Chapter 704

Chapter 704: Chapter 636: A Test of a Novice’s Skill Chapter 704: Chapter 636: A Test of a Novice’s Skill The outer ring area, though not as well-off in many respects compared to the inner ring, still has more of a human touch.

There were many street vendors propping up their stalls in the alleys, selling all sorts of things.

“They didn’t contact me to entice me, but can the outer ring area really instigate a catastrophe-level battle?

Are they trying to harm me with the backlash of the World Will?”

Tao Yu sat at a snack stall, casually munching on some snacks, while pondering over the matter.

The outer ring was also part of White Star City.

The Bai Family would not allow catastrophe-level battles to take place here.

If a fight did break out, even if they could use the Bai Family against me, the Aphis family would surely be the first to suffer.

…

To trigger the feedback of the World Will, it would be necessary for catastrophe-level beings to clash first.

“The Aphis family doesn’t have the ability to create duel spaces, do they…”

As Tao Yu ate, his thoughts wandered aimlessly.

Then, he casually glanced at a gaunt old man on the street.

Various distorted lines of space-time emerged in Tao Yu’s vision, bending slightly as they passed each person.

However, the timeline near the old man was noticeably different from that of ordinary people, twisting significantly.

This sufficiently illustrated the old man’s strength!

He was at the catastrophe level, and a strong one at that, probably not inferior to Esdeath.

At this moment, the elder, who looked like he was on his deathbed and dressed in a long robe, was slowly walking his way.

His cloudy, lifeless eyes also glanced at Tao Yu, before he came over and sat across from Tao Yu at the table, letting out a sigh of emotion.

“Such vigor and vitality, truly enviable.”

“So it’s you; the undying fossil of the Aphis family.”

Tao Yu didn’t bother with pleasantries, continuing to eat as he scoffed.

Now he understood why things were this way.

It wasn’t that the Aphis family didn’t know how to cut their losses—it was because this old fossil was about to bite the dust and wanted to make a final, wasteful effort.

“What now?

You’re about to die and still want to wipe their asses for them?

Don’t you ask why?”

“Why?

Is that important?”

The dying Aphis patriarch didn’t care the slightest bit about Tao Yu’s mockery, looking at him with murky eyes.

“Young man, don’t blame me.

Although we have no grudges, you’re in my way.”

“What?

You want to unleash a disaster here with me?”

Tao Yu appeared somewhat amused, thinking if that was the case, then it would simply be a matter of stopping time and ending it quickly.

He didn’t want to attract more trouble either.

“Heh, since I’m here, of course, I have something good…”

As the Aphis patriarch crushed a crystal ball in his hand, Tao Yu also felt a violent fluctuation in the nearby space.

Even the original timeline was greatly distorted.

Although Tao Yu was confident he could dissociate from the original timeline before space solidified and leave without consequence, being a master of the Innate Barrier, he discovered something interesting at this moment—it was a similar type of maneuver.

Was this closure accomplished by a unique one-off artifact?

In situations where catastrophe-level beings were heavily restricted, different methods of circumventing those restrictions were constantly under study!

Moreover, Tao Yu felt a strong stench of star power from the shattered globe, which seemed to resonate with the worlds captured in the starry sky…

Immediately after, both Tao Yu and the Aphis patriarch seemed to be in a star-filled space.

𝑛𝗈𝘃𝗴𝘰.co

The mysterious, slick energy formed the background of this space, like a backdrop curtain.

Clap clap clap~

“What a clever design.”

Tao Yu applauded in admiration.

Having divinified his power of the Starry Sky, he could already harness the power of the stars, but the reason he could make full use of star power without fear was that he was immune to spiritual pollution.

For other Pioneers though, even if they possessed the ability to channel star power to some extent, they’d need to be extremely cautious.

It would enhance strength, but at the cost of accumulating pollution.

However, the unique artifact used by his opponent was a smart way to brutally utilize star power as a world barrier!

Without entering his body or requiring his use, there was no additional burden of pollution.

It wasn’t for his use or to attack the enemy; it just served to create an independent space with a sealing effect, forming a kind of one-off “Duel Space.”

“Hehe, this treasure was researched by the Xing Family.

It’s quite troublesome for them to make, and this one has some flaws, but it’s still easy to limit our kind of confrontation.”

As a man close to death, the verbose ancient Aphis patriarch began to explain to Tao Yu.

If something really went wrong, he had to establish another target to share the hate.

And to Tao Yu’s surprise, it was a thing of the Xing Family!

Well hidden indeed; even the Suns were unaware the Xing Family possessed such an artifact!

It was no wonder they held the Flame of Civilization in their family…

“Old man, if you can talk, tell me more.

What other treasures does the Xing Family have?”

Tao Yu looked curiously at the background starry sky, seemingly intrigued.

“Hehe, you seem very confident that you can escape.”

The hunched Aphis patriarch looked at Tao Yu with a faint smile, his turbid eyes watching him.

“But since I’ve already made a move, I definitely won’t leave this kind of trouble behind…”

As he finished speaking, he crushed another God Statue, completely giving up resistance, and forcibly fused with the will within the statue!

“Because all I need is one last burn!

I can use all the power I never dared to use before!”

The terrible pollution from the Evil God burst forth, making the starry sky backdrop shine even brighter as if responding to the Evil God’s aura emanating from the Aphis patriarch!

No longer needing to consider the future, this version of the Aphis patriarch didn’t bother with restraint; he only needed to harness this composite power for a short duration!

Fight now, for every moment counts!

“Even if you can block me, how much will your body be corroded by this power!”

The will of the elder Aphis was astounding, tightly controlling this chaotic and mixed energy, but his voice had already taken on a sinister overtone, and his emotions seemed to have become excited.

“As long as you’re deeply polluted, even if you do manage to escape by luck in the end, would you dare go to the Bai Family to complain?

Haha!”

“And the moment we discover your traces again, my descendants will actively report you!”

“Even if you can still live, fleeing out of Baixing State is the only path available to you!”

Layers upon layers of voices echoed continuously within the starry curtain, coming from all directions.

Tao Yu also reached out and scratched his ear before flicking it away,

“You don’t seem very confident in yourself, always thinking about me running away.”

“Speaking of defeat before victory is certain!”

Underneath the mix of energies, the originally withered body of the elder Aphis began to twist and distort horribly, swelling in an irregular manner.

“But, I will not lose!”

A deformed, sharp voice emerged, and the terrifying aura blossomed, the chaotic power surrounding the elder Aphis suddenly doubled in intensity!

“Corruption strength tripled, huh…”

Tao Yu shook his head, feeling a bit pitying that such a severely polluted mind would pose a problem even for grazing, and likely contained very few information fragments, but fortunately, he had already filled his quota.

Then, in the next moment, the shadow behind Tao Yu expanded in an instant, endless slick tentacles swarmed out, and the starlight around him seemed to be drawn in, simultaneously falling upon Tao Yu.

He brazenly wrested control away from the elder Aphis.

A more sinister, more terrifying, more ominous aura instantly overshadowed the elder Aphis.

It even restored a moment of clarity to him, who had begun to be clouded and confused.

Little eyes on the deformed flesh stared dumbfoundedly at Tao Yu.

Looking back at his own twisted body and the power he wielded, then seeing the sprawling, distorted tentacles, he momentarily didn’t know who was actually borrowing the power of the Evil God…

Is this a fallen Catastrophe Level?

But before he could contemplate further, Tao Yu playfully intimidated him and then tilted his head, thinking about the experiment he wanted to attempt.

“Good material, don’t waste it.”

Muttering as he glanced at that deformed disgusting thing, Tao Yu’s gaze became somewhat hollow in the next moment.

Subsequently, the entire starry world froze instantly, even fundamental particles stopped their own trajectories!

Only near Tao Yu could flow freely within the closed loop formed by the original time.

Or rather, Tao Yu had isolated himself alone from the original time, stopping the exchange of information with the outside world.

Before he reintegrated into the world or entered into the original time of the other, he could do as he pleased.

Feeling the degree of distortion of the other’s original time and the magnification of the ratio needed to leverage it, Tao Yu quickly calculated the conclusion in his mind.

“Enough for a full set two or three times, but I don’t think he can withstand even half a time, and this starry sky space can’t withstand it either…”

As his gaze refocused and the isolated original time reintegrated into the world, letting the surrounding scene begin to flow again, Tao Yu flicked his wrist towards the completely clueless elder Aphis and grabbed at him.

Afterward, Tao Yu forcibly twisted and inversely intervened in the original time near the elder Aphis!

“You…

What are you…

doing…”

The thought waves of the elder Aphis spread, but they slowed down with terrifying speed, then completely froze!

Along with that freeze were the changes and attacks he was preparing.

With Tao Yu’s void grab, the deformed flesh became like insects encased in amber.

Several evil energy balls that were forming got fixated in the process of their creation.

The next moment, innumerable tentacles swarmed over and instantly shredded him into pieces scattering across the sky, then without being picky about the traces of the Evil God’s aura on his body, they devoured everything to the last.

The fragmented remaining will of elder Aphis was utterly bewildered, without any knowledge of what had happened!

He only felt the raise of a hand by the other, and the tentacles, clearly perceivable in his senses, accelerated terrifyingly beyond understanding, surpassing the speed of light!

Faster than the speed of thought, faster than the speed of cognition!

Surpassing the limit of information transmission!

Before his forming attacks had taken shape, he was disjointed in an instant.

And in the moment of dissection, it seemed everything recovered.

But by the time it did, he was already torn asunder, his will dissipating and being devoured.

Like a rag being torn by many children, ripped apart~

In an instant, the dissection was complete…

Done…

Endless darkness came, and elder Aphis, unable to feel even pain, knew only that darkness lay ahead for his family…

“Pretty disgusting.”

Tao Yu looked disdainfully at the tentacles and then quickly retracted them into his shadow, casually throwing a punch into the void, shattering the mirrored crackle that appeared beneath his fist.

After that, there were no more attacks, he simply stretched his hand into the crack, tore it open with his bare hands, revealing the bustling street outside.

It seemed that due to the fluctuations from previous pieces, through the torn rift, one could see the horrified eyes of the passersby and some panicked screams.

Then, Tao Yu tore the opening wider and walked out shrouded in a layer of shadow.

Silently arranging an old thing to ambush himself, quite audacious…

“But an incident has already happened, and it’s not convenient to directly fight and kill in the city now, so it’s better to go and complain.

Hmm, bait them a bit, see what they would like to do after they think the mission is successful…”

But the identity ‘Klein,’ Tao Yu actually didn’t really care about it, he could just directly visit them ‘friendly,’ then pat his butt and run off.

It wasn’t the first time he had done so after all.

However, his Talent Divinification was paid for by the money of Long Yin’er and the others, so he still had to look out for them a little.

No need for constant fighting and killing…
