Bai Shuang's worldview collapsed at this moment. This hadn't even begun, and the god within her was already afraid.

She truly didn't understand what this god was afraid of.

You are a god with boundless power, what is there to fear?

Are even gods so cowardly?

This situation also made her feel uneasy.

Although she didn't understand, there must be a reason for all of this.

She wasn't afraid only because she was ignorant.

But she wouldn't give up so easily; having just become Contractor, she wasn't willing to let it end like this.

Even if the gods are afraid, she will still intervene.

She looked at the man standing in the air, the boss of this Instance, and a hint of madness flashed in her eyes.

She is determined to defeat this person.

She is Contractor, someone who wields the power of gods; she will surely succeed!

Kill him!

Under her forceful command, even the most terrifying shadow had to obey her orders.

Because He cannot break the contract.

Even if that contract was not entered into voluntarily by Him.

In an instant, countless shadowy tentacles spread across the sky, rushing towards the BOSS standing in the air.

The shadows, like snakes, quickly surrounded the people in the air, gradually tightening their grip.

The person in the air struggled desperately, but the power of those shadows was so strong that no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from them.

His hands and feet were restrained, his neck was tightened, and the shadows grew larger, enveloping every part of his body.

After an unknown amount of time, the person in the air finally stopped struggling. He may have suffocated, or his neck may have been broken.

Bai Shuang found it unbelievable; had she really killed him so easily?

Wasn't he someone even the gods feared? How could he be killed so easily?

In the air, the shadows dispersed, but there were no corpses left. It seemed her guess was correct; the man was indeed not dead.

Bai Shuang felt a sense of unease and quickly turned around, only to see a man standing behind her.

It is the boss of the Instance.

He didn't know when he broke free from the shadows, nor when he had been standing there.

But Bai Shuang wasn't too surprised; she hadn't thought the person in front of her was someone who could be easily killed.

The boss in front of her took a step forward, and at that moment, the shadow on the ground suddenly spread, connecting her with the boss.

The BOSS immediately stopped moving, as if it were glued to the ground and could no longer move.

The countless shadowy tentacles spread out again, transforming into sharp blades that pierced the man in front of them.

The sharp blade easily pierced the man's body, leaving many transparent holes.

The shadows danced wildly, tearing the man's body to shreds in an instant.

But Bai Shuang still had a bad feeling; she felt that the BOSS couldn't have died so easily.

She guessed right again; the man's figure reappeared behind her.

Bai Shuang felt angry, and countless dark shadows pounced on the man again.

But the result was the same; even though the shadow tore the man apart again, he would still appear unharmed behind her.

No matter what method she used, she couldn't kill the man.

Bai Shuang forcibly suppressed her impatience, realizing that doing so was pointless.

This is the BOSS's territory; everything is under his control, and what she sees may not be real.

She cannot judge solely by her own eyes; her eyes will deceive her.

Faced with this situation, there was only one way left: she had to break through this barrier.

This would require even more strength, and her body might not be able to withstand it, but she couldn't care less at the moment.

She shouldn't hold back in the face of such a being.

She must unleash the power of this deity as much as possible.

Otherwise, she simply wouldn't be able to defeat this man.

Suddenly, shadows enveloped her, and darkness enveloped the area. The sky was no longer dark red, but completely black.

Even the eye in the sky disappeared.

There was almost no light around, as if the whole world had been plunged into darkness.

Darkness is the greatest shadow.

At this moment, everything was shrouded in shadow.

Even the boss of the Instance is no exception; the shadow is frantically encroaching on his domain, threatening to devour everything within it.

Faced with this endless darkness, Bai Shuang finally felt a glimmer of joy; she knew that her method would work.

Once darkness engulfs this area, without the domain's support, the BOSS's power will be greatly weakened, and then she will be able to win.

However, a light suddenly flashed before her eyes, cutting through the darkness.

It was a short knife gleaming with a blood-red light, cleaving the darkness in two and bringing a different kind of light to the world.

A sinister and terrifying light!

Once the shadow is cut open, it is quickly corroded, becoming smaller and smaller, and light reappears in the world.

Bai Shuang watched all of this in shock. She saw it clearly: the BOSS had used a short knife to destroy the shadow. She couldn't understand how a knife could have such power.

Soon, the darkness brought by the shadows completely collapsed, and everything returned to normal.

The crimson eye reappeared in the sky.

That eye gleamed with a cruel light, coldly surveying everything around it, inspiring both despair and terror.

The shadow within her began to stir, even attempting to defy her commands.

She could feel the shadow within her growing even more terrifying.

She simply couldn't understand why the god within her was so afraid. That was a god, an existence that mortals could only look up to, yet it was terrified of a mere mortal.

She suddenly felt that she, as Contractor, was worthless, and even the god within her was nothing in front of this man.

She fell into despair once again.

The boss before her was someone she absolutely could not defeat.

Even the gods could not defeat him.

She was on the verge of a breakdown. She had finally become Contractor, thinking she could unleash her full power, but she never expected to encounter such an existence.

"Ah--"

Bai Shuang screamed in defiance, her eyes revealing an even stronger madness.

At this moment, she was desperate; she had to unleash the full power of this god, even if it meant her death.

She was willing to die alongside the person in front of her!

Ignoring the resistance of the shadow within her, she once again harnessed its power.

The shadows enveloped her completely, and at that moment, the shadows of all the objects around her seemed to writhe, as if they had come to life.

Countless shadows launched an attack, but not at the BOSS in front of them; instead, they rushed towards the eye in the sky.

Perhaps that's the key to breaking through this barrier.

However, at that moment, the shadows around her burst into flames.

An eerie green flame enveloped her.
