The sequence is too involutional, luckily I am too.

Chapter 143 Death Apostle, Secret Execution

Lu Yan quietly spread his spiritual power, following the strange aura to investigate.

Such a wide-ranging mental probe would easily alert those around him, but thanks to the cheater's special ability [Cheating], his mental power inherently possesses a layer of deception.

Most of the superhumans around were completely unaware. Even if a few people vaguely sensed something was wrong, they dismissed it as an illusion and quickly forgot about it.

However, the other party was clearly extremely vigilant. No matter how Lu Yan searched, that strange aura was completely hidden, and no trace could be found.

"What a pity."

Lu Yan clicked his tongue, his tone tinged with regret.

The strange creature that the Black Forest Lord is so eager to devour must be of a high grade.

If we can catch it, Seven Emotions might be able to break through to Sequence 6 directly.

Lu Yan withdrew all his spiritual power and slowly walked towards his own manor.

After he walked away, a figure emerged from the shadows in the corner.

"This guy's senses—are incredibly sharp!"

The Death Apostle, disguised as an ordinary student, carefully concealed his presence and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

He had been lurking in the original shelter for a long time, doing things meticulously, and his every move was no different from that of an ordinary student.

Just now, he received a new order from the Death Saint, and the eerie aura within him fluctuated slightly.

This barely perceptible movement was actually detected by a junior at Sequence 6.

"Such a perfect soul—if offered to my god, it would surely be richly rewarded—"

The apostle of death harbored evil thoughts.

According to the Holy Envoy's plan, the Primordial Sanctuary will soon descend into chaos, perhaps—

"I've found you."

A voice filled with laughter suddenly rang out.

The Death Apostle felt a chill run down his spine. Before he could react, he saw Lu Yan standing in front of him, gently pushing him away with his fingertips.

The next second, it was as if he had smashed through an invisible barrier and fallen into a world that was exactly the same as the outside world, but without a trace of life.

Secret Technique: Mirror Space!

"Have I been discovered?"

The Apostle of Death looked on in disbelief.

He was concealed by a magical artifact, and his aura was almost perfectly hidden. If it weren't for the slight fluctuation in his power when he received the order, he would never have been exposed.

But how exactly did Lu Yan lock onto him? And where is this place?

While he was still filled with doubt and uncertainty, Lu Yan had already strode into the mirror space.

He couldn't actually detect the other party's presence anymore, and it wasn't convenient to switch to dead mode to investigate here.

He simply used the Dragon's Eye to pinpoint the person in the crowd whose behavior was most abnormal and whose traces were most suspicious.

To be honest, there was an element of gambling involved, but fortunately, he gambled correctly.

Seeing the overwhelming aura of death emanating from the other person, Lu Yan's eyes darkened.

Judging from this, the opponent is at least at the Apostle level, and the strangeness he carries is enough to give the Seven Emotions Demon a good meal.

Just letting a Sequence 5 level Apostle of the Mysterious God wander around the Sanctuary is a bit too risky for Master and his group to "fish" for him.

"Since we're already here, let's not leave."

Lu Yan silently unleashed the Black Forest Domain, enveloping his opponent.

However, the Death Apostle reacted quickly, sensing Lu Yan's aura, and immediately activated its domain to counterattack.

Lu Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he became somewhat wary.

The followers of the Deceptive God cannot possess domains; this was something his master had explicitly told him.

But this Death Apostle in front of them used his domain so casually, which was clearly different from what his master had said.

Unless—he is a symbiotic sequence!

"No wonder they could hide it so well, so that's what they relied on."

The Black Forest Lord itself originated from a fusion symbiotic sequence, and Lu Yan was very clear about the characteristics of this path.

Unless actively activated, all the power will be hidden within the symbiotic artifact, making it difficult to detect any flaws unless targeted at close range.

That's why so many strange artifacts were hidden in the Trial Realm, and even Wan Zhuliu didn't discover them.

Lu Yan gave a light hum, and with a thought, the Realm of Truth immediately unfolded.

A soft white light enveloped the opponent's domain, and within seconds, it completely disintegrated the domain.

But the Death Apostle wasn't flustered at all; instead, it looked at Lu Yan with a mocking gaze.

Although he is an apostle of the God of Evil, his domain is essentially just an empty shell. His true killing moves have always been the power of death and the bizarre!

Just as Lu Yan shattered his domain, a mirror suddenly appeared in front of Lu Yan.

Suddenly, the person in the mirror revealed a smile completely different from their real self, eerie and ferocious, with their mouth almost splitting to their ears.

"Mirror Ghost?"

Lu Yan frowned slightly.

The next second, Lu Yan felt a slight tearing sensation at the corner of his mouth, as if an invisible hand was forcibly pulling his mouth open.

"Is this the Sequence 6 anomaly, the murder rule?"

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow and secretly activated the Realm of Truth to analyze it.

On the other side, the Death Apostle breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Mirror Ghost had successfully locked onto Lu Yan.

Although Mirror Ghost is not Sequence 5, it has mastered the complete rules and has almost never lost to other superhumans of the same rank.

After all, the bizarre is the most perfect supernatural existence in this era.

If we could transform Lu Yan's rare soul into a strange entity, our strength would definitely skyrocket.

But soon he realized something was wrong.

Although Lu Yan's lips were pulled up slightly, they were not torn apart like his previous opponents'. Instead, it looked as if they were mocking him.

Of course, Lu Yan himself didn't mean that at all.

The tearing sensation from those rules was still there, but it couldn't break through his body, which had been strengthened many times over; it couldn't even break through the dragon scales hidden under his skin.

"Rules can indeed work, but they are not a panacea."

Looking at the mirror ghost still grinning desperately in the mirror, Lu Yan roughly figured out the details of this rule.

It's incredibly difficult to defend against once it's unleashed; it's definitely not weak and can catch most other superhumans of the same level off guard.

Unfortunately, he encountered himself.

Seeing that the other party had no other means, Lu Yan was too lazy to waste time and directly reached out and grabbed the mirror.

The mirror demon immediately resisted fiercely, while Lu Yan bit his fingertip and quickly wrote the character "seal" on the mirror surface with his blood.

The traits of Angel's Blood and Sealing Intent activated simultaneously, easily suppressing the power of the Mirror Demon.

Seeing this, the Death Apostle knew the situation was dire and immediately released the remaining monsters in an attempt to break through the Mirror Space.

But as soon as those strange things appeared, they were forcibly pulled back by the Black Forest Domain and eventually turned into dead trees.

The Death Apostle's pupils contracted sharply, and it finally gave up the idea of ​​escaping.

The aura of death emanated from him, coalescing into a jet-black scythe, which he held in his hand, making him look like the Grim Reaper who held the power of life and death.

As an apostle-level believer, his reliance has never been anything more than bizarre—his death power alone is enough to crush most superhumans.

Even if Lu Yan couldn't be measured by the standards of a normal Sequence 6, he didn't believe that the other party could kill him so easily.

His only fear was that such a burst of power would alert those old guys in the Inquisition.

Little did he know that this intense aura of death, when seen through Lu Yan's eyes of punishment, only transformed into an even more turbulent sin.

"You killed so many people, committed so many atrocities, did you think no one knew?"

Lu Yan suddenly spoke.

The Death Apostle paused for a moment, not understanding his meaning, but not wanting to waste words, he just wanted to end the battle as soon as possible.

"Forget it, Sequence 5 criminals are hard to find, so let's just make do with this one."

Lu Yan gently pressed down with his fingertip, and the execution ground domain suddenly expanded, completely enveloping the Death Apostle.

"Three—three areas!"

The Death Apostle froze completely, frantically swinging its Death Scythe in an attempt to break it.

Just then, the weapon box behind Lu Yan opened, and the weapon tomb opened accordingly.

But this time, only Dawn's Radiance flew out alone, transforming into a silver-armored knight in the air. Carrying the might of a military strategist, he charged straight at the Death Apostle. The Death Apostle was unable to dodge in time and was struck by a spear, causing most of the death aura around him to dissipate instantly.

"Four—four—"

His eyes were glazed over, completely unable to comprehend how Lu Yan could master so many completely different fields!

In that instant, a black inverted cross flashed in Lu Yan's eyes, and the Eye of Punishment was quietly activated.

The death apostle's most prized possession, the death energy, suddenly went out of control and transformed into countless sins, relentlessly assaulting his soul.

"In my name, I sentence you to death."

99

Lu Yan's voice was icy cold, like that of the most merciless god of punishment.

Then, various instruments of torture fell one after another in the execution ground, engulfing the messenger of death, and the mournful screams were endless.

Before long, the screams gradually subsided, leaving only a disfigured corpse.

[Executioner Promotion Condition 3: Execute a Sequence 5 criminal without anyone knowing (1/1) - Completed]

[Executioner Promotion Requirement 4: Master a unique skill that can completely erase all traces of execution (1/1) - Completed]

"Hmm? Condition four is also fulfilled?"

Lu Yan was a little surprised. He had been prepared for a long battle, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

"Mastering a unique skill that can completely erase traces of execution — it turns out the panel takes the mirror space into account."

Lu Yan couldn't help but smile.

The mirror space doesn't offer any combat bonuses; its only advantage is its concealment and isolation from the outside world.

Unexpectedly, it became the best choice for covert execution.

"Alright, that makes the remaining two conditions much simpler."

Lu Yan nodded slightly, but when he saw that there was still no response to condition one, he frowned again.

The panel's requirement of "no one knows" was higher than he had thought; it probably required a criminal who committed the crime alone and had no witnesses.

"Hopefully the executioner can do his best."

Lu Yan let out a soft breath, his gaze returning to the corpse of the Death Apostle.

At this moment, black smoke continuously emerged from the corpse, gathering in mid-air to form the shadow of a grim reaper, whose scythe was pointed directly at Lu Yan.

Lu Yan remained completely calm, instead curling the corners of his mouth into a smile.

It's time for the much-anticipated "fleecing" part of the game again!
