Gao Wu: After transforming into a soft girl, I became a calamity?

That icy blue lightning bolt was like a sword of heaven and earth, tearing open the dark sky in an instant and heading straight for the Ghost Buddha!

What?!

Xu Xiaoan's face stiffened.

Judging by its power, it's definitely a full-force attack from an eighth-tier opponent!

"Can the strongest reach the eighth rank?"

During her time recuperating amidst the sea of ​​flowers, she crammed a lot of information and naturally heard about those powerful calamities.

However, the information only states that the [Overturning Flood] has the ability to create clones, but its effects, power, and duration of existence are unknown.

After all, its main body is already powerful enough, so it rarely uses this ability to create clones.

However, if it can exist for a long time, it would be more than enough to protect the "apocalypse".

"Xiao An, what's wrong?"

Jiang Mian turned her head, looked at her with some confusion and concern in her eyes.

Xu Xiaoan's expression changed, as if she had been frightened by the sudden danger, and she cried out:

"Waaah... Is it possible for us to never go back?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chenyang and Yin Mengyao couldn't help but turn to look at her.

Even Shen Qiuyu, who maintained her aloof demeanor, glanced sideways and her lips twitched, but she ultimately held back.

There was no way around it; knowing that Xu Xiaoan was an undercover agent, hearing this made me inexplicably want to laugh.

Yin Mengyao coughed lightly, quickly averted her gaze, and pretended to provide Ye Chenyang with mental support to break through the barrier.

Ye Chenyang continued his work without changing his expression, as if the strange Buddha above him did not exist.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoan shrank back and hid behind Jiang Mian, remaining silent.

Although I don't know what I said wrong,

But if you just bury your head in the sand and try to minimize your presence, you should be able to get away with it.

As expected, Ye Chenyang and the others did not pay much attention to it, and the responsibility of comforting Xu Xiaoan naturally fell to Jiang Mian.

Jiang Mian patted her back, then gently tidied her messy hair, and said softly:

"Okay, Xiao An, everything will be alright."

She didn't explain further.

After all, the person has already been deceived, and since they are not truly unaware, they will automatically fill in the blanks with their own explanations.

This combo left Xu Xiaoan somewhat bewildered.

She looked up at Jiang Mian's face, a gentle smile on his delicate features, as if... glowing?

"No, no, what am I thinking!"

Xu Xiaoan suddenly realized that she had just had a rather dangerous thought.

Logically speaking, since her essence is calamity, it's impossible for her to feel any affection for a human.

Could it be due to this personality?

Maybe.

She chose this personality in order to appear weak to the enemy.

But since it was directly imprinted from the souls it had previously devoured, there's no guarantee that no problems might arise.

Just to be on the safe side, I should replace this personality whenever I have time, and destroy this memory along with it.

Jiang Mian is indeed extraordinary; no wonder she is the woman who could make [Eternal Day] fall into her trap and even willingly hand over the inheritance mark.

It's terrifying how easy it is to get caught up in something like this!

Her wariness of Jiang Mian increased even further.

Even if she lacked strength, it was still quite outrageous that such a subtle, insidious attack could inflict a calamity upon her.

Jiang Mian was unaware of the turmoil in Xu Xiaoan's heart and said nothing more.

Xu Xiao's installation did resemble it, but she didn't think a [Chaos] Calamity would have emotions.

So she only put in a little effort and was just putting on an act.

Jiang Mian looked up at the sky.

Although it had returned to complete darkness, to her, who possessed some of the power of [Formless], it was no different from daytime.

The strange Buddha was blasted apart by the torrent's self-destruction, with most of its body shattered and only its head remaining.

But for him, the injury was not fatal.

The broken half of the body writhed, its flesh churning as if alive, slowly regenerating at a visible speed.

The strength needed for recovery comes from the city beneath their feet.

Through his senses, Jiang Mian "saw" the residents aging at a visible rate, turning from adults to the elderly in seconds, and then turning into dust.

However, they seemed not to see it, remaining kneeling in place, muttering incantations.

Within seconds, the entire city went from being bustling to deathly silent.

All living humans were reduced to ashes.

The grotesque Buddha stretched out his arms behind his back and looked coldly at the group.

A hand as large as a mountain, carrying immense pressure, descended upon them.

It was as if a single strike could wipe them, along with the entire city, off the map.

"Snap!"

Ye Chenyang finally broke through the barrier in front of him, but it seemed to be too late.

At that moment, the movement of everything around them suddenly slowed down.

Jiang Mian opened the spatial portal and took out another black dragon clone.

It expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, growing to the point of blotting out the sky within three seconds.

Time resumed its flow.

The torrent let out a dragon's roar that shook the heavens and the earth, sending ripples through the surrounding darkness.

Then, its body transformed into a streak of icy blue lightning, shooting towards the Ghost Buddha!

This attack was not just a simple self-destruction; it also included the eighth-tier skill [Overwhelming Torrent], [Cataclysmic Heavenly Might].

The effect is simple: it generates a large-scale thunderstorm, and the stronger the target's vitality, the higher the additional damage.

It can be said that, except for its less effective effect on the [Death] calamity, it is a nightmare ability for all powerful individuals.

However, this clone's ability is limited; it can only generate one bolt of lightning, greatly reducing the skill's range.

The grotesque Buddha had clearly noticed this when it took the hit head-on.

He was trying to activate the power of shadows within the domain to confuse its sense of direction.

However, time was delayed again.

One second is enough for the torrent to get close to him!

In the strange Buddha's perception, Hong Liu's figure appeared as if in a flash, instantly arriving in front of him.

Before he could even react, cracks appeared on the body of the black dragon in front of him, from which icy blue light shone.

"boom!"

The shockwave from the explosion was deafening, and the dazzling ice-blue lightning illuminated the entire city once again.

Xu Xiaoan looked at this scene with a serious expression in his eyes.

She didn't see anything clearly. In a flash, the black dragon appeared, and in another flash, it ran up to Wuming and exploded.

What kind of operation is this?

Even if she's not high-level, she should be able to see everything clearly, right?

It's like... the time for the middle action was taken away.

Xu Xiaoan secretly sized up Shen Qiuyu.

The other person seemed to sense something and looked back at her with a cold gaze, which frightened her so much that she quickly lowered her head and dared not make any more small movements.

She made a mental note of it, then silently followed the others out of the city, no longer caring about Wuming's current state.

This guy isn't of much use.

Even with some of the flesh and blood of the first generation [Formless], it is still at the bottom of the eighth tier.

After all, staying in this small place for so long has led to severe malnutrition.

After an unknown period of continuous running, the five entered a forest.

The surrounding trees were twisted in shape, with eerie black trunks but unusually lush leaves.

"Brother Ye, you guys set up camp first, I have something to say to Xiao An."

After a short rest, Jiang Mian pulled Xu Xiaoan aside and addressed the group.

"it is good."

Ye Chenyang gave the two of them a meaningful look, then nodded.

"Okay, let's go over there."

Yin Mengyao took the lead and walked towards a clearing in the woods.

As she passed by Xu Xiaoan, she suddenly stopped and gave Xu Xiaoan a look that was neither a smile nor a frown.

Xu Xiaoan felt a sense of foreboding.

"Keep it up!"

Yin Mengyao left without looking back after uttering this ambiguous remark.

Shen Qiuyu glanced at her as well, then followed without saying a word.

What's going on?!

Isn't Shen Qiuyu the one who wrote "The End of the World"?

Why do they all seem to listen to Jiang Mian?

She was about to back away when her shoulder was gently pressed down.

Jiang Mian looked at Xu Xiaoan with a smile, appearing gentle and harmless.

But that smile sent a chill down Xu Xiaoan's spine, as if she had encountered her nemesis.

She, [without form], actually felt "fear"?

Are you kidding me!

Jiang Mian leaned slightly closer to her ear and whispered:

"Xiao An, you don't want them to discover your identity as [Wu Xiang], do you?"
