Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Chapter 2275 The Entire Army Launched

As winter descended, the warriors hidden within the eldest son's body finally activated. They had been concealed there to control the air conditioning system within him. Now, they had turned all those air conditioners on to cooling mode, and at maximum power.

These devices, which utilize compressor-like mechanisms and operate on the same principles as refrigerators and air conditioners, have become the most efficient tools for transferring extremely low temperatures from the outside world into the baby's body.

As these traitors activated the temperature circulation system within the eldest son's body, both the internal and external temperatures, which had previously prevented rapid heat loss, began to drop at the same rate, with some areas experiencing a faster drop in internal temperature than external. The eldest son had almost adapted to the anesthesia and evolved resistance to the anesthetic. However, as his senses gradually returned, another method of blocking his senses emerged: cold. In frigid environments, the transmission of neural signals is difficult, especially at extremely low temperatures. In environments of minus thirty or forty degrees Celsius, the eldest son could easily maintain his body temperature using his physical constitution. Even in slightly more extreme environments, such as minus seventy or eighty degrees Celsius, the eldest son would only need to evolve a harder outer shell to provide some insulation, allowing him to easily withstand the cold.

Theoretically, even the eldest son wouldn't be completely helpless against such ultra-low temperatures where the air itself has turned into liquid. However, his various methods are currently restricted, and his body is paralyzed. He's unable to evolve that full outer shell immediately. On the contrary, not only is he unable to keep warm, but his previous erroneous evolution has also allowed the icy aura to penetrate his body even faster.

In this state of being unable to control his body, being frozen means he's once again under forced anesthesia, and ultra-low temperature is an environment even harder to adapt to than anesthetic drugs. After all, at ultra-low temperatures, all molecular thermal motion slows down. This physical law means that even with the ability to adapt, the speed of adaptation will be slower. This is extremely rare; even with unlimited adaptability, it's not certain that one could adapt in time. A super-powerful killing move.

Ice covered the eldest son's body, freezing deeper and deeper. Once completely frozen, even with his abilities, he was powerless to do anything. However, it was impossible to freeze his entire body; a portion remained unfrozen, becoming his last bastion. This remaining part of his body, still capable of sensing, formed a remarkably strong insulating barrier, virtually impenetrable to heat.

He Cheng also observed this change in his eldest son through wave scanning. Having undergone human modification, they possessed abilities very similar to their eldest son, albeit weakened versions. They also shared the eldest son's sensory abilities. They could sense the changes occurring within his body; he couldn't control over over 90% of his physical form, but the remaining portion was firmly under his control, separated from the outside by an insulating barrier, maintaining its internal temperature to maximize its power. This was probably the eldest son's weakest point. Normally, this would be the perfect opportunity to launch a fierce attack, especially with two immortals present and one assisting.

However, the arrival of winter was far too sudden and unexpected. The Five Elements Mage and Old Ancestor Xuehu were naturally enveloped within the barrier. Therefore, unsurprisingly, they too suffered the blow of winter and were nearly frozen solid. This extreme low temperature was unbearable for them. After all, the temperature had dropped to the point where even gases would condense into water droplets. Although the smaller size of the human body required less energy to maintain warmth, the time needed for heat conduction was also reduced. It was almost instantaneous that their body temperature could be lowered to an extremely low level. The two immortals had to constantly expend energy to maintain their body temperature within a relatively normal range.

Even more astonishingly, the temperature within the barrier continued to drop, though it could no longer be described as mere air temperature, as the gas had begun to condense. The mode of heat transfer had shifted from convection to radiation, and even in a vacuum, the temperature was steadily decreasing. Temperature in a vacuum is difficult to measure. Undoubtedly, the eldest son's heat was being continuously extracted. Simultaneously, the extraordinary power of the blizzard began to descend upon the barrier. Streams of extraordinary power simulating a gale raged within the barrier like blades. Without air, there was no wind in the conventional sense; what truly traversed this space were compressed energy bodies shaped like blades. Incredibly sharp and incredibly fast, they could slice through a target in an instant. If hit, the temperature would plummet to extremely low levels.

Since the two immortals couldn't launch an attack, the attack on the eldest son was redirected to the underground base, which the immortals then personally initiated. The countless blades flying everywhere were like a meat grinder. The eldest son's massive body, frozen solid, was uncontrollably sliced ​​off piece by piece. This was probably the fastest this behemoth had ever lost its size. The tentacles extending from the periphery, being thinner, were among the first to freeze, now as fragile as glass. They were sliced ​​off without any resistance. Only the nearly spherical central body remained, and even that was being peeled away bit by bit, like peeling a potato.

However, the situation inside the eldest son's body was not optimistic. Although most of his body was frozen, the part that was preserved was burning with supernatural power and its own matter to generate heat, while simultaneously pulling more of the frozen body matter directly into the constant temperature barrier he had constructed.

These cells were originally his; although freezing caused some damage, the eldest son's vitality allowed him to repair them in a very short time. Once the temperature returned to normal, these cells, having experienced ultra-low temperatures, would evolve into more freeze-resistant cells and become part of his body. As the eldest son's body was continuously reduced, the parts of his body that he could control were rapidly expanding. This made the outcome of the battle suddenly unpredictable. After regaining control of his body, the threat of ultra-low temperatures to the eldest son was greatly reduced. With autonomous evolution, it was possible to evolve an insulating layer on his body surface to prevent himself from freezing in a short time, although ultra-low temperatures would still affect his combat abilities, but that effect was limited.

At this moment in the underground base, the soldiers had to do something; they had to find a way to stop the eldest son from recovering too quickly.

Previously, a large number of warriors had burrowed into the intestines, using the air conditioning system to reverse the flow and supply low temperatures into the eldest son's body. They had been frozen inside the eldest son's body, forced into hibernation. They were prepared beforehand, with a thick layer of insulation around their bodies and equipment designed to maintain their temperature and preserve their lives. However, after observing the eldest son's condition, these warriors forcibly restarted their bodily functions in the freezing winter, awakening their bodies and using massive amounts of energy to temporarily maintain their operation, ensuring that the body temperature did not drop to an unusable level.

"The eldest son is steadily recovering. If we don't break through that thermostatic layer, more and more of his body will recover. Conversely, if we break through the thermostatic layer and create a hole, the low temperature will spread out along the hole, or in other words, the heat inside the eldest son will leak out along the hole. The more holes there are, the more energy will leak out. We are now the warriors closest to his recovering body. Although we weren't originally supposed to be fighting the eldest son in this icy wasteland, it's time for us to do our part and show the eldest son our power." The warriors, who should have been in hibernation awaiting rescue, forcibly awoke and started their vehicles. These vehicles, equipped with pseudo-infinite energy, were far from having unlimited energy, but they could release a massive amount of energy in a short time to maintain their operation. At this moment, the bio-mechs began to change shape, their original aerodynamic form transforming into a more slender shuttle shape. Screw-like threads began to appear, rotating as they rapidly advanced into the eldest son's body. Because when they were first driven in, they had already penetrated to a great depth, so now they only need to go down a short distance to find the Gwent layer on the surface of the eldest son's body.

Thousands of warriors set off simultaneously, and as they expected, their scans quickly revealed a drastic temperature change between the inside and outside of a certain area. A large number of mechs charged forward without hesitation. Instantly, the insulation layer reconstructed by the First Son was breached, releasing a massive amount of heat and causing a rapid drop in temperature across a large internal area, freezing it back into a state of disrepair. However, upon realizing it had been ambushed, the First Son quickly made a decision. The reason it hadn't noticed before was because the attackers' life characteristics were so similar to its own body. The mechs used by these people were also made from the modified flesh and blood of the First Son, although the cells and core structure had been replaced, significantly reducing the mechs' self-replication capabilities and lifespan. However, their outward aura closely resembled the First Son's own energy core, deceiving it to some extent. But after recognizing these as enemy weapons, the First Son still had many ways to identify them and engage them precisely.

The wave after wave of warriors charging forward were met with fierce firepower. Even with their extremely agile movements, many were still struck and destroyed by the terrifying energy torrents during their charge.

However, their sacrifice was not in vain. Besides destroying themselves, the energy torrent also destroyed a large number of the eldest sons' bodies before hitting them. The frozen bodies of the eldest sons became extremely fragile, and the torrent's power, used to destroy the energy they released, was undoubtedly immense—even exceeding their own maximum output power. This meant that a single attack, if it didn't hit instantly, would inflict considerable damage on the eldest sons' bodies—more efficient than if they had destroyed them themselves.

Realizing this, many began playing hide-and-seek with the eldest son, using their agile movements to manipulate energy surges and repeatedly sever the eldest son's frozen body. However, this was still the most devastating casualty since the start of the war; many warriors who should have been rescued in hibernation charged forward for victory. At this very moment, others were also striving for victory. Though not human, they were the war's trump card, freaks capable of unleashing their full fighting power, or even greater strength, in the icy wilderness.

The Yeti army had now entered a state of near-perfection, led by Duan Yun, as they faced this pivotal battle that would change the fate of the Yeti race.

Under their combined operation, the war-destroying technique was almost 100% effective. This newly condensed technique enveloped the entire legion, making them completely immune to all the negative effects of the extreme cold—something no other legion or individual could achieve, not even the eldest son. Simultaneously, another war-destroying technique, controlling ice and snow and temperature, was also condensed. Under the control of the entire legion's will, the power of ice and snow transformed into a colossal sword hundreds of miles long, more terrifying than a mountain range, slicing towards the massive body of the eldest son as easily as cutting fruit. Only in this unique, icy environment could the Snowman Legion possibly condense such a cataclysmic super war-destroying technique.

The giant sword in the sky was powerful enough to cleave a continent, enough to destroy a city in an instant, and wipe out a nation. However, for someone of the eldest son's caliber, this level of attack was merely enough to pose a threat.

The giant sword descended from the sky, causing temperatures to drop further in its wake. Objects touched by the sword instantly absorbed a massive amount of heat, and if struck by multiple blows, a large surrounding area would freeze solid. After all, this sword was formed from solidified air; even without any supernatural power, most substances in the world would freeze instantly upon contact with it.

The eldest son's frozen body was struck by the giant sword and, unsurprisingly, cleaved in two. It was like breaking open the frozen flesh of a fruit, revealing the pit inside. The eldest son's internal body, still alive, was forced to be exposed in this terrifying attack. However, relying on his extraordinary power, he constructed a barrier that directly blocked the horrific assault.

Standing in the cold wind, watching the two eighth-level immortals unleash this devastating attack: "???"
