Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely-Chapter 741
Chapter 741: 669 Chapter 741: 669 Mount Fuji sat at the tectonic triple junction with a hidden eruption energy level quite considerable, and it was only eighty kilometers away from Tokyo.
Now, since most of the basic infrastructure of Neon had remained preserved, although the power generation and various resources had declined, the transportation remained highly efficient and connected.
Mount Fuji, not being too far from Tokyo itself, meant that the Qingyun Sect’s “Mountain Opening Ceremony” could be considered the premier event in the New Development Zone of Earth Dragon City.
Many Outsiders had traveled through transference to attend, motivated by the event’s reputation and even the locals were rushing over.
Tourism, a non-essential activity, had drastically reduced after falling into the Abyss, yet now, the crowd gathered at Mount Fuji outnumbered even the peak tourist seasons, by the hundreds of thousands!
When Tao Yu and Mikami Shiou arrived, the place was already a sea of people, teeming with activity.
Powerful presences would occasionally sweep through the air, and sightings of World Breakers, typically rare, had already surpassed a hundred within half a day.
...
The crowd would erupt into exclamations now and then,
“That one just now was Cheng the young master from Dragon Heaven City.”
“The Bai Family from Baixing State came earlier…”
“Truly a grand event.”
“I wonder if we’ll have a chance…”
“…”
The appearance of certain prominent and well-known World Breakers would always draw admiration.
Tao Yu also learned that quite a few had come from Baixing State.
He had blended in with the locals to avoid attracting unnecessary attention.
As for Mikami Shiou, aside from accompanying Tao Yu, she harbored a glimmer of hopeful anticipation herself, wishing to defy fate.
For now, no Catastrophe Level beings had made a high-profile appearance, but Tao Yu faintly sensed several Catastrophe Level auras in the vicinity, maintaining their distance from each other and not approaching Mount Fuji.
“It seems they are all somewhat wary of Tianchengzi; is this guy really that strong…”
Tao Yu couldn’t figure out who this Tianchengzi was, but as a big shot of the Orthodox Sect, he should be a significant cultivator.
Yet…
Looking ahead at Mount Fuji, Tao Yu always felt an ominous cloud hanging over the summit, uncertain whether it was innate to the place or brought by the Qingyun Sect.
This prompted Tao Yu to perform a brief Divination.
Minor Omen!
This feedback from the divination truly took Tao Yu by surprise.
What’s the matter?
With his current strength, to receive such a divination result?
Even when he had faced General Zaka and the Abyssal Lord, the feedback wasn’t like this!
While it wasn’t any significant trouble, it clearly indicated a problem at the moment.
Tao Yu hesitated, then decided to perform a divination for Mikami Shiou beside him.
Deadly Peril!
“Hmm?”
Tao Yu had only tried on a whim and didn’t expect so many unsettling results to emerge.
He then began to divine for other ordinary people nearby and discovered that every single one within eyesight was the same!
The character for death emblazoned upon them.
It seemed as if the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people gathered at Mount Fuji for the opening ceremony were highly likely to die here?
“Haven’t that group noticed?
They can’t all be not trying to divine, can they?”

Tao Yu’s expression seemed quite solemn.
Espionage in a superhuman conflict was very important.
Even though Tao Yu held the threads of Destiny and was adept at Divination, he didn’t believe he could overwhelm the local experts in this regard.
Just Earth Dragon City alone surpassed Starshine in scale.
Even without a bloodline adept at Divination, it was normal to be well-equipped, like the Suns, with relevant items.
Tao Yu slowly exhaled, first disrupting his own Divination, then began to tentatively attempt to lock onto those few Catastrophe Level individuals.
Divination interference…
Indeed, they had conducted Divination-related disruptions on him, so they definitely could sense something was amiss here.
Or rather, the situation here was originally related to them!
“Catastrophe Level combat fluctuations covering the area?
Are they going to fight here?
But why would that pose a threat to me…”
Tao Yu pondered within.
The final situation, it seemed, all pointed to that grandly announced mountain-opening ceremony…
All this time, they had only recruited so few people, and now suddenly they were scaling up so much, which truly didn’t seem normal.
Tao Yu then found one of the World Breakers who had flown over before and conveniently did a divination on him.
Hmm, great misfortune.
Though not the ten deaths without life of ordinary people, it was still quite perilous, with a high likelihood of serious injury, and bad luck might mean ending up dead here.
“Is this a trap, luring people in only to catch them all?
What for?
It shouldn’t be something instigated by the Pioneers…”
Tao Yu understood the mindset of the Pioneers well; matters that were all downside and no upside were simply out of the picture.
The people in Earth Dragon City must be crazy to think about catching representatives from all sides in one fell swoop, unless collectively bewitched by Evil God believers.
“Hmm, but for it to become this complicated, there really could be involvement from Evil God believers, what in the world is Tianchengzi up to…”
Tao Yu had a vague judgment forming in his mind.
When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains must be the truth!
Compared to the possibility of collective possession by the Evil God in Earth Dragon City, it was more probable for Tianchengzi to have an issue.
“Did he become Bewitched when the Evil God invaded as he fell…”
Tao Yu was contemplative; indeed, within Zhu Xian, there was such a concept of being misled by inner demons, with the protagonist Zhang Xiaofan being sent to Qingyun Sect, also influenced by a Great Monk who had been Bewitched…
“If that’s the case, then everything makes sense.
Initially, Tianchengzi was Bewitched, and then after falling into the Abyss, the Abyss’s influence…”
Tao Yu vaguely thought, why was it that only Tianchengzi fell?
“However, according to the expressiveness of Zhu Xian, aside from the Beast God, it’s really only the Immortal Slayer Sword that poses a clear threat to me.
Just Tianchengzi should not be a concern.
Now that I’m already aware of the situation, there should be no concern for safety since I won’t be caught off guard by his attack!”
Tao Yu conducted another, more detailed, Divination after that, integrating all the variables he would be involved with afterward.
Great misfortune!
Damn it!
Tao Yu almost thought he was mistaken.
But immediately afterward, he realized his Divination had been disrupted!
“What the hell?
A Saint has come?
Or is there some top-tier Catastrophe Level?
At least, it should be a Supreme Elder of the Suns’ level to pose such a threat to me, right?
What kind of tool?”
Tao Yu continuously deduced through his own judgments and then looked up at the dark clouds over Mount Fuji.
Wait, if he remembered correctly, Qingyun Sect itself had a significant risk of Bewitchment…
“Using the Immortal Slayer Sword Formation tends to make one Bewitched, right?”
Tao Yu murmured to himself and even felt a bit ridiculous.
It couldn’t be that the Immortal Slayer Sword was bringing trouble as well…
