Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.

Lin Anlan stood by the window in the living room, looking worriedly at the approaching army. She then glanced at Su Yang in the study next door, as if she had made up her mind. She put down her luggage and prepared to fight to the death.

Su Yang glanced out the window, closed his book, got up and walked out of the study. He came to Lin Anlan's side, smiled slightly at her, and said, "Wait for me in the room, don't go anywhere." Then he walked out of the room without looking back.

The soldiers outside cautiously approached, and when they saw the door open and Su Yang standing in front of them, they were all on high alert, their grip on their weapons tightening unconsciously, as if afraid that their weapons would disappear at any moment.

Su Yang turned around and gently closed the door. He took two more steps forward, looked around at the swarm of soldiers, and silently stroked the Cloud Ring on his finger. Then, bursts of purple light emanated from the Cloud Ring. When the garrison commanders noticed this, fearing that Su Yang would gain the upper hand, they immediately issued an attack order.

Countless soldiers roared and charged towards Su Yang, their elemental powers flashing, but they were quickly covered by a purple light. A circle of purple light spread outward from Su Yang, causing the soldiers at the front to instinctively raise their hands to block it. However, the purple light vanished in an instant and disappeared without a trace.

Many soldiers checked their own condition and found no injuries or discomfort. They looked at each other and then roared as they charged again. Watching the charging soldiers, Su Yang's lips moved slightly, and he whispered, "Myriad Manifestations Proliferation." Then he clenched his fist, and a second purple light emanated from it, faster than the first, quickly covering all the soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, the weapons in the soldiers' hands all became soft. The originally straight spears drooped down like candy and then turned into water, scattering on the ground. The soldiers stared blankly at this scene, wondering how Su Yang had done it. But then something astonishing happened.

The "water" formed from the soldiers' weapons on the ground began to gradually condense and rise from the ground, slowly forming human figures. Once fully formed, these human figures looked exactly like the soldiers themselves, as if they were carved from the same mold.

These humanoid figures assumed a fighting stance, ready to engage the soldiers before them. Caught off guard, the soldiers were quickly struck by a heavy punch. As they rose to retaliate, they were shocked to find yet another humanoid figure had appeared before them. The commander at the rear was dumbfounded. He clearly saw the soldiers' weapons dissolve into water, then coalesce into human form, and then spontaneously split into individual entities.

The situation turned into a two-on-one fight. The soldiers reacted and began to defend themselves, but suddenly, the two humanoid figures in front of them split up again, instantly turning it into a four-on-one fight. Even though their elemental rank was low, the soldiers could tell that this was an elemental skill activated by Su Yang.

During his previous elemental practice, Su Yang discovered that the cloud element's properties were quite peculiar. The "change" attribute could not only simply alter the shape of objects, but could even enable individual proliferation. After all, besides deformation, changes in mass are also a form of change. In one test, Su Yang cast cloud elemental power on a stone, and the stone immediately transformed into two identical stones. From the front, they looked the same size and shape, but the feel of picking them up was vastly different from before. There was a sense of ethereal emptiness, as if the elemental power had compensated for the deficiencies in the objects.

After figuring out the principle, Su Yang felt that this move was quite powerful and could be developed as a major skill. So he made improvements. First, he solved the problem of how to mark objects with elemental markers over a large area. This can be considered a prerequisite, somewhat like the relationship between the hazy aura and the fog.

He pushed out the cloud element in the form of elemental particles, using the power of the elemental synthesis, so that every object within range could be attached to his cloud elemental particles and then they would all start to multiply. However, some objects multiplied completely, while others only multiplied a small portion. Su Yang realized that this required a particularly high level of mastery of elemental power.

After continuous practice, Su Yang finally mastered the degree of transformation, and the ultimate skill "Myriad Manifestations Proliferation" was finally formed.

With the influx of cloud elements, the humanoid objects before the soldiers split from four to eight, then to sixteen, seemingly without end. The soldiers, already struggling to fight two at a time, found it even more difficult to contend with, and casualties quickly began to appear. Seeing the situation was dire, the commander immediately ordered a retreat.

The soldiers ran back in droves. One soldier, while retreating, noticed out of the corner of his eye that a tree in the distance seemed to be moving. He thought he was seeing things, so he rubbed his eyes and looked closely. Sure enough, he saw several trees moving in his direction, splitting as they moved. They were moving incredibly fast, but he didn't see any legs or anything like that. They seemed to be moving only by their roots.

The trees quickly reached the retreating soldiers, blocking their way. Then, huge branches swept across the ground, the thick branches hitting the crowd and sending many flying. If you were hit by a small branch, it felt like being whipped.

With "tree men" in front and "iron men" behind, the garrison soldiers felt trapped with nowhere to go. Fortunately, another garrison arrived just then. Upon seeing the situation, they immediately organized fire elemental soldiers to draw their bows and shoot countless fire arrows at the trees, instantly setting them ablaze. The trees, now on fire, immediately stopped moving, seemingly returning to their original state, and gradually fell to the ground, allowing the besieged soldiers to escape.

The soldiers gathered together, but what followed was the ever-split iron men behind them. They moved swiftly and soon surrounded the newly arrived garrison. The iron men formed a tight encirclement, and then the iron men that had split off charged towards the garrison inside the encirclement.

Immediately, screams and dull thuds rang out. As the encirclement tightened, wherever the Iron Man passed, the ground was littered with the corpses of the garrison soldiers and blood. Gradually, the encirclement shrank smaller and smaller, the screams grew fainter and fainter, and then everything returned to silence.

Su Yang stopped outputting elemental power, and the iron men melted into pools of black liquid, scattering on the ground. Looking at the tens of thousands of corpses scattered on the ground, Lin Anlan's eyes were filled with shock. Jiuli's gaze towards Su Yang was also filled with disgust. In her opinion, how could such a bloodthirsty person become the heir to Mr. Gu's legacy? If she had any doubts about Su Yang before, now her guess was completely confirmed: "Indeed, Mr. Gu was right. In this world, the human heart is the most difficult thing to see through."
