In the void, within a realm imperceptible to the human eye, a colossal amount of pale blue mana surged with frantic intensity.
Under the effect of the "Divine Chant" talent, streaks of spell trajectories were instantly sketched into completion.
Mana surged into the spell trajectories, and the mana, born from spiritual power, gradually altered its form under the transformation of the spell trajectories.
In the real world, ten fiery sparks abruptly appeared and expanded into massive fireballs. Chen Luo casually waved his hand, and the fireballs shot straight towards the darkness before him.
Boom! With a violent explosion, the area in front of Chen Luo was instantly cleared.
However, the explosion's proximity generated a powerful shockwave, and Chen Luo, as the caster, could not escape this physical effect derived from the spell.
Yet, the terrifying force that would have sent an ordinary person flying was, upon impact with Chen Luo's body, instantly neutralized as if striking a reef.
With strength and constitution more than four times that of an average person, Chen Luo could easily withstand the aftermath of these attacks.
The plaza before Chen Luo, originally completely covered in snow, now had tens of square meters of accumulated snow instantly blown away by the fierce wind.
[Killed Night Wolf x47, gained 9400 experience, Fireball proficiency +10]
Chen Luo looked at the cleared space within the wolf pack with icy eyes.
But this time, Chen Luo did not wait for the wolf pack to fill the void; he immediately began a new casting.
Instantly, new fireballs converged before Chen Luo, and terrifying power unleashed a furious barrage upon everything existing before him!!!
The wolf pack, which had been surging forward, eagerly anticipating their meal, was momentarily stunned by the ferocity of Chen Luo's firepower.
When the explosions ceased, a large swathe of the dense wolf pack before Chen Luo had been cleared. Hundreds of Night Wolves had been reduced to dust under Chen Luo's relentless bombardment.
Faced with Chen Luo's formidable firepower, the wolf pack hesitated for a moment, but under the influence of the blood moon and the Night Wolf King, they once again filled the void Chen Luo had created.
Chen Luo, after frowning at the seemingly endless wolf pack for a moment, turned and walked back into the convention center.

Inside the venue, everyone looked at the powerful individual possessing destructive power with awe.
Although these warriors had also displayed extraordinary strength and stamina after leveling up, it paled in comparison to Chen Luo's earlier display.
The power to command the flames and freely annihilate monsters left an indelible impression on everyone's minds.
Especially some of the young ladies who were originally dressed provocatively; their eyes were no longer just sparkling as they looked at Chen Luo; they were practically glistening with moisture, about to overflow.
But unlike the others in the venue who felt their confidence surge, Chen Luo's expression grew somewhat solemn.
The bombardment, while exhilarating, had exposed Chen Luo's biggest weakness.
His mana was depleted.
...
At the C-grade stage of the Fireball spell, each fireball required Chen Luo to expend 40 mana, and a volley of ten cost 400 mana.
After his spiritual power's first transformation, every point of spiritual attribute increased his mana by 20 points, so Chen Luo's current mana pool was 2000 points.
However, this 2000 mana was also completely consumed after the barrage of attacks.
[Mana]: 150/2000 (Spiritual power first transformation, mana recovers 5 points per second)
The powerful spiritual attribute transformation had also brought about a qualitative change in Chen Luo's mana recovery rate.
A recovery speed of 5 points per second even surpassed the effect of casting the Meditation spell.
However, relying solely on self-recovery, it would take Chen Luo 400 seconds to replenish his mana.
A recovery time of six minutes was simply too luxurious in the current battlefield.
Facing this difficult situation, Chen Luo was not without recourse.
One option was to rely on the three hundred warriors he had trained, having them resist continuously to buy him time.
While recovering, he could provide fire support, cooperating in this manner to hopefully withstand the wolf pack's assault.
This was Chen Luo's initial plan and the reason he had gathered the entire safe zone.
But now, as his strength grew, and Chen Luo realized that humanity, as the rulers of the planet, could only cower under the might of monsters, an inexpressible anger burned within him.
He possessed strength surpassing everyone else, yet he still had to hide behind them like a coward?
It shouldn't be like this!
Suddenly, a small hand tugged at Chen Luo from behind. Chen Luo turned to see Hu Tao, her expression somewhat uneasy.
Ever since Chen Luo had returned to the venue, he had been exuding an oppressive aura, and others dared not even approach him.
Hu Tao, being carefree, looked at Chen Luo in this state with a simple thought:
"Chen, Chen Luo, are you okay? You look pale, do you need me to heal you? I'm your exclusive healer!"
Seeing Hu Tao, whose face was a little pale under his oppressive aura but still wanted to care for him, Chen Luo's agitated heart trembled slightly.
He couldn't help but reach out and pinch Hu Tao's delicate little face:
"Don't worry, I'm very strong, those weaklings can't hurt me. But you, if you're a boy, don't be so cute. If you keep this up, I'm afraid I'll be swayed."
Hu Tao's face, cool and smooth, flushed slightly as Chen Luo's palm cupped it. Hearing Chen Luo's words, her beautiful big eyes widened:
"I! I! I'm not!"
Hu Tao's interruption greatly improved Chen Luo's mood. He ignored Hu Tao, who seemed about to say something, pinched her delicate little face again, and turned to walk back into the venue:
"Give me some time! Come and call me when the safe zone is about to disappear! I have an idea I want to try!"
Hu Tao, eager to clarify that she was a girl, instinctively wanted to chase after him.
But Su Xiao, who had been watching the entire exchange, reached out and pulled Hu Tao into her embrace.
"Mmm! Mmm! Let me go! Bad woman!!"
Su Xiao simply chuckled, ruffled Hu Tao's small head, and said softly:
"Alright, alright, don't disturb our Boss Chen Luo. Hu Tao, come play with big sister."
This "bad woman" really wanted to see Chen Luo's expression when he discovered Hu Tao was a girl.
So the poor Hu Tao could only be "killed by big sister's chest" once more.
