I have a volume of human scriptures

The voice from the Spirit Crystal World did not express any doubt.

She was asking this question very seriously.

In fact, she and that Thunder World were old rivals. They had fought each other in the Battlefield of Despair before, and later they both retreated to the second line, but they were still enemies.

Therefore, she knew perfectly well just how powerful that guy, whose entire body was completely enveloped by endless lightning, was.

That's definitely not your average extreme athlete.

Even if she were to take action herself, she might not be able to reliably suppress her opponent.

Even victory is uncertain, let alone annihilation.

What makes this little guy, who has only evolved thirty-eight times, so confident that he can kill him?

If he can really do it, then all is well, he has achieved his goal, and the World Alliance Justice has taken down one of the enemy's patrol posts.

But what if he can't? Once the Thunderous World is free, it could wipe out all the patrols she sent out in an instant.

She didn't dare to take that risk, or rather, she didn't dare to take it lightly.

At least... she couldn't accompany him and let countless patrolmen take risks until she was sure that Yu Chen had enough confidence and strength.

Upon hearing this, Yu Chen's expression softened.

He could tell that the other party wasn't deliberately making things difficult for him, but rather was simply discussing the matter at hand.

"Because we have to stay at the patrol post, I can't leave. If we really cooperate with you and attack that patrol post according to your plan..."

The Spirit Crystal World continued, "In a sense, that's equivalent to entrusting the lives of thousands of patrolmen to your hands. If you really want to convince me, then please demonstrate... sufficient strength."

Yu Chen nodded upon hearing this: "Then I'll leave it to you to test me!"

The Spirit Crystal World nodded.

In the next instant, an invisible force field emanated from her body, instantly covering and enveloping the area where she and Yu Chen were!

The other patrolmen at the patrol station were completely baffled and didn't understand what was going on.

Captain Jin Hui was secretly sweating – Yu Chen was someone he had brought back, and if he clashed with Captain Ling Jing, he would probably be implicated as well.

But now that things have come to this, whatever the circumstances, he can only wait.

Within the isolated world.

"Like that thunderous world, I have evolved thirty-nine times."

The Spirit Crystal World spoke up: "But what makes me different from him is that he retreated to the patrol post because he failed to break through the bottleneck, while I... am preparing to break through that bottleneck."

Even so, he was someone who had once touched that 'realm', and if we only consider his current combat strength, he should be a notch stronger than me.

Therefore, it is quite fitting for me to be your opponent—only by defeating me will you have a chance to defeat him.

As she spoke, a vast radiance emanated from her body, like an endless, beautiful mist, yet carrying an aura of unfathomable danger.

"This is one of my abilities, light particles."

The Spirit Crystal World continued, "Everything that comes into contact with it will change its nature in a short time, be assimilated by the endless light, and thus dissipate into the Source Sea."

Be careful. We're just having a contest. If you can't hold on, tell me immediately. I don't want to hurt you, after all, you saved Sheng Yi and Jin Hui.

Logically speaking, if it were a life-or-death battle, the Spirit Crystal World wouldn't have told Yu Chen these things.

But she still gave them a heads-up beforehand.

Yu Chen nodded.

As the endless, boundless mist of light converged toward them, they understood why the Spirit Crystal World had separated them from the other patrolmen. This ability was indiscriminate, making it quite terrifying.

but……

“Lord Lingjing, this is not enough.” Yu Chen shook his head.

"Such a confident little fellow." Spirit Crystal World shook its head with a smile.

She certainly didn't think that this simple move could defeat Yu Chen—after all, if someone had the guts to try and wipe out a hunter's patrol post, they must have something special to offer.

However, she didn't believe that Yu Chen could easily break through her moves.

Just watch quietly as the other person does what they want.

but……

What puzzled her most was that Yu Chen didn't make any move, neither dodging nor resisting, as if he hadn't seen the light mist that was about to touch the barrier of his world.

The Spirit Crystal World frowned, watching helplessly as the endless mist of light was about to taint Yu Chen.

"What are you thinking...?"

The voice sounded rather urgent as he reached out to retract the light mist.

But the next moment, she heard Yu Chen's voice in her ear: "No need, they can't hurt me."

This forced the Spirit Crystal World to retract its stop.

Then, Yu Chen remained standing there motionless, without making any move.

The Spirit Crystal World frowned, staring intently.

But the next instant, something chilling happened—the light mist vanished just as it was about to touch the barrier of the new world.

No sign.

Only ripples like waves spread across the void, and then all the vast light mist vanished without a trace before it could touch Yu Chen. Not a single one of the billions of light particles was an exception!
The Spirit Crystal World was stunned.

The endless mist of light continued to drift toward Yu Chen.

But they all ended up with the same result: disappearing without a trace before they could actually touch Yu Chen.

Then, the Spirit Crystal World suddenly realized that although the light mist had disappeared, the light particles she released in this void did not show any signs of decreasing.

The total amount remains unchanged.

She was stunned.

Upon closer inspection, they suddenly discovered that all the vanished light mist had converged behind Yu Chen!
In that instant, she suddenly realized that all the light mist attacking Yu Chen, no matter which angle it attacked from, would disappear from its original position before touching Yu Chen and reappear behind him.

It's like a vast, white jade world covered by teleportation portals, where everything attacked is transferred away.

At this moment, how could the Spirit Crystal World not understand?
This is... the Way of the Primal Space!
Only the Way of the Origin Space can directly influence "ability".

A look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

Unexpectedly, this little guy, without any significant background, was able to control a primordial artifact—like that Limit Breaker, she also didn't believe that Yu Chen had comprehended and controlled the primordial space principle himself. Yu Chen, however, was no longer concerned about this.

The Spirit Crystal World showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever—the Origin Artifact was also a manifestation of its own strength.

"Lord Lingjing, stop testing us and go all out," Yu Chen said, taking a deep breath.

Lingjing nodded and with a wave of her hand completely dispelled the endless light mist—this was merely the first ability she awakened, not her full power.

At the same time, as the endless light mist dissipated, Lord Lingjing unleashed an infinitely terrifying aura.

That crystal-clear body turned pitch black at this moment, as if it had been completely soaked in the deepest ink!

Immediately afterwards, a sound rang out from between heaven and earth.

“This is my second ability, which I call… Dark Curtain.”

The Spirit Crystal World continued to speak.

"Unlike light particles, it has a more powerful attack and a more aggressive nature. It will continue to increase and expand until it completely devours and submerges everything in its path."

One thing I need to remind you is that even if you possess an artifact of the primordial space that can completely transfer all your abilities, the Dark Curtain is not like particles of light. It can eventually completely fill this space, and as long as you are in this space, it is impossible to completely escape it.

So if you can't hold on any longer, tell me as soon as possible—you must tell me as soon as possible, because I can't completely control this method right now either.

The voice from the Spirit Crystal World was heavy with seriousness, and there was no hint of joking in it.

Then, endless darkness erupted from her body like a terrifying storm, spreading towards Yu Chen!

hum-

At that moment, everything in the darkness vanished completely, from tiny dust particles to drifting meteorites, and even the turbulent currents of space and time were swallowed up!

This move is somewhat similar to Yu Chen's Devouring Power, except that this darkness, which is purely a "phenomenon," is even more pervasive than his Devouring Mist.

A thick, endless darkness instantly enveloped the entire area, sweeping towards Yu Chen!

The Spirit Crystal World was also trying its best to control its speed, while waiting for Yu Chen to call a halt.

But she didn't hear it.

Until the endless darkness completely engulfed and swallowed the other party.

At that moment, the Spirit Crystal World was thrown into chaos!

Because she could already sense that Yu Chen's presence was completely gone from this place, as if he had vanished entirely.

—It was swallowed up.

She was immediately filled with endless regret—because Yu Chen had withstood her light mist earlier, she thought that he must at least have some ability, or that even if he was no match for her, he would have recognized the situation and chosen to give up immediately.

Who would have thought that this hothead would be swallowed up by endless darkness without making a sound?

Too stubborn, too headstrong.

But then, a deep sense of self-reproach arose in Lingjing World's heart.

She secretly blamed herself for not stopping in time and for trusting Yu Chen too much, which led to the current disastrous consequences and caused his junior brother and his savior to die by her own power!

Just as she was filled with self-blame and guilt, the endless darkness slowly dissipated.

Gazing at the silent, bowed spirit crystal world, a familiar voice suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

"Lord Lingjing, what's wrong?"

At that moment, the Spirit Crystal World suddenly raised its head!

A look of utter disbelief appeared in his eyes!

Because what was reflected in her eyes at this moment was a vast, white world that was perfectly intact, remaining exactly where it had been before, without any change or damage!

In that instant, the Spirit Crystal World felt a chill run down its spine!

It's like seeing a ghost!
She had clearly been unable to sense Yu Chen's presence at all before!
That's why she was convinced that Yu Chen had been killed by mistake.

How come at this moment... the other party is back in front of me completely unharmed?
"This...how is this possible?!"

The Spirit Crystal World couldn't help but gasp in surprise!
"Just a trivial trick." Yu Chen shook his head and did not explain further.

Just now, he activated the Origin of Time, which allowed him to briefly enter another spacetime, thus completely avoiding the endless darkness that could devour and destroy him.

However, he did not intend to reveal the entire Spirit Crystal World.

The other party didn't seem to intend to investigate further; their surprised expression already showed her approval!

They spared no praise.

"Excellent! Excellent! As expected of the one who saved Sheng Yi and Jin Hui, you are completely unharmed under such an attack!"

Lingjing World took a deep breath, then suddenly changed the subject: "—With the Origin Space Artifact, you can be said to be invincible against all enemies who have not overcome their bottlenecks."

But... I still need to see, to see that you possess sufficient means to harm the Thunderous World—otherwise, once your spirit is exhausted and you can no longer control the Origin Artifact, defeat is inevitable as well.”

Yu Chen nodded; this was something he had expected and was not surprised by.

In the next instant, he formed a hand seal, and the seemingly simple yet incredibly profound mark solidified in his hand.

The next moment, an invisible silver light pierced through his hand.

On the arm in the Spirit Crystal World, an incredibly tiny wound was left!

The Spirit Crystal World nodded slightly.

She was right. Since the other party had mastered the Dao of Origin Space through the Origin Artifact, it could not only be used for defense, but also for attack.

That was just now.

She couldn't sense that invisible fluctuation, but it truly hurt her.

She understood that this was a small test from the other party; otherwise, that wisp of light might not have been aimed at her arm, but rather... her very essence.

"All right."

The Spirit Crystal World nodded with satisfaction: "You have passed my test. I can cooperate with you and send patrols to your command—but I have one more question, though it doesn't matter if you don't answer it. Why are you so determined to destroy the patrol post of Node 33? Or rather, what do you hope to gain from this war?"

Yu Chen remained silent for a long time before making no attempt to hide anything.

"I have only one request: after those hunters die, their remains... shall all belong to me."

No longer hidden.

An endless, boundless black mist bloomed around him. (End of Chapter)
