Here comes the suffering!
Suffering descends!
"Darkness" had returned, and "Young Man" had found a new source of suffering.
Under the edict, the light before Fu Qian didn't last even three seconds before a different kind of agony surged up.
It was clearly different from "bliss," so even with experience, driving this light away was still difficult. He had to feel his way through it all over again.
But look on the bright side: that meant he'd gained a new kind of suffering to experience.
Besides, he was figuring it out quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the pain had once again destroyed his perception, plunging him into a self-made "black box," with no idea where the way out lay.
But Fu Qian didn't hesitate. He kept going until he'd cut this new kind of light away, leaving not a trace.
He wasn't deliberately taking the road less traveled. The main reason was that he had so few chips to play with.
Take someone like Keke or the Gravekeeper. They'd each had centuries to understand the Realm of Ultimate Bliss. There was every reason to believe his opponent had spent a considerable amount of time immersed in it, and had information far beyond anything he could match.
At present, the only things he could rely on, aside from the results of his usual academic research, seemed to be one thing: as he'd mentioned before, his opponent might have seen through the Nine Heavens, but their actions still had to follow the operating rules of each heaven to some extent. They couldn't simply crush him by dimensional superiority.
For example, in the City of Ultimate Evil, they'd twice sent someone to physically kill him.
Or they'd used a higher heaven to get the Gravekeeper to put a coffin lid over
