An unexpected incident (there are two Easter eggs at the end of the chapter-check them out together)
I'm so happy!
Su Mu looked at the slowly blooming petal and was incredibly excited.
At this moment, in his sea of consciousness, three lotus flowers of different colors were rotating at an extremely slow speed.
The Golden Lotus seemed to have little presence, probably because it hadn't bloomed and had been squeezed into a corner.
Dao Lotus now possesses the strength to fight, but she is still somewhat inferior. At present, it seems that Purple-Gold Lotus is still the most respected.
Why did Lin Hongbin leave?
After Xiao Wu rejected all those guys, she returned to the courtyard only to find that Lin Hongbin had already left, which puzzled her.
"Is it because he's been given enough time, and he still hasn't figured it out?"
No, he realized it, and then he left.
Su Mu raised her head, looked at Xiao Wu in front of her, and said softly.
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, and then she understood?
"Looks like she's a very perceptive person!" Xiao Wu exclaimed.
Su Mu nodded repeatedly in agreement. Yes, he had grasped the meaning simply by following him around; his comprehension was indeed exceptional.
Lin Hongbin wasn't here. If he were, he'd probably be weeping uncontrollably. Compared to the water ghosts and their ilk, he felt his comprehension was terrible; how could he possibly be considered exceptionally gifted?
Distracted by Lin Hongbin, Su Mu lost all interest in practicing his skills while staring at the bucket. Yu Guyue left, and then Lin Hongbin left too.
The eldest princess must be discussing some important matters in court, so it feels a bit empty now.
Su Mu shook his head, dismissing the thought from his mind.
What nonsense are you thinking? You should be focusing on cultivating immortality!
As darkness fell on Earth, a meteorite streaked across the sky and, with remarkable precision, crashed into the planet.
The immense friction combined with the extremely high speed caused the meteorite to emit a red glow, accompanied by a tremendous roar that carried far and wide.
Finally, at this moment, the asteroid warning system detected this visitor from outer space. In an instant, the entire base flashed a shrill alarm color, and red lights automatically turned on.
The base staff, who were about to rest and have something to eat, turned around in horror.
Then, on the screen, a location on Earth was automatically locked, and huge characters accompanied by red light began to flash continuously.
"Meteorite impact warning!!!"
Upon seeing the text displayed on the screen, several staff members nearby spilled their coffee all over the floor.
"Quickly! Calculate the impact location and issue a warning!"
In an instant, the entire base was thrown into chaos.
"What's going on? Such a large meteorite, and the warning system only detected it after it hit the ground?"
"Relatively speaking, this meteorite is still too small. Our detection system can only lock onto meteorites of a certain size and close enough. After all, there are so many meteorites that we can't monitor them all, so it went undetected. Now we still need to find a way to intercept it!"
"Intercept it? What can we use to intercept it? Once this thing enters the atmosphere, its speed immediately soars to 11 km/s! It's almost at the second cosmic velocity. What can we use to intercept it?"
The meteorite warning immediately caused panic among countless people. As the object's speed suddenly increased, some felt sweat pouring down their foreheads like a waterfall.
Especially after hearing that this thing's speed was approaching the second cosmic velocity, the group was even more frightened.
Their fastest weapon right now has an average speed of less than 7 km/s, right?
This thing is moving so fast now, what weapon could intercept it?
In Huaxia, a group of leaders had grim expressions. They had all learned of the news and were now nervously discussing countermeasures.
If this thing were to fall on their heads, we'd have to figure out how to minimize the damage.
Have you been able to contact Su Mu? Is there anything he can do?
They already knew about the meteorite's speed, and at this point, they couldn't help but think of Su Mu. His methods were unpredictable; surely he had some way to deal with it?
"We haven't been able to get in touch yet. We've sent people up the mountain immediately, but it seems too late."
Someone nearby remarked, "The meteorite is moving too fast. By the time our men get up the mountain, it'll probably have already fallen."
"Can the Dragon Vein help?"
The other person then asked a question. They were aware of the divine power of the Dragon Vein and were currently holding onto a sliver of hope.
Upon hearing this, the people standing nearby all shook their heads. They weren't entirely clear about the matter either. After all, only Su Mu could communicate with this thing, and they were completely clueless about the specific abilities and power of the Dragon Vein.
Good news!
Just as everyone was nervously discussing the matter, a secretary rushed in, "According to calculations, this meteorite shouldn't fall directly on our heads!"
"It landed in the sea several hundred nautical miles to the east, but it's very likely to affect our area."
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but then became somewhat tense again; the impact of falling into the sea was not insignificant! What if it had hit the nuclear power plant on the other side of the Korea?
Huaxia relaxed a little, but Korea and Japan were terrified when they received the news—what if they fell into the sea?
The moment the news arrived, the top officials of Korea and Japan were thrown into chaos.
Meanwhile, in some places, huge meteorites could already be seen falling, with enormous roars as they slid across the sky above Huaxia, leaving behind massive trails of flame.
Many people captured this scene on camera, and the sight of such a massive meteorite and the deafening roar were truly awe-inspiring.
Some people even took out their equipment to film the scene, while many others were filled with fear, wondering where the object would end up.
Huaxia reacted swiftly, informing the public on various platforms that the meteorite did not land within its borders, but that some areas were making disaster preparedness measures just in case.
After the news spread, it calmed the crowd down.
But the meteorite in the sky didn't care about any of that; it shone with an extremely bright light and quickly fell into the distance.
At this moment, Su Mu, who had been busy all day, had just returned and was preparing to get something to eat.
However, the moment he opened his eyes, the Spirit of the Dragon Vein twisted its body wildly at Su Mu, gesturing for Su Mu to go outside and watch.
Su Mu was somewhat puzzled by the Spirit of the Dragon Vein, but she still walked out of the villa. Then Su Mu's eyes widened instantly.
What is this?
The Spirit of the Dragon Vein began gesturing wildly on the side, Su Mu understood what it meant.
Once this thing fell, it became difficult to deal with because it released too much energy. Now it's actually easier to handle; we can just smash it.
However, I need Su Mu's help.
"Then smash it."
Su Mu frowned. Listening to the Spirit of the Dragon Vein's meaning, this thing probably wouldn't fall into Huaxia, but if it fell into the border area, the energy it would release would be too great, and it might not be able to completely stop it.
If this were to fall into a place like a nuclear power plant...
Su Mu hesitated for a moment, then immediately agreed.
Immediately, Su Mu strode to the spirit spring and began to draw out a vast amount of Spiritual Power, channeling it into the Spirit of the Dragon Vein.
A continuous roar echoed, and then the Spirit of the Dragon Vein began to gather energy, condensing into a crystal-clear arrow, which then shot suddenly into the sky.
The next moment, the once invincible meteorite was instantly pierced through, and its originally enormous light dimmed instantly.
There should be two more chapters later.
