"Absolutely cannot let these spirits be polluted by the abyss."
'Updating new mission.'
'Mission: The Gaze from the Abyss.'
'The Dark Side of the Universe, which has been quietly dormant for a long time, struggling to escape from a certain state, has finally found a perfect method this time...'
'When the abyss's shadow appears in the eyes that gaze into the abyss, when the sun is no more, when plants wither, when spirituality is extinguished, when all things fall into the land of depravity, that hand symbolizing the most filth and depravity will personally push open the door to the abyss!'
'Warning, this mission is extremely dangerous. Please choose carefully, Host.'
Tang ignored the System's mission reminder. His spiritual premonition was going wild, and his first thought was that he absolutely couldn't let those spirits merge into the black mist.
His figure suddenly reappeared where he had just vanished, leaving the protection of Euclid's space. The high-level charm belonging to the Death domain in his hand was also instantly crushed.
"There's no time to wait for the Extraordinary individuals of the three major churches to arrive. I must severely injure the vessel of the Dark Side of the Universe before the door to the abyss opens!"
"At least, I must prolong the opening time of the abyss's door."
"Death!"
As the ancient Hermes words were murmured, an invisible power of deathly silence seemed to connect to the underworld, spreading frantically around with the charm as its carrier.
At the same time, the black mist in the distant valley seemed to have noticed the anomaly. The black mist suddenly expanded, eroding the red moon and the entire world at an unimaginable speed.
In just an instant, the black mist that had been far away surged before countless numb spirits.
They tried to pollute the spirits of these dead in advance, before the high-level charm of the Death domain radiated to this area, transforming them through the abyss into monsters, vengeful spirits, and vehicles for the abyss to erode the world.
But Tang wouldn't let it succeed.
"The law stipulates."
The Yesterday Once More charm in Tang's hand had disappeared, replaced by a piece of parchment.
The parchment carried a heavy sense of history, illusory yet real, seemingly filled with segments of history, and possessing an indescribable, lofty feeling.
In Euclid's space, he had borrowed a piece of parchment from his future self, belonging to the Uniqueness 'Trennsohst Brass Book', with corresponding rules written on it.
'Demons are absolutely unclean beings. No life using demonic power should exist in this place.'
'Those who violate this shall be sentenced to death!'
The parchment silently opened, revealing the flowing script inside, like liquid mercury.
Those characters had similarities to all currently used characters, the language first used by intelligent life, the source of all languages.
When it was displayed, an invisible deterrence erupted from the parchment. This imposing, natural, innate power, like the fundamental rules of this world, spread faster than the death charm, faster than the pollution of the abyss's black mist, and in the next moment enveloped the entire valley and its surroundings.
At the same time, chains of iron shot out from Tang's hands. They divided into two, then four, weaving the decrees belonging to the 'Decree Sorcerer', forcibly enhancing the reality of this place where the door to the abyss was about to open!
Affected by the rules of the 'Trennsohst Brass Book' and the decrees of the 'Decree Sorcerer', the black mist, like the embodiment of the abyss, capable of devouring the light of the red moon, instantly became clear and bright, like the most ordinary things without any extraordinary power in the beyonder domain. Even when it passed through those numb and hollow spirits, it didn't cause them any harm.
The next moment, the power of the death charm arrived.
The Death pathway and the Night pathway were interchangeable adjacent pathways, and there were places where their authorities intertwined.
High-level charms of the Death domain could also perform certain functions of the Night pathway.
For example, purifying all these spirits in an instant and sending them to the realms of their respective gods.
Tang watched as the spirits were completely purified by the charm and turned his gaze towards the depths of the valley.
A lady in the distance had already fallen to the ground, her expression changing from the previous hollowness and numbness to ferocious pain. Demonic power was forbidden to appear here, and naturally, the demonic power buried in this demigod's heart also fell within this scope.
"The second flaw of Euclid's space is that if there isn't detailed observation, but only general observation, the deep-seated problems at the spiritual level are difficult to detect."
Tang had seen this demigod but hadn't discovered the problem in Euclid's space.
This was due to his own insufficient Sequence level and the fact that time was too rushed.
If he wanted to deal with high-Sequence Extraordinary individuals of the Visionary pathway, especially something like 0-08, his own Sequence level needed to be raised, and his control over that space also needed to be strengthened.
Of course, these were all things for later.
"And the power of the abyss..."
You gaze into the abyss, and the abyss gazes also into you.
Tang's mind recalled words he often saw in his previous life.
And with his knowledge of mysticism—
"When one tries to understand the abyss, touches the abyss, and attempts to seek something from the abyss, the seeker's inner heart will naturally be eroded by the abyss, because it hides the Dark Side of the Universe that can corrupt even gods."
This pollution was silent and imperceptible, and even demigod-level Extraordinary individuals couldn't detect or resist it when they encountered it.
Probably, this lady had been unknowingly polluted in a series of continuous events while constantly receiving information from the abyss, actively pursuing the Blood Sect, and destroying those bloody rituals.
This led to her being immediately counter-manipulated by the vessel of the Dark Side of the Universe when she tracked down its whereabouts, amplifying her emotions and then killing the demigod of Loen.
This lady couldn't be an ally, and might even become his enemy in the next moment. Tang quickly made a judgment in his heart, and at the same time, countless chains pierced through the distance, carrying the decrees of enhanced reality, wanting to capture that vessel of the Dark Side of the Universe.
But in the next moment, a foul power was transmitted from the distant chains.
"You look quite interesting."
As if inspired, foul words echoed in Tang's mind.
His spiritual intuition was stirred, and a distant scene involuntarily appeared in his mind.
It was a desolate valley, in the depths of dense darkness.
Countless chains pierced through it, and surrounded by the chains in the very center was a middle-aged man wearing a black hood, of medium build, with ordinary looks, yet appearing cold, icy, and unlike a living person.
His eyes seemed to pierce through space, looking directly at Tang's side.
"The power of the Arbiter's Uniqueness," he said in a hoarse voice, each word seeming depraved, dark, twisted, and mad.
The next moment, a little black speck appeared on the corner of the parchment in front of Tang.
