Chapter 652 383: Power of Laws

The Mecha Warriors around the battlefield and the soldiers aboard the Cosmic Battleships erupted in cheers at the sight.

Each of them stared with a mixture of awe and curiosity at the mysterious figure in the distance, a man who could travel through the void of space unaided.

"Extraordinary Humans are only at the Initial Tier. I heard they're just Genetically Modified Warriors who can't even fly."

"He's definitely not a Genetically Modified Warrior. If they were this powerful, the world would've descended into chaos long ago."

The soldiers whispered amongst themselves. With the pressure from the Insect Race gone, their moods lightened in an instant.

RUMBLE!

Just as the men had a moment to leisurely whisper about Zhao Rui's origins, a series of spatial rifts of varying sizes unexpectedly tore open nearby.

Massive insects began to frantically pour out of them.

'Interesting!'

With a flicker of his Divine Thought, Zhao Rui sent a Divine Soul message to the commander of the battleship.

"He wants us to retreat?"

"Retreat! Do as he says."

"Alright!"

The fleet commander immediately issued the order for all warriors outside the Space City, whether they were Mecha Warriors or Starship Warriors, to return.

Though they didn't understand, they did as they were told.

In just a few moments, Zhao Rui was the only one left outside the space base, standing all alone against the tide of insects pouring forth.

Before, there had only been a single spatial rift. Now, there were a dozen or more.

The members of the Insect Race emerging from some of the giant rifts had already evolved, sporting humanoid carapaces. They were tall, imposing, and incredibly fast.

In terms of power, they already far surpassed the Giant Spirit Mecha.

'Impressive. They can even evolve to mimic appearances.'

'I just wonder, can you mimic me?'

Zhao Rui was very curious.

It had always been him copying the Martial Arts of others. He never expected to run into a kindred spirit here.

With a flicker of his form, Zhao Rui's True Dharma Body manifested, transforming him into a colossal giant hundreds of meters tall.

His enormous body towered motionlessly, like a small asteroid, exerting immense pressure on all who saw it.

HISS! HISS!

Soon, all the insects surged toward Zhao Rui. In the blink of an eye, they had submerged him in an insectoid sea.

Zhao Rui let out a great laugh. As the True Qi around his body flared, the insects turned to ash and vanished without a trace.

Since the smaller ones were no match, the larger ones naturally stepped forward.

Soon, dozens of giant beetles charged over, followed by several humanoid ones.

These beetles no longer relied on biological instinct, but had learned hit-and-run tactics and ranged attacks.

Zhao Rui watched them move. With a point of his finger, the previously aggressive insects froze in place, as if their acupoints had been sealed.

Utterly still.

Zhao Rui glanced at one of the spatial rifts and sneered, "Not getting a good enough view hiding back there, are you?"

He reached out and, with a single motion, yanked a giant worm several kilometers long out from the spatial rift.

The giant worm thrashed its body wildly.

Unfortunately for it, its struggles were completely harmless to Zhao Rui.

Its head constantly emitted Divine Soul signals, which seemed to possess some kind of Power of Laws.

Shockingly, it was able to copy the knowledge transmitted via the Divine Soul.

A glint appeared in Zhao Rui's eyes. 'What kind of Power of Laws involves replication?'

'Time, space, causality, the five elements, Primordial... '

'None of the Laws I can think of are related to replication.'

With a flicker of his Divine Thought, Zhao Rui sent a thread of Divine Soul Power shooting into the giant worm's brain and began to carefully investigate the source of its power.
