Chapter 593
This kind of combat power that transcended the secular world...
...already had no rules that could limit him.
The rules he spoke were the rules!
For a time...
...the top professionals of various countries were busy again.
They went to the Abyss entrances in various places to guard and station.
Some items that could teleport to the Abyss were even issued the highest level of prohibition.
Li Yao naturally didn't know about the situation outside.
In one day, he cleared a total of eight [God Ruins].
Of course, the vast majority of the time was spent on the road.
When coming out of the Eagle Country's [God Ruins]...
...his level finally reached 80.
[Ding! Currently taking the 5th-turn quest!]
[Acceptance failed!]
[Hextech system is interfering with the 5th-turn quest.]
[Ding! Cloud Top Chess Player exclusive 5th-turn quest accepted successfully!]
[Quest Introduction: The Chess Player is beginning to show his talent; there are no enemies in the current region who can be called opponents!]
[Head to the Abyss Continent and kill any indescribable object!]
[Obtained temporary quest item: Hunter's Trap. Releases an energy field that can attract hunters; if a hunter approaches within 100 kilometers of the Chess Player, the item disappears.]
"Indescribable."
Looking at the quest introduction, Li Yao whispered.
"What?" Miss Jiutiao Meise tucked the hair blown by the strong wind.
Night fell.
Above the clouds, the bright moon hung high.
Mishaluo and Mu Mu Xiaoxiao had already fallen asleep.
Only Miss Jiutiao Meise heard Li Yao's soft mutter.
"Nothing, what level are you now?"
"One more clear and I'll be level 60."
Miss Jiutiao Meise frowned slightly. "However, I haven't collected enough spiritual items."
"If I change classes directly, it's very likely that the buff skill I comprehend at the 4th turn will be a fixed value, so after the clear is over, I need to grind for materials for a while."
"Actually, there's no need to specifically change to a percentage increase," Li Yao said.
As far as he knew...
...those high-level support professions all had fixed value increases.
For ordinary professionals, fixed increases were also more obvious.
He didn't want Miss Jiutiao Meise to give up her effect on other professionals...
...because of him.
"Does Li Yao-kun think it's all for you?"
"Now 8th-turn professionals have appeared, and later there might be 9th-turn, or even 10th-turn."
"The ceiling for professionals will get higher and higher."
"The higher the ceiling, the higher the gold content of the percentage increase."
"I'm still young, of course I have to pursue a higher ceiling," Miss Jiutiao Meise said as a matter of course.
"Can't those materials be bought?" Li Yao asked.
"Some can, some very few people are selling," Miss Jiutiao Meise said. "The difficulty isn't high, it just takes time, and even if I could buy them with money, I don't have any."
"Then it's simple."
"In a few days, the teacher will help me hold a trade fair. If we release the news in advance, someone will specifically collect them for you."
"Don't refuse, count it as you owe me."
Li Yao didn't give Miss Jiutiao Meise a chance to speak. "Wake the two of them up, the next God Ruin is almost here."
Time passed quickly.
Night ended, and the sun was high.
Only the Bear Country's [God Ruins] remained.
When Li Yao and the others arrived under the vortex...
...Peggy had already looked until her eyes were worn out.
"Chief General, you're finally here!"
"Senior Peggy can just call me Li Yao," Li Yao said politely. "Then let's not waste time, shall we go in directly?"
"Good, good, good!" Peggy nodded repeatedly.
"You must be tired too, clear it early, rest early!"
Just as Li Yao was about to enter the dungeon...
...Mishaluo, who was sleepy, Mayor Woke up suddenly and grabbed Li Yao.
His expression was grave: "Benefactor Li Yao, something is wrong."
Peggy's expression froze, fearing some change, but she didn't dare to ask more.
After grabbing Li Yao...
...Mishaluo closed his eyes, and the Buddhist beads in his hand twisted.
After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes.
"What's the situation?" Mu Mu Xiaoxiao also knew the monk wasn't joking, so she hurriedly asked.
"There is an extremely terrifying evil thought inside; this monk can't calculate its specific strength."
Li Yao narrowed his eyes.
Even when he encountered the strongest Demi-God before, the monk hadn't said such things.
Could there be some change in this God Ruin?
A stronger Demi-God?
It shouldn't be.
If there really was such a strong Demi-God, this God Ruin would have fallen long ago and wouldn't have waited for him to come.
And it just happened to be the last one he cleared.
"Are you sure?" Li Yao asked.
"Yes," Mishaluo nodded seriously.
"If Benefactor Li Yao weren't here, this monk would have left long ago."
"I understand."
Li Yao thought for a moment and said, "For this one, you don't go in; wait for me outside."
Hearing this, Peggy also showed a look of worry.
She had also heard of the Dragon Country's Little Leiyin Temple, which was proficient in arithmetic.
"Chief General, why don't I call a few top professionals from the Bear Country?"
"Or, let Lady Hua come; there's no rush, safety first."
"That's not necessary; ordinary professionals can't help much."
"Miss Jiutiao Meise, I'll leave it to you."
For a time...
...except for the Devourer, all chess pieces appeared at the same time.
Miss Jiutiao Meise took out her staff and released a buff spell.
The Devourer's current body size was too large.
If it were summoned casually...
The surrounding buildings would likely all be caught in the fallout.
The Devourer does not rely on attributes; there is no need for that.
Li Yao has actually already guessed what is inside.
To be able to appear precisely in the final dungeon he was clearing,
and to possess such a terrifying threat—
other than a demon,
he cannot think of any other creature.
"So, are we meeting this soon?"
"A complete-form demon."
The amplification ended.
The overall attributes of all chess pieces increased by roughly thirty percent.
Domain activated.
Li Yao took a step and leaped into the teleportation vortex.
Dozens of seconds of teleportation time passed.
The same ruins, the same wind and sand.
Upon entering, Li Yao discovered a human figure lying in the distance.
Taking a closer look, Li Yao felt his stomach churn.
The death was too miserable.
It was completely unrecognizable as a human!
Flesh and blood were splayed outward.
It was as if countless tiny insects had torn the flesh from the body bit by bit.
It was hard to imagine
what kind of torture this strongest warrior of Xiong Guo, who guarded this place, had endured before death.
Li Yao’s gaze was icy.
Perception fully opened.
He scanned the surroundings like a radar.
"The Ruins of the Gods is a primordial dungeon."
"The professional inside is dead, yet the dungeon hasn't fallen, so this must have just happened."
Just as Mishaluo said,
an anomaly had indeed occurred here.
And the culprit was certainly watching from the shadows.
*Flap, flap.*
Just then,
the sound of dense wing-beating rang out.
The sand and dust in front were blown away.
"Crows?"
Dozens of crow-like creatures appeared in his field of vision.
"Human, you really did come in."
A hoarse, low voice sounded from among the crows.
The sound was like iron scraping against teeth, making one uncomfortable.
Li Yao could not tell which crow it came from.
He asked, "Who are you?"
The voice carried a hint of a smile. "Aren't you currently searching for my tracks?"
"The Secret Demon."
"You may call me"
"Swain."
