Chapter 762: Arrival of Dawnbreaker

"That Mr. Duan has a huge appetite. He wants the Origin of the origin sacred tree, and he also wants the Origins of these old-era Dominators. If we don't hurry up, the remaining five ruins will probably be completely gobbled up by him."

Hearing this, Zhou Huai did not show any intention of setting off immediately.

He shook his head and smiled, "No rush."

"No rush?" Chun frowned, "Weren't you in such a rush just now to get ahead of that guy surnamed Duan? Why aren't you in a rush anymore?"

"Next, we won't have much time to rest." Zhou Huai moved his neck, and the abyssal blood battle armor emitted a dull metallic friction sound, "That old bastard Duan, having discovered that his chess piece the Extreme Ice Empress was crushed by me, will likely chase after us immediately."

"I naturally understand the principle that speed is crucial in war. But I just finished a fight and stubbornly withstood the heavenly lightning; I need to rest at least a little."

Zhou Huai paused and looked into the distance, "Besides, sharpening the axe never delays the job of woodcutting. Before going to face the next monster, I should boost my own combat power first."

Hearing this, Chun couldn't help but be stunned.

Her pretty eyes widened slightly as she stared at Zhou Huai, her voice pitching up an octave, "Your strength… can still be improved?!"

Zhou Huai only smiled without a word, offering her no explanation.

Looking at Zhou Huai's expression, which completely disregarded the Laws of heaven and earth, Chun drew a sharp breath.

This brat's method of improvement was indeed a bit too bizarre.

Chun muttered inwardly.

Open his mouth to shout a few words, let a little light shine on his body, and he could forcefully raise the Rank of his Clones!

This method of directly tampering with the underlying code, even that Mr. Duan who broke the shackles of the Heavenly Dao and fancied himself the True God of the new world, probably couldn't achieve!

Zhou Huai ignored Chun's shock as his consciousness sank deep into his mind.

On the System panel, the newly credited 300 million Karma value was flashing with a blood-pumping golden light.

"300 million…"

Zhou Huai licked his lips inwardly.

Spending 50 million just now gave him the terrifying strength to tear old-era Dominators apart with his bare hands. Now holding a huge sum of 300 million, if he let the Great Sage Li Er open the Saints Domain again and paired it with Word of Law, he was completely confident in pulling the top-tier SSS-Rank Clones in his hands up by another unimaginable, terrifying level!

As long as the Rank of his Clones soared, his main body, which possessed Ten Thousand Aspects into One, would definitely usher in a qualitative change in strength!

Just as Zhou Huai was preparing to use this huge sum of money to continue ruthlessly raising the Rank of all his Clones—

He stopped his movements.

"Hm?"

Zhou Huai furrowed his brow slightly and let out a soft exclamation, swallowing back the true words he was about to utter.

"What's wrong?" Chun keenly detected the change in Zhou Huai's aura and vigilantly glanced around.

Zhou Huai sneered, killing intent leaking from the eyes beneath his mask: "That Mr. Duan's dogs have come looking for us."

"What do you mean?"

Zhou Huai raised his hand, Mental Energy fluctuations swirling around his fingertips.

Just a moment ago, the Information Bugs scattered outside to stand guard had transmitted an extremely interesting piece of intelligence to him.

Just outside Tokyo City, a group of Professionals were rapidly rushing over.

Furthermore, their strengths were not low at all; surprisingly, several of them were SS-Rank Experts.

In this present world, SS-Ranks were already considered the absolute Peak group of people at the top of the pyramid.

To be able to pop out so many experts all at once.

Anyone could figure out with their toes that these people were probably the revived Ancient Awakened Ones within the Dawnbreaker Guild.

Not just Sakura Country.

At the very same time, outside the borders of Daxia and several important cities, a few SS-Rank Experts had also appeared. Marshal Zhao Qingcang of Daxia had already begun leading troops to negotiate and stand in a standoff with the other party.

Zhou Huai had long anticipated that people from the Dawnbreaker Guild would come to close the net, but he hadn't expected the other party's actions to be so fast.

What a pity, the people from the Dawnbreaker Guild still arrived a step too late.

Those Ancient Awakened Ones who went on a rampage in Sakura Country and were captured had long been sucked dry to the last drop by Caesar's Parasites, practically turning into mummies!

The moment he thought of those arrogant ancient monsters of the Dawnbreaker Guild eagerly running over to receive their companions, only to see a pile of dried corpses drained of experience points, Zhou Huai couldn't help but want to see the wonderful expressions on their faces.

…

Meanwhile, in the outside world.

One thousand meters high above the sky outside Tokyo City.

Dozens of people dressed in unified black trench coats, with the dark red blazing sun emblem of the Dawnbreaker Guild embroidered on their chests, stood proudly in the air.

Fierce winds whipped their hems, but these dozens of people stood steadily in the air, their bodies radiating terrifying coercion.

The weakest among them were at the S-Rank Peak!

And the few people leading them shockingly radiated SS-Rank Law fluctuations!

However, at this moment, this group of Dawnbreaker Guild members who should have descended with high-and-mighty savior postures all wore solemn expressions, their eyes even revealing a hard-to-conceal bewilderment.

"What's going on?"

The Red-haired Strongman at the head frowned, his steel-needle-like short red hair dancing wildly in the wind. He looked down at the bustling super metropolis below, where neon lights could even be seen flashing, his eyeballs almost popping out.

"What the hell! What on earth is going on here?!"

The Red-haired Strongman couldn't help cursing angrily, "Clearly, when we were across the ocean earlier, we sensed the intense energy fluctuations erupting from here from far away!"

"Yeah, with such terrifying high-dimensional energy bombarding each other, logically speaking, this fragile Mortal city of the present world should have long been razed to the ground in the collision of Laws, and even its foundations should have sunk to the bottom of the sea!"

"Yet… yet how is it still completely undamaged?!"

The crowd from the Dawnbreaker Guild looked at each other in dismay.

In their view, the streets of Tokyo were level and lined with tall buildings. Aside from chaotic crowds running around on some streets, they couldn't see any traces left behind by a world-destroying-level battle at all.

They could never have dreamed that just over half an hour ago, this city had indeed turned into an abyss of ruins.

It was simply because Zhou Huai, on a whim, in order to harvest the Karma faith of those millions of Mortals, summoned the phantom of Dao Ancestor Li Er, and with an unreasonable move of time reversal, forcefully pieced and restored this city back together!

This cross-dimensional information gap directly dumbfounded this group of old monsters from the old era of the Dawnbreaker Guild.

"Are you sure… that those Ancient Awakened Ones of Sakura Country are all in this city?"

The Red-haired Strongman suppressed the shock and uncertainty in his heart, turned his head, and looked at a man behind him.

That was a man with an extremely slender figure and an effeminate face. His eyes were completely covered by an eerie grayish-white; he was an extremely rare mental-type or perception-type SS-Rank Expert.

The slender man formed a strange hand seal in front of his chest with both hands, his grayish-white eyes staring at the city below.

After a moment, he nodded with certainty.

"I am certain, they are right in the city below!"

The slender man spoke with a firm tone, but immediately after, his expression turned extremely bizarre, even revealing an uncontainable terror.

"Yet…"

"Yet what? Why are you stuttering and hesitating!" the Red-haired Strongman barked impatiently.

The slender man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his voice trembling slightly: "My Lord, I feel… their auras are all a bit wrong."

"I can sense that the locations of the dozens of them are concentrated together, but the Origin fluctuations on their bodies… are extremely weak! They are simply like a remaining candle in the wind, about to go out!"
