Chapter 1007 - 485: Successfully Advance to Fifth Order! (10,000 Characters for Monthly Ticket)_2

"Qiu Tu... You deserve to die, truly deserve to die..."

"How dare you even touch my daughter."

"Do you really think I'm just a sickly cat?!"

And when Yan Chen thought back to the cloned version of his wife that he had accidentally seen emerging from Qiu Tu's office today, his eyes turned blood-red in fury...

...

At the same time.

Qiming City, The military.

A man with a lean frame, resembling a bamboo pole, wearing a military green uniform with a single golden star on his shoulder, was glaring at the intelligence report in his hands.

The more he read, the angrier his expression became!

Finally, he slammed the report onto the table fiercely, "A Fifth-Order Calamity Being?!"

"What gives him the right to advance to Fifth-Order?!"

"My brother didn't even have the resources to advance to Fifth-Order! What gives him the right?!"

The man's face twisted into a sinister expression, looking particularly vicious, "First, he snatched my brother's Speaker position, and then he stole the resources meant for my brother's advancement to Fifth-Order. Does he really think the Shao Family can be treated like pushovers?!"

.....

At the same time.

Disaster Zone, Trading Market, snowflakes swirling in the air.

On the ruined streets of the Trading Market, a man whose arm bore needle marks, his body emaciated and looking malnourished, was dragging a flatbed cart step by step forward down the filthy, chaotic street.

Sitting on the cart was his disheveled wife, who had just sold her body. She held a small child wrapped in a quilt.

It was their child who had just frozen to death....

Their red-rimmed eyes and expressionless faces were streaked with tears...

A figure hurriedly passed by them without sparing them a glance. After all, such scenes were far too common in the Disaster Zone, so frequent they scarcely drew attention.

The figure approached a dilapidated courtyard and knocked lightly on the door in a rhythm of three long taps followed by two short ones.

A moment later, the door creaked open with a "creak~" sound.

The figure glanced around carefully, ensuring no one was watching, then leaned forward and whispered,

"Prince Muye is confirmed missing; however, it seems he hasn't perished yet. Several regions remain under ownership."

"The Bishop suspects Zhao Ji is involved. Right now, Prince Muye is either in Zhao Ji's hands or in Qiu Tu's."

"Thus, the Bishop's directive for this mission is clear: have that person probe Qiu Tu. Confirm Prince Muye's situation and whereabouts."

"If necessary, report to Your Highness "Yaksha," who presides over The Sixth Sanctuary Region."

"He will either recruit or eliminate Zhao Ji."

"Those who have not attained Sixth-Order remain mere ants. Zhao Ji may be strong, but she cannot possibly be a match for Your Highness "Yaksha.""

The high-pitched voice from inside the door responded sharply, "Understood."

"I will immediately relay the message to that individual at The Sixth Sanctuary."

"You all, stay safe out there."

"Huang Shangzong has gone mad, and it's hard to say he won't attack tomorrow."

"Got it." The figure responded and, after scanning his surroundings once more, hurriedly left.

The biting cold wind swept through the Trading Market, carrying faint traces of blood...

.....

And so, while Qiu Tu was ascending to Fifth-Order Calamity Being,

Dongye State and New State were roiling with undercurrents.

Fifth-Order may be powerful. But... this real world isn't like a game, where being stronger than someone guarantees victory.

More often than not, unless your strength reaches an overwhelming level, success still depends on intellect.

Thus, while Qiu Tu's advancement to Fifth-Order surprised many, it did not deter his potential enemies...

Time swiftly passed, and five days elapsed.

On the sixth day, within the Boundless Heart Sea – Xinjie Region.

A beam of golden light suddenly exploded across the sky of Xinjie Region.

Luckily, it was daytime in "Boundless Heart Sea," rendering it less conspicuous.

Otherwise, the teams exploring and gathering resources in the "Xinjie Region" would likely have noticed this phenomenon.

Even so, a few individuals still detected the anomaly and glanced skyward.

But the phenomenon disappeared as suddenly as it had appeared.

So when they looked up, they saw nothing but empty skies.

Most simply furrowed their brows in confusion, then dismissed it without much concern.

At that moment... deep within the forest of Xinjie Region.

Qiu Tu slowly opened his eyes.

In that instant, his pupils transformed into a radiant golden hue, making him appear almost divine.

Gradually restraining the imposing aura of a Fifth-Order Calamity Being emanating from his body, Qiu Tu's expression grew complicated.

Though his ascension had proceeded smoothly enough, it seemed to have unveiled even more problems.

He... was locked!

As this realization settled in, Qiu Tu couldn't help but recall the gains and challenges he had encountered during his advancement.

Upon achieving the status of Fifth-Order Calamity Being, the most significant change was... Qiu Tu's rank and power had taken a tremendous leap forward.

Especially his rank.

At Fifth-Order, Qiu Tu's Cataclysmic abilities could now affect all beings below Sixth-Order.

Figures like Zhao Ji at Peak Fifth-Order or Prince Muye. Qiu Tu's Order Space could now take effect, no longer rendered powerless as it was during Fourth-Order.

However... while effective, it didn't mean Qiu Tu could act recklessly.

The consumption of Order Space depended on the disparity between entities and the rules Qiu Tu established.

If the disparity was overwhelming or if the rules were too stringent, Qiu Tu could end up drained completely or even killed.

Thus, when dealing with the Peak Fifth-Order Great Evil God, Qiu Tu had to exercise extreme caution.

Beyond his rank and power advances, Qiu Tu sensed the most significant enhancement coming from the Xinjie Region's boost.

Having fully seized control of Xinjie Region, Qiu Tu had successfully refined it into his personal domain.

With a region serving as his fortress, Qiu Tu's spiritual power, vitality, and longevity had all undergone substantial growth.
