Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle
Chapter 697 697: 780,000 Law Cores! (Seeking Follow-Up Reading)
A series of notification sounds rang out.
In Xiao Ye's system space, one Law Core Fragment after another appeared.
There were fragments of every Attribute—Space, Five Elements, Phantom Spirit, Ice, Thunder… and so on. The Holy Attribute made up the majority.
And the Template Adjuster's extraction function was still operating continuously.
So long as any angel fell on the battlefield, Supreme Power would extract a Law Core Fragment.
The Ancestral Empress was still analyzing the situation,
"The Beast Hunting Legion had a slight upper hand, but when it came to high-tier combat power, the Ten Great Generals plus Shangguan Hong versus the Angel King and both Wing Guards, they absolutely dominated."
"All ten Generals were high-level Sovereign Realm, and Shangguan Hong was even at Tier Ten of the Sovereign Realm."
"The Angel King was at Tier Ten of the Sovereign Realm, and both Guards were high-level Sovereign Realm."
"No matter the numbers or individual combat power, the angels couldn't compare to Shangguan Hong plus the Ten Great Generals."
Time slowly passed.
Half an hour went by.
The battlefield situation entered a tense stalemate.
Both sides were fighting with full force, their eyes bloodshot with rage.
Half the soldiers in both the Beast Hunting Legion and Angel Legion were dead or wounded, and among the angels' top-tier fighters, the Left Wing Angel's ice wing was completely severed, the Right Wing Angel was gravely wounded and had lost all combat power, and the Angel King himself was dead tired.
*If this brawl kept going back and forth, it'd definitely last ten days or even half a month.*
But right from the start, they'd all gone all out, using their most powerful Divine Skills, burning through their strength.
Shangguan Hong wasn't worried about losing, because with Xiao Ye and the Ancestral Empress standing by, he had the freedom to fight with his full power from the start.
The Angel King was forced to respond, with no choice but to give it his all.
Xiao Ye glanced at his system space.
It already held over half a million Law Core Fragments, with all kinds of Attributes.
He stood up and spoke,
"It's our turn, let's end this war."
"The Law Core Fragments, we've basically gathered enough too."
The Ancestral Empress's beautiful eyes lit up, "How many do you have?"
Xiao Ye did a quick calculation—three Law Core Fragments could be merged into one Law Core, and with 560,000 fragments, that was enough for about 180,000 Law Cores.
He smiled, "We've already harvested 180,000 Law Cores."
The Ancestral Empress's wide, beautiful eyes stared round in shock,
"That many?"
"I thought it was just a few thousand, but you've actually collected 180,000!"
"Damn! You're basically here to stock up!"
*Being able to mass-harvest Law Cores—in this universe, probably only the Human Emperor could pull this off.*
Xiao Ye waved his hand, "That's nothing. Most of the Angel Legion were blasted into pieces—otherwise, I could've extracted even more."
"In a little bit, we'll strike and wipe out the entire Angel Legion."
"After all this killing, the Beast Hunting Legion deserves a break."
The Ancestral Empress nodded.
The two of them left the war chariot and rose into the sky above the Starry Battlefield.
Xiao Ye unleashed Spatial Imprisonment and the Spatial Absorption Divine Skill.
Vast Power of Space descended.
It enveloped the entire Starry Battlefield.
He lifted his hand, and every one of the 600,000 surviving angels was instantly immobilized—body, divine sense, and soul locked in place—and, from across the void, drawn directly into the world within his palm.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The Beast Hunting Legion watched as all the angels they were locked in battle with suddenly froze up—then disappeared without a trace.
They were all stunned.
They could feel that mighty power of Space.
They quickly figured this was the work of the Human Emperor, whom even the Domain Lord and Ten Great Generals revered.
"Look, His Highness the Human Emperor is above us—he's making his move!"
"Damn, the Human Emperor really is invincible. With a wave of his hand, he wipes out hundreds of thousands—badass!"
"So terrifying! His Highness the Human Emperor is even fiercer than our Generals!"
"For real, no wonder the Domain Lords are so respectful. With power like this, you can't help but bow down!"
Under the awe-filled gazes of all around,
Xiao Ye stood high above like a true war god, with one hand seeming to hold the whole world in his grasp.
And that was really the case—inside Xiao Ye's world within his palm,
The Angel Legion soldiers each wore grave faces, terror surfacing in their hearts.
*They felt a sense of helplessness unlike anything before.*
From where they stood, Xiao Ye loomed above as a colossal demonic god from another world, looking down on them from the heavens.
Xiao Ye called forth his will, and a Destructive Storm descended into the world in his palm.
Swaths of Destructive Storm raged through the immobilized Angel Legion, ravaging them mercilessly.
Yet, when the storm faded, the angels' bodies were perfectly intact, but their eyes were vacant—every single one lifeless.
The Destructive Storm Divine Skill was specialized in soul destruction.
Only their souls were wiped out; their bodies were left untouched.
Seeing a vast field of angel corpses, Xiao Ye immediately activated the Template Adjuster's Law Core Fragment extraction function.
Supreme Power appeared out of the void, descending upon the Angel Legion corpses in his palm-world.
All 600,000 angel bodies convulsed, a stench rising off them as they rapidly decayed, ultimately turning to ash and dissolving into motes of light that faded away.
At the same time, a stream of notifications echoed in Xiao Ye's ears.
[Star Domain Realm Angel, 2 Thunder Attribute Law Core Fragments successfully extracted]
[Star Domain Realm Angel, 2 Nihility Attribute Law Core Fragments successfully extracted]
[Emperor Realm Angel, 1 Reincarnation Attribute Law Core Fragment successfully extracted]
[...]
A string of notifications continued without pause.
Five seconds passed,
And then the sounds abruptly stopped,
Everything had been extracted at last.
Xiao Ye sent his divine sense into his system space to check, and to his astonishment,
At that moment, there were already 1.8 million Law Core Fragments in his system space.
He gave an order to the Template Adjuster, "Synthesize Law Cores."
In the system space, the Law Core Fragments began to combine, one after another.
A millisecond later,
Another 600,000 Law Cores appeared.
Adding those to before, that made a total of 780,000 Law Cores.
This round, the spoils were massive—the haul was enormous, and Xiao Ye was thrilled.
Holy Attribute: 250,000
Space Element: 90,000
Five Elements Attribute: 200,000
Phantom Spirit Attribute: 60,000
Ice Attribute: 40,000
Light Element: 50,000
Dark Element: 50,000
Destruction Attribute: 80,000
Reincarnation Attribute: 20,000
Life Attribute: 30,000
Supreme Attribute: 40,000
Nihility Attribute: 70,000
Thunder Attribute: 40,000
These were Law Cores—not Law Core Fragments.
*Coming here this time, he'd pocketed a fortune, with his loot practically overflowing his sack—it could barely hold any more.*
At that moment, on the battlefield below, the Angel King saw the entire Angel Legion vanish, with all signs of life extinguished, and he erupted in rage.
"Ice, Frost, no matter what—let's take them down with us!"
"If we die, so be it. We'll drag Shangguan Hong and the Generals down with us!"
The Angel King, Kai Xue, roared, nine pairs of wings spreading out behind him, his entire body radiating an unstoppable aura of power.
The Left Wing Guard, Ice, with wings torn off, and the severely wounded Right Wing Guard, Frost, heard him—instantly, their eyes went bloodshot and killing intent exploded from them.
Jes howled hysterically,
"Die! You're all gonna die!"
"Let's go down together!"
Dazzling white light flared from the Left and Right Wing Angels, as surging energy poured out from them.
BOOM! A deafening blast shook the battlefield!
An explosion of overwhelming destructive power erupted!
Shangguan Hong and the ten Generals' faces changed drastically—they hurried to retreat.
They reacted quickly, dodging back and using defensive Divine Skills, so they avoided injury from the explosion.
But after the explosion faded, and the white light vanished, Shangguan Hong frowned,
"Where is the Angel King, Kai Xue? Did he escape?"
