Dao Of Heaven

Chapter 336: Interested

Within the 60GR section of the Sabaody Archipelago, deafening explosions echoed one after another.

Clang!

A jet-black flying slash struck Sanguinius' ornate golden power armor. The embedded specialized Honkai Particle Void Shield emitted ripples across its surface.

Boom!

The resulting shockwave instantly erased the port area around Sanguinius, leveling the surroundings of 60GR.

"If this is the extent of your abilities... there's no need to conti...

Chapter 266: The Betrayal

"Shizuku Yaegashi, why don't you just agree? I don't want to die!"

A frail and disheveled boy, his expression laced with fear, shouted in a trembling voice.

As soon as his words fell, Suzu Taniguchi, standing nearby, glared at him in anger.

"Shimizu! What nonsense are you spouting?!"

Though Suzu was terrified herself, she could never accept sacrificing Shizuku for a chance to survive.

Her sentiment was echoed by Aiko Hatayama, who sternly reprimanded the boy:

Chapter 535: New Home

Thus, Kurumi Tokisaki also moved into the apartment.

In truth, Tohka Yatogami and Origami Tobiichi had already met Kurumi Tokisaki before, and while Mukuro Hoshimiya had interacted with her a few times, their relationship was neither particularly close nor estranged. As for Yoshino, she had always been friendly to everyone, so her attitude toward Kurumi didn't change much.

Regarding Kurumi Tokisaki's arrival, none of them showed much hostility. Of course, it wasn't as though they ...

Chapter 36: The Beginning of the Split

Sumeru's Desert Region.

This was the largest settlement of desert folk: Aaru Village.

As previously mentioned, the desert's conditions were dire—raging sandstorms, a scarcity of water, and an even greater lack of arable land for growing food.

To survive, desert dwellers had three main choices: join mercenary groups to raid and plunder, scour the desert for ancient relics to trade at Caravan Ribat, or work as guides for scholars conducting research in the desert, using thei...

Chapter 248: I Want to Marry Yui!

As Utaha and Mai were chatting about Kotomi, the subject of their conversation had already returned to Class 1-F after washing Yui's lunchbox.

"Yui, here you go. Thanks for the lunch," Kotomi said as she handed the clean lunchbox back to Yui Yuigahama.

"I'm glad you liked it. This was my first time making braised pork. I was worried you wouldn't enjoy it, but seeing how much you ate, I feel a lot more confident in my cooking now," Yui replied with a relieved smile.

"You know...

Chapter 247: Mai Sakurajima's "Mischievous Plan"

Kotomi was about to respond to Utaha's invitation when, to her surprise, the senior playfully pinched her petite nose before she could utter a word.

"Utaha-senpai!"

Kotomi raised her small fists in protest. Why did everyone seem to love pinching her nose?

Unacceptable! The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I'm going home to pinch Aimi's nose later!

Could her nose really be so irresistibly pinchable?

Realizing her teasing had gone too far, Utaha q...

Chapter 335: A Message from Chapter Master Leiva

"Gulp."

This golden figure, just like Whitebeard, is ridiculously strong!

From Sanguinius, Luffy could feel the same overwhelming sense of dread he once experienced two years ago at Marineford. Back then, he had faced the man hailed as the strongest of the Four Emperors.

Was Sanguinius even stronger? If so, by how much? Sorry, but Luffy's mind couldn't yet grasp such distinctions.

Among the top-tier warriors Luffy had encountered, the three Marine Admirals wer...

Chapter 334: Kicking the Addiction to Being a Pirate King

What is an ideal? It is the imagined goal derived from rational thinking, a vision of perfection, and hope for the future. It is the aspiration to achieve the pinnacle of perfection in some pursuit.

"Becoming the Pirate King?"

Over her journey, after becoming the commanding officer of the "Sisters of Battle" division, Alyssa had heard many of her subordinates speak about their ideals.

Some wished to serve the Empire with glory, others sought self-improvement throug...

Chapter 265: The Arrogant Transmigrator

[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 7): Alright, let's get back on topic. Yue-chan, go ahead and start drawing the three participants for this task.]

[Arifureta (Level 5, Stage 5 / Group Leader): Got it.]

The other group members fell silent, waiting eagerly for the task participants to be announced.

Moments later, the results appeared in the group chat window.

[Ding! Task participants have been selected!]
[Participants for this mission: Arifureta (Level 5, Stage 5 / Group Leader...

Chapter 264: New Mission Issued

Within the depths of the Orcus labyrinth, a blond-haired youth around 17 or 18 years old was engaged in combat with a serpentine monster. However, the youth clearly had the upper hand. Wielding a massive greatsword, he cut through the serpent with splashes of blood staining the stone floor.

Before long, the serpent was vanquished, collapsing lifelessly under the youth's blade. Its body dissolved into light, granting the youth 10 points of "Enhancement Points."

"Another hundred Enh...

Chapter 534: Going Home Together

The night deepened, and the autumn wind grew chill. The bustling crowds on the streets thinned, and the lively atmosphere of the festival began to wane. The ground was littered with paper scraps and trash, and only a few sanitation workers could be seen sweeping up the remnants.

Silence reclaimed the land, and the once-rowdy city gradually quieted under the clear moonlight, which poured down like a cool stream, casting the night in a gentle glow.

Kaguya walked toward Natsumi, who ...

Chapter 35: A Brief Reunion

After a thousand years, old friends were reunited.

They sat together beneath the Hidden Dragon Tree, drinking in silence, careful not to disrupt the rare tranquility of the moment.

This reunion was far too precious for them.

Sitting side by side, they savored the unspoken understanding between them, basking in the presence of each other. This alone was enough—a cherished moment too valuable to waste on words.

But alas, time spares no one.

The Azhdaha who n...

Chapter 246: Utaha Kasumigaoka: Could She Have a Crush on Kotomi?

Grateful and unable to resist the mouthwatering braised pork, Kotomi Izumi readily accepted Yui Hachiman's offer.

"Yui! Thank you so much—you're an angel! Time to dig in!"

"Eat slowly, okay?" Yui reminded her gently.

But reminding Kotomi about table manners was like telling a star not to shine—she devoured her food with gusto, completely unfazed.

Her appetite was nothing short of astonishing, especially considering she had polished off 20 large meat buns just that ...

Chapter 245: Offering “Meat” to Megumi’s Lips

"Here... here are your meat buns."

The store clerk's hands trembled as they carefully placed 20 large meat buns into two kraft paper bags—one filled with pork-and-scallion buns and the other with pork-and-celery buns. They also handed over a cup of sweetened soy milk.

Kotomi accepted the bags, initially planning to find a seat and enjoy her meal. However, seeing that the convenience store had no seating, she decided to leave, eating as she walked.

To savor the buns, Kotomi...

Chapter 333: What Kind of King Do You Want to Be?

This water-covered planet was an exceptionally unique celestial body, with a dense, multi-layered cloud cover and unpredictable weather patterns.

At this moment, floating fortresses and fleets stationed about 500 kilometers above the planet's surface, within its near-earth orbit, were not particularly conspicuous. (PS: Heights ranging from 200–2000 kilometers above the sea level are classified as near-earth orbit.)

Given the average intelligence level and technological developme...

Chapter 332: Unexplained Repetition and Obsession

"Hmm, is it evening already?"

It was sunset (6 PM–7 PM), the sky dim yet not entirely dark.

The palace, illuminated by numerous lamps, gleamed as brightly as the sunlit day. The vaulted ceiling, decorated with colorful glass reliefs of mystical beasts, coiled and spiraled several dozen meters above the ground.

"What a surprise… What's wrong with me? I actually spent so long contemplating such a matter."

Throwing off the blanket draped over her, Selene, dressed in a...

Chapter 263: Returning to Arifureta World

When Eriri entered the Einzbern Castle, all the homunculi she encountered bowed respectfully to her.

To these silver-haired, red-eyed maids, Eriri was their true master, her priority surpassing even that of Illya and Irisviel.

Before long, Eriri came across Illya wandering around the grand castle, with Irisviel following closely behind her.

Unlike the emotionally detached homunculus maids, Illya was full of life, and while Irisviel was gentle, she also had a playful streak.<...

Chapter 262: A Different Einzbern

[Fubuki (Level 4, Stage 9): The designated invitation is quite a valuable item. Although it costs 1 million points, being able to join the chat group is absolutely worth it.]

[Rias (Level 5, Stage 1): Exactly. Spending 1 million points to give someone the chance to change their destiny is completely reasonable. While I don't have many points left, I've saved enough to purchase a designated invitation. I'd like to join this round of selections!]

[Fubuki (Level 4, Stage 9): You're r...

Chapter 34: Liyue Chapter

"It has been a while, Lady Furina."

Amidst the boundless waters, the Oceanid bowed reverently to Felina.

"You knew I would come looking for you?"

Felina gazed calmly at the Oceanid before her.

When Fontaine's people are dissolved by Primordial Seawater, they transform into Oceanids and return to the eternal waters.

And the Oceanid standing before her now was none other than the former maid, Aishi.

Faced with Felina's question, Aishi shook her head.

"I...

Chapter 533: The Thousand Years of Death

Under the cold and serene moonlight, Artemisia stood completely enraged. The audacity of this insolent little girl to mar her face was an unforgivable insult. Her heart surged with a murderous intent so intense it seemed tangible.

As Artemisia gripped her glowing sword, she stepped closer and closer to Natsumi, her every movement deliberate, exuding an aura of cold menace. Natsumi, sprawled on the ground, had already succumbed to despair. She realized there was no escape—no miracle wo...

Chapter 244: Oh No, It’s Monday?!

Actually, Megumi wasn't particularly craving cake; she simply wanted Kotomi to "make it up" to her somehow. Using the missed opportunity to buy cake as an excuse was just her way of bringing it up.

As the saying goes, "The wine-lover's heart is not in the cup." What Megumi truly wanted wasn't a cake from Dango Bakery, nor one handmade by Kotomi. The "cake" Megumi was eyeing was Kotomi herself.

Seeing that Kotomi was seriously about to head over to her place to bake a cake, Megumi'...

Chapter 243: The One in Kotomi’s Painting Must Be Me!

"Kotomi, we'll be leaving now."

"Bye-bye~"

After saying their goodbyes, Kotomi waved off Ruka Ishikawa and the other members, who believed her excuse of wanting to stay back and review her painting for possible adjustments.

With the National Youth Art Competition's deadline looming, no one found her reasoning suspicious and promptly left the art room without further probing.

However, Kotomi had no intention of revisiting her painting. While the competition was indeed i...

Chapter 331: To Take Them or Not?

Honkai Dimension, Imperial Capital, Selene's Grand Palace.

A gentle breeze stirred under the clear sky, where a few white clouds lazily drifted across the pristine blue expanse.

Within the palace city, the Imperial Guard Headquarters was bustling with activity. Servants and clerks hurried about without pause, while Astartes warriors in power armor of varying livery filled the area.

Located in the outer ring of the Grand Palace near the palace city, the Imperial Guard Headqua...

Chapter 330: Break Through the Earth!

"—Grow!"

With Selene's command, the chasm caused by the "Eurasian Sky Disaster" was entirely covered in tangible violet-red Honkai Energy Crystals.

The ridged mountains and compacted earth began to quake violently.

The ground fractured inch by inch, forming dense, intricate cracks. From these fissures, concentrated Honkai Energy surged forth like torrents, shooting into the sky and dyeing the heavens a terrifying blood-red.

Buzz—buzz—buzz!

Chapter 261: The Final Hope Extinguished and Return

"What did you say? Of course, Onee-chan likes me more!" Enju Aihara shouted indignantly, rushing forward to tightly cling to Eriri's left arm. The two girls stood just inches apart, glaring fiercely at each other.

"She likes me more!"

"She likes me most!"

"No, she likes me!"

"No, it's me she loves the most!"

"Tina thinks Onee-chan likes me the most," Tina suddenly declared, refusing to fall behind as she latched onto Eriri's right arm, joining the heated rivalry ...

Chapter 260: Kohina Hiruko

Kisara Tendo remained silent. Although she had not yet developed romantic feelings for Rentaro Satomi, the death of her childhood friend dealt her a significant emotional blow.

Seitenshi, too, was at a loss for words. Eriri's casual act of tossing Rentaro into the cube world had deeply unsettled her.

What's more, the scene of Kikunojou Tendo shown on the screen earlier had left her heart sinking. Considering the hundredfold time differential, over two hours had already passed sinc...

Chapter 532: The Despairing Girl

As Ryouko Kusakabe stood, bewildered by Kaguya's cryptic words, Kaguya turned around with a smile and said, "If you have time, come visit my house sometime. Besides, Origami Tobiichi has missed you a lot. Don't worry—we're not going to eat you."

"Who—who's scared? Haha, ha... hahahaha." Ryouko Kusakabe let out a dry laugh that sounded entirely unconvincing.

"I have something to take care of right now. I'll be back later. You all go ahead and enjoy yourselves," Kaguya said, tur...

Chapter 33: I Will Always Love You

Originally, her relatives were kind and friendly. However, the moment they realized the inheritance had been spent, their attitudes changed completely.

She became an unwanted burden. No matter which house she stayed at, she was treated like a dirty, unwanted ball being kicked around.

Gradually, she came to understand one thing: although she stayed in many homes, none of them were truly hers.

She was never truly part of those families.

Thus, her life of living under oth...

Chapter 32: Lin's Story

Performances were Furina's forte—Felina had absolutely no talent in this area.

What could she possibly do?

"Huh? What's going on with Lady Furina?

"Why is she just standing on stage without moving?"

"Is she unprepared? Or has she forgotten the lyrics?"

"Don't be ridiculous! Lady Furina is Fontaine's greatest star—there's no way she'd forget the lyrics!"

"Maybe she's not feeling well?"

The audience's chatter grew louder, and some murmurs of doubt b...

Chapter 242: The “Promise” in the Art Room

Before her stood Iroha with a determined smile. Aimi, knowing her best friend's usual playful and teasing nature, was well aware that Iroha could be sincere and utterly serious when it truly mattered.

This was one of those moments.

To Aimi, the usually bright and carefree smile now seemed unbearably glaring.

Until recently, Iroha had been indifferent about the topic of high school applications. If nothing changed, she'd probably only start thinking about it on the eve of the...
