Abyssal Distortion Files

Wei Jing's hands had already lost all sensation. He hadn't expected Li Yang to be so decisive, directly chopping off his entire lower leg!

In contrast, his own hands, one completely severed and the other split in half, were experiencing an exceptionally agonizing sensation!

“Hehehe!”

“This is really… too good!”

A look of madness was revealed in Wei Jing's eyes, and he flung the mask off his face!

Seeing the face that revealed charred bone, Li Yang frowned even more deeply.

Wei Jing grinned, "See this face of mine, Li Yang? Do you still remember… the day you killed Snake?!”

“I was right below at the time, the snake's blood flowing on my face… on my body. That feeling was a thousand times more painful than losing a limb!”

“So now, this little bit of pain is nothing to me!”

“And to be honest, I don't really want to kill you. In fact, quite the opposite. I thank you!”

“After all, if it weren't for you, how would I have the chance to become a Covenant Keeper and obtain this unparalleled power!”

“Killing you is just a task the Sect Master gave me.”

“Before this, I didn't have much hope for you. I knew that our power systems were different paths to the same destination, mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining.”

“We both rely on the crystals in our bodies to release power, and we are both destined to abandon our physical bodies to embrace true evolution!”

“But the difference is that the snake's power grows stronger with devouring, but yours does not. Therefore, the strong become stronger, and the weak become weaker!”

The strong become stronger, and the weak become weaker?

“You're wrong.”

“I'm wrong?”

Wei Jing said with a puzzled smile, "Do you think what I said is wrong?"

“Haha, forget it, I don't need to prove anything to you, because time will tell everything!”

“If you still have the chance!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground beneath their feet suddenly trembled, and a behemoth abruptly emerged from behind Wei Jing!

It was also a huge snake-like monster!

“Let me introduce you, this is the second son of the Ancestral Serpent, the Covenant Serpent King!”

The great snake, called the Covenant Serpent King, lowered its head to look at Li Yang, "He's the one who killed my big brother, a Light Illuminator-level lower-rank human?”

“My three brothers and I call each other the Three Kings, and only we three can stand out from the snakes and be ranked as Weak Light level.”

“I really can't understand why big brother would die in the hands of a little human like you?”

Li Yang used his knife to prop himself up on the ground, his thigh still bleeding continuously.

A Weak Light-level Serpent King, also a son of the Ancestral Serpent, plus Wei Jing. He didn't have the slightest chance of winning if they fought now.

Seeing Li Yang's expression as if facing a formidable enemy, Wei Jing smiled, "Li Yang, don't say I'm not playing fair. I know that I just became a Covenant Keeper and have no rank, so my hard power must not be your opponent."

“So I have to ask the Serpent King for help!”

The Covenant Serpent King sneered, "Why waste words with him? I'll avenge my big brother first. When I take his crystal and offer it to the Ancestral Serpent, this matter will be considered a great achievement for you!"

As he said that, the Covenant Serpent King directly opened his bloody mouth and bit at Li Yang!

Li Yang suddenly raised his right hand, and an electric arc appeared out of nowhere, fixing the Covenant Serpent King's head in the air!

“This is?”

Li Yang looked at his right hand in a daze. Strange, he clearly didn't activate his ability, so what was going on?

«An earthworm, eating dust above and drinking from the Yellow Springs below»

«Having gained some good fortune and calling oneself a snake, yet also dreaming of transforming into a dragon and ascending to the heavens, truly laughable»

A hollow voice came from behind Li Yang, and a metallic construct made entirely of white-gold armor, wearing a robe, and holding a scepter walked out.

“Sect Master?”

The Ancient Pioneer walked step by step to Li Yang's side and stretched out a hand to pat him on the shoulder, "In the realm of the mystic, all battles are built on the same foundation."

“That is, the Sect Master behind you.”

“Even if he has a few fierce generals, we also have millions of mighty soldiers.”

As soon as the Ancient Pioneer finished speaking, a large number of metal puppets began to walk out one after another.

The Covenant Serpent King's pupils shrank when he saw this scene, "You… you actually left the Lost City?”

The Ancient Pioneer raised his head, "You are getting too close."

After saying that, the Ancient Pioneer directly activated his ability and transformed into an invisible hand, then grabbed the core inside the Covenant Serpent King!

“Stop, stop!”

The Covenant Serpent King, unable to move, roared weakly, but the Ancient Pioneer ignored him, "Insects should obediently crawl back underground."

Poof!

As soon as he finished speaking, the crystal inside the Covenant Serpent King was grabbed out by the Ancient Pioneer!

Bang!

The huge snake carcass fell to the ground. Seeing this scene, Wei Jing slowly began to retreat, "Sect Master, Li Yang's Sect Master has personally come forward, what about you?”

«Fool!»

«I am at a critical moment of molting and cannot leave Spiral City. How dare you bring my son to provoke us!»

Wei Jing shrugged, "That's not my business. It was the task you gave me. I'm just acting on orders."

“So since you can't be there, don't blame me for retreating without a fight?”

Without waiting for the Ancestral Serpent to speak, Wei Jing directly retreated and merged into the ground, disappearing in this way.

“Sect Master…”

Li Yang spoke, but the Ancient Pioneer shook his head, "With my ability, I can't keep him. Although he has a crystal in his body, he has not devoured metal."

“Unless there is atomic-level metal manipulation ability, in that case, we can directly affect the trace metal elements in the human body.”

Atomic level?

“Metal domination ability comes from our crystals, which are also our brains. Different crystals have different computing power.”

“The more powerful the crystal, the stronger the computing power. And with our crystal level, we are far from reaching the atomic level.”

“Only the Aether Crystal can reach atomic-level computing power, but to control the Aether Crystal, one must reach the fourth-order Deep Sea level.”

Li Yang said, "In other words, if you can reach the Deep Sea level and have an Aether Crystal, you can freely control the trace metal elements in the human body?”

The Ancient Pioneer nodded, "That's right."

“No matter what kind of mystic power, once it reaches that level, killing people is as simple as breathing.”

“This is why I said that our King must reach the Deep Sea level, and all mystic powers will submit to the Immortal King.”

The Ancient Pioneer held the crystal grabbed from the Covenant Serpent King, "This thing will be of great help to you. After absorbing this crystal, your crystal will become more powerful."

“In addition, your leg…”

Li Yang looked at his severed leg, "Pioneer… I know, let's begin."

«Are you really ready?»

“Do I have any other choice?”

«No»

“Then let's begin.”
