    Chapter 179

    Without saying a word, Su Hao slipped out of Temple Forest City under the cover of darkness.

    Spreading his wings, he soared into the night sky and disappeared.


    ---

    Huiyang City was one of the world's seven First-Class Great Cities, comparable to the capital of a nation.

    Only seven such cities existed on the map:

    Huiyang

    Xiangdi

    Shouzhong

    Gucun

    Jinshi

    Xiwei

    Anliang


    The distance between these seven cities was enormous.

    Even flying at his maximum speed, it would still take Su Hao nearly half a day to travel from Huiyang City to the nearest Great City, Xiangdi.

    Half a day sounded short...

    But in reality, if he flew without resting, Su Hao could travel over 20,000 kilometers in twenty-four hours.

    Given several days...

    He could probably circle the entire planet.


    ---

    Unfortunately...

    The map wasn't particularly accurate.

    After following its directions throughout the night, Su Hao still couldn't find Huiyang City by dawn.

    He could only continue circling through the sky while constantly expanding his search.

    Only after searching for quite some time did the enormous city finally appear beneath him.

    Hovering high above...

    Su Hao quietly observed it.


    ---

    Huiyang City stood at the confluence of three great rivers.

    The city stretched endlessly in every direction.

    It was nearly four times larger than Lingyuan City, with an unimaginably vast population.

    For such an underdeveloped world...

    The existence of such a gigantic city was astonishing.

    Of course...

    Its prosperity was closely related to geography.

    Whether in this world or any other...

    Transportation had always been the foundation of civilization.


    ---

    Just as Su Hao was quietly admiring the city...

    A powerful surge of Blood Energy suddenly erupted from below.

    It shot straight toward him.

    Su Hao's eyes narrowed.

    He immediately turned toward the approaching figure.

    Soon...

    A blurry silhouette rapidly closed the distance.

    Without hesitation...

    Su Hao gripped his long blade.

    Second-Tier Rune Arrays quietly activated across his Black Crystal Armor.

    He entered combat readiness instantly.


    ---

    The approaching individual possessed one of the four strongest Blood Energy signatures within Huiyang City.

    Its intensity was roughly one-third of Su Hao's own.

    There was no doubt.

    This was a Seventh-Tier Mutant.

    The strongest opponent Su Hao had encountered since entering this world.

    A true powerhouse standing at the world's pinnacle.


    ---

    "Interesting..."

    Su Hao became even more vigilant.

    Yet strangely...

    Every cell in his body seemed to grow excited.

    The exhilaration of facing a worthy opponent stirred his fighting spirit.

    He welcomed it.

    Instead of retreating...

    He pointed his blade toward the approaching figure...

    And accelerated.

    This battle...

    He intended to win.


    ---

    As the distance closed...

    Su Hao finally saw his opponent clearly.

    His entire body was covered in sleek black fur, smooth like a seal's skin.

    Only two round eyes remained exposed.

    The moment they drew close...

    The man's arms spread apart.

    Huge wing membranes unfolded.

    With a powerful flap...

    His speed increased dramatically.

    The sharp claws at his fingertips glimmered with chilling light.


    ---

    Su Hao immediately recognized him.

    All-Seeing.

    The Seventh-Tier evolution of the Nightwalker Folk.


    ---

    His eyes narrowed.

    The two streaked past each other in the sky.

    Clang!

    A brilliant shower of sparks erupted.


    ---

    The scene Su Hao had expected...

    Never happened.

    His blade effortlessly sliced off one of All-Seeing's claws.

    Yet at almost the same instant...

    All-Seeing twisted through an impossible angle in midair.

    Not only did he narrowly avoid being cut in half...

    He even managed to rake his claws across Su Hao's chest before escaping.

    Three shallow claw marks appeared across the Black Crystal Armor.


    ---

    "Hm?"

    Both men looked surprised.


    ---

    Su Hao was astonished by his opponent's aerial agility.

    It far exceeded his own.

    More importantly...

    His Second-Tier Barrier had been torn apart almost instantly.

    Fortunately...

    Hardening and Deflection had absorbed the remaining force.

    Otherwise...

    Those claws might truly have injured him.


    ---

    Meanwhile...

    All-Seeing was equally shocked.

    His sharpest claws had only left three shallow scratches.

    Even worse...

    His claw had been severed with a single strike.


    ---

    His hoarse voice echoed through the sky.

    "This sky..."

    "...belongs to me."

    "I do not permit others to trespass."

    "Leave now..."

    "And I'll spare your life."


    ---

    Su Hao smiled.

    "It used to belong to you."

    "But from the moment I arrived..."

    "It became mine."


    ---

    All-Seeing gave a cold snort.

    His body instantly accelerated.

    As he approached Su Hao...

    His form suddenly blurred.

    His entire body became fluid-like, leaving behind a flowing afterimage.

    Almost instantly...

    He appeared behind Su Hao.

    His claws slashed toward Su Hao's neck.


    ---

    These claws...

    Were perhaps the sharpest weapons in the world.

    Their tips were so incredibly fine that they seemed capable of slipping between the gaps of matter itself.

    Rather than cutting through objects...

    They disrupted the molecular bonds holding them together.

    No armor could truly stop them.


    ---

    All-Seeing was confident.

    This strike...

    Would at least tear away a piece of flesh from beneath the Black Crystal Armor.


    ---

    But Su Hao had prepared long beforehand.

    Second-Tier Lightning.

    Crack!

    A bolt of lightning descended instantly.

    All-Seeing's body stiffened.

    His attack froze.


    ---

    Without turning around...

    Su Hao activated another ability.

    Black Crystal Spikes!

    Countless razor-sharp crystal spikes erupted from his back.

    Puff! Puff! Puff!

    All-Seeing failed to evade in time.

    His entire body was skewered.

    Immediately afterward...

    Su Hao spun around.

    His long blade swept horizontally.


    ---

    Yet...

    Just before the blade reached him...

    All-Seeing barely regained control of his body.

    His figure twisted gracefully backward.

    He escaped once again.

    The Black Crystal spikes embedded in his body slid harmlessly along his thick black fur before falling away.

    Not a single wound remained.


    ---

    Su Hao raised an eyebrow.

    "So..."

    "Physical attacks are ineffective again."

    He wasn't particularly surprised.

    Every Mutant lineage possessed strange abilities.

    Looking at All-Seeing's long black fur...

    Su Hao became increasingly curious.

    "What happens..."

    "...if I set it on fire?"


    ---

    At that moment...

    All-Seeing's heart was filled with confusion.

    What exactly had that lightning been?

    No Mutant lineage was capable of controlling lightning.

    Moreover...

    The man before him could fly.

    Among all known lineages...

    Only the Nightwalker Folk, Mimic Folk, Lightfoot Folk, and certain branches of the Speed Folk possessed aerial abilities.

    Even then...

    Most could only glide or briefly hover.


    ---

    Yet this opponent...

    Clearly belonged to the Shell Folk lineage.

    Since when...

    Could Shell Folk fly?

    And command lightning?

    His understanding of the world was beginning to collapse.


    ---

    At the same time...

    He reached another conclusion.

    He couldn't defeat this opponent.

    Every attempt to approach ended the same way.

    Lightning disrupted his movements...

    Leaving him completely vulnerable.

    Continuing this fight served no purpose.


    ---

    Meanwhile...

    Su Hao accelerated once more.

    He pursued relentlessly.

    He had finally encountered a genuine Seventh-Tier Mutant.

    Naturally...

    He wanted to thoroughly test the limits of Seventh-Tier abilities.


    ---

    All-Seeing showed no fear.

    His body gracefully circled through the sky.

    Time and again...

    He avoided Su Hao's pursuit with unbelievable agility.


    ---

    As Su Hao closed the distance yet again...

    All-Seeing's round eyes narrowed.

    He raised both claws.

    "Void Claws!"

    In an instant...

    Countless razor-sharp claw shadows filled the surrounding sky.

    Every single one...

    Locked onto Su Hao.
