At this moment, Qin Fengming, wrapped in the black fog, had already stopped moving completely. His entire body seemed like a stone carving or clay statue. Aside from his aura being extremely powerful, everything else about him was like a dummy.
The black runes constantly circling around him had now reached an astonishing speed. As the countless incantations spun rapidly, they seemed to form a layer of rune barrier, enclosing Qin Fengming's entire body within.
As the enormous magical artifact outside Qin Fengming rotated and the black rune barrier emerged, only moments later, Qin Fengming, enclosed at the center, seemed to have been violently struck, squeezed, and pulled by something. His entire body twisted and deformed, nearly becoming unrecognizable.
"Ah~~~"
The enormous force of pulling and compression had become unbearable even for Qin Fengming. A shriek of excruciating agony rang out from within the cage formed by the endlessly rotating artifact, echoing back and forth through the enormous cavern and refusing to settle.
Just as Qin Fengming was struggling to endure the sudden, immense discomfort, the endlessly rotating black runes suddenly blazed with dark light. The pitch-black fog, black as ink, instantly transformed into a pair of dark palms that abruptly covered Qin Fengming's body.
Runes flickered across those dark palms. In a flash, they plunged into Qin Fengming's body, as though his body were transparent air and offered not the slightest resistance.
When the palms penetrated his body, Qin Fengming, who had been shrieking violently moments before, made not another sound. He simply floated in the air. As the pair of dark hands withdrew, they pulled a transparent human-shaped object out of Qin Fengming's body.
The transparent human-shaped object that emerged from Qin Fengming's body seemed to struggle desperately to break free from the grasp of the dark palms,
