Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 123: The Hexamand Race

Two days came and went, with Xin Hongzhu still a no show. In this period thered been as many as a dozen people who went in but never returned.

Li Mo was waiting, patiently.

When it came to the lottery, there was no good or bad.

Li Mo divined again and sighed at the coins.

The accuracy of any divination relied on the tool used. The higher its quality, the more precise the verdict. Li Mos heaven, earth, and man gold coins were such tools, powerful enough to divine anyones luck beneath the Life Spring Stage 95% out of 100%.

Disaster or blessing, luck or misfortune, was something ephemeral to everything in the world. But peering into the heavens mysteries, it would carve it in stone. The lucky or unlucky fate would turn irrefutable and unbreakable.

It went without saying that if you were strong enough, if you could defy Heaven, then, by all means, just overcome any ill fate divination set for you.

If you were weak, then youd better sit tight and not play with fire by divining.

Li Mos disciple, Yao Xi, say the same thing too many times to count.

He came to a decision right then and there as he put the coins away. Before he could surpass heaven, he would never play this dangerous gamble again.

Just when Li Mo was about to venture into the time-space rupture, Xin clans three brothers arrived.

They looked it over many times and hesitated for even longer. They found themselves in a peculiar situation. They were unaware Xin Hongzhu was already inside and they feared the untold dangers that may await if they stepped foot within.

Li Mo lifted the Staff of Origin and vanished.

With this gadget, he neednt go in the old fashion way. He didnt try it before since his horoscope foretold disaster. It wouldve been such an inconvenience getting stuck in the time-space continuum.

Space warped and Li Mo popped in the forest.

Li Mo tested his direction with the Staff of Origin, until it started glowing.

Using the makeshift dowsing rod, Li Mo held the Staff of Origin as he went on his search.

The origin fragment was part of the Staff of Origin to begin with. With the two of them having a connection, it was easy to estimate its direction with the staff.

If not for Xin Hongzhu nabbing the strongest power of this world, Li Mo wouldnt have resorted to using the Staff of Origin to search for the origin fragment because this action would alert the strong enemies in the universe. 

With how the origin made world would vanish seven days later, he was left without any better choice. The world would shut itself after a week and not even the Staff of Origin could help him get in.

[Im running out of time.]

Li Mo traveled through land and sea for half a day to reach his target.

For gods sake.

The origin fragment was your most average and plain puppy in the world.

Li Mo brought the Staff of Origin to the dog. When they touched, the world of Aladdin and the Magic Lamp vanished and the puppy became a thumb-sized fragment that melded with the Staff of Origin.

Hum~

The Staff of Origin let out a sound of delight

Little Lulu, come and give me a smooch. Little Minmin, what impressive chesties you have.

When Li Mo put away the Staff of Origin and checked where he was, he heard a faint murmuring. 

Not ten meters from him, Xin Hongzhu was buck naked, her eyes narrowed, her mouth whispering sweet nothings, and her hands groping about. 

With the world of Aladdin and the Magic Lamp going up in smoke, so too did the magic lamp-made items, including Xin Hongzhus regal attire

Xin Hongzhu was in for a rude awakening. She rolled over and sat upright with a dumbstruck look.

The world of Aladdin and the Magic Lamp may have whisked away, but this place was in the wilds. So Li Mo did a u-turn and kept walking, not giving her any attention.

Stop right there!

Xin Hongzhu pulled a few long weeds around her and made a grass skirt then chased after Li Mo.

What am I doing here? What of my magic lamp? My servants? My women?!

Li Mo never missed a beat in his walk.

I said hold!

Xin Hongzhu wailed then rammed into a tree. She ended up on her tushie and cried in pain as she rubbed her forehead.

She was out of spiritual qi and could not use magical arts.

Gone, its all gone. My everlasting life, my eternal youth, my empire, my people, my women, my everythings everything is gone

Xin Hongzhu fell to her knees devastated and whining.

Li Mo had been walking for five minutes, enough time to recover his spiritual qi and use Warp.

When Li Mo was in the 1st layer of Spirit Stage, one step took him a mere hundred meters, while now it sent him five times further, speeding away like a bullet.

In mid-run, Li Mo stopped to a halt when two black-clothed men falling from the sky barred his path.

Hand over the time-space artifact if you want to live.

One man said in an odd-placed tone. 

Li Mo suddenly laughed.

The two black-clothed men were of different heights, but the contrast in heights was in fact a sharp one.

The tall guy had his upper body bloated and looked no different from a ball. His appearance screamed unnatural. While the shorty looked quite the normal fatty by normal standards, compared to the other one.

The small one asked in the same voice, Why are you laughing?

None of them knew Li Mo. They stopped him because they sensed the Staff of Origins signature on his body.

It seems youve always been on Earth, Domon.

The fatty that looked like a ball was somewhat shocked and asked in a hoarse voice, You know me?

Li Mo asked the shorty, You are a human, yet you side with the Hexamand race?

The shorty pulled out his cutlass, Domon, this fellow is too weird. We cant let him live!

The shortys disguise was meaningless beneath Li Mos Celestial Eyes gaze. The same applied to the six-armed Domon. 

Pff

The tall ones clothes burs as he revealed all his arms.

The Hexamand race was a strong alien race in the universe. It was this races devastating invasions fault for plunging Earth into the Great Galactic Era.

Li Mo was always under the impression the Hexamand race would invade Earth two years later. But only now realized, they were already here, to begin with, in hiding!

To top it all off, some humans were in cahoots with them!

Dang~

Two of Domons arms beat a gong, another two a drum, and the last pair were fastened with steel needles, aiming for Li Mo.

The gonging would make ones mind swoon, and the drumming would shake his core.

Domon jumped poised to skewer Li Mo with his needles.
