11: Domain crushing

"Mission failed, the target is powerful, retreat!"

The three Divine Gene Company Recyclers immediately turned around, attempting to flee.

"Battle Domain!"

Zhou Xing whispered, and his entire body shot forward like a bolt of lightning.

Invisible energy directly swept forward, enveloping the three individuals.

The three Recyclers suddenly found their legs feeling as heavy as lead, and their speed plummeted.

*Squelch!*

By then, Zhou Xing had already charged right up to them.

With a swing of his battle-axe, a head went flying.

Before losing consciousness, the man could even see his own headless body.

Immediately after, Zhou Xing's left fist smashed into the chest of another Recycler.

*Bang!*

The immense force caused the man's chest to cave in, sending him flying backward to slam hard against the wall, where he soon fell silent.

The one running at the very front was the lead Recycler; he didn't even dare to look back.

He exerted all his strength, trying to drag himself away.

However, as Zhou Xing drew closer, he too fell within the range of the Battle Domain.

His speed dropped sharply, and with a flash, Zhou Xing accelerated and appeared directly in front of him.

"Go!"

With a kick, the lead Recycler's body flew back the way he came like a broken kite.

He ended up landing right at Lin Yue's feet.

"Divine... Gene... won't let you off... you... won't escape..."

Before he could finish, the man drew his last breath.

That single kick had directly shattered his internal organs.

It could be said that after his breakthrough, Zhou Xing was completely dominating the fight.

The two powerful "Hound" cyborgs hadn't even had the chance to resist.

Watching Zhou Xing's combat, Lin Yue felt a storm of shock in her heart.

Was a multi-attribute fuser really this powerful?

She was quite well-traveled, but the power Zhou Xing had just casually unleashed was nearly on par with the mid-stage of foundation condensation.

Moreover, Zhou Xing hadn't even used his full strength just now.

"How are you? Can you walk?"

Retracting his domain, Zhou Xing reached out to pull Lin Yue up.

He also used Frost Power to temporarily freeze her severe wounds to prevent excessive blood loss.

"I'm fine. But you—I didn't expect you to actually succeed in the fusion!"

Lin Yue looked at Zhou Xing with a complicated expression.

In truth, she guessed that he must be hiding something.

After all, even for a normal Awakened One, they could only cautiously fuse divinity fragments of the same attribute.

If the attributes were different, it was a near-certain death sentence.

Yet, he had successfully fused and even broken through right under her nose.

Everything was a bit too coincidental.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone," Lin Yue said, looking at Zhou Xing. "At least, not until you have the absolute power to protect yourself."

"There's a safe house three kilometers to the southwest, but the commotion just now has clearly allowed the Heavenly Eye to lock onto this location more precisely."

Lin Yue looked at Zhou Keer's neck. "Furthermore, the divinity locking agent in Keer's body is about to become uncontrollable."

At that moment, Zhou Xing suddenly pressed both hands against the ground.

Ice and fire powers surged continuously into the earth through the cracks in the ground, triggering a series of explosions.

He was trying to use the noise to distract the Heavenly Eye.

"Let's go. We'll head to the safe house you mentioned first."

After saying that, he picked up his weak sister and followed Lin Yue, quickly leaving the area.

The three of them moved rapidly through the abandoned passages.

"Left turn ahead... then another three hundred meters."

A few minutes later, a pale and panting Lin Yue pointed the way.

The safe house was located beneath an abandoned factory; it looked dilapidated on the outside, but the interior was equipped with many advanced technological devices.

This was to ensure its hidden nature.

In the eyes of many, the Divine Gene Company was a savior, but only The Watchers knew...

...that behind its glorious facade, it was stained with countless amounts of blood.

"Beep—Identity verified. Watcher Silver Wing, welcome back!"

As a synthesized mechanical voice sounded, the three of them quickly entered the safe house.

The space inside wasn't large, but it had everything they needed.

Of course, the most impressive feature was the presence of a satellite jammer.

Zhou Xing carefully placed his sister on the medical bed.

At this time, the patterns on Zhou Keer's neck were flashing incessantly; evidently, the divinity locking agent was taking effect.

"Have your sister take the divinity crystal first!"

Lin Yue looked at Zhou Xing. "The earlier we intervene in her condition, the better. The effect of the divinity locking agent only lasts six hours. If we make it through this period, we'll be safe."

"Thank you for helping me, Big Sister," Zhou Keer spoke weakly.

"Hehe, your brother has already joined our Watchers, so you are one of our own too.

Besides, helping every ordinary person suffering from divinity erosion is one of our three major codes."

Lin Yue said to Zhou Keer with a smile.

"I'll go tend to my wounds first. After Keer uses it, she should fall unconscious for a while; it will take about one or two hours to start working."

With that, Lin Yue went into a room in the safe house to treat her injuries.

Zhou Xing nodded and took out the deep blue divinity crystal from his robe.

"Bear with it a little, Keer."

Saying so, Zhou Xing gently pressed the divinity crystal against Zhou Keer's forehead.

*Hum!*

The crystal melted instantly, turning into countless tiny points of light that surged into her body.

Zhou Keer's body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Her mouth opened slightly, letting out pained whimpers.

Zhou Xing's nerves were taut.

At this moment, the patterns on Zhou Keer's body that had been suppressed by the inhibitor seemed to sense a threat.

They flared with golden light, emerging once more.

However, a deep blue light suddenly erupted from within Zhou Keer's body, enveloping her entirely.

The golden patterns began to recede, and at the same time, on the surface of Zhou Keer's skin...

...foul-smelling impurities began to continuously emerge.

Lin Yue hadn't lied to him; it was exactly as she said!

These impurities were the specific "toxins" hidden in her body from long-term consumption of the Divine Gene Company's divinity inhibitors.

Now that these "toxin" impurities were being expelled through Keer's pores, a hidden danger had been removed.

Watching the changes in his sister, Zhou Xing's furrowed brow finally relaxed, and he breathed a temporary sigh of relief.

"Brother... I feel so light..."

After a long while, Zhou Keer slightly opened her eyes and spoke softly.

But soon, her nose twitched.

She frowned. "Brother... what's that smell? Why is it so bad?"
