Chapter 150: The Diagram – Let Me See the Limits of the Candle-Bearer!! (25 Chapters in 2 Words, Requesting Monthly Tickets~)

inside the channel.

A phantom composed entirely of flowing darkness swept across the passageway where the fierce battle was raging, like a ghost.

Ignoring the air distorted by the explosion, ignoring the sticky fragments that tumbled down.

Clamped to the shadows of the cavity walls, it sped towards the darkness deeper underground.

The speed is even faster than before!
With the blessing of the Eternal Night Flow, the terrifying 200% increase made Fang Qingyu an elusive shadow.

The passage sloped downwards, becoming even more slippery, and the pulsating blood vessels emitted a sickly purple glow.

As distance approaches.

The painful and frantic heartbeat of the severely injured insect queen became increasingly clear.

Finally, the passage opened up into a bright and spacious area.

Enter a more primitive underground cavern-like chamber than the upper core.

It is not simply composed of purely biological tissues.

It is also mixed with jagged black rocks.

Clearly, the Weaver of Fate has not yet had time to completely transform this place into its own lair.

And in the center of this chamber.

The purplish-black fleshy orb of the Abyss Weaver was writhing in agony, trying to take root again.

Its surface shell was shattered and broken, and dark purple mucus mixed with charred wounds eroded by black flames kept oozing out.

It struggled, trying to reconnect the broken roots.

But what poses a fatal threat to it at this moment is not the black flame.

It is not the people surrounding it, but the people who surround it.

The seven members of Creation Technology, like cold killing machines, were methodically carrying out their hunt.

Their precise positioning created an encirclement.

It blocked all possible escape routes for the insect queen.

On their uniform black combat suits, the twisted spiral eye emblem reflected a cold, eerie luster in the dim light.

The three leaders possessed an aura as deep and unfathomable as the sea.

He was far stronger than the modified martial artists they had encountered before, but much weaker than the one Grandmaster Chen had just faced.

Two Xuanwu warriors and a Holy Judgment agent!?

Fang Qingyu only glanced at them before he could roughly tell their ranks.

One of them was as thin as bamboo, and his hands had transformed into two long, bony hooks that shimmered with a ghostly green phosphorescence. With each swing, they precisely cut the tentacles of the insect queen as she tried to retaliate.

The other man was exceptionally burly, his body covered in thick, pale white bone armor, like a moving human fortress. His fists were his martial arts weapons, transformed into battering rams, each strike hitting the mother insect's carapace producing a dull, thunderous roar.

And the last divine intercessor.

Its aura is the most restrained, and also the most dangerous.

He stood a little further away from the encirclement, on a raised black rock, seemingly the commander.

He wore a bone mask that covered half of his face.

His exposed eyes were so cold they were devoid of any human emotion.

The man simply pressed his hands down, and an invisible aura with a powerful binding force enveloped the insect mother, making her struggles increasingly sluggish, as if she were trapped in an invisible swamp.

The other four are also masters of subtlety.

With varying degrees of modification, some had bone blades growing on their arms, while others had bone spurs growing on their backs. Like efficient hunting dogs, they constantly harassed the seemingly weak points of the insect queen under the command of the three leaders.

Cut the still-pulsating blood vessels and collect tissue samples.

It's like dissecting a lab mouse in a laboratory.

In the darkness nearby, Fang Qingyu, who was quietly listening, frowned slightly.

Look at the map.

Skill Points: 14

These are all the new types of life ghost rewards that Fang Qingyu has collected since entering this special force field!
There are currently three first-stage, third-level warriors on the field, plus four modified warriors of the same level as themselves.

Even if all 14 points were invested into the martial artist's panel.

It seems there's nothing that can be changed.

At most, it would only elevate one's Qi and blood and visualization techniques to a higher level, or elevate various martial arts techniques to a higher level.

But this is alright against someone at the first level, third realm.

Facing three opponents at the same time.

Even with the abilities of the Candle Bearer, to be honest, I'm not very confident.

Fang Qingyu then turned to the next page.
The diagrams show me the limits of the candle-bearer!
Two skill points vanished instantly.

Congratulations! Your core skill "Embrace of the Netherworld - Blazing Night" has been upgraded to Lv.3 (0/800).

Congratulations! Your advanced skill "Eternal Night Veil" has been upgraded to Lv.3 (0/800)

Of course, even the ultimate trump card cannot defeat it.

The remaining 6 skill points have all disappeared.

Congratulations! Your core skill "Eternal Night's Judgment" has been upgraded to Lv.3 (0/800)

This is the current limit of the Candle Walker class stats.

Even if you still have skill points, you can only improve Night Visit and Eternal Night Journey.

Unless the Candlelight Walker reaches level 3.

For Fang Qingyu, the path of following the gods was the simplest and most efficient one.

But compared to martial artists.

In terms of comprehensiveness and potential, it is naturally inferior.

"Core activity is rapidly declining! Lords Erosion and Heavy Mountain, accelerate the stripping of the main nerve bundle nodes! Lord Bound God, please suppress it!" A member at the peak of the Microscopic Realm calmly reported while cutting off a section of the pulsating nerve bundle with a special tool, his tone carrying a hint of excitement before completing the mission.

The cultist known as "Binding God" nodded slightly, his cold gaze sweeping over the struggling insect queen as if she were a work of art nearing completion: "The specimen is in good condition. After removing the core, immediately inject sedation hormone to ensure its activity. Its genetic sequence will be one of the most perfect cornerstones for creation!"

The voice of the God of Binding was calm and even, yet it exuded an absolute confidence that allowed him to control everything.

In their eyes, this peak-level Tongxuan-rank Destiny Ghost that plunged Qingjian City into dire straits was nothing more than a piece of fat meat waiting to be slaughtered on a chopping board, a stepping stone to higher power.

However, just as he was in complete control, high above everyone else, ready to reap the rewards of victory...

Absolute darkness descended without warning.

Like ink dripping into clear water, or like night instantly swallowing up dusk.

Centered on the massive fleshy ball of the Abyss Weaver, there is an absolute dark domain with a radius of 100 meters that devours all light and sound.

The curtain of eternal night has suddenly been drawn back!
hum! !

A spatial force was forcibly altered, and a freezing wave gently enveloped the entire area.

Suddenly, everything went black before the eyes of everyone at Creation Technology!
It's not just the deprivation of sight; even sound, smell, perception, and the flow of one's own qi and blood are all as if enveloped and weakened by a thick, cold darkness!

It felt as if I were in the cold depths of space, enveloped by endless nothingness.

"What?!" The Bound God, standing high above, was the first to realize that his proud aura was being frantically eroded and slowed down the moment he came into contact with the darkness.

He tried to mobilize the power in the area, but found that the energy field was frozen and it was very difficult to operate!

50% reduction in perception.

At any moment, it's a deadly debuff! "Enemy attack!! Where did this domain come from!?" The emaciated Bone Erosioner let out a sharp scream. His speed, which he was known for, made him feel like he was sinking into a swamp in the darkness. The eerie green bone hook in his hand felt incredibly heavy as he swung it, and even his sense of direction began to go haywire!
Chongshan's burly body shuddered violently, and the bone armor covering his entire body groaned under the strain.

He roared and tried to break free of the darkness with brute force.

But the darkness clung to him like a living thing, eroding his strength and bone armor.

Those who paid close attention to detail were even more overwhelmed, instantly falling into extreme panic.

Their proudly modified parts were lost in the darkness, like headless flies.

One team member tried to move closer to the location of his comrade from his memory, but crashed headfirst into the cold rock with a dull thud.

"Stay calm!! This is a special ability! Move closer to me!! Use your aura to disperse them!"

The Bound God suppressed his horror and roared fiercely, trying to regain control of the situation.

A powerful surge of energy erupted from his body, attempting to forcibly create an area.
If it were before...

And it actually worked!

but now.
His response was not the approach of his companions, but a dark, more profound, and more despairing light that shone from the deepest part of the darkness.

The Lv.3 Eternal Night Blazing Armor is now available!!

In the absolute darkness at its core, a figure silently coalesced.

The liquid darkness was no longer just an embellishment on the weapon, but flowed out of nothingness like a living thing, instantly covering Fang Qingyu's entire body!

It coalesces, shapes, and forms a flowing, ferocious suit of armor covering the entire body.
The armor has smooth lines, yet it also has inhumanly sharp edges. The helmet is like the horns of a demon, and the visor has eye sockets that are bright and flickering with dark flames.

Sharp barbs made of solidified darkness extend from the shoulder armor, arm armor, and leg armor.
Flowing black flames surged and burned silently on the surface of the armor, exuding a terrifying demonic aura.

Fang Qingyu stood there quietly, as if he were the master of this eternal night.

The modifications and techniques employed by the team at Creation Technology appeared laughable and insignificant in the face of his abyssal gaze.

"Stop this charade! Break it!"

Chongshan was the first to succumb to the terrifying pressure, roaring as he unleashed the terrifying power of the Profound Realm to its limit.

The fists, covered in bone armor, burst forth with a blinding, pale light.

Like two falling meteors, they crashed down with the force to crush all good, hurtling towards the demonic figure in the darkness!
He was confident.

Even if the opponent's defense is strong, it cannot withstand his full-force attack.

Faced with this terrifying fist energy capable of collapsing a mountain cave.

Fang Qingyu, or rather, the demon in his Eternal Night Blazing Armor state.

With an extremely slight, almost indescribable contempt, he raised his hand, which was covered in black flame arm armor.

There was no earth-shattering collision, no violent clash of energy.

The Eternal Night's Journey!

The demon's figure vanished like a candle flame in the wind the instant the fist struck.

It suddenly transformed into an even deeper stream of dark light, leaving only a twisted and scorching afterimage in its place.

Chongshan's fists, powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, slammed into empty air. The violent force tore apart the afterimage left by the demon, and the aftershocks bombarded the dark ground, blasting open a huge crater. Fragments of rocks mixed with slime splattered everywhere!

However, the real target has vanished!
"Watch out behind you! Bone-Eating!" The "Binding God's" roar was filled with unprecedented panic. He finally caught a glimpse of the trail, but it was too late!

The shadowy streak appeared behind the gaunt "Bone-Eater" as if by teleportation.

Fang Qingyu didn't even draw his sword.

The left hand, covered by the Eternal Night Blazing Black Flame Armor, spread its five fingers like a demon's claw, carrying absolute power and speed. Ignoring the "Bone Corrosion's" instinctive counterattack of the horrified, eerie green bone hook, it gripped the back of his neck like an iron clamp!

Click!

A sharp, piercing sound of bone cracking was particularly jarring in the thick darkness.

All of "Corrosion" froze instantly, the horror and violence in his eyes solidified, replaced by the emptiness of life rapidly slipping away.

His speed and ruthlessness, which he was so proud of, were rendered utterly vulnerable under the suppression of this absolute power and darkness!
The demon casually tossed the limp corpse aside like trash, the body hitting the ground with a dull thud that was particularly clear in the deathly darkness.

"Do not--!!!"

Chongshan's eyes were bloodshot with rage. The instant death of his companion had driven him completely mad. He roared and charged again, his pale bone armor bursting with blinding light, and his immense power churned the darkness.

The "Binding God" on the high place finally stopped holding back, and his hands suddenly clasped together. A powerful mental shockwave ignored the weakening of the darkness and, like an invisible giant hammer, smashed hard into Fang Qingyu's head!
At the same time, he shouted sharply: "Everyone! Focus fire! Attack the area where he is located!"

The remaining four members of the Microscopic Realm Peak team also suppressed their fear and rushed towards the demon in the darkness from all directions!
Faced with this concentrated fire that would make any martial artist at the Transcendent Realm retreat, Fang Qingyu, under the Eternal Night Blaze armor, simply raised his head slowly.

The two dark flames beneath the visor flickered, as if flashing a hint of mockery.

He still didn't draw his sword.

The liquid black flame armor covering his entire body suddenly boiled!
The flowing black flames seemed to come alive, instantly condensing and taking shape in front of the demon, transforming into a huge, heavy black flame shield!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
Five violent attacks struck the black flame shield almost simultaneously!

A deafening explosion resounded throughout the dark realm!
The shockwave raged wildly, completely plowing up the surrounding ground!

However, the giant shield made of pure liquid black flames only fluctuated violently. Runes flowed on its surface, and a ghostly light flickered. Like a gaping maw of an abyss, it silently swallowed most of the explosive energy and impact!
Level 3 Eternal Night Blazing Armor.

The terrifying effect of +300% defense is on full display!
Behind the shield, the demon's figure remained motionless, like a reef rooted in darkness.

"How can it be?!"

The Bound Gods screamed in despair; their attacks hadn't even caused a ripple!
This was beyond his comprehension!
Just as the members of Creation Technology were shaken by the ineffective attack, the black flame shield suddenly dissipated, transforming back into flowing armor that covered the demon's entire body.

The demon moved.

Without using Shadow Candle Warp, it was just the simplest step.

But this step seemed to shatter the distance of space, instantly appearing in front of Chongshan, whose old strength had just been exhausted from the all-out attack and whose new strength had not yet been generated!
The demonic claws, covered in black flames, reached out without any fancy moves to grab "Chongshan's" head, which was covered in bone armor!
Chongshan roared, crossed his arms to block, and his pale bone armor unleashed its last protective aura!

laugh--! ! !
A tooth-grinding sound, like a hot knife slicing through butter, rang out.

It might be able to withstand Chen Wenshan's punch, which would be accompanied by thick bone armor and profound protective qi.

Before the demon's claws burning with eternal black flames, they were as fragile as paper!
The claws pierced through the bone armor, the protective aura, and the crossed arms without any resistance, and then, with perfect precision, gripped Chongshan's enormous head!

Extreme fear and disbelief erupted in Chongshan's eyes, and he didn't even have time to scream.

The demon's five fingers suddenly clenched together!
puff!

Like crushing a ripe watermelon.

Red and white fragments of bone, mixed with the smoke from being instantly scorched and charred by the black flames, spewed out from between the demon's fingers.

The burly, headless corpse covered in bone armor swayed and then collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Absolute silence.

In the dark realm, only the heavy breathing of the God of Binding and the chattering of the other four team members remained.

The two strongest experts in the team were like clay chickens and earthen dogs in front of this demon, easily crushed!
This is no longer a battle, but a one-sided, ruthless execution!
It is the indifference of a higher level of life towards ants!
"Monster! What are you?!"

One of the microscopic team members had a mental breakdown, screaming hysterically and turning to run away.

However, within this eternal night, he couldn't even discern directions.

The demon didn't even glance at him.

His right hand, covered in black flame armor, was casually flicked to the side and behind.

A stream of condensed, almost tangible liquid black flame shot out silently like a black arrow, instantly piercing the chest of the team member and leaving a charred, bowl-sized hole with its edges burning with black flames.

The screams of the team members stopped abruptly, and the body fell to the ground.

The remaining three team members completely collapsed, slumped to the ground, and lost even the courage to run away, leaving only boundless fear and despair.

The face beneath the mask of the high-ranking deity was distorted, its last vestiges of pride and reason crushed.

"Die together! You blasphemous demons of creation!"
