Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chen Ming installed the jar containing the Enlightenment Nerve into the device and pressed the start button.

The only thing left to do was watch.

In addition to maintaining the blockade of converting Spiritual Power into Spiritual Energy against the Black Mist Spirit Ability User himself, Chen Ming also intensified his deep perception of the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s physical body.

Instantly, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User felt as if every secret of his body was exposed in Chen Ming’s eyes, making him incredibly panicked, as if constantly being captured by countless surveillance cameras.

But there was nothing he could do; he couldn’t break free from the shackles on his body, and begging for mercy couldn’t sway Chen Ming’s stone-cold heart.

He could only wait here to die, just like the person he had personally killed once before.

After the Spirit Awakening Nerve Extractor was activated.

As before.

The extractor delivered the specially cultivated Enlightenment Nerve before the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s eyes.

However, slightly different from what he had seen with his own eyes before.

When this Enlightenment Nerve was brought before the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s eyes, the device injected something into the Enlightenment Nerve, some default apparatus material, rather than something that required subsequent preparation.

This injection made the specially cultivated Enlightenment Nerve even more vigorous, like a fat, fierce white worm, constantly probing the Black Mist Spirit Ability User.

Frightened, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User dared not open his eyes to face it.

But immediately, a mechanical arm reached out and forcibly opened the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s eyelids.

And that Enlightenment Nerve then crawled into the eye socket of the Black Mist Spirit Ability User, penetrating deeply into his brain.

The Black Mist Spirit Ability User instantly fell into a coma.

The instrument beside showed that the Enlightenment Nerve entering the brain of the Black Mist Spirit Ability User was making contact with the Enlightenment Nerve that belonged to the Black Mist Spirit Ability User.

The invading Enlightenment Nerve entwined around the Black Mist Enlightenment Nerve, constricting like a python.

A spiritual energy fluctuation seemingly of ”nothing” type emanated from the Artificial Enlightenment Nerve, enveloping the Black Mist Enlightenment Nerve.

Immediately, the surface of the Artificial Enlightenment Nerve suddenly showed some tiny cracks.

To call them cracks was not quite accurate, as Chen Ming realized when he sensed with his own perception.

The spiritual energy fluctuations in these cracks were all fixed into the sharp, circular shape of a mouthpiece.

These cracks were actually countless mouths of this Artificial Enlightenment Nerve, devouring the Black Mist Enlightenment Nerve bit by bit.

The Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s body suddenly started convulsing.

His Enlightenment Nerve was being consumed, and he was falling into an instinctive frenzy.

Upon detecting unstable Spiritual Power, several mechanical arms immediately rose up, and after reinforcing the restraint on the Black Mist Spirit Ability User, injected some sedatives prepared by Chen Ming into his body.

This placed the Black Mist Spirit Ability User in the simultaneous agony of nerve damage madness and the calm forcibly imposed by the drugs.

This scenario even caused Chen Ming to feel a pang of phantom pain.

If he hadn’t carried a Spiritual Stone and at the last moment used a Mind Pulse to retard the Enlightenment Nerve trying to bore into his brain, his Enlightenment Nerve might have long been devoured.

Of course, if his Enlightenment Nerve had been devoured, Chen Ming might have directly become a Mind Breaking Entity.

However, if Chen Ming had become a Mind Breaking Entity back then, he certainly wouldn’t have the current strength of consciousness to resist that chaos, and might have become a true monster.

Fortunately, there were no ”ifs.”

A few minutes later.

Of the Enlightenment Nerve within the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s brain, only one remained,

The one still connected to the Spirit Awakening Nerve Extractor, the Artificial Enlightenment Nerve.

After confirming no original Enlightenment Nerve remained in the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s brain, the Spirit Awakening Nerve Extractor slowly extracted the Enlightenment Nerve that had entered through the eye socket.

This Artificial Enlightenment Nerve had been dyed pitch black; it was now a still-living Enlightenment Nerve possessing specific abilities.

And just as the Enlightenment Nerve was being extracted.

The Black Mist Spirit Ability User suddenly started to have a nosebleed.

This wasn’t due to damage to the nasal mucosa, but rather damage to his brain.

The Spirit Awakening Nerve Extractor seemed only responsible for extraction, not for the life safety of the subject during the extraction process.

After the extraction experiment ended, it wouldn’t care if the subject lived or died.

If Chen Ming really turned a blind eye, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User would die completely in a few minutes.

Although Chen Ming didn’t care about the death of a Zuo Jing division member, thinking about the countless heinous acts he had witnessed Zuo Jing commit, how painful the death would be didn’t matter as it would only make Chen Ming feel pleased.

But he wondered what it would be like if a spiritual energy user survived after having their Enlightenment Nerve extracted?

So he decided to save him for now.

Through monitoring with spiritual energy, Chen Ming carefully examined the symptoms of the Black Mist Spirit Ability User.

He could basically determine that the battle between the two Enlightenment Nerves in his brain had caused some slight damage.

Under normal circumstances, even this very slight damage in the brain could be healed with the correct medication.

But the Black Mist Spirit Ability User at this time had another condition in his brain.

Mental overload.

After his Enlightenment Nerve was extracted, his body could no longer bear the Spiritual Power it still held.

The solution wasn’t too difficult; find a way to exhaust his Spiritual Power, then apply medication, simple as that.

Chen Ming resolved this issue in just over ten seconds.
