Chapter 400: Chapter 32: Jiang Ming’s Shock - Is His Volcano Skill Truly Terrifying? (5K)_3

Jiang Ming said, "Don’t worry, within a thirty-mile radius, there’s nothing on the ground below, not even a feather."

"That’s good."

Zhao Xing jumped down.

Chen Shijie said, "Commander Jiang, activate the defense barrier of the Sea Covering Warship and raise it to fifteen hundred meters."

"Set the array’s defense level to the highest."

Jiang Ming couldn’t help but interject, "Is that necessary? Our Sea Covering Warship is a Fifth Order Supreme; setting it to the second level of defense should be enough."

Chen Shijie nodded, "It’s necessary."

Seeing this, Jiang Ming had no choice but to give the order.

...

The fourth night.

The tranquil night was suddenly shattered by an explosion.

"Boom!"

It was as if a giant stone had crashed to the ground, resulting in a muffled collision.

"Boom boom boom boom~!"

Continuous explosions echoed, the muffled sound making even the soldiers of Zhenhai Army thirty miles away feel uneasy, as if the land was brewing something.

Though not as intense as thunder, it made people feel an oppressive heaviness, as if a cataclysm was about to occur.

"What’s happening? Is it thundering?" Ouyang Song ran out of the tent, looking at the horizon.

"It’s not thunder." He Yu also ran out. Both were Military Ministers of Agriculture and immediately began checking the disturbance. "It’s coming from the volcano."

"No way, we’ve retreated thirty miles and can still hear it?"

He Yu suddenly lay down, pressing his ear to the ground.

"An earthquake."

Before he finished speaking, the ground started to shake lightly.

"Quick, notify the commander, continue retreating the whole camp!" He Yu shouted.

"Huh? Is that necessary?" Ouyang Song asked.

"Did you forget the training incident at Ten Suns Cave Heaven?" He Yu reminded, "Back then, Zhao Xing had just entered the Ninth Grade and created a ten-mile isolation zone on the Earth Fire Plain."

"Now he’s already a Seventh Rank!"

"Brother, you must remember! Go notify them quickly!"

Recalling the past event, Ouyang Song shivered; he had almost died of thirst on the Earth Fire Plain.

If Xuanjia Army’s Wei Chen hadn’t given him a flask of water, he might not have made it to Yang City.

"I’ll go now!"

.....

Such muffled sounds continued for an hour.

They suddenly stopped, as if everything had calmed down.

However, in the next moment—

"Bang!"

The night instantly turned to day.

A mushroom cloud rose from the volcano crater!

Within the scorching, searing smoke,

a fiery red beam shot straight into the sky like a fire dragon ascending!

The world changed dramatically!

"Swish!"

Zhao Xing swiftly rose, flying out of the black smoke.

He leapt onto the deck of the Sea-covering Ship.

Seeing this, Chen Shijie immediately shouted, "Run!!"

Jiang Ming felt his scalp tingle because as he stood on the deck, looking down, the fiery red beam pierced through the thousand-meter Gang Wind Layer in an instant.

It blasted a massive hole through the Gang Wind Layer and, without losing momentum, reached the fifteen-hundred-meter altitude where the warship hovered.

"Full left rudder, ascend, southeast... crap!"

Before Jiang Ming finished his instructions, he felt a tremendous force hit the deck.

The force was so terrifying that even as a Sixth Grade Martial Artist, he couldn’t stay upright and was thrown into the air.

The others were also tossed around, crashing against the barrier or the walls of the inner ship.

Boom!

The Fifth Order Supreme Warship was enormous, but even so, the erupting Earth Fire beam grazed it, spinning it and flinging it away!

In the air, it spun like a top and in the blink of an eye was sent three thousand meters away.

Jiang Ming’s head was dizzy from the collision, the world spinning around him. The warship didn’t stabilize until a minute later.

"Oh my god!" Jiang Ming was dumbfounded. "Is this the Volcano Skill?"

Jiang Ming prided himself in being knowledgeable, having survived many scenarios to reach Sixth Grade, but this was beyond his experience.

The volcano crater had been over three hundred meters in diameter, now it exceeded a thousand meters!

Lava emitted intense heat, and black smoke filled the air, the volcano’s top completely reddened, reflecting a glaring red light that was hard to look at directly.

Red volcanic ash swirled like pitch-black clouds in a frenzy.

Scorching temperatures erupted from the depths of the earth, roaring like a beast, intimidating all living beings to tremble before such power.

The sky was shrouded in clouds, obscuring the view of the Gang Wind Layer.

The ground around the volcano trembled continuously as if in endless agony.

The volcanic eruptions became more violent, lava flowing over the surrounding wasteland, creating a sea of magma.

This moment of rage and frenzy left Jiang Ming profoundly shocked.

He now understood why Chen Shijie and Zhao Xing had repeatedly insisted on retreating far away.

The might of nature, this was the true might of nature!

If they hadn’t maxed out the warship’s defenses in advance, it might have been burnt through!

If that had happened, let alone the others, there was no guarantee Jiang Ming himself would have survived.

A Sixth Grade Heavenly Gang Realm warrior could survive at fifteen hundred meters in the Gang Wind Layer.

But now even the three-thousand-meter Gang Wind Layer above the crater had been dispersed!

"Is anyone injured?!"

"Where’s the military doctor?! Where’s the military doctor!"

Chen Shijie clung to a mast, shouting as soon as the warship stabilized.

Jiang Ming snapped out of it, immediately checking the warship and casualties.

Half an hour later, Jiang Ming plopped to the ground, covered in cold sweat.

Fortunately, he listened to advice; no one on the warship died, but many had broken bones from the powerful impact.

It was hard to imagine what would have happened if they hadn’t activated the defense barrier.

At this moment, Jiang Ming’s gaze towards Zhao Xing completely changed.

His eyes were filled with awe.

"The Volcano Skill is so terrifying. If my camp had been at the mountain’s base, wouldn’t we all have been wiped out by now?"
