Chapter 331: Introduce Yourself

Deep under the sea, the dark and quiet environment was suddenly broken by a low vibration.

Suddenly, the giant crater on the seabed was torn apart, and hot magma gushed out from the cracks.

When the magma came into contact with the cold sea water, a dazzling white light burst out. The gas and volcanic ash produced by the volcanic eruption rose rapidly, forming a huge water column in the sea, gushing to the sea surface and even rushing into the sky.

The loud explosion spread in the water, as if the entire seabed was roaring.

The flow of magma formed red-hot lava rivers on the seabed, boiling the sea water wherever it went, producing large amounts of bubbles and steam.

In the giant volcano that is violently erupting, Wang Ju is painfully enduring the impact of the mighty force of nature.

How powerful is a loud volcanic eruption?

In the world of Shen Cheng's previous generation, the energy released by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD was estimated to be equivalent to 100000 Hiroshima atomic bombs.

The eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia in 1815 was the most violent volcanic eruption ever recorded in human history, directly causing the global average temperature to drop by more than 1 degree Celsius and resulting in the so-called "year without a summer" in the following years.

In other words, the energy released when a giant volcano erupts can even affect an entire planet, which is something even legends cannot do.

In the face of the terrifying power of nature, the power of the individual is still insignificant.

Shen Cheng couldn't estimate whether the power of the current giant volcanic eruption could catch up with the two examples mentioned above, but he was very clear about one thing: under such terrible power, neither he nor Wang Ju could fully withstand it.

Energy equivalent to that of thousands of nuclear bombs exploding simultaneously erupted from cracks in the earth's crust, building up pressure along the tiny pipes of the volcano and triggering a terrifying torrent of energy.

Wang Ju and Shen Cheng were hit by this devastating energy almost at the same time.

The difference is that Wang Ju was below and Shen Cheng was above, and Wang Ju was forced to block most of the force of the volcanic eruption for Shen Cheng.

If they were just swept away during the eruption and then washed out, Wang Ju and Shen Cheng would still be able to bear it.

But at the moment when Wang Ju was hit by the volcanic energy, Shen Cheng also released the energy absorbed to the limit in his core furnace and hit Wang Ju from above.

In other words, Wang Ju was attacked from both sides by two forces at the same time.

Below was the devastating volcanic force, and above was Shen Cheng's all-out attack.

Wang Ju was trapped in the middle and unable to move. Under the rush of the extremely terrifying energy torrent, his body was almost reduced to ashes in an instant.

Wang Ju's extremely powerful self-healing ability allowed his body to recover quickly, but it was destroyed again during the recovery process.

In just a few seconds, Wang Ju experienced hundreds and thousands of destructions and rebirths, and the source blood in his body was consumed at an extremely fast speed.

In a very short period of time, Shen Cheng released all the power in the core furnace.

After that, he could no longer suppress Wang Ju, and was swept away along with him by the energy torrent of the volcanic eruption.

Shen Cheng himself was not feeling well either. His body was destroyed more than a dozen times in a row in an instant, but with Wang Ju blocking him, he only suffered minor injuries.

Both sides went with the flow and were pushed upward by the volcanic lava. Finally, they were pushed out of the crater and came to the sea surface along the huge water column.

The erupting volcano created huge waves on the sea surface, and thick smoke billowed into the sky like a mushroom cloud, and one could even see flames burning and lightning flashing inside.

The originally clear sky turned pitch black. Countless volcanic ashes were pushed into the sky by the terrifying energy, turning the day into night.

Volcanic ash begins to fall from the sky like snow. It will rise to an altitude of tens or even hundreds of kilometers, and drift hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away with the flow of the atmosphere.

Shen Cheng flew into the air and looked up at the huge column of smoke that reached the sky and the earth, as well as the scene of the sky and the earth changing color.

Originally, he thought he had mastered the power to change his destiny, and he would not be afraid even if he encountered a legend.

But today, when I personally came into contact with the power of nature, I realized how insignificant I am.

After striking a blow to the pride and complacency in his heart, Shen Cheng looked down and saw Wang Ju drifting on the sea.

Wang Ju floated in the rolling sea water, his body was riddled with holes, and he was forced to withdraw from his true form.

The source blood in his body has been completely consumed. Although he still has a large amount of eternal blood, the amount of eternal blood is too small after all. What truly maintains his entire existence is still the source blood.

Now that his source blood has been completely consumed, Wang Ju has stepped into the gates of hell.

Unless left alone like this, he would have the possibility to recover little by little with the few drops of remaining source blood.

Of course Shen Cheng would not give such an opportunity. He came directly in front of Wang Ju, raised his hand towards him, and prepared to finish him off.

Wang Ju was still conscious, staring at Shen Cheng with his eyes fixed, and gnashing his teeth, "Boy, you won unfairly."

From Wang Ju's extremely weak voice, one can hear his extreme grief and anger at the moment.

In a head-on battle, Wang Ju will never lose to Shen Cheng, and his chance of winning is even higher.

However, Shen Cheng actually used the power of the volcanic eruption to defeat Wang Ju in one breath, leaving him with all his strength but unable to use it.

This is not the point. The point is that the reason why Wang Ju foolishly stepped into the trap was because his thinking and emotions were disturbed.

At this moment, Wang Ju had come to his senses and realized that he had been influenced and made an extremely stupid choice without anyone noticing.

This kid not only has the ability to manipulate energy, but also the ability to interfere with emotions.

That's why he scolded Shen Chengsheng for being unfair.

Before, you had the nerve to call me an old fox. I really want to get a mirror so that you can look at yourself and see who is the old fox.

"You are already quite old, don't you know that means are also part of strength?"

Shen Cheng gathered energy towards Wang Ju's palm and said, "Admit defeat obediently and don't cheat."

"Yes, means are also part of strength..."

Wang Ju opened his mouth and showed a weak smile: "This is the boy you mentioned, so don't blame me for playing tricks."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ju's appearance began to change.

"Do you know why I dare to come to you alone? Because I hold the winning card in my hand."

Seeing the changes in Wang Ju's body, Shen Cheng acted without hesitation. The condensed energy shot out from his palm and hit Wang Ju's chest.

Wang Ju's already shattered body could not withstand the blow and was torn into pieces on the spot.

However, after his body was shattered, a mass of eternal blood was left behind which was still wriggling and rapidly expanding under Shen Cheng's gaze.

Shen Cheng immediately launched a second attack, but it had no effect on the Eternal Blood.

In the blink of an eye, this ball of eternal blood turned into a young man in front of Shen Cheng. The young man was dressed in black, had smooth hair, and had a gentle and handsome appearance. At first glance, he was the type with a good temper.

As soon as he saw the appearance of this young man, Shen Cheng felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

He had seen photos of the three blood kings at Xiao Hei's place and knew what they looked like.

The gentle and elegant young man in front of him was Qin Hao, one of the three blood kings and the supreme ruler of the Qin Kingdom.

Shen Cheng had guessed that Wang Ju might have some hidden tricks up his sleeve, but he never expected that Wang Ju would actually hide his immediate superior inside his body.

A blood king, a person with legendary abilities, is enough to make all of Shen Cheng's plans come to naught.

After Qin Hao emerged from Wang Ju's body, he first looked around at the volcanic eruption scene, and finally locked his eyes on Shen Cheng and asked, "Who are you?!"

Shen Cheng did not turn around and run immediately. Instead, after a brief moment of surprise, he calmed down completely.

He was 100% sure that the Qin Hao in front of him was definitely not the real Qin Hao, at least not the complete Qin Hao.

If there really was a Blood King in charge, the Qin King's territory would not have responded passively when facing the attack of Yongle City that disregarded casualties.

If Qin Hao was still alive, Wang Ju would never have risked coming alone to stop Shen Cheng, nor would he have waited until he was about to die before asking his immediate superior to take action.

Seeing Shen Cheng remained silent, Qin Hao frowned slightly: "Why don't you answer?"

Shen Cheng retorted: "Shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking others?"

Qin Hao felt a little surprised and even suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Is there anyone in this Eternal Empire who doesn't know me? How dare they ask me to introduce myself?

Qin Hao subconsciously looked around again. He began to wonder if Wang Ju had brought him abroad, which was why he met people who didn't know him.

Qin Hao not only looks gentle and refined, but also has a reasonable temper. He confirmed with Shen Cheng again: "Do you know me?"

Shen Cheng nodded: "Of course, Blood King Qin Hao, one of the three leaders of the Eternal Empire, how could I not know him."

Qin Hao was surprised and asked: "Since you know me, you still want me to introduce myself?"

Shen Cheng laughed: "Don't you think it's a very fulfilling thing to let a blood king introduce himself?"

Qin Hao's gentle expression sank slightly: "Aren't you afraid of death?"

"Of course I'm afraid. If it's the real Qin Hao, I will get as far away as possible at the first moment."

Shen Cheng looked at him with burning eyes: "But you are not, right?"

Qin Hao smiled faintly and did not deny: "That's right, I am not the real Qin Hao, I am just an insurance he left for Wang Ju."

Twenty-one years ago, Qin Hao learned about the existence of the special space through Du Tianming. Before entering the special space, he left a safety net for Wang Ju, which was a clone of Qin Hao.

The clone usually sleeps in Wang Ju's body and will only wake up when Wang Ju's life is threatened.

After waking up, Qin Hao thought he would see some old friends or acquaintances, but he didn't expect to see a strange guy.

Wang Ju is getting worse as he gets older. He actually lost to a kid like this.

As for why Wang Ju was defeated and what the current situation of King Qin was, Qin Hao didn't want to ask. He was just a clone and would disappear soon, so he had no interest in thinking too much about it.

"Although I am just a clone, I can do a lot."

Qin Hao's body slowly rose up, and in a blink of an eye he surpassed Shen Cheng, looking down at him: "Since you can defeat Wang Ju, I will tell you the truth. I can only attack once now, but the power is no different from the real Qin Hao. Whether you can block this attack depends on your own strength."

Shen Cheng asked: "Is it too late for me to run now?"

"late."

Qin Hao raised his right hand and pointed a finger at Shen Cheng: "When you appear in my eyes, you can't run away, unless you can teleport to the other side of the world in one breath."

Shen Cheng didn't hold out any luck.

He took a deep breath, and instead of feeling any fear, he felt eager to try.

Previously, in the underground space of Yongle City, Jin Yan used the emotional energy accumulated in Yongle City for more than ten years to launch a legendary attack on Shen Cheng.

At that time, Shen Cheng relied on mind magic and used tricks to dodge.

Now facing Qin Hao's clone, Shen Cheng no longer has any tricks to dodge and can only choose to confront it head-on.

And he was full of anticipation, wanting to know whether he could withstand the legend's blow.

Pitch-black armor appeared out of nowhere and covered Shen Cheng's body, instantly turning him into a demon lord from hell.

A force that seemed to be tangible burst out from his body, forming a storm far greater than the one Wang Ju had just experienced. Even the volcano erupting in the distance was affected to a certain extent.

When the resentment accumulates to 90%, the strength of the demon armor also reaches an extremely astonishing level.

Therefore, Shen Cheng did not use it easily, unless it was a life-and-death situation like now.

When Qin Hao saw Shen Cheng summon the demon armor, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

As a clone, his strength is not as strong as the original body, but his eyesight is not bad. He can tell at a glance how strong Shen Cheng is at the moment.

No wonder Wang Ju lost to the opponent.

"It seems that my original body has been trapped for too long, and I didn't even know that such a young talent appeared in the empire."

A little light appeared on Qin Hao's fingertips. It was very faint at first, just like a dim star in the dark night.

Shen Cheng did not dare to be careless at all. Under the perception of the demon armor, the energy concentration at Qin Hao's fingertips was rapidly increasing.

It expanded so rapidly that in just a few tenths of a second it transformed from a dim star into a vast star hanging in the sky at noon, emitting infinite light and heat.

But this is only in perception. In Shen Cheng's vision, the light at Qin Hao's fingertips is still dim, like a candle that may go out at any time, full of deception.

When Qin Hao condensed his energy to the limit, the light at his fingertips suddenly became brighter.

This light directly overshadowed the entire world.

In Shen Cheng's vision, the sky and the earth lost their color in an instant, only Qin Hao's fingertips were still shining, and a dazzling light shot towards him.

　There are always a lot of people in big hospitals. I have been waiting till now since this morning and just got home. After the examination, the doctor said it was bronchitis caused by a viral infection. ε=(ο｀*))) Alas.
