Chapter 267 World panic and gathering of "Gods" (2)
How would you feel if suddenly, in the middle of the night and when the day had just begun, you suddenly began to see two huge masses of insane size in the middle of the ocean about to impact each other? What if you felt that your own life was in danger?
That was precisely what millions and millions of people around the world were feeling as they looked to the south of the planet.
In addition to the black-as-night typhoon with weak lightning, a gigantic lightning spear descended from the skies as punishment from the god of lightning. But that was not all.
BOOM!
BOOM!
Waves and waves over a thousand meters high rose furiously over the seas! But the most amazing thing of all was that just a moment after people began to fear for their lives and private property, the terrifying waves moving towards the shoreline disappeared! As if by the decree of the god of the seas Poseidon, terrifying waves with a destructive power too great for any normal person, were obliterated without any sign!
All these strange signs made people think even more that gods and demons had descended to this world and that the day of judgment had finally arrived!

-Antarctica.
Xie Feng gazed in wonder at the beautiful sight in front of his eyes. If he had to talk about size, he felt like an ant looking at a building in front of such a huge windstorm. However, all Xie Feng felt as he watched his attack about to impact against the 'Spear of Indra' summoned by Nangong Wentian's lightning was pure joy.
This attack contained everything he could currently unleash! In fact, the attack that Xie Feng had just unleashed was even more powerful than it normally would have been because it was currently not only wind; there was also a great deal of electric power in the windstorm!
BOOOM!!!
BOOOOOM!!!
The ice glaciers collapsed in a matter of a split second, many of the wild animals living in Antarctica did not even feel pain before their bodies exploded into a blood mist and the beautiful pure white snow melted spontaneously.
Only a few seconds after both attacks were released from their restraints and were about to collide with each other, the sea level rose several folds due to the sudden fall of the melting glaciers in plain sight.

-United States, The Pentagon.
It was well known that The Pentagon was the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense. The building was shaped like a pentagon and more than thirty thousand people (known to the public) worked in it to date. The building had 12 floors, 5 of which included five corridors, the rest were unknown and restricted to all but a minority of people.
On the top floor of the Pentagon, a group of people was staring intently at the energy screen in front of them.
Due to the strange event that was shaking Antarctica, several scientists as well as skill users were hastily gathered by the higher-ups to inspect the situation.
"Still can't get the image?" Said a stern looking man with a large bald spot on top of his head.
"We need Evans to get a little closer." Said a skill user. His eyes were glowing and seemed to be transmitting something to the energy screen that everyone was paying attention to.
"Evans is a special skill user with the ability to move at the speed of sound. His physical body is strong enough to withstand the pressure caused by entering at a speed greater than what is considered normal.... He should be able to see what is happening." Said a man with glasses while typing something on his tablet but with his eyes fixed on the screen.
Seconds passed and, just as they were beginning to see clearly thanks to the skill user sent, light and dark finally met.
At first, everything was silent, nothing strange happened.
The people inside the room looked at each other in confusion until they heard the skill user who was transmitting amplified and enhanced images by his skill of what Evans was recording live shouting.
"What happened!?"
"Simon!"
The place went chaotic as they saw the approximately 34 years old man rolling on the ground, groaning in pain.... His eyes were bleeding... Rather, the place where his eyes should be were bleeding.... There was no longer anything inside the socals.
Simon's eyes had popped out.
"The energy of the attack was probably too much." The glasses-wearing scientist said casually as he looked at the energy screen, now completely obscured. "Simon couldn't withstand the shock wave and that's why his eyes suffered the consequences? As for Evans, he should have died."
The words of the glasses-wearing scientist froze everyone in the place. But before anyone could say anything else...
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RUMBLE....
RUMBLE....
A terrifying explosion that had never been heard by any human being alive shook the whole Pentagon... No. Not just the Pentagon.
RUMBLE....
A great part of the whole Planet Earth quaked furiously!
People who were awake fell to the ground in horror and those who were asleep or even ignorant of what was happening were awakened and forced to learn the reality by force.
The screams of terror and the crying of people had suddenly become a worldwide trend.
Those who were near the coast watched in horror as a simply huge wave, so huge that it did not lose against the giant typhoon or the lightning spear, rose into the air and traveled at extreme speeds approaching the coast of Asia, Europe, America, and all the countries that lived on islands like Japan!
BOOM!
Fortunately, it seemed that the god of the seas was still protecting them all because although it was not as easy as in the previous cases, the terrifying waves collapsed after exploding into countless drops of water.
BANG!!!!!!!
An explosion with Antarctica as the center suddenly erupted once again and a shock wave carrying a terrifying amount of destructive power as the wind momentum caused it to move towards the coast, once again people's lives were in danger.
* * *
-Antarctica... Or what was before Antarctica.
An extension of several thousand kilometers of the ice continent had completely disappeared while the mountains of ice and snow near to the collision had collapsed. Even those mountainous elevations far away suffered and their sizes decreased drastically.
Xie Feng looked terrified at the "ground" under his feet and his surroundings.
There was no solid ground there. No matter where Xie Feng looked, all signs of ice and snow had completely disappeared! Water, water, and more water! There was nothing but water and no sign of any life nearby!
Never in his wildest dreams would Xie Feng have ever imagined that the result of the impact between his attack and Nangong Jun's attack would not destroy a city-sized area... The destruction in Xie Feng's eyes was at the level of being able to flatten a small to medium sized country to the ground!
RUMBLE....
Feeling the ocean increasing exponentially and vibrating furiously, Xie Feng suddenly seemed to think of something and turned pale as he looked towards the coast.
"Stop!" He roared at the top of his lungs! His currently golden eyes as proof of his use of skills shone brightly and the shockwave that was dragging destructive wind towards the coastline stopped just before the lives of thousands and hundreds of thousands of people ended right there!
"Eh?" After the waters calmed down and everything went silent, Xie Feng suddenly became startled.
"Don't tell me..." looking at his surroundings, his face turned pale again.... He couldn't see Nangong Jun anywhere!
That old man didn't get blasted to pieces, did he? Xie Feng began to sweat as he imagined the Nangong Family ancestor's body exploding into blood mist after the two attacks collided.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
...
Xie Feng looked in the north direction and there he saw several flashes of light approaching in his direction. In less than a second, Xie Feng's expression relaxed when he saw who they were.
"Big brother Xie Feng!"
"Xie Feng!"
Two beautiful voices turned into a nightingale-like song for Xie Feng after hearing so many thunderous explosions.
Of course, these people were Xie Yao and the rest.
Xie Feng was about to smile, but his expression turned strange when he looked at the ancestor of the Yao Family.... Wasn't that person standing on Yao Chu's shoulder the ancestor of the Nangong Family, Nangong Jun!!!?
"This... What is this all about?" Xie Feng asked unconsciously as the others caught up with him.
Yao Chu also had a strange expression as he looked at Xie Feng.... No, it wasn't just him. All the adults were looking at him strangely.
"*Cough...* Well..." Gu Pojun coughed when he saw that no one said anything and said carefully, "Ancestor Nangong used all his power in the previous attack, so when your attack and his collided, he lost consciousness due to the mental charge."
"This..." Xie Feng didn't know what to say, he was at a loss for words.... What was the point of unleashing such a strong attack if you were going to lose consciousness immediately after!? Wasn't that the same as committing suicide!? Xie Feng wanted to shout out his thoughts but kept them to himself.
"On the other hand..." Yao Chu looked at Xie Feng from head to toe, clearly Xie Feng had no apparent problems since there was even a thin layer of wind under his feet acting as a support. Yao Chu said with a strange tone, "How you still standing?"
