Picking Up Attributes From Today Chapter 378

In the Dragon-Elephant City's Governor Residence…

Dowa Caesar woke up leisurely. He then realized that the hall was empty and that Chief God, who had suddenly visited, was gone. Dowa Caesar had lingering fears as he felt that he had almost died.

“Oh gosh! Did I just meet a Chief God? That's just hard to believe!”

Dowa Caesar patted his chest. His heartbeat had never been pounding so intensely before. “Moro! Has that Chief God left? Did he do anything to you?”

There was no response.

“Moro? You there?”

Dowa Caesar called out again, but there was still no response.

“Moro!

“Moro?

“It can't be! Moro!

“My cheating device…”

Moro was gone.

It plunged Dowa Caesar into total desperation as Moro was his everything. He was only a piece of turd without Moro. He just could not imagine what he would face next.

Moro had left with Meng Lei. After learning Meng Lei's actual age, Moro did not hesitate anymore and promptly followed Meng Lei.

Seriously!

He had already comprehended four supreme laws of nature by the age of 45 years old.

Was he really human?

He was an absolute freak!

Even if the Primordial World Genesis God had a reincarnation, it would be nothing more than that.

In Moro's eyes, Meng Lei's probability of comprehending the genesis laws of nature and controlling the Power of Genesis was great.

Whether Meng Lei would save him in the future could be left for another time.

Yes, I must build good relations with him first! As for the rest, I'll take one step at a time!

Meng Lei continued his search for Divinity Crystals as loads of them entered his spatial ring, expanding his wealth massively. This act greatly puzzled Moro.

“You're already a mid-level Ancient God, so why do you need to steal treasures from normal deities? These treasures shouldn't be valuable for the current you, right?”

“You don't understand.”

“I don't?”

“You really won't understand!”

Moro was fuming, but he could not do anything to Meng Lei.

Plunder!

Plunder!

Plunder!

Despite Meng Lei's unprecedented looting speed, the Dragon-Elephant City was just too huge.

A month passed…

Two months passed…

Three months passed…

The plundering continued.

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Moro was fed up upon seeing how 'frivolous' Meng Lei was.

“Kid, we are almost halfway past this era, and you're still over here wasting time. You're simply wasting your life away!”

“Wasting my life?”

Meng Lei took a peek at his Wealth on the stats interface and revealed a satisfied smile. The massive wealth he had was worth his hard work.

“Kid, what you need to do now is to find a place to comprehend the supreme laws of nature properly, not wasting your time like this. Understand?” Moro tried to persuade him.

“You wouldn't understand even if I told you.” Meng Lei rolled his eyes. “You can relax, old man. Rather than idling with so much time, why don't you help me guide my subordinates?”

Meng Lei glanced at the bored subordinates following behind him. They were like frozen eggplants, withered and spiritless1.

“A bunch of fellows who refined divine cores to become higher deities, there's nothing more to their future. Guiding them would be the actual waste of time!” Moro huffed. “I still believe you must find a quiet place to comprehend the supreme laws of nature—”

“Enough, enough. You better return to the Tower of Time since I'm going nuts because of your nagging!” Meng Lei shooed Moro back into the Tower of Time.

“Disaster is nearby if you don't listen to your elders, kid. You'll regret it later!”

Moro was so angry that he wanted to put a bomb in Meng Lei's groin.

Boom!

Just then, a terrifying wave of pressure coming from afar swept across, along with dazzling multi-colored light beams.

The air in some distance away was painted in rainbow colors; even Dragon-Elephant City glowed colorfully.

“What's going on?”

Meng Lei looked toward the beams' direction.

Ol' Amos, Puhaman, Bubbles, and the rest shuddered as they regained their spirits, each of them looking at the air in the distance.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The deities in the city were alarmed by it, and they flew into the sky to check the situation.

“What has happened over there?”

“Did you all sense that? Such… Such pressure!”

“I felt that. Even from afar, it makes me palpitate.”

Meng Lei frowned and looked into the distance with a solemn look. If Puhaman and the rest could sense it, he felt it even clearer.

Somewhere far away, someone or something emanated a terrifying aura, which even made Meng Lei feel pressured.

That was incredible as he was a mid-level Ancient God. What could have pressured him?

“This aura… Tsk, another bloodshed is coming!” Moro flew out of the Tower of Time and gloated.

“Do you know what's happening over there?”

Meng Lei looked puzzled as he looked at Moro.

“Hoho, across the vast universe, nothing can be hidden from me!” Moro boasted.

Meng Lei was rendered speechless. “Then tell me what can give off such a powerful aura?”

Moro asked instead of replying, “You've refined a Heart of The Existential Plane, right?”

“Of course!”

Meng Lei nodded lightly.

Moro chuckled and asked, “If you sense it carefully, isn't this aura similar to one of a Heart of The Existential Plane?”

“The Heart of The Existential Plane?”

Meng Lei sensed the aura for a while before he exclaimed, “Indeed, this aura is pretty similar to a Heart of The Existential Plane. Perhaps it's coming from Earth Divine Realm's Heart of The Existential Plane?”

“If it's the complete Earth Divine Realm's Heart of The Existential Plane, you'd be lying on the floor right now. There would be no way you could still be standing here.” Moro shook his head. “If I'm not wrong, this aura should be coming out from a fragment of the Heart of The Existential Plane.”

“Fragment?” Meng Lei was surprised. “The Heart of The Existential Plane can be broken?”

The Heart of The Existential Plane was made up of ten basic laws of nature and ten kinds of Power of Origin, which was indestructible. Even at Meng Lei's level, he could not simply break low-end existential planes' Heart of The Existential Plane, not to mention Earth Divine Realm's Heart of The Existential Plane, a high-end existential plane's.

“Young man, across the entire universe, other than the immortality essence, there's nothing else that can be everlasting!” Moro shook his head slowly. “Plus, it's different from those of low-end and mid-end existential planes since it's almost never complete.”

“Never complete?” Meng Lei was surprised. “Why so?”

“Who knows? They were never complete, that's for sure!” Moro smiled slightly. “Oh yes, I think there's a name for the Heart of The Existential Plane of a high-end existential plane.”

“What?” asked Meng Lei.

“Chief God divine core.”

Moro looked at Meng Lei with a ghost of a smile.

“Chief God divine core!” Meng Lei was utterly shocked. “You mean, the thing that emanated such aura is a Chief God divine core?”

“That's right,” Moro replied with a smile. “If I'm not wrong, it's an unowned divine core that just came into existence. Or else, it wouldn't have caused such a ruckus.”

“Since it's a Chief God divine core, why didn't you say it earlier?”

Meng Lei was mad as he placed Ol' Amos and the rest into the Tower of Time before activating the Great World-Breaching Transfer Technique to shoot toward the direction.

A Chief God divine core!

That was something that could give him a meteoric rise!

Even if he did not assimilate it for himself, he had to obtain it first!
