The Golden-clothed Rat-man was completely bewildered; he had never witnessed such a terrifying red glow, red to the point of turning purple, purple to the point of turning black!
Then that terrifying aura affected his eyes, tears flowed continuously, and his ability was forcibly dispelled.
The stronger the ability, often the greater the side effects.
"Eye of Qi Observation," actually consumes quite a bit of energy.
Just like "Control," each use entails a significant expense of Spirit Essence, so it is not lightly used except when necessary.
"Was there anyone with Qi Fortune this strong in the last Epoch..."
"Alas, too much memory is lost; I can’t remember."
He forcibly stabilized his spirit and paid a sum of Spirit Essence to check the other humans in the group.
The red glow was indeed a little smaller, within an acceptable range...
Only the person he was fighting with on the battlefield had an exceptionally terrifying Qi Fortune!
What did this mean?
The Golden-clothed Rat King pondered quickly in his mind, "This is a civilization on the rise, reaping no small gains in recent years; thus, each person, to varying degrees, possesses some Qi Fortune."
When a civilization is prospering, everyone enjoys the benefits of the era, and thus even the common people would be imbued with "Luck."
"The core of this rising civilization lies with this Combat Master, Lu Yuan!"
"If I could kill him, the civilization would be directly crippled!"
"The Luck of the civilization will be rewritten!"
Rewriting the Luck of a civilization would yield a massive amount of Spirit Essence!
This was also one of the reasons for the frequent wars in the Eighth Epoch!
However, the Mouse King was, after all, a Stranger who survived the Epoch Disaster; his few whiskers by his mouth trembled slightly, quickly suppressing this greed.
Because... their Shu Mi Dam Civilization is not the protagonist of this era.
They are just an Alien Civilization.

Merely minor characters.
Their population was already fixed, unable to increase further!
Nor could they develop technology.
All they had to do was... enjoy life.
And... to survive!
To live on until the next Epoch!
It was still early in the Ninth Epoch, considering "survival" seemed somewhat premature.
If they could forge a good relationship with a civilization with great potential early in the Epoch, it might be a good thing in the distant future.
The Golden-clothed Rat-man thought to this point, eyes sharp, he raised his Double-bladed sword.
But, even if you possess deep Luck, our Shu Mi Dam Civilization will not easily admit defeat!
Come on, let me test just how much you weigh!
"Yellow Sand!" he shouted, a layer of greyish light bloomed from him.
The dust on the ground rose, forming a yellow storm that enveloped the two of them.
...
From Lu Yuan’s perspective, the Golden-clothed Rat-man, who had been brewing a major move for a long time, finally made a move.
He too let out a soft sigh, still somewhat worried that this guy would suddenly act up and frame him.
Surrounding him, a large group of black-clothed Ratmen erupted into frenetic cheers again.
Their shrill, sizzling squeals seemed extremely fervent.
Shu Huangfeng shouted loudly, "Be careful, my Yellow Sand Domain can obstruct vision and reduce your spiritual power!"
Lu Yuan nodded, the Yellow Sand scraping his face indeed produced a strange aural hallucination.
However, with the Tree of Life in his head now, his recovery ability was astonishing, so he wasn’t concerned about this slight damage.
A flash of light in his eyes.
[Shu Mi Dam Civilization, Shu Huangfeng, Stranger.]
[Despite losing most of their memories in the Epoch Disaster, this group of Strangers has still managed to survive until now and has started a new path in the Ninth Epoch in the form of caravans.]
[The Ratmen in golden clothing are either Combat Masters or Craftsman Masters.]

Obviously, this civilization also had methods to counter surveillance.
Possibly as a warning, or perhaps to show off their own strength, the Golden-clothed Rat-man purposely raised his treasured sword, "These Fiery Fire Double Swords of mine can greatly enhance the Extraordinary Spark, giving it the ability to harm the Soul, comparable to the Eternal Spark!"
His words, through some translation mechanism, were spread in a way that people could understand.
"But swords are merciless and can easily cause harm."
"Shall we fight without weapons, just touching is enough, alright?"
Lu Yuan didn’t get a chance to respond when he actually threw his swords on the ground with a "ping pong" sound.
The black-clothed Ratmen were still screaming loudly, extremely ferocious.
But the more intelligent Ratmen were starting to worry.
Your Majesty, what madness has taken you to suddenly give up the advantage of your Epic Level weapons for a fistfight?
The Mouse King flicked his tail and scoffed silently in his heart, what do you know?
This man’s Luck is so strong, even if I use all my strength, I might not be able to beat him!
Right now, I want to make friends through martial arts, to seek peace... even if I don’t win, I can have an excuse to gracefully step down, that I didn’t use an Epic Level weapon!
The Mouse King put on a pair of golden silk gloves.
Lu Yuan squinted his eyes, unsure of what the other side was up to, and also with a "clang," threw his weapon on the ground.
Deep inside, he called for the Conch to buff him.
"How many buffs?"
"The more, the better!"
Does this count as ganging up?
Clearly... it doesn’t.
Because the Golden-clothed Rat-man must also have some buff from Ability users... this is a demonstration of the strength of a civilization, just like weapons and equipment.
The Conch began simulating Divine Skills, continuously applying enhancements to Lu Yuan.
She was indeed much stronger than thirty years ago; buffs like "Super Speed Response," "Strength Enhancement," "Agility Enhancement," "Spiritual Protection," and others were layered onto Lu Yuan one by one.
