As far as the eye could see, the vision was occupied by thick electric arcs like serpents. The dazzling flash almost burned into the retina.
A strong burnt smell permeated the air. A large amount of oxygen was transformed into ozone under the effect of high voltage current.
The release of the current only lasted for a few seconds. The power station’s leakage protection automatically cut off the power supply.
Even so, the rampant high-voltage electric arc still caused terrifying damage.
Flammable materials were ignited and burned quietly. Li Mu threw the high-energy battery in his hand to the ground and walked slowly on the ash-covered ground.
The eye, which served as a vessel, still hung in mid-air, but it was already at the end of its strength.
It had not completely released its power before being continuously hit by several high-voltage electric arcs. If it were just an ordinary electric arc, it wouldn’t have caused such devastating damage, but with Li Mu’s psychic energy, it was a completely different story.
The existence in the sky could no longer sense the alien psychic energy and slowly disappeared back into the sky.
Before the eye completely dissipated, Li Mu grabbed it and held it in his hand.
The highly corrosive residual psychic energy made him feel as if he was holding a red-hot piece of coal.
【Item detected, extracting…】
A string of worm-like text appeared at the bottom of his vision.
The already weak eye suddenly struggled violently as if it was revived, and it was almost impossible to clamp it down.
【Target resisting, do you want to consume source essence to forcibly convert?】
As he expected, the Exile Realm could also convert this vessel that bore the power of Dalopitda.
Li Mu confirmed, and the source essence stored in the Exile Realm from the recent killings was quickly consumed, just like it was connected to a water pump.
Now, Li Mu found it more and more difficult to obtain source essence. First, the main enemies had become fourth-level awakeners, and most of the source essence in their souls had been transformed into psychic energy. Second, after Li Mu’s psychic energy became stronger, killing enemies would cause a large amount of source essence to dissipate.
Just like this battle, the electric current mixed with psychic energy almost evaporated all the source essence.
Fortunately, this vessel was the biggest gain.
Soon, the vessel turned into ashes and dispersed in the wind in his palm.
【Illusion Breaker Eyes: Steal the power from the Lord of Souls and elevate your vision beyond the ordinary.】
Suddenly, Li Mu’s eyes were filled with a coldness that almost froze his eyes. If it weren’t for the fact that he had practiced the Divine Eye Energy technique, and his eyes’ toughness far exceeded that of ordinary people, he might not have been able to endure this bone-chilling cold without showing any signs.
After a while, the coldness slowly dissipated.
After practicing the Divine Eye Energy Technique, Li Mu’s eyesight had already surpassed that of many ordinary awakened individuals, and after obtaining the Illusion Breaker Eyes, he advanced even further.
He could see more and even no longer relied on receiving light to observe the world.
Holding the Blade of Annihilation with both hands, he tilted the blade, and a devastating flame of destruction erupted, engulfing the wreckage of an explosion-proof vehicle.
In the raging black flames, the wreckage quickly turned into flying ashes, and a figure let out a shrill scream, rushing out of the flames of destruction.
He only managed to run a few steps before turning into ashes, leaving a few black footprints on the ground.
The remaining security guards on both sides of the street watched this scene in horror, not daring to make any noise, fearing to attract Li Mu’s attention.
They recognized the person who had been burned to death as their superior, Babanak.
……
……
Li Mu held a piece of broken cloth, wiping the Blade of Annihilation. In his vision, the Blade of Annihilation underwent a strange change. It was surrounded by a halo, and a rune composed of countless characters was pulsing and flickering on the blade.
This was one of the effects of the Illusion Breaker Eyes, which could directly penetrate ordinary objects and see the radiating glow of psychic power.
In his sight, Shen Luoyan and Li Mei were surrounded by layers of light circles, each of which was equivalent to a holy relic. In particular, Shen Luoyan had dozens of layers. Ordinary awakened individuals could never have such a number of holy relics.
“What exactly is that thing in the sky?”
This question had been bothering him for a long time.
“It’s the Child of Plutonium,” Black crane floated beside Shen Luoyan, looking like a group of black fireflies.
The rebellious curio in Li Mu’s hand was now obedient and well-behaved.
As an Ore, she inherited many secrets and knew some knowledge unknown to the world.
“Before the Great Catastrophe, humans successfully exploited the ignorance of the Olden Day Rulers regarding nuclear weapons and managed to kill two of them at a heavy cost.”
They were too arrogant, thinking they could enslave the Earth as they had enslaved other worlds, only to suffer a great setback.
Half of the Olden Day Rulers’ bodies sank into the Source Ocean, while the other half floated in the real world.
Humans selected a group of the most powerful psychic awakened individuals to search the remaining memories of the Olden Day Rulers’ bodies and obtained a large amount of precious hidden knowledge. Among them, there were even rituals to promote from the first level to the Olden Day Rulers.
This gave humans a significant advantage in the battle against the Olden Day Rulers and their minions.
However, the tactical advantage ultimately couldn’t make up for the strategic disadvantage.
The human alliance gradually fell into a disadvantageous position, with some small countries’ rulers directly surrendering to the Olden Day Rulers, turning their territories into breeding grounds and military bases for their minions.
Even within the major countries, various cults emerged that worship the Olden Day Rulers. They not only created terror but also spread the existence of the Olden Day Rulers among the civilians.
These Olden Day Rulers were far away in the starry sky, millions of light-years away. Only if enough intelligent beings knew and recited their names could they traverse the vast starry sky along the Source Ocean and invade Earth.
Therefore, the human alliance had been trying its best to block information about the Olden Day Rulers and their minions from the beginning.
As the situation was about to collapse and no sign of victory was visible, someone proposed a crazy plan: to set up an instrument track, use the Olden Day Rulers’ corpses to create new Rulers, and use these Rulers to fight against the Olden Day Rulers.
After countless failures, they succeeded.
The Child of Plutonium was the second Ruler created. After the first Ruler was defeated, the desperate humans detonated nuclear warheads around the globe as the instrument track, allowing the Child of Plutonium to be born from the corpse.
Upon awakening, the Child of Plutonium possessed unprecedented great power, ascending into the outer atmosphere. The radiation that spread across the entire wasteland world was a manifestation of its great power, capable of causing devastating damage to the minions.
The Olden Day Rulers who invaded the wasteland world would be the first targets of the Child of Plutonium’s attack.
