Shangjing was still bustling with people coming and going. Luo Kai casually walked around the city, observing the people and things around him. As time passed, the changes that the astral energy had on humans began to appear. Ordinary people could clearly feel that they were different from before. They were stronger, faster, and clearer in their thinking. Many people were even more sensitive to the energy of heaven and earth and awakened their abilities.
However, other species evolved faster. No matter if it was the beasts or the creatures of the Dark Realm, their strength, speed, and strange attacking methods were far beyond the combat strength of humans.
Since the birth of civilization, humans had been relying on intelligence and were very dependent on external objects. Coupled with their overly comfortable life, they fell far behind other creatures in this great wave of evolution.
Unknowingly, he came in front of a tall building. The tip of his nose smelled the intoxicating fragrance of wine, but Luo Kai no longer had the desire to taste the wine. He sighed and stopped at the corner of the street. He gently closed his eyes and spread out his consciousness. Faint whispers could be heard in his mind, like the whispers of wind or the creaking of a wooden door.
For the omniscient and omnipotent power of the soul, other senses of hearing, sight, touch, and smell were useless. As long as he used his heart to feel, everything in the world would be in his heart.
The whispers in his ears came from the thoughts of others, or rather, the brainwaves. In the past, he could also feel the thoughts of others, but it was not as direct as now. Now, it seemed that as long as he wanted to, he could easily invade people's minds and understand their deepest secrets.
This big city with tens of millions of people produced a siphon effect. The huge brainwaves gathered together and even disturbed the flow of heaven and earth energy. No wonder some wise people in ancient times had to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests. The social life of humans was really a kind of purgatory of the mortal world, and it would seriously affect one's cultivation.
Just as he was lost in thought, a dark figure silently appeared behind him, and a machete quickly slashed towards him.
Luo Kai suddenly opened his eyes and flicked his finger to meet the attack.
"Clang, clang, clang!" He flicked his finger three times, and the machete instantly broke into pieces. The figure took a few steps back, and his eyes were full of shock.
This was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. His skin seemed to be bright, completely blending with the surrounding environment. Moreover, there was no aura leaking out. Even Luo Kai only sensed it at the moment of the sneak attack.
Luo Kai's expression turned cold. He could tell that this person was from the Abyss Race. He had no good impression of dark races like them. Killing intent emerged in his heart as he punched out. Layers upon layers of fist energy pushed forward.
This person's body was extremely slippery. When the fist touched his body, his body seemed to spread out like a ball of sticky liquid, unable to withstand the force.
Luo Kai took a deep breath as his aura continued to rise. The layers of green rings around his body shrank and expanded. With the comprehensive integration of the Dao of Water, he had already touched the edge of Dao Integration. In other words, water was him, and he was water.
The Vast Wave Energy that was created according to the trajectory of the sea had truly reached a perfect state. It could be used to the extreme of hardness or softness at will. When it shrank, it guided the force, turning the enemy's force into his own. When it expanded, it boosted the pushing force, and the force exerted was several times stronger than before. In a moment, the opponent was beaten back.
The middle-aged man was extremely shocked. He had been lurking in the human society for a long time and killed many physical masters, but he had never met such a terrifying human. His strength was not inferior to that of a high-level physical master, but he had no resistance at all. It seemed that there was a problem with the intelligence.
Seeing that he was about to die under the fist, he suddenly shouted loudly. His body exploded into countless balls of water and scattered in all directions.
Luo Kai immediately turned into a wisp of green smoke and chased after him. He stopped at the entrance of a sewer and looked at the pitch-black hole in front of him. After sensing for a moment, he jumped down. The hole was very deep and the bottom was straight. The deeper he went, the more space there was!
Luo Kai's body was filled with black fog, and the darkness quickly reflected everything around him. A large number of dark creatures with the same aura as the middle-aged man were rushing over. He did not expect that there was such a large nest of dark creatures hidden under the capital of Higashimogami Province.
His body turned, and the metal snake wrapped around his waist turned into a green longsword and fell into his hand. The green longsword glowed with sword light, and the sharp sound of it piercing through the air shook the entire underground space.
Waves of shrill screams were heard, and the surrounding dark creatures were all cut in half by the sharp sword light.
The massacre continued. Under the flickering sword light, none of the dark creatures could withstand a single blow. Soon, the surrounding area was filled with strange corpses. These dark creatures were like little people molded from soft mud. After they died, they quickly collapsed into a pile of mud.
These dark creatures were not powerful, but they were almost endless. As the dark creatures died one after another, a trace of baleful aura condensed above his head. It became thicker and thicker, as if it was solid. All kinds of evil thoughts began to attack his consciousness, and the desire to kill once again filled his mind.
An hour passed, and the dark creatures were all slaughtered. The boundless baleful aura slowly formed a blood-red disc, illuminating the entire underground space. His thoughts gradually calmed down.
The underground space was very large, and there were all kinds of forks everywhere. In front of him, there was a space that looked like a tomb. The tomb was not big, only less than fifty or sixty square meters. The first thing he saw was a statue in the center. The statue was carved with fine scales, sharp teeth, and claws. It looked like a lizard standing on two legs, but there was a pair of wings on its back. It was filled with a cold and eerie aura.
The abyssal race member disappeared, and the dark creatures also hid in the deepest part of the underground space. There were many obstacles underground, and his perception was infinitely suppressed. Luo Kai stood there and pondered for a moment. He seemed to have inadvertently passed by a gap in the stone wall, and after he left, he suddenly stabbed the stone wall with his sword.
"Ah … How did you find me!?"
A translucent liquid person slid out of the stone wall. There was a small hole in its chest, and it looked at Luo Kai with fear in its eyes. Its concealment technique that could mimic all things was useless against this human.
Luo Kai expressionlessly attacked again, and instantly crushed it into pieces. With the support of the dark energy, nothing could hide from him. The abyssal race member's concealment technique was useless against him.
The liquid person still did not die, and its scattered body tried to reform again.
The abyssal race's evolution direction was somewhat similar to that of earthworms. They had extremely strong vitality, and they could create an infinite number of clones. It was very difficult to kill them with normal physical means. Luo Kai's thoughts moved, and traces of electric light flashed, surrounding the liquid person. A smell of burnt fur came out.
The liquid person began to carbonize, and green smoke rose. At first, it was incomparably terrified, but it gradually turned into hatred. "The gate of the abyss has been opened, and the end of you humans will soon come!" After saying this, it completely stopped breathing.
Luo Kai frowned, and his heart suddenly throbbed. This was the warning of his mysterious sixth sense again. The abyssal race specialized in dark energy, and the venerated ancient god should be a kind of god that followed the law of dark energy. However, at the level of a god, they should not wantonly kill. They were more likely to enslave and use people.
High-level life forms could not be simply divided into good and evil. It was like humans experimenting with white mice, but they would not ask if the mice were willing to do so. Compared to humans, the ancient gods were of course evil, but from the standpoint of the entire species, how could humans not be evil?
Although the current situation of humans was very difficult, it had not reached the point of doomsday. As long as they were given some time, with the wisdom of humans and the gradually released evolutionary potential, they could definitely rise again. It was just that in the future, it was likely that they would not be as arrogant as before.
