Throwing a steel coil at supersonic speed with one hand, you let me travel through the heavens!

"Based on the yield strength of ordinary steel, this theoretical value can only reach 1500 tons."

"Fortunately, I enlarged the steel coil simultaneously, which kept the inner steel strip within a safe stress range. In this way, the weight of the steel coil was no longer constrained by the yielding of the steel, but by its own gravity."

"This gravitational force will cause the steel coil to collapse inward, forming a solid metal sphere!"

The boy flicked a steel coil coin with his finger, pondering and analyzing the theoretical upper limit of the coil's weight—

100 million megatons!

He can only use the Ruyi Jingu Bang (a magical staff) to turn steel coils into megatons.

Once this mass is exceeded, the steel coil will be compressed into a metal sphere by its own gravity, and then crushed into a pulp.

Hmm... I bet there won't even be any meat sauce left.

"A steel coil the size of 100 million megatons is already a super-large steel coil of a small planetary scale. I can't even find a foothold. I can only try in the vast and boundless universe."

"In the universe, I'm not afraid of being crushed by the 'steel coil' that collapses into a giant metal sphere, but without the shape of a steel coil, I can't throw it away. Instead, I'm trapped by the gravity of the 'steel coil planet'."

"Therefore, we need to control the critical value of 100 million megatons; once the steel coil shows signs of collapse, it will stop growing!"

Wei Qingzhou had a sudden inspiration: if he were between the Earth and the Moon, he could use the power of the Ruyi Jingu Bang to turn a steel coil into 100 trillion tons and then smash it into the Sky Rift at the speed of sound, could he kill or expel the evil beings?

After calculating the data, he regretfully discovered that it was mostly impossible.

Even a 100-megaton steel coil, when struck at supersonic speeds, would only be 137 times more powerful than an asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs. It could destroy all life on Earth, instantly shatter massive amounts of crust, reshape the land and oceans, and completely alter the Earth's surface, but it couldn't destroy a planet.

"This evil being, although it feeds on life-bearing planets, may not be powerful enough to destroy a planet, so it's worth a try."

A flame reignited in Wei Qingzhou's heart.

At least the combination of the Ruyi Jingu Bang (magic staff) and the sonic throw of a steel coil with one hand gave him a glimmer of hope and another way to solve the problem.

"Looking at it from another angle, even if we can't defeat the evil god, 'Exploding Moon' is definitely not a problem."

"Since the problem lies with the moon, wouldn't smashing the moon prevent the evil god from descending?"

"But the situation after the moon exploded doesn't seem to be much better."

"After the moon is smashed by the steel coil, it will form a ring of debris around the blue planet, and the blue planet will then face thousands of years of meteorite bombardment and climate apocalypse."

"Even if I use steel coils to clear the debris ring, the blue planet without the moon will have problems with its axis, the tides will decrease significantly, and all the consequences are unpredictable."

As the saying goes, "pulling a single hair can affect the whole body," let alone the moon, which is not just "a single hair."

"Damn it! It's all the evil god's fault. Why did he have to invade Earth? Couldn't he have gone to another world?"

Wei Qingzhou racked his brains, feeling like his head was about to explode, only to realize that his strength was too insignificant and his wisdom too shallow.

The problem was right in front of him, and the answer was simple, but when it came to actually solving it, he deeply understood what it meant to be like a mayfly trying to shake a tree or a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

On the blank exam paper, he could only write the word "Solution".

Wei Qingzhou could always find a pretentious quote in the novel:

To kill a god with a mortal body!

But how can a mortal being kill a god?

"Meow~"

Just then, a cat meowed from behind.

He turned around abruptly and saw an inconspicuous tabby cat pacing on the concrete wall of the rooftop, its tail held high, its cold, blue eyes staring at him.

This tabby cat has yellow and white fur, is smaller than a domestic cat, has sparse fur, and is so thin that its ribs are clearly visible under its skin, making it look harmless.

Orange cat?

It doesn't seem quite right.

But if it's called a three-flower design, then one color is missing.

Wei Qingzhou remembered seeing this tabby cat at the gate of the Sunshine Garden residential area. Why was it here?

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

Without hesitation, the boy unleashed his ultimate move, throwing a 30-ton steel coil at them.

"Bang"

A loud bang exploded on the rooftop terrace. The hot-rolled steel coil rolled over the concrete retaining wall, followed a parabolic trajectory, and crashed into the building opposite.

The tabby cat easily dodged, and the shockwaves created by the steel coil couldn't harm it.

It jumped aside and spoke in human language: "Why did you kill Grandma Zhou? Grandma Zhou was such a good person, why did you kill her!?"

The encyclopedia had been automatically updated, and Wei Qingzhou quickly glanced at it.

【三花】

[Rank: Low-level Demon]

【introduce:???】

Damn it, another demon!

Are demons so worthless? I ran into two so easily!

Without saying a word, he raised his hand and continued to smash the hot-rolled steel coils one after another.

"Bang bang bang"

The rooftop continued to shake and explode, with steel coils shooting out in all directions. The surrounding cement walls were all blasted into fragments, but the cat was no longer in the same spot the moment the steel coil left its hand, effortlessly dodging the attack.

It landed on the ventilation duct on the other side of the rooftop, tilted its head to look at him, its tail held straight up, and asked in a shrill voice, "Why!?"

Wei Qingzhou's heart sank to the bottom.

Agile, just like the cat-faced old lady!

They can't hit you with a barrage of steel coils, and they're even worse at close combat.

He planned to take out the giant steel rod he had previously ordered and try it out with the Ruyi Jingu Bang. If it failed, he would log out of the instance and return to the real world.

"call out"

Suddenly, a sharp, piercing sound came from the side.

An arrow wreathed in black and red flames pierced the sky, its tip aimed directly at the tabby cat.

The tabby cat dodged by a hair's breadth, but the arrow still embedded itself in the concrete floor of the rooftop, its fletching still trembling violently.

The sudden attack startled both the person and the cat, who turned to look in the direction from which the arrow had come.

On the rooftop of the building next door, at the edge of the terrace, stood a humanoid creature.

He was shrouded in a black and red aura, making it impossible to see his face or figure. All that could be felt was a mountain-like sense of oppression.

At first glance.

It was as if the entire rooftop was ablaze, with a massive ball of flame rising and spreading out, like the face of a demon god, its huge, indifferent eyes looking down at the man and the cat from mid-air.

Very strong!

Even better than the cat-faced old lady!!

Wei Qingzhou's pupils contracted slightly, and he immediately made a judgment in his mind.

But considering that the other party might have attacked the tabby cat, there might be another reason behind it, so he calmed down and did not log out of the instance world.

"Meow!!!"

The tabby cat stared at the other cat, its fur standing on end, and let out a sharp meow from deep in its throat.

The next moment, its body suddenly split into two completely different solid-colored cats.

A yellow cat and a white cat.

The two cats landed on the rooftop, arching their backs and hissing threateningly at the fiery figure.

"Yellow, white, and 'Grandma Zhou's' black... a tricolor..."

"I see!!"

The moment Wei Qingzhou saw the cat split apart, all the scattered clues in his mind came together.

The reason why "Grandma Zhou" turned into a cat-faced old woman is mostly because of this cat!

It transferred its power to Grandma Zhou, and the two merged to create the evil cat-faced old woman.

The reason they became demons was probably because their obsessions ran too deep.

Grandma Zhou has her own obsessions, and this calico cat also has its own obsessions.

"This is a feud between him and me, don't interfere. I'm going to avenge Grandma Zhou!!"

The two cat demons roared in unison.

The kitten's voice, which was originally a bit childish, now sounded like a ghost wailing!

"What if I intervene?"

The fiery figure spoke softly, its voice calm and indifferent, sometimes near, sometimes far, making it impossible to tell whether it was male or female.

"Hiss—then die!!"

Both cats hissed simultaneously, arching their backs, puffing up their fur, and pressing their ears back, their rough and fierce growls exploding out.

The white cat made the first move, pouncing towards the adjacent building. Its body rapidly expanded in mid-air, growing from the size of a wildcat into a monster tens of meters tall in the blink of an eye. It swung its huge cat claws and fiercely grabbed at the fiery figure on the rooftop.

At the same time, the yellow cat rushed towards Wei Qingzhou at such a speed that even his dynamic vision could only barely catch a yellow afterimage.

To know.

Wei Qingzhou has already enhanced his eyes with his mental energy, greatly improving his dynamic vision to a level far exceeding that of ordinary people.

"Little kitten, you've chosen the wrong target for your revenge!"

"It's the evil god who made the world a mess!"

He grabbed a handful of rolled coins with both hands and threw them all out haphazardly.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Each steel coin is fired at supersonic speed. With so many coins, the power and coverage are much greater than that of a shotgun. Even though the feline evil creature is agile and fast, it is not easy for it to dodge the area-of-effect attack.

But the yellow cat didn't even try to dodge; its fur grew wildly, forming a special fur armor that easily blocked the steel-coiled coin attack.

"You annoying human, your moves are nothing special."

The yellow cat taunted, flashing past like lightning, already close in, its sharp claws hidden in its paws popping out, and swung them at Wei Qingzhou's neck, ready to slit his throat.

"brush"

Three crescent-shaped beams of blood-red light swept across, cutting Wei Qingzhou into four equal parts and smoothly slicing through the concrete retaining wall behind him. The light blades flew a thousand meters away before fading and dissipating.

The smile still lingered on the corners of Wei Qingzhou's mouth as he was divided into four parts.

wrong!

That's just an afterimage!!

The real Wei Qingzhou, in the split second before he could dodge, activated his "I am a cat" ability, shrinking in an instant into a small black cat, lying on the ground, easily avoiding the yellow cat's claws.

"How is that possible?"

The yellow cat, "Golden Flash," flashed past, leaping to the side. Turning back, it saw the black cat that had appeared out of nowhere on the ground, and its round, vertical pupils suddenly contracted.

"Why...why did you turn into a cat?!"

"You filthy human, how did you do that? And why are you of the same kind as me?"

"Meow (You don't need to know)!"

The cat that Wei Qingzhou transformed into was not an evil spirit. It could not speak human language, but could only meow, which the yellow cat could understand.

Taking advantage of the moment when the yellow cat was stunned and distracted, Wei Qingzhou seized the opportunity, retrieved a hot-rolled steel coil from the system space, and with a wave of the cat's paw, the 30-ton hot-rolled steel coil flew out at supersonic speed and hit the yellow cat solidly.

But the scene I had envisioned—the yellow cat being smashed into a bloody mist—did not happen!

The yellow cat was as soft as a boneless rag, like a clump of fleshless fur, flat and tightly pressed against the hot-rolled steel coil, and flew out with it.

Just as it ascended to an altitude of a thousand meters, a skin-like yellow cat opened its mouth and suddenly inhaled, "poof," inflating into a huge balloon and forcefully bouncing itself off the steel coil.

"Human, you have angered me!"

Immediately afterwards, the yellow cat opened its mouth and exhaled, releasing the air from its belly with a "whoosh," propelling it rapidly back to the ground from the high sky.

Wei Qingzhou was stunned: "Is 'Tom and Jerry' really a documentary?"

"System, can I turn into Talking Tom?"

"Doraemon is fine too."

【…】

When they were still dozens of meters from the rooftop, the yellow cat meowed, its mouth stretching to its ears, and suddenly opened wide, transforming into a gaping maw covered in sharp teeth, which lunged at Wei Qingzhou.

Wei Qingzhou also transformed the little black cat back into human form. He took out a giant steel rod resembling the Ruyi Jingu Bang from the system space, preparing to unleash the [Ruyi Jingu Bang] technique. He lengthened the giant steel rod and shoved it hard into the yellow cat's throat, giving it a free nucleic acid test.

"Your opponent is me."

Just then.

The fiery figure standing on the roof of the adjacent building suddenly had a vertical crack appear on its forehead.

The vertical slit opened to both sides, revealing a scarlet eye.

The vertical eye had no pupil, only a burning flame.

"brush"

A burst of fire shot out, transforming into a fan-shaped red beam that swept across the area, instantly freezing the yellow cat in mid-air.

"A third eye? A freeze spell?"

Wei Qingzhou, who was about to unleash his "Ruyi Jingu Bang" (a magical staff), was taken aback.

He turned to look at the rooftop next door and discovered that the white cat that had pounced on the fiery figure had vanished into thin air, as if it had been instantly killed, leaving not even a trace behind.

soon.

Wei Qingzhou now knew how the white cat had died.

The fiery figure froze the yellow cat, then stretched out its hands and quickly formed a hand seal.

To be precise, this is not a Taoist or Buddhist incantation, but rather a "hand shadow".

He placed his hands together, his two thumbs crossed and raised, his index fingers bent and his little fingers spread out downwards, resembling a dog with its mouth open.

He gestured towards the yellow cat in mid-air and whispered a single word:

"swallow."

Suddenly.

The sky and earth were like a curtain, and suddenly a huge black shadow with a dog's head appeared on the curtain, then opened its mouth and swallowed forward.

The yellow cat, which had grown to be tens of meters tall, looked as tiny as a candy bean in front of the giant dog's head, and was swallowed up by the black shadow from head to tail.

Then, the shadow disappeared.

As for the yellow cat, it disappeared without a trace, without any remains, not even a single hair was left behind.

What... what is this?

Hand shadow puppetry?

Supernatural powers?

Spell?

Who exactly is this person?!

Wei Qingzhou, who witnessed the whole thing, was dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.

He felt like a primitive man who only knew how to throw stones, suddenly stumbled upon someone with a gun.

The difference is too big!

It was so large that it didn't seem like an evil being at all, but more like a deity cultivating Taoist arts.

The black and red flames burning all over its body were not evil energy at all; they were clearly formed from purple energy, only so dense that it was almost black.

"Who are you?"

Wei Qingzhou asked loudly.

The other person glanced at him and prepared to leave.

"Yang Xi—"

"Is that you?"

The boy shouted out his innermost guess.

However, the opponent didn't even pause, and directly transformed into a ball of fire with the wind, burning half the sky red, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.

"To instantly kill a demon, it must be a great demon."

Wei Qingzhou opened the [Illustrated Compendium], but it hadn't been updated.

This means that the other party has already appeared in the [Illustrated Guide].

The only one with that kind of power is the entry whose name is full of question marks.

"Yang Xi, is that really you? How did you become such a great demon?"

The boy muttered to himself.

Of course, this conclusion was just his guess, because apart from Yang Xi, he really couldn't think of a second candidate.
