An agreement reached, "land mines" laid?

Smoke and dust shot skyward, rising hundreds of feet into the air.

The whole of Upper Valley jolted amid the thunderous blast.

Qin Yun had modified this type of bomb.

He had combined uranium crystal with lanthanum-based elements and a small amount of plutonium.

The substances remained stable together under normal conditions.

But once the lanthanum core met air and ignited, it burned hot enough to set off everything else.

Its power far exceeded an ordinary uranium crystal detonation.

Only after a long while did the smoke and dust clear.

A charred crater roughly ten feet deep had appeared in the center of the valley, its rim scorched into glass.

For more than a hundred feet around the crater, every tree and plant had been flattened, their broken ends scorched yellow.

The Titan Giant Ape lay three hundred feet away.

He had smashed through seven or eight large trees, leaving half his body buried in broken branches and leaves, one leg draped over a stump snapped in two.

More than half his black fur had been singed away, wisps of smoke rising from scattered patches. Fine wounds crisscrossed his chest, shoulders, and arms, beads of blood rolling down his fur.

His mouth hung open, and his panting breaths carried a burnt smell.

Xiao Wu ran over and reached out to touch his wounds.

"Er Ming, how are you feeling?"

The Sky Azure Bull Python quickly came to the Titan Giant Ape's side as well.

No one knew his brother's physical toughness better than he did.

Even in head-on clashes with Titled Douluos, Er Ming had never suffered like this.

Yet something without the slightest trace of soul power had injured him this badly.

Er Ming lay on the ground, his chest burning with pain, a single thought filling his mind.
