More powerful beings from the Heavenly Court have descended.
Xiao Mu, who was fully engaging his Escape Art to return to his dwelling, suddenly stopped his Escape Light and stood still to gaze westward.
The momentum of the entity descending just now was so vast that even Emperor Taija used the Book of Destiny to bolster it—a figure of earth-shattering importance, undoubtedly at least a True God.
"Forget it, there's no need to go back now. Time is of the essence, the human world is undergoing great changes, I should seal the Divine Treasures I've just obtained right here."
Xiao Mu quickly found a place to hide and used the Five Elements Power to set up a simple Great Array to seal his presence. He then began to empower the Divine Treasures he had obtained not long ago with the King's Authority Sealing Technique.
This time, he had obtained a substantial number of Divine Treasures, including the complete set of Thunder God's Treasures from Meng Xuan and the complete set of death judgment Divine Treasures from Perfected Gu Ya, as well as the life and death register of the city god of the Heavenly Court and the Xuan Yang Flame Gold Crown, totaling twelve pieces.
"My King's Authority Sealing Technique is nearing its ultimate heights. Once these twelve Divine Treasures are distributed, they will surely elevate the Sealing Technique to an unimaginable level."
Faced with a formidable enemy, Xiao Mu had no joy in his heart. He collected his emotions, sat down cross-legged, and began to empower each of the numerous Divine Treasures with the King's Authority Sealing Technique.
As his strength increased, the speed of his empowerment also became faster. Now, sealing a Divine Treasure only took a moment.
The supreme will of the Heavenly Emperor infused into the Divine Treasures, one by one, each being marked with Xiao Mu's imprint.
Hours later, Xiao Mu stood up with ease and once more gazed westward, "The empowerment is complete, these Divine Treasures can now be handed over to Senior Zun and the others to enhance their strength."
"Senior Huang Yuan's Divine Treasures can be completed, team leader Zhu Fuchen's Divine Treasures can be completed, Senior Zun's set is missing one piece, and Yu Wen'en, what a pity. It's too difficult to obtain the Treasures of the star of calamity; too few Divine Spirits have descended from the Fate System, and artifacts related to fate are rare."
Xiao Mu scrutinized the situation in the west and, discerning the retreat path of the Mutated Beings from the human world, activated his Escape Art and turned into Five-colored Light in pursuit.
"Who's there? Stop your Escape Light!"
The Mutated Beings retreating from the human world were extremely vigilant. Upon seeing Xiao Mu's Five-colored Light sweeping in, several Divine Spirit realm Mutated Beings immediately went up to block him.
"It's Xiao Mu, let him come over."
Suddenly, the clear sound of a telepathic message from Zhou Xuanmen echoed within the crowd.
"Yes!"
The guards, recognizing it was Xiao Mu, opened a path, "Please!"
"Thank you!"
Xiao Mu accelerated his Escape Art and hurried forward, weaving through the crowd. In no time, he reached Zhou Xuanmen.
"Xiao Mu pays respects to Senior Zhou."
"No need for formalities!" Zhou Xuanmen lifted his hand, gesturing Xiao Mu to come closer to talk.
At this moment, not only were Zun, Huang Yuan, Zhu Fuchen, and Yu Wen'en by Zhou Xuanmen's side, but other strong beings among the Mutated Beings had also arrived.
"Why have you only arrived now?"
As soon as Xiao Mu approached, Zhou Xuanmen immediately asked.
He was aware of Xiao Mu and Zun's counter-scheme against the Heavenly Court, but found it strange why Xiao Mu did not come along with Zun and the others.
"I just dealt with a small matter and came late."
Xiao Mu deftly skirted around the issue, lightly shifting the topic.
"Xiao Xiao, long time no see!"
A greeting suddenly came from the side.
"Long time no see, Xiao Xiao. Your strength is far superior to ours. Seeing you now and thinking of the past, I feel ashamed!"
"Brother Xiao, it's been a long time!"
Several people greeted Xiao Mu at the same time. He looked around and recognized them all as acquaintances: Xu Qianwu, Fang Ying, Zhao Yaogu, and others.
Everyone's strength had grown, almost all reaching the late stage of the Divine Spirit realm, and some had even reached the Peak.
With the Heavenly Court's recent large-scale invasion, the human world Alliance also became anxious and dispensed a vast amount of resources to help the Mutated Beings increase their strength, with many experiencing a significant boost.
For Divine Spirits like Xu Qianwu, who already possessed a Spirit Tablet feat, they were particularly fostered by the Headquarters.
"Elder Xu, Elder Fang, Brother Zhao, greetings to you all!"
Xiao Mu saluted the crowd.
"Xiao Xiao, weren't you at the village? Why did you suddenly come here?"
Xu Qianwu was the most curious about Xiao Mu's affairs. As soon as the greetings were over, he eagerly asked about Xiao Mu's reasons for coming.
Xiao Mu responded indifferently, "Not long ago, Senior Zun, Senior Huang, and I killed a few Heavenly Court Mutated Beings and seized some Treasures. I've come specifically to deliver these Treasures to Senior Zun and the others."
Treasures!
Xu Qianwu was stunned.
Fang Ying, Zhao Yaogu, and the others were also momentarily stunned. Delivering Treasures? Are you doing this on purpose? Knowing full well that we all lack Divine Treasures, and still delivering them in front of us?
How cruel!
No Divine Treasures, yet deliberately delivering them in our presence?
A wave of resentment surged in everyone's hearts. That was too much!
But then, they couldn't help but curiously gaze at Xiao Mu, wondering if when he spoke of delivering Divine Treasures, there would be one for everyone?
"I thought you ran off with the Treasures, haha!"
The voice of Huang Yuan interrupted everyone's thoughts; he couldn't wait to speak, eagerly reaching out to Xiao Mu and bursting into laughter, "Xiao boy, hand them over. I don't ask for much, just give me the Eight Tribulations Silver Wind Boots. With them, my authority as Old Huang will be complete."
"The boots are here, please receive them, Senior Huang."
Xiao Mu promptly took out the Eight Tribulations Silver Wind Boots and handed them to Huang Yuan.
"What a fantastic Treasure, I've finally got you, haha! Today, my authority is complete, and I've truly become the Thunder God!" Amidst Huang Yuan's laughter, he couldn't wait to unleash his Divine Spirit semblance, passing the Eight Tribulations Silver Wind Boots to it for use.
