Atlas of Heaven and Man

Outside the Meng Manor, Chen Chuan saw Meng Shu and her group off at the parking lot, saying, "You should have a place to go, right? I think Mr. Meng should have made arrangements."

Meng Shu nodded and said, "Yes, Grandpa just told me to go to a safe house to hide."

"Then you should hide inside first."

Meng Shu asked, "Aren't you coming with us?"

Chen Chuan looked towards the manor and said, "I still have things I must do." With that, he waved his hand, and carrying the Snow Monarch Saber, he walked back the way he had come.

Aunt Yu nodded to show she understood. However, just as she was about to leave, taking the man out with her, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She immediately threw the security guard in her hand out.

Before he could fall to the ground, the surface of his body suddenly exploded, and a wax-like substance flowed and splattered out, landing on the floor and walls.

Wherever these substances touched, they emitted a sizzling sound, corroding some parts of the originally solid floor and walls, and spreading to the surroundings, instantly damaging the parts that had been used to construct the ritual.

"It seems you were also prepared," Meng Lai immediately understood. This man looked normal on the surface, but Meng Huang must have tampered with him internally.

Meng Huang let out a rumbling laugh. His body grew taller again, seemingly about to break through the ceiling.

Meng Lai quickly instructed, "Aunt Yu, go!"

"Do you think you can escape!"

Meng Huang had been standing in place, unable to move, but at this moment, he began to struggle. The places that had been just phantoms suddenly seemed to become solid objects, covering the four walls of the sturdy room, making cracking sounds. Cracks began to appear on the walls.

Aunt Yu had already been trying to break out when Meng Lai gave the order, but several times when she rushed to the window or the door, she was blocked by that invisible phantom. Those things seemed to be just shadows, but they could cause real damage.

Meng Huang knew that Aunt Yu was the person Meng Lai trusted most and might have some arrangements to carry out. Even if she didn't, it would be better to get rid of her now than to deal with her later. Therefore, his body swayed, and a huge, twisting phantom limb on the wall suddenly slapped towards her.

Aunt Yu took a deep breath at this moment. As she did so, patterns such as floral branches and vines immediately appeared on her fair skin. Then, she raised her hand and pushed outward.

Her five fingers seemed extremely soft, but this light movement blocked the ethereal limb with a bang. Then, she opened her shoulder, extended her other hand outward, and quickly twisted her waist, pressing down on the back of her hand, actually rebounding the limb back. Then, taking advantage of the momentum, she leaped forward and pressed a palm against Meng Huang's chest.

This palm seemed to contain immense power. Meng Huang's huge body was actually pushed backward by her. Aunt Yu took the opportunity to sink down, wanting to quickly pass through a gap on the side at this moment.

However, already at the door, several phantom limbs suddenly gathered into a larger one, blocking the way forward and pushing horizontally towards her.

She reached out to block it, but felt an immense force coming from it, completely impossible for a single person to resist. She could only dissipate the impact while doing a light backflip.

Although she avoided this attack, she was also forced back. She said calmly, "Master, I may not be able to leave, but I can hold him back for now."

Meng Lai said in a deep voice, "You must leave."

He grasped the pocket watch he had been holding from the beginning, and just as he was about to open it, suddenly there was movement at the door. With a bang, the thick door panel, which had not shattered when Meng Huang propped it up earlier, was now blown to pieces. A straight figure appeared there.

Chen Chuan slowly walked in from outside, glanced at the situation inside the room, and looked at the huge body, "It seems I've arrived just in time."

Meng Huang immediately looked over at him, narrowing his eyes. The eyes on his body seemed to open and close together, and the dense teeth also rubbed against each other.

Although he was still a certain distance from the door and couldn't come over at this time, looking at the precarious state of the room, he should be able to break free soon.

Meng Lai was slightly surprised and said, "Executive Chen, I didn't expect you to come back."

At this moment, that huge shadowy limb suddenly slapped towards him, and almost instantly arrived, sticking to the wall. Aunt Yu had just experienced the power of it and hurriedly reminded, "Careful!"

Chen Chuan raised his hand at this time, and the limb smashed into his arm. With a bang, the entire room shook, but he remained motionless.

He stood there, still having the leisure to say in a steady tone, "Mr. Meng, you have what you want to do, and I also have what I must do."

After saying that, he backhanded a punch at the shadowy limb. When he punched, there was a thunderous roar, and the shadowy limb was shattered, and Meng Huang's body also tilted.

And on his fist, there seemed to be condensed clouds floating.

Aunt Yu exclaimed in surprise, "Cloud Bursting Hand?"

Just at this time, the entire room seemed to shake. The surrounding decorations all exploded, and cracks appeared from the walls to the top to the floor.

The restraints on Meng Huang were finally broken at this time, and his power would become more complete. However, at this time, he did not attack anyone present, but instead drilled his body downwards.

As he made this move, with a loud bang, a large piece of the floor immediately collapsed downwards, and the cement slabs and bricks from the roof above also fell down.

Chen Chuan casually pushed away the falling beams, took two steps forward, and looked down. He saw rumbling sounds constantly coming from below, and the ground under his feet was trembling. The layers of floor below were like fragile sand, being pierced through by Meng Huang layer by layer and falling to the bottom.

He directly leaped down from this ninth floor, and finally landed on the ground with a bang. His knees bent slightly to dissipate the pressure, splashing up a circle of dust.

Just as he came down, Meng Huang's situation was different again. He seemed to instantly penetrate the ground like an invisible shadow in a burst of virtualization, and went deeper below.

Aunt Yu also jumped down from the broken floor at this time, using the force continuously. After she saw this situation, she said, "Follow me, there is an entrance in the back."

Chen Chuan glanced at the bottom and said, "No need." He clenched his fist, and at the same time, a deep breath came from his body. After a moment of stagnation, he suddenly punched down!

The ground below undulated like waves. With a thunderous roar, a large amount of debris splashed to the side. After the dust dissipated, a pit large enough for two people to pass through had been punched out below, and the wisps of cloud on his fist dissipated and continued to rise.

Aunt Yu couldn't help but look at him in astonishment. Even with such power, could he really be unharmed under that kind of reaction force?

Chen Chuan didn't look at her, but jumped directly down. After landing on the ground, he saw that this was a five- or six-meter-high space, with passages of ten or so meters on both sides, enough for vehicles to drive through. There were also two forks in the distance, each leading to a farther place.

However, there was no trace of Meng Huang here, and the biological field he felt at this moment was also in chaos. It seemed that there were such fields of existence everywhere he passed, making it impossible to clearly distinguish where he had run to.

However, he closed his eyes, and his brow slightly twitched. After a moment, he opened his eyes and tracked down in a certain direction.

Aunt Yu also landed at this time. She originally wanted to remind Chen Chuan, but seeing Chen Chuan going in the right direction, she stopped talking and followed him.

Chen Chuan's speed was extremely fast. Although forks in the road appeared from time to time, he didn't seem to need to identify the road at all. He could always find the right direction, and he would turn the corners without slowing down at all. The way he didn't consider the joint's bearing capacity made Aunt Yu behind him look surprised.

Before long, the two arrived in a larger underground space. This place was like a parking lot, but there was a circular door with locks at the top and bottom in front. Half of Meng Huang's huge body had turned into a shadow and was attached to it, seemingly wanting to break through inside, but he couldn't get in for a while.

Chen Chuan stopped. He could see that the walls and doors had dense ritual patterns. He asked, "What's that place?"

Aunt Yu had also arrived at this time. She walked forward a few steps and came to Chen Chuan's side.

"That's where the Master's true body stays. Meng Huang wants to find that place."

Chen Chuan said, "Is he just trying to kill Mr. Meng?"

"Mainly for the company's implant key, and…" Aunt Yu hesitated for a moment.

Seeing that she didn't continue, Chen Chuan didn't ask further. He stared at Meng Huang, who had undergone another change. Wisps of black smoke emerged from the gaps in his body. Looking more closely, it wasn't smoke at all, but a fusion of reality and illusion.

There seemed to be unidentifiable things wriggling and rolling inside, an existence that reversed the understanding of the normal world, not just physiological, but also extreme mental discomfort.

He slowly raised the Snow Monarch Saber, holding it horizontally in front of him. With a wave of his hand, the scabbard was moved away, revealing the shining blade. He turned the blade and walked towards the huge figure.
