Divine Rune Awakening: Starting With Various Divine Runes and Dominating the World

Chapter 173: A Mysterious Attacker! Everyone Is in Trouble

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the sky above Universe City’s outskirts, a domineering stream of light rushed into the depths of the wilderness.

Wherever it went, the space shook and storms raged. Countless space beasts were crushed by the terrifying impact as soon as they flew into the sky.

The ones that could not dodge in time were swept by the aftershock, and they ended up either dead or injured.

In the sky, Gu Changqing couldn’t be bothered with the divine rune power left behind by the dead beasts. The strange runes on his body boosted his Ultimate mode armor, and his speed only grew faster.

Taotie was one of the earliest subordinates that Gu Changqing had trained. He wasn’t as carefree as Zhang Hu, who was sometimes improper. However, Taotie was never the slightest bit careless when it came to his orders.

Not only Taotie, but all of Gu Changqing’s subordinates were the same. Although master and servant were different roles, in his heart, they were already a part of his family.

Thus, he would not allow anything to happen to them.

He had to try to master Universe City’s laws of space. Otherwise, just traveling alone would be enough to give him a headache. Gu Changqing secretly made up his mind.

Passing through a ruined city, he casually pressed down. His terrifying divine rune power suppressed all of the beasts hiding in the city to death.

He continued flying forward.

Boom!

In the desolate plains far away, Taotie’s divine rune stirred up a monstrous devouring power that soared into the clouds.

“Kekeke…

A devilish laughter rang out, and a gray light beam descended from the sky, smashing fiercely onto the ground.

A sandstorm the size of a thousand feet stirred up in the wilderness, spreading in all directions.

Gu Changqing’s divine sense captured Taotie’s aura. However, the aura weakened in an instant, as if a flame in the wind that could be extinguished at

any moment.

With just one attack, Taotie, who was so powerful, was actually seriously injured to the point of facing death.

Gu Changqing’s divine sense tried to lock onto the existence that was attacking Taotie, but after one attack, that existence seemed to have lost interest and disappeared without a trace.

Noticing Taotie’s life rapidly disappearing, Gu Changqing gave up the idea of chasing after the beast and waved his hand to disperse the sandstorm.

In a circular pit that was tens of thousands of feet wide, Taotie was lying in a pool of blood with injuries all over his body. His armor was broken, and his exposed body seemed to have been burned by divine rune power that contained poisonous flames.

“You’re courting death!”

Looking at Taotie’s miserable state, Gu Changqing was infuriated. In the pit, huge rocks and flying sand hovered as if they were weightless, forming a strange picture.

“Power of Yin and Yang, Life and Death Reversal!”

The Tai Chi Diagram behind Gu Changqing turned from clockwise to counterclockwise. The Yin-Yang power of life to death reversed into death to life.

Mystic lights flowed into Taotie’s body from the Tai Chi Diagram’s reversal, repairing his injured body. The Yang power continuously dispelled the poisonous flame in his body. Soon, the unconscious Taotie slowly opened his eyes.

“Boss! I’m sorry to disappoint you!”

The moment he woke up, he saw Gu Changqing who was healing him. Taotie couldn’t help but shed tears.

Gu Changqing nodded. At this time, there was no need for an explanation. Otherwise, Taotie would fall into self-blame and be unable to calm himself.

Soon, under the Yin-Yang power’s treatment, Taotie’s injuries were almost healed. However, he was still a little weak after suffering a serious injury. At this moment, a powerful force suddenly appeared where Qi Yuna was.

“I’m being attacked!”

Qi Yuna activated her divine rune. In an instant, black fog covered the sky, and her figure became faintly discernible.

She was still within Gu Changqing’s divine sense range. As long as she could stall for time and wait for her boss to arrive, it would be fine.

However, Qi Yuna still underestimated the strength and brutality of the attacker. A violent light beam directly broke through Qi Yuna’s black fog.

When Gu Changqing arrived, he saw Qi Yuna severely injured and lying in a circular pit on the verge of death.

His eyes were like the Nine Nether Ice. Attacking his subordinates within his divine sense was no different from beating people up under his eyes. Gu Changqing activated the Tai Chi Diagram and saved Qi Yuna in the same way.

When Qi Yuna recovered, he asked, “Tell me, what was it that ambushed you?”

“At first, I thought it was a ferocious beast. But when it attacked me and left, I saw it clearly. It was a Divine Runemaster, but he was a strong one!”

Following beside Gu Changqing, Qi Yuna naturally knew how strong the former was. Therefore, Gu Changqing naturally wouldn’t underestimate an enemy who she claimed to be powerful.

However, why did the attacker suddenly leave after the attack?

This was somewhat puzzling. It was precisely because of his departure that Taotie and Qi Yuna’s lives were saved.

What was this creature trying to do?

Gu Changqing continued to heal Qi Yuna while paying attention to Zhang Hu and the others’ movements in his divine sense. At this moment, they were all moving closer to him.

All of a sudden, he frowned. His body shot out in an instant and sped in Vermilion Bird’s direction. In his perception just now, she seemed to be the furthest away from everyone.

It was the same situation as when Taotie and Qi Yuna were attacked.

However, when he arrived, Vermilion Bird was also lying on the ground like the previous two people, half dead.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he concentrated on treating her. That attacker was already on his must-kill list.

The ones who hadn’t been attacked yet were Monkey King, Zhao Feng, Wu Rui, and Zhang Hu. As for Huang Di, he was no longer within the Gu Changqing’s divine sense range.

Despite that, he wasn’t worried about Huang Di at all. If even the latter was no match for the attacker, then his worries were unnecessary.

The person furthest away from everyone now was Zhao Feng. After sensing this, Gu Changqing put down Vermillion Bird’s nearly-recovered body and flew toward Zhao Feng.

As if knowing that he would be the next target, Zhao Feng immediately activated his divine rune.

Swish!

Although the Immortal Bird and the Flame Dragon God armor were on him, he still looked around cautiously.

“Kekeke…

Soon, evil demonic laughter rang out. It sounded extremely strange in the desolate and empty wasteland.

“Die!”

The instant the space rippled, Zhao Feng locked onto the attacker’s position and sent a surge of fire toward him.

The next second, the ambusher disappeared into the air.

By the time Zhao Feng reacted, grayish-white claws were already reaching for his neck.

His pupils constricted as he circulated his divine runes’ powers in an attempt to dodge this attack, but he was still a step too slow.

The attacker’s cold claws had already touched the skin on his neck. In an instant, he felt as if his entire body had frozen up along with his thoughts..
