"Absolutely cannot let these spirits be corrupted by the Abyss."
[Updating new mission.]
[Mission: Gaze from the Abyss.]
[The Dark Side of the Universe, desperately trying to escape from a certain state, has been quietly dormant for a long time. This time, He has finally found a perfect method...]
[When the eyes gazing into the abyss also show the shadow of the abyss, when the sun is no more, when plants wither, when spirituality becomes extinct, when all things fall into the land of corruption, that hand symbolizing the most filthy and depraved existence will personally push open the doorway of the Abyss!]
[Warning: This mission is extremely dangerous. Proceed with caution, Host.]
Don paid no attention to the system's mission reminder. His spiritual intuition was wildly pulsing, and his first thought was that he absolutely could not allow those spirits to merge with the black fog.
His figure suddenly appeared at the place where he had just vanished, leaving the protection of the Euclidean space. The high-level charm belonging to the Death domain in his hand was also instantly crushed.
"There's no time to wait for Beyonders from the three major churches to arrive. I must severely wound the Dark Side of the Universe's divine descent before the doorway of the Abyss fully open!"
"At the very least, I must delay the opening of the Abyss Doorway."
"Death!"
With the low chanting in ancient Hermes, the invisible power of death silence seemed to connect with the underworld, using the charm as a medium to wildly dissipate in all directions.
At the same time, the black fog in that distant valley seemed to sense the anomaly. The black fog suddenly expanded, eroding the crimson moon at an unimaginable speed, eroding the entire world.
In just an instant, the black fog that had been far away surged before the countless numb spirits.
They tried to corrupt the souls of these dead before the high-level charm of the Death domain could radiate to this area, making them suffer the transformation of the Abyss, turning them into monsters, into vengeful spirits, into vessels for the Abyss to erode the world.
But Don would not let it succeed.
"The Law Decrees;."
The Yesterday Once More charm in Don's hand had already disappeared, replaced by a piece of parchment.
That parchment carried a heavy historical aura, illusory yet real, seemingly filled with countless histories, and possessing an indescribable, lofty feeling.
In the Euclidean space, he had borrowed from his future self a piece of parchment belonging to the Uniqueness 'Trunsoest Brass Book' with corresponding rules written on it.
[Devils are absolutely impure creatures. No life using devilish power should exist in this place.]
[Violators shall be sentenced to death!]
The parchment silently opened, revealing the mercury-like flowing text inside.
Those characters bore similarities to all currently used scripts—they were the primordial language used by intelligent life, the source of all languages.
When it was revealed, invisible deterrent force burst forth from the parchment. This naturally majestic, inherent power, like the fundamental rules of this world, spread faster than the death charm, faster than the corruption of the Abyss's black fog, and in the next moment enveloped the entire valley and its surroundings.
At the same time, chains shot out from Don's hands. They split from one into two, from two into four, weaving the decree belonging to the 'Law Mage', forcibly strengthening the reality of this place where the Abyss doorway were about to open!
Under the rules of the 'Trunsoest Brass Book' and the decree of the 'Law Mage', the black fog that was like the embodiment of the Abyss, capable of devouring the light of the crimson moon, immediately became clear and bright, like the most ordinary thing without any beyonder power from supernatural domains. Even when it passed through those numb and hollow spirits, it caused them no harm.
In the next moment, the power of the death charm arrived.
The Death pathway and the Darkness pathway belong to adjacent pathways that can be interchanged, and their authorities also have overlapping aspects.
High-level charms of the Death domain can also fulfill certain functions of the Darkness pathway.
For instance, allowing all these spirits to be instantly purified and sent to their respective divine kingdoms.
Don watched as those spirits were completely purified by the charm, then turned his gaze toward the depths of the valley.
A woman in the distance had already collapsed to the ground, her expression changing from the previous hollow numbness to fierce agony. This place forbade any demonic power from appearing, and naturally, the demonic power buried deep in this demigod's mind also fell within this scope.
"The second flaw of Euclidean space—if there's no detailed observation, only general monitoring, problems deep in the mental layer are difficult to detect."
Don had seen this demigod before but had not discovered the problem from within the Euclidean space.
This was caused by his own insufficient Sequence level and the overly rushed time.
If he were to deal with high-Sequence Beyonders of the Spectator pathway, especially something like 0-08, he would need to improve his own Sequence level and strengthen his control over that space.
Of course, these were matters for later.
"And the power of the Abyss..."
When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back at you.
Don's mind recalled the phrase he had often seen in his previous life.
And with his mystical knowledge—
"When attempting to understand the Abyss, contact the Abyss, trying to find something from the Abyss, the seeker's inner mind will naturally be corrupted by the Abyss, because hidden there is the Dark Side of the Universe that can corrupt even deities."
This kind of corruption was silent and imperceptible, and even demigod-level Beyonders could not detect or resist it when encountering it.
This lady had probably been unknowingly contaminated during the continuous events while constantly receiving intelligence about the Abyss, actively pursuing the Rose School of Thought, and disrupting those bloody rituals.
When she traced the whereabouts of the Cosmic Dark Side's divine descent, she was immediately manipulated in reverse by the other party, who amplified her emotions, and subsequently killed Loen's demigod.
This lady could not serve as an ally and might even become his enemy in the next moment. Don quickly reached this conclusion in his mind. At the same time, countless chains pierced toward the distance, carrying the decree of reality enhancement, intending to capture that Cosmic Dark Side's divine descent.
But in the next moment, filthy power transmitted through the distant chains.
"You look quite interesting."
As if inspiration struck, Don's mind buzzed with the filthy words echoing within.
His spiritual intuition was disturbed, and images from the distance involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
It was a desolate valley, deep in thick darkness.
Countless chains pierced through it, and surrounded by the chains in the very center was a middle-aged male wearing a black hood, of medium build, ordinary appearance, yet appearing cold and lifeless, unlike a living person.
His eyes seemed to penetrate through space, directly gazing at Don's side.
"The power of the Arbiter Uniqueness," he said in a hoarse voice, each word appearing corrupt, dark, twisted, and mad.
In the next moment, a small black stain appeared on one corner of the parchment before Don.
