Chapter 1002: SS-tier from the Dark Coalition

Even though the crack was opened up further, the energy was still pouring out constantly. Thus, Qin Feng and Tung Yang could still absorb them.

Three days later, due to both of them continuously absorbing, the runes were not spread too far out—which was why the other S-tiers did not notice them at all.

After all, not many would have the time and interest to investigate the ocean out of the blue.

After Qin Feng’s consciousness had also been showered by the energy for so long, the electric, metal and wood type runes had also been spread out to about two centimeters thick. Right now, Qin Feng should be at the S-tier for all the nine types of runes.

At the same time, Tung Yang’s power had also gotten stronger and stronger—inching ever closer to being an S-tier!

Then… finally…

After he absorbed another layer of runes, Tung Yang ascended.

Boom!

As his consciousness soared up to S-tier, Tung Yang frowned as a sweep of mini whirlpool began to swirl in between his brows. It was a blue starglobe!

This starglobe had a rather st.u.r.dy, powerful core—much like a Sacred Stone. It gave out a vibe that would make one mistake it for an ocean!

As he ascended to S-tier, Tung Yang was overwhelmed with power as his presence beamed up brightly to the sky! Everyone in the Huaxia Alliance and other members from other alliances in the nearby regions had taken notice of it.

“Someone has ascended to S-tier!”

“I wonder who that is?”

“This presence… It’s coming from the eastern sea. Perhaps it’s from the Huaxia Alliance. Or from the j.a.panese Alliance.”

“Who’s ascending right now? Is it from the Human Alliance? Perhaps we should go there. If we could kill this schmuck, we could earn a great deal of money.”

Thus, with their agenda in place, people from all sides began to move.

At the same time, the runes in the ocean were also affected due to Tung Yang’s ascension. The dimensional cracks that were usually not activated were now connected to one another.

In an instant, the dimensional crack that they were at seemed to have its energy clawed out.

Suddenly, a hundred-meter wide dimensional crack appeared in the sky.

Countless runes soared out of the crack, beaming out glittering rainbows in the area. The energy that appeared in the area was so glaring and obvious that the S-tiers had all noticed it. As this was happening, several runes had fused in with the ocean waters, creating an image of wonder and destruction if one were to see this from afar.

Tung Yang did not expect this to happen. These runes did not give off the impression that they were dangerous.

It was then, a flow of fire runes fell down from the sky and were about to hit Tung Yang from above.

“Hydro Tide!”

Not able to evade the fire runes, Tung Yang had to unleash Hydro Tide to push them away. However, the fire runes were rus.h.i.+ng down from above endlessly like a running stream. Despite having ascended to S-tier, Tung Yang could not hold it.

Nonetheless, Tung Yang was completely surrounded by runes from all elements—all except for water runes. So, there was no escape for him.

Suddenly, a glare of silver light beamed up around Tung Yang. In the next instant, he was teleported away—he was now thousands of meters away, looking at the residue silver runes from afar.

A lady approached him—it was Bai Li.

“Ms Bai, thank you for the rescue,” Tung Yang thanked her gratefully.

“Don’t mention it.” Bai Li waved her hand as she focused her attention on the dimensional crack.

Tung Yang moved his eyes to the same spot and asked in surprise, “Where’s Qin Feng?”

The runes were quite powerful. If Qin Feng were still inside, he would be in great trouble.

“He’s still absorbing runes in there.” Bai Li said as she willed up her consciousness and began to absorb some spatial runes from the surrounding area.

“He can’t! There are just too many runes! If he can’t absorb them fast enough, he’d be hurt!”

“He’ll be fine.”

Then, Tung Yang recalled just how fast Qin Feng could absorb the runes. There was indeed nothing to worry about.

Meanwhile, in the sky, several whirlpools were swirling in between Qin Feng’s brows as countless runes were sucked into his core.

This was what Qin Feng needed.

Despite the vast amount of runes soaring up in the area, the core’s expansion was rather slow.

Still, when compared to how it was a few days ago, it was indeed beginning to speed up.

Regardless, as his core swelled up, he would need more and more runes to expand it. Even though it only expanded by just one or two centimeters in appearance, it had in fact increased by dozens in its ma.s.s.

As Qin Feng absorbed the runes like crazy, the sky was now beginning to get clearer.

Due to Tung Yang’s ascension earlier and the appearance of the dimensional crack in the sky, many S-tiers had already noticed this from afar—especially the ability users. The bursting soar of runes was something they had been longing for a long time. There were not a lot of resources left on Earth after all; so, when there was something like this happening, there was no way they would give up on absorbing them too.

However, it was quite unrealistic for them to zoom to the scene right away. Due to the vast amount of runes swirling in the area, the whole ocean had begun to act rather weirdly.

There could be various kinds of calamity awaiting them if they travelled this way hastily—blizzards, hurricanes, tsunamis, thunder sears, meteorites, or even fire ball showers!

Due to that, it took three hours for the fastest person amongst the S-tiers to reach the scene. However, the ability users noticed that the soaring runes in the sky had all disappeared—they had all been absorbed by Qin Feng!

Meanwhile, Qin Feng’s cores were now about two-centimeter wide. Although they were not as thick as his ice core—which was ten centimeters in width, they were already becoming elite cores.

Nonetheless, even though the runes were all gone, the dimensional crack was still there, pouring out rune ribbons constantly. The first ability user that arrived stared at this in awe.

“Has the Runic Realm connected with ours? This is such a golden opportunity!”

The ability user yelled out excitedly.

Meanwhile, Tung Yang and Jiao Linhan watched on quietly and cautiously.

This newly arrived ability user was an SS-tier. And they knew all the eleven SS-tiers in the Human Alliance. This man was not one of them.

In fact, this man was a member of the Dark Coalition—Endo, the Violent Butcher. This Dark Coalition’s SS-tier would probably think of eliminating members of the Human Alliance when he sees them.

Endo, on the other hand, locked his eyes on Qin Feng who was absorbing the runes in the sky.
