Li Chen stopped advancing on the red steps.
The expanse stretched endlessly, and moving forward was pointless; he wanted to get out.
He knew he couldn't stay in the Throne Space forever.
But how do we get out now?
His consciousness could not return to his body, and he could not even sense any signs of life in his body, as if he had died completely.
Click~
Click~
Just as he was pondering, a shattering sound rang out, and the sound of breaking began to appear around the red staircase, as if space itself were being torn apart.
A crimson gust of wind howled in, accompanied by a strange murmur.
The eerie sound threw his mind into chaos, and in an instant, everything in front of him began to become extremely strange.
The red steps beneath his feet transformed into writhing flesh and blood, and it seemed as if something in this space was watching him.
Bang!
Suddenly a sound rang out, Li Chen's mind instantly cleared, everything returning to its original state.
He looked up into the depths of darkness and murmured, "Flesh and blood, gaze... It seems this Throne Space holds many secrets."
He should leave now; he can come back and explore everything here another time.
He sensed it; the Dark Matter within his body was guiding him.
At this moment, he slowly raised his right hand, and faint black patterns began to emerge from beneath the sword blade suspended on the black wings.
For at least a moment, the stinging sensation was a signal from the outside world to one's own body.
In an instant~
Everything in front of Li Chen began to dissipate. His expression was somewhat indifferent. He glanced at the red staircase and murmured, "There will come a day when none of these gates can stop me."
"I want to see what's at the end of your road."
No. 2 Slaughter Ground
The battle was not over, and the Eerie Monsters of the Withered Sea Realm did not weaken with the passage of time.
Instead, it constantly gains energy by devouring weaker Eerie Monsters to regenerate its body.
"Chen-ge! Are you still alive? Say something!"
"Lying here isn't a solution!"
Su Zhe sat next to Li Chen, tilting his head and looking mournful.
At this moment, Li Chen had already opened his eyes, and a few black lines appeared on his forehead.
I'm not dead yet.
Upon hearing the sound, Su Zhe immediately turned around, looking dejected, and exclaimed in surprise, "Chen-ge, you're awake!!"
"I thought you were going to..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Chen waved his hand, stood up, and looked at the group still fighting.
"The battle should end."
He could feel that his body had been completely transformed by the black substance during his unconsciousness, and he didn't know exactly how strong he was now.
Although his cultivation level is still at the Looking River Realm, his physical body and abilities may have improved considerably.
He moved as he pleased, slowly raising his right hand, and the Forbidden Substance flowed out of his arm like water.
It coalesced into a sword, but Li Chen frowned. He didn't like using swords, so after some modifications, it turned into a jet-black umbrella.
The umbrella, formed from Forbidden Substances, had a purpose known only to Li Chen.
Su Zhe, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed.
Umbrella?
"Holy crap, did Chen-ge wake up one morning and suddenly become an idiot? What's the use of an umbrella? I thought that sword was pretty cool."
However, he was muttering to himself. If Li Chen knew he was teasing him, he might not be able to safely get back to bed to rest today.
Li Chen gripped the umbrella handle, a slight smile playing on his lips, and murmured...
"I'll call you 'Ink,' my first weapon."
Then he looked at the Eerie Monsters, his expression turning cold.
"It's time to clean it up."
"Forbidden Power..."
Jianping, far away, was panting heavily, a red light flashing in his eyes.
"Damn it, these Eerie Monsters are getting stronger and stronger. They can actually devour the bodies of these dead Eerie Monsters to recover and improve themselves."
His hand holding the sword was already trembling slightly, not because he hadn't killed many Eerie Monsters, but because he simply couldn't kill them all.
He had never stopped fighting for such a long time. He hadn't even finished killing all the Eerie Monsters in the Withered Sea Realm when a few more walked in through the gate.
These Withered Sea Realm Eerie Monsters are constantly being replenished, while their numbers are dwindling.
They were only students at the Looking River Realm, and they didn't have that much energy, especially since they were facing off against those at the Withered Sea Realm.
Suddenly, the screams of all the Eerie Monsters rang out.
They were perfectly aligned, their gazes fixed in one direction.
Whether it was Jianping or the others, they were all somewhat bewildered at this moment, and followed suit, looking over.
They saw Li Chen holding a pitch-black umbrella, slowly walking towards them. Four black light blades surrounded him, making him look extremely eerie.
His expression was extremely cold, seemingly devoid of any emotion.
These monsters all seemed to be attracted to Li Chen.
Many trainees looked surprised and somewhat bewildered.
"What exactly is going on?"
Why are all these monsters looking at Li Chen?
Suddenly, a deafening howl rang out, and one of the Eerie Monsters at the Withered Sea Realm, ignoring the small creatures in front of him that had caused him considerable harm, charged directly at Li Chen.
At that moment, all the Eerie Monsters erupted in chaos.
Everything started because of Li Chen's appearance; they rioted.
Li Chen, holding the umbrella, had a slight smile on his face.
"Indeed, this Forbidden Substance has a tremendous attraction for these Eerie Monsters."
The black umbrella "Ink" in his hand was made from Forbidden Substances, so it naturally couldn't conceal that aura.
These Eerie Monsters naturally sensed the presence of this aura, which is why they stirred up trouble.
Seeing the Eerie Monsters charging towards him, Li Chen simply raised his hand, and light blades instantly appeared around him. These jet-black light blades were all created by the Forbidden energy emanating from "ink".
Empty~
The sound of air being cut rang out, and four neatly arranged black blades pierced through the Eerie Monsters's body in an instant, before it could even react.
This is Eerie Monsters from the Withered Sea Realm, you must know.
The onset of pain caused the Eerie Monsters to instantly begin to roar.
The pierced body did not heal immediately; instead, a black trail began to spread from the holes, seemingly devouring the Eerie Monsters body.
A hint of a smile flashed in Li Chen's eyes; he hadn't guessed wrong.
Since the Forbidden Substances are within these Eerie Monsters, and since I can control this power, can't I directly attract those Forbidden Substances to appear?
Once these Eerie Monsters lose the Forbidden Substance, they are essentially lifeless, just like the giant-eyed Eerie Monsters from before.
Their lives seem to have originated from these Forbidden Substances.
In other words, the more Forbidden Substances they have in their bodies, the stronger they become, which is why these Eerie Monsters are so obsessed with these Forbidden Substances.
It even tries to devour anything that appears.
But for these irrational creatures, this Forbidden Substance could not be fully utilized; they were merely Eerie Monsters blinded by its power.
Li Chen's light blade was born from Forbidden Substance. He was able to attract the Forbidden Substance inside the monsters and make it burst out, unlike him who directly reached into the monsters' bodies to absorb it.
Instead, he actively allowed the Forbidden Substance to be drawn to him.
While this method isn't as effective as taking direct action, it can force these Eerie Monsters to fight each other.
