Luo Kai looked at the corpse of the black-robed man at his feet. This was the third evil cult physique master he had killed in the city. They were all in their twilight years and did not have much combat power, but they were the key to controlling the dark creatures in the city. Every time one of them died, a large number of dark creatures would go out of control and even kill each other.
The dense dark energy in the sky formed a huge dark cloud, shrouding the entire city. The interior of the city became darker and darker, and even the tiniest rays of light were excluded. The evil cult had planned this for a long time. The principle behind this was similar to Luo Kai's experience with the evil energy. The evil energy was violent and disorderly, difficult to be controlled by humans. In contrast, the dark energy was more orderly and could be used by those who wanted to.
Anyone who had lived in this city for a long time would be greatly affected. Based on each person's physique, the first to be unable to withstand the eruption of the dark energy were the elderly and children. Their mind and body were completely deprived, and they became creatures with only genetic instincts left.
He had triggered the eruption of the dark energy in advance. At least one-third of the people in the city had become dark creatures. The newborn dark creatures did not have much combat power. Their eyes were dull and their bodies were stiff. However, with the infusion of the dark energy, their canine teeth began to protrude, their palms grew sharp claws, and their bodies became more and more agile. At the same time, they had a certain level of combat instinct, like wild beasts.
A gray aura rose. It was not dust, but the resentment, anger, and despair of the living before they died …
Luo Kai let out a long sigh. His long hair fluttered in the wind, and the vortex-shaped stars in his eyes rotated quietly. An invisible airflow rapidly gathered around him, causing him to gradually grow taller. He shuttled through the city like he was riding the wind, searching for the whereabouts of the last evil cult physique master.
…
In the central square of the city, there was a huge eagle statue. A man in a black robe stood quietly under the statue. The black fog around him seemed to have substance, and it seeped into the statue.
A moment later, the originally tall statue suddenly began to collapse, and a bottomless crack was revealed. Dense black smoke rose from the crack, and a faint shadow emerged from the smoke. It was a beautiful woman. She had a beautiful face that could topple cities and countries, but her eyes were blood-red. She looked very frightening.
The black-robed man immediately knelt down. "Welcome, Saintess."
The woman's blood-red eyes scanned the city that had fallen into a sea of blood and corpses. She asked coldly, "Why are you the only one left? Why did you activate the Saint Power in advance?"
The black-robed man spoke with a trembling voice: "Everyone else has been killed by a mysterious expert, this subordinate can only ask the Saintess to personally come, otherwise the dead army in the city would have gone out of control"
The woman looked up at the dark energy in the sky, her face cold. "You've wasted too much of your Saint Energy." After saying that, her expression changed and she turned to look at the street in the distance.
A man wielding a saber was slowly walking over. Although he seemed to be moving slowly, every step he took would cross several hundred meters in a flash, leaving a series of afterimages behind him. In the blink of an eye, he was closing in on them.
"Abyss Clan!" A voice filled with murderous intent rang out, followed by a muffled clap of thunder, and a crescent-shaped blade light followed.
The black-robed man only dared to feel his blood begin to boil, his heartbeat quicken, and even the cells in his body begin to vibrate. Shocked, he hurriedly dodged to the side.
The woman smiled coldly, and her body split in the middle, splitting into two identical shadows. Then, she continued to split, and finally turned into nine shadows to meet the blade light.
The indestructible snow-white blade light could not stop these shadows at all. It swept through them and reached them in an instant. Luo Kai's eyes flashed, and an invisible force field was formed out of thin air, blocking these shadows.
He had fought with the Abyss Clan before, and he knew how terrifying these heretics were. Their bodies could almost split infinitely, and they were almost immortal. The only thing that could be countered seemed to be energy attacks, but he did not have any powerful energy attacks at the moment.
No longer hesitating, a slit appeared between his eyebrows, and a sharp sound was heard. A long silver thread-like needle drilled out. It seemed to be a small needle, but the bright silver light it emitted seemed to be able to pierce through the endless darkness of the city.
The silver thread rapidly shuttled between the nine shadows, weaving a space net. No matter how the shadows struggled, they could not break through this space net.
Luo Kai let out a muffled groan, and the spatial net shrank inwards with his will. With the sound of clothes being torn apart, the nine shadows were shattered inch by inch under the powerful spatial power and completely disappeared from the world.
The Abyss Clan's bodies could split infinitely, and they were almost immortal. But, there were always pros and cons. Relatively speaking, they were not tough enough, and in the face of an all-around energy attack, they could not resist.
The black-robed man saw that the Abyss Clan's Saintess was killed without even lasting a round, so how could he have the courage to help? He flashed and fled, instantly disappearing into the night.
Luo Kai wanted to chase after him, but he felt weak all over. His bones and muscles showed signs of going on strike, and even his heart was about to stop beating. The fierce battle for an entire night had consumed too much of his energy. He cursed in his heart, sat cross-legged on the ground, and waved his hand tiredly at the silver thread flying in front of him.
The Severing Blade made a crisp sound, and directly tore open the space in front of him, and disappeared into it. The next moment, it appeared in front of the black-robed man. He looked at the thing that suddenly appeared in front of him in fear, and just as he was about to move, the silver thread had completely covered him.
With the death of the four heretic physique masters, the dark creatures in the city fell into a riot, and they began to bite and devour each other indiscriminately.
Dawn arrived, and a ray of sunlight penetrated the dark clouds in the sky. The dark creatures scattered in the city screamed when they were hit by the sunlight, and the red light in their eyes gradually dimmed. Most of them died quickly, and some of the stronger ones developed an instinct to avoid the light. Some hid in the buildings, and some quickly dug holes under their feet, and hid in the ground to enter a state of hibernation.
Luo Kai stood up and walked to the crack in the square. The crack was bottomless, and there was a faint smell of sulfur. Rich dark energy overflowed from it. It seemed that this crack was the source of the dark energy. As long as the crack existed, this place was no longer suitable for life, and this city had completely become a city of death.
He frowned deeply. The Abyss Clan was behind the heretic cult. Previously, the Sea Clan had started the war, and now the Abyss Clan was secretly supporting the heretic cult. These alien races were originally a branch of the human race, so why were they always targeting the human race?
As he thought about it, he suddenly felt that something was not right. The death of a living being would definitely leave a remnant of evil energy, but he did not feel any resentment after killing the Abyss Clan woman last night.
