Seven Deadly Sins System

Chapter 97: [Authority]



The claw mark on the ground was deep and it was cut evenly, as if a sharp flaming knife had passed through it and left behind its traces.

There was a strange aura coming from the claw mark and if one were to step close to it, they would feel a sharp aura rushing towards their face.

Looking at the destruction caused by a mere wave of her hands, Chu Wuyao was very satisfied.

She could feel that whether it was her Devil abilities, her skills or her physical strength, their power had been massively increased.

Even though she had only met a few Shackles Realm cultivators so far and had only personally fought against Li Ruoshi, she guessed that her current strength should be quite strong even among all Shackles Realm cultivators.

Of course, this was just her guess and she couldn't be 100% sure.

"But it is not my power that has increased...", Chu Wuyao whispered and she moved her arm towards her abdomen.

A sharp light flashed on her nails and then, she attacked the golden armor on her body without holding back.

"Clang!"

The sound of metal colliding was heard and a few light sparks appeared in the place of the collision.

However, when Chu Wuyao lowered her head and looked at the golden armor, she found that there was no damage left behind at all, not even a tiny scratch.

She was about to investigate her strength in the True Form further, when she suddenly had a feeling of exhaustion, coupled with the feeling of intense hunger.

The next second, she instinctively deactivated her True Form and returned to her true appearance.

Even then, a hint of hunger remained in her eyes, resembling a beast that had not eaten for a long time.

"Is this the side-effect of using the True Form Devil ability?", Chu Wuyao still managed to remain calm and judged the situation based on her experience.

After she put up a black dress to hide her naked body, she waved her hand and a transparent white substance appeared in her palm which she threw it into her mouth.

Instantly, she felt that both exhaustion and hunger had somewhat lessened, even though they had not completely disappeared and were still there.

This transparent substance that Chu Wuyao swallowed was not anything else, but the souls she had accumulated during the sect competition.

She was originally planning to use them as a "fuel" for the Devil Summoning, but she still didn't hesitate to use them in order to recover.

After all, for a Devil, souls were not a rare thing.

As long as she killed a few people, she would naturally be able to obtain their souls.

Moreover, she still had Li Ruoshi, a soul powerbank.

Ignoring this waste, Chu Wuyao recalled the strength she obtained in the True Form and was quite satisfied.

Although she was a little disappointed to have not awakened a few more Devil abilities that could be used at ordinary times, it was still nice to be able to get a new trump card.

Speaking of this, Chu Wuyao suddenly remembered that there was still one more thing she had to deal with after her breakthrough.

Opening the system panel once again, her gaze landed at the bottom of the panel, focusing on the [Authorities] column and specifically on the [Mist World(Seed)].

This was part of the inheritance she obtained from the Mist Dragon and it was actually the main object of the whole inheritance.

As something left behind by a being at the peak of the Supernatural Realm, it was bound to be something very valuable.

Unfortunately, because Chu Wuyao's cultivation was previously low, she was unable to make any use of it.

Now that she had broken through the Shackles Realm, it was finally time for her to find out its function.

With that in mind, Chu Wuyao's eyes focused on the [Authorities] column and braced herself for the information that was coming.

Sure enough, the next second, pieces of information poured straight into her mind, letting her know what the so-called Authorities were.

Having experienced such a thing many times by now, coupled with her recent breakthrough, it didn't take long for Chu Wuyao to fully digest the information.

After she swore that she would find another, more novel way to pass information in the future, she turned her attention to the information regarding the Authorities.

According to the system, the term Authority is not its own, but a term used by the cultivators in this world.

Specifically, the cultivators in this world believe that every world, including the world they currently live in, operate according to certain laws.

For a world to operate normally, there have to be countless such laws, including laws regarding material things like fire and water, as well as immaterial, conceptual things like time, love and fate.

If a cultivator wants to break through the Awakening Realm, they have to have a certain understanding of at least one of these countless laws. Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

This understanding may come from the techniques they practice, the skills they use or any random enlightenment they may have.

For example, if a cultivator frequently uses skills that are based on fire, they will gradually come to understand the law of fire.

Once this understanding is enough, they will naturally obtain the Fire Authority and will be able to break through the Awakening Realm.

"Doesn't this mean that I already possess the ticket to break through the Awakening Realm?", Chu Wuyao couldn't help but think, but she understood that this was just her immature guess.

Until she got the rest of the Original Desire Sutra and learned more about the Shackles Realm and the Awakening Realm, it was impossible for her to be completely sure.

Suppressing these thoughts, she no longer thought about this issue and raised her hand, bringing it in front of her eyes.

Turning it over, she looked at the back of her hand, only to find that a complicated white rune had appeared on it.

Chu Wuyao was very familiar with this white rune and it was what she had obtained from the inheritance of the Mist Dragon.

When her eyes landed on this rune, many inexplicable thoughts regarding the mist and its uses naturally appeared on her mind.

With these thoughts, Chu Wuyao felt that her understanding of the law of mist was rapidly improving, as if she had fallen into enlightenment and had seen the truth of this world.

However, she quickly woke up and looked away, causing these inexplicable thoughts to stop.

Opening the system panel, Chu Wuyao looked at her information and found that not only had her proficiency in the Mist Domain improved, but there was also another, more important change.
