Crossing Peak, where the Heavenly Thunder Palace was located, was cut in half. Apart from the amazing power of fission weapons, what was more terrifying was the residual radiation energy, which would not be depleted for a long time. In the future, this place would become a land of death.
Fortunately, the physique of creatures in this era was greatly strengthened. As long as they were not exposed to radiation for a long time, their lives would not be in danger.
Luo Kai hid underground and heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the heavy footsteps of the monk leaving. The battle with the Sky Piercing Bird had consumed all of his spiritual power. Otherwise, he would have been able to fight against a high-level physique master even if he could not use his physical skills. But now, he could not.
He could already feel the terrifying radiation penetrating through the thick soil and gravel, directly penetrating into his body and violently destroying his cells. This feeling was all too familiar. It was exactly the same as the time when the evil energy filled his body.
The nature of the radiation energy was very similar to that of the evil energy. They were both violent and disorderly. The difference was that the evil energy affected one's thoughts and consciousness, while the radiation energy affected one's genes. One was an energy born from the spiritual plane, while the other was on the material plane.
Luo Kai frowned. He was not worried about the radiation energy penetrating into his body, but now he urgently needed to recover his combat strength. It was difficult for his spiritual power to recover with external help, but his body could. Compared to the more peaceful and gradual elemental energy, the transformation of the body by the evil energy could be completed almost overnight.
The nature of the radiation energy was very similar to that of the evil energy. To others, this kind of energy was violent and disorderly. Once too much of it was absorbed, it would cause genetic mutation. To him, however, it was not impossible to make use of it.
His cultivation path was to simulate the operation of the universe. Under the control of his strong spiritual will, all the energy that entered his body had to be guided by his own consciousness. He only needed to find a way to convert the disorderly radiation energy into energy of other natures.
Luo Kai did not stop the radiation energy from penetrating his body and allowed it to penetrate into his cells. At the same time, he transferred his spiritual consciousness into his body and observed the origin energy that built the universe from the microscopic level.
Radiation was the same as electromagnetism. They were both produced by the action of microscopic particles. Electromagnetism came from the fusion and conversion of microscopic particles, while radiation came from the annihilation effect caused by the collision of microscopic particles. In other words, it consumed itself and converted it into energy. One was orderly and controllable, while the other was disorderly and difficult to control. This was also the biggest reason why humans could control electricity but not radiation.
The cells in the deepest layer began to "die" on a large scale under the infiltration of radiation. To be precise, their activity was still there, but they had deviated from their original development trajectory. Blood red spots appeared on his skin, and some of his muscles even began to deform and grow ugly tumors.
Luo Kai did not hesitate to cut off the thing that grew on his body. He extended his consciousness to speed up the penetration of the external radiation. At the same time, he stimulated the elemental energy in his organs to neutralize and sort out the radiation.
Just as he expected, the elemental energy that represented order happened to be the nemesis of disordered energy. To be precise, the elemental energy was a kind of filter, just like how the Earth's atmosphere filtered cosmic radiation, sorting out disordered energy into order!
Unfortunately, he had only mastered three of the five elements that represented elemental energy. The filtration was not sufficient, and part of his body still suffered permanent damage.
With the infiltration of a large amount of radiation, his hair began to fall off, and his originally crystal clear skin became gray. He looked as if he had aged a few decades, but at the same time, his muscles and bones became thicker and tighter. The long-lost sense of strength returned once again.
After an unknown amount of time, Luo Kai opened his eyes, grabbed the white jade staff beside him, broke through the soil above his head, and jumped out.
The sky outside was already dark, and the bright stars dotted the sky. The endless starlight resonated with the vortex-shaped stars in his eyes. With a move of his mind, the residual radiation nearby gathered, and a flickering light condensed in the void.
He stared blankly for a moment, then immediately understood. That's right, light was the external manifestation of radiation. Compared to other energy with harsh conditions, light energy did not have a specific attribute. It could purify all things, and at the same time, it was also the source of all things.
The explosion of energy and the desperate sound of fighting in the distance entered his ears. Luo Kai collected his thoughts and rushed towards the source of the sound. With the return of his physical strength, he was like a big bird soaring in the sky. Every time he stepped on the ground, he would fly a distance of more than a hundred meters. Very soon, he arrived at the scene of the battle.
The group of Heavenly Thunder Palace Lamas were still fighting with the vicious beasts. There were not many vicious beasts left, only two complete vicious beasts and a dozen or so mature vicious beasts.
There were not many people on the human side. Other than the group of people from Heavenly Thunder Palace, there was also a group of Sky Combat Army that came as reinforcements. Tuoba Ye was also among them. After not seeing him for more than two years, this old fellow had already become an intermediate physique master. His aura was even sharper, and he had improved a lot.
Other than Tuoba Ye, there were two people who were the most eye-catching. One of them had a pair of wings and was shuttling back and forth in the sky. Every time he swooped down, there would be a loud whistling sound. His speed was indescribable.
The other person was even more dazzling. The golden light on his body was almost solid. His whole body was like a spiral light drill, and his sharp power was unstoppable.
Both sides were in a stalemate. Although the scale of the beast horde was much smaller, the ones that survived were all high level vicious beasts. Their fighting power was still very strong. Under the interference of the penguins' powerful spatial ability, the human side was unable to make any decisive progress. Spatial ability could distort space, so even the most powerful attack method would not be effective.
Luo Kai watched from afar for a while. His gaze fell on an injured Lama lying on the ground at the edge of the battlefield. If he wanted to find Thirteen and Ah 'Bao, he had to start with the disciples of Heavenly Thunder Palace.
There was more than one person who had the same idea as him. Just as Luo Kai quietly approached, a thin figure suddenly drilled out from the ground. He grabbed the Lama's throat and quickly flashed into the darkness of the night.
Luo Kai hurriedly increased the speed of his Qi and blood circulation and chased after him.
The figure was extremely fast. Moreover, he had a way of using dark energy. He was almost one with the night. As he chased after him, he completely lost track of his opponent's aura.
He stood on the spot and sighed. Previously, when the Sacred Blood Bug was still around, his opponent would never have been able to escape his lock. Unfortunately, the Sacred Blood Bug was probably burned by the Infinite Hellfire now.
After thinking for a while, he lay on the ground and listened to the vibrations coming from the ground. There were too many and too many vibrations coming from underground, so it was very difficult to distinguish.
Just as he was trying his best to distinguish the vibrations, a sense of danger rose in his heart. His reaction was also very fast. He swung his fist behind him.
From the snowy ground beside him, a figure silently swung his palm at him. When the fist and palm collided, there was a violent explosion of energy Qi.
At the same time, another figure appeared from the snowy ground to his right. His palms were like colorful butterflies and swallows, flying up and down and continuously striking his back.
Luo Kai let out a muffled groan and was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.
Following the depletion of his mental power, his powerful ability to foresee danger had also decreased by a lot. Moreover, his opponent's ability to hide his aura was too strong. Even if he was hiding right beside him, he would not have noticed. Fortunately, his body had just been modified by radiation and was very resilient. Otherwise, the series of sneak attacks from earlier would have directly shattered his weak body.
