Chapter 38

In this extraordinary era, being able to meet was already a kind of fate.

Moreover, supporting each other was fated to be the same.

Therefore, from this point of view, Lin Meng’s heart had trained Betty as his confidant.

And now, Betty had not let him down.

In time, Betty would definitely become his right-hand man.

Thinking of this, Lin Meng’s gaze towards Betty became gentler.

Crack.

As the branch broke, a drop of rich life essence slowly fell on Betty’s body.

However, what Lin Meng didn’t realize was that the moment the life essence touched Betty.

Betty, who was sleeping, suddenly smiled.

“Master…”

With a hint of attachment, Betty fell into a deeper sleep.

…

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was already winter.

Heavy snow fluttered in the depths of the mountains.

The sky and earth were covered in white. Snowflakes fell from the sky, making the earth appear somewhat dazzling under the gaze of the eyes.

However, even when the heavy snow fell, the fog in the valley still didn’t disperse.

The fog covered the mountains.

However, this was not the most terrifying thing.

The truly terrifying thing was that the fog had already covered hundreds of mountains.

At this time, if one looked down from the sky…

They would definitely be quite shocked.

It was over 100 kilometers long and 30 to 40 kilometers wide. Hundreds of mountains were covered in the fog.

Every few hundred meters, there was a mountain peak.

Fortunately, the fog only spread in the mountains and did not spread to the city.

Otherwise, what they were waiting for was not for the human army to station outside the mountains and be vigilant of the situation in the mountains.

Instead, it was for real guns and cannons to bombard the mountains.

However, would the humans’ proudest act of dumping goods really have any effect on the fog that was life-like?

Lin Meng, who was deep in the mountains, revealed a strange smile.

A few months had passed.

During these days, Lin Meng didn’t do much.

Apart from maintaining the fog’s spread, another thing he did was to use the evolution points from his “pets” to continuously strengthen himself.

For a few months, hundreds and thousands of evolution points were used to strengthen his thousands of branches.

It had to be said that the consumption was really terrifying.

However, compared to the consumption, the harvest was worth it.

At this moment, if one looked up at the Beiyu Canyon.

One would definitely see a green waterfall that was dozens of meters wide descending from the sky.

This was the thousands of branches that Lin Meng had strengthened.

Each branch was at level 2 according to its rank.

Not to mention the others, just the combat strength of a single branch was enough to kill an ordinary level 7 or 8—or even level 9 mutated beast.

And now, Lin Meng had hundreds of such branches.

One could imagine how terrifying it would be if hundreds of branches were killed at the same time.

Heaven collapsing? Earth-shattering?

What was even more shocking was that Lin Meng’s branches had already reached a range of about 100 meters.

In other words, within a radius of 100 meters, everything had become his domain.

“Hu…”

After taking a deep breath, Lin Meng finally felt the true meaning of power.

According to the human’s classification of peak spiritual power, his current peak spiritual power was at least 70,000 to 80,000.

And such terrifying spiritual power, if it appeared on a mutated beast…

According to Lin Meng’s guess, this mutated beast could destroy a county in half a day.

Of course, as a willow tree, Lin Meng didn’t have such ability.

However, if a beast with a peak spiritual power of 70,000 to 80,000 appeared within a few hundred meters of its body.

Lin Meng was confident that it wouldn’t live past the next day.

This was Lin Meng’s confidence.

In close combat, Lin Meng was invincible.

Those who dared to offend him within a white rice field were either not born or had already become a corpse.

With a chuckle, Lin Meng’s confidence increased.

The current him was among the peak existences of transcendent tier one.

He only needed to strengthen the tree root once more and then borrow evolution points to have a chance of breaking through to transcendent tier two.

And what did transcendent tier 2 mean?

Hundreds of thousands of peak spiritual power.

Just a casual movement of his body was enough to shatter the world and break the river.

Just like the current Lin Meng, although he only had 70,000 to 80,000 peak spiritual power.

But if he chose to explode, his terrifying battle prowess was comparable to an ordinary transcendent tier 2. In an instant, he could destroy the two to three hundred meters long Beiyu Canyon.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he would even raze it to the ground.

And according to what Betty had heard from the humans…

A transcendent-level tier 2 could already be considered a disaster.

However, let’s talk about transcendent-level tier 1 first.

In the past few months, a transcendent-level tier 1 mutated beast was no longer a legend.

Just like in the depths of the ocean, such a terrifying monster was already very common.

And how terrifying was such an extraordinary tier one mutated beast? Or even a sea monster?

They were already close to demonizing and possessed a basic level of self-thinking consciousness. They were able to keenly sense danger and deal with it.

What was even more shocking was that such a monster was no longer afraid of bullets and other hot weapons.

Its combat strength was extremely terrifying.

Among the discoveries that humans had made, a mutated octopus with a peak spiritual force of over 80,000 had wreaked havoc in the waters near the country of cherry blossoms.

It had even successfully sunk a 10,000-ton cargo ship.

And because of this, the entire human race knew how terrifying a transcendent-level 1 was.

It was not an existence that ordinary firearms could kill.

If there were more and more mutated beasts of this level, it would be enough to threaten the entire human race.

For this, experts from hundreds of countries walked to the front and started the first international discussion.

However, it was fortunate that after 10 days of research, they came to an unquestionable conclusion.

It was to become a transcendent-level 1.

It was very difficult.

Very difficult.

It was a leap in the level of life and even a true sublimation of the soul.

As a result, the entire human race felt a little more at ease.

However, not long after the people felt more at ease, the true undercurrent was surging.

That was because the Chinese Federation and the Freedom Alliance across the Pacific Ocean had discovered a terrifying fact.

That there is a second order beyond the first order of transcendence.

The body is surging with hundreds of thousands of spiritual power, which is the true meaning of the embodiment of disaster.

If, say, transcendence one is merely a threat to a city…

So, transcendent level two, able to destroy cities at will, definitely not just talk.

Their existence is both a disaster and a ruin.

Unless humanity took out their national weapon—nuclear weapons—it would not be an easy matter to wipe them out in an absolute sense.
