681: The more handsome, the stronger
On a certain Star Island.
A Humanoid life form, so handsome it was suffocating, sat quietly cross-legged on it. His breathing gradually changed from erratic to steady, as if he had just experienced something significant.
"Four Dao. As a Transmigrator, I should be the protagonist of this world, yet I've only condensed four Star Marks?"
Gao Zhongwang frowned.
After speaking, he took out a mirror from his storage space and looked at his handsome face:
"The more handsome, the stronger."
"My talent strength is actually linked to my looks! I never thought before that this would be my talent as a Transmigrator. All this time, I thought I was just purely handsome!"
After speaking, he fell into contemplation.
Back then, it wasn't until the day he Awakened the tenth Secret Treasure that his looks Broke through from the 'Tragically Horrifying Realm' to his current 'Suffocating Realm'.
He was now attempting to Break through to the third Realm, the 'Unlookable Realm'!
As for what the last Realm was, he would only know after reaching the third Realm.
Only by reaching the fourth Realm would his talent be fully maximized, and each time he Broke through a Realm, he would gain a portion of power.
"I am currently Rank 28, and even with the Ten Secret Treasures, I still can't condense the fifth Star Mark. This is simply unscientific!"
"However, the problem shouldn't be too big. Once I reach Rank 29 and Break through the 'Beauty Scripture' to the third layer, the Unlookable Realm, I should be able to condense the fifth Star Mark."
"Hmm, probably..."
"Hmm?"
Gao Zhongwang suddenly interrupted himself, as if he had discovered something, and abruptly turned his head to look into the distance:
"What's going on? An Overlord-level Civilization of Rank 32 is coming?"
"And the Eternal Frost Civilization and Singer Civilization are among them? Isn't Star Island a place only the Azure Sky Civilization visits?"
"Has something happened? To make three Overlord-level Civilizations' Domain Warriors act together?!"
Gao Zhongwang quickly stood up, gripping the two chains in his hands. His suffocatingly handsome face was filled with determination and resolve:
"I wonder if I'll be able to leave this Star Island alive..."
...100,000 meters Underground, in the former Prophet Circle, at the Prophet Alien Race's residence.
No, it wasn't that he couldn't sense it.
Rather, the image of the other party that was sensed appeared like a rock in Chen Du's eyes, not a life form.
After the Ten Secret Treasures.
Chen Du's shapeshifting ability, after transforming into other Alien Races, not only had no power restrictions but also allowed him to possess some basic abilities of that life form.
For example, the Underground Alien Race's vision that could see through darkness. Before the Ten Secret Treasures, Chen Du always used Mental Energy to observe his surroundings.
Fortunately, his Mental Energy Rank was high enough, making it more practical than eyes.
But this time was different. This time, the opponent seemed unable to be detected as a life form by Mental Energy, though he could be seen with the naked eye.
The opponent didn't seem to be doing anything intentionally. It appeared to be some kind of passive racial talent.
At close range, Chen Du also sensed the other party's life aura.
A Rank 31 Domain Warrior!
This Alien Race, who looked like a bottle of essential balm, was actually a true Domain Warrior, not a pseudo-Domain Warrior.
The opponent's sudden appearance had an unknown objective, but Chen Du was not flustered. Although a Rank 31 Domain Warrior was powerful, he was even stronger now after his battle with the Withering Egg God.
Even if a conflict truly occurred, a Rank 31 might not be unbeatable!
"I am a treasure seeker, here to see if there's anything left behind."
Chen Du replied.
The name 'treasure seeker' was literal, describing Alien Races who came here to search for resources.
However, such people wouldn't last long. It wasn't that they would die, but rather that the Prophet Circle wasn't an extremely dangerous place or a Forbidden Ground.
Resources were relatively transparent, located in the treasury. Once taken, they were gone. Without resources, the treasure seekers naturally disappeared too.
"There are no more treasures here, only some sand and lingering attachments."
"I want to stay here alone for a while."
"Although I don't know what method you used to conceal your Rank, your life level is not as high as mine. You are not a Domain Warrior."
"So, you are not my opponent. Leave, don't force me to drive you away."
Life level?
Chen Du's eyes narrowed slightly.
Indeed.
The life level of a Sky Soaring Warrior and a Domain Warrior are certainly different, but Xiao Huo hadn't noticed this before.
Thus, it seemed there were differences between true Domain Warriors and pseudo-Domain Warriors beyond combat power.
However, the opponent could detect this difference mainly because Chen Du's Divine Power content was only 10%.
He didn't need much, just a little more, and Chen Du believed the opponent wouldn't be able to tell.
Or, once he became a Domain Warrior, no one would be able to tell, unless a Starry Sky Warrior appeared.
Chen Du naturally wouldn't leave. After observing the opponent's words and actions, a conjecture suddenly arose in his mind.
Could this Alien Race, who looked like a bottle of essential balm, also be a new offshoot of the Prophet Civilization, like Durags?
"What if I don't want to leave?"
"A new emergent of the Prophet Alien Race?"
Chen Du's current strength allowed him to contend with a Rank 31 Domain Warrior. Even if he couldn't win, he could escape, so he dared to ask so directly. This was the confidence brought by his own strength.
Sufficiently strong confidence was like a constantly changing decision, allowing one to self-modify based on the current situation and make the most reasonable judgment at the moment.
Furthermore, Chen Du's conjecture wasn't some ambiguous thing like intuition, as he always spoke based on evidence.
The evidence this time was two sentences the opponent spoke.
One was, 'only some sand and lingering attachments remain.'
Lingering attachments to what?
Was it lingering attachment to the Prophet Circle, or lingering attachment to your former Civilization?
The other sentence was, 'don't force me to drive you away.'
Not 'kill you,' but 'drive you away.'
Are Domain Warriors so easy to talk to? Or does he still adhere to the no-killing order left behind by the Prophet Circle at that time?
To be honest, Chen Du couldn't guarantee his guess was correct, but his current strength gave him the capital to try and make mistakes!
After a brief silence, the essential balm-like Alien Race's expression suddenly darkened:
"Who exactly are you?!"
This voice was completely different from before, clearly carrying a hint of Killing Intent and hostility.
The opponent didn't answer, but the answer was already very clear. Chen Du knew he had guessed correctly.
The Sad Frog Village Chief's body suddenly began to tremble, and his entire physique started to change from wide to narrow.
From a plump toad, he transformed into a bipedal Humanoid life form.
"I am Wu La."
