The voice ringing in my heart is like the strongest lock on my safety.
Lin You, now observing his surroundings with a playful mindset, said, "It's truly amazing! This darkness looks just like those common dark games. It doesn't have any special texture, but it's inexplicably impenetrable. It's difficult to penetrate even a little perception. It's so mysteriously constructed that even an ordinary cat or dog would be hard to detect."
If a place like this were used as a training ground for perception, it might be surprisingly good?
"Coolie~"
The little guy is still trying hard to sense.
He had also experienced several dark games, and these dark game experiences all had one common feature -
Edible!
Yes, this is the biggest impression of the dark game left in the little guy's mind.
Every time I find the dark core, I can have a satisfying meal.
Sometimes he even chokes on his food!
Although the little guy's appetite is no longer what it used to be, the depth and breadth of the darkness before him is also unprecedented.
If there is a chance to see through the cracks in the darkness, break through the obstacles outside the core, and face the core directly.
Then the little guy is confident that no matter how hard the core is, he can bite it!
However, judging from the current situation, it is unrealistic for the little guy to find the flaws in this darkness.
Lin You was not in a hurry. He walked leisurely, looking around from time to time.
The Super Magic Dragon Knight followed his instructions and did not follow, but waited quietly in the same place.
step.
Two steps.
A dozen steps.
Lin walked very slowly, and the surroundings were extremely quiet, so even when he stepped on the dark ground with a texture of smoke, there was still a slight sound of footsteps.
Just as he took a few more steps, the outline of a figure vaguely emerged from the depths of the darkness.
"Hehehe, you're still as nonchalant as ever. How are you, Lin You?"
The voice that sounded at this time was hoarse and cold.
Lin You had only heard this voice once, but when he heard it again, it was like a bucket of ice water poured on his head on a hot summer day, instantly stimulating his dusty memories.
Yes, that guy.
There will be no mistake!
Mayixiu!
Lin You couldn't help but feel excited.
When he first met the other party, Lin You had never heard of this name and knew nothing about him.
But now, my understanding of him is much clearer.
The biggest boss behind the dark world!
An existence that is valued by the Duelist Headquarters.
This kind of enemy is overwhelmingly powerful even for Lin You today.
At the beginning, Ma Yixiu only relied on a shell as a carrier to bring down part of the power, which was even insignificant.
Although the current Ma Yixiu still cannot reflect all of his strength, judging from the power displayed in this dark space, this may have already reflected his strength to a great extent.
Quickly suppressing his inner excitement, Lin You chuckled and said, "Ma Yixiu, you're always so unreliable every time you make an appearance. Are you afraid that someone will reveal your true identity?"
Deep in the darkness, the outline of a figure became clearer. A voice drifted closer, "Your memory is pretty good. Did you recognize me already? Or perhaps the words I left you before have been keeping you on edge, and that's why you've been so trembling with fear until today. If that's the case, I have to apologize. Hehehehe."
Lin You smiled and said, "Your words really left a deep impression on me. I have always had a regret about this."
"Tell me about it."
Ma Yixiu's figure walked out of the darkness, with messy long hair and purple pupils that seemed to be able to captivate souls.
"You slipped away too quickly last time, so I couldn't leave you a word. You said you were determined to get my soul, but I want to tell you what your soul tastes like. One day I will come and taste it." Lin You said leisurely.
Ma Yixiu laughed, seemingly finding the words amusing. But the next moment, a distinct chill permeated his smile. "Lin You, you seem a little too proud of yourself. Get one thing straight: in front of me, Ma Yixiu, you're nothing more than an ant that can be crushed to death with a single step. At that moment, it all depended on my thoughts."
As he spoke, he raised a foot playfully, "Do you want me to crush you to death right now? Looking at your current state, I understand that despair can actually give people a different kind of courage. Even though it's just an illusion, this illusion... is disgusting!"
By the end of the conversation, a chill seemed to seep into every word, and the entire environment became depressing.
Lin You smiled and said, "Then what kind of scene are you looking forward to seeing? Me crying and begging for mercy, or me paralyzed by fear? Or something more imaginative?"
After imagining for a moment, he spread his hands and said, "Never mind. Imagination is just imagination after all. Only children like to indulge in unfounded fantasies. Ma Yixiu, are you still just a little kid who can't grow up? If so, I have to be more careful when talking to you. If I speak too harshly, I'm afraid you'll cry and ruin your mood. If you're in such a bad mood, how can you still hold on in this darkness?"
At this point, Lin You said nervously, "That's going to be troublesome. I'm counting on the soul core of this dark space to feast on it. Just be open-minded. Although life may not be what you wish, through such trials, you will gradually learn to be strong."
The smile on Ma Yixiu's face suddenly faded, and he looked at Lin You with some pity, "Pretending to be crazy and stupid is not your way out, and this thing is not interesting at all."
The next moment, his facial expression suddenly became ferocious and terrifying.
"Just wake up from this idiotic dream!"
The darkness around him surged with Ma Yixiu's voice, covering Lin You like a huge wave of water.
"It really has been infiltrated... The Ancient Land of Spiritual Warfare."
A cold voice sounded, and a pure white halo suddenly emerged from Lin You.
The halo quickly turned into an eggshell-shaped pure white light shield.
The darkness came with great force and suddenly hit the light shield, but the light shield did not move at all.
Not only that, an astonishing scene took place.
The darkness seemed to be glued to the surface of the light shield, unable to be removed, and then, it melted in large flakes like snow.
The thick darkness vanished in just a moment.
“?!”
Ma Yixiu's expression changed drastically. He stared at the pure white light shield, as if he could sense the immense power hidden behind the seemingly plain light shield.
"Original energy..."
Ma Yixiu gritted his teeth and said this, then suddenly turned into a dark ray and tried to escape on the spot.
But at this moment, the eggshell-like pure white light shield suddenly flashed, releasing a dazzling pure white light.
In the light, it seemed as if an invisible chain was hidden, falling on Ma Yixiu.
Half of Ma Yixiu's body disappeared, as if he was tied up, and suddenly returned to his original form.
Not only that, large areas of darkness suddenly emerged from the body surface.
The invisible chain seemed to have turned into a vacuum cleaner with extremely strong suction power, directly aimed at Ma Yixiu and began to absorb it crazily.
The darkness within him began to dissipate at an alarming speed.
"Asshole!"
A rare look of fear appeared in Ma Yixiu's pupils.
When he looked at Lin You again, he suddenly said angrily: "Who are you? How dare you inject the original energy into him..."
What’s more important is...it has been injected to this extent!
"Is this important?"
A voice emanated from Lin You's body. "There's no need to feign distress. I know this is just a portion of your dispersed strength, but being able to cleverly circumvent the rules of the Ancient Spirit War Land in this way is a success on your part. However..."
Jiang Yuan said coldly, "You underestimated China's determination. The sins committed in Bird City are destined to be repaid with blood. This is just the beginning. No matter how cleverly you think you hide, China will find you, lock you down, and kill you..."
"You have nowhere to escape!"
White light was released again on the eggshell.
This time, it was even stronger.
“Ugh—!!”
Ma Yixiu suddenly let out a heart-wrenching roar, and the darkness on his body poured out like a backflowing river.
In this darkness, many solidified black particles can be seen.
And those dark, solid particles are gradually disintegrating.
Lin You looked at this scene with some surprise. These solid black particles didn't seem to be simply dark source power. If he guessed correctly...
"That is Ma Yixiu's original energy."
Jiang Yuan seemed to have read Lin You's thoughts and said directly, "Original energy is essentially the further sublimation of super-source power. When a duelist's super-source power reaches a certain level, it will gradually give rise to a part of the original source. This part of energy is usually only consumed, not disappeared."
Lin You immediately understood the hidden meaning behind this, "That is to say, under certain circumstances, the original energy will actually be reduced?"
Once used, it no longer belongs to the duelist.
Jiang Yuan nodded, "So you know why Maixiu is in so much pain?"
Lin You laughed instantly, but looking at Ma Yixiu's distorted face, he suddenly encouraged her, "Ma Yixiu, it's no big deal. It's just a loss of some source energy. I thought you were completely dead this time. I was going to observe a moment of silence for you, as a token of my mercy. But you've really disappointed me. Why bother pretending to be miserable if you can't just die cleanly?"
Ma Yixiu's expression was distorted, and he didn't know whether he heard it or not. He couldn't say a word at this moment.
The darkness in my body is still flowing madly.
After watching for a while, Lin You couldn't help but sigh, "Senior Jiang, your move is too powerful. You can actually drain all the energy from Ma Yixiu's body like this. Is this something that the original energy can do?"
Logically speaking, since the original energy is the sublimated version of the super source power, the direction of sublimation should be focused on destruction and healing.
But what about this detachment method?
Jiang Yuan quickly gave the answer, "Because it is mixed with the power of the spirits, and it is related to the soul itself."
