Xingtie: My silly online friend is actually a raccoon!

In that instant, the purplish-black mist on the surface of the Devouring Enderman became even denser, making it almost impossible to see the figure inside the mist.

The eerie purplish-black color resembled ink dropped into clear water, staining the surrounding air with its hue.

The fiery energy she had just absorbed was rapidly transforming within her body, and her aura was steadily increasing.

Seeing the increasingly powerful Devouring Enderman, Lu Ze decided to strike first.

He turned his head to look into those beautiful purple eyes and said solemnly, "Black Tower, find her weakness as soon as possible, I'll cover for you."

A monster that constantly regenerates by consuming energy; ranged energy attacks will only give it more energy, so you can only use melee attacks to hold it off.

As a researcher, Daheita's close combat skills are actually average, and now she can't even provide ranged support.

The Great Black Tower nodded to him.

Be careful.

"Don't worry, I have a trump card to save my life."

After Lu Ze finished speaking, he transformed into a long rainbow and rushed towards the Devouring Shadow with the Crossing Calamity in his hand.

With his spiritual power fully unleashed, the sword's edge traced a pale golden path through the air.

Seeing the two locked in combat, the Great Black Tower's eyes flashed with a faint purple light, and its Deciphering skill was activated once more.

The data transmission progress bar slowly climbed in the corner of the field of view, and the various parameters of the Devouring Ender appeared and disappeared line by line, with the parsing speed as slow as a tortoise crawling.

Seeing Lu Ze charging towards him, the Devouring Shadow seemed to let out a silent laugh.

She took the initiative and delivered a seemingly ordinary punch.

The fist appeared slow, but it was actually incredibly fast. Lu Ze had barely seen her punching posture when the wind from the punch was already pressing down on his chest.

His pupils contracted sharply, and he quickly parried with his sword.

Ding ding ding.

Three punches landed squarely on the sword. Lu Ze's arm went numb from the impact, and he slid back several meters before regaining his balance.

That's weird, so weird.

It looked like only one punch, but when it landed on the sword, it felt like three punches, and the force of each punch was exactly the same.

He didn't have time to think it through, because the next attack was imminent.

The attack of the Devouring Shadow was like a storm, with fist shadows overlapping fist shadows, each strike carrying that strange "one becomes three" effect.

Unfamiliar with his opponent's attack patterns, Lu Ze was forced to retreat steadily, barely managing to defend himself with his reflexes, unable to retaliate even with a single move.

He secretly groaned inwardly, vowing that he must find some martial arts techniques to practice when he got back.

Having the spiritual power of a true immortal, yet being suppressed and beaten because of a lack of decent swordsmanship, is an incredibly frustrating feeling.

House seemingly endless rain.

As Lu Ze struggled to defend himself, the sword Du'e in his hand let out a miserable scream:

"Master, I'm breaking!"

"What?!" Lu Ze exclaimed in surprise.

He took a half step back, barely dodging the attack, and looked down at the long sword in his hand.

The sword of the Crossing Calamity was as white as new, without even a single crack, and did not look like it was about to break.

"An intelligent AI shouldn't be thinking of slacking off or going on strike," Lu Ze asked, looking puzzled.

"What happened?"

At this moment, the large black tower behind them provided an explanation.

"The purplish-black mist surrounding her body has been analyzed—it's the manifestation of a special law capable of devouring the future," the Great Black Tower said solemnly.

"Your sword may look brand new, but it has actually been devoured by the future. A few more punches and it will disappear completely."

In other words, the sword itself is not broken now, but rather the "process" of going from good to bad was consumed in advance.

When a sword's future is completely devoured, it will disappear directly from the timeline in the next second, without even the possibility of repair.

Lu Ze looked down at the Du'e in his hand. It was the first gift Fu Xuan had given him when they were on the Immortal Ship Luofu. At this moment, it was emitting a slight buzzing sound, as if it were in fear.
