"Not good."

Li Chen's expression was somewhat solemn.

This Eerie Monsters has actually started to disintegrate on its own!!

He wanted to release all the Black Mist within his body, the source of the Black Mist.

At this moment, many trainees felt a sense of fear as they watched the rapidly spreading Black Mist in the air.

The terrifying image of the Black Mist lingered in everyone's minds.

They knew that everything in the world was caused by this Black Mist, and if the Black Mist spread here, everything would fall into complete chaos.

However, a glint of light flickered in Li Chen's eyes, and the stinging sensation in his right hand returned, emitting a black light.

Even its wings, which should have been white, turned completely black at this moment, like the wings of Satan, terrifying and eerie.

He glanced at the large-eyed Eerie Monsters releasing Black Mist, a hint of hesitation flashing across his face before he rushed over. This was the perfect opportunity.

The chance to reach the King's Right Hand into that Eerie Monsters body.

In an instant, Li Chen's figure began to fly through the air like a ghost, with a terrifying mental force blocking his way.

But that was instantly dispelled by the strange tattoo on his right hand.

Those large, Eerie Monsters eyeballs seemed to have noticed Li Chen's arrival, and actually began to emit mournful cries.

Like a bullied child, complaining.

Perhaps even Li Chen didn't notice that his appearance had been changed, with black patterns spreading from his arms to his neck.

Without hesitation, Li Chen instantly plunged his hand into the large-eyed Eerie Monsters's body and began searching for the black substance.

At that moment, he could feel as if his right hand had entered a quagmire.

Li Chen's expression changed drastically in an instant. He tried to pull his hand away, but it was too late.

A sharp pain swept over me.

It wasn't that he didn't touch the black substance; rather, the mud pit was formed from that black substance.

At this moment, as if they had found a better vessel, they began to rush into Li Chen's body.

The tearing pain made Li Chen scream in agony.

"Damn it, just how much black substance is inside this Withered Sea Realm cultivator?!"

Because of the obstruction of the Black Mist, the trainees could not see the scene inside, and did not even know what was going on.

The Black Mist actually began to shrink rapidly.

At this moment, Li Chen's expression grew increasingly grim. His right hand seemed to be completely covered in black, and countless black substances, like insects, pierced through his pores and entered his body.

He could feel his body getting hot, his heart pounding, and something inside him wanting to burst out.

Even the pain was starting to decrease; was he about to turn into Eerie Monsters?

A hint of resentment flashed in Li Chen's eyes.

He had absorbed too much black matter, and at this moment his physique was rapidly approaching that of those Withered Sea Realm Eerie Monsters.

The Eerie Monsters, large-eyed body before him was even being absorbed and began to shrink. Its enormous eyeballs were spinning wildly, but they had lost their luster and were now dull and lifeless.

I don't know how much time has passed...

Li Chen's consciousness was even beginning to fade. He didn't want to close his eyes, because if he did, he might never wake up again.

He still had many things to resolve, and he didn't want to fall asleep like this.

At that moment, a detached voice echoed in his mind, though there seemed to be some surprise in that voice.

"Oh? You've already reached the bottleneck so quickly?"

"It's only been a few days?"

"So be it... so be it... in the end, this Forbidden Power is just too terrifying."

"But it didn't disappoint me; I've finally embarked on this path."

As the sound faded away, Li Chen closed his eyes, though his breathing was no longer even.

It seemed like she was just asleep, as if nothing had happened.

But the Black Mist emanating from that Eerie Monsters completely dissipated, and his withered body collapsed to the ground.

It created ripples.

Many students were stunned. This Eerie Monsters died just by releasing a Black Mist?

However, they soon saw Li Chen, who was still floating in the air, slowly descending. He was lying flat on his back, and his aura was unstable.

"Chen-ge!!"

Su Zhe looked extremely anxious, watching Li Chen land, but at this moment, countless Eerie Monsters were still standing in front of him.

He hesitated, unsure whether to go rescue Chen-ge or stay and continue guarding him.

But soon a black figure flashed in front of him; it was the werewolf he had fought in the Secret Realm before.

He grinned and said, "Su Pangzi, get lost! I want your 'Merit'!"

Su Zhe nodded gratefully and immediately grabbed the hammer and ran towards Li Chen's direction.

He knew perfectly well that the werewolf was arrogant, and helping him was just a way of saying he was doing something wrong. However, he didn't know what Chen-ge had gone through at the moment, but he could see clearly from below that the big-eyed Eerie Monsters had been killed by Chen-ge.

However, Li Chen's fate is currently unknown, and Su Zhe would never abandon his brother.

This time, he'll be the one to protect Chen-ge!!

Jianping, who was fighting a deformed creature not far away, also noticed the death of the big-eyed, Eerie Monsters.

She even saw Li Chen fall, and a hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes.

However, he held the sword very steadily in his hand.

Buzz~

A piercing roar rang out.

A faint red aura of malevolence seemed to emanate from his Demon Blade.

A red glint flashed in Jianping's eyes.

"Using my power, the way of slaughter."

"Sweep everything away!!"

In an instant, a destructive sword beam shot into the sky, and before the deformed creature could react, it was already in two.

But it didn't die; in fact, its four legs, which resembled dog paws, were frantically moving, trying to come together.

These Eerie Monsters possess remarkable resilience; as long as their weaknesses are not exploited, they will reassemble.

But Jianping couldn't care less about that at the moment. With his Demon Blade drawn, everything would become a victim of his sword.

In an instant, he unleashed dozens of sword energies.

That vile body, writhing on the ground, was disintegrated once more.

At that moment, a fireball descended from the sky.

It was Su Xian's magic.

As the final sorcerer, his task was to clean up the dried-up, mangled corpses of the Eerie Monsters, ensuring they had no chance of escaping.

Boom!

A tremendous explosion resounded.

Jianping sheathed his Demon Blade, not even glancing at the Eerie Monsters creature.
