Chapter 19: A Punch Opens the Plateau
```
Then a group of people crazily rushed into their vehicles and sped away.
The dam behind them burped like it was full, occasionally letting out an explosion, with new cracks forming on its surface. Finally, with a deafening roar, the entire dam collapsed, and the violent river water surged into the downstream channels.
The river, like a ferocious beast, broke through the downstream embankments and galloped toward a small city in the distance!
If nothing unexpected happened, this small city would become history...
Gliss, upon seeing this, cried and cursed incessantly, "Three Kingdoms, damn your ancestors, you're good for nothing but eating without leaving any leftovers, just a bunch of trash that can only boast!"
However, it was useless no matter how much he cursed; an unstoppable river bursting its banks, let alone a dam filled with water and claimed to be the world's largest?
Unstoppable!
The people in the small city also heard the thunderous noise and stopped their work to look in its direction.
All they saw was the rampant river sweeping across heaven and earth, thundering toward them!

Although Tang Sanzang had diverted part of the river, the water's momentum was too terrifying, like a force breaking through all barriers, rising up the banks, aiming to swallow everything.
The residents of the small city were dumbfounded; they wanted to run, but where could they flee on this vast plain?
Too poor to afford cars, how could they outrun the floodwaters?
The shadow of death loomed over the entire city...
People despaired.
Just then, a figure descended from the sky!
Seeing your shining bald head, Gliss grasped at the last straw of hope, yelling from the helicopter, "O holy monk from the mysterious East, I beseech you to save our country's people. Please, if you can save them, I will serve you like an ox or horse!"
Then he saw the bald man give him an OK sign and grin, saying, "Deal!"
The next moment, Tang Sanzang took a deep breath, sinking his energy into his lower abdomen—Thousand Catties Drop!
Boom!
Tang Sanzang slammed down in front of the floodwaters, then raised his fist high and bellowed, "All this water is mine; where do you think you're going? Get back in your place!"
Boom!
With one punch,
the terrifying Fist Power clashed head-on with the raging river!
The wild river water reversed under this punch, forcibly repelled back by the Fist Power!
With nowhere to go forward, the river was forced to turn in other directions.
But then the bald monk switched his stance with a left-right hop, acting like a wall, throwing punch after punch and blocking all other paths for the river. It had no choice but to obediently fall into the channel Tang Sanzang had guided it to, charging eastward and eventually merging with the main canal of the Kingdom of Sufeng.
"Continue flowing east!"
Tang Sanzang threw another punch, and the Qi Force surged like an earth dragon rampaging across the land, one punch spanning thousands of miles!
It blew through the desert area, the sandstorm swept up to reveal the mud underneath...
With this single punch, Tang Sanzang connected several underground rivers to another large river, the merged waterways forming another mighty river, continuing its journey eastward.
Meanwhile, in the central part of the same continent, several countries were at each other's throats, madly bombarding each other with cannons, tanks, and missiles.
```
Just when everyone was fighting a life and death struggle...
Boom!
A loud explosion came from the west, followed by dirt and rocks flying everywhere, filling the sky with dust, and everything blocking in front of that terrifying Qi Force was blasted into powder!
Faced with this horrifying scene, both armies were so frightened that they hastily ceased fire and retreated...
Rumble rumble...
A dirt dragon surged through the middle of both parties, leaving behind a massive gully...
After witnessing this, both sides were shocked and then filled with anger, ready to grab their weapons and go at it again.
But then they heard the rumbling sound of a river, and turning their heads, they saw a torrent of water rolling in, scaring both parties into halting the battle once more.
After the river water had passed, and both sides rolled up their sleeves ready to fight again, a bald man walked on the waves and charged over, with a distant punch he blasted a gully spanning a thousand miles.
At the same time, that bald man looked at both parties from midair and dropped a line, "This is my river, whoever dares pollute it, I will kill you!"
After saying that, the bald man left.
Although people on both sides didn't understand what the bald man had said, they didn't dare take the words of such a terrifying individual lightly.
So they immediately found a translator, and after that, both parties looked at each other, spat on the ground, and then turned around to pack up their things and go home.
Far across the ocean, the country of the Bald Eagle turned utterly dark in their faces, and one of the officers cursed directly, "Fuck! The battle situation that took us decades to stir up has just been calmed down like that, fuck!"
However, someone laughed immediately, "Minister Yukos, what's your hurry? The attitude of that Eastern Monk is very clear and simple, he's just redirecting the water to the east. But don't forget what he'll encounter as he continues westward. That's the roof of the world... Such a vast plateau, do you think he can cross it? If he can't, what use is the river?"
Hearing this, Yukos's eyes lit up as he stared hard at the plateau region on the map, then laughed loudly, "Elson, you're right... Hehe, that baldy may be powerful, but water flows downhill. Faced with the plateau, I don't believe he can make water flow uphill! The river is useless, and naturally, he'll leave it be..."
Both men laughed, raised their glasses, and clinked them, toasting to the outcome.
Smiling, they saw that bald man rushing all the way to the plateau in the western part of the Kingdom of Sufeng.
This place was known as the roof of the world, with an average altitude of four to five thousand meters!
Consider that the mountain renowned as the highest in the desert, Qiluo Mountain, was just over five thousand meters.
Thinking of river water surging up to a plateau of four to five thousand meters was indeed a challenge for water.
Just as everyone was snickering, waiting to see a good show, the bald man silently raised his fist.
"What's he going to do?"
"He's not really planning to punch the plateau, is he?"
Boom!
Tang Sanzang answered everyone with his heart's motion, without any hesitation, with a simple and crisp punch!
This punch landed directly on the plateau, a punch still so concentrated in power, and with that punch the whole plateau trembled, the earth cracked, and the entire plateau was blasted open by the explosion! The Fist Power left its mark, the plateau shattered, split apart, and a canyon spanning the entire plateau was formed!
Even more shocking was that this punch not only broke open a plateau and created a canyon through it, it was significant because it exposed many underground rivers beneath the plateau!
The waters from these underground rivers poured into the canyon, merging with multiple rivers and underground rivers from the west, forming a massive flood that again surged toward the east.
Watching this scene, everyone's mouths hung open, eyes wide, in utter silence!
At this moment, they truly didn't know how to confront what was in front of them, as it had surpassed their understanding of the world...
