Chapter 671
Chapter 671: Chapter 604 The Mistaken Dragon Chapter 671: Chapter 604 The Mistaken Dragon With the surging of the Black Mud, Old Mu and Guwal’s figures began to slowly emerge.
There were a few insignificant minions, but Tao Yu couldn’t be bothered to deal with them.
However, these two were considered high-quality goods.
Through spirit communication with them, Tao Yu’s expression involuntarily became somewhat peculiar.
“Well, well, there’s even a plan targeting me…”
In Old Mu’s hunting list of important individuals, his own name surprisingly ranked near the top, only behind Sun Shiyu and Sun Shiqing.
Biteriya and Cheng Yu were even higher on the list.
What was key was that although Treya and Cheng Yu were ranked immediately after Tao Yu, according to the information from the dream, Old Mu wouldn’t risk exposing his identity to kill them.
But taking out Tao Yu if given the chance, even if it meant leaving traces that would alert the Suns to the presence of a Catastrophe Level individual, was a risk Old Mu was willing to take.
‘Courageous and strategic, with exceptional talent, this youth must not be allowed to remain.’ That was Old Mu’s assessment of Tao Yu; having been involved in a series of incidents in the State Capital and helped the Suns to secure their foothold, Tao Yu had become recognized by certain powers as a potential Catastrophe Level threat.
Given time, he would very likely reach that degree.
Moreover, possessing the kind of ability related to Duel Space, once he became Catastrophe Level, he would play an extremely important role in localized conflicts.
Just as the Decaron family had invited Tao Yu, who was still a ‘World Breaker’, to act on their behalf during restrictive conditions in the State Capital, Tao Yu, with his dueling ability, could easily produce impressive combat results.
“Not bad, this old timer has some insight.”
Tao Yu did not bother to painstakingly restore Old Mu’s consciousness.The memories were fragmented, hardly more extensive than what he gleaned from spirit communication, and Old Mu was a follower of the Evil God, making it completely unnecessary.
As for Guwal, Tao Yu thought for a moment and decided not to retain him either, choosing the crude option of dream spirit communication to directly read the fragmented information.
There was no need to laboriously patch things together!
And the information on Guwal’s side was not too extensive.@@novelbin@@
He seemed to be from a strange timeline in a Different World where the Demon King had already been defeated and Guwal had been sealed.
After the fall of the Abyss, he was unsealed.
Guwal’s memory fragments contained quite a bit of information about his research in magic; despite being of the Demon Race, he was more of a pure researcher.
And what stood out in Guwal’s memories was the hero party that defeated and sealed him.
Elves, Dwarves, Priests, Heroes – a rather standard team.
“Heroes fighting evil dragons?
I wonder which little fragment that was.
The ability is quite good, but it’s a pity that the timeline is all warped.
The Demon King has been dead for decades…”
Guwal also exploded with a magic-boosting eyeball, a bonus, so to speak, which Tao Yu did not disdain.
However, Old Mu, with his Catastrophe Level status, turned out to be quite disappointing.
His storage equipment contained quite a number of female personal garments, and beyond that, just some items of Evil God worship.
All were pretty much useless garbage, not even convenient to sell for money.
“A pauper indeed, no wonder followers of the Evil God pose such a threat, yet the enthusiasm for exterminating them isn’t that high, with many just acting in self-defense.”
Tao Yu rubbed his forehead.
The Floating City had a comprehensive defense system against followers of the Evil God.
But when it came to the minor details of cleanup, there didn’t seem to be much motivation.
No gains to speak of and the risk of God Statue pollution backlash made it quite troublesome.
“Hm?”
Just as Tao Yu finished clearing the field and was collecting things to take away, he suddenly sensed something.
He was currently scavenging in an underground base, but something above was approaching rapidly.
“There’s more?
The dream spirit communication didn’t detect it; it’s well hidden.”
Tao Yu hesitated for a moment, then his body quickly became enveloped in an ominous aura of darkness, as if transforming into a shadowy figure.
He then shot directly up towards the ceiling above.
Boom~
Amidst the charred debris of a warehouse, the ground burst open, and the shadowy form that was Tao Yu soared into the sky.
“Hmph~”
A crisp, cold snort rippled from afar, the psychic vibrations so fast they exceeded the speed of sound.
“Trying to escape?”
“Your reaction is quite quick.”
Three streaks of light tore through the sky, coming with incredible speed!
“Three Catastrophe Level individuals?”
Tao Yu’s heart chilled, but then a sense of eagerness stirred within him.
As far as the aura was concerned, although it was Catastrophe Level, it didn’t seem too strong.
The mightiest one felt about as strong as Esdeath; the other two even less so than Saruman!
This is doable!
“Heh heh heh, delivering yourselves to my doorstep, you’re courting death!”
Tao Yu utilized the waste from the Evil God artifacts on Old Mu, releasing all of the pollution aura within them.
Coupled with the shadow he had become, the entire sky seemed as if it was being eroded by darkness, allowing a mass of black light to keep expanding.
“Die!”
Three beams of Homicidal Magic, a variant of black light, burst forth from Tao Yu’s hands, and directly bombarded the three figures in the sky.
Mixed with the Evil God’s polluted atmosphere, they were continually enhanced by the negative attributes of Tao Yu himself.
Just one strike caused the faces of the three flying figures to drastically change.
“Powerful!”
“A follower of the Evil God?”
“Be careful!”
Each of the three used their own skills, and the person whose aura Tao Yu felt to be the strongest snorted lightly.
A terrifying, pure white Holy Light pierced through the darkness from the heavens, forming into a projection of the Castle of Holy Light, firmly shielding the three of them inside.
The three beams of Homicidal Magic’s black light heavily collided with the Castle of Holy Light.
Boom~
A fearsome shockwave twisted through the sky, spreading instantly.
The wreckage of the base on the ground, already destroyed by a wildfire, had its protruding surfaces completely erased!
The shockwave, sweeping up wreckage and gravel, spread out like a sandstorm.
Meanwhile, the brilliance of the City of Holy Light in the sky also dimmed considerably, its surface covered in cracks.
But it stubbornly blocked this difficult and swift attack.
“Not bad.”
Tao Yu, heartened by the hunt, let out a cackling laugh.
However, he then strangely noticed that the other two figures—one was continuously emitting a shadowy radiance, while the other used Telekinesis to form dark, shadowy spears in mid-air, which then pierced through the sky towards him.
“Shadows, Telekinesis, and Holy Light…”
From the shadow behind Tao Yu, tendrils of the Tailed Beasts Assembly emerged, instantly wrapping around and intercepting the swarm of attacks, and then using those shadowy spears as weapons to knock away the Swords of Judgment descending from the sky.
Ripples exploded through the air.
As a crucifix illusion suddenly appeared around Tao Yu, seemingly wanting to pin him down, a slight awkwardness flickered across his eyes.
It seems…
It’s the Suns…
“Ah~”
Tao Yu, nailed to the crucifix, suddenly spewed out a mouthful of rapidly steaming black blood, as if suffering a tremendous injury.
He then flew backward, clutching his chest, and smashed through the entire crucifix.
“Very well, very well, you just remember this…”
After speaking, he transformed into a black streak and swiftly retreated, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.
This caused the three who had been on high alert to look at each other in bewilderment.
“Lan, when did your Holy Cross gain offensive capabilities?”
One of the handsome middle-aged men asked a beautiful woman looking like a young girl with some confusion.
“I don’t know either.
Maybe it was simply a matter of pure attribute incompatibility?”
The beautiful woman also seemed a bit perplexed at the time, how did I not know my ability could attack…
“However, it’s a bit troublesome.
That guy is quite strong, slightly beyond our expectations.
It looks like we’ll need Guang Yao to come over to subdue him.”
The old man using the shadows spoke with a more somber tone.
Although it was only a few exchanges, at their level, they were able to glimpse the terror of their opponent.
Attack, defense, speed—every aspect was top-notch.
Within just a few moves, they felt the pressure.
If not for whatever reason that last attack injured him, it might not have been so simple to settle.
“It’s possible that the follower of the Evil God suffered a backlash—let’s go to the other two locations, and quickly.”
“Right…”
What do you think?
