79: Chapter 78 The Voice of the [Double-Pupil Warrior]! The Determination to Explore the Abyss!!
Sun Po landed heavily. After a battle in the [ Black Rhino Armor ], its lacquer surface was slightly soiled.
At this moment, Sun Po couldn't help but sigh to himself:
"Isn't this calamity qi enhancement effect a bit too exaggerated? He can leap a hundred meters in a single bound! Does the [ Black Rhino Armor ] jump higher than Tigger?"
Sun Po hadn't expected that the [ Meteor Raging Waterfall Pierce ] condensed by mixing [ calamity qi ] with the [ Power of the Abyss ] and the [ Water Element ] could be so powerful.
As it happened, the monster also leaped high into the air, opening its mouth right before him. A strategy of kicking a cripple's good leg naturally wasn't as destructive as stabbing straight inside for an internal explosion.
And so, it was a coincidence.
Moreover, Sun Po knew how special an environment with such almost endless calamity qi was.
If the [ calamity qi reactor ] created by the [ mod loading system ] hadn't solved the power supply problem of the [ Black Rhino Armor ],
and directly enabled the "Infinite Firepower Cheat", it probably would have been very difficult to achieve such fruitful results.
In this battle, Sun Po slaughtered countless [ Mutated Deep One ]s,
and had been continuously decomposing materials. Although the quality of the dropped materials wasn't high, the sheer terrifying quantity made up for it.
When Sun Po just finished tallying, he found that the spirituality value of the [ mod loading system ] had already reached 532,100 points!!
All the spirituality values Sun Po had obtained before probably only added up to a fraction of this single battle.
Although this was indeed a crisis, if a crisis was seized, it would be a huge opportunity.
But Sun Po also felt some regret in his heart:
"It's a pity about this almost endless calamity qi."
The last time Sun Po saw this level of calamity qi was at the Black Water River in the [ Wujiang Secret Realm ],
that long river condensed from the qi of military disasters that left an extremely deep impression on Sun Po.
But [ Changyou ] loved to absorb the qi of floods and couldn't absorb too much of the qi of military disasters.
Therefore, he could only let the Black Water River perish along with the [ Wujiang Secret Realm ].
However, he didn't dwell on it excessively, instead focusing his gaze on the more important harvest.
The [ Great Old One ], the divine monster, [ Dagon ]!!
He only saw purple, orange, and golden lights bursting all over the ground like fireworks.
But because the monster exploded mid-air, the materials were scattered everywhere, and he had to go through the trouble of picking them back up.
Suddenly, a voice came from far behind Sun Po:
"Brother Po, a high school senior slaying a god with a single strike without even using any cards—that truly is unprecedented."
As he spoke, Li Tiance held a piece of golden material in his hand and walked toward Sun Po.
Sun Po looked at the time, and it truly was noon, causing him to inwardly curse his bad luck.
You didn't come early, you didn't come late, you had to come when the materials were dropping.
When this damned [ Dagon ] died, it didn't even know how to die neatly, making him a step slow in picking up materials.
Li Tiance seemed to have seen through Sun Po's hidden worries, and handing over the material in his hand, he laughed and said:
"Brother Po need not worry. Although divine substance is precious, Tiance will not embezzle your harvest."
Although there were a few among the others who really wanted to scavenge around,
facing a badass who had just slain a god single-handedly without even using cards, truly no one dared to act rashly.
Except for one person—Liu Jianren.
This kid wished he could strip the ground bare and search everywhere, rushing over immediately whenever he saw something glowing.
Sun Po was still in the fusion state of the [ Black Rhino Armor ], and his voice had a peculiar electronic sound effect:
"Brother Tiance, don't misunderstand. It was just a narrow escape from death;
amidst the intense battle, I actually didn't notice you guys arriving. Can our transaction be considered complete?"
At this moment, Li Tiance also appeared very straightforward: "Naturally. The crisis of [ Li Tang Wanbang University ] has been resolved,
and presumably [ Military God Li ] is almost here. Once [ Military God Li ] arrives, Tiance will naturally hand that bead over to Brother Po."
Hearing this, Sun Po nodded. To this day, he still didn't know what Li Tiance was really thinking.
If one were to say he didn't know the origin of that bead? Yet when introducing it to Sun Po back then,
he was able to immediately state that the bead was related to a powerful deity called the Great Deity of the Three Altars of the Sea Assembly.
But if it were such a powerful material, why didn't he keep it to research himself?
What if he successfully researched the crafting sequence of [ Nezha ]? Tsk tsk tsk.
Was the Li family already so wealthy that they didn't care about materials related to [ Nezha ]?
Sun Po thought about it and felt there was no clue, so he stopped thinking about it for now.
Even if this Li Tiance were truly an angler, he had better be careful not to fish up some deep-sea behemoth that would swallow him whole in one bite.
As long as he progressed fast enough, any scheme would find it hard to keep up with his pace.
At this time, Liu Jianren had almost finished picking up the materials scattered nearby,
and only needed to pick up the few golden crystals by the cliff edge.
The calamity qi enhancement effect of the [ Black Rhino Armor ] was still present, and Sun Po still possessed a physical fitness comparable to the Hulk.
With a light leap toward the scattered directions of a few materials further away in his memory, he saw specks of light flashing below.
Soon, Sun Po finished collecting and returned to rendezvous with the others.
Liu Jianren also finished picking up the last golden crystal at the edge of the abyss, and as he picked it up and walked back, he shouted:
"Brother Po, we've struck it rich this time! So many golden materials!! I've never even seen them before!"
Sun Po and Liu Jianren had come out of [ Gaoping City ] together and experienced life and death together, so naturally, he trusted him.
Just as Sun Po was about to tell Liu Jianren to stay away from that abyss—[ Dagon ] had escaped from in there—
suddenly, Sun Po's foot slipped, and the entire secret realm suddenly shook violently.
The next second, Sun Po suddenly heard a long-missed voice:
"My Lord, the mad dragon..."
The voice flashed and vanished, but Sun Po recognized it instantly.
The [ Double-Pupil Warrior ]!!
Sun Po was now incomparably certain that the [ Double-Pupil Warrior ] was right beneath this abyss!
The mutation of the [ Deep One ]s, the heavy injury of [ Dagon ]—perhaps all the answers to the mystery lay beneath this abyss.
Amidst the violent tremors, Liu Jianren still tightly hugged the materials in his arms without letting go.
Suddenly, a giant claw reached out from the abyss, scooping toward Liu Jianren, who was closest to it.
This giant hand was withered and thin, and both its size and the aura it exuded were far less exaggerated than [ Dagon ]'s.
Thick black hair grew on the giant hand, and it wore tattered crimson wide sleeves.
Liu Jianren was about to be scooped up by that giant hand.
Suddenly, [ Bai Yu ], who wasn't far from Liu Jianren, twisted his foot and instantly lost his balance.
He rapidly crashed into Liu Jianren like a rolling gourd.
Under this impact, Liu Jianren was sent flying into the air, which coincidentally allowed him to dodge that sure-to-hit giant hand.
It was just unfortunate for [ Bai Yu ]; struck by an undeserved disaster, he was directly snatched away by that giant hand.
The giant hand wanted to continue scooping toward Liu Jianren, but lacking the strength to do so, it fell back down.
Looking miserable, Liu Jianren held the materials in his arms with one hand while desperately gripping a protruding rock to hang onto the mountain face.
With a stride, Sun Po rushed directly over to rescue Liu Jianren, placing him in a safe spot far away from the abyss.
Soon, the tremors subsided, and Sun Po quickly put away the materials in his hands, afraid that any more trouble would arise.
But the words of the [ Double-Pupil Warrior ] constantly echoed in his ears:
The [ Double-Pupil Warrior ] had been missing ever since saving him, and he couldn't just sit back and ignore his own card.
No matter what, exploring the abyss was imperative.
