Chapter 1014 - 487: The Third Cataclysmic Ability! (10,000 Words for Monthly Tickets!)_3

Qiu Tu looked into the mirror, and sure enough, it was Muye's face inside.

He then sensed the aura—completely different from his—it had transformed into Muye's aura.

"So this is my third ability: 'Punishment Divine Domain'?"

Listening to the aged voice that sounded identical to Muye's, Qiu Tu couldn't help but marvel.

What a powerful ability...

Indeed, after advancing to Fifth Order, Qiu Tu, just like at the Third Order, gained a new Cataclysmic ability.

Similarly, it became his third Cataclysmic ability: Punishment Divine Domain.

This ability continued to align with Qiu Tu's Cataclysm Path of 'Order-Politics.'

Following the 'Order Space' that granted him the "power to establish rules"; and the 'Dark Legion' that brought him an exclusive "military force," the 'Punishment Divine Domain' bestowed him the "authority" for "punishment" and "disposition" over those in his jurisdiction!

The effect of 'Punishment Divine Domain' is that if a living being is defeated by Qiu Tu or loses its ability to act, Qiu Tu gains the ability to punish them using 'Punishment Divine Domain.'

The punishments range from mild to severe: regulation, imprisonment, forced labor, and execution.

Regulation effects include restricting the opponent's Catastrophe Power, mobility, vision, hearing, smell, and other senses.

Imprisonment effects involve detaining the opponent within the 'Punishment Divine Domain,' effectively incarcerating them.

Meanwhile, Qiu Tu can also shapeshift into them—acquiring their appearance, aura, and even their Cataclysmic abilities...

However, the Cataclysmic ability level remains the same as Qiu Tu's and cannot exceed the opponent's own level.

In other words, if Qiu Tu faces a Third Order opponent, defeats them, imprisons them, and shapeshifts into them, his abilities will only reach the Third Order level, not Qiu Tu's Fifth Order level.

Currently, Qiu Tu has imprisoned 'Muye,' whose strength is at the Peak Fifth Rank, higher than Qiu Tu's.

When Qiu Tu shapeshifts into him, his abilities remain at the Fifth Order level, but not at the Peak Fifth Rank.

As for forced labor, its effect is straightforward. Qiu Tu can compel an "enemy" to carry out a specific mission for him.

However, the conditions are quite strict: Not only must Qiu Tu remain by the enemy's side to "monitor" them, but each enemy's force labor attempts are also limited.

It's not something Qiu Tu can use arbitrarily.

Finally, execution requires no explanation—utterly annihilating the enemy's physical body and soul. It is the most ruthless form of punishment.

Primarily used against enemies with multiple escape plans or those that are undying.

And now, the punishment Qiu Tu applied to Muye is 'Imprisonment.'

This was also the reason behind his earlier inquiries about Muye's treatment in the 'Fog Hidden Association.'

If Zhao Ji really intended to eliminate Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu could simply shapeshift into Muye and join the 'Fog Hidden Association,' reveling in unchecked authority.

Furthermore... even if Zhao Ji's matter resolves peacefully, Qiu Tu could borrow Muye's identity to infiltrate the 'Fog Hidden Association,' gather intelligence, monitor enemy movements, and even uncover traitors within the Sixth and Eighth Sanctuaries...

With these thoughts in mind, Qiu Tu concluded his experiment and dispelled his disguise.

It must be said, this advancement brought him considerable gains. Not only did he ascend to the Fifth Order, but he also discovered a crucial Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, the 'earth vein flower,' paving his path for future advancement.

Most importantly, he gained his third Cataclysmic ability, and the ability to shapeshift into Muye, which provided him with greater avenues for intelligence gathering and strategic depth!

Thinking this, Qiu Tu stood up, satisfied, dismissed the Dark Legion, and quietly left the Xinjie Territory.

After traveling for several hours, he arrived at Bright Moon City and entered the 'Bright Moon Area.'

Half an hour later, the news of "Qiu Tu successfully advancing to Fifth Order" began spreading rapidly throughout Dongye State!
