Chapter 674: Chapter 517: Taking the Final Step

Seeing Ning Yan always looking up at the sky without responding to him, Su Yu couldn’t help but take a few steps forward and call her name again. Suddenly, a somewhat aged voice came from atop a round stone pillar, about twenty meters tall, not too far away, "Does she really deserve this? Let me test that..." The moment he heard the voice, Su Yu’s heart shuddered. He hadn’t sensed any presence atop the pillar, which was quite close to him.

As the somewhat aged voice sounded, a black figure leapt up and appeared atop the pillar, then launched in the air towards Ning Yan, who was standing motionless with her head raised and had already transformed into a humanoid creature.

With the old man’s leap, layers of white frost appeared on his body, quickly covering him with a transparent frost armor. Extending his right hand, whiteness stretched out and turned into an almost two-meter-long transparent ice spear. With a long cry, he held the ice spear and attacked, stabbing towards the humanoid creature that closely resembled Ning Yan.

Su Yu couldn’t figure out who these people were. More than that, the third old man who emerged was almost as powerful as Yano, an existence absolutely horrifying to the extreme. Even with his limited knowledge, he could faintly guess that these old men must have all evolved to the limit of the Black Iron Warriors.

As for this humanoid creature, not only did it bear a strong resemblance to Ning Yan in appearance, but Su Yu was utterly sure that it was Ning Yan. Because this monster had been attacked just now and slightly turned its body, he had already seen the "666" mark glowing faintly purple behind its neck.

Given that she was a "666" beast and also looked a lot like Ning Yan, Su Yu could confirm her identity.

The old man, armored with ice and armed with an ice spear, struck powerfully through the air as if he could shatter the Broken Void. Meanwhile, the humanoid creature that closely resembled Ning Yan seemed to be frozen as though staring at a cloud in the sky, oblivious to the attack on her.

With a huff, Su Yu took a step, immediately transformed into a humanoid Giant Lizard. His terrifying will power targeted the frost-armored old man first, followed by a punch towards the incoming ice spear from mid-air.

Just as the frost-armored old man launched his attack, he suddenly felt a severe headache as if he had been struck by a sledgehammer. He couldn’t help but groan, his body stalled in the air, and fell directly down while Su Yu’s Giant Lizard form had already rushed several steps forward and closed the distance of tens of meters. His right fist smacked into the ice spear.

The "Black Iron Blood" power within his body bubbled and burst with the punch, and in an instant, the frost-armored old man staggered backwards and his two-meter-long ice spear shattered into pieces.

"Huh?" The two old men in the distance let out a gasp of surprise in unison, their eyes simultaneously turning to Su Yu. Their eyes were rich in amazement, and nearly at the same time, they both exclaimed, "Another one?" their faces full of disbelief and shock.

The frost-armored old man whose ice spear shattered, also changed color, staring intently at Su Yu who had transformed into a humanoid Giant Lizard. His right hand slowly extended a new ice spear, but unlike before, he did not attack. The astonished look in his eyes was even more intense than that of the other two old men far away.

He knew well the strength and hardness level of the ice spear he had formed using his special power. An ice spear used as a weapon by a sorcerer of his level was definitely not some ordinary ice that could be shattered easily. Especially when transformed by a sorcerer of his level, its hardness far exceeded steel by at least tenfold. However, now it had been blown to pieces with one punch from Su Yu, which left the frost-armored old man shocked and horrified.

The frost-armored old man reformed an ice spear but didn’t attack again. Ning Yan at the center seemed completely unaware of everything around her. Slowly, her hands slightly stretched out, and a series of purple magical marks started glowing on her body. Her entire body began radiating strange energy fluctuations, and her feet slowly left the ground, as though she was floating in the air.

Su Yu was slightly taken aback and yelled, "Ning Yan..." He planned to say more, but Ning Yan had already ascended over ten meters high. From her posture, it seemed that she was about to fly away from this place.

This scene was quite shocking, even Lei Leian had widened her beautiful eyes, watching Ning Yan, who now resembled a humanoid beast, overcome the world’s gravity and fly up into the sky. Aside from creatures naturally equipped with wings, even Su Yu couldn’t lift himself into the air in that fashion.

Seeing Ning Yan about to fly away, Su Yu grew anxious. It wasn’t easy to spot Ning Yan again, how could he let her leave this way? With a shift of thought, a Giant Will immediately descended. Ning Yan, who was ascending, suddenly vibrated and started falling down again.

Ning Yan’s face showing a struggle as she tried to maintain her levitating form and continue to fly away. However, Su Yu had already leapt into the air. He stretched out an arm, grabbed one of Ning Yan’s legs, and yanked her down.

This time, the humanoid creature transformed by Ning Yan let out a terrifying roar. Clearly, she was angry.

On his body, the purple demonic patterns burst forth, a terrifying force surged forth with a swing of his right claw, instantly colliding with Su Yu’s arm.

Su Yu grunted, radiance rippled on his dark scales, the "Black Iron Blood" within his body surged like the world’s most intricate machine in operation, delivering an overwhelming power, instantly hard-colliding with the humanoid monster that Ning Yan had transformed into.

With a "clang," it was as if two metal iron arms had smashed together. Su Yu grunted and stepped backward, while a pained expression appeared on the angry face of Ning Yan.

This clash seemed to have resulted in an equal outcome.

Undescribable shock flashed in Su Yu’s eyes.

He obtained this power after countless unimaginable opportunities and risks. Yet, Ning Yan’s growth was not one bit inferior to his own. In that instantaneous clash before, he was not able to gain any upper hand.

Moreover, even he himself has yet to attain the ability to levitate which Ning Yan possessed.

Su Yu was taken aback, the humanoid monster covered in purple patterns appeared to be even more shocked. With a forceful thrust of her feet, she leaped upwards. Almost simultaneously, Su Yu roared and followed up, his hands turned over, gripping Ning Yan once again in an instant.

The humanoid monster that Ning Yan had transformed into let out a piercing roar. With a twist of her body and an explosion of purple patterns, the two bodies collided in mid-air with a "boom". Su Yu let out a fierce howl, the power of the "Black Iron Blood" in his body roared and his arms extended, flinging Ning Yan far off into the distance.

"Damn—" Su Yu was taken aback, just a moment ago, in the life-and-death struggle, he exerted too much force and ended up throwing Ning Yan hundreds of meters away. He instinctively cursed, fearing he might’ve injured Ning Yan. But before he could even finish cursing, Ning Yan, who had just been flung hundreds of meters away, had already risen into the air again.

Ning Yan blasted off several meters into the air. Her whole body’s magic patterns exploded, even her feet sprayed out thick purple light. In an instant, she shot into the sky like a rocket, disappearing into the thick dark clouds in the sky.

Su Yu landed, looking on dumbfoundedly. Although he had just thrown Ning Yan out, she seemed unharmed and instead took advantage of the situation to shoot into the sky, using her unique power to disappear into the dark clouds above.

"Ning Yan..." Su Yu looked dumbstruck for a while before he couldn’t help but call out again. In an instant, Ning Yan had shot up into the sky at a speed too fast for him to even use his will to try and stop, from hundreds of meters away. He could only watch helplessly as Ning Yan once again flew away from him.

At this moment, the other three elders were all looking up at the dark clouds in the sky, from where they could faintly hear the sound of thunder. Soon, Su Yu saw lightning strike down from the clouds. Above the entire dark cloud, thunder roared and the clouds rolled, looking horrifically terrifying. It was as if two unimaginably huge monsters were fighting to the death inside.

"That little girl... is about to step out of this world..." The wooden man carrying a stone coffin slowly walked over, looking at the dark clouds above, and said this lightly.

This sentence shook Su Yu to the core. Ning Yan... about to step out of this world? The terrible noise from the dark clouds above, could that be because Ning Yan was about to step out of this world?

Su Yu was shocked. But the elderly man in ice armour holding an ice spear, looking up at the dark clouds, rasped. "That’s not necessarily true. Relying on one’s own power to step out of this world is incredibly difficult..." He finally heaved a long sigh, his face full of helplessness.

Just then, a fearsome, heartbreaking long howl echoed from the dark clouds above, followed by deathly silence.

The three elders looking up from below had strange expressions, while a peculiar feeling surged in Su Yu’s mind. He thought of the place where his will was guiding him, above those dark clouds, and where Ning Yan had just shot off into. What... was up there in those clouds? Could it be that the secret to stepping out of this world was right up there in the clouds?

After a brief period of sudden silence, the old man holding the ice spear finally laughed, saying, "In this world, another person has stepped out..." Then, with a dejected face, he dropped his ice spear, sat on the ground and murmured, "Thirty years... I have been here for thirty years, but I still... can’t make that step... can’t make that step..." He began to sob uncontrollably, beating his chest and stomping his feet.
