Chapter 747 -639: Still Saying You Haven’t Joined the Star Guild!

The two of them didn’t have to wait long for the action to unfold.

Although Luo Kai had not approached the group of people, he kept a close eye on the progression of events. When the extraction progress reached ninety percent, the surrounding air suddenly felt oppressive!

It was as if a cold wave was rushing towards them; the sky quietly darkened, and the entire roller coaster seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, hazy and indistinct.

The whole amusement park appeared to have hit a pause button. Workers, visitors, even the police and medical personnel who had just arrived, all remained motionless in their previous postures, not even the slight movement of breathing could be heard.

Luo Kai immediately gestured, and the Patterned Han Sword that had disappeared after entering the instance reappeared in his hand, its Ruby at the hilt glimmering brightly.

“This is a level-four Abyss, and with your current spiritual power, it might affect you. It’s best you retract your spiritual power and guard your Spiritual Sense well,” Luo Kai said to the person beside him.

...

He knew that this person’s spiritual power was immense, even capable of spreading across the entire amusement park.

But a quantitative change does not equal a qualitative change. A primary school student working through a thousand addition and subtraction problems still cannot compare with the intellectual pressure brought by a single advanced math problem.

The Abyss attacks directly on the spiritual plane.

Upon hearing this, Xu Shuo did not stubbornly insist that he was fine.

He was very cautious, and without saying another word, he withdrew his spiritual power that was covering the entire Subspace, only encompassing the area around the roller coaster.

Xu Shuo had previously faced a level-four Abyss once before.

That time, even with the Alpha Character Card activated, he had been unable to distinguish reality from illusion, influenced by the visions of an Abyss Demon.

Although he had snapped back to reality at the last moment, the experience was still a close call.

Prior to that, the Abyss events Xu Shuo had encountered truly weren’t that thrilling.

Before being influenced by the Abyss, he would only experience headaches, irritability, and confused thoughts. A little clarity was enough to resist the erosion, which was not as strong as the influence of certain gods.

But in reality, the most impactful pollution and erosion are always silent in their approach, falling into degradation through illusion, and sinking into slumber in the vast unknown.

It could be said that because of that Abyss Demon, he started to take things a bit more seriously.

…

At this moment, the roller coaster was engulfed in a rising storm of mist.

The remaining ten percent of the progress bar represented that very monster.

In a world of stillness, the bushes underneath the roller coaster stirred up another black storm, with a tinge of blood mixed into the darkness. Accompanied by the echo of ghostly wailing, the world was painted in colors of lifelessness and decay.

The girl lying on the ground began to squirm, her body contorting as she stood up.

Her face, covered in blood, was broken and shattered, with plants and stones embedded in her flesh and etched into her eye sockets, making her already dark and hollow eyes particularly terrifying.

“I don’t understand…”

Amidst the harrowing cries, there seemed to be the voice of a girl, vague and distant, filled with anger, resentment, incomprehension, and bewilderment.

Gradually, the voice became more piercing, more hoarse and indistinct, as though something was hysterically roaring, reminiscent of the sneers and shouts of Evil Spirits.

The girl who had risen from the ground was entwined and covered by darkness, twisted and elongated into countless long tentacles within the storm.

In the face of that mournful crying, neither of the two revealed any change in expression.

Luo Kai turned to Xu Shuo and asked, “How are you feeling now?”

Xu Shuo, instead, gave him a strange look: “It’s just the BOSS showing up, what am I supposed to feel?”

Luo Kai was taken aback, “Alright then.”

It was he who had meddled unnecessarily.

However, judging by the other person’s reaction, it really didn’t seem like he was affected by the Abyss at all. It appeared that a level-four Abyss might not be much for him.

For a player who was only level two, to resist a level-four Abyss with sheer spiritual power was rather extraordinary. But if the fact were associated with this person, it didn’t seem all that strange.

Luo Kai mused to himself.

In truth, Xu Shuo, looking at the familiar gigantic octopus creature, furrowed his brow slightly.

It’s not like there could be octopuses everywhere, right?

It can’t be that all level-four Abyss Creatures are octopuses, right?

So, Xu Shuo knew for sure that his vision had been confused again—yet he still didn’t understand why he was afraid of octopuses.

Of course, it might not be fear.

After all, as Los said—what the Abyss erosion presents is anything you find repulsive, fearful, detestable, or hateful.

At this moment, the giant octopus that seemed to occupy both heaven and earth waved its tentacle full of suckers, with countless crimson eyes scrambling within the suckers, emitting a jarring, chattering noise, as it descended towards him!

Xu Shuo’s body tensed reflexively because the danger captured by his spiritual power was real.

But seeing that Luo Kai beside him didn’t make any moves, he focused his consciousness and watched the thundering tentacle falling towards him without moving an inch.

He didn’t ask Luo Kai because he knew that this kind of Abyssal pollution infiltrating deep into his consciousness could only be resolved by himself.

Unless, it was like the last time, when he let Themis’s spiritual power enter his Sea of Consciousness and allowed someone else’s spiritual power to invade his brain.

But that was impossible.

Whoosh—

The tentacle swept past his body, bringing a bone-chilling coldness, and numerous chaotic, piercing voices instantly flooded his brain, this time even more fiercely insane than before!

Xu Shuo’s brain thundered, and in the darkness, he seemed to see countless octopuses dancing before his eyes.

It seemed something was tempting him to give up resistance, drawing him forward.

But his thoughts were still clear, and he was even calm—calm enough to watch these bizarre, irregular, twisted, and strange scenes in the darkness.

“You don’t need to handle this monster. I’ll deal with it—damn!”

Luo Kai’s voice blurred in his ears.

From the unfinished sentence that suddenly changed tune and turned urgently, it was apparent that he had been shocked by something.

In the sky of the roller coaster.

Those massive emerald-green eyes all of a sudden opened wide in the storm and darkness-riddled sky, their crystal-clear pupils radiating light as if containing myriad galaxies, ancient wisdom, and the evolution of civilizations, grand and majestic!

At the instant those eyes gazed upon him, Luo Kai’s expression abruptly went blank.

“The wisdom of the Stars—”

“You are the gate to all truth!”

He muttered these words, then suddenly came back to his senses, covering his mouth as he realized the odd behavior he had just exhibited.

But the words had already been said.

In an instant, the darkness that had enveloped the entire amusement park was swept away, the cold, clear green color descended like the aurora, and the holy light cleansed all the filth.

Luo Kai shakily turned to glance at Xu Shuo, then uncontrollably lifted his head to look up at the sky, towards the pair of green eyes about to vanish.

It was during that instant of looking up that the pair of eyes seemed to give him a look.

Swift—

Luo Kai suddenly felt a chill at the center of his forehead, and he came back to his senses again, closing his eyes tightly and concentrating his spiritual power to guard his Spiritual Sense.

However, when his mind settled down, he found a pair of vague green eyes in his Sea of Consciousness.

Luo Kai: “…”

Damn!

This is the mark of the Star Guild!

And that guy still dare say he didn’t join the Star Guild!

Trickery! Such trickery!
