The purpilish-black mist expanded for over ten meters before stopping.
Rumble! The roaring sound continued, this time lasting for nearly two hours.
This made Jiang Yan's eyes light up. The longer the summoning lasted, the higher the probability of a powerful Monster appearing, or a functional Monster with extremely strong abilities.
As the mist dissipated, a nine-meter-tall Monster appeared.
It had a human-like physique, with its lower body composed of deep black energy that occasionally fluctuated. From its stomach upwards, the black disappeared, replaced by a soft white light that extended to its neck. Its melon-seed-shaped head, however, was not a normal organ.
Instead, it was a rotating mass of black and white energy. At the center where the two energies converged on its face, and moving further up, its forehead showed a left-black and right-white pattern, forming two energy braids that hung down to its waist, swaying occasionally.
"Master!" The Monster looked at Jiang Yan, and the surrounding air vibrated as a neutral voice emerged.
Jiang Yan looked at this Monster, momentarily stunned. He had once again witnessed the diversity of species.
His consciousness sank into his mind, and Jiang Yan began to inspect the target.
Abyssal Apostle, Yue: A powerful Monster from the Abyssal Third Level!
Black and White Energy Body: A body composed of special energy allows Yue to easily enter any space!
Dark Moon Mimicry: Yue can analyze the type of energy attack and imitate it!
Yue's Core Realm Transformation: Yue can temporarily change one rule within a certain area! (Changes one physical rule for half an hour, range is a five-hundred-kilometer diameter centered on Yue)
'Change rules?' Jiang Yan only read this one, then looked up at Yue. This ability alone would be at least Level Six, possibly even Seventh Level.
Jiang Yan thought for a moment, then said, "Yue, try changing the rules of this area."
Yue looked at Jiang Yan, and the surrounding space vibrated as the neutral voice came, "Master, what rule do you want me to change?"
Jiang Yan said without thinking, "Air!"
Yue heard this and said, "Okay, Master, I will now turn the air into poisonous gas."
"No, change the gravity ratio instead, just for one second, no need to change too much!" Jiang Yan quickly stopped it. His people were all nearby, and Yue's move would likely kill everyone below Level Three.
"Okay!" The black and white energy on Yue's body began to fluctuate, and a special energy began to affect the gravity within a five-hundred-kilometer radius centered on it.
As Yue made its move, Jiang Yan only felt his body lighten slightly; the gravity acting on him decreased a bit, but only marginally, to prevent problems in the surroundings.
In Research Base Number One, Dong Guangjie, who was improving the weird person weapon, suddenly looked up, his face showing shock: "Gravity changed!"
This was extremely serious, indicating a problem with Blue Star. Before he could even ponder, gravity returned to normal the next second.
Xie Gongming, who was beside him, saw this and asked strangely, "What's wrong, Guangjie? Is there a problem?"
Dong Guangjie looked at him and said, "Brother Gongming, didn't you notice a change in gravity just now?"
Xie Gongming shook his head: "I just felt my body lighten a bit, and then nothing else."
"It seems those who are too weak can't feel it." Dong Guangjie's eyes flickered. Only he, being Level Six, could detect the change more concretely.
That unusual gravitational change just now had him constantly thinking.
"Oh right, the President and Platinum are also here, they must have noticed it too. I need to ask them." Dong Guangjie raised the star seal in his hand.
Just as he was about to contact Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan seemed to know what he was going to do and sent a message in advance.
Jiang Yan: "Don't panic about the gravity change just now, it was my Monster changing it."
Dong Guangjie: "What a good thing, President, you must let me see it. It's too outrageous, it can even change physical rules, it's simply a god!!!"
Jiang Yan: "I'll have it go over later, feel free to use it."
Dong Guangjie looked at the message, his face filled with emotion: "It's truly exhilarating to work on so many projects with the President."
Yesterday, he even sent over a bunch of creatures from other worlds, which truly opened his eyes. Today, an even more terrifying existence emerged.
Xie Gongming heard this and looked at him curiously, "What did you tell the President?"
"You'll know later, let's continue. Let's try to increase the power of the weird person weapon again." Dong Guangjie didn't answer directly.
The weird person weapon has already been put into small-scale testing, used by the Monsters besieging the cities outside.
He and Xie Gongming were currently working on further modifications and upgrades.
Inside the grotto.
Jiang Yan looked at Yue in front of him with appreciation; he loved powerful subordinates.
After further communication with Yue, Jiang Yan understood its abilities even better.
Especially the last one, changing physical rules, which could not only affect a large area but also compress it to its own range, extending the duration to 5 hours.
The simplest way to use it was to change the kinetic energy collision of its body, directly making it immune to physical attacks for 5 hours with zero consumption, which was even more abnormal than Fang Wenyu's previous Heavenly Rotation Body, but this was just one of the rules it could change.
'Yue's strength can basically be confirmed to be at Seventh Level.' Jiang Yan's eyes flickered.
The Seventh Level designation was something he had created himself, because the strongest individuals in this world were only Level Six.
So, an existence that could instantly kill a Level Six would be a Seventh Level. With Yue's strength, capable of instantly killing trash like Bai Wenliang, plus its ability to instantly affect an area of five hundred kilometers, Jiang Yan felt that being Seventh Level was very likely.
Currently, among his subordinates, only Yue and Black Gold in its Platinum form could reach Seventh Level. Black Gold in its Gold form had already reached the upper limit of Level Six, so Platinum surpassing Level Six was normal.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan looked at Black Gold: "Go get the soul crystal for Yue."
However, before Black Gold had taken a few steps, the surrounding space vibrated, and Yue spoke, "Master, is the soul crystal you mentioned the fruit of the skeleton tree from the Abyssal First Level?"
"Yes, have you used it before?" Jiang Yan looked at Yue. He knew that Yue also came from the Abyss, specifically the Third Level.
Yue looked at Jiang Yan, and the air vibrated as it said, "I used it a long time ago; using it again will have no effect."
Black Gold heard this and turned to look at it: "That energy person, are there many of these things in your world?"
As the Monster guarding the soul crystal, it knew how rare and heaven-defying that thing was.
Jiang Yan also looked at it curiously: "Tell me about the Abyss, and your identity as an Abyssal Apostle?"
Jiang Yan generally didn't bother to ask about the worlds where those Monsters resided, as he couldn't go there anyway. However, he was starting to get curious about the Abyss, a world that had appeared multiple times.
The skeleton tree, the pillar of despair, Abyssal Apostle Yue—none of them were simple existences.
Yue heard this, and the surrounding air began to vibrate: "The Abyss, that is merely the lowest part of the Great World, one of the endpoints of various negative energies. There are nine levels in total. The further down you go, the denser the negative energy and the more terrifying the creatures within. The skeleton tree living on the First Level is also a rare species of the Abyss."
Jiang Yan and Black Gold, along with Ba Yao and Blood Master who had arrived at some point, listened quietly.
"As for the identity of an Abyssal Apostle, it's just a bonus I received for working for the Abyss. In the Abyssal World, this identity allows me to gain some protection and bonuses from the will of the abyss," Yue continued.
Jiang Yan heard this and his eyes flickered as he looked at it: "Doesn't that mean the Abyss is a conscious entity? Will your presence here allow it to pinpoint this location?"
Even a Level Three Yue was so powerful, what about the lowest level, or even the will of the abyss itself?
For some reason, Jiang Yan suddenly felt a sense of crisis. If such an existence were to attack his world, there would be no resistance.
Yue also seemed a bit puzzled: "Normally, wherever Abyssal Creatures go, the will of the abyss would lock onto that location. But when I passed through the purplish-black mist, the mark left on me by the will of the abyss was erased by the purplish-black mist. I can now confirm that this place will not be noticed by the Abyss."
Jiang Yan fell into thought upon hearing this. It was the first time he realized the purplish-black mist had such an effect.
These Monsters all came from their own worlds. As for why they became loyal to Jiang Yan after being summoned, he had investigated this. Their cognitive memories had been altered; according to them, Jiang Yan also existed in their worlds, and they had followed him before, now merely moving to a different world.
