They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 137 The Guide Between Existence and Non-existence, Yellow Springs
Dan Lei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Albion describe how he obtained the Void Fate.

Albion's process of comprehending the Void Destiny is more akin to that of a Chaos Healer than a Self-Destroyer.

Although both are travelers on a path of nihilism, their actual performances are worlds apart.

Just like the difference between a doctor who walks the path of abundance with the mission of healing and saving lives and a traveler of abundance who survives by plundering the life force of others.

However, the line between a Chaos Doctor and a Self-Destructor is very thin. Dan Lei felt that he should pay more attention to Albion's mental health in the future.

If Albion were to suffer the psychological trauma inflicted on it by Issei Hyoudou in the original story, it would probably self-destruct in no time.

Therefore, Dan Lei's tone immediately relaxed, and he smiled.
"Albion, then congratulations."

"Go ahead, deal with these relentlessly pursuing monsters first, then show me your newfound power."

Seeing Danlei smile, Albion knew he had passed the test, and excitedly roared...

"Leave it to me! I can't stand these guys who treat the Void Destiny like trash!"

After saying that, Albion spewed a mouthful of poisonous flame at the surrounding sea patrol rangers, Blood Sin Spirits.

The poisonous flames empowered by the Void Fate are equally effective against these Blood Sin Spirits, and Albion's current halved power is now working under the empowerment of the Void Fate.

However, this ability is no longer forcibly halved like a rule, but instead involves a judgment process.

If the affected person's Fate Power is less than Albion's, then there's nothing to say.

After one's own destiny power is broken through by Albion's void power, it will be forcibly halved and then activated. After the energy in the body that sustains activity is halved, and then halved again, and there are no treasures on one's body, regardless of whether one is human or ghost, the energy in the body probably will not be able to support the body to stand up.

Conversely, if the affected party's Fate Power is stronger than Albion's, the Void Fate cannot break through its Fate Defense. Albion's halving is more like a debuff that increases the efficiency of breaking through. After the enemy is affected, the defense enhanced by Fate will be reduced by Albion's ability.

If Albion were to use its original, infinitely reducing poison, along with Void Fate, the enemy would essentially be afflicted with a DoT that infinitely reduces strength or Fate's defense.

Removing this DoT is about as difficult as expelling the void that is eroding you.

Of course, Albion had only just entered the Void Path at this time, so he couldn't directly break through the defenses of these elite sea rangers who had replaced their original Path of Fate with the power of the Void Path.

However, the weakened Void Fate Force can no longer resist Albion's poison flames.

Moreover, there's no need to use extremely potent poison; ordinary poisonous flames are enough to incinerate the bodies of these blood spirits.

As for their attacks, when they hit Albion, who had also comprehended the Void Fate, there was no problem of the annoying Void Corruption.

Blood Sin Spirit's normal attacks do not involve mental impact. Since everyone is just empty destiny energy and has no extra power, there is no question of one corrupting the other.

Honestly, seeing Albion's performance, Dan Lei felt that it was really timely for him to awaken to the Void Destiny.

You should know that after the recent test, Dan Lei dared not use the Spirit Binding Technique on the Blood Sin Spirit casually.

The obsession with these things rushes straight to the brain, like someone sticking a tube straight into the brain through the ear.

Even so, the brutal battlefield and death were not enough to cause Dan Lei to have a mental breakdown.

Blood Sin Spirit is not the Yellow Springs. No matter how tragic the battlefield of Zhu Luo is, its death aura is definitely less than one ten-thousandth of the death aura carried by the countless "souls" that have been exorcised in the Yellow Springs over the years.

But the void power that comes with memories is a real problem.

The void power combined with obsession in the Blood Sin Spirit is meant to lead people to their own destruction. If Dan Lei were to endure too much of it, he wasn't sure if his memories and destiny could withstand it.

So, while Albion was clearing away the blood spirits that kept jumping out of the sea, Danlei took out [King Albion] and used the power of light and magic to cut down one blood spirit each.

The results were quite good. As long as the two forces broke through the Void Fate on the Blood Sin Spirit's body, they could effectively kill the main body.

Moreover, the destructive effect of the power of light is particularly strong, and the evil-dispelling properties contained in its power seem to restrain these souls composed of obsession.

However, the blood spirits in the sea seem endless.

Danlei asked, "Loretta's list has so many people on it? Does that mean the Blood Sin Spirit can be resurrected?"

Therefore, Danlei decided to stop getting entangled with the blood spirits in this area for the time being.

Since we lack information, let's find a place to rest first, set up the workshop, and then slowly study these blood-stained spirits.

However, just as Dan Lei recalled Albion to prepare for his escape, a sudden downpour began.

Dan Lei didn't take the rainstorm to heart. Although the rainwater was full of ethereal power, it posed no threat as long as it didn't break through the protection of the Destiny Path.

However, Danlei forgot that a downpour is often a harbinger of someone's arrival.

Dan Lei had already called Albion back to his side, preparing to fight while running.

A crimson light suddenly streaked across Dan Lei's head before he could react.

The blood-stained spirits behind him were instantly swept away by the red light.

Dan Lei felt a chill run down his spine, because if that red light had been aimed at him, he probably would have been cut in two.

Moreover, the power of the void destiny within this red light is simply terrifying.

Dan Lei felt that if he were really hit, the eggs he produced would probably be of the void attribute.

Fortunately, at this time and in this place, there was only one person capable of launching such an attack.

So Danlei stopped running and looked up to search for that familiar purple hue.

Soon, Danlei saw a woman in the air wearing a purple combat suit with some kimono-like features, holding a long katana in her left hand and a red "paper umbrella" in her right hand as she slowly descended.

This person was naturally one of Dan Lei's targets on this trip: Huang Quan, the counterpart of Mihoyo's famous actress.

Since Dan Lei didn't move, Huang Quan landed directly in front of Dan Lei and came onto Skarakabaz.

She looked at Danlei indifferently and slowly said...
"This is not a place for the living. You should leave as soon as possible."

However, Dan Lei then said directly
"The last survivor of Izumo Star, the wielder of the [Human] (Nothingness) Blade, Raiden: Forgotten River Guardian: Mei."

Huang Quan was visibly surprised when Dan Lei called out his real name.

However, at this moment, she could no longer feign surprise. She merely opened her mouth slightly before reverting to her usual indifferent expression and saying...
"The last time someone called me that was many years ago."

No one is alive in Izumo anymore. Who are you? Why do you know me and know about my past?

Dan Lei was naturally prepared for Huang Quan's question. For the past two years on his way here, Dan Lei had been thinking about how to properly curry favor with Huang Quan, this super-powerful figure.

So Danlei said with a serious expression.
"My name is Dan Lei. I am a traveler of memories. While I was retrieving memories from the Sea of ​​Memories, I accidentally obtained some memories about Izumo."

Normally, since Izumo is swallowed by the shadow of nothingness, it should be unable to leave any memories in the Sea of ​​Memory.

But in my fragmented memories, I saw the slash you delivered into the void and shadow.

Perhaps it was that one strike that left some fragmented records of Chu Yun in the Sea of ​​Memory. Dan Lei's statement was not made up.

In the PV for "A Thousand Planets Chronicles," titled "[A Single Slash Severs Three Thousand Worlds in the Virtual World]," Huang Quan's slash is said to have unleashed a revolving lantern of the planet's history.

Although this is just an animated representation, it can also be interpreted as Huang Quan cutting out Izumo's memories that were swallowed by the Void Shadow.

Clearly, Huang Quan in reality also saw that revolving lantern.

However, she may have mistaken it for the illusion that she personally destroyed her homeland, and that her reluctance to leave her homeland caused her to have hallucinations.

At this point, Huang Quan had forgotten many things, but Dan Lei reminded her, and she remembered some fragments.

Therefore, Huang Quan, who was also confused about the cause and effect, could only temporarily believe Dan Lei's words, and then asked again.

"So, Danlei, the traveler of memories, you've come to find me? You want to seek Izumo's memories?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei wondered if there was any unexpected surprise. Not to mention that Yun's memories could help him fulfill his destiny, his sword-forging skills were also quite impressive.

Although that thing seems to be comparable to the Divine Key of the Honkai Impact 3rd universe, if we can get our hands on it, we might be able to go to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship and have the craftsmen there create something different.

However, Danlei did not show any desire for Izumo's memories. Instead, he took out Loretta's list and said...

"Actually, no. Although I obtained that memory, the you in the memory has already perished. I don't think you are still alive, so it's impossible for you to come looking for me."

I've come here for two reasons.

The first thing I did was to fulfill a friend's request to erect a monument and offer flowers to the patrolling heroes here.

The imaginary storm outside prevented my friend from doing this in person, so he had to ask me, who was coming over, to do it.

The second thing is that I personally want to see Zhu Luo's body after his death and try to gain memories of this battle through this place.

After all, it's not easy for me to directly access my friend's memories, and I can't understand the full picture of the war just by listening to his narration.

Of course, I also wanted to use Zhuluo's corpse to peek into the memories of this Great Lord of Annihilation.

However, given the current situation here, I think the second issue is more difficult.

After hearing Dan Lei's words and looking at the list he handed over, Huang Quan nodded, returned the paper to Dan Lei, and then said...
"I understand the situation."

However, in my opinion, neither of these things is easy to handle.

First of all, the monster that just attacked you is called Blood Sin Spirit, and they are the manifestations of the obsessions of those sea patrolling rangers.

My purpose in coming here is to destroy them and that black sun.

However, I encountered a special being here, and thus I was delayed for over a hundred years.

Therefore, the first things, erecting a monument and sending flowers, are simple.

However, once this matter is resolved, I will slay the Black Sun, and this planet will be destroyed, rendering your monument and flowers meaningless.

As for the second thing, if you don't want to be consumed by nothingness, don't explore any of the planet's memories.

The planet itself has been completely permeated by nothingness; your attempt to search for memories is tantamount to jumping into a black hole of nothingness to find them.

What Huang Quan said was true, but it was also within Dan Lei's expectations.

Therefore, Danlei answered as prepared.

"Then I will go to the battlefield to collect the relics of those sea patrol knights. I will take them out and use the relics to erect a monument."

As for the memories, I may not collect them, but I must go and see Zhu Luo.

You said the Sea Patrol Knights have all turned into Blood Sin Spirits, then I need to confirm what's going on with Zhu Luo.

"And Ms. Mei, what exactly is your situation? The terrifying power of the Void Fate emanating from you makes me suspect your connection to the anomalies here."

Here, Dan Lei deliberately feigned misunderstanding, and went all out with his act, even adding the blessing of a courier-level breeding destiny.

Dan Lei knew that Huang Quan wouldn't kill him because of a misunderstanding, which is why he dared to act so recklessly.

As expected, seeing Dan Lei's hostility, Huang Quan remained indifferent, his right hand still holding the umbrella, not placing it on the hilt of his sword in preparation for an attack.

Even if Dan Lei were to attack now, she would probably only use her left hand and the scabbard to fight back.

However, seeing that Dan Lei didn't charge forward directly, Huang Quan breathed a sigh of relief and explained.
"You don't need to call me by that name, just call me Huang Quan."

If you want to collect the relics and confirm Zhu Luo's situation, I won't stop you.

In my current situation, all I can say is that I am guarding the path to the abyss of nothingness, guiding every life that does not wish to fall into it back to this world.

As for this planet, its being shrouded in the shadow of nothingness is not my fault.

I was actually drawn here by the shadows.

I originally intended to eliminate this shadow directly, but as I just mentioned, on this planet, I encountered a special being, a Blood Sin Spirit with complete consciousness and reason.

I think you should meet him first before deciding whether you believe me.

Dan Lei knew that Huang Quan was referring to Tiernan's Blood Sin Spirit. Considering that Pinocchio would definitely go there himself later, he decided to go and see him.

Dan Lei then retracted his fighting stance and said to Huang Quan.
"In that case, Lady Huangquan, tell me how to proceed. The spirit beneath my feet will guide us to our destination."

Huang Quan did not refuse the request to lead the way and pointed in a direction.

However, Dan Lei was so excited to see Huang Quan that he actually let someone with no sense of direction lead the way.

Thus, Danlei happily got the experience of traveling around the planet.

If Dan Lei hadn't been able to use spatial coordinates to determine location, and if his memory hadn't been enhanced by his Memory Path to the point of being able to remember everything he saw, he would have ended up going around in circles countless times.

After running around in vain, Dan Lei remembered Huang Quan's terrible sense of direction, so he decided not to make things difficult for her.

So Danlei began to ask questions.

"Huang Quan, stop giving directions. Tell me what the characteristics are around that Blood Sin Spirit, and how you usually find it?"

Huang Quan replied directly.

"I don't remember the surrounding environment, I only remember that it was on a small island with a cave on it."

I don't usually leave him, but I came here today because I sensed the presence of living people and the sounds of fighting.

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei was utterly speechless. It was as if he hadn't said anything at all. It seemed that he would have to rely on himself to find Tiernan.
