I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters

Since the establishment of Shelter No. 36,

The most intense and dangerous battle broke out instantly!

All the weapons capable of attacking Guan Chong, a super strongman at the early stage of the fourth tier, were unleashed without reservation. Every second, hundreds or even thousands of tons of bullets and shells were poured towards Guan Chong!
With the near-unlimited resource supply from top-tier fifth-order experts like Lin Xuankong, Han Liu, and Han Bao, etc.

The heavy firepower of Shelter No. 36 is comparable to that of any major first-tier city in the Tang Kingdom. Even if it cannot compare to the impregnable headquarters of the Zhennan Wang family, which possesses various supersonic missiles and super-large bombs, its conventional firepower is even more insane than that of the Zhennan Wang family's headquarters!

If it were a top-tier fifth-order life form with superior genes...
Faced with such terrifying firepower, even if one could withstand such intense bombardment with their own strong body, a large amount of source energy would be consumed rapidly, forcing them to temporarily retreat or constantly dodge! After all, no matter how strong a fifth-tier top-level gene powerhouse is, the heavy machine guns and high-powered automatic machine guns of Vault 36 use sixth-tier top-level alloy shells and a portion of fifth-tier alloy shells for all their bullets and shells!
Such weapons, if used for continuous bombardment and strafing, can also injure some top-tier fifth-order life level experts with slightly weaker talent and genetic abilities!

however,
At this moment, the strongman who resisted the fierce firepower of Shelter No. 36 was a true fourth-tier super strongman, the deputy minister of the Enforcement Department of the Yunqin Alliance, who was extremely famous as a fourth-tier super strongman!
When all the bullets and shells from the heavy machine guns and high-powered automatic machine guns, accompanied by deadly sonic booms, approached within fifty meters of Guan Chong, a super strong expert at the early stage of the fourth tier, an invisible wave suddenly appeared!

That was the powerful fluctuation generated by Guan Chong, a super strong expert at the early stage of the fourth rank, when he mobilized his extremely pure source energy at the fourth rank.

The moment this seemingly invisible fluctuation appeared, it caused the space around Guan Chong, a fourth-tier super powerhouse, to slightly distort, forming a semi-transparent, semi-circular dome. It made it appear as if Guan Chong's body, a nascent-level super powerhouse, was encased in a giant, semi-circular jelly placed on the ground.

Bullets and shells made of seventh-order alloys, sixth-order alloys, and even a very small number of top-tier fifth-order alloys kept crashing into that semi-transparent 'jelly' at speeds many times faster than the speed of sound!
The bullets and shells made of seventh-tier alloy and sixth-tier alloy have sharp tips. If they were to hit seventh-tier and sixth-tier gene warriors directly, they would be able to easily pierce their skin. Therefore, even seventh-tier and sixth-tier gene warriors need to dodge these alloy bullets or wear high-strength alloy armor to defend against their terrifying penetrating power!
As for bullets and shells made of top-tier fifth-order alloys, although they are extremely rare, they are equipped with the most powerful high-explosive gunpowder, so they are faster and have more terrifying penetrating power than other grades of alloy bullets. Even top-tier fifth-order gene powerhouses would still need to use alloy armor or their own defensive capabilities to withstand such bullets!

At this moment, the number of alloy bullets and bombs fired at Guan Chong, a super strongman in the early stage of the fourth rank, was more than ten thousand. It was estimated that more than fifty thousand had been fired in just one second!
However, these terrifying bullets and shells, capable of tearing through the skin and flesh of seventh-tier, sixth-tier, and top-tier fifth-tier gene warriors, only produced some strange popping sounds when they hit the misty 'jelly' surrounding Guan Chong's body. They created some ripples, slightly denting the outer layer of the mist before losing their momentum and falling to the ground with a series of clanging sounds.

As Guan Chong, a super strong expert at the early stage of the fourth tier, continued to move ahead, the thousands of high-powered automatic and heavy machine guns fired their fire lines, always locking onto him and pouring countless bullets and shells onto the mist that appeared on his body!

Unfortunately, no matter how powerful those bullets were, they could not penetrate the defenses and fell to the ground one after another!
Guan Chong, a fourth-tier early-stage super strongman who slowly walked towards Captain You Rui, was like an invincible god, blocking billions of bullets without feeling any pressure whatsoever!
At this moment, the attacks unleashed by the relatively small number of elemental gene warriors and special gene ability warriors in Shelter Thirty-Six all landed around the body of Guan Chong, a super strong expert at the early stage of the fourth tier.

Amazingly, no matter how magical and powerful the attacks of those elemental gene warriors and special gene warriors seemed, when they landed around Guan Chong, a super strong man in the early stage of the fourth tier, they only stirred up some ripples and could not stop his progress at all!
The countless ice blades, wind blades, flames, metal needles, meteorites falling from the sky, and spikes appearing from the ground all lost their power and vanished without a trace after colliding with the mist on Guan Chong's body!
This scene,
The sight of every genetic warrior in Vault 36 filled them with astonishment, and their spirits sank even lower.

At this moment, the feeling that Guan Chong, a super strong expert at the early stage of the fourth rank, gave them was as if there was an absolute barrier around his body that could never be broken by human power!
The problem is, this terrifying early-stage fourth-tier super strongman, Guan Chong, hasn't even launched a real attack yet!

How can one defeat a super strong expert in the early stage of the fourth tier who seems to possess an eternal and invincible power?
This question was on everyone's mind, yet none of the Vault 36 genetic warriors present had an answer!

Yu Rui, the captain of Shelter No. 36, also had no answer in her heart at this moment.

Even Sun Lin, a plant-type gene powerhouse who was activating five super ancient trees and unleashing terrifying power, had absolutely no answer in his mind at this moment!
The ancient super trees she activated possessed immense power.
Even Yi Xue, the second strongest of the fifth rank in the Yunqin Alliance, still needed to activate a large number of snowflakes to resist her overwhelming attack of alloy fruit explosion spikes!
However, Guan Chong, a super strong cultivator at the early stage of the fourth tier, remained unmoved by the barrage of explosive alloy fruit spikes erupting from her five towering ancient trees. The explosive fruit spikes, clearly more powerful than machine gun shells, only left a tiny, insignificant ripple on the 'jelly' surrounding Guan Chong's body. Guan Chong didn't even bother to lift his eyelids! From this perspective, in Guan Chong's eyes, Sun Lin, a powerful fifth-tier gene expert and plant-type gene expert, seemed no different from ordinary sixth or seventh-tier gene warriors!
"Is this the defensive effect produced by the fluctuation space created by a fourth-tier super powerhouse casually activating source energy? As expected, it is impossible for anyone other than a fourth-tier powerhouse to break through the defense of a fourth-tier powerhouse!"

Sun Lin, a plant-type gene powerhouse who was attacking with all her might, frowned and spoke as she watched the fruit explosion, which was enough to severely injure several top-tier fifth-order powerhouses, fail to produce any effect whatsoever.

Captain You Rui sighed slightly and shook her head, saying, "The gap between a fourth-tier super powerhouse and a fifth-tier gene powerhouse is already enormous! Starting from the fourth tier, the defensive and offensive effects generated by the source energy fluctuations alone are beyond the reach of a fifth-tier powerhouse!"
Even a fifth-tier gene powerhouse, capable of overturning mountains and seas and possessing unparalleled power, can still be defeated by a sufficient number of sixth-tier powerhouses who also possess powerful special gene abilities. They may also succumb to the desperate attacks of a large number of sixth- or seventh-tier gene warriors and ultimately perish! However, fourth-tier super powerhouses cannot be defeated by sheer numbers!
Once a fourth-tier super powerhouse releases its source energy fluctuations, no attack from a fifth, sixth, or seventh-tier gene warrior can penetrate the distorted space and strike the body of a fourth-tier super powerhouse! Fourth-tier super powerhouses have already touched upon the most fundamental spacetime energy of the universe!
Unless a fourth-tier super-strong expert is caught completely off guard and self-destructs after being approached by a large number of fifth-tier experts, it's simply impossible for any fifth-tier expert to injure a fourth-tier expert after the fourth-tier expert has unleashed their source energy fluctuations!

Unlike Sun Lin, a plant-type gene powerhouse, Captain You Rui had personally witnessed the battle between fourth-tier super powerhouses! Back then, outside Jianzhou City in Yunqin Kingdom, the battle between the fourth-tier super powerhouses of Team One's First Group was something Sun Lin, the plant-type gene powerhouse, couldn't see through the thick rock layers to witness! Lin Xuankong and Sun Lin both possessed the special gene ability of the Eye of Truth, yet they were able to see the battle between the fourth-tier super powerhouses above the cave using their penetrating vision!

Therefore, Captain You Rui understood even better than Sun Lin, a plant-type gene powerhouse, just how powerful and terrifying a fourth-tier super powerhouse was!
That's why Lin Xuankong, who had witnessed the battle between fourth-tier super strongmen, didn't hesitate to focus his equipment research on defense and on developing the pseudo-purple qi armor!

Lin Xuankong was very clear that even if he could replicate the Universe Jade, without advancing to the fourth-order life level, he and You Rui, Han Bao, Han Liu and others, under the enhancement of the Universe Jade, could only defeat a few more fifth-order gene powerhouses, but would absolutely not be able to defeat any fourth-order super powerhouse, not even a fourth-order super powerhouse who had just entered the fourth-order life level and had not yet evolved to perfection!
Upon hearing Captain You Rui's words, Sun Lin, a plant-type gene powerhouse, paused, her expression growing increasingly grave. "Does that mean that all the attacks inside Shelter 36 are futile and have absolutely no effect? ​​Faced with such a fourth-tier super powerhouse, since all attacks below the fourth tier are completely ineffective, shouldn't we immediately retreat in different directions?"

Captain You Rui shook her head again, her face reassuring, "It's not that bad. Although a fourth-tier super strongman can distort space once he unleashes his source energy fluctuations, rendering all attacks below the fourth tier ineffective, a fourth-tier super strongman like Guan Chong is ultimately only a fourth-tier early-stage super strongman. The space he can influence is only a relatively small area. Most importantly, we are not without hope!"

At this point, Captain You Rui glanced at the communicator in her hand, where Lin Xuankong's reply was clearly visible: Wang Shi will return to the shelter within ten minutes.

"hope?
Facing a fourth-tier super powerhouse, what hope do we have?

Sun Lin, a plant-type gene powerhouse, looked at her five super ancient trees, which had lost their connection with her amidst the energy fluctuations of Guan Chong, a super powerhouse at the early stage of the fourth rank. Her face darkened, and she said in a deep voice.

at this time,

Guan Chong, a fourth-tier super powerhouse, strolled leisurely, and amidst the monstrous gazes of countless gene warriors, he suddenly spoke:

"It seems that Captain You Rui has no intention of agreeing to my conditions? As expected of Lin Xuan Kong, the number one genius of the Fire Seed organization, she is quite proud. Even when facing a fourth-level super strongman, she still has hope. Do you still expect that Lin Xuan Kong will come back to save Shelter Thirty-Six?"

Don't even mention that Lin Xuankong wouldn't dare to return after hearing the news of my arrival. Even if he did, a fifth-tier gene expert, no matter how strong their special gene abilities, would be utterly powerless against a true fourth-tier super expert—a complete chicken and a dog, utterly incapable of resistance!

At this point, the super strong man at the early stage of the fourth rank suddenly changed his figure, transforming into a giant golden roc with a wingspan of hundreds of meters. The range of fluctuations emanating from the golden roc's body became even larger, and its claws were tens of meters long, with pure black tips that seemed to attract all the light around it.

"Is it the Black Claw Golden Roc?"

He was actually able to transform his body into a black-clawed golden roc?
This Black Clawed Golden Roc is the strongest bird of prey on Mars. It's a cloud beast on the Tang Kingdom's Source Beast Ranking. It's said that because it possesses a trace of this Black Clawed Golden Roc's bloodline, it gained unparalleled flight speed after becoming a Source Beast, far exceeding the speed of any other Source Beast on the continent! This Black Clawed Golden Roc not only possesses the terrifying speed of a cloud beast, but also the special genetic ability to manipulate light for attacks. Furthermore, it boasts strength and defense comparable to the most powerful Source Beast in the ocean, the Scaled Shark, making it arguably the most perfect Source Beast. It can easily defeat almost all Dragon-Elephant gene powerhouses of the same life level!
Could it be that Guan Chong, by transforming into this form, can possess some of the Black Claw Golden Roc's abilities?

Zhu Ling, a fifth-tier gene powerhouse and the third disciple of Lin Xuankong, immediately changed his expression upon seeing the source beast form that Guan Chong had transformed into.

Captain You Rui, whose eyes had previously held a glimmer of hope, suddenly changed her expression and shouted, "Everyone, listen to my command! Scatter and retreat! Immediately! Immediately! Immediately!" (End of Chapter)
