Chapter 1562: Chapter 1562

Seeing Du You flying over, the Lion Person didn’t even consider running away. Wielding a massive axe, he swung it fiercely at Du You, sending a domineering golden aura slashing forward.

Along the path it passed, the chaotic Laws were split apart right through the middle.

"As expected, he was hiding his strength. Probably around level 63, but his power feels equivalent to an 8-star. I wonder how that fares in this world," Du You muttered, raising his hand without dodging to cast a Yuan Power Shield.

The Yuan Power Shield blocked the attack, and Du You immediately assessed the opponent’s strength.

In front of him, the Lion Person was no match for him, though his strength was still commendable. From Du You’s perspective, the Lion Person was someone he could kill within a short timeframe.

The Lion Person, seeing his attack blocked, didn’t hesitate. He charged forward, his axe swinging wildly with reckless abandon. Soon, a golden sea formed around them, as if they were in the midst of a turbulent storm.

Any ordinary person caught in it would be shredded into pieces instantly, leaving nothing behind.

But Du You was unfazed. As long as he upheld the Yuan Power Shield, he could easily withstand the Lion Person’s assault. One by one, he began launching Shadow Spirit Light Balls. Each one forced the Lion Person to scramble in defense.

Within moments of combat, the Lion Person realized that the human before him far outmatched his strength.

Yet the Lion Person didn’t back down. He continued fighting, and as the battle progressed, the clash of their energy grew increasingly intense.

"As I thought, battles in this world indeed make the Laws clearer. What on earth happened to this world?" Du You pondered.

Not far away, the two sisters observed the battle intently. As the fight raged on, the Laws in the surrounding area became increasingly distinct. Although still chaotic, they could discern valuable aspects.

The closer these Laws aligned with one’s own essence, the sharper they grew in clarity in this place.

For those who sought enlightenment in the Heaven and Earth Laws, places might offer little benefit. But for someone like Du You, who directly integrated Laws into himself, developing personal Laws, the myriad sensations of various Laws here were immensely valuable.

In other words, once Professionals reach the final stages, they condense their unique Laws and no longer follow existing templates of other Laws.

Locked in combat, Du You entered a peculiar state of realization, even forgetting the purpose of his arrival.

After some time, Du You finally snapped out of it. The battle had been immensely rewarding, but Du You had no intention of letting his opponent off. Just as others often said, in high-level worlds, there were no alliances.

Since they were enemies, there was no need to overthink things. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩

Anyone who could come to this world, even if only at tier-seven, must hail from an extraordinary world in the first place.

For any world to connect with this one, it would need to be at least tier-eight or higher. Worlds at tier-eight already possessed the qualifications to rival Earth’s world.

With his mind set, Du You showed no hesitation, immediately unleashing a Soul Pierce attack. Invisible to the naked eye and nearly imperceptible to the mind, the attack shot forth in an instant, striking directly at the Lion Person.

Although the Lion Person couldn’t see or sense anything, he felt a vague stabbing pain surging toward him. Unfortunately, the attack was too fast. Still engrossed in his battle realization, the Lion Person failed to react in time and was struck.

"Ah—!" The Lion Person let out a miserable cry, marking the first sound he had made since the battle began.

Du You didn’t bother concerning himself with the identity of this unknown opponent. Another Soul Pierce landed, severely damaging the Lion Person’s soul. The crippling pain nearly caused him to drop his weapon as his trembling hands struggled to regain control. At this moment, Du You wasted no time, unleashing multiple rounds of Disintegration Spells and Soul Pierce attacks.

The Lion Person, his soul further wrecked, became visibly sluggish, staring at Du You in terror.

He couldn’t fathom how a mere human, just slightly stronger than him, had suddenly become so formidable. These techniques didn’t even appear before; was this truly something a tier-seven Professional could achieve?

But he had no chance to dwell on it. The Disintegration Spells struck his body, each one leaving additional fractures. Under the dual collapse of body and soul, the Lion Person emitted one final scream before succumbing to his fate.

Even his soul had no chance of escape. After his death, the Lion Person’s energy rapidly condensed, forming a Law Crystal—a culmination of his divine essence over a lifetime.

Stepping forward, Du You gathered the items before him and signaled the two sisters to leave quickly. The disturbances from the battle might have drawn attention from others nearby. It would be disastrous to be ambushed.

After traveling a considerable distance away, Du You finally began inspecting his spoils.

"Strange. Where’s the treasure chest? Isn’t there supposed to be a chest drop for every tier-seven or higher kill? And why isn’t there any other loot?" Du You expressed his puzzlement. The usual rewards were conspicuously absent.

Lin Yucha flipped through an earlier guidebook before pointing to a section. "Master, look at this. Due to the chaotic Laws in this world and the absence of a world will, there are no tasks or loot drops here. In this world, combat relies solely on hunting and fighting. But these gains aren’t bad, right?"

Lin Yucha gestured toward the axe in Du You’s hand. The battle spoils also included the deceased divine being’s body, which were exceptional materials. Considering the overall harvest, the gains were hardly inferior to typical loot drops.

Still, Du You couldn’t help but feel frustrated at the missing rewards; it all seemed a little odd.

Shaking his head, Du You sighed in mild annoyance. He was indeed being a little greedy. The benefits gained from each battle were remarkable, not something to dismiss so easily. If given the opportunity, he wouldn’t hesitate to venture here again.

"Huh? This weapon... it’s actually a Divine Artifact." Du You suddenly noticed the extraordinary nature of the weapon in his hands.

The axe contained a concentrated, potent Law energy—not from its material alone, but the same Law power the Lion Person had previously wielded. This weapon had clearly been forged by fragmenting and applying one’s own Law comprehension—a true Divine Artifact.

"No wonder that guy’s combat ability was so high, yet his other attributes were weak. Turns out it was all thanks to this weapon." Du You began piecing together the rationale behind the Lion Person’s seemingly unbalanced prowess.

Unfortunately, since the weapon was a Divine Artifact, it would be useless unless paired with a suitable individual. For Professionals like Du You, this weapon was little more than a useless appendage.
