vibrations.
At eight hundred meters, the ground trembled and hummed, dust billowed, and wild winds swirled.
The heat waves rippled outward, reaching over one thousand two hundred meters!
Seeing that things were going south, Tan Ziming, Pang Hu, and the others had already dropped to the ground.
Only Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged, staying calm even under the peripheral shockwave.
The turbulent wind tousled his hair and tattered clothes. He stood his ground, unmoving, as he discarded the scorching hot launcher.
Although that micro-nuke didn't have the Fire of Nirvana to burn spirituality, and the gains from individual kills weren't much, the total quantity made up for it.
[Your spirituality value +52]
[Your spirituality value +150]
[Your spirituality value +15]
[Your spirituality value +240]
A series of System kill notifications appeared.
It brought him a total of 6,542 points of spirituality value.
At this moment, Chu Xuan's spirituality value had directly reached 13,738 points; it could truly be called a sudden windfall.
However, when Chu Xuan looked closely at the System kill notifications, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
"The gains are still a bit low... Is it because I used a nuclear bomb? But when I killed the Azure Dragon using a fighter jet, the gains didn't decrease? Or is it because this is another world?"
Not only that, even the increase in his maximum health points wasn't very significant.
Having killed so many of the Elf Race—at least forty or more, including elites with seven feathers on their heads—his maximum health points only increased by a total of 600.
"Still, it's alright; at least there's a profit..." Chu Xuan shook his head slightly. It seemed that whether in this other world or his original one...
He ultimately still needed to use the Fire of Nirvana to kill enemies to maximize his gains.
Thinking of this, Chu Xuan looked up toward a thousand meters away.
At the center of the explosion, a massive black crater dozens of meters wide had been blasted into the earth, with vitrified crystals even appearing at its edges.
A golden-armored general holding a large shield dissipated with the wind, revealing the moon-robed man behind him, whose body was now in ruins.
What little remained of his shattered bones and mangled flesh collapsed to the ground in the breeze.
Meanwhile, although Illya and the other two moon-robed men had managed to avoid it in time, they were still covered in large areas of charred skin, looking extremely pathetic.
Especially Illya; though she had a pair of wings, her speed was the slowest, and she hadn't managed to escape the central area in time, being caught by the intense heat.
Her two exquisite wings were now turned to charcoal, and her beautiful face was a bloody mess as she lay on the ground, wailing in agony.
As for the members of the Elf Race who had come along, all those within a hundred meters of the explosion who failed to escape had perished.
Some had vanished entirely, while others left behind only mangled chunks of flesh.
Those between a hundred and three hundred meters away mostly had broken bodies; the few who survived were on the verge of death.
Only beyond three hundred meters had suffered varying degrees of injury. They scrambled up from the ground, their expressions filled with horror as they watched this scene in disbelief.
There were also some further away, beyond a thousand meters.
Although they withstood the shockwave, many elves with only one or two feathers on their heads began to wail in agony as they were touched by the greyish-white powdery substances floating in the air, as if they had been hit by a deadly poison.
Splash!!
A massive wave rose from the periphery and crashed down violently with a roaring sound, jolting everyone present awake.
"Lowly human, you actually... I will definitely kill you!"
Illya struggled to her feet and picked up her great bow again, wanting to notch an arrow, but with a "pfft" sound, she spat out a large mouthful of blood mixed with bits of internal organs.
"Heh! Squishy as expected..." Chu Xuan's expression was indifferent. He didn't care at all about the radiation from the micro-nuke as he slowly walked forward.
"Leave the rest to us!"
Two thunderous shouts rang out in succession as the remaining two moon-white robed men flew into the air. Although their Auras had weakened slightly, the light in their eyes remained intense.
"Kid, you shouldn't have any other tricks left, right?"
"Having killed so many more Disciples of our Five Qi Guiyuan Sect, I must tear you into ten thousand pieces today!"
Both were treading on the Void Realm.
One of them, a youth with phoenix eyes, was still hundreds of meters away when he raised a finger and shouted coldly:
"Heavenly Luo Earthly Net!"
Countless illusory nets suddenly appeared behind him, and after vanishing instantly, they actually appeared all around Chu Xuan's body.
In the illusory scene behind the other person, a vicious ape emerged and suddenly pounced into his body.
"Holy Ape Descent!"
The man's entire body swelled significantly, and his robes instantly bulged.
His originally elegant Young Master appearance instantly transformed into a burly man covered in thick golden fur, who began charging forward at extreme speed.
"I heard you also know some peculiar Slash techniques. Now, under my Junior Brother's Heavenly Luo Earthly Net, no Divine Ability or technique can be used. Let's see how you'll show off now!"
The burly man laughed ferociously.
"Can't move, can you? Why don't you try another Slash for me to see?"
"My lifelong passion is using the power of the Physical Body to crush small fry like you who only dare to attack from a distance, and then skin and eat you alive!!"
Amidst his laughter, the burly man's right arm muscles swelled again, vibrating the air as he charged.
"Mountain Shaking Punch, Holy Ape Shakes the Mountain!"
"Watch this punch of mine—Skull Crusher!"
Rumble!!
Under this punch, a scene of collapsing mountains seemed to faintly emerge.
"All that babbling, only to shout your 11 points of true strength attribute up to 16... Martial Dao Guiyuan Realm is nothing more than this."
Chu Xuan looked up and calmly watched the burly man, who was nearly a hundred meters away a second ago and was now right in front of him.
Then, as the other's expression changed wildly, he raised his fist.
