Gao Wu: After transforming into a soft girl, I became a calamity?

Yin Mengyao gazed at the quietly burning silver flame in her hand.

It wasn't hot to the touch, yet it exuded a powerful spiritual energy that was hard to ignore.

"A strange fire fueled by spirit...?"

In the advanced sequence, only [Demon Slayer] and the [Netherworld] we just encountered have similar characteristics.

Although their ignition is based on the fire element, their main fuel is mental energy.

As a [Doomsday] being, Jiang Mian's characteristics should also include this.

However, this ability belongs to the [Elemental] or [Natural Disaster] path, and even if Yin Mengyao is [Return to the Void], she cannot do it.

Her most common attack methods are nothing more than two:

One method is to directly bombard the target with a large amount of mental energy, which can also be condensed into threads, thus causing both mental and physical damage.

Secondly, when operating floating weapons, the higher one's mental strength, the higher the weapon's various attributes will be.

Especially for a five-star alien body like the Extreme Blade, even at the eighth rank it's sufficient.

This burning flame of the spirit is a nemesis to both the awakened and the calamities of the spiritual realm.

Therefore, even if the [Demon Slayer] and [Netherworld] sequences are not high, their combat power is not weak, especially when facing [Soul] or [Nightmare].

If the missing basic values ​​are made up by the vertex sequence, the result will undoubtedly be multiplied.

Thinking about this, Yin Mengyao couldn't help but waver.

It seems... this pirate ship isn't so bad after all?

Then, she sensed something was wrong.

Why was I just dismissed like that?

Jiang Mian looked at the silver flame in her palm and understood its properties.

It's just a child fire that inherits some of the characteristics of its own fire spirit, so it can be considered an equivalent exchange.

Judging from Ye Chenyang's attitude, this contract is so secure that even Yin Mengyao herself cannot violate or tear it up.

She finally felt relieved, and her demeanor softened.

Shen Qiuyu keenly sensed her change and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I don't even know if I came to the right place, I've unexpectedly learned such a shocking secret.

If something else happens later, my heart really can't take it.

Ye Chenyang stepped forward, intending to give Jiang Mian a hug, but she slapped him away.

"snort!"

Jiang Mian turned her back, as if she was still angry.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he hugged her from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist. He lowered his head slightly and whispered in her ear:

"Mianmian, I was wrong, please don't be angry."

"I...I'm not angry!"

Jiang Mian trembled involuntarily as a warm breath suddenly assaulted the back of her ear, but she still forced herself to speak:

"If you really can't do it, don't force yourself. Ask me, maybe I have a solution?"

Is she worried about him, afraid that he might get hurt?

A warm feeling welled up in Ye Chenyang's heart.

He always subconsciously took all the risks and responsibilities upon himself, forgetting that she was not a delicate flower who needed his protection.

"Okay, I understand. I'm sorry."

Seeing Ye Chenyang's sincere tone, Jiang Mian muttered "This is the last time" under her breath, and then let him hold her.

Seeing the two of them cuddling together oblivious to everyone else, Yin Mengyao and Shen Qiuyu quietly sidled up to each other.

Yin Mengyao secretly rubbed her fingertips together, and their spirits were connected.

"Did they do this before?"

"No. It must have started recently."

Shen Qiuyu had been staying with her since he arrived, and they naturally became much more familiar with each other.

"But Mianmian... has always been quite normal."

"Is that so?"

Yin Mengyao seemed to be deep in thought.

The fact that Jiang Mian could allow Ye Chenyang to act so intimately without showing any resistance is enough to prove a lot.

They're serious!

"What a tragedy!"

The "Eternal Day," representing the light of civilization, and the "Doomsday," representing natural disasters of destruction, have gotten together. Who would believe that?

But if they were to start arguing one day, the consequences would be devastating.

Hopefully, Ye Chenyang can stay calm.

Yin Mengyao could see clearly that Jiang Mian, though seemingly gentle and kind, was actually very dangerous and cunning, having Ye Chenyang completely under her control.

How come he knows his own abilities so well?

Isn't it supposed to be kept relatively confidential at first?

She was completely baffled.

After a brief moment of intimacy, Jiang Mian pushed Ye Chenyang's head away.

It's true that hugging is very comfortable, but there are two other people present.

With his actions, the authority he had painstakingly built up was gone again.

"Brother Ye, you're coming with me now."

Jiang Mian crossed the dividing line and stepped into the area covered with black rocks.

"There seems to be a fairly strong Calamity nearby. Let me check its quality. If it is, I'll take it; it'll be a good extra helper."

The strange Buddha we just saw contained elements of the netherworld, indicating that the calamities of this world are still within the original system.

However, such calamities generally roam places with heavy death energy, or occasionally appear deep in the mist.

The highest-level calamity inhabiting volcanic terrain is [Purgatory], which is currently the highest-level fire-type calamity known.

Although it's ranked 33rd in the sequence, it's not weak at all.

After all, the previous marine calamities were far too severe, including the [World-Crushing Flood], the [Sea of ​​Calamity], and the [Overthrow of Heaven and Earth], which can be considered half of them.

Even later titles like [Illusory Abyss] and [Winter's Edge] were derived from water.

Ye Chenyang also understood this principle.

The [World-Destroying Torrent] that Jiang Mian just created did not enter his spatial dimension; instead, it simply disappeared.

So it probably appears in the form of clones, and the time and number of times are limited.

Even so, Jiang Mian's side was the safest place in this small realm.

Xu Xiaoan will just have to hide a little longer.

As a [Phantom Spirit], she shouldn't be in any danger as long as she doesn't run onto someone's face.

Jiang Mian knew that no one would disagree with her, so she didn't say anything more.

With a slight thought, she conjured a wind shield, which swept everyone back into the air, propelling them deeper into the mist.

Because it was flying at low altitude, the changes on the ground were clearly visible.

Beyond this area of ​​black rocks lies the equally dark ocean.

Even with the fog obscuring the view, one can still vaguely see the towering crater in the distance.

Upon arriving at an island, the temperature began to rise noticeably, the cracks in the ground became rough, and some even emitted a dazzling orange-red light.

Ye Chenyang raised his left hand slightly, and a burst of light erupted, instantly thinning the fog in the area.

Jiang Mian placed everyone on a flat open space and looked up at the crater as if sensing something.

Perception spreads unchecked with the "wind," penetrating deep into the crater's interior.

However, when she saw what was inside, her expression changed slightly.

The calamity within seemed to sense the intruders, emitting a low, hoarse hiss.

It then transformed into a blur and rushed straight out of the volcano's crater.

At this moment, everyone present could see what it looked like.

It was like an exceptionally large crow, its body engulfed in crimson flames.

But at this moment, its body was covered with strange black and red substances, as if it had been parasitized by something, making it look extremely creepy.

Seeing this, Jiang Mian couldn't help but murmur:

"Is this place also contaminated?"
