Chapter 562: Tyrannical, All Disperse

Roar!

An even more intense roar erupted from the air, shaking the heat haze beneath the ground so violently that Yang Yan almost had to release his Ninja Arts.

This kind of sound wave was absolutely abnormal; it was no longer a roar that a creature of the natural world could emit.

【You have been attacked by a Meme: Curse (Desire) infected (early stage). Based on the disparity in Spirit attributes between both parties, you have obtained the following information】

【You have suffered a sonic attack from an infected individual; vestibular organs damaged, eardrums ruptured…】

Yang Yan held his breath and glanced at the panel.

Meme: Curse (Desire) infected?

What kind of ghost is that!

There was no prompt regarding Reincarnator information; either the opponent's Spirit attribute completely crushed his own, or this Monster truly did not belong to the control of the Reincarnators.

Yang Yan's mind tightened once again.

Moreover, he noticed that the lightning that had just fallen from the sky did not appear this time.

Did Lord Tao Baibai not notice this Monster?

No, that possibility was unlikely; his call for help was immediately responded to by Lord Tao Baibai, which meant he had already entered his perception range.

After Yang Yan escaped the pursuit of Yun Wujiu, his thinking became much calmer; even though he was somewhat dizzy at the moment, he quickly grasped where the problem lay.

These Monsters were permitted to exist by Lord Tao Baibai!

Or rather, it might be that these Monsters were created by Tao Baibai himself, to prevent ordinary people from approaching this 【Paradise】 that belonged exclusively to Reincarnators!

Yang Yan also harbored some consciousness of the 【Reincarnator Supremacy Theory】, so seeing these Monsters "surrounding" the outside of Paradise City, he subconsciously assumed it was Lord Tao Baibai's deliberate way of excluding ordinary people.

Although Bai Cangshu did not have that consideration, in reality, the 【Meme: Curse (Desire)】 would indeed become an isolation zone to a certain extent, if these mutants were not cleared out.

Yang Yan traveled over two hundred meters from beneath the ground using Earth Style, and only after feeling the increasingly solid foundation beneath the ground did he return to the surface.

The Monster behind him let out an even more violent roar; the decibel level of that sound had exceeded the range that humans could endure.

Yang Yan turned back and threw dozens of Shuriken, which whistled as they buried themselves into the Monster's body.

Pfft, pfft, pfft...

The Monster roared and fell to the ground.

Yang Yan's heart stirred; although this Monster looked terrifying and possessed the ability of sonic attacks, its defensive power was quite weak.

He was thinking about whether to go and check, but saw the Monster sway a few times and stand up again, the wound on its neck torn open by his Shuriken also healing rapidly.

"This is... High-speed Regeneration?!"

"Perhaps there is also Immortality!"

His eyes lit up, and he formed seals with his hands.

【Shadow Clone Technique】!

Yang Yan was a relatively pure "Ninja" enhanced Reincarnator; besides the Chakra energy system and the Ninja Arts from Naruto, he had previously enhanced some Ninja Arts from other systems.

His combat power could not be considered strong, but his reconnaissance and escape abilities were quite good.

The Shadow Clones ran rapidly toward the Monster with their hands hanging behind them from both sides.

Whoosh!

Icy cold air erupted violently from the dense forest in the distance; that small river now presented a situation like a dam bursting, with a large amount of river water rushing out from the forest accompanied by the cold air.

It actually had a bit of the momentum of a surging glacier melt.

Before the two Shadow Clones could arrive, the Monster was swallowed by the icy river; the next moment, the two Shadow Clones dodged several times, but still fell into the icy river because there was no place to step.

In an instant, they exploded into smoke and disappeared.

Yang Yan's main body turned and ran without hesitation; there was an aura in that cold air that he was familiar with and feared, only compared to before, Yun Wujiu's power seemed even more violent at this moment!

Yang Yan sprinted rapidly toward the city in a ninja-running posture, with the icy river surging wildly behind him.

The cold air was even more like a maggot on a tarsal bone, getting closer and closer.

Fortunately, that simple and heavy 【Paradise】 was not far from him; his figure shot directly into a collapsed wall like lightning, stepped onto the top of a shop, moved constantly, and then looked back at the icy river rushing over, preparing to see whether to climb that high tower depending on the situation.

Sizzle! The violently churning thunderclouds were almost touching the top of the Black Tower at this moment; suddenly, a blue-white lightning flash burst out from within in an instant.

The front of the icy river exploded violently, revealing the white-haired man hiding within.

At this moment, Yun Wujiu's eyes were pitch black, and his entire body was radiating intense cold air and spiritual power.

Yang Yan frowned; that state was definitely not normal.

Sure enough, after Yun Wujiu was blocked by the lightning strike, he did not stop his Footwork, and the cold air spread again, attacking toward the city.

Yang Yan also became nervous; Yun Wujiu was also a Title-level Reincarnator, and his strength seemed to have increased again at this moment. Although Lord Tao Baibai was definitely stronger than the opponent, Lord Tao Baibai had not appeared yet after all...

Yang Yan prepared to continue running first.

Sizzle~ Bang!

Like a bolt from the blue, the sky suddenly brightened, and only then did the terrifying sound explode in the air.

Yang Yan's already-pierced eardrums felt as if countless needles were pricking the inside at this moment; the intense tinnitus made him unable to control his center of gravity at all, and he fell directly from the shop to the ground.

When his vision returned to normal, he only saw the icy river cut off, the cold air dissipated, and the charred Yun Wujiu kneeling outside Paradise.

Wisps of blue smoke rose from his pitch-black body, his right arm had already been blown off, and there were many granulation tissues wriggling on the wound, but the recovery speed was obviously much slower than that Monster just now.

Yang Yan could be considered a Reincarnator who had seen many mission worlds, and he would also pay special attention to information in various works on weekdays.

At this moment, he also realized that Yun Wujiu, like that Monster, was probably in some kind of infected state and possessed special recovery abilities.

But that kind of recovery power could not reach the level of Immortality, and it could not be immune to damage of the fire and lightning type, so after suffering the lightning strike, the severed limb did not regenerate, and the physical healing speed was also extremely slow.

He licked his lips, and greed arose in his heart.

If he were to cast 【Fire Style: Dragon Flame Technique】 at this moment, it was highly likely that he could kill Yun Wujiu in this state!

Given the gap in strength between himself and Yun Wujiu, and since it was a kill in the real world, there was a high probability that a Scarlet Drop Card would appear!

Greed rose in Yang Yan's heart, his hands were raised, and he was about to start forming seals in an instant, but the next moment.

Boom!

It was like the eruption of a hurricane.

A violent aura, like a mountain calling and a sea roaring, surged from The Tower behind him.

That aura was so savage, far more terrifying than a level-twelve hurricane; for a moment, he felt as if he were standing naked on the ocean, facing a towering Tatsumaki head-on.

The extremely domineering aura instantly submerged his Spirit.

Yang Yan trembled all over, his eyes rolling back to white; he couldn't even form hand seals, let alone move, and if not for the constant, terrible stinging in his eardrums, he suspected he would have fainted outright.

【You have been affected by a special ability. Based on the disparity in Spirit between both parties, you have obtained the following information:】

【You have been affected by Conqueror's Haki; you have entered a state of trembling, and your movement speed and spellcasting ability are severely affected...】

Conqueror's Haki...

Black and red lightning swept continuously from the top of the tower, brushing past Yang Yan's body, and he collapsed instantly.

Outside the city, countless strange roars also turned panicked in an Instant; even those Monsters felt the terror of this tyrannical aura and began to flee.

Nearby, Yun Wujiu's hair danced wildly backward, his freezing aura vanished in an Instant, and after his eyes trembled several times, the blackness faded, leaving a look of lingering fear on his face.

He did not know how long that intense Conqueror's Haki lasted—perhaps only an Instant, or perhaps it lasted a long time—Yang Yan only knew he remained frozen in place for a long while, until Yun Wujiu's voice rang in his ears, and he startled back to his senses.

"Consider yourself lucky. Since Tao Baibai has promised to provide shelter for Reincarnators entering Paradise, we shall settle our accounts in the next mission world."

Yun Wujiu did not use his ability again; he simply froze his wounds, turned, walked into an Empty shop, and rested on his own.

At the same time, he began using his phone to contact others.

"That guy escaped into 【Paradise】. Yes, it's the city of... Tao Baibai."

"I understand, I will wait for you all to arrive."
