Evolving infinitely from ground zero

Only the crisp sound of something shattering could be heard.

The pitch-black bead in Ye Yongsheng's hand instantly broke into a pile of powder, slipping through the cracks of his claws and drifting away with the wind.

With the bead shattered, the will ceased to drain away.

But what drove Ye Yongsheng to despair was that his current state showed no signs of improvement, and he still felt as though his flesh was being possessed by an external life form.

"What's going on?!"

"What on Earth is happening?!"

"Who is trying to possess me?!"

Ye Yongsheng's face was filled with terror, his eyes brimming with despair.

Just a short while ago, he had been attempting to possess Lin Zichen's body, and in the blink of an eye, the tables had turned, and he was the one being possessed by an unknown life form, which he found hard to accept.

"I didn't expect to awaken within the body of a traitor from Earth like you..."

Suddenly, a sinister voice echoed deep within Ye Yongsheng's mind.

The moment he heard the voice, Ye Yongsheng's eyes widened in disbelief.

It was the voice of the Night King!

It was the Night King trying to possess my body!

Why!

The Night King is a highly esteemed, Mythical Level Expert who looks down upon the world. Why would he want to possess my body?

Wait!

Could it be that the Mythical Level Expert who perished in the Central Region was the Night King?!

In that instant, Ye Yongsheng realized everything.

The Night King had fallen in a Mythical Level battle in the Central Region, and he, having recently merged a drop of the Night King's Essence Blood, had inadvertently become the vessel for the Night King's revival.

"Great Night King!"

"I am but a lowly Legendary Level insect!"

"This body is made of the vile flesh and blood of humans!"

"My body is truly unworthy of serving as the vessel for your will, it would tarnish your exalted status!"

"Lin Zichen was just here, he hasn't gone far, and as you know, his body is exceedingly special. Only his body is worthy of your will!"

Ye Yongsheng's voice was filled with the desire to live.

He did not want his life to end this way.

He desired to evolve into a Mythical Level Creature.

To gain an endless lifespan.

To ensure no being could ever threaten his life again.

To forever exist in this world.

To live high above the rest.

In response to Ye Yongsheng's plea, which bordered on the abject, the Night King inside him, rapidly reviving, felt no stir of emotion.

After a long while, the Night King finally spoke, devoid of emotion,"You're right, your body is indeed unworthy of bearing my will."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yongsheng was overjoyed, the look of despair on his face swept away in an instant.

But before he could revel in his relief, the Night King inside him spoke again,"However, before possessing Lin Zichen's body, I will need to make use of your despicable flesh."

The moment those words were spoken, the reviving Night King suddenly burst forth with spiritual power.

Before Ye Yongsheng could react, his will was completely erased in an instant, and the Night King wholly took over his body.

"Such a decrepit body..."

The Night King, having completely possessed Ye Yongsheng's body, felt disdain for his new form, which barely reached the first tier of Mythical Level and would soon degrade to Legendary Level.

After briefly adjusting to the new body,

swiftly,

the Night King sent out a ripple of spiritual power at the mere thought.

The expanse was vast.

It almost covered the entire Southern Domain.

This was the might of a Mythical Level Creature.

"You flee quite swiftly..."

"Merely an instant, and you've flown hundreds of miles..."

"Yet, it's still too slow for me..."

The Night King looked in the direction of Lin Zichen, as though observing an ant, with a sneer of superiority plastered on his face.

Just like Ye Yongsheng, he considered all beings below Mythical Level to be insignificant.

"It's too bright..."

"Better if it's darker..."

The Night King gazed up at the bright sky and then snapped his fingers with a crisp sound.

The moment the snap echoed, the once clear skies turned gloomy in an instant.

Great swathes of the Southern Domain were plunged into silent darkness.

This was the Night King's unique ability: Great Dark Sky.

...

Hundreds of miles away, up in the sky,

Lin Zichen was frantically unleashing his Qi-Blood and spirit at high speed, rushing towards Fortress No. 1 to escape this perilous place with Shen Qinghan from the city.

HIs adversary was no longer the previous Ye Yongsheng, whose Biological Level was at Legendary Level,

but had become a Mythical Level Expert from the Southern Domain—the Night King.

Lin Zichen was fully aware of his limitations, knowing that no matter how skilled at overcoming levels he was, there was no way he could defeat such a Mythical Level Expert.

```

Therefore, he decisively chose to flee, without hesitating for a moment.

"Hmm?"

"What happened?"

"Why has it gotten dark?"

Lin Zichen was flying at high speed when suddenly the entire sky darkened.

His senses were greatly suppressed.

His range of perception shrank and shrank again.

"Szzzt——!"

Suddenly, a powerful tearing sound emanated from ahead.

Hearing the sound, Lin Zichen immediately looked toward its source.

What came into his view was a huge rift with electric arcs flowing through it.

The moment he saw the rift, his entire demeanor became solemn, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.

He was well aware of what a sudden rift tearing open in the sky signified.

It meant that a powerful being was breaking through the void.

Given the current situation and location, other than the Night King, who had possessed Ye Yongsheng to resurrect himself, there would not be a second expert capable of breaking through the void.

Therefore, the powerful being breaking through the void at this moment, was certainly the Night King without a doubt.

Thinking this, Lin Zichen didn't hesitate at all and swiftly dived towards the sea below.

When facing a mythical level expert, especially one known as the king of the skies like the Night King, traveling by land or air would mean certain death.

The only route with a chance of escape was the water route below.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a deafening splash.

Lin Zichen turned into a red streak of light and instantly plunged into the sea below, splashing up large waves of red flames.

The moment he entered the sea, Lin Zichen activated his biometric attribute "Blessing of Melting Water", completely merging with the seawater and sinking at the highest speed towards the unfathomable depths.

Despite his proficiency in water, he had no confidence in outswimming the Night King.

The difference in their biological levels was too vast to be compensated for by mere "proficiency".

Above the sea level.

The Night King slowly emerged from the rift, his expression calm and unhurried.

"He even knew to sink rapidly to the sea bottom..."

"I must say, quite intelligent..."

"Pity, the disparity in strength is too vast, no matter how clever, it's all in vain..."

The Night King looked at the sea surface where ripples continued to spread, chuckled, then waved his hand and tore open a huge rift beside him.

Then, with a calm face, he stepped into the depths of the rift.

...

In the depths of the sea.

With the enhancement of various water-based biometric attributes like "Blessing of Melting Water", Lin Zichen dove tens of thousands of meters in an instant, quickly leaving the sea surface far behind.

Just when he thought that diving so deep could possibly hide him from the Night King's pursuit—

"Szzzt——!"

He heard that familiar sound again.

Lin Zichen couldn't win.

He was killed in an instant.

Reborn in flames.

The Night King saw the profoundness and was somewhat shocked, then Great Dark Sky, extinguishing the fire.

Lin Zichen fled into the depths of the sea.

In the depths of the sea, Lin Zichen saw a fragment of the Palace of the Water God.

What's going on?

Wasn't the Palace of the Water God in Han Han's Sea of Consciousness?

On the other side.

Shen Qinghan was also startled.

She actually saw Lin Zichen in her own Sea of Consciousness.

Lin Zichen couldn't win.
