Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang really didn’t know what the black substance at the bottom of the lake was. However, the feeling of being slashed by a thousand knives, Su Yang clearly felt it.

He kicked his legs fiercely, and the power within him burst forth completely in that instant, wanting to escape from beneath the ground.

But doing so was entirely useless. The vortex continued to sweep over him, sinking him further down. That black substance had already begun continuously devouring his body, swallowing his flesh bit by bit.

From the outside, it looked as if Su Yang was sinking into a swamp, continually descending.

However, only Su Yang himself knew the extent of the torment he was enduring.

No matter how hard he struggled, Su Yang couldn’t budge the vortex, and he had nearly given up in despair.

He originally came down to seek the person in the lake for help, but unexpectedly, he encountered such a crisis before even reaching them.

No wonder most of the fierce beasts don’t drill into this lake. Only now did Su Yang understand, the danger within the lake was even more terrifying than inside the valley.

The fierce beasts within the valley, though numerous and powerful, still offered a chance to fight back. Su Yang’s Devouring the World could at least intimidate those beasts.

But once inside the lake and entangled by the vortex, it was truly a death sentence.

Su Yang wanted to send Jiang Zi’er away, but his current power couldn’t contend with the vortex, nor could he send Jiang Zi’er away. Or rather, even if he could send Jiang Zi’er away, how long could she survive? The fierce beasts would never spare her.

Struggling, Su Yang was ultimately consumed by the black substance.

As he entered the black substance, Su Yang used his last bit of strength to have the Illusion of Devouring the World shield Jiang Zi’er.

He wasn’t sure if it would work, but it was the last thing he could do for Jiang Zi’er.

After being engulfed by the black substance, Su Yang only felt as if his entire body was being slashed by those steel blades. The intense pain nearly drove him to collapse.

He widened his eyes, yet couldn’t see anything around him, only hearing a series of shrill cries by his ears.

Su Yang clearly felt that his flesh was being scraped off by those steel blades, even scraping wildly on his bones, making a crunching sound. This pain was truly a lethal torment.

He turned his head to check on Jiang Zi’er, but surrounded by darkness, Su Yang couldn’t see anything, and Jiang Zi’er seemed to have vanished.

In such torment, five minutes passed before Su Yang gradually saw some light ahead. Meanwhile, the black substance also became a bit thinner.

Su Yang widened his eyes, and as the light intensified and the surrounding black substance grew thinner, he could finally see something vaguely.

What he saw was not any steel blades, which puzzled Su Yang greatly. What was going on?

He could still hear the sound of steel blades scraping against bones, so why couldn’t he see any blades?

Turning his head to look, Su Yang couldn’t find Jiang Zi’er, and even the Illusion of Devouring the World was nowhere to be found, as if it had disappeared entirely.

Su Yang’s heart jolted. Jiang Zi’er’s body wasn’t as robust as his, and it seemed that she couldn’t escape the black substance. Even the Illusion of Devouring the World couldn’t protect her!

Struggling to turn around, Su Yang wanted to rush back into the black substance to rescue Jiang Zi’er.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t go back. A powerful force surrounded him, dragging him downward, making it impossible to go back.

In the end, Su Yang was nearly despairingly dragged away by that force, moving further and further away from the black substance.

Su Yang’s heart felt painfully pierced, knowing he could never save Jiang Zi’er. This stubborn and determined girl, this time, she might have really lost her life here!

Now, Su Yang’s own situation was extremely perilous. The sensation of steel blades scraping against his bones still lingered, and Su Yang could see his current state. His flesh was completely gone, leaving him a skeleton.

Honestly, Su Yang was shocked by his own appearance. Wounded to this extent, even Land Immortals would have long since died. That Su Yang was still alive, even perceiving everything around him, was unimaginable.

Su Yang couldn’t comprehend his current situation, but he could clearly feel a power within his bones, forcefully supporting him. It was this power that kept him alive.

Unable to fight back and unable to die, Su Yang simply gave up resistance. He let that force drag him downward, letting the surrounding steel blades scrape his bones silently.

Who knows how much time passed, but the surrounding black substance was nearly invisible. And by then, Su Yang finally discovered that what was dragging him down wasn’t any special force, but a gigantic tornado. A black tornado was sweeping him downward!

At this time, even the sensation of steel blades scraping against his bones was lessened. Even the force dragging him down had significantly weakened.

Although Su Yang still couldn’t resist, he knew very clearly that if he continued descending, these forces would certainly grow weaker. By then, he might be able to escape this tornado.

Moreover, Su Yang noticeably saw that on his bones, new flesh was starting to regenerate. This power from his bones was remarkably regrowing his flesh.

The tornado swept across his body, slicing away the newly regenerated flesh like steel blades. However, the speed of flesh regrowth already surpassed that of the tornado’s slicing, so Su Yang’s flesh continued to increase.

Staring at the black tornado, an idea suddenly struck Su Yang’s mind.

The tornado was black, and when densely concentrated, it indeed appeared pitch black. Could it be that the black substance was formed from this tornado aggregating?

Furthermore, the steel blades that scraped away his flesh didn’t actually exist. It was evidently the tornado’s power sweeping across him. In other words, Su Yang fell into this tornado, leading to the current situation.

In fact, there was no black substance, nor steel blades. Everything was caused by this powerful tornado? The bottom of this lake was actually a mighty tornado?
