"Good!!!"

Central Command Center, Wang Ying'an, Jia Yi, and the others all shouted out happily.

The biggest threat to Jiangnan City has been eliminated.

Jiangnan City has truly held its ground!

"Quick!"

"Jia Yi, Zhang Tieshan, quickly lead the fighter squadron to pick up Little Yang!" Wang Ying'an ordered after his initial excitement.

Although Yang Yu didn't need combat support, there were still four giant Monsters corpses lying on the ground!

We can't let Little Yang, who just fought a big battle, drag the Monsters's corpse back again.

As the commander-in-chief, I have to do something.

Inside the canyon, Yang Yu remained vigilant.

Who knows if the Green-Armored Giant Dragon has mutated into Dragon-type Monster, is just playing dead? Just in case, Yang Yu waited quietly for several more minutes at a distance of a hundred meters from the Green-Armored Giant Dragon, until he had controlled his throwing knives to pierce its body thousands of times, Green-Armored Giant Dragon did not react at all.

Only then did Yang Yu feel safe enough to approach the corpse of the Green-Armored Giant Dragon.

At this moment, the Green-Armored Giant Dragon's dark golden vertical pupils were still open. In its final moments, the Green-Armored Giant Dragon did not touch Yang Yu even once.

It died with its eyes wide open in disbelief!

However, Yang Yu didn't care whether it died peacefully or not. He looked at the first high-level Lord-level Monster he had ever killed, which was a Dragon-type Monster.

Yang Yu felt a surge of pride.

He did it!

He single-handedly killed five Lord-level Monsters that were besieging the Jiangnan Base City!

Today, he single-handedly killed four Monsters lords!

At that moment, Yang Yu felt that he had been elevated.

Especially when he poured all the Thunder Intent he had comprehended into the flying knife at the last moment, Yang Yu's understanding of Thunder became even deeper!

Drawing the War Blade from his back, Yang Yu unleashed the Five Elements Thunder Blade that had previously slain millions of Monsters.

During this time, Yang Yu also consciously integrated the five Blade Technique into one, based on his understanding of the Thunder Intent.

Unfortunately, it was too difficult. Despite killing countless Monsters and using his best Fist Technique in the end, Yang Yu still couldn't truly unify the Five Element Fist.

But today!

Just then, the throwing knife unleashed its full power.

It embodies Yang Yu's ultimate intentions.

The complete and perfect integration of the Thunder Intent that I had already grasped into the throwing knife!

It was also perfectly imprinted in Yang Yu's mind!

At the same time, the previously vague Thunder Intent became clear.

It seems within easy reach!

Before the enormous, Green-Armored Giant Dragon's corpse, Yang Yu began practicing his Fist Technique and Blade Technique as if no one else was around.

Yang Yu was not injured in the entire battle.

But Yang Yu, being fragile, would either emerge unscathed or be knocked down in a single blow!

Do not underestimate the attack power of Senior Lord Level- level Green-Armored Giant Dragon.

Just look at the canyon, which has been widened by almost two rings, and the surrounding area devoid of any intact boulders or vegetation, and you'll know how terrifying its destructive power is!

Let's review the battle we just fought.

It can be said that every time Yang Yu dodged, he was jumping back and forth between life and death!

But it was precisely this thrilling battle that enabled Yang Yu to take a giant leap forward in his understanding of the Thunder Intent!

As Yang Yu swung his fist, wisps of visible Thunder Intent appeared, a scene caused by the outward projection of Spiritual Force containing intense Thunder Intent.

These wisps of Electric Glow appeared and disappeared with every move Yang Yu.

Perhaps a long time has passed.

Perhaps it was just the time it took to perform one set of Fist Technique.

Yang Yu has finally integrated Xingyi Five Elements Fist into a single Fist Technique!

"Thunder Fist Technique!"

One punch, Lei Sheng roared!

There seemed to be streaks of Thunder appearing, and lightning also seemed to be hidden within them.

Gui Yi his Fist Technique, Yang Yu's punches became even faster!

Every punch was like Thunderbolt Profundity Leidian!

It appears suddenly, and then disappears just as suddenly.

In this great battle, Yang Yu's Fist Technique underwent a transformation!

Yang Yu's Movement Technique also underwent a transformation.

The instant the Thunder Fist Technique succeeded.

Yang Yu's perception of the Thunder Intent became clearer.

If the understanding of Thunder Intent I had grasped before was merely like looking at a beautiful woman through a gauze window...

Now it's time to stand in front of the beautiful woman and look at her up close.

Everything was so clear, so within reach!

A sudden thought crossed my mind.

The Soaring Dragon Footwork unfolds.

At this moment, Yang Yu became completely one with heaven and earth.

His figure flashed by at lightning speed, accompanied by bursts of Thunder roars, as if Yang Yu had transformed into a bolt of lightning!

Lightning that is completely integrated into the universe!

As High-Speed Movement, strange fluctuations emanated from Yang Yu's body.

If a true powerhouse were here, they would surely recognize this as the prototype of the 'Lightning Domain'!

Or perhaps 'Thunder Domain' would be a more fitting description!

However, Yang Yu's physical abilities are currently only at the Junior War God, and his Spiritual Force is only at the Senior War God, not even reaching the War God Limit.

Not to mention breaking through to the Planetary Level and creating Mental Force 'planet' within the Consciousness Sea.

The reason why I can release a trace of the Thunder Domain now is because of the released Spiritual Force.

If one is merely at the Martial Artist level, their Genetic Origin Energy cannot be released, and even if they reach that level, they cannot activate the rudimentary form of this domain.

If Yang Yu were to break through to the Planetary Level in either the Martial Artist or the Spirit Reader, he would immediately reach the first level of the 'Thunder Domain'!

After all, the essence of a domain is that an individual's Mental Force, will, Origin Force, and body naturally reach an incomparably beautiful state of harmony, and the forces even merge, with the fused energy exerting a control effect on the surrounding space!

Now, Yang Yu's Mental Force and will have merged together under the complete control of the Thunder Intent, and through the outward projection of his Spiritual Force, he has influenced the outside world, thus forming the prototype of this domain.

However, the Genetic Origin Energy within Yang Yu's body and the Mental Force within his Consciousness Sea are still far too weak compared to the entire world.

It can only have a very slight effect on the surrounding environment, specifically manifested as extremely fast punches that carry the force of Thunder, as do its sword strikes, and its Movement Technique are also greatly enhanced.

It doesn't actually have a significant impact on the surrounding environment and cannot form a true territory.

If one reaches the Planetary Level, the Origin Force formed from the Genetic Origin Energy within the body can be projected outwards, and the Spiritual Force can undergo a fundamental transformation. At that time, the fused energy can have an extremely significant effect on heaven and earth, specifically manifesting as a true 'domain'!

The oppression and restraint of the enemy will reach its extreme.

It can be said that Planetary Level being possesses a domain, then they are invincible within the same level and rank!

Even though he can't unleash his true domain right now, Yang Yu's strength has increased more than tenfold!

If Yang Yu were to fight the Green-Armored Giant Dragon now...

Then a throwing knife containing a rudimentary Thunder Domain could easily bypass the Green-Armored Giant Dragon's defenses and kill it!

After a simple test, it was found that as long as the throwing knives are enveloped in Thunder Domain, their attack speed can now be increased even more dramatically!

It could easily reach a terrifying twenty times the Speed of Sound!

This is the huge boost to strength that comes with advancing in one's cultivation level.

The Fist Technique, Blade Technique, and Movement Technique, which contained a trace of the Thunder Domain, allowed Yang Yu to undergo a tremendous transformation in both speed and attack.

At the same time, Yang Yu could also feel that when he controlled that trace of the Thunder Domain, his spirit and will were sublimated.

A true sublimation!

With a thought, ten throwing knives floated into the air.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Six of the ten throwing knives were now radiating dazzling lightning, their agility and attack speed fundamentally different from the other four.

"Simultaneously control six throwing knives!"

The gains from this battle far exceeded Yang Yu's expectations. The amplitude of his throwing knife control has increased from simultaneously controlling four throwing knives to maintain maximum power to now controlling six.

Moreover, all six throwing knives can reach speeds of up to twenty times the Speed of Sound!

Even though Yang Yu's Spiritual Force didn't improve, the increase in the speed of his throwing knives alone boosted Yang Yu strength several times over, not even counting the further development and utilization of the Thunder Domain.

Just as Yang Yu was immersed in his rapidly increasing strength, the roar of fighter jets interrupted Yang Yu.

"Hey, Little Yang, you're amazing!" Jia Yi rushed over and excitedly hugged Yang Yu. "Four Lord-level Monster! You actually killed them all just like that, it's unbelievable!"

"Haha, Brother Jia, you flatter me. It was also thanks to a bit of luck that I managed to kill them all." Yang Yu, who was interrupted from his meditation, was not impatient at all and said with a smile.

Yang Yu has now completely mastered that rudimentary form of the domain, so being interrupted has no effect.

It really was luck. If the Great Strength Demon Ape hadn't gotten into a fierce fight with the Giant Black-Armored Scorpion and the Fire-Scaled Trident Pig, he wouldn't have been able to succeed so easily.

Life is sometimes so strange. The three Lord-level Monsters were arguing about who would go after Yang Yu, but in the end, they were all ambushed and killed by Yang Yu.

"This is truly gratifying!" Zhang Tieshan walked over at this moment. "Now that these four major threats have been eliminated, Jiangnan Base City is much safer."

"Indeed, this puts a lot less pressure on us," Jia Yi remarked. Having witnessed the terrifying power of Lord-level Monster, he had been under immense pressure.

"Alright, let's chat more when we get back. Let's hurry up and take these four Monsters corpses back; they're all good stuff," Yang Yu said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes! Our weapons and equipment can be upgraded again." Jia Yi excitedly directed the fighter jet to lower the iron chains and then hang the Monsters on them.

Before long, the four Monsters were carried back to the Jiangnan Base City Arms Factory by fighter jets.

Chief Wang Ying'an was already waiting in the Arms Factory. He looked at the smallest Fire-Scaled Trident Pig, which was more than ten meters long and two or three stories high, and the largest Green-Armored Giant Dragon, which was more than a hundred meters long. It took four large fighter jets to barely drag it back. For a moment, he was a little dazed.

However, Wang Ying'an was a high-ranking Military officer who had weathered many storms over the years, and he quickly adjusted his mindset. "Little Yang, we really owe you a lot this time. You saved our Jiangnan Base City from the threat of the Monsters lord. On behalf of the hundreds of millions of people in Jiangnan Base City, I thank you!"

Seeing Wang Ying'an bowing deeply in gratitude, Yang Yu quickly stepped forward to help him up, saying, "Chief flatter me, sir. This is simply what I should do as a member of Huaxia."

"Great!" Wang Ying'an praised happily, "Huaxia is truly fortunate to have Martial Artist like Little Yang."

Wang Ying'an was clearly very happy; his smile never faded. He chatted with Yang Yu for a while. Now, the Lord-level Monster that led the siege of Jiangnan Base City had all been killed, and the Monsters they controlled had scattered like birds and beasts. The Advanced Beast General Level Monsters were each leading their subordinates to wander in the wilderness, either occupying a mountain alone or finding a new Lord-level Monster to join them.

In such chaotic times, not only humans need powerful backers, but Monsters do too.

In short, apart from a few low-level Monsters still lingering outside Jiangnan City, all the powerful and intelligent Beast General Level Monsters have left.

Those insignificant Monsters can be dealt with easily with conventional weapons such as heavy machine guns and artillery; they won't cause any trouble.

The sea Monsters were too frightened to show their faces when they saw the Lord-level Monster corpse being dragged by the fighter jets. Among them, the East Sea Azure Dragon, which had been hiding, immediately slipped back into the sea.

And so, Jiangnan City entered its quietest day since the beginning of the Grand Nirvana.

Apart from the occasional sound of cannon fire, the peaceful and tranquil life was almost no different from before the Grand Nirvana.

This is why Wang Ying'an had so much time to linger in the Arms Factory, and why Yang Yu and Jia Yi didn't have to kill Monsters.

The group examined the four Lord-level Monster lying on the ground more closely, noticing that even in death Monsters exuded a terrifying aura.

Especially the Green-Armored Giant Dragon, whose dark golden vertical pupils, even though it was now devoid of any life, still exuded endless pressure.

Ordinary people dare not look him in the eye.

Jia Yi dared to meet her gaze for a moment, but soon his back would be soaked with cold sweat.

This demonstrates the formidable power of the Green-Armored Giant Dragon.

Anyone who witnessed this scene would be wondering how Yang Yu had managed to do it.

Looking at the colossal Monsters, as tall as City Wall, the people at the Arms Factory were momentarily at a loss.

"With so many precious materials, where should we even begin? It's a happy dilemma," the Arms Factory manager thought happily.

As Yang Yu just said, aside from the Green-Armored Giant Dragon's eyes and the Reverse Scale on its head that need to be given to him, and then using the Green-Armored Giant Dragon's Dragon Claw, Dragon Tooth, scales, and other materials to forge a complete set of equipment before giving it to him, the remaining materials, including those from the three Lord-level Monsters, should be given to the Military to forge equipment for other Martial Artist.

Faced with Yang Yu's generosity, Wang Ying'an did not let Yang Yu suffer any loss. On behalf of the entire Huaxia Military, he promised Yang Yu that his family would always receive unconditional protection from the Military, and that all of Yang Yu's weapons and equipment could be replaced free of charge!

Furthermore, he enjoys the benefits of Major General rank as a Freelance Martial Artist!

Yang Yu wasn't particularly moved by the Military's promises.

Since the Great Cataclysm, people have gradually come to understand that power, wealth, fame, and so on are all fleeting, and only one's own strength is truly reliable.

Yang Yu's future goal is the vast and boundless starry universe, so he naturally doesn't care about the Military's promises at the moment.

Inside the Arms Factory, Yang Yu used his throwing knives to remove the two enormous dark golden eyes of the Green-Armored Giant Dragon and the Reverse Scale on its forehead that shimmered with azure-gold light before returning home.

You can come back to pick up your equipment in a day.

The Arms Factory has always given Yang Yu's equipment the highest priority. With the experience of forging equipment using materials from the Giant Rock Bear Sovereign, the forging masters in the Arms Factory can now give a specific delivery time for the equipment after just one glance at the Green-Armored Giant Dragon.

The reason they can do it so quickly is because they will dedicate the entire Arms Factory to producing equipment 24/7!

Back home, Yang Yu spent a day with his grandfather and best friend Wang Lin, giving them some pointers on their cultivation and writing down some of his cultivation insights. After entrusting the Green-Armored Giant Dragon's eyes and Reverse Scale to his grandfather for safekeeping, Yang Yu returned to his private rooftop for quiet cultivation.

The high-level Monsters around Jiangnan Base City have mostly withdrawn, and the stubborn Beast Soldier Level Monsters have also been cleared out. It can be said that as long as monitoring and prevention are done well, Jiangnan Base City is now the safest place in all of Huaxia, and even the world!

Naturally, Yang Yu wouldn't need to stay on the defensive line all the time.

Those few low-level Monsters that wandered by were perfect for Jia Yi and the other Martial Artist to practice on.

As for the other Lord-level Monster, they didn't attack so quickly; they each had their own territory and range of activity.

It will take them time to discover that the Jiangnan Base City is empty and to gather a large number of Monsters.

That's enough time for Jiangnan Base City to react.

So Yang Yu is finally able to relax.

This was also the most relaxed moment Yang Yu had experienced in the past three months.

At this moment, Yang Yu did nothing, which was unusual for him. He simply stood quietly on the rooftop, dozens of stories high, bathed in the darkness before dawn and gazing into the distance.

His eyes were deep and unfathomable, his aura profound and distant.

At this moment, the morning sun is slowly rising.

After a long while.

Yang Yu began practicing Ping Ping unremarkable San Ti Shi.

After completing the San Ti Shi, you can Xingyi Five Elements Fist and Twelve Form Fist.

Finally, there was Yang Yu's Thunder punch after mastering all the techniques!

With the groundwork laid, Yang Yu's final punch was like Thunder, a Thunderbolt Profundity of lightning!

Yang Yu's fist crackled with electricity, each swing accompanied by bursts of lightning.

It may seem slow, but if you watch closely, you'll find that every punch Yang Yu is incredibly fast!

The so-called slowness is just an illusion caused by extreme speed.
