Chapter 530
He was also somewhat surprised by that suddenly appearing power.
However, he guessed that this should be the secret of how the transmigrator came to that world and even grew to his current state.
"Detected the appearance of a power influencing fate, exceeding the mission level. Do you wish to reclaim it?"
Just as Wu Feng was considering how to resolve the matter in that mission world, a mechanical voice rang in his ears; it was the voice of the Grocery Store.
"Reclaim that power."
Wu Feng laughed; he had originally been considering how to solve this problem.
Now that the Grocery Store had provided him with this method, it was perfect.
In the Primordial World during the Era of Witches and Demons.
"The seed is dead, so where did you, who killed the seed, come from?" That voice suddenly noticed Houtu, Laozi, and the others.
Just by seeing Houtu and the others, that power discovered their uniqueness.
Because they were somewhat incompatible with this world.
This meant they were not beings of this world.
On this point, Donghuang Taiyi, as a transmigrator, was better than them.
Because of the existence of the Devouring System, the transmigrator had previously completely integrated into this world; no one could detect that Donghuang Taiyi possessed an aura not belonging to this world.
But for Laozi, Houtu, and the others who entered here from another world, their auras were different.
It was only because they also possessed the power of the Grocery Store that the Heavenly Dao of this world did not target them.
Otherwise, they would have been targeted by the Heavenly Dao before even executing the mission.
Then, executing the mission would have been a joke.
"I am quite interested in your origins," that power said with a faint laugh.
"Oh no..."
The pupils of Laozi, Nuwa, Houtu, and the others constricted.
They could feel that incomparably terrifying power rapidly approaching them.
But what made them feel tragic was that, faced with this situation, they could not even break free from the suppression brought by that terrifying aura.
At this moment, they could only stand in place, unable to move.
That high-level power made it so that even if they wanted to resist, they were completely unable to do so.
At this moment.
They could be absolutely certain that the opponent's strength was likely truly an existence that transcended the Great Dao.
Only then could the opponent, with just a tiny wisp of power, make them unable to even perform an act of resistance.
"Let me take a look..."
That terrifying energy continuously extended toward Houtu and the others; at this moment, Houtu and the others felt their lives were about to come to an end.
Suddenly.
"Boom—"
From the originally calm and oppressive firmament, another aura descended; this aura was very plain, not feeling as terrifying as the energy of the Devouring System.
Yet it was this very energy.
That caused the Devouring System, which was about to probe Houtu and the others, to be imprisoned.
"Who exactly are you?"
This mysterious power issued such a question at the very end.
In an instant, the mysterious energy serving as the core of the Devouring System was crushed by the power of the Grocery Store, without even a shred of resistance.
A moment later.
The world returned to clarity once more, and that shocking, terrifying power vanished.
"Phew..."
Seeing this situation, Houtu, Nuwa, and the others breathed a sigh of relief; Hongjun was the same.
He understood that this terrifying power was perhaps the secret to how Donghuang Taiyi could change fate.
But how was that power erased by another terrifying power?
What kind of power was that?
At this moment, Hongjun appeared somewhat bewildered.
On this point, Houtu, Laozi, and the others were different.
They were very familiar with that understated power from just a moment ago.
That power was precisely the power of the Grocery Store, or rather, the power of the Senior.
It was the Senior who saved them.
"Ding, mission successfully completed, transmigrator slain. You now have ten breaths of time to prepare; you are about to return to your original world."
The voice of the Grocery Store rang in the ears of Laozi, Houtu, and the others.
Now they only had ten breaths of time.
Originally, they had intended to fleece this world like Tongtian.
But looking at it now, ten breaths of time was far from enough; one could only say this mission was very difficult.
"Teacher, we are about to take our leave," Laozi said to Hongjun.
"You are leaving?" Hongjun asked, coming back to his senses.
"Yes, Teacher, we can no longer stay in this world," Nuwa said.
"That power just now..." Hongjun hesitated for a moment.
"Teacher, Donghuang Taiyi is already dead; I believe the trajectory of this world will return to normal," Laozi smiled.
"Indeed," Hongjun also revealed a smile.
"Brothers..." Houtu's gaze stared into the distance, where Dijiang and the other Ancestral Witches were.
In the end, Houtu did not bid farewell to the Ancestral Witches of this world.
"Hum hum..."
The ten breaths of time passed quickly; a wisp of profound power enveloped Houtu and the others.
In an instant.
Houtu and the others vanished before the eyes of Hongjun and the others. ===== CHAPTER 532 =====
