Chapter 1439: Eye of Destruction
Jiangnan's body's keen sense of danger made him instinctively teleport to dodge!
And the moment Jiangnan teleported away!
The One-Eyed Species roared!
"Star Pupil Cannon!"
(ꐦ⊙)▇▇▇▇▇弌弌)
The next instant, a crimson-purple beam of light blasted forth from the single eye!
Sparks of dazzling lightning flickered around the beam as it shot forward with unstoppable force!
The world between heaven and earth was dyed crimson-purple. The beam, a hundred meters thick, its intensity comparable to the atomic breath of a Dragon Cookie!
A terrifying explosion accompanied the Star Pupil Cannon as it extended outward like a laser cutting!
It carved a massive trench over a hundred meters wide on the lunar surface, reaching an astonishing several kilometers in length!
And it didn't stop!
The single eye continued outputting spatial energy, the Star Pupil Cannon's beam moving with the One-Eyed Species' line of sight!
It even sliced off the top of a distant impact crater. Tilting its head upward!
The Giant Wood Spirit controlling its form was cleaved in two by the Star Pupil Cannon!
Burning into nothingness!
In that moment, the One-Eyed Species completely broke free. Its injuries healed at lightning speed!
The light in its eye gradually faded, and its entire body emitted an overloaded white smoke!
A transparent eye membrane covered the single eye again!
Now, everyone stared at the One-Eyed Species in terror!
Just how strong was it?
What kind of astonishing destructive power was this?
Eyes that could fire lasers?
Not only did it have outstanding physical abilities and powerful close combat, but it could also unleash Star Pupil Cannons from range?
Was there no counter to this?!
At that moment, in the main control room, watching the transmitted footage, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom of the valley!
Prediction, visual lock-on, mental control, and even the ability to fire Star Pupil Cannons?
And it had a second-stage transformation?
This was cheating, damn it!
That big eye wasn't for nothing after all!
Chen Daoyi swallowed his saliva.
(◞ŏ﹏ŏ) "Maybe... maybe we should retreat!"
This was too twisted! How could it not die even after all that fighting?
The One-Eyed Species leaned forward, abnormally excited!
"I hope you can hold out until all my energy is depleted!"
As it spoke, its body moved from slow to fast, charging out at an astonishing speed!
Heading straight for Li Bing!
Jiangnan's expression hardened: (ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "And you think I can't take you down? You're not the only one who can transform!"
"Blood Incineration • One Thought Asura!"
"Boom!"
At this moment, Jiangnan's physical abilities were pushed to their limit. Glazed Armor covered his entire body to prevent his spacesuit from being destroyed!
His body vanished from its spot instantly, appearing before the One-Eyed Species!
He pivoted his hips and threw a punch!
The two fists collided fiercely!
"Boom!"
Jiangnan's arm bone let out a crisp cracking sound, blood bursting from his arm!
Meanwhile, half of the One-Eyed Species' arm was blown apart by Jiangnan, flesh and bone fragments flying everywhere!
But the One-Eyed Species' severed arm grew back in an instant, its regeneration speed even faster than before!
It swung its fist again at Jiangnan!
Yet Jiangnan raised one hand high, forming a sixty-meter Rift-Saw Blade, the space around it shattered into pieces!
He slashed fiercely at the One-Eyed Species' neck!
The One-Eyed Species' pupil contracted sharply. Its eye membrane opened, and a Star Pupil Cannon shot straight at the Rift-Saw Blade!
"Boom!"
The two exploded upon impact, hundreds of spatial blades slashing wildly everywhere!
Like a giant meat grinder, interspersed with explosions from the Star Pupil Cannon!
Jiangnan had already teleported away before the explosion, but the One-Eyed Species wasn't so lucky!
Its body was riddled with holes from the spatial blades, and even half of its shoulder was severed!
But these were not fatal injuries to the One-Eyed Species. As long as the eye remained intact, it could regenerate everything!
The lightning wrapped around the One-Eyed Species' body blazed to its extreme at this moment!
Its speed surged again, turning into a brilliant bolt of lightning that charged out of the explosion zone!
Its injuries healed rapidly, but before it could finish healing—
Eight Glazed Void Chains extended out, wrapping around the One-Eyed Species' body layer by layer!
"Void Serpent!"
No matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't break free from the Void Chains!
At the same time, another Rift-Saw Blade formed in Jiangnan's hand!
"Displace!"
The bound One-Eyed Species was instantly brought beneath the Rift-Saw Blade!
The blade exploded again, spatial blades chopping wildly at the One-Eyed Species like mincing meat!
Its energy had already begun to weaken!
Just then, wooden spikes burst from the ground, piercing its body and pinning the One-Eyed Species in place!
The spatial blades dispersed, leaving the One-Eyed Species drenched in blood. Yet even so, it still tried to heal!
It was enough to make one's scalp tingle!
But its struggling body suddenly froze the next moment!
Jiangnan had appeared behind it without warning. His golden finger poked through a Space Wormhole and jabbed into the One-Eyed Species' spine!
Because of the wormhole, Jiangnan's spacesuit was also rapidly depressurizing!
But it wasn't a big deal!
The completely paralyzed One-Eyed Species couldn't move at all, finally calming down!
Jiangnan let out a long sigh of relief.
Hoo~ (︶ε︶O) "Finally got it!"
But Li Bing said urgently, her eyes full of worry!
"Jiangnan! Something's wrong!"
The One-Eyed Species' entire body's energy was rapidly converging toward its eye!
Its eye turned blood-red, flashing with an eerie crimson light!
"Eye of Destruction!"
Jiangnan: !!!
Although he didn't know what this move was, it sounded very destructive!
Jiangnan didn't care about anything else at this moment!
Void Chains shot out, wrapping around everyone in an instant as he teleported away!
The next moment, the One-Eyed Species' single eye exploded violently!
"Boom!"
The terrifying explosive force shook the ground, throwing up a soil wave a hundred meters high!
It surged outward in all directions!
The explosion's energy covered an area of ten thousand square meters!
Jiangnan brought everyone to a spot ten thousand meters away, instantly opening a Space Wormhole to transfer them from the incoming soil wave!
After the light faded!
The all-terrain lunar rover was blown to pieces, leaving a massive crater three thousand meters in diameter!
It had even formed a small impact crater...
At the center of the crater, there was no trace of the One-Eyed Species, presumably wiped out along with the explosion!
Li Bing stared blankly at the crater.
(٥꒪口꒪) "It gathered all its energy and self-destructed?"
Jiangnan's face darkened: (̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄ "The Paralysis Ring can only paralyze its body muscles, not control energy flow!"
"This One-Eyed Species is too ruthless. Just grabbing one at random is this strong?"
After all that effort, they didn't even capture an experiment sample, and ended up covered in dust!
Chen Daoyi covered his face: "Forget it, destroy this world. Humanity is hopeless!"
If just one One-Eyed Species was this powerful, with so many on the moon—
If a large-scale war really broke out with humanity, did humanity even have a chance of winning?
The One-Eyed Species had many abilities beyond understanding!
At that moment, Yang Jian's expression was extremely grim. Everyone stared blankly at the crater on the screen!
The main control room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop!
Even this self-destruction had a power comparable to a small tactical nuclear bomb...
If a real fight broke out: Star Pupil Cannons, super regeneration, visual lock-on, and a series of troublesome abilities...
Jiang Tianchen laughed bitterly: "Truly despair-inducing!"
Clearly, everyone was deeply shaken by the One-Eyed Species' strength!
They truly tasted what despair meant!
Jiangnan grinned.
(๑՞◡՞) "Alright! Don't scare yourselves! The outcome is still undecided; we're all just cattle and horses!"
"We don't know exactly what's going on yet. I don't know about the rest!"
"But I do know that in the outpost at the Kira Crater of the One-Eyed Species, there must be a lot of Origin Sparks, hehehe~"
"Let's go! Let's take a stroll around their nest!"
As he spoke, he pulled another lunar rover out of the Alternate Dimension!
Li Bing's mouth twitched. What a big heart Jiangnan had!
He wasn't worried at all about how strong the One-Eyed Species was?
And he was still thinking about Origin Sparks?
Chen Daoyi was stunned: "Uh... is that how the saying goes?"
Jiangnan rolled his eyes: (꒪ัд꒪ั*) "What do you care? The meaning is roughly right anyway!"
Just then, Jiang Tianchen's hoarse voice came through the public channel!
"Don't go to Kira Crater. It's too dangerous. You're carrying the star map..."
"If it's not possible, come back first. Open the Star Gate, and then... we'll think of something!"
Jiangnan grinned and sat on the lunar rover.
(乛ٹ乛。) "Hey hey hey! What are you talking about? This is nothing! The One-Eyed Species is strong? I don't think it's that strong; it's manageable!"
"We didn't catch a sample? Then go catch one again. Encounter a problem, solve the problem!"
"Do you think I'll just slink back like this? I won't be satisfied! 'The general in the field is not bound by the sovereign's orders!'"
"If we give up, then humanity really is hopeless!"
As he spoke, the lunar rover started up, and the Zhonghua team set off again toward Kira Crater!
Jiang Tianchen was stunned. If we give up, humanity really is hopeless?
Clearly, Jiangnan understood better than anyone the responsibility on his shoulders!
Yang Jian's expression hardened: "True courage is never about being fearless and charging recklessly; it's the determination to do what you know is impossible!"
"Back in those five years of the spirit calamity, we got through such hard times. What's a mere One-Eyed Species?"
Each word fell into everyone's hearts. The confidence that had been shaken by the One-Eyed Species began to solidify again!
Nothing to fear!
They would always find a solution!
Although dealing with that One-Eyed Species had wasted a lot of time, with Jiangnan's driving habits, they still caught up with the One-Eyed Species' transport convoy!
Kira Crater was not far ahead. Jiangnan watched the transport convoy enter the crater!
To prevent the One-Eyed Species from having abilities like clairvoyance or penetration—
Jiangnan put away the lunar rover early and led the team stealthily behind an impact crater, sneaking a peek at the One-Eyed Species' city outpost!
Regardless of anything else, they had to get their hands on the Origin Sparks!
This was crucial to whether humanity could break through the racial barrier!
