Beholding a Great Existence! Unifier of All Things

A streak of white light flew out and landed in Su Ziyu's hand.

"[Eye That Must Not Be Looked At (Three-Star): Due to a mistaken deep-space observation, the owner of these eyes actually captured a glimpse of a 'Great Existence,' a taboo-level figure! How could mortal eyes gaze directly upon a god's body?! This caused the pair of eyes to mutate. Excellent monster material! With human eyes, one gazed upon a deity, encountered calamity, and had one's fate twisted!]"

But the next second, the scene before Su Ziyu changed. The rooftop vanished, replaced by a gray, hazy space. Endless darkness stretched before him, as if he stood within the void!

At the very front, a blinding radiance like the sun shone toward him. The harsh light made Su Ziyu instinctively raise an arm to shield his eyes. Driven by curiosity, he peered through the gap beneath his arm and saw a creature formed from billions of glowing bubbles!

No! Perhaps it should not have been called a creature!

This was... a god!

The nearest spheres of light scattered apart, spilling out sinister, evil layers of primordial flesh. They tangled together, forming grotesque horrors from outer space. Every sphere of light resembled both a sun and an eye as it stared at Su Ziyu, and the air was saturated with malice.

However, Su Ziyu quickly calmed down. He touched his face and discovered that not only had he not gone mad or become an idiot after witnessing the true form of an evil god, but he was still alive and well!

Soon, Su Ziyu understood. The godlike being before him was merely a memory image Old Huang had seen in the past, a phantom that had remained buried in his subconscious.

Though it was not the evil god's true body, Su Ziyu still felt as though an ancient divine mountain stood before him. A sense of insignificance in the face of a Great Existence rose from the depths of his heart, making him instinctively want to submit.

But this time, Su Ziyu had the system. Why should he fear an image imagined by someone and lingering in their subconscious?

Instead, Su Ziyu came up with an excellent idea.

Seeing that the unknown Great Existence was about to disappear, Su Ziyu hurriedly stretched out his hand and silently recited:

"Extract material!"

Even if it was merely a projection, even if it was only an existence lingering within Old Huang's subconscious, Old Huang had truly seen its real form. There had to be countless connections between this phantom and its true body.

Perhaps that being did not know that an imagined image of itself had appeared here, but the Monster Editor System possessed the ability to trace things back to their source.

Even if it was only a phantom, it was still a Great Existence beyond the stars, a true deity!

With his experience of harvesting materials from the Spider God, the extracted material was definitely something good. It might even be four-star, or perhaps five-star!

Those eternal and ancient Great Existences transcended the concept of time. Even if they left behind only a wisp of will, they could crawl out from taboo eras!

Even the smallest action might be part of a scheme they had arranged.

With a crash, the phantom before Su Ziyu shattered and collapsed. He returned to his original position without even moving a single step.

"Ding! Material extraction successful!

[A Wisp of the Unifier of All Things' Phantom Aura (Five-Star): Formed from a memory phantom left in the mind of one who witnessed the true form of an evil god. Its origin comes from a true deity, a taboo existence, the embodiment of infinite knowledge, possessing the authority to unify all things. Its power is strong enough to make all kinds of materials pale in comparison, perhaps even warp them. However, if handled properly, it is also an exceptional monster-editing material!]"

"Looks like this trip wasn't in vain..."

Su Ziyu nodded inwardly. These two S-rank patients were practically treasure troves of materials. Not only had he lured Ruan Xiaoqi away, but she had also given him a five-star material. Although Old Huang had been completely contaminated, he had also provided a five-star material. With that, Su Ziyu possessed two five-star materials. Once he found some auxiliary materials, he could edit his next monster!

However, the current situation did not allow him to begin editing. The commotion just now had been far too great. The Special Division must have already rushed over, so he decided to deal with the Ghoul Cult priest first.

Suddenly, he felt his entire body tilt. Looking down, he discovered that the building had begun to distort and collapse. In truth, the administrative building had already been on the verge of destruction from the aftershocks of the battle. Old Huang's power had been holding it together, but now that protection was gone, the building immediately began to break apart and collapse.

The still-enlarged Dread Demon Eye flew over, extending two tentacles to gently hook Su Ziyu. Its angelic wings flapped as it slowly descended from the sky.

From afar, it looked just like an angel.

His toes lightly touched the ground, and the surrounding airflow and dust burst apart. Su Ziyu landed within the ring of fire created by the Evil Spirit Marionette.

When Ruan Xiaoqi saw Su Ziyu, a strange light appeared in her calm eyes. Su Ziyu squeezed her palm and said softly:

"Xiaoqi, you've been so good."

Ruan Xiaoqi was not incapable of understanding everything. Upon hearing that, a faint blush actually appeared on the face of the somewhat aloof girl.

The moment the priest saw Su Ziyu descend, his already pale face turned even whiter. He immediately threw himself forward, hugged Su Ziyu's leg, and begged for mercy with tears and snot streaming down his face:

"My lord! Spare me! I'm willing to serve you like an ox or a horse! I can do anything! I can give you anything!"

A trace of coldness flashed through Su Ziyu's calm gaze as he smiled.

"Can you really give me anything?"

Seeing that Su Ziyu had relented, the priest knocked his head against the ground until it bled and said like a groveling dog:

"Yes, I can give you anything!

My wife! My daughter! I can give them both to you!"

Cultists truly had no humanity. In order to survive, the priest was even willing to sacrifice his family.

More importantly, he had mistaken Su Ziyu for a dark overlord, a taboo existence. He wanted to become his dog in the hopes of obtaining the power to advance to Morningstar.

After all, he had worshipped the Ghoul God to gain power. Becoming Su Ziyu's dog was also for power.

"Forget about your wife and children."

Su Ziyu bent down slightly, looked at the man's pale face, and slowly said:

"Can I have your life instead?"

In an instant, the priest's face went white. But in the next second, a vicious gleam flashed through his eyes.

"Ghoul Detonation Seal!"

The priest roared in a low voice. Violent spiritual energy surged out from his body, and like a balloon, he seemed ready to explode at any moment!

Unable to become a dog, so he had flown into a rage out of humiliation?

There was not the slightest ripple on Su Ziyu's calm face. His eyelids did not even twitch as a spear condensed from dark matter pierced directly through the priest's eyes!

Under the gaze of the [All-Seeing True Eye], Su Ziyu had long since caught the priest's little scheme.

Bending down had only been to better stab the man's eyes...

"Ah!"

The ghoul priest's spell was interrupted. Blinded in both eyes, he clawed at his face, trying to pull out the two dark spears.

Su Ziyu ignored his screams and instead looked around, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

Under the Dread Demon Eye's outburst, the Ghoul Cult's sacrificial ritual had been completely destroyed. All its cultists had become corpses and severed limbs scattered across the ground, while the priest himself was suffering a fate worse than death. A grand sacrificial ritual that was about to begin had been brought to an end just like that.

Looking at the scene before him, Su Ziyu formed another dark spell with both hands and recited in a low voice:

"Dark Wisdom: Spirit Severing!"

Within the courtyard, spiritual energy emerged from every corpse, then condensed into humanoid spirits in midair. Su Ziyu raised a finger toward the sky, and spiritual energy swirled upward, gathering high above into a grand, enormous pair of spectral scissors.

He intended to use the cultists present as materials to create more Evil Spirit Marionettes!
