Chapter 376: Chapter376-A Failed Scheme That Backfires
"We cannot underestimate him anymore!"
Divine Descendants had at least mastered one or more transcendent Laws and could freely travel through the Chaos star sea. They were completely incomparable to Divine Lord Grade powerhouses.
The top Divine Descendants could even wrestle with Oracle-grade beings.
"Die, Faustus!"
Five Divine Descendant Grade powerhouses attacked at the same time with perfect tacit understanding.
Their Sacred Arts were already incredibly close to the essence of Laws.
Every Sacred Art was a destructive strike at the Law level.
Daniel knew very well that Absolute Space-Time Domain could not affect transcendent Laws, so he decisively stopped using it.
He commanded his ninety-nine clones to surge toward the five Divine Descendants like a tide.
"Devour them!"
As Daniel’s strength rose, the karmic backlash he could endure also became stronger.
This meant that his current Law of Causality could already shake enemies far stronger than himself.
At the same time, his supreme sage rank also opened its devouring maw.
That vast sage rank was like a hungry giant whale, greedily gnawing away at the sage rank power of those Divine Descendant powerhouses.
The attacks of the Divine Descendants had already arrived.
Their attacks were incomparably sharp, heavily injuring many of the clones.
However, every injury suffered by a clone would backlash onto the attacker several times over.
And this was far from over.
"Explode!"
Daniel’s ten fingers moved constantly, like he was plucking the endless threads of causality in the void.
He entangled the causal threads of the five Divine Descendants before him with the fate threads of those Oracle-grade beings hidden in the dark, forcefully twisting the nature of causality and turning it into deadly consequences!
Boom!
Rumble!
Explosions rang out without end, like the collapse of the heavens.
Daniel’s clones self-destructed one after another. The world-destroying force of karmic backlash poured back like an invisible tide, instantly swallowing the Divine Descendant powerhouses, who were already in poor condition.
They finally experienced the taste Daniel’s past enemies had once tasted.
That helplessness of watching themselves being crushed by fate with their own eyes!
Pfft!
Pfft, pfft...!
The five Divine Descendant powerhouses spat blood at the same time, like crimson flowers blooming in the void.
They could clearly feel that their once incomparably stable sage ranks, the foundations they had polished over countless years, had now developed fine spiderweb-like cracks.
Their sage rank Origins had been injured.
Who knew how many eras of recuperation it would take for them to heal again?
They had come to seize Daniel’s supreme sage rank.
Yet now, not only had they gained nothing, they had suffered losses so severe that they were coughing blood.
In contrast, Daniel’s expression remained calm, as though he had merely brushed away a few specks of dust just now.
"Damn it... I wanted to skin the prey, but instead, I broke my own claws."
That Divine Descendant powerhouse was filled with regret, bitterness surging endlessly in his heart.
"Retreat! Faustus is not someone we can easily take down!"
One Divine Descendant had already begun thinking of retreat.
There was only one supreme sage rank, after all. They were afraid of losing everything.
Moreover, Faustus’s methods had made them feel a deep chill!
That fear rising from the depths of their souls was even harder to endure than the cracks in their sage ranks.
"Faustus... you are ruthless!"
Those five Divine Descendants were not fools.
Daniel was far too hard a bone to chew. Whoever bit him would break their own teeth.
What was more, behind them were Oracle-grade beings circling like vultures.
If they continued this battle, they would only be courting death.
"We cannot afford to lose. If you Oracle-grade beings want Faustus’s sage rank, then handle it yourselves!"
Seeing the Divine Descendants decisively choose to flee, Daniel snorted coldly.
His gaze crossed over their fleeing figures and looked into the deeper void.
"Oracle-grade..."
There was no fear in Daniel’s heart.
Between his fingers, he held a small sword.
It was the protective item left to him by the T7 Oracle-grade Chanelle, containing the power of that existence’s full-strength strike.
"If you are not afraid of death, then come."
Daniel looked into the depths of the void, his gaze burning like a torch.
Buzz, buzz, buzz—!
At the same time,
auras belonging to Oracle-grade beings ignited like ghostly flames in the dark night, cold and heavy.
Oracle-grade!
"Hunters?"
Daniel let out a low snort through his nose, his gaze sweeping across the void.
In the Endless Starsea, no Oracle-grade being was kind.
Otherwise, they could not have survived in that cruel abyss of the starsea.
Oracle-grade was a high position that could only be climbed to by stepping over countless corpses.
Daniel gripped that small sword tightly.
The killing move Chanelle had given him could only be used once.
Although it was a consumable item, the strike sealed within it was enough to completely shatter a great world!
And among the Oracle-grade beings gathered before him, the strongest was only T6.
The gap between each Rank of Oracle-grade was like a heavenly chasm.
If a T6 Oracle-grade were struck head-on by this small sword, they would also have to pay an extremely miserable price!
...
Above the ruins of the Astral Realm,
Oracle-grade auras flickered in and out of the void, like shadows beneath the surface of water, yet not a single Oracle-grade truly appeared.
Daniel remained alert at all times.
Through the Ivahpin Scroll, he continuously exchanged the Origin Crystals he had plundered for Golden Holy Mountain points, preparing at any moment to purchase one-time-use destructive consumables like the small sword.
He knew very clearly:
Absolute Space-Time Domain was currently only low-grade and could not affect Law power above transcendent.
And the full-strength strike of a T7 Oracle-grade was completely above transcendent Laws.
Therefore, he could not exploit a loophole through Absolute Space-Time Domain and infinitely copy the small sword.
Only after he collected more Universe Fragments in the future and raised Absolute Space-Time Domain to a higher grade would he be able to achieve that level.
"As long as I complete the Chaos Starfire mission, I can obtain information about a Universe Fragment. And my Chronoverse Prologue Codex can sense the location of fragments, so obtaining the fragment is almost inevitable."
"At that time, I can either comprehend a new space-time Sacred Art or have the chance to push Absolute Space-Time Domain to a higher level."
"The reward from this system mission is undoubtedly extremely practical."
Because the small sword could not be infinitely copied, Daniel had to prepare more trump cards.
As long as he had points, he could exchange for anything in the treasure vault of the Golden Holy Mountain.
There was no need to worry about lacking powerful trump cards.
...
"Faustus comes from the Golden Holy Mountain of the Myriad-Star Cosmos. I wonder what the Golden Holy Mountain’s Oracle-grade beings are planning?"
An Oracle-grade secretly communicated with the others.
"This time, only one T6 Oracle-grade from the Golden Holy Mountain came to the Astral Realm, along with several lower-tier companions."
"Their attitude is difficult to determine. If Faustus is willing to pay the price and issue a points mission, those Oracle-grade beings from the Golden Holy Mountain may very well stand on his side."
"Then are we supposed to just watch helplessly as he sits on a supreme sage rank?"
"No rush. Let those lower-tier Oracle-grade beings test him first."
"Agreed. Everyone contributes some resources and chooses a lower-tier Oracle-grade to try his luck. Let us see what Faustus’s true backing really is."
Every Oracle-grade was an old fox of the starsea.
Otherwise, they would never have lived this long.
They were unwilling to take risks themselves, so they pooled together a sum of resources and handed it to a lone Oracle-grade.
Lone Oracle-grade beings referred to wanderers without any faction or background.
This type of Oracle-grade had always believed in the law of the jungle. Each of them was ruthless and cruel, willing to use any means necessary to achieve their goals!
Very soon, the Tier 3 Oracle-grade Jervash gladly accepted this task!
