I, the Lord of the Fifth Throne, am the source of all things!

so.......

"What...what do you want to do..."

Muzan stared at the man in front of him with terror in his eyes. Although he didn't know what the talisman the man had drawn on him was for, his intuition told him that something terrible was going to happen.

"Sizzle—"

Duanmu Lian didn't waste any words with Wuzan. After inscribing the talisman, he took out a [Phantom Book] from his spatial ring, which he had obtained from Dalian.

In an instant, dark and profound death energy emanated from Duanmu Lian as she opened the book.

And amidst Muzan Kibutsuji's horrified screams and cries, it clung to his battered body and his heinous soul like a leech.

As magic circles rotated and unfolded beneath Muzan, a profound attraction began to pull him into the abyss.

"Aaaaaah!! What is this!? What is this!? I...where...where am I going?!?!?!"

"It's not a place that would make you feel at ease."

Holding the Illusionary Book, Duanmu Lian looked down indifferently at Muzan, who was struggling and wailing in the mire of death energy, and said in a nonchalant tone.

This is the strange power possessed by the illusionary book in his hand.

The book is titled "The Book of the Dead's Feast in the Windowless Mansion".

Its function is to guide the deceased to the lowest level of the underworld.

After watching Muzan's physical body collapse and his soul sink into the underworld, he took out another illusory book and entered the passage opened by the falling soul.

Muzan was merely a stone thrown to test the waters.

Now, as a living being, he went alone to the Avici Hell.

It was all for the sake of those endless evil souls, and Muzan was naturally among them.

If you were to ask Duanmu Lian if she was afraid of hell, she would answer...

His answer was—"I'm used to it."

Is the endless cycle of tragic fate considered hell?

Is it considered hell to fight for eternity in the Asura realm?

He had seen hell and experienced life as a prisoner of hell.

I was afraid, I was terrified.

But after experiencing so much, I've become indifferent and used to it.

For him, it was nothing more than... going from one hell to another.

Chapter Fifteen: Supernatural Powers, First World Travel

Inside the space, Duanmu Lian returned with a wealth of experiences.

And Dalian didn't let Duanmu Lian rest either.

After seeing that he had adapted to the rhythm of traveling between worlds, they began to prepare a plan for him to become stronger.

Now, he needs to become stronger for the next stage.

It's time to choose which path to take.

Magic, martial arts, cultivation, arcane arts, and so on—Dalian led Duanmu Lian directly into the library and began letting him choose immediately.

"I've decided to pursue the path of martial arts cultivation, and I'm determined to explore the realm of the mind."

Standing before the vast library she had once collected, Duanmu Lian gazed at the endless knowledge before her, her eyes revealing unwavering resolve. She turned to Dalian beside her and announced her choice.

Walk the path of martial arts, seek the way of the heart.

This was the path he had previously told Dalian about the direction he was taking.

Now that the time has come to make a choice, he remains determined to take this path.

"It's good that you've made your decision."

Dalian nodded, offering no objection to Duanmu Lian's chosen path. She quickly scanned the martial arts books in the area and began explaining to Duanmu Lian:

"The energy required and cultivated in martial arts is nothing more than the three elements of essence, qi, and spirit, such as blood qi, fighting qi, internal strength, true qi, primordial qi, etc. Going further, the energy will be sublimated into higher-level energy, such as true essence, divine power, spiritual power, etc. Here there is a martial arts power with a high energy level."

"What is it?"

Duanmu Lian, who was using her mental energy to browse through the martial arts book library, immediately focused a portion of her attention on listening carefully after hearing Dalian's words.

As Dalian said, the special energy generated by the martial arts system is internal force and true qi.

He currently possesses the "Seven Treasures Qi" generated through breathing techniques, but its grade is unknown.

He has now laid the foundation, and now he is going to build skyscrapers on that foundation.

The height and strength of the structure should be carefully considered.

So when he heard Dalian say that there was martial arts power of high energy grade, he was very interested.

"Supernatural power!"

Dalian replied in a flat tone.

Then, she raised her small hand and lightly swiped in the air in front of her, and virtual screens recording data immediately floated in front of Duanmu Lian.

Supernatural powers?

Upon hearing these three words, Duanmu Lian stopped searching for books and, intrigued, turned to look at the martial arts system that Dalian had recommended to him.

The word "supernatural power" has different interpretations.

The ability to communicate with deities through special methods is called supernatural power.

The ability to do what others cannot, to accomplish the incredible, is also called supernatural power.

The supernatural power that Dalian recommended was more like the latter in Duanmu Lian's eyes.

Supernatural power—this power originates from the power system obtained by the previous generation of Duanmu Lian from the world he visited.

Its title is "The Forbidden Incantation of the Holy Sword Master".

The special group of people who possess power in that world are the reincarnations of heroes from distant planets and the distant past.

After reincarnation, they experience the actions, thoughts, deeds, and memories of heroes from their previous lives through dreams.

After gaining power, they are roughly divided into two categories.

They are White Iron and Black Magic, respectively.

The power of white iron is supernatural power, also known as divine power or supernatural power in that world.

Supernatural power is the power required to use light techniques.

It can be absorbed and used by opening the seven pores in the body.

The power of the Black Demon is magic.

The power of these beings is more like that of magicians, and the magic they use is called dark magic.

When casting dark magic, a dark mage must first draw a diagram and then chant a spell before casting the spell.

If you want to distinguish between White Iron and Black Magic.

This can be seen as a distinction between warriors and mages.

That world has the concept of soul reincarnation and a special power system, which is very attractive to the Demon God Lotus.

Because the Demon Lotus follows the path of magic, the opponent has also learned dark magic.

Therefore, Dalian also remembered it vividly and recommended it to the current Duanmu Lian.

Let him try another promising path: the white iron road.

Fortunately, the paths of white iron and martial arts cultivation are a perfect match.

Moreover, the energy level of supernatural power is much higher than that of internal force and true qi.

"When cultivation reaches a high level, will one awaken their own unique 'Yinghuo' (source power)...?"

Duanmu Lian carefully examined the various records about this path, which could be described as an out-and-out warrior system.

Moreover, when one reaches a high level of mastery, various kinds of primal powers will awaken.

Examples include causal interference, natural elements, gravity, and weapons.

"No one has explored this area yet, so I'll choose this one."

Duanmu Lian accepted Dalian's proposal, and he also felt that the system had a very good prospect for development.

He believed that by combining this with the martial arts techniques he already possessed, he could achieve great things.

Soon, Duanmu Lian absorbed the seed of supernatural power and began to cultivate according to the recorded method.

To cultivate supernatural powers, one must open the seven gates of the body, also known as the seven orifices.

Dalian took out a large pile of high-quality spirit stones from the storage room and placed them around Duanmu Lian's body. She also took out some elixirs and medicines to supply him.

A week later, Duanmu Lian's seven orifices were opened.

Because of his previous physical training and accumulation, his contact with this supernatural power can be described as a powerful release of accumulated strength.

That's why all seven orifices were opened in such a short time.

“Buzz buzz!!!”

At this moment, Duanmu Lian looked at the supernatural power that was bursting out from within her body, a mixture of deep black and pale white, with astonishment.

He felt that with this power empowering his body, he could unleash a terrifying destructive force that he had never imagined before.

The color of his supernatural power is black overall, but there are some eerie pale white spots within the black.
