102: I think you should disappear! [Good reviews + 6 more chapters]
"Boss, this is the place."
Capybara stopped in its tracks and spoke.
"Buried here are the 'gods' who once dominated Barbaric Star and even the entire universe."
"Though they are dead, the powerful laws they mastered in Life still remain within their skeletal remains."
"However, this place is also very dangerous."
It pointed to the shadows emitting a faint phosphorescence wandering among the giant skeletons in the distance.
"Those are 'Bone-Eaters,' bizarre creatures that feed on the residual laws within these divine skeletons. They have no physical form, are immune to most physical attacks, and are extremely difficult to deal with."
Bone-Eaters?
Su Jue looked in the direction it pointed.
He saw translucent shadows of various shapes; some looked like wolves, some like snakes, and others were just twisted masses of light.
Their energy fluctuations were generally between the Domain Transformation Realm and the Divine Ability Realm.
[Ding! New energy lifeform discovered: Bone-Eater (First Layer of Supernatural Power Realm)!]
[Species Analysis: A special existence condensed from a high concentration of 'Law of Death' and 'soul energy'.]
[Abilities: Soul Shock, Physical Immunity, Law Devouring.]
[Weakness: Fears the power of pure 'Law of Life' and 'Law of Light'.]
[Devouring Suggestion: The taste might not be great, but its core contains the pure 'Law of Death,' which will greatly assist the Host in comprehending related laws!]
Law of Death?
Su Jue's eyes lit up again.
This was good stuff.
Although it wasn't as overbearing or fundamental as the Decay Law, it was still an extremely powerful negative law.
Once learned, it would be another tool in his arsenal for future fights.
"They'll do."
Su Jue licked his lips and pointed at a wolf-shaped Bone-Eater gnawing on a massive leg bone in the distance, saying, "For tonight's dinner, we're having Braised Wolf Soul."
Capybara: "..."
It knew it would be like this.
In the eyes of this baby boss, everything was edible.
"Boss, these guys are hard to handle," it couldn't help but remind him. "They have no physical form, and my technological weapons aren't very effective against them."
"I know."
Su Jue nodded.
"So, this time..."
He grinned.
"We'll try a different way of eating."
With that, he slowly closed his eyes.
The next second.
Buzz—!
A completely different power radiated from his body.
It wasn't the deathly stillness and dominance of the Power of Decay.
Nor was it the majesty and arrogance of the Chaos Dragon Body.
It was a kind of power that was... even more ancient, even more vast, and even more deeply connected to the origin of the soul!
Wisps of pure white light seeped out from Su Jue's tiny body.
Between his eyebrows, the long-dormant the human emperors call mark lit up for the first time!
A will that seemed capable of shaking the entire world suddenly descended, centered on him!
[Ding! Unknown power activation detected!]
[Analyzing...]
[Analysis successful!]
[Congratulations to the Host! Your Heart Canon has finally broken through its bottleneck through continuous battle and enlightenment!]
[Heart Canon (Entry 0.3%) → Heart Canon (Entry 1%)!]
[Congratulations to the Host! You have gained a preliminary understanding of the supreme power of the Archaic Human Race—'Heart Power'!]
[Heart Power (Elementary): Use the soul's will to interfere with physical matter and energy! Your will shall become your most powerful weapon!]
"Heart Power..."
Su Jue felt the brand-new power within his body, a flash of realization crossing his eyes.
So this was the true trump card that allowed the Archaic Human Race to contend with the Dragon Ancestors!
It wasn't some fancy law.
It wasn't some world-destroying divine ability.
It was an inward search, excavating the power from the deepest depths of one's own soul!
"Will..."
Su Jue murmured to himself.
He slowly raised his head and cast his gaze once more toward the wolf-shaped Bone-Eater feasting in the distance.
This time, the greed and appetite from before were gone from his eyes.
There was only... absolute calmness.
He slowly raised his right hand and lightly tapped with his index finger.
"I think you should disappear."
The moment the words fell.
In the distance, the First Layer of Supernatural Power Realm wolf-shaped Bone-Eater's massive body, composed of pure energy, suddenly began to tremble violently!
It was as if it had seen the most terrifying thing in the world, letting out a shriek that originated from the depths of its soul!
Then, under the horrified gazes of Capybara, Niu Tuo, and Mao Xiaomeng.
Its body began to be erased, inch by inch, from the inside out!
There was no explosion, no dissipation.
It simply vanished into thin air.
It was as if the 'concept' of its existence had been forcibly deleted from this world!
And Su Jue, who had caused all this, just stood there, without even moving a finger.
He had merely 'thought' it.
And then, a Shentong Realm Expert was gone.
"Holy... shit..."
The half-eaten carrot in Capybara's mouth fell to the ground with a 'thud'.
Looking at Su Jue's back, it felt like its quantum core... was about to burn out again.
What just happened?
That Infant just stood there and said, "I think you should disappear."
And then, a First Layer of Supernatural Power Realm energy lifeform that was immune to physical attacks actually disappeared?!
Like being wiped off a drawing with an eraser.
Clean, efficient, and leaving no trace.
What the hell kind of principle is this?!
Capybara's faster-than-light quantum core spun frantically, trying to establish a logical model that could explain the phenomenon before its eyes.
[Analyzing unknown attack pattern...]
[Searching database... No matches found.]
[Constructing physical model... Failed!]
[Constructing energy model... Failed!]
[Constructing law model... Failed!]
A series of eye-piercing red warnings threw Capybara's brain into a state of total chaos.
The computational power it was so proud of seemed so laughable at this moment.
Beside it, Niu Tuo and Mao Xiaomeng fared even worse.
Niu Tuo's burly body shook like a sieve as he fell to his knees with a 'thud,' burying his massive bull head deep into the soil, not even having the courage to look up.
A god!
This was absolutely a method that only a god could possess!
Mao Xiaomeng's eyes rolled back, and she slumped to the ground, literally fainting from fright.
Su Jue paid no attention to the three behind him who had lost the ability to think.
He was closing his eyes, carefully experiencing the brand-new power in his body.
Heart Power.
A power that originated from the soul yet could directly interfere with reality.
Just now, he had merely concentrated his 'will' and issued an 'erase' command to that wolf-shaped Bone-Eater.
And then, the command was executed.
It was that simple.
So simple that... it even gave him a slight sense of trepidation.
"So this is the true way to use the Heart Canon..."
Su Jue murmured to himself.
