Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely-Chapter 1048 - 814: Downfall of the Background Board

The star system where Sandaar resides has three stars, making the environment inherently harsh.

But Sandaar’s specific position and orbital path make it resemble the Chosen Son, becoming the only habitable planet in the system.

Moreover, the three stars can also be considered Sandaar’s natural shield and energy source.

Apart from Sandaar, this star system contains several other planets, but their environments are indescribably inhospitable.

A few planets can occasionally fall into a state of habitability, but as their orbits shift, they periodically enter zones of violent weather.

Sandaar II is one such planet.

Although its sunlight exposure appears relatively normal for half the year, the other half involves entering areas of double or even triple solar irradiation.

The evaporation of seawater on the planet creates an extremely dense atmosphere, resulting in compounded greenhouse effects.

During the ’rainy season,’ there are fascinating spectacles of torrential downpours, as though seawater is pouring down from the sky.

A ’tourist attraction’ near Sandaar...

Boom~

Terrifying thunderstorms sweep across the entire planet. Sandaar II, back in its rainy-season orbit, is shrouded in thunderbolts overhead.

With temperatures soaring to seventy or eighty degrees, the scalding rain falls from the sky like an ocean spilling forth.

The layers and interwoven patterns make it impossible to discern whether this is rainfall or an ocean suspended midair.

The cascading waves seem to divide the sky into multiple layers.

And there, Tao Yu stands within this apocalyptic atmosphere, eyes closed, feeling the aura of ’disaster.’

"What an intriguing planet..."

The surging ’rainwater’ swirls like a flood dragon, driven wild by the tumultuous airflow.

Yet, all impacts miraculously avoid Tao Yu as they approach, as though by some tacit agreement.

Although it appears uncanny, the diverted streams seem entirely ’natural,’ their movements neither abrupt nor contrived, as if it were the way things should be.

In this dark and chaotic environment, a spacecraft breaks through the ’water layers’ of the sky, slowly descending under the buffeting surge.

The sky is thickly overcast and pitch-black, illuminated only by thunderbolts, making the ship’s lights conspicuously clear, fully exposing its massive size and imposing an unseen pressure.

Thump-thump~

Tao Yu senses concentrated electromagnetic waves aimed at him, likely weapon targeting. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Such rudeness."

With a casual wave of his hand, the endless torrents in the sky suddenly transform.

Accompanied by rolling thunder, they manifest as an immense, ferocious water dragon stretching ten thousand feet long!

Even the sizable ship appears trapped in its coils under this colossal dragon’s immense presence.

The dragon’s scaly surface brushes against the ship’s hull, producing bursts of electric flashes.

Inside the spacecraft, the sound of heavy scraping can also be heard.

In the control room, Thanos rises to his feet, gripping the Soul Gem tightly, his face full of gravity.

"Mage."

Thanos has encountered beings capable of controlling natural forces before.

Among his underlings, Blackout counted as a formidable spellcaster.

But compared to this ten-thousand-foot Divine Dragon conjured by channeling the surrounding natural power, those previous spellcasters seem utterly weak!

"Is this your trump card, Mage!"

Thanos’s voice reverberates out of the spacecraft.

Not even the furious weather and cacophony of thunder can mask his commanding tone.

His voice carries a sense of compelling authority, causing the surrounding ’stormy winds and rain’ to momentarily pause.

The massive dragon undulates momentarily as well.

"Perhaps."

Tao Yu’s voice sounds faintly casual, yet it resonates clearly, as if a thought-communication, reaching everyone aboard the ship effortlessly.

"Then if that’s all you have, unless you hand over the Power Stone today, you’re destined to perish here!"

As Thanos’s voice echoes, he radiates a dim brilliance from head to toe. Clad in armor and wielding a colossal Double-edged Blade, he directly ’passes through’ the spacecraft’s hull and floats outward.

Embedded in the center of his massive weapon is a gemstone emanating the same dim glow.

This gem seems to have ’dyed’ Thanos as well, turning him into this ethereal state.

Though resembling a Spiritual Body, he remains capable of interacting with the Current World!

Already endowed with immense spirit and unparalleled strength, Thanos’s fusion of soul and body grants him an almost weightless physicality.

Emerging from the spacecraft, he hovers before Tao Yu.

"Neither your vaunted Magic nor your prized Power Stone can harm me now. So, how will you respond?"

Thanos doesn’t strike immediately. He clutches the massive blade and floats in circles around Tao Yu, his gaze locked on him, seemingly seeking a weakness.

"Oh, you do have some skill. I didn’t expect you’d find such refined use for the Soul Gem."

Tao Yu raises an eyebrow, speaking mildly.

Thanos’s current state is highly resistant to physical attacks, including the Power Stone and the dragon coiling around the ship. Both seem countered by his form.

Tao Yu’s face reveals a hint of admiration.

"Young man, I may not fully understand your motive for collecting the Infinite Gems, and I am still somewhat angered by your earlier attempts to use me for obtaining the Soul Gem first. However, since you’ve brought me information on the Soul Gem and now willingly delivered the Power Stone, I can choose to spare your life..."
