I Attained Invincibility In The Real World - Chapter 562: 325: The End and Return to the Ground

Chapter 562: Chapter 325: The End and Return to the Ground

At the edge of the Far South Continent.

Black clouds envelop the sky, as if the heavens were on the brink of collapse.

The raging sea roars, its waves furiously tumbling over one another.

Moreover, there are flashes of lightning and fierce winds accompanied by torrential rains, filling the world with the clamor of nature.

The sight of near or far gigantic waves alone is enough to put shivers down one’s spine.

Ordinarily, the colossal ship, which looks like a steel monster, would offer respite.

At this moment, however, it could not provide any sense of safety to its passengers.

“Protect all the equipment!!”

“Those who can, save people first!!”

On the deck, a scientific researcher in a white coat directs the actions of the martial artists.

In the face of the sea’s assault,

The ship sways from side to side, seeming ready to be swamped at any moment.

Fortunately, the people participating in this mission, even if they are only in charge of scouting, are all competent martial artists.

Facing nature’s wrath, they may not be able to fight back, but they are by no means totally devoid of their abilities to act.

As the equipment is stored into the boat one by one and those who have fallen into the sea are rescued,

The scientist finally relaxes slightly.

This is the same man who was in communication with Li Wuji earlier.

He is also the one who saw the Far South Continent change with his own eyes.

A few minutes ago,

It was all still and calm around him.

As the research director, he was leading a group of scientific researchers in analyzing the data sent back by the detectors.

But a sudden, deafening explosion cut off their research.

The research director immediately tried to find the source of the noise.

And then,

He saw a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life.

Glaciers shattering.

Islands colliding.

The perennial snow that covered the surface of the Far South Continent, like a shedding dress, sliding off in an instant.

Along with these never changing scenes, in the face of the vibrations, crumbled and fell apart.

What followed,

Was this indescribable natural disaster.

Facing the torrential waves stretching across the sky and the lightning that could strike the ship at any moment,

The research director, not yet recovered from the shock, had already received a communication from Kyoto.

Immediately after,

He received a piece of news that was even more shocking than the current situation.

At the exact moment the shaking occurred,

Through satellite observations, it was discovered in Kyoto that the tectonic plate of the Far South Continent had moved several centimeters.

Do not underestimate these few centimeters.

Please note,

This is an entire continent we’re talking about.

Although the Far South Continent is not the largest among the seven lands,

It is still a whopping more than fourteen million square kilometers.

And such a colossal object of horrifying mass, moving just several centimeters, could possibly inflict an inextinguishable effect on the surrounding sea.

The ensuing chain of reactions could even potentially affect the climate of half the planet.

Upon hearing this,

The research director felt his heart come to a halt.

A question rapidly arose, filling his entire mind.

What on earth had President Li and his team done?

This was his instinctive thought. It was also the reason he automatically questioned Li Wuji when he received Li’s communication.

Because in his eyes,

This situation couldn’t possibly be caused by human effort.

It more likely seemed as if some unexpected event had been discovered in the sleeping land, resulting in a chain reaction.

Could it be that President Li and his team had detonated some kind of weapon in front of the Heavenly Person?

Or could it be, was this the Heavenly Person’s attack…

No, absolutely not!

When the second thought popped into the scientist’s mind, he instinctively rejected it.

After all, humans are merely humans.

According to the information they had, the Heavenly People were nothing more than evolutions from the large group of humans.

Perhaps they could cause a chain reaction by attacking the Earth’s crust, or perhaps they could find some other clever way around.

But even if you kill the research director, he refuses to believe anyone could simply rely on their own strength to cause the movement of an entire continental tectonic plate.

That is not something a human should possess.

It is nothing more than a forbidden area.

This is clearly… the domain of the gods.

——————

The Heavenly Person’s sealed land.

There, deeply buried under piles of stones, lava seeping through the gaps around it.

Li Wuji, holding a communicator, had a look of slight daze in his eyes.

The vibrations were still ongoing.

Only their amplitude was very slight, seemingly due to the collision of the ice sheet and islands on the Earth’s surface.

He had not yet recovered from the initial shock.

Compared to the scientists on the Far South Continent, he, who was in the sealed land, naturally understood the origin of the vibration.

Only he didn’t know yet whether it was because of Chen Sheng or because of the Heavenly Person.

But as a martial artist,

What he knew even better was,

If the movement of the tectonic plate of the land was caused by the previous shaking…

It certainly was not a chain reaction due to an attack, as the research director had thought.

The shock was only once.

If it really was a chain reaction,

Then beneath the ground, the trembling sensation would definitely not be so slight.

Being able to move the land’s tectonic plate with his own power,

Even if Li Wuji had a very high speculation on the strength of Chen Sheng and the Heavenly People,

This kind of event had far exceeded his imagination.

What he hoped for now was that the one causing this commotion was not the Heavenly Person, but Chen Sheng.

If Chen Sheng was strong, he would merely raise his thumbs up for him and praise him for being awesome.

But if it was the Heavenly Person…

Then humanity might just be doomed.

At this thought,

Li Wuji released his perception, trying to sense the distant fights.

Before,

That Heavenly Person named Red Mist, by some method unknown, not only modified the thoughts and memories of the three of them,

But even weakened their perception a lot.

This made him, buried beneath the rock layer beforehand, unable to gain any information about the outside world at all.

He clearly knew Rhein and Or were not far from him, yet he couldn’t perceive the two’s situations at all.
