Calamity of Tomorrow

Boom!

Thousands of Heavenly Demons erupted all at once, surging toward Zhou Bai like a tide.

Zhou Bai smiled faintly, looked at Qin Tian and the others, and said, "You go ahead, I’ll hold them off."

After speaking, his body shot out like a black lightning, slicing through the air and creating waves that knocked down swathes of trees as if a supersonic monster had skimmed over the forest.

As Zhou Bai left, thousands of Heavenly Demons followed closely behind, running and flying, roaring as they chased after him, their bodies simultaneously transforming, a great mass of hair emerging.

Seeing the Heavenly Demons recede like a tide, Qin Tian and the others first looked dumbfounded; then Song Zhen was the first to react, "Daniel Wu!"

She shouted a few times in the direction Zhou Bai had fled and turned to Qin Tian, "All the Heavenly Demons are after him! We need to figure out a way to save him!"

Qin Tian pondered for a moment and said, "We can’t save him from thousands of Heavenly Demons, you should understand what he meant; he sacrificed himself to save us..."

Song Zhen grabbed his neck angrily, "You want to give up on him?"

Qin Tian replied calmly, "Be rational; we only have two choices: either he dies alone or we go save him and we all die together. If there were even a glimmer of hope, I would save him, but clearly, we don’t even have that."

"Besides, Lin Changqing and the others who returned yesterday also encountered the assault of hundreds of Heavenly Demons; we encountered even more today. Clearly, the Heavenly Demons are undergoing a massive military maneuver in Sector 2; we must stay alive, deliver the intelligence back, and prevent more sacrifices."

Song Zhen’s hand slowly loosened, and although she was extremely reluctant, she knew Qin Tian was right.

At that moment, the call of the White Tiger came, "It’s Liu Ruonan! She’s still alive!"

Everyone rushed over and saw Liu Ruonan lying on the ground, her legs completely gone as blood flowed out like a fountain, quickly soaking her lower body.

Liu Ruonan looked at them and said, "I’m done for, kill me."

Qin Tian’s brows furrowed deeply as he looked at Miao Xian beside him, "Miao Xian, treat her. White Tiger, you stay here; once Miao Xian has treated her, bring them to catch up."

"The rest of us must go back immediately to transmit the intelligence."

A warrior asked, "Has anyone seen Qian Wangsun?"

Qin Tian’s expression changed, and his Primordial Spirit swept out, but he couldn’t find any trace of Qian Wangsun; he clenched his teeth and muttered, "That kid..."

...

Meanwhile, Zhou Bai was plowing through with the Heavenly Demons in tow, wreaking havoc like a mudslide, destroying the forest in his path.

"Stop right there!"

"Collect my hair!"

"You wanted hair, right? I’m giving it all to you!"

The Heavenly Demons roared, their bodies swelling and transforming, various firearms unfolding from their forms, firing broad volleys of lasers, kinetic ammunition, and radiation waves toward Zhou Bai.

In an instant, the mountainous area lit up with fire and explosions, scorching everything in its path.

Zhou Bai calculated the distance and thought to himself, "That should be about right. It’s time to test the effect of the Catastrophe Domain on the Heavenly Demons."

With that thought, Zhou Bai looked at his own panel.

Progression Degree: 30.0%

Primordial Spirit Value: 4083

God Map: Nine Calamities of Heaven and Man

Laziness: 820,000

During these days in Beihai City, aside from harvesting fortunes and enhancing his Primordial Spirit power, Zhou Bai had continuously exchanged a massive amount of materials and points, obtaining over 820,000 laziness points.

Because of the Dharma Saint Relics, Zhou Bai hadn’t used these laziness points to enhance his Primordial Spirit. Instead, he was saving them to activate the Catastrophe Domain.

"820,000 laziness points, if I open the Catastrophe Domain without selling anything, 1,000 points per second, that would be enough for 820 seconds."

The next moment, as the Catastrophe Domain was activated, under the bodies of hundreds of Heavenly Demons within 150 meters around Zhou Bai, massive surges of Guihai Black Evil shot skyward.

This was the first time Zhou Bai had initiated the Guihai Black Evil in such a densely packed enemy situation. The dark mud appeared like it was covering the sky, directly turning the ground within a 150-meter radius black, and it continued to generate more.

Since within 150 meters of Zhou Bai were densely packed Heavenly Demons, when he activated the Catastrophe Domain, the Guihai Black Evil continuously emerged within this 150-meter range.

From a distance, it seemed as if the ground suddenly broke open, creating a pitch-black hole 300 meters in diameter, with black mud gushing continuously from it, spreading in all directions.

Countless Heavenly Demons were instantly engulfed by the rolling black mud; cannonballs blasted through the waves of black mud, but soon, even more black mud surged forth.

In Zhou Bai’s view, countless pale streams of air, like a convergence of stars, penetrated the sky of black mud, continuously surging towards his position.

"It worked! A battlefield really is the best match for the Catastrophe Domain; this is where it can unleash its strongest power."

However, each strand of fortune seemed much weaker than those of the Heavenly Demon infiltrators in Beihai City—obviously, the efficiency of the Guihai Black Evil combined with the Primordial Spirit in harvesting fortunes from Heavenly Demons was much less, probably less than one-tenth.

"Every strand is much weaker, showing it’s less effective against demons, but there are so many of them."

Amidst the rising black waves under his feet, and seeing the fortune that kept being absorbed into his sea of consciousness, surrounding the Catastrophe Primordial Spirit, Zhou Bai burst into wild laughter.

Dozens of Heavenly Demons, over ten meters tall, rushed out of the black mud waves, and various weapons, huge claws, and tentacles all tore towards Zhou Bai’s body.

Facing these massive creatures’ attacks, Zhou Bai struck with a palm from afar; furious black mud shot upwards, directly transforming into a gigantic palm more than fifty meters long, fiercely slapping towards the Heavenly Demons.

It was like a fifty-meter-high black tsunami smashing down head-on, and the Heavenly Demons that had just rushed out of the black mud were struck by lightning, only to be slapped down again.

However, the originally strongest offensive aspect of the Guihai Black Evil, the dissolving of Primordial Spirit power, was completely ineffective against the Heavenly Demons, thus its attack power was significantly weakened when facing them.

With a slap of the gigantic palm, dozens of Heavenly Demons were smashed into the black mud, but more Heavenly Demons rushed over from all directions. Zhou Bai raised his hands, and suddenly, black mud surged upwards, enveloping Zhou Bai like a black sun 150 meters in diameter, continuously spinning.

As it spun, streams of black mud shot out like waterfalls, sweeping away all the surrounding Heavenly Demons and their attacks.

But shortly after, Zhou Bai quickly discovered that within the Catastrophe Domain, no new Guihai Black Evil was being produced. He was slightly startled but then realized, "Is there a limit to the production of Guihai Black Evil? Perhaps only after my cultivation level and my degree of enlightenment improve further can the quantity of Guihai Black Evil be increased. That makes sense, otherwise, if it kept producing indefinitely, it could one day fill even the universe."

As the Guihai Black Evil ceased to produce, Zhou Bai also felt a slight friction in the operation of the Catastrophe Primordial Spirit. The fortune enveloping the Catastrophe Primordial Spirit felt like numerous vines, wrapping around the Primordial Spirit while also burdening it heavily.

"Both the Guihai Black Evil and the absorption of fortune have their limits."

Although, Zhou Bai had anticipated this; after all, no cultivation method could truly be infinite, but at this moment, he couldn’t help but sigh. Then, a cold light flashed continuously in his eyes.

"Next, it’s time to annihilate these Heavenly Demons..."

Accompanied by a slight tremor in the sword species within Zhou Bai’s sea of consciousness, the air twisted, generating clear ripples.

A twenty-meter-tall Heavenly Demon, under the distance twisting of the Tianhe Star Explosion sword, shattered inch by inch, disintegrating into a pile of debris.
