The last ti he ca to this residential district, he didn't rember there being such a beautiful painting here.
Moreover, such a painting couldn't possibly be hidden from the world, as its allure was too great. Anyone who saw it would never forget it and would instinctively want to obtain it. So, Shen Ye didn't think he overlooked it, or that the painting had been swallowed by the fire at the ti.
Besides, it was untouched by the recent massive fire, which was even stranger.
"Strange...!"
He frowned slightly, intending to grab the painting.
But just then, he suddenly heard soft footsteps outside the ruins.
It's Yun You! She's here!
Seeing this, Shen Ye no longer cared about the painting, quickly concealing his presence, hiding quietly within the ruins, ready to continue battling Yun You.
The vast street once again returned to silence, with only the whoosh of the wind blowing and... the crackling of small flas rising continuously in the ruins.
...
As she strolled to the center of the ruins, Yun You could basically confirm that she had definitely not been here before, not even on this street.
Not having been here before ant she hadn't set anything up here.
But if that were the case, why would Shen Ye be drawn to this place?
Yun You couldn't figure it out, but at the mont, she didn't have the luxury of pondering these trivial matters.
She was certain that Shen Ye was definitely hiding in this pile of ruins right now, perhaps under so brick or tile at her feet.
Yet, that guy was well hidden, not a heartbeat could be heard, and even his breathing was muffled to the lowest volu, quieter than the wind brushing her ears.
This feeling of the enemy in the light while she was in the dark, Yun You detested it.
So the most important thing now was to find a way to force Shen Ye out.
Or, bury him directly within this rubble.
After a mont of thought, Yun You had a plan.
She took a deep breath, glanced at the ruins, then in the astonished eyes of onlookers, lifted a giant stone weighing about a thousand tons with her bare hands, and began climbing step by step up a hundred-ter-high tower nearby.
With every step, the steel plates and ground beneath her feet rumbled.
If she hadn't chosen this tower, the sturdiest "sentry tower" facility in the district, one of the military's forr three defense installations, with absurdly tough materials and foundation, the whole tower would have surely collapsed by now.
Once at the top, Yun You took a slight breath but soon began adjusting her position.
She stood at the edge of the tower top, hefting the giant stone, then, aiming at the ruins below where Shen Ye was hiding, without a hint of hesitation, she gathered all her strength and leaped mightily!
Dong—!
In an instant, the enormous force, coupled with the weight of the stone itself, crushed the sturdy tower directly.
This military facility, built 30 years ago, finally buckled under the burden and collapsed with a roar.
But the people's focus wasn't on the building, rather it was on Yun You...
She fell from a hundred ters high, with the power of her jump aiding her, reaching terminal velocity within a re second.
If it were her alone, the impact would at most create a small pit on the ground, but with the thousand-ton stone in her grasp, it was a different story entirely!
Moreover, Yun You's thods didn't end there.
"Super Heavy!"
She steeled herself, once again deploying the Super Heavy power of the Giant Claw!
The next mont, the originally several-ton Red Scale Giant Claw instantly bore a ten-thousand-ton mass, mingling with the mighty force and the giant stone!
And due to the sudden increase in weight, the initially solid giant stone buckled under the pressure, shattering in midair into over a dozen unequally sized boulders, crashing down...
This was precisely the outco Yun You desired to see.
With boulders weighing tens of tons at terminal velocity, they were already enough to cause devastating damage to a ruin, and the destructive power of a thousand-ton stone was excessive.
Thus, Yun You's task was to further amplify the attack's scope.
Ten boulders falling at once, enough to cover the entire ruins, plus her own impact, was more than enough to destroy the ruins!
This move, simple and brutal, yet effective!
Only, the force of impact works both ways; the massive impact as Yun You fell would create trendous recoil that her arms and internals would inevitably bear.
Of course, she clearly never cared about these minor details.
"What a crazy girl!"
From the spectator stands, Vitinya looked at Yun You, heedless of herself, unable to help but click his tongue.
Throughout the years, he had seen ruthless people, even brash ones, but never had he seen soone so reckless.
And yet, this girl was their junior sister...
When they first heard that Old Jin was taking on a student, they assud this junior sister would be the demure, gentle type, the kind that's cute and sweet.
That thought was dispelled upon eting her, only to realize, well then, this was completely contrary to their stereotype.
"What kind of insight does the old man have..."
He sighed helplessly.
But no sooner said than done, in the field, the stone and Yun You collided with the earth with a thunderous crash.
"Boom...!"
A series of trendous roars, accompanied by visible shockwaves and firelight, spread outwards.
The impact was so imnse that in the mont of collision, even Yun You herself was flung away.
Yet the exquisite sensation at her giant claw's fingertips of shredding steel and concrete, reassured Yun You her plan had succeeded.
Under imnse pressure, the debris pumled the ruins, crushing every brick and tile of the fragnted rubble, all the rebar and stone turning into searing blades, cutting wildly in all directions.
Even if Shen Ye had prepared a defensive stance in advance, this pervasive attack would tear his body apart, grinding his flesh and blood.
Of course, Yun You didn't expect this move to directly take Shen Ye's life; an Apprentice Death God wasn't that frail, but the Great Colosseum had the "no healing" arena effect, aning even a small wound would continuously sap a warrior's stamina and spirit, with bleeding harder to stem.
Once the body's blood loss reached a certain extent, even a Tier Four "Demigod" would find themselves in dire straits.
And by then, it would be Yun You's opportunity to secure victory!
"Stop hiding, I know you're not dead."
Looking at the desolate ruins, Yun You gently shook her head.
"This level of attack isn't enough to take your life."
No sooner had her words fallen, a rustling sound emanated from the bricks, as if sothing were moving within the ruins.
At first, it was quite inconspicuous, hardly louder than the wind, unless one listened intently.
But as ti went on, the noise grew louder, appearing from all directions.
At the sa ti...
The flickering flas between the bricks gradually turned searing and furious, eventually leaping up, transforming into a blaze that enveloped the entire ruins.
The peculiar sound from earlier was the flas in motion.
A large stone was pushed aside by rising flas, and beneath the rock, a man stood up.
Undoubtedly... this person was the repeatedly battered Shen Ye.
However, contrary to Yun You's expectations, although Shen Ye was covered in wounds, he showed no signs of fatigue.
His body bore nurous scars, blood incessantly seeping, even staining his clothes red.
Yet he stood with arms crossed, arrogantly towering in midair, completely indifferent to his injuries.
The reason was simple.
The flas, sohow, had entered his wounds, burned through his veins and ridians, and piece by piece, his torn body tissue began to nd.
The fire had beco an integral part of his body.
In this mont, he beca the fla.
And this was Shen Ye's ultimate skill.
lting Furnace Style.
"Using fire to connect nerves, construct muscle and bone, able to block all pain and massively enhance physical attributes and control over fire."
"This is the ultimate skill I have comprehended through over a decade of continual battles."
"Though I will die once the fire extinguishes, so what? Ever since becoming an Apprentice Death God, haven't we long since disregarded life and death?"
Shen Ye smirked, gesturing at Yun You.
"Co on, Wu Ming girl."
"Let's finish this final dance, and determine victory, and life and death."
