Chapter 576: Chapter 575 "Cannon Shooting Down Planes
In the ranks of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, chaos had erupted. As the saying goes, "Without a leader, dragons will be in disarray," and this was particularly true for a group like the Heavenly Gang War Generals. Each member of the Heavenly Gang War Generals was extremely powerful. The sacrifice of Captain Man Tian had dealt a severe blow and shock to them, leaving everyone indignant and unaccepting. In their hearts, many only recognized Man Tian as their overall leader, and no one else would do.
Originally, Qing Hu and Fei Bao were the best candidates, but Fei Bao was impulsive and bloodthirsty, incessantly clamoring to pursue and kill the Demon Wolf to avenge Man Tian. As for Qing Hu? In his youthful arrogance, he had offended many brothers in the Heavenly Gang War Generals, and so he was unable to command their respect. To find someone who could make most of the Heavenly Gang War Generals willingly accept and endorse a new overall leader was very difficult. Even the number one leader could not force it; many considerations had to be taken into account. Rather than hastily appointing someone as the new leader of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, it was better to temporarily set the issue aside. No matter how much they quarreled, this group of Heavenly Gang War Generals wouldnât get far. After all, most of them had a military background and were mostly obedient to orders; they wouldnât do anything harmful.
"I know you donât want to be the overall leader of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, but can you just watch as the team falls into disarray? It is a team that has been built with the hard work of several generations, a team that has shocked the world. When Captain Man Tian was sacrificing himself, he entrusted the Heavenly Gang Ring to you because he trusted and believed in you, Tianchen. If you were to become the overall leader of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, I would be the first to support you. If anyone dares to utter a word of dissent, I, Hei Mian, will be the first to turn against them!" Hei Mian looked at Ye Tianchen earnestly as he spoke.
Ye Tianchen was stunned for a moment, feeling the brotherhood from Hei Mian and the high regard he had for him. After interacting with Hei Mian for so long, the two had become friends unwittingly through fighting and making up. Yet, the thought of becoming the leader of the overall Heavenly Gang War Generals really held no interest for him. It would be a binding commitment for Ye Tianchen.
"Donât worry, I also promised Captain Man Tian that if there is a crisis in the ranks of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, I wonât stand by and do nothing. Letâs not talk about this anymore!" Ye Tianchen said as he patted Hei Mianâs shoulder.
Hei Mian glanced at Ye Tianchen, feeling that Ye Tianchen had made up his mind, and that further persuasion would be pointless. Ye Tianchen possessed the dual personalities of a hoodlum and the Death God; no wonder even the number one leader and Yang Yi, the Vice Chairman of the Military Commission, could do nothing about him. In fact, Hei Mian had come personally, along with another Heavenly Gang War General who piloted planes, following the number one leaderâs instruction. Hei Mian and Ye Tianchen were friends and knew each other very well. Perhaps through Hei Mianâs persuasion, Ye Tianchen might take up the role of the overall leader of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, but to his surprise, Ye Tianchen was resolute, and Hei Mian was unable to persuade him.
Afterward, Hei Mian and Ye Tianchen stopped talking, with the other seven, including Lin Duan, closing their eyes to rest and gather their strength for the upcoming battle. Ye Tianchen also closed his eyes and slowly immersed his mind into his body. Using his Divine Sense, he could achieve the effect of Inner Vision. He discovered that within his Dantian, there existed two distinct energies: one was the Emperor-level superpower he possessed as a Superpower User, and the other felt very much like the Inner Strength from Ancient Martial Arts. These were two different forms of energy, coexisting within Ye Tianchenâs body, situated on two sides of his Dantian without colliding or interfering with each other. However, Ye Tianchen felt a sense of crisis. He knew that one day these two forces would clash, and all he could do was try to amalgamate them. In the previous few days, he had tried to use the Origin essence energy of his being, which is the most powerful force within a person, to forcibly merge these two energies. To his alarm, he nearly exploded and spit blood, unable to succeed, not even to come into contact. With these two powers residing in his body, it was like a time bomb, bound to collide someday, and when they do, Ye Tianchen could very likely end up dead from self-explosion. This was a significant issue he needed to face and resolve.
There was a time when Ye Tianchen had wanted to combine the superpower energy with the Inner Strength of Ancient Martial Arts so that he might embark on a unique path of cultivation, far stronger than ordinary experts. Now he could say he had taken the first step; his body already contained the superpower energy and the Ancient Martial Inner Strength. The critical issue was how to merge them, which had become Ye Tianchenâs dilemma. He had not expected it to be so tough, to end up as a ticking time bomb within himself. It seemed that embarking on a distinctive path of cultivation was not only full of challenges but also fraught with life-threatening risks.
Since he could temporarily not touch these two different powers, Ye Tianchen stopped concerning himself with them. Instead, the information regarding the Bone Transformation Skill imparted to him by Zhang Yide when he left surfaced in his mind. Although Ye Tianchen had studied it once before, this time he thought it might be of significant use. The Bone Transformation Skill was a Divine Art passed down from ancient times, unlike the ordinary Disguise Skill. Most experts were proficient in simple Disguise Skills, but these could easily be seen through by other experts. No matter how skilled oneâs disguise was, their aura and the energy fluctuations emitted from their body could be locked onto by experts. Any disguise would be futile, and besides, a Disguise Skill only changes facial features without altering oneâs figure. Even ordinary people could notice something off by paying close attention to the eyes, which are the windows to the soul; ordinary Disguise Skills cannot change a personâs gaze.
As Ye Tianchen recalled the information about the Bone Transformation Skill once again, he couldnât help but be taken aback by its potency. The Bone Transformation Skill was no ordinary disguise but involved changing oneâs appearance from the inside out, using the bodyâs inner forceâincluding the bones, stature, and energy aura. Itâs not much different from the Transformation Skill in the fantasy world. It seemed that the Bone Transformation Skill was likely another remnant from Earthâs Ancient Cultivation Era, or it wouldnât be so powerful.
"The Bone Transformation Skill, guiding the bodyâs force to reshape bones, blood vessels, muscles, and finally, the outer skin, is incredibly powerful. Such a transformation could render even oneself unrecognizableâindeed, itâs an excellent technique," Ye Tianchen couldnât help but think to himself.
Ye Tianchen suddenly felt a massive vibration coming from the airplane; he opened his eyes and saw the entire aircraft tumbling and swerving left and right, dodging missiles. It seemed someone was trying to shoot down their helicopter.
"Whatâs going on?" Ye Tianchen asked.
"Itâs those M-country bandits trying to down our plane with rockets from below," Hei Mian said bitterly through clenched teeth.
"Didnât we already have a pass? And we even notified New York in M-country. Why would they suddenly attack?" Ye Tianchen asked, puzzled.
"Weâve contacted them via radio just now, and these shameless bastards said that due to the special circumstances, our pass is invalid. Theyâre demanding we land immediately and submit to their custody and interrogation," Hei Mian said, grinding his teeth in anger.
"Itâs clear this is a trick by M-country. Weâre now over New Yorkâs airspace; they waited until now to strike. When in a foreign land, one has no choice but to be submissiveâtheyâre trying to force us to accept their terms..." Wang Jie cursed furiously.
Ye Tianchen walked to the plane window and looked down. Although the distance was great, and it was nighttime below, his eyes could utilize the "Golden Eyes," a Great Killing Skill, allowing him to see clearly in the dark. He concentrated his superpower on his eyes and looked below. He saw two armored tanks, each mounted with missiles, relentlessly firing at their helicopter. At that moment, there were also thunderous sounds echoing from all around in the sky.
Using his Superpower Perception, Ye Tianchen sensed that three military fighter jets were already on the attack. It appeared that M-country was being despicably treacherous. They had earlier agreed to let them through and were now attacking outright; they intended to annihilate them, breaking faith and betraying trust.
"Damn it, itâs too despicable. Our helicopter isnât combat-readyâit doesnât even have basic machine guns installed. We canât return fire at all. Now weâre in mid-air, and if we get hit by one rocket, weâre certainly dead!" Hei Mian said furiously, punching the plane.
"Itâs not just about getting hit by a rocketâeven gun bullets would not take long to bring this plane down. Looks like we need to figure out a way to land quickly," Bao Tianglong suggested after some thought.
"Land? Easier said than done. There are missiles constantly being fired at us from below. Weâre undoubtedly locked in their target range and canât escape!" Wang Jie said irritably.
"Alright, you all stay in the plane, assist our pilot here, and focus on evading the missiles being shot at us from below. Iâll take care of the three approaching military fighter jets. Remember, donât think about running away. Just hover in this area and dodge the missiles from below, thatâs all!" Ye Tianchen finished speaking and then abruptly pulled open the door of the cabin!
