Almost at the same time the girl broke the egg and came out, the human-shaped stone in the base slowly melted like an ice cube. However, what melted out was not water, but scarlet blood.
When the two experimenters in the warehouse saw this, they were scared out of their wits. They wanted to run out of the warehouse, but just as they opened their mouths, they froze. Their eyes turned red, and a murderous aura began to emanate from their bodies.
The stone melted, and the red blood that flowed out was evaporated by some power. It rose from the stone and covered a large area.
All of the Spring Rain members and workers were affected by that invisible power. One by one, they leveled up. It was like they had all eaten a holy pill. They leveled up, and the genes of their bodies were strengthened.
Even the King class elites' bodies changed. They became half-deifieds. The half-deifieds fell back to Duke class.
Only the creatures that had been affected by the stone's power did not change. Aside from that, there was one other person who was not affected: Ning Yue.
The little green sword on his body moaned. It flew out and landed in Ning Yue's hand. It glowed with a green light, shielding Ning Yue's body.
In Han Sen's room, Bao'er was playing cards with Falling Leaf. Suddenly, her face changed. She grabbed the air, and a small gourd appeared in her hand. The small gourd glowed with a strange light. It protected Bao'er, Falling Leaf, and the little red bird.
"What are you doing?"
Falling Leaf was confused. She didn't know what Bao'er was doing. She only saw the small gourd glowing. Aside from that, she couldn't sense anything else. It was like a gourd that glowed in the night.
"Nothing. Let's keep playing cards," Bao'er said with a wink.
They continued to play cards.
In the warehouse, the outer layer of the stone had completely melted, revealing a white-clothed, white-haired man.
The man sat there with his eyes closed.
His face was very pale, and there was an ancient smell on his body.
It was as if he had been sitting there for countless years, watching the sun, moon, and stars fall.
The river of time flowed.
Nothing in the mortal world could leave a mark on his body, only a speck of dust falling on him.
With a sigh, the man slowly opened his eyes. He seemed to be muttering to himself, "For thousands of years, I only wish to be drunk with you. In a world where you are no longer in, is there any meaning to exist?"
The white-haired man stood up and walked out of the warehouse.
All the infected creatures in the base were fighting each other. The creatures that had been infected by the power had their levels increased or decreased. Their eyes were covered with a layer of red, and they were killing everyone they saw as if they had gone mad.
All kinds of powers were wreaking havoc in the base. If the base hadn't been built from the planet's black stone, it would have been reduced to rubble..
The white-haired man walked through the chaotic base, but no crazy creatures attacked him. No power fell on him, either. It was like he was cut off from the world.
The man walked out of the base and looked up at the sky. His eyes were still grey.
The buildings behind him kept collapsing in the chaos. All kinds of forces collided wantonly, but the man seemed to be uninterested in everything. He muttered to himself, "A world without you is really too boring."
Suddenly, the white-haired man turned his head and looked into the base. His gaze landed on the room where Bao Er and the others were. His lifeless eyes revealed a look of surprise.
Pang!
Fallen Leaf and Bao'er were still playing cards when they heard a loud noise. The whole room started to collapse like blooming petals, but not a single stone fell to hurt them.
The scene outside made Fallen Leaf's eyes open wide. The whole base was in ruins. Both the members of Spring Rain and the workers were crazily killing each other. Bodies and blood were everywhere.
"Have you all gone mad?"
Fallen Leaf shouted, but it didn't affect the crazy creatures in the slightest. The slaughter was still ongoing.
In the midst of all that killing, a white-haired man walked in front of the collapsed room. He looked like someone who had been cut off from the rest of the world.
Fallen Leaf was shocked. She flipped her hand, and a dagger appeared. She stared at the white-haired man and said, "Stop! Don't come any closer. If you do, I'll kill you."
The white-haired man didn't seem to hear her. He kept walking into the room. His eyes were fixed on Bao'er, who was still sitting on the sofa.
She warned him three times, but the white-haired man didn't seem to hear her. Although Fallen Leaf didn't know what was going on, she obeyed Miss Mirror's orders. She had to protect Bao'er.
The dagger silently stabbed toward the white-haired man. Fallen Leaf's entire body seemed to be one with the universe. He saw her stab out with the dagger, but she and the dagger suddenly disappeared. All that was left between the sky and the earth was a killing intent that was as light as a fallen leaf.
The murderous aura flashed across the white-haired man's neck. Fallen Leaf's body returned to its original position, as if nothing had happened.
But Fallen Leaf's pupils shrank. She was very confident in her assassination skills. Even a deified elite would have to focus to deal with her full power. But the white-haired man didn't do anything. He kept walking toward Bao'er, as if nothing had happened.
"How is that possible?" Fallen Leaf stared at the white-haired man in disbelief. She felt cold sweat break out all over her body.
She couldn't tell how the white-haired man had broken her strongest attack. Although the white-haired man didn't seem to have any power, Fallen Leaf was still terrified.
The white-haired man didn't even look at Fallen Leaf. His eyes were fixed on Bao'er.
Bao'er was clutching the little gourd. Her face looked serious. She looked at the white-haired man as if he was an enemy.
Boom!
The little red bird on Bao'er's shoulder seemed to feel some sort of pressure or danger. It flapped its wings and turned into a scary fire phoenix to protect Bao'er. It screeched at the white-haired man, but it only screeched. It didn't dare attack the white-haired man. It seemed to be afraid of him.
"Interesting. Is this a creature that combines the genes of a phoenix and a roc?
It can do this? Interesting. "The white-haired man's eyes finally moved away from Bao'er. He looked at the little red bird with interest.
Fallen Leaf was frozen. She had always thought the little red bird on Bao'er's shoulder was a useless pet. But now, its scary presence told her that it was a deified xenogeneic.
In the next second, something even more shocking happened. The white-haired man reached out his hand, and the fire phoenix was caught by him without any resistance. Its fire was extinguished in an instant, and it turned back into a little red bird. No matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't fly in his hand.
