The reborn policewoman's dog solves numerous major cases, shocking the nation.

Chapter 180 Cooperation with the Successors of the End Times!

“There is a very peculiar energy fluctuation within you. It contains both the primal aura of the native creatures of this planet and a mixture of… fragments of a higher dimension, similar to ‘divinity’.”

“If we take you back, the adults of the Ouroboros will be very happy.” The masked man muttered to himself, reaching out as if to touch Chu Sheng.

Just as his fingertips were about to touch Chu Sheng's hair.

Chu Sheng's eyes snapped open!

In those icy blue eyes, there was no longer any trace of the numbness or confusion, only a calmness and mockery as cold as ten thousand years of ice!
"Awooo! (Trying to catch me? You'd better look behind you first.)"

Chu Sheng let out a low growl.

The high-tech net covering his body cracked and shattered instantly under the terrifying burst of muscle power from his physique, a fusion of the North American gray wolf and the American lion!
He had already used his "immunity to all poisons" ability to become immune to those nerve-numbing agents. Everything that just happened was just an act!

The masked man clearly hadn't expected him to break free so quickly; his movements faltered slightly, and he instinctively turned his head away.

Not far behind him, an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard, dressed in a simple robe, had silently appeared and was staring at him with a sharp, sword-like gaze.

"How dare these extraterrestrial demons run rampant on the land of my Eastern Alliance?"

The old Taoist priest's voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to carry a power that penetrated people's hearts.

Without uttering a single word, he made a peculiar hand seal with his left hand and pointed his right hand in a sword-finger gesture at the masked man.
"Imperial Decree! Palm Thunder!"

"Zi la——!"

A golden arc of electricity, as thick as an arm and visible to the naked eye, appeared out of thin air in his palm. It carried an aura of extreme strength and yang energy, and like a raging electric dragon, it instantly blasted towards the masked man!
"Um?!"

A hint of surprise flashed in the masked man's eyes. He clearly hadn't expected that this seemingly ordinary old man could use such a pure energy attack.

He dared not delay and immediately raised his hand, forming an invisible energy shield in front of him.

"boom!"

Golden arcs of electricity slammed into the shield, unleashing a blinding flash of light and a deafening roar!
The masked man was forced back half a step by the force. He looked at his violently fluctuating energy shield and the charred mark on his palm from the electric arc. For the first time, his expression became serious.

"Pure bioelectric energy? No... it's also mixed with a kind of spiritual 'belief' power... So that's it, you are one of the legendary 'end-of-days inheritors' of this planet who have already passed away?"

The masked man looked at the old Taoist priest with incredibly greedy eyes. "Excellent! Absolutely excellent! I never expected to gain anything beyond that 'specimen'! Let's capture you too. The adults of the 'Ouroboros' are equally interested in your unique energy cultivation system!"

A successor to the Dharma-ending Age? An extraterrestrial demon? An ouroboros?

Chu Sheng listened in stunned silence.

My values ​​and worldview have been repeatedly challenged today.

So, there really are cultivators in this world? And there really is such a thing as palm lightning?
However, he was relieved immediately.

He himself has the bloodline of the mythical Howling Celestial Dog flowing through his veins. Compared to these so-called life-powered beings and inheritors of the Dharma-ending Age, he, the prototype of this "mythical creature," is probably the most abnormal and unreasonable one.

"Monster! Die!"

Seeing that his first attack had failed, the old Taoist priest launched another attack. He used the Seven Star Step, his figure elusive, and his hands made hand seals one after another. Golden bolts of lightning shot out from his palms, forcing the masked man to retreat repeatedly.

Inside the command post, Qi Gaowei and his staff watched the battle footage transmitted back by the "Sky Eye," which resembled a fantasy movie, their mouths agape, wide enough to fit a fist.

"I...I'm not seeing things, am I? That...that's a palm-sized thunderbolt?!" a young staff officer stammered.

"Shut up! Keep watching!" Qi Gaowei, though equally shocked, forced himself to remain calm and shouted. However, the outcome of the battle was not optimistic.

Although the old Taoist's attacks were fierce, they seemed to have limited power, as each attack was blocked by the masked man's strange energy shield, failing to cause any substantial damage.

On the contrary, the masked man seemed to be gradually adapting to the old Taoist's attack rhythm, and his counterattacks became increasingly sharp.

"Old man, your energy reserves are almost depleted, aren't they?" The masked man sneered, throwing a punch that sent the old Taoist priest flying back more than ten meters.

The old Taoist priest's face was somewhat pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He knew that what the other person said was true.

In the Dharma-ending Age, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is depleted. The magical power he has accumulated over sixty years is dwindling with each use, and he simply cannot withstand such depletion.

It seems that we have no other choice but to use that method.

A resolute glint flashed in the old Taoist's eyes. He took out a yellow talisman covered with cinnabar runes from his robes, bit his tongue, and spat a mouthful of blood onto the talisman!
"Heaven and Earth are boundless, the universe borrows its power! Divine Firmament Jade Purity True King's decree! Swiftly!"

The talisman instantly shone with golden light, emanating a terrifying aura several times stronger than before, a aura that sent chills down one's spine!

The masked man also sensed the threat. For the first time, his expression became extremely serious, and he mobilized all his energy to prepare to take the final blow head-on!
Just as everyone's attention was drawn to the talisman that shone with golden light...

Chu Sheng moved.

He didn't rush in to confront them head-on; that's not his style.

In his icy blue eyes, the ability of [Causality Deduction] had clearly presented all the possible "outcomes" within the next 0.5 seconds in his mind!
He saw that at the moment the old Taoist priest unleashed the talisman and the masked man went all out to defend, an extremely small but fatal flaw appeared in the masked man's mental field!
You only get one chance!
Chu Sheng didn't make a sound. He simply opened his mouth and, facing a certain direction deep in the forest, used his [Animal Friend] ability to issue the simplest yet most deadly command.

"hiss--!"

A bamboo viper, only as thick as a finger but highly poisonous, lurking beneath the fallen leaves, shot out silently like an arrow from a blind spot that the masked man could never have imagined!

Its target was not the masked man's body, which was enveloped in an energy shield, but the tiny gap at his ankle that was exposed due to his all-out defense!
"puff!"

The fangs pierced in precisely!
"what?!"

The masked man felt a sharp pain in his ankle, followed by an intense numbness. His highly concentrated mental energy momentarily dissipated at that instant!

In a battle between masters, victory or defeat can be decided in an instant!
It was that one-tenth of a second of distraction!

"boom--!!!"

The old Taoist priest's "Divine Firmament Jade Purity True King Token," imbued with his life's cultivation, transformed into a giant golden lightning spear, which slammed fiercely into the masked man's energy shield, which had developed a crack!

"Crack!"

The shield shattered instantly!

"puff--!"

The masked man was struck as if by a heavy blow, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He flew backward, crashing heavily into several large trees before finally coming to a stop.

The strange smiling mask on his face shattered under the immense impact, revealing a pale yet exceptionally handsome face that was completely unlike that of an Easterner.
