"Our team discovered a significant depression underground believed to be for constructing subterranean areas. However, due to collapses, it will take a considerable amount of time to excavate."
"Residents living in the western suburbs have reported multiple times witnessing a very peculiar sight. In their descriptions, they saw a golden beam of light shooting straight into the sky from the west, lasting only about ten seconds."
Listening to the report and reviewing the documents, Fury nodded.
"Gather information on whether there has been significant traffic in and out of that area over the past month, and lock down the region."
"Yes, sir."
The agent turned and left, leaving Fury in contemplation.
"The power of an explosion equivalent to three thousand tons of TNT within ten seconds does not match the destruction observed in the area. Three thousand tons of TNT could create a crater over a hundred meters in diameter and more than twenty meters deep."
"The lethality could reach up to five hundred meters, and people a kilometer away could also be injured, while glass windows four to five kilometers away would shatter."
"The footage of the scene and the effects of the explosion do not align at all."
"Additionally, considering the ten-second phenomenon seen by residents of the western suburbs, it was likely caused by that golden beam of light. The initial site inspection may yield more clues."
Fury grew more interested in this so-called golden beam.
"What could cause such a spectacle and force?"
"Some kind of newly developed military weapon?"
"A weapon that fires from the ground to the sky? Some sort of anti-air weapon?"
It's all speculation for now. Fury can only wait for the report from the site inspection, but for some reason, a name suddenly flashed through his mind.
"It couldn't be him, could it?"
Thinking this, Fury reached out to pick up the phone nearby.

Meanwhile, Bi Xiao was leisurely driving a Chevrolet SUV, cruising slowly along the highway. The road was deserted at night, lit only by the headlights of the vehicle—a mere glow to the ordinary eye, but to him, day and night were no different.
Humming a tune while driving, he was in high spirits. The loot from the Blood God instance was substantial, letting him feast on thousands of vampires in one swoop, not to mention the Blood God himself.
One could say the essence of life from a single Blood God was about four times that of the thousands of vampires combined.
He had touched a certain limit.
Yes, a limit, an indescribable feeling.
The specific numbers were impossible to calculate since the magnitude of his magic power was off the charts. The greater his magic power, the larger the boost to his combat abilities.
Having fought the Blood God, he had a basic understanding of his own strength, yet he had not used his full capabilities.
It seemed intense, but he had only employed brute strength, not even pushing himself to MAX mode.
A slight increase in intensity, and the Blood God was dead.
Of course, the situation was normal, as magic was overwhelmingly effective against vampires, and his use of mind storms and bombs to seal the Blood God's blood magic played a significant role.
Now, having absorbed the essence of life from the Blood God, his strength had increased several fold.
At his level, this was not simply a linear enhancement but an exponential increase across all dimensions of his life form.
As for this limit, Bi Xiao had his theories.
It seemed to be that of the Celestial.
The Celestial was a step below the Sky Father, with a vast difference in power between them, and an even greater disparity below the Celestial.
Though the distinctions in these levels were somewhat blurred and not strictly hierarchical, they represented entirely different tiers of existence.
Compared to those below, the Celestial was already on another level of life.
A life form at a high enough level to reach Celestial status would need time to cross over, often spanning tens of thousands of years.
Bi Xiao suspected he might also be at this stage of the process.
Others might need extensive time to undergo this transformation, but he did not; he just needed to slay more powerful life forms and absorb enough life essence to break through this limit.
The required amount might be immense.
Indeed, he seemed destined for the path of a God Slayer, strengthening through killing, with no return.
Despite reaching a bottleneck, Earth did not offer many suitable prey for him to harvest life essence from, but Bi Xiao was still happy. After all, it had only been a year since his transmigration, and he had already reached this stage.
He still had over a decade to grow, and if Earth lacked suitable prey, he could always seek them beyond Earth.
Some so-called gods were not beyond his reach to kill.
It seemed that the Omnipotence City housed many gods, a thought that almost made Bi Xiao salivate, though these gods were not easy to kill.
Zeus and Odin were gods of the same caliber, yet they were formidable.
Going to the Omnipotence City to slaughter gods would be tantamount to declaring war, and he might face a coalition of gods from beyond the city.
If he were to kill, he had to do so stealthily, possibly pinning the blame on Gorr, letting the God Butcher to take the fall.
After all, there was no difference between Gorr killing and him killing.
Bi Xiao's thoughts drifted slightly; he had not yet experienced slaughtering gods, but he expected it would not be lacking in experience.
