"What is this thing?"
Not only were the well-informed Emissaries of Heaven dumbfounded.
Chu Qing was equally baffled when he saw the thing that had suddenly appeared before him.
Because this thing... was fucking black.
It was a black humanoid creature.
Its entire body was pitch-black, with only its eyes glowing red.
When it opened its mouth, the inside was white, and saw-like teeth spun within it:
"Chu Qing, defeat me, and only then can you continue down the Overlord Path."
"Otherwise, this is as far as you go!"
At this moment:
Chu Qing realized that the surrounding space had stabilized.

Chu Qing said in astonishment, "There is Great Terror on the Ancient Mythological Path."
"But I have never heard of Great Terror on the Overlord Path."
The shuttles and eyeballs high in the sky also agreed.
Since ancient times, whether it was Heaven's Overlord Path or the Overlord Paths of the Four Directions, there had never been any Great Terror.
Nor had there ever been a pitch-black fellow who came out to block someone walking the Overlord Path.
The pitch-black humanoid creature said, "I am not Great Terror. I was sent by a restricted zone giant specifically to hunt you down."
The Emissaries of Heaven high in the sky came to a sudden realization. "Haha, Chu Qing is getting his comeuppance!"
"This guy has been far too arrogant. He should have gotten his comeuppance long ago!"
"He ended the Black Tide and caused it to end early."
"Now, his retribution has come!"
Chu Qing raised his head and looked at the sky.
The Emissaries of Heaven immediately sealed their mouths shut.
