They saw it!!!
That blue and red figure, symbolizing invincibility! That symbolizing hope!!!
Superman!!!
it turns out!!!
The instant his fist collided with that Eastern man's!
It was like being hit head-on by an antimatter bomb!
He let out a painful groan!
The entire arm! At an extremely unnatural and bizarre angle!!!
Utterly twisted!!! Deformed!!! Even... shattered?!
Then!!!
His body was as indestructible as steel!
It was like a kite with a broken string!
At an even faster speed than when we arrived!!!
Hard!
He was sent flying backwards!
Like a cannonball!!!
It crashed straight through dozens of skyscrapers in the distance!
final!!!
It disappeared at the edge of the horizon!
A long, ravaged tunnel remained, bearing the marks of destruction!
quiet!!!
A deathly silence!
The entire world seemed to fall completely silent at that moment!
Whether it's the stunned citizens on the ground of the metropolis!
Or those agents at DEO headquarters who were already terrified!
Or perhaps it was the Dark Knight in the Batcave whose face turned deathly pale!
even!
Even behind Lin Tian were Wanda, Jean, and Gwen, three queens who were used to "big scenes"!
At this moment, look at Lin Tian, who is still in his punching stance, completely calm and collected, with not even the hem of his clothes disheveled!
His eyes were filled with unprecedented shock and...frenzy!!!
One punch!!!
Just one punch!!!
It will become one of the most powerful beings in the universe!
Superman with a body of steel!!!
It was knocked away?!
They even... broke one of his arms?!
The Master's Power...
It's gotten this powerful?!
This is simply...
This has exceeded their wildest imaginations!
Lin Tian slowly withdrew his fist, a slightly disappointed expression appearing on his face?
"That's it?"
He shook his head, seemingly still wanting more.
"I thought... the power of the Kryptonians might bring me some surprises."
"It seems..."
"I overestimated you, Karl El."
His voice wasn't loud, but it reached the ears of everyone who could hear it clearly.
Full of…
It's hard to put into words...
Contempt!!!
Lin Tian's punch was so powerful that it not only sent Superman Clark Kent flying like a sandbag, but also completely crushed his pride and confidence as a "god among men," along with the bones in his arm!
Lying several kilometers away in a scene of devastation, Superman struggled to get up, but the excruciating pain from his severed arm and the chaotic Kryptonian energy within his body caused by the massive impact made it extremely difficult for him to even move a finger!
What terrified and spurred him to despair even more was Lin Tian's last words, which were full of contempt!
"That's it?"
"I overestimated you, Karl El."
Karl El!
He actually knew my Kryptonian name?!
And… he seems… disappointed with my power?!
An unprecedented storm was brewing in Superman's heart!
Who exactly is this man?!
Why is his power so terrifying?! How could he so easily crush my proud steel body?!
Could it be... that he's also a Kryptonian? Even more powerful than General Zod?!
No! wrong!
The energy emanating from him was completely different from that of the Kryptonians! It was a terrifying power that was more ancient, more profound, and more... closer to the origin of the universe!
Could he be... some ancient god hidden on Earth? Or... a being from a higher dimension?!
Superman's mind was in complete chaos! He felt that his worldview and understanding of power, which he had always built up, had been completely overturned in this moment!
Just as Superman was gripped by shock and despair.
Lin Tian's figure appeared before him again, as silently as a ghost.
He looked down at Superman, who lay disheveled amidst the ruins, a playful smile on his face.
"It seems you need some help?" Lin Tian asked knowingly.
Superman looked at the man before him, who resembled a demon, his eyes filled with vigilance, anger, and a hint of...uncontrollable fear!
But he did not beg for mercy!
The Kryptonians' last pride! And their sense of responsibility as guardians of Earth! They would not allow him to bow down to this powerful enemy of unknown origin!
"What...what exactly do you want to do?!" Superman asked through gritted teeth.
“Me?” Lin Tian smiled, squatted down, and looked Superman in the eye. “I’m… very interested in you.”
His gaze, like the most sophisticated scanner, swept unabashedly over Superman, as if he were examining a rare collectible.
"Kryptonian genes... are truly a perfect creation." Lin Tian exclaimed in amazement. "Being able to absorb stellar energy and transform it into such powerful physical strength and all sorts of incredible abilities... it's simply... a mobile energy furnace."
“If…” A burning light flashed in Lin Tian’s eyes, “If we could unravel the mysteries of this gene… or even… integrate it into our own cultivation system…”
Superman felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this!
This guy! Could it be... he wants to dissect me?! Study my genes?!
Fear gripped his heart in an instant!
"You won't get away with this!!!" Superman roared, attempting to muster the remaining power within him to fight back!
But Lin Tian simply reached out and placed his hand on his forehead.
hum!
A vast, ocean-like spiritual power, yet carrying a chilling aura and an aura of absolute control, instantly surged into Superman's consciousness!
Like invisible shackles! They instantly imprisoned his thoughts! They suppressed all the energy within him!!!
Superman felt his mind go completely blank.
"Hmm... indeed a very resilient physique..." Lin Tian marveled as he "examined" Superman's body structure and energy flow. "Incredible bone density... inconceivable muscle fiber strength... extremely high cellular energy conversion efficiency..."
“However…” Lin Tian frowned slightly, “his combat skills… are really too crude.”
"Possessing world-destroying power, yet only knowing the simplest punches and kicks? And the use of heat vision and freezing breath is far too simplistic..."
“And… your mental defenses… are riddled with holes.” Lin Tian shook his head, his tone full of regret and guidance. “Karl El, your talent… is such a waste.”
Superman, upon hearing Lin Tian's "guidance" that sounded like a teacher critiquing a student, was filled with unprecedented humiliation and anger!
But at the same time!!!
He couldn't refute it either!
Because what Lin Tian said... seemed to be... true!!!
He definitely relies too much on his powerful physical abilities! He has significant weaknesses in combat skills and mental defense!
If that weren't the case! He wouldn't have been knocked so badly by Lin Tian's single punch!
This man… not only is his strength terrifying! His insight is also incredibly sharp!
For the first time, Superman began to have deep doubts about his own power and fighting style.
"It seems you need to 'study' a bit more." Lin Tian looked at the fleeting wavering in Superman's eyes and revealed a devilishly seductive smile.
“I can… teach you.”
"Teaching you how to truly use your power."
"Teach you how to make up for your weaknesses."
"I'll even... teach you how to become stronger!"
"Powerful enough... to protect everything you want to protect!"
Lin Tian's words! Like a curse.
To become stronger?! To protect everything?!
Isn't this exactly what he's always dreamed of?!
If... if it really could be like he said...
Superman's heart! For the first time! Shook violently!!!
He looked at the mysterious and powerful man before him!
My heart was filled with extremely complex emotions!
Let go of so-called "pride" and "position"?
To this "Demon King" who may possess the secrets of even greater power?
Seeking "guidance"?
even…
Surrender?
Superman's belief! At this moment!
An unprecedentedly huge crack has appeared!!!
Seeing the intense struggle and wavering in Superman's eyes, Lin Tian knew that his "psychological warfare" had begun to work!
