Beam Clash, Eightfold Kaio-ken!

Solomon, who had nearly sunk New York with a single strike, now directed that destructive white radiance toward the ocean with all his strength.

Whether it was Thanos or Hela, who had caught up with her two disappointing younger brothers, they both understood what this meant.

It meant that, at this very moment, the one in the sky radiating destructive energy considered the one on the sea even more dangerous!

With one hand, Wanda used Chaos Magic to forcibly keep the collapsing ground outside the district where she stood, while her other hand remained raised before the powerful Captain Marvel.

Though Wanda was in pain and filled with hatred, she still retained the bare minimum of rationality. A disaster that would directly destroy New York and kill millions lay beyond the scope of her fury.

If Bai Cangshu had been here, he would probably have mocked her for not being pure enough and tried to provoke her further.

But at this moment, not a single reincarnator dared interfere in this battle.

Jifeng clutched the severely wounded Xinfeng as the two repeatedly transformed into storms and fled through the air. Under their magic, the city and its districts were continuously sliced apart.

"We still can’t fly upward. We have to leave the Saint George Domain first."

Even under such circumstances, Xinfeng and Jifeng showed little emotion on their faces, merely exchanging information.

Clearly, something had probably gone wrong with Solomon at this point, but that was good news for them.

Although Solomon had told them that he had found a more suitable stairway and could spare the other members’ lives, knowing the greedy nature of reincarnators all too well, neither of them could fully trust Solomon.

Taking advantage of Solomon’s condition to escape first was the right course.

New York would most likely be destroyed in the battle between these monsters…

Boom!

Destructive radiance swept down from the sky toward the Atlantic Ocean. The white mist formed by evaporating seawater made the entire ocean seem as though it were boiling. A colossal wave was shoved up and rolled toward the heart of the sea.

And that silver line upon the ocean finally reached the constantly crumbling coastline. A burly man in a pitch-black trench coat, its dark green lining dancing wildly in the gale, spread his arms as if embracing the violent sea wind rushing at him.

Faced with that destructive Dragon King’s Sigh, the man neither dodged nor evaded. He even wore a smile as he welcomed it with open arms.

In the sky, Solomon’s Automatic Record mode immediately reacted.

"Target detected as unattackable. Analyzing cause: contract restriction. Initiating countermeasures…"

An eerily shaped dagger appeared in Solomon’s hand the next moment.

"Activating Rule Breaker. Destroying contract. Destruction in progress…"

Below, the smile on Bai Cangshu’s face became brilliantly twisted. His Mantra covered an enormous range, and Black Face, his most loyal subordinate, constantly reported to him.

He knew exactly what had happened. At this moment, he almost wanted to applaud Millennium Worm and Satoru Gojo.

Bai Cangshu had thought that his contract with Solomon would only be dissolved after Solomon finished climbing the stairway, accomplished all his schemes in this world, and prepared to return.

He had never expected that Millennium Worm and Satoru Gojo, those two schemers, would force Solomon to reveal such a trump card.

A technique like Automatic Record could hardly be called powerful. It was merely a special response method that, when one possessed overwhelming power, could achieve complete domination.

It would always choose the most suitable technique for battle and would not be affected by most abilities that interfered with the mind.

But correspondingly, Solomon in Automatic Record mode lost the spiritual awareness that even Bai Cangshu found troublesome. The caution that allowed him to forcibly suppress his own judgment, even voluntarily surrendering benefits in order to choose the safest option, was completely gone.

Attention: Your temporary contract D3315 has been forcibly terminated.

The instant the prompt appeared on the panel, the destructive white light arrived.

Bai Cangshu’s smile became wildly unrestrained. Standing atop the surging waves, he raced forward as the seawater was battered by his force.

Terrifying heat struck him in an instant. Bai Cangshu immediately raised his left hand, and golden brilliance seemed to gather at his fingertips from the air in every direction.

In an instant, it condensed into a dazzling point of light.

Dodon Ray!

Boom!

The Blazing White radiance stopped less than a meter before Bai Cangshu. The terrifying temperature instantly vaporized the waves behind him, and thousands of meters of sea were completely shrouded in white mist.

Yet the heat continued. Dragon King’s Sigh was a sustained attack. Solomon thrust both hands forward.

The radiance, dozens of meters wide, became even more intense.

As the seawater beneath Bai Cangshu continuously evaporated, his feet also began to sink. Three Parts Return to Origin Force twisted through the ocean, forming an enormous shield, making it seem as though Bai Cangshu were standing on a giant sponge.

In an instant, Dragon King’s Sigh pressed him more than ten meters beneath the surface, and that force continued to grow stronger.

Steam, heat, waves, gale-force winds—the Reishi and elements in the surrounding air all began to riot.

Bai Cangshu’s long black hair whipped violently, yet the smile on his face did not fade. Instead, his mouth stretched wider, growing ever more cruel.

To be honest, though he was a Ki enhancer, due to his previous lack of ability levels, insufficient Ki intensity, and opponents who had been too weak…

He had never before experienced a "beam clash" with anyone.

Now, feeling the pressure against his fingertips, Bai Cangshu was exhilarated beyond measure.

Solomon in this state was far stronger than Mahakala had been!

By Bai Cangshu’s estimate, Solomon now probably possessed destructive power at the upper Fierce rank.

But…

Bai Cangshu suddenly straightened his legs. The force beneath his feet vanished, replaced by golden Ki wrapping around his body.

Beneath Bai Cangshu’s skin, it was as though a golden membrane of light had begun to emerge. Intense Ki erupted from his body and shot into the heavens in an instant.

Boom!

In the ocean, the seawater around Bai Cangshu was blasted apart, revealing a hollow hundreds of meters wide. He stood within it, his black hair seeming to turn golden because of the golden Ki entwined around it, creating a strangely disorienting sense of déjà vu.

Bai Cangshu raised his head, his eyelids lowered.

Activating Twofold Kaio-ken in his normal state no longer put any pressure on him. So now, fourfold!

Rumble!

The golden Ki shooting into the sky instantly transformed the point of light before Bai Cangshu’s fingertips into a massive sphere, shoving the destructive white radiance back dozens of meters.

Bai Cangshu was still dissatisfied.

Amid the creaking of his muscles, periosteum, and blood vessels, black patterns emerged across Bai Cangshu’s body.

Sixfold Kaio-ken!

Boom!

The hollow spanning hundreds of meters was instantly forced open to several thousand meters.

Before Bai Cangshu’s fingertips, golden Ki began to advance toward Solomon with unstoppable momentum.

That destructive force made Hela and Thanos turn their attention toward it.

"Not enough, not enough, still not enough!"

"Solomon, let’s push it to the peak!"

Eightfold Kaio-ken!
