Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Watching Li Changgong charging towards him like lightning, Zhang Yi recalled the intelligence he had gathered about him.

Li Changgong, like Zhang Yi, was an Epsilon-level superhuman with spatial-type abilities.

Absolute Defense versus I Am Heaven’s Will—it all came down to who was superior.

Li Changgong was rapidly closing in, while Zhang Yi retreated at a measured pace.

For every step Li Changgong advanced, Zhang Yi took one back, but there was always a brief pause in his movements during the intervals between his shots.

This gave Li Changgong the opportunity to close the distance.

”Sniper rifles are useless against him. Abandon the rifle.”

Without hesitation, Zhang Yi stowed away Thunderbolt and drew both White Owls with both hands.

At medium to short range, the power White Owl could unleash now was no less than Thunderbolt’s, and it was far more agile.

The thick barrels aimed at Li Changgong’s direction, spewing out one black Void bullet after another.

The latest material forged from Yi Metal allowed Zhang Yi to exert his power to the maximum. Combined with the power of the Void, its destructive force was astonishing.

In an instant, a sky full of black Void bullets enveloped the space before Li Changgong.

Li Changgong narrowed his eyes, having already sensed Zhang Yi’s ability to predict his movement trajectory.

But this was no challenge for him.

The speed of his blade draw surpassed the speed of Zhang Yi’s bullets!

The sky full of Void bullet rain completely sealed off his forward path.

With a sharp ”Clang!”, the blade in Li Changgong’s left hand was finally drawn.

”All Within My Thought—Be Cleaved!”

The two blades crossed, swiftly slicing through the air. Dozens of dazzling blade rays converged into a massive net.

The moment the black Void bullet rain met that enormous web of blade energy, both the Yi Metal bullets and the Void energy were cleanly sliced apart!

There was no force capable of resistance. Before Li Changgong’s twin blades, it seemed nothing could hinder him in the slightest!

Zhang Yi deliberately let a look of surprise flash across his face.

”My power... was broken through so easily by you?”

Across the vast distance, Li Changgong seemed to have sensed Zhang Yi’s astonished expression, and the smile on his face grew more pronounced.

”Before my twin blades, nothing is indestructible, only speed is unbreakable!”

Yet, in his heart, Zhang Yi was gauging the opponent before him.

All Within My Thought—Be Cleaved, a spatial-type cutting ability. One of its signature traits was that wherever the twin blades pointed, they could cleave through all things in the world!

A feather, a fortress, a superhuman.

Wherever the blade passed, it wasn’t Li Changgong doing the cleaving; rather, everything blocking the path of his blade would automatically disintegrate at the molecular level to evade his edge.

Unhurried, Zhang Yi continued retreating while the White Owls in his hands, like submachine guns in the hands of Contra, incessantly spewed forth a sky full of bullet rain.

After reaching the Epsilon level, the superhuman energy within his body had reached a terrifying magnitude. This kind of bombardment-style assault was no issue for him at all.

In Li Changgong’s eyes, however, Zhang Yi’s attacks were utterly meaningless, merely a waste of time.

”Nothing can hinder me.”

”Wherever my blade points, all things shall shatter!”

Directly ahead of the twin blades, Li Changgong’s killing intent did not waver. A massive white blade ray shot through the air—it was powerful spatial force. Wherever it passed, all Void energy was cleanly split in two!

The distance between the two rapidly closed.

Zhang Yi retreated again and again. With a wave of his right hand, numerous Dimensional Gates flew towards Li Changgong, completely covering the space around him.

One black Void tentacle after another extended from the Dimensional Gates, like a terrifying multi-legged octopus monster, containing extremely terrifying destructive force, lashing out at Li Changgong!

Li Changgong neither dodged nor evaded, simply meeting them with his twin blades.

”I told you, attacks of this level are insignificant to me!”

Wherever the blades pointed, even Zhang Yi’s most prideful Void Power could not withstand the rules of I Am Heaven’s Will.

The force was not neutralized, not annihilated, merely cleaved apart by the blades, unable to harm Li Changgong’s true form.

By now, the distance between the two had closed to within three kilometers.

Seeing this, everyone broke into a cold sweat for Zhang Yi.

In this battle, everyone believed Zhang Yi could not win.

The vast gap in strength, as well as in individual combat proficiency—Zhang Yi was far too outmatched by Li Changgong, this born military genius!

How could the efforts of one person overcome the accumulation of five generations?

Even Qin Qigong couldn’t help but remark, ”If Gouchen closes the distance, Chaos will completely lose the ability to resist. Gouchen has prepared thoroughly for this battle; Chaos has no possible chance of victory.”

He said to Guan Longyue, far away in Shengjing, ”Prepare to intervene! Don’t let anyone die.”

Guan Longyue tilted her head, watching the two in the arena.

In her hands, she held two exquisitely carved dolls.

One was Zhang Yi’s, the other was Li Changgong’s.

”I don’t think it will end that quickly.”

She said calmly.

Qin Qigong was somewhat surprised. ”What do you see?”

A faint, interesting smile appeared on Guan Longyue’s cold face.

”The expression on his face isn’t one someone about to lose would have.”

Hearing this, Qin Qigong located Zhang Yi’s face through the hundreds of satellite feeds before him.

Amidst the feigned surprise, his movements remained frighteningly steady, and there was no trace of panic in his eyes.

”Chaos... what other trump card does he have? What could allow him to overcome the massive 3000-point superhuman ability index gap and defeat Gouchen?”

Qin Qigong couldn’t help but feel puzzled as well.

In reality, only half a minute had passed in the battlefield.

All of Zhang Yi’s attacks had been broken by Li Changgong in the simplest manner.

Nothing remained unshattered before his twin blades.

Be it Void Power or the strongest bullets forged from Yi Metal.

Before an absolute ability, they all turned to nothingness.

Yet, Zhang Yi showed not the slightest panic.

He himself was not a superhuman renowned for offensive prowess.

Defense, and fighting wars of attrition, were his strengths.

”An interesting ability. However, while I may temporarily lack an effective means of attack, you cannot harm me in the slightest either!”

The distance between them was three kilometers.

A faint, elusive smile played on Zhang Yi’s face. The world seen through his left eye was no longer normal light and shadow, but Li Changgong’s movement trajectory for the next two seconds.

”Manifold Phenomena!”

One enormous Dimensional Gate after another materialized between Zhang Yi and Li Changgong, each as massive and majestic as the gates of Shengjing City.

Completely and utterly blocking the path between Li Changgong and Zhang Yi.

”I bet your blades cannot cleave through my Dimensional Gates!”

Zhang Yi said calmly.

Li Changgong’s All Within My Thought—Be Cleaved could cleave through all material substances in the present world, but Dimensional Gates were merely passages between two worlds, not material existences.

How can one cleave something that is inherently nothingness?

Just as Zhang Yi thought Li Changgong would need to expend tremendous effort to deal with the Gates...

His figure suddenly vanished from where he stood.
