Remove all restrictions and transform into a bizarre girl.

Chen Nian knew clearly that this blood-red world was not the real world, but merely an illusion.

And if this strange entity wants to kill, it must prevent those trapped in the blood-red world from returning.

Therefore, Chen Nian naturally wouldn't wait in the same place.

What she needs now is to fight! Fight!

After walking for a while, the fog ahead gradually thinned, revealing the outline of a low, square building.

The wall surface was covered with dark deposits with irregular edges, resembling a layered structure formed over a long period of time.

She walked up to the building and along the edge of the wall for a while, but did not see an obvious entrance. The attachments on the wall surface were interrupted at this point, and the color was lighter than the surrounding area, as if it had been peeled off by an external force.

She stopped and touched the lighter-colored area with her hand, feeling a slight looseness on the surface. She tentatively pushed along the loose edge.

The attached material moved inward a distance, creating an opening large enough for one person to pass through.

Without hesitation, she squeezed into the opening.

The light inside was dimmer, but it was still recognizable as a room-like space.

At this location, a human figure was even spotted.

The figure appeared for a second and then disappeared.

Chen Nian was taken aback, then the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Has it finally arrived?

I can't wait any longer.

Chen Nian slightly rotated the Miao sword in her hand, and an icy blue halo flowed along the blade, illuminating a small area in front of her.

Her gaze wasn't fixed on the direction where the figure disappeared, but rather she kept it in the corner of her eye, watching for any changes that might occur in the room.

Just then, a claw-like shadow attacked Chen Nian.

The claw shadow arrived quickly, its trajectory almost invisible in the dark red light; one could only sense the sound of air being torn apart, which became sharp and short as it approached.

Before the sound of the airflow became sharper, Chen Nian had already taken a step to the side. The claw shadow swept past her side and landed on the wall behind her, leaving several parallel scratches on the wall.

Without pausing, she turned her body as she took a side step, and the Miao sword slashed along the trajectory of her turn toward the direction from which the claw shadow originated.

The blade traced an arc in the air before slashing straight down.

boom!

Chen Nian's attack missed the claw shadow.

Instead, it struck the wall behind it.

The moment the blade struck the wall, it produced a dull thud that was particularly clear in the enclosed space.

The residue on the wall cracked where the blade touched, and dark fragments peeled off from the edge of the crack and fell to the ground at the feet.

Chen Nian did not sheathe her sword, keeping the blade embedded in the wall. Her gaze fell on the direction where the claw shadow had disappeared. The claw shadow had moved to the side as the blade approached, leaving a position further away than before.

Before Chen Nian could hit her, the claw shadow launched another attack.

The claw shadow arrived even faster this time, without making a sound of tearing through the air first; it was like a rapid advance after gathering strength.

Instead of dodging again, Chen Nian drew the Miao sword embedded in the wall and used the momentum to flip the blade, changing from a horizontal grip to a vertical block, and met the approaching claw shadow in its path.

The claw strike made a short, metallic clang as it hit the blade. The impact traveled along the blade to her arm, slightly heavier than expected, but still within her tolerance.

interesting.

This bizarre combat power is at the peak of Sequence Seven.

Good thing you came.

The stronger the opponent, the more Chen Nian's potential can be stimulated. It would be best to have a hundred or eighty of them, and only under strong pressure can he advance to Sequence Six.

After blocking the attack, she did not rush to retaliate. Instead, she used the momentum to take a half step back, creating a small distance, and readjusted her grip on the knife.

The claw shadow paused for a moment after its attack was blocked, not immediately withdrawing, as if assessing the outcome of the strike.

Taking advantage of the pause, Chen Nian took a step forward, the tip of her blade changing from a vertical block to a diagonal thrust, advancing a short distance along the direction the claw shadow was retracting.

when!

The two clashed again.

The blade and claw shadow collided again, this time with a heavier impact, carrying a sustained pressure that spread outwards from the point of contact. Chen Nian could feel that force traveling along the blade to her wrist.

Cool!

continue!

Instead of completely resisting the force, she deflected it to the side, tilting the blade slightly to redirect the claw's force to the empty space beside her. Then, using the momentum from deflecting the force, she readjusted the angle of the blade tip, turning it from angled to facing forward, and slashed out again.

And Claw Shadow reacted very quickly.

Once again, they blocked Chen Nian's attack.

This feeling of being evenly matched made Chen Nian feel extremely satisfied.

She could feel the energy circuits within her body being constantly compressed and purified during the battle.

Every encounter left a clear mark on Chen Nian's perception.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Chen Nian continued her attack.

Claw Shadow began to show a slight change in rhythm as it dealt with her continuous attacks.

Chen Nian's increasingly fierce fighting spirit made even the claw-like figure a little restless.

It took about half a beat longer to adjust when blocking the fourth strike than before, and it retreated about a step wider when it hit the sixth strike.

Chen Nian did not speed up or change the current rhythm, maintaining the same force output and angle distribution in every exchange.

Let those small changes accumulate on their own through continuous confrontation.

By the ninth encounter, the distance the claw shadow had retreated was significantly greater than before.

Taking advantage of the moment it retreated, Chen Nian stepped forward, the ice film spreading out beneath her feet without leaving a trace, increasing her speed.

cut!

Chen Nian unleashed another slash.

This time, Claw Shadow couldn't withstand it and was cut in half by Chen Nian.

The dust left after the claw shadow dissipated hovered in the air for a moment before slowly settling, leaving a thin layer of grayish-white powder on the ground, contrasting with the surrounding dark ground.

As expected, this is a consciousness space, not a real world. Killing the monster didn't bring any benefits.

However, Chen Nian wasn't after these azure crystals; the improvement in her strength was genuine, so she was still very excited.

She stood there for a while, and after confirming that there were no abnormal fluctuations in her condition, she continued walking forward along the passage.

After the claw shadows disappeared, the light in the passage became slightly brighter than before, and the dark red hues were gradually fading, as if diluted by something, slowly losing their saturation in the field of vision.

It seems that this crimson space can't create as many monsters as it wants; there's a limit.

After walking a few steps, another strange creature ambushed Chen Nian from the side.
