Chapter 88: Chapter 88 Nuclear Explosion

Chu Yunsheng’s monster seal talisman could also be used to seal all kinds of animals. But the sealed animals would lose their souls and their emotions. Even if he could completely control them, they would become a robot, a walking dead.

The little one had a soul. Although it was an animal’s soul, as long as it was alive, it had the ability to feel happy, angry, brave, and scared. It would become just like its mother, having a strong connection towards its keeper and protecting its keeper.

At least, the little one did not need Chu Yunsheng’s yuan qi to feed it.

Chu Yunsheng tried to collect the insects’ bodies on the road to make a brand new combat armor, however, he didn’t find many.

Based on his recent study of the ancient book, he found out that level two combat armor talisman had three tiers:

The first tier was called Yi Pin armor. The one Chu Yunsheng made when he was at Yuan Tan stage one was exactly this type of armor. It had a relatively low defense ability. Although it could increase the user’s physical strength, it was not a lot compared to the other tiers.

When Chu Yunsheng reached Yuan Tian stage two, he was able to use Ben Ti Yuan Qi(1) to refine an armor to the second tier, which was called Er Pin armor. It was similar to the one Chu Yunsheng made in the Fog City.

However, at that time Chu Yunsheng was in a hurry, he didn’t collect enough shells to refine the combat armor. So, the Er Pin combat armor he made was not complete, otherwise, the armor wouldn’t have broken that easily.

The last tier, which was San Pin armor, would only be available when he reached the peak of Yuan Tian stage two because it would require his Ben Ti yuan qi to be powerful enough to refine the strongest armor in Yuan Tian stage two.

Of course, if the raw materials were different, the quality and the power of the combat armor would also be different. However, the only material he had right now were the red shells and some green shells.

Chu Yunsheng made himself a first tier armor from the shells he had. He then tied the box that had the little tiger to his chest, and carried on walking towards Jin Ling City.

He has been walking for a very long time. From the information he could barely see on the broken billboard on the roadside, he estimated that he was probably nearing Xi Cheng City.

Insects soon started to appear more frequently, their number also started to increase rapidly. In the end, there were so many that he had to stop moving and try to find a way to get around the swarm of insects.

He was scared that if he stayed too long he would encounter the long legged monster again. There was a big lake to his south, going around the lake would only take too much time, so he had to head towards the north. He prepared to walk along the Yangtze River to get to Jin Ling City.

Because of the swarm, it delayed him for another few days. The little one was two times bigger than when he just had it. It couldn’t be hidden in the box anymore.

When Chu Yunsheng fully recovered, the little one couldn’t catch up with his speed, so he had to hold it under his left armpit while using his right hand to hold his sword.

When the sky went completely dark, they would usually find a place to hide, when the hazy shimmers appeared again, they would be back on the road. The insects did not care if there were hazy shimmers in the sky or not, they were ruthless and did not seem to be scared of anything.

Luckily, the little one was very well behaved. After seeing how brutal the insects could be a few times, it became very quiet at night.

The little one had a habit of sleeping during the day and staying active at night. Even if it did not learn anything from its mother, this habit was probably in its genes.

So everytime when Chu Yunsheng was asleep, the little one would try its best to watch out for him. It had a very good hearing ability, maybe because of its wind elemental energy. It would often notice insects even if they were still very far away from them.

Every time when the little one noticed an enemy, it would lick Chu Yunsheng’s face and try to wake him up. Then Chu Yunsheng would pick it up, and based on the situation, he would decide whether he needed to run away or to fight back.

One human and one tiger, both were going through every terrifying night by cuddling each other underneath the endless dark sky.

Chu Yunsheng had lost his night vision goggles so he tried to avoid encountering even just a few red-shelled insects.

The insects had their own way of communicating with each other. If he encountered them and if he couldn’t see anything during a fight, they would have a chance to send out signals, then he might end up being surrounded by a large group of insects. He might even end up running into the insect’s hive.

That was why he would rather hide at the cold dark night with the little one than walk in the dark.

Luckily, they both had energy shield talisman, so their scents were blocked from spreading out, as long as they did not make any sound. The chances of being discovered by insects were very low.

When the hazy shimmers once again appeared in the sky, Chu Yunsheng took the ‘sleepyhead’, which was the little one, back on the road to escape, once again. Since the day Yu Xiaohai was taken away by a green-shelled insect, he had never had a good sleep like what he had now.

…A few days later…..

In order to avoid encountering a large group of insects nearby, Chu Yunsheng spent a long time and finally found an alternative route to get to Cheng City. However, the insects he encountered still do not seem to have reduced any. His instinct told him that there must be a terrifying amount of insects in the west.

On a windy night, when the sky was as dark as usual, Chu Yunsheng took the little one and was about to hide in a civilian house when he suddenly saw the first mushroom cloud in his life appearing on the horizon in the far west.

At that moment, the whole world seemed to be lit up by the explosion. Then, it was replaced by rolling flames that quickly spread out from the distant horizon. In the center, a huge smoke and fire hemisphere were shot straight into the sky, and soon it became a famous death symbol – the mushroom cloud!

“A nuclear bomb!” Chu Yunsheng’s mind instantly went blank.

A powerful shockwave that was enough to destroy everything quickly spread out from the center of the mushroom cloud. It caused the ground to shake and mountains to move. It was destroying everything in its way!

The shockwave also brought a tremendous amount of dust and stones with it, and it was coming towards Chu Yunsheng.

Chu Yunsheng instantly came back from the shock. He immediately turned around, picked up the little one, and started to run.

He was running as fast as he could!
