Discovering that I had swallowed the fortune of one of the Heaven's Chosen, Lord Hua's expression had become rather complicated. But at this moment, only our two sides' fortunes existed here. Unless one side was devoured until only the other remained, it was impossible to stop. Thus, even though Lord Hua knew there was something strange about my fortune, he did not hesitate in the slightest to order the other Heaven's Chosen's fortunes to continue surrounding and attacking me.

Facing the fortunes rushing toward me, I began fleeing again. Even though I now knew that my fortune was different from the counterfeit one, this was no time for conceit. The current me was nothing like the me with the eighteen meridians before. Now that I had been reduced to nothing but fortune, I ultimately did not dare risk fighting many enemies alone. What if this one was merely cannon fodder Lord Hua had produced to deceive me? The next time I encountered one, it might cost me my life.

Since I did not dare try, I could only keep fleeing, continuing to shake off the Heaven's Chosen pursuing me at Lord Hua's command. Of course, after devouring one Heaven's Chosen's fortune, I was also digesting the boost in strength that fortune had given me.

Without the slightest surprise, this fortune was not powerful, so the enhancement it gave me was pitifully small. Looking at the dozen or so Heaven's Chosen's fortunes chasing me from behind, I could not help salivating a little. After all, they were fortunes, more or less. Of course, from a purely visual standpoint, these bearers of fortune looked no different from me. The key was that I could not gauge their strength.

Otherwise, I would not have needed to rely on my senses to investigate them.
