Chapter 334
After being tormented, Wei Miao's will possessed a resilience that was hard for others of the same level to match. Moreover, her mental attributes were not weak, and the demonic sound could not easily shake her.

The mysterious scriptures chanted by the man in black possess a certain magic, making people involuntarily yearn to listen and understand them. However, the knowledge contained within is too profound, and one can only waste their energy without being able to understand it. In a daze, one's thinking becomes stagnant, one's blood rushes to the head, and the final result is that one's brain explodes.

Wei Miao usually uses the identity marker 【Eufia Itno】, but at this moment she instantly switched to 【Scholar】. With full concentration, the resulting boost in comprehension allowed her to barely decipher the meaning in the scriptures.

Lin Ming, who was standing to the side, had calmed down. In a moment of quick thinking, he used poison to make himself deaf, and only then was he free.

Seeing that the Grand Eunuch remained inactive, he did not rashly interrupt him.

"All suffering and distress will be relieved..."

When the man in black finished reciting, he stared incredulously at the radiant supervisor in front of him.

This was the first time he had ever seen someone listen to this passage in its entirety without being affected.

Even more strangely, the other person seemed to look more energetic.

Wei Miao pondered the passage with lingering interest: "Using external objects to cultivate the mind, to awaken in suffering... What a cryptic passage."

In her hazy understanding, she gained a deeper knowledge of the idol.

[Note: You have received the blessing of "Enlightenment," resulting in a permanent, minor, and comprehensive improvement in your spirit.]

Wei Miao's eyes lit up; she hadn't expected to gain this much.

Many of the enhancements players receive in dungeons are temporary, such as an increase in physical constitution, which disappears once they leave the dungeon.

However, the psychological aspects of the effects can be removed from the copy and permanently retained.

However, the enhancements gained by special dependent individuals like those with "cross-shaped double pupils" are real and tangible.

She asked earnestly, "Is there more? One more?"

The man in black was speechless for a moment, then sneered, "Your Excellency is quite capable."

The news of Pei Wenwei's breakthrough to the seventh level could not be kept from these people, and they were not surprised by her strength.

"Not at all, not as capable as Sect Master Ji, who dared to kill the people from the Imperial Secretariat and the Imperial Observatory," Wei Miao replied with a half-smile.

From the appearance of the cultivation technique to the system notification, she confirmed that the person in front of her was Ji Ming, the sect leader of the Enlightenment Sect.

The deity he cultivated was a protector of enlightenment, at the seventh level of the sect, and the four-armed phantom was a manifestation of his supernatural powers.

As he spoke, a powerful, snow-white blade of light shot straight at Ji Ming from behind.

At the same time, Wei Miao maintained her smile, switched back to her [Eufia Iteno] identity badge, and unhesitatingly slashed out with her sword.

"Broken Fire Style: One Slash".

The slashing power is amplified to its maximum by the power of Eternal Night, and combined with the attribute "Blood of Sin," the sense of crisis is chilling.

The two blades attacked from both sides, tacitly sealing off all of Ji Ming's escape routes.

The blade's edge arrived in the blink of an eye, and Ji Ming could only defend against it in haste.

The four-armed phantom simultaneously forms hand seals in front of and behind the body, with the right hand raised to the chest, palm facing outward and fingers naturally extended upward, and the left hand naturally downward, palm facing outward and fingertips drooping.

"Fearlessness Mudra, Wish-Granting Mudra!"

A pale golden light emanated from his palm, and a crimson-gold swastika symbol condensed in mid-air, radiating a magnificent brilliance as it met the flash of the blade.

In an instant, the two characters in front and behind were shattered at the same time, which also dissipated most of the power of the blade light, allowing it to barely cut into the palms of the four hands.

The palms of the other two hands were covered with a layer of frost, and the joints were difficult to bend.

His two front hands were almost split in two by a horizontal slash in the palm, and black smoke rose from the edges of the wounds, indicating that some kind of force was corroding his body and was difficult to remove. In one exchange, all four of his hands were crippled.

Ji Ming narrowed his eyes; he knew who had launched the sneak attack.

"Sect Leader Ji, why don't we settle our old and new scores together?"

A deep, magnetic voice sounded, and a figure dressed in black casual clothes landed lightly behind him.

Beneath the bamboo hat was a weathered face, handsome with striking features, holding a white-gold goose-feather knife.

Wei Miao recognized the newcomer: "Snow Wave Sword Technique, Xie Zhaohui."

This person is also one of the Seven Sects, without any sect or faction. He comes from the Xie family of Yinhong and is the eldest son of the Xie family, the elder brother of Xie Yinyao.

The Xie family fell into poverty but was not divided up, largely because of the influence of this member of the Seven Clans.

He once studied under the wandering swordsman "Tuo," whose idol was Dingwu Zhenjun. He was skilled in all kinds of martial arts, especially swordsmanship.

Xie Zhaohui was known as a "hero" in the martial arts world and had a long-standing feud with the Imperial Observatory. His intervention to stop Ji Ming showed that the people of the capital still had a lot of influence, as even a member of the Seven Sects was willing to help his enemy.

Ji Ming had done a lot of bad things, and the two of them disliked each other.

However, as Ji Ming turned around, another person emerged from the darkness of the inn ruins.

Everyone present was startled at the same time, because none of them had noticed when the other had arrived.

This ability to conceal oneself is something to be wary of.

"Ok?"

Wei Miao looked at the other party in surprise, because he was the black-clad man who had made the first move, wearing a brass mask with an expressionless face, making it impossible to tell his true nature from his appearance.

"Gu Fuhui lost? Gu Fuhui is a veteran of the Seven Sects and is extremely cautious. He must have some hidden trump cards. Even I wouldn't be confident of killing him in such a short time. And I have a 50-point disguise coefficient. No matter how strong he is, he should only be slightly stronger than me at most... Is he really a player?"

Wei Miao threw a [Crimson Contamination] at him.

[Determining...]

[Multi-dimensional assessment failed! The opponent's resistance to contamination (a combination of mental, spiritual, fate, and physical resistance) is higher than that of the contaminant. You will suffer a certain degree of mental depletion as a backlash!]

The information revealed by the system prompt caught her attention.

Compared to the mental backlash that left her feeling dizzy, Wei Miao was more concerned about another issue.

There was no player description or double contamination warning. What does this mean?
First, the other party is not a player. Second, although there are seven sects, there is only one main personality, and it is able to resist corruption.

An outlier.

How can he break free from the conventional logic of the idol system?

Perhaps he didn't cultivate the divine idol system, or perhaps he modified the system.

Both are valuable.

"Hmm?" The mysterious man seemed to have noticed something. He turned to her, his voice slightly distorted and muffled due to the mask, as if deliberately processed. "Interesting. Your idol clearly doesn't have such abilities."

Upon hearing this, Wei Miao knew that he had noticed the scarlet contamination.

If contamination is successful, it will be done silently, making it difficult for the target to detect. However, if the contamination fails, and the target's abilities surpass those of oneself, complete concealment may not be possible.

She no longer concealed it; a cross-shaped double pupil appeared on her forehead, with eerie blood-red irises overlapping and the pupils forming an infinity symbol.

All three eyes fixed on him.
