Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 538

Chapter 538: Chapter 539: The Successor? [2nd Update]

The thirty people were terrified. They never imagined their superpowers would disappear just like that. Knowing how terrifying Wu Tian was, they could only hope he would spare them.

Composing himself, Bidley immediately said respectfully, "Lord Martial God, please stop! We’re from a foreign embassy."

"Embassy?" Wu Tian chuckled and glanced at them. He figured they were from the likes of the American or British embassies. But so what? International friends? Who cares?

"All of you, disappear," Wu Tian said indifferently.

The technique he had just used to shatter their abilities was the Crushing Origin Palm. This was a Martial Arts Technique Wu Tian created back when he was the Wutian Celestial Emperor. Some families passed down abilities through their bloodline, such as Divine Bodies and Divine Skills. Unlike Spiritual Power, these gifts were ingrained in their very flesh and blood, making them impossible to remove at their root.

At the time, Wu Tian and the Empress had discussed if it was possible to strip people of their bloodlines, Innate Divine Abilities, the divinity-granting Heavy Pupils, Supreme Bones, and Divine Bodies. After discussing the Dao together for a year, Wu Tian created the Crushing Origin Palm, while the Empress developed the Creation Tactics. Both were Martial Arts Techniques designed to eradicate these abilities at their very source, turning something into nothing.

"Run!"

The thirty people scrambled to flee. Wu Tian snorted. "Burn them to ash."

Little Kirin nodded, and a sea of fire rolled out, incinerating them.

But why exactly had those people surrounded Professors Zheng and Li? Wu Tian turned his gaze toward them.

"We are professors from the Dragon Country Seed Vault. Thank you, Lord Martial God, for saving us," said the professors. They had been certain they were going to die. With the resurgence of Spiritual Energy on Earth, many people awakened superpowers like mutants, and the rule of law seemed to have become a mere suggestion. Murder had even become a common occurrence among ordinary people. They never expected to encounter a benefactor who would save their lives and were filled with gratitude toward Wu Tian.

"No need for thanks," Wu Tian nodded, cutting to the chase. "But what exactly is going on here? Why were they giving you trouble?"

"Uh, this..." Professors Li and Zheng hesitated, unsure if they should tell the truth. However, Wu Tian had saved them, and at this moment, Dragon Country truly needed a Martial God like him. They reasoned that in the face of such global changes, the people of Dragon Country should unite rather than harbor suspicions against one another. Thinking of this, Professor Zheng and Professor Li sighed and decided to be truthful.

Professor Zheng said, "I hold a doctorate in medicine, and I discovered a King of Poppies. With the resurgence of Spiritual Energy on Earth, such miraculous things have begun to appear. As you know, poppies can be used to create stimulants that temporarily boost one’s spiritual power. The King of Poppies, however, can permanently enhance it. If other countries were to obtain it and manufacture drugs, terrifying psychotropic substances could be created."

Poppies are the main raw material for producing opium, and their extracts are also the source of various sedatives.

Upon hearing this, Wu Tian’s eyes lit up. He now had a lead on how to restore his Spiritual Sense!

"I want the King of Poppies," Wu Tian said immediately. "Of course, I also want to see the time machine."

Professor Zheng and Professor Li exchanged a glance and both nodded.
