"Hey, An Bai... are you... are you alright?"

Liliana huddled on the ground, sobbing softly for a while, and then realized that there was no movement around her for a long time.

She cautiously raised her head and looked at An Bai.

Then, she was completely stunned.

An Bai remained standing in the same spot.

But the expression on his face was very strange.

There was no fear, despair, or breakdown as she had anticipated.

Quite the opposite.

His face held an expression of fervent excitement she had never seen before!

His eyes were fixed on the two ominous red moons in the sky.

That look didn't seem like he was looking at a world-destroying demon king.

It's like a wolf that's been starving for three days and three nights, seeing a plump, yet completely unsuspecting sheep!

"An Bai, you...you're scaring me!"

Liliana sensed that An Bai might have gone mad with fear, as her voice carried a hint of terror.

"We're currently on the Eclipse King's body, we..."

"Shh!"

An Bai suddenly raised his hand and made a shushing gesture.

He turned his head, his eyes shining brightly, and asked in a low voice with immense excitement.

"Liliana, you just said that this Plague King is asleep, right?"

"Yes...yes." Liliana nodded subconsciously.

"The seal is still very strong, right? That's why it hasn't been able to escape for tens of thousands of years," An Bai asked again.

"That's probably true, otherwise we would have died long ago..."

"Does the toxic energy emanating from its body mean that there's a leak in the seal, like a deflated balloon?"

Liliana was a little confused by his barrage of questions, but she still nodded with difficulty.

"Theoretically speaking... that's correct."

"Great! That's wonderful!"

An Bai slapped his thigh, his excitement no longer concealed!

He paced back and forth excitedly, muttering to himself.

"We've struck it rich! We've struck it rich! We're really going to strike it rich this time!"

"He's gone mad, this guy has really gone mad..." Liliana covered her face in despair.

She would rather see An Bai break down and cry than see him in this frenzied state.

"I'm not crazy!"

An Bai suddenly stopped, squatted down, pressed his hands firmly against Liliana's shoulders, and stared intently at her.

"Liliana, listen to me! This is an opportunity! A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"Opportunity? What opportunity? The chance to be flipped over and crushed into a meat pie by the Eclipse King?" Liliana was about to cry.

"No!"

An Bai shook his head, his voice full of seduction.

"This is an opportunity to become a god!"

He pointed to the sky, then to the ground beneath his feet.

"Just think about it, what kind of being is this? The Eclipse King! A world-destroying boss! How terrifying must its power be?"

"Right now, this terrifying being is sleeping right beneath our feet! And because it's sealed, it can't move at all, and its power is still leaking out!"

"What does this mean?"

An Bai lowered his voice even further, yet it was like a devil's whisper that burrowed into Liliana's ears.

"This means that we are standing on a boundless, unprotected treasure trove of super energy!"

"If only we could find a way, secretly and quietly, to take a little bit of something out of this treasure trove..."

Liliana's eyes widened little by little.

She is not a fool.

She finally understood what An Bai wanted to do.

Then, a fear many times stronger than when she realized she was in dire straits gripped her heart instantly!

"No, no! You're crazy!"

She screamed, then covered her mouth tightly, afraid that the loud noise would awaken the terrifying presence beneath her feet.

"Absolutely not! That's the King of Eclipse! The King of Plague and Decay! Its power is filled with poison and corruption; even a tiny leak is too dangerous for us to touch!"

"If you touch it, our souls will be corroded into a puddle of mud!"

"Who said I was going to touch it with my body?"

An Bai smiled mysteriously.

He slowly opened his palm.

hum-

The ordinary-looking [Primordial Divine Pearl] that he had always kept close to his body quietly appeared in his palm.

It still looked the same dull and unremarkable.

But the moment it appeared, the negative energy in the surrounding air, which was full of poison, suddenly seemed to have found an outlet and rushed towards the pearl frantically!

Liliana was horrified to see that the energy, which even the true gods dared not easily touch and which was filled with the laws of [decay] and [plague], was easily devoured by the orb the moment it came into contact with it!

Not even a ripple appeared!

"This, this is..."

Liliana's mouth was wide enough to fit an egg.

She stared blankly at the precious pearl, feeling as if her worldview had been refreshed once again.

"My baby, it can eat anything."

An Bai laughed smugly.

"Whether it's divine energy or abyssal demonic energy, it only has one fate in its presence: it becomes the purest form of energy that I can use."

As he spoke, he glanced at his system panel.

In those few short seconds, his depleted divine power reserves were visibly restored by a small amount!

Although it's not much, it's a breakthrough from 0 to 1!

This proves that his idea is feasible!

"Now, do you still think I'm crazy?" An Bai looked at the dumbfounded Liliana and smiled like a fox who had stolen a chicken.

Liliana shook her head mechanically, then nodded frantically.

She still thought An Bai had gone mad.

But the evidence he presented forced her to believe that this extremely crazy plan actually had a sliver of a chance of success!

"Let's do it! Let's do it right now!"

An Bai waved his hand fiercely, having made up his mind.

"Since we're stuck here waiting to die anyway, we might as well take a big gamble!"

"Take a gamble, and your bicycle might turn into a motorcycle! If I win, I'll take off right here and soar to the sky!"

Without further hesitation, he immediately began his actions.

If you want to steal energy on a large scale and with high efficiency, relying solely on the passive absorption of the orb itself is too slow.

We must set up a large formation!

A super magic array that can actively draw and gather energy!

An Bai took out all the valuable array materials he had accumulated over the years from his storage space.

Magic crystals of various attributes, metals engraved with runes, gems containing the power of space...

If these things were outside, any one of them would be enough to bankrupt a demigod.

But now, An Bai is placing them one by one on the scorched earth as if they were trash, without any regret.

"Liliana, I need your help!"

As An Bai quickly made the arrangements, he spoke to Liliana, who was still in shock.

"I need you to be my eyes and ears, to help me keep watch over the surroundings! Although this is a dead zone, who knows if some mutated monsters corrupted by the power of the Eclipse King might run out."

"Notify me immediately if there's any sign of trouble!"

"I...I..."

Liliana looked at An Bai's focused and serious expression, and saw the resolute determination in his eyes that said, "It's all or nothing."

She knew she couldn't stop him.

Once this man goes crazy, no one can stop him.

Taking a deep breath, Liliana's eyes gradually shifted from fear to determination.

As An Bai said.

Since death is inevitable either way, why not take a gamble?

She has witnessed too many miracles by following this man.

Perhaps this time, he can really create the greatest miracle that even the gods dare not imagine!

"good!"

Liliana nodded heavily, gripped her staff tightly, and stood behind Anbai, warily scanning the surrounding darkness.

"I will protect you!"

"Haha, great!"

An Bai burst into laughter, his enthusiasm growing even stronger.

The next few hours.

An Bai was like a highly meticulous engineer, constructing his insane blueprint on this desolate, scorched earth.

An unprecedented "energy-stealing array," centered on the [Primordial Divine Orb] and consisting of hundreds of precious materials as nodes, covering an area of ​​several thousand meters in radius, is slowly taking shape.

at last.

An Bai pressed the last piece of the Void Stone, which contained the laws of space, into the array's core.

Buzz—!

The entire array suddenly lit up!

Energy pathways formed by runes lit up the earth, spreading out like a giant spider web in an instant!

next second.

An indescribably terrifying suction force erupted from the [Primordial Godhood Orb] at the center of the magic circle!
