NOVEL WEB Chapter 331: The Dark Zone Opens!
On the other side.
"Venerable, the meeting has ended, please rest well,"
Jin Sanyuan said to Su Qi with a sycophantic smile.
"After all, you must attend the Star Meeting tomorrow, representing the Hidden Killing Association."
Su Qi nodded slightly, "You may go."
Jin Sanyuan: "Yes, Venerable, I take my leave."
Su Qi returned to his room and, after confirming that there was no other surveillance, slowly removed his mask.
"Xiao Meng."
"Master, I am here."
Xiao Meng had just rebooted from a crash.
In order not to reveal any flaws at that meeting, Su Qi had completely shut down the Super Dream Protocol, concealing everything about himself that could be exposed, including the curse on his body, the blue mark on his palm, the patterns on his arms, and the Ancient Relic on his brow.
Well.
It seemed like quite a lot.
However.
Su Qi had concealed them all with "Silence of All Things," which could affect others, so it surely could be used on himself as well.
Add to that the fact that he did not resist them, he could silence all these traits, covering them with the power of the Spiritual Eyes.
As long as the other party did not specifically look for them, there would be no flaws revealed.
In fact.
The Undying Priest had indeed not noticed him.
But.
Su Qi narrowed his eyes: "The one behind it..."
The chill at that moment, the feeling of being watched, although fleeting, could very well have been an illusion created by a high-pressure environment.
However, Su Qi did not believe in illusions.
He was certain the other party had noticed him.
"Youhai Spirit King..."
Su Qi murmured.
This was a super figure in the Present World, one of the Seven Spirit Kings, with whom Su Qi likely had some unresolved issues.
During the event in Night City, Su Qi had sabotaged Young Master Youhai's plans, almost killing him and, like a chain reaction, seemed to interfere with the Youhai Spirit King's arrangements.
But.
How had the other party noticed him, and after noticing him, did they see through his identity?
If they saw through him, why didn't they reveal it?
These series of questions made Su Qi's thoughts run rampant, and he was not particularly surprised about the close ties between the Youhai Spirit King and the Abyss Church.
After all.
From previous actions, it was clear that the Youhai Spirit King's movements were aligned with the goals of the Abyss Church, which was to break the balance.
Moreover... the other party was also a member of the highest echelon of the Abyss Church, just like the Undying Priest.
"Youhai Spirit King..."
Su Qi squinted his eyes, planning his next moves in his heart.
After all.
He had been part of their meeting, gaining insight into the vast outline of this Dark Zone.
The Dark Zone was a massive grindstone, where countless lower beings of the world were situated, all ground into blood mist to complete the grand ritual.
At that time.
The Evil God would descend, numerous Ancient Worlds would recover, and the day of Recovery would be the day of Limit Breaking.
The Present World would undergo tremendous changes!
Su Qi's eyes began to throb slightly.
-----------------
At this moment.
Many light-years away from the Land of Extreme Evil.
The Undying Priest of the Abyss Church and the Youhai Spirit King, who stood with his hands behind his back, were slowly sitting at an old stone table.
"Is everything arranged now?" the Youhai Spirit King asked with a light smile, sipping tea.
"Naturally," the gaunt-faced Undying Priest, pale and terrifying, but with an abundance of blood running through his body, surrounded by countless corpses turned into mummies.
All their blood had been drained by him.
Since waking up, he had been using all kinds of methods to recover his strength, and naturally, the resources of the Abyss Church were vast.
In just half a year, he had recovered to the Sequence three, a speed that surpassed countless others from ancient times who had awakened.
The cost was huge, however, as he was now like the living dead. If not for his Bloodline traits, he probably would have shattered his sequence path due to the rapid recovery of his strength.
The Undying Priest also picked up his wine glass, which contained not the same tea as the Youhai Spirit King, but... crimson blood.
"This time, we shall declare to all dimensions... the Abyss Church has returned!"
Boundless terror was about to overturn everything!
The Youhai Spirit King smiled calmly, raising his cup: "Then let me congratulate you in advance."
The Undying Priest did not respond, merely sipping the blood gently.
The Youhai Spirit King did not mind and smilingly downed his cup: "Then, Priest, I shall make my preparations."
"Go ahead," said the Priest calmly.
The Youhai Spirit King vanished into the Ripples, still on this planet, though he had entered a special space within his sequence: Dark Sea, where he could see destiny.
"Youhai Spirit King..."
The Undying Priest watched the ripples where the Youhai Spirit King had disappeared and his mouth curled into a cold smile.
"What kind of secrets do you still have?"
The Abyss Church and the Youhai Spirit King were in a partnership, as the only awakened Priest of the Abyss Church now was him.
Others had yet to return.
Of course, this power was already considerable, with numerous forces quietly becoming part of the Abyss Church.
And the Youhai Spirit King had already established a close connection with the Abyss Church beforehand.
But it... still couldn't see through that person.
Do not underestimate the Spirit Kings.
They had become the topmost existences in the Present World, proving each one to be a super being amongst billions.
And the only thing limiting them... was the rule of the broken sequence of the Present World. Once recovered, the Path of Series could be reconnected.
