Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 341: Chapter 130: Pitch-dark World!_1

Just as the Ancient Demon spawn tensed its arm, preparing to unleash a Dimension Reduction Attack on the Faceless, a black circle abruptly materialized beneath the feet of both the Faceless and the Ancient Demon spawn!

Before the Ancient Demon spawn could strike the Faceless, a violent gravitational force erupted from the circle at their feet!

Given the Ancient Demon spawn’s outstanding physical condition at Peak Level 5, it naturally wouldn’t be disturbed by mere gravity. However...

This black circle was not meant to throw off the Ancient Demon spawn’s movement!

As if the black circle was linked to an unknown space, the moment the Faceless sensed the gravity within, it made no unnecessary movements. Instead, aligning itself with the pull, it plunged downwards!

In an instant, the Faceless vanished. Then, another circle abruptly appeared less than a hundred meters away.

The Faceless emerged from it, staring emotionlessly at the Ancient Demon spawn, only to...

Then, its entire body burst apart, and infinite darkness once again swallowed the surrounding space!

DOUBLE DARKNESS!!!

The Faceless lacked Dragon Blood Amplification, so the darkness it emitted was significantly smaller than Wen Yu’s.

However, the Dragon’s Aura Field on the Faceless had thoroughly melded with the darkness. As long as the Ancient Demon spawn remained within range of the Pitch-dark Light Curtain created by the Faceless, it would be suppressed by the Dragon’s Aura Field!

Meanwhile, a glimmer of Black Light flashed, and another Pitch-dark Absorption was cast upon the Ancient Demon spawn.

Then, darkness surged! Strange, GRINDING sounds echoed from all directions!

The Ancient Demon spawn quietly perceived the surrounding space and the rate at which its stamina was draining. After a while, it finally spoke, its tone heavy.

”What a hassle... I didn’t expect this kind of ability, similar to a domain. What do you call it?”

After a long silence within the endless darkness, a voice as resounding as thunder finally echoed from all directions.

”I haven’t named it, but since you asked, I’ll just make one up for now... Let’s call it Pitch-dark World. What do you think?”

The Ancient Demon spawn seemed to ponder the name carefully for a moment, then nodded.

”Not bad, quite descriptive. Alright, I have to admit, I’ve been outdone this time. So, well...”

”Goodbye!”

The moment the Ancient Demon spawn finished speaking, it quickly activated its Teleportation ability, making three successive teleports in one direction...

It was trying to escape!

The situation was clear: despite the Ancient Demon spawn’s nearly perfect abilities, it couldn’t locate Wen Yu in the endless darkness, let alone attack!

In addition to the various curses, every second the Ancient Demon spawn remained here, a significant portion of its stamina and life force was drained.

When you can’t win, you run – that’s the most sensible choice!

But, when the three teleports were over, the Ancient Demon spawn found itself still within the bounds of the darkness!

”Blocking perception...” the Ancient Demon spawn muttered gloomily.

In response, countless indistinct sounds arose from all directions!

At this moment, Wen Yu was hovering at the apex of the semi-spherical Pitch-dark Light Curtain, with the Faceless standing calmly by his side.

Looking at the Ancient Demon spawn, who had tried three times to teleport away without successfully changing its location, a hint of mockery gleamed in Wen Yu’s eyes.

Blocking perception is quite common among darkness-type abilities. This guy can’t seriously think I don’t know how to use it, can he?

Unfortunately, there was no audience for Wen Yu’s rather boastful muttering.

But Wen Yu wasn’t bothered by that; at this point, he was treating the Ancient Demon spawn as a test subject, continuously refining his ’Pitch-dark World’ ability.

The basic principle of the ability was simple: with Dragon Blood Amplification, his physical condition and abilities would be significantly enhanced, allowing him to create a massive ”domain” using Pitch-dark Divine Light! And in this space, Wen Yu was akin to the Creator God!

Although Dragon Blood Amplification constantly burned his blood, Wen Yu possessed the Blood and Flesh Badge. Even if all his blood were to burn away, it wouldn’t harm him in the slightest.

Moreover, the SSS-Class Dragon Blood Amplification didn’t burn his blood that quickly.

In the first stage of Pitch-dark World, I use Pitch-dark Divine Light to create a vast region of darkness. Then, through dislimning, I completely immerse myself in the darkness. Due to the inclusive nature of Pitch-dark Divine Light, and because they are both Soul Beast abilities, fusing these two skills was just barely achievable.

Wen Yu had already experimented with dislimning when activating Pitch-dark World and confirmed its effectiveness. The Faceless’s body exploding moments ago was precisely the result of combining dislimning with the activation of Pitch-dark World.

The synergistic effect of these two abilities meant Wen Yu was omnipresent within the Pitch-dark World—the entire Pitch-dark World *was* Wen Yu!

However, the stamina consumption was enormous. Fortunately, Pitch-dark Absorption, boosted by Dragon Blood Amplification, along with the omnipresent absorption and corrosive effects within the Pitch-dark World, kept Wen Yu’s stamina plentiful. It was conceivable that the more creatures within the Pitch-dark World, the more replenishment Wen Yu would receive.

The first stage of Pitch-dark World is a process of trapping and weakening the enemy!

And as for the Second Stage of Pitch-dark World...

Wen Yu glanced at the surging darkness below and then at the Ancient Demon spawn, which stood in place, seemingly deep in thought. He snapped his fingers lightly.

The Ancient Demon spawn was currently pondering a way to defeat its enemy while meticulously trying to pinpoint Wen Yu’s location.

Unfortunately, it found nothing.

The dense, unsettling sounds before it drew nearer, yet the Ancient Demon spawn could see nothing, making it increasingly anxious.

Finally, the source of the sounds entered the Ancient Demon spawn’s line of sight.

It was a bizarre creature, merely half a meter long, with a disproportionately large head and short, stubby limbs that made the Ancient Demon spawn doubt it could even move. Its round head was dominated by a single, grotesque maw which, instead of teeth or similar structures, housed a continuously spinning black vortex.

The bizarre creature slowly advanced towards the Ancient Demon spawn, followed by a second, then a third... an unending stream of them!

Meanwhile, Wen Yu, observing from above the Pitch-dark World, was casually narrating the events.

”The Second Stage of Pitch-dark World: darkness beasts... They are elemental life forms composed entirely of Pitch-dark Divine Light. Their movement is exceedingly slow, but their attacks are incredibly brutal. And their numbers...”

Wen Yu shook his head, silently mourning the Ancient Demon spawn for a few seconds.

Then, he ordered the darkness beasts to pounce directly at the Ancient Demon spawn!
