Chapter 82: The Desperate World
As the reputation of the Tianyu Clan left everyone shocked, in another space-time, in a pink apartment room, Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes.
Under the continuous flow of evolutionary energy, the injuries to his broken true body had finally healed by seventy percent, leaving only the deep wound on his chest.
That wound, Abyssal Obliteration, was the culmination of all the power of Tarolya, its might comparable to the rules themselves. Even the barrier power fused with divine abilities and absolute defenses was torn apart.
Moreover, this world was in the end of the dharma era, where transcendent power was suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth. Even the innate demon god’s ability to draw energy from the Void was hindered, allowing the absorbed energy to only sustain his formidable physical consumption, which prevented Chen Chu from restoring the exhausted divine power of the rules. He could only rely on his blood and qi to gradually cleanse and obliterate the remaining effects.
However, none of this mattered to Chen Chu.
With a physique comparable to a titan in its early stages, he was more than capable of suppressing everything in this world.
This was the advantage of having a powerful body; even if he accidentally found himself in such a low-magic world, he wouldn’t fear a sudden drop in strength or being suppressed by enemies who had once been able to crush him.
“Next, it's time to explore this world and find a way to resolve ‘time,’ as well as that dragon of time…” Chen Chu pondered as he slowly stood up.
The dragon of time had also been swept up in the previous time storm; he just didn’t know where it had been taken. He hoped it was alright; after all, it was Seistia’s father.
If something were to happen, Chen Chu would feel a bit embarrassed.
“Mr. Chen... you’ve emerged from seclusion.”
Just as Chen Chu opened the door and stepped out, in the living room, Shifei Tong, dressed in a red long robe and tight jeans, quickly stood up from the sofa.
Looking at the seemingly sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl with black hair who was not wearing battle attire, Chen Chu nodded slightly: “Yes, I’ve come out. Where’s your sister?”
Seeing the calm expression of the black-haired youth, Shifei Tong’s face slightly flushed with a hint of nervousness: “Sister is outside teaching everyone to practice. If Mr. Chen has any matters, you can talk to me.”
“By the way, do you want to eat something, Mr. Chen? We still have a bit of rice, canned food, and some dried dragon meat.”
Earlier, because of Chen Chu’s terrifying power that had destroyed half a city with a single strike, as well as his nearly shattered face, everyone had been too shocked to react.
Now, looking at the black-haired youth clad in a white T-shirt and gray casual pants, with an upright posture and a face like jade, almost perfectly handsome, Shifei Tong’s heart raced, feeling a sense of infatuation.
He was just too handsome; how could there be such a good-looking man in the world? He was a thousand times more attractive than the big stars on television.
Especially that indescribable noble aura, like a god high above, with eyes bright as stars, profound and indifferent—he was just so cool.
However, despite the excitement in her heart like a lovesick girl, Shifei Tong’s expression remained composed, with only a slight blush on her cheeks.
After all, she had experienced the apocalypse and fought for her life against mutated monsters as a body refiner.
Looking at the girl who was staring at him, Chen Chu said淡淡: “I’m not hungry for now; I plan to go out for a walk.”
“Mr. Chen, let me guide you.”
“...Sure.” Chen Chu nodded; he indeed needed a guide to understand the situation here.
Although he had learned some basic information about this world through the soul controller Shirou, those details were rather superficial.
Opening the apartment door, Chen Chu’s eyes brightened.
They were situated halfway up a mountain cave, with buildings and rooms constructed along the surrounding mountain walls.
