Only I Have the Law: A Fantasy Daily Life

Chapter 132 God Reclaimed Part of His Authority

Well known.

While the world of cultivation and fantasy may seem to have many cultivation realms, in reality, there are only three realms.

They are respectively the Senior Realm, Fellow Daoist Realm, and Ant Realm!

Those who can be easily defeated are ants; those who are hard to defeat are fellow Daoists; and those who are completely unbeatable are seniors.

The hierarchy was clearly defined and orderly.

At this moment.

When one realizes that the Tindaros Hound does not exist and that the only problem to be solved is this ordinary stray dog, then one automatically advances from the cautious ant realm to the senior realm.

Although it took a whole morning to chase them from the command center all the way to Huaxi Dam, experiencing a fantastical subway journey and a crowd chase, the final climax action scene turned out to be just a starving stray dog ​​as their opponent.

But that's not important.

What I want is... no, a stray dog!
At this moment, offense and defense have changed!

If it were an animated film or TV series, then a powerful piece of music should start playing at this moment!

Chen Baiyu saw that the place was remote and deserted.

Decisiveness means accelerating forward without hesitation.

[Buzz——! 】

That was triggered by that instantaneous sprint at the start.

It wasn't a real sonic boom.

It was not a powerful opening melody.

Instead, it's a more heart-pounding, low-frequency vibration generated by pure speed compressing air!
It was as if the surrounding stuffy, hot air was being forcibly kneaded, flattened, and repelled by an invisible giant hand, creating a brief vacuum corridor.

The swarm of buzzing flies beside the garbage heap had barely taken off an inch when the sharp, piercing bark of the stray dog ​​seemed to be drawn out and slowed down. It had only uttered half a syllable before the slovenly-colored stray dog ​​had just finished turning around, and one of its front paws hadn't even fully touched the ground...

Chen Baiyu's figure had already become blurred!
The spatial folding effect, as if "shrinking the earth to an inch," was achieved in an instant. He took a step and instantly rushed more than ten meters away. Then he turned into the alley and ignored the seven or eight meters of road in the middle that was piled with debris, spilled sewage, and uneven surface, and leaped over it.

Stepping on wooden planks amidst piles of debris in mid-air.

[Sizzle!]

There was no dust flying around; instead, the stained wooden board seemed to be precisely torn into countless tiny snowflake fragments by an invisible force, which were instantly and silently shot out in all directions.

Using the momentum from this point of contact, Chen Baiyu's body completed a right-angle turn in mid-air that seemed to defy the laws of physics.

He didn't chase after the wild dog following its escape route, but rather, like a cold light tearing through a crack in space, he pierced straight into the throat of the wild dog's only possible escape route with the most perfect tangential path!

His movements seemed to be so fast that they exceeded the limits of motion vision capture.

In Chen Baiyu's world at this moment, everything was stretched out, moving as slowly as a frame of stop-motion animation:

The terrified, scruffy dog's fur stood on end in extreme fear, each hair clearly visible, and its murky eyes reflected its own lightning-fast approach.

The blinding sunlight reflected off the edge of the coin in the dog's mouth was like a signal light playing in slow motion.

Even the dog's ribs, slightly taut and jagged from pushing off the ground with its hind legs, were clearly visible!
next moment.

Chen Baiyu had already moved ahead of the dog and stood in its way.

His right hand had somehow become as sharp as a halberd, without using any flashy magical fluctuations [Illumination - All-Encompassing] or Dragonborn power [Dragonborn Avatar - Stage I]. It was merely a basic physical movement amplified to a terrifying degree by absolute speed and power.

With a sharp whistling sound that seemed to tear through the air, her fingertips moved with unparalleled precision, as gentle as plucking a flower yet possessing the force to cut through metal, clamping down on the trembling jaw that was gaping open in extreme fear.

The stray dog's mouth was pried open without any resistance.

The coin that was gleaming coldly in his mouth was snatched away in an instant, and in its place was a mouthful of jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe).

See this.

Chen Baiyu said softly:
"This treasure is meant for a powerful person."

After saying that, he took a step and jumped over the wall.

I jumped over the wall at the very end of the alley and went to the other side.

The stray dog ​​was left standing there, stunned, its face showing a look of utter disbelief.

·······················
At this moment.

Having just bullied the weak, Chen Baiyu hadn't gone far on the other side of the alley wall.

Instead, they quietly watched the system's task settlement.

Once he retrieved the so-called [Immortal Monument Fragment] from the mouth of the Tindaros Hound, the quest "The Hunt for Time-Binding Claws" was naturally completed.

The slightly cold metallic touch of his fingertips made the coin, stained with saliva and pancake crumbs, seem more dazzling than a fragment of a star in Chen Baiyu's eyes.

It lay peacefully in his palm, devoid of any mystique, its greasy sheen silently revealing the "simplicity" of reality in the sweltering midday heat of Chengdu.

However, the system's notification sound resounded loudly in his mind the moment the coin was in his hand.

Like the final, resounding note of a concerto of destiny:

【drop! 】

[Special Mission "The Hunt: The Time-Binding Claws" Completed!]

【Mission Objective: Reclaim [Immortal Monument Fragment] (1/1) (Completed)】

[Mission Evaluation: In the gaps between branches of the endless flow of time, you, with your mortal body, glimpsed the shadow of a spacetime hunter (projection level). Through precise strategic positioning, overwhelming absolute power conversion efficiency, and a profound understanding of the simple cosmic law of 'opportunity' (survival of the fittest), you successfully severed its deteriorating escape path!]

[Summary: They punched the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicked the Beihai Kindergarten!]

Yes, that's a good compliment. Say a few more compliments.

Chen Baiyu smiled slightly.

Instead of being ashamed, I feel proud of it.

He excels at challenging those of higher levels.

Next time, it would be better to have a mission to steal lollipops from kindergarten children. I have no other intentions; it's just that a junior cultivator undergoing tribulation wants to taste the rare and precious materials of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

While thinking.

The system notification sound is coming to an end.

[Task Reward: 150 Experience Points]

As the last sentence fell with a passionate and resounding tone.

The system's usual cold, impersonal notification tone abruptly stopped.

The rewards screen only shows 150 experience points.

The previously mentioned [Fragment of the Immortal Monument] wasn't listed, probably because it was currently in his possession. Although he still didn't know its use, Chen Baiyu carefully put it away.

immediately.

He then closed his eyes and began to savor and enjoy the experience.

After the experience points are credited.

What follows is that familiar, exhilarating feeling at the soul level when experience points are injected, like drinking a fine wine.

【drop! 】

Experience points absorbed.

[Level Up!]

[Current level: 6]

[Upgrade grants attribute boosts: Based on the [All Laws Return to the Source] class characteristics, Constitution +1.5, Spirit +1.5]

Your current physical attribute is 9, and your mental attribute is 9.

The cold, hard numbers were refreshed instantly.

The sense of power brought by the upgrade is indeed more substantial, and the feedback from the increase in attribute points is incredibly clear on both the physical and mental levels.

This is the first upgrade after obtaining a profession.

Compared to the previous 1-point attribute increase per level, this 1.5-point increase feels much more refreshing.

God has taken back a portion of His authority!

Not much, but enough!
While thinking.

Chen Baiyu tried to take a heavy step forward.

Nine times the power of human limits was unleashed without reservation.

"Bam—!"

That step was taken.

The loose ground instantly caved in with a thin layer, forming a clear footprint, and the edge gravel and dust were shaken and scattered everywhere.

however.

The power was greater than Chen Baiyu had expected.

Or to be precise.

It exceeded the limits of his shoes.

"Snapped!"

His right sneaker seemed to be burst open by the force of an internal explosion; the upper split instantly from his toes to his heel, and the sole separated from the upper.

The air cushion inside the shoe made a dull popping sound, and the entire shoe was instantly ruined.

Worse.

The force also affected his right leg.

Or to be precise.

It was the pants that affected the right leg.

Such a sudden and unrestrained burst of full power was clearly beyond what ordinary pants could withstand.

"Crack——!"

A faint yet distinct tearing sound was heard.

The right leg of the trousers was ripped at the seam, and there was also a tear near the pelvis, instantly turning it into a wasteland-style ripped area.

Chen Baiyu frowned and quickly steadied himself.

Take a deep breath and stop exerting force.

He can easily adapt to the sense of power that comes with the upgrade.

However, his clothes and shoes were clearly not made of the same material as the Hulk's underwear, and even slightly strenuous movements would damage them.

After all, even a basketball player can puncture his sneakers on the spot, let alone him?
The world is becoming increasingly fragile for him.

He ultimately lacked a biological perspective.

In fantasy works, Superman's biofield allows him to fly, and he can also cover any object he wants with his biofield.

This allows Superman to catch his girlfriend Louise as she falls at breakneck speed without killing her, making it a very powerful and useful ability.

Without Superman's biological perspective.

This god could destroy this fragile world with just a casual movement.

His future self.

Even the slightest movement could cause this deity to be found completely naked.

Chen Baiyu looked down at the ruined sneakers and pants, and shook his head helplessly: "Looks like I need to buy a new pair of shoes and pants, preferably a custom-made pair that can withstand my current strength."

He needs specially made clothes.

With a little effort put into the materials, they will be sufficient for a long time.

However, even specially made clothes have their limits. Faced with ever-increasing power, the best option is to have a bio-field or similar power to protect the clothes and shoes from damage.

Chen Baiyu suddenly remembered her magic.

This magical power might have an effect similar to a biological force?

However, for the time being...

His understanding and application of magic is still quite rudimentary.

More persistent and long-term research is needed.

Thinking.

He looked up into the distance, a slight smile playing on his lips.

New power, new challenges—all of this excited him.

of course.

Before that, you need to change into a proper outfit.
