Dimensional Descent

‘The Eternal Night’ ranked third among all the cards in Chen Mu’s hand.

The top card was the mysterious card from Master Rosenberg. Although this card was still an enigma, its importance to Chen Mu was self-evident. It could be said that without this card, Chen Mu wouldn’t be the person he is today.

Card making, perceptual exercise, body building skills…

The importance of each step could not be underestimated.

Rosenberg’s disciples disguised the card as a one-star power-card in order to escape Heiner Van Sant’s search. These disciples have long become ancient legends, disappearing into the river of time. Nobody knew their original intention, but they probably did not expect that the card they took great pains to pass down miraculously created a legend.

This card’s top position among all of Chen Mu’s cards was unshakeable.

In second place was the seven-star card ‘The Fiend’s Eye’ that Caesar gave him. This was the famous card of Su Haoze, the former leader of Desert Camp, and the only seven-star card of Desert Camp. It is incredibly powerful, and as the greatest among light beam cards, it ranked second among all of Chen Mu’s cards.

‘The Eternal Night’ ranked third. Although it could not stand at the top of a class of cards like the ‘The Fiend’s Eye’, its Six Stars meant it was second only to the legendary seven star cards. And it is an illusion card, which is very rare and can catch opponents off guard.

Mystery cards are not combat cards, so these two cards have become Chen Mu’s most powerful weapons, even more powerful than power gloves! Thus, he spent a lot of effort to master these two cards in the past two years.

The current situation proved that his efforts were not in vain.

The incredible speed, strength, skill and inspiration of his opponent was shocking, almost impenetrable! The moment he revealed a weakness, the shining black, pencil-straight rose stem would immediately pierce through his body.

This would have been a rather tricky situation in the past. But the him now could respond accordingly.

Chen Mu’s expression became focused.

He used his senses like a dexterous hand to gently touch the point in the meter where energy was concentrated.

‘The Eternal Night: Foggy Gauze’!

Centered on Chen Mu, the invisible fluctuations were like a dense mist, twisting and transforming.

Wesley who had been following closely behind Chen Mu stopped, his grim and demonic face looking a little confused.

His confusion was quick to fade, lasting less than a second before he regained his sobriety! His eyes recovered their ferocity, and he did not hesitate to continue rushing towards Chen Mu!

If a card artisan was present, they would surely have detected the oddness around Chen Mu. Distorted and constantly changing invisible fluctuations formed an area around Chen Mu invisible to the naked eye.

‘Foggy Gauze’!

Self-Creating Skills.

Chen Mu found that although the wave bands emitted by ‘The Eternal Night’ can affect the human brain and cause hallucinations, they are not as lethal to those with great determination. In actual combat, he found it difficult to kill the very powerful beasts with ‘The Eternal Night’.

As for the top among the powerful masters, their spirit was rock-solid and hard to shake.

So he simply used ‘The Eternal Night’ as an auxiliary card. The wave bands released were not lethal, but sufficient to interfere with the enemy. He was not a card artisan who could only rely on cards. His airskills were equally lethal.

That was how the name ‘Foggy Gauze’ came about, as the wave bands were like gauze worn on his body.

Countless beasts were defeated by this trick. To Chen Mu, any tiny flaw was the perfect opportunity for him to kill his opponent.

Chen Mu turned back, prepared to kill him, and stopped dodging. Ten thin threads shot out of the power glove like ten poisonous snakes coming out of their holes, aimed at the opponent.

Ding Ding Ding!

A series of intense and sharp sounds of impact rang out like a storm, and countless sparks flew between them like raindrops! The flickering sparks illuminated their faces. The surrounding flexsters, whether from the Dark Tribe or Mose’s army, looked at them fearfully, and kept a safe distance.

Since coming out of the Hundred Depths, this was the first time someone pushed him to this stage of unprecedented concentration. He used his State Zero to the fullest, complicated calculations flying through his mind quickly like snowflakes’ debris and energy lines whirring past around him.

The frequency of Wesley’s attacks was unpredictable. The shining black rose stalk on his hand was like a part of his body, and could attack from any angle.

That tiny flower stalk was like the fiercest, toughest weapon in the world, and was the perfect combination of strength and skill!

A grin reappeared on Wesley’s lips.

He could clearly sense that the other party had fallen into his fighting rhythm. He attacked more and more quickly, and the pleasure of mastering the rhythm made every cell of his body tremble until he felt like screaming!

His opponent was going to die!

At that moment, however, his pupils suddenly enlarged, and with a stricken expression, his movements slowed down without giving a sign.

Bang!

The clear sound of an explosion rang out. Chen Mu struck his chest, and instantly his chest opened, and flesh and blood splattered everywhere! The strength of this blow was so great that the white bones of his ribs could be seen.

But as if nothing had happened, and without a trace of pain in his expression, Wesley rushed towards Chen Mu after a mere slight pause.

Chen Mu was shocked. Such an injury was such that even the strong cardless sects would be immobile, yet it was nothing to Wesley. It was also odd that such a big wound ought to have blood spurting out of it, yet his wound was not.

In the depths of the Hundred Depths, injuries were a common occurrence. Sometimes, winning came at the cost of injury. Thus Chen Mu was very familiar with all kinds of wounds. Somehow, the wound on Wesley’s chest began to knit itself back together!

An indescribable chill crept up silently within him.

Not long after, Wesley left a gap, and three energy threads, like poisonous snakes which have been lying in wait, burrowed into it.

Plop!

Three energy lines pierced Wesley’s chest in an instant. Chen Mu’s heart settled. Nobody could survive such a wound. The combination of ‘Foggy Gauze’ and power gloves was one of his most common tactics. In order to catch the other party off guard, the strength of ‘Foggy Gauze’ was very low, which made the attack more covert.

Wesley’s eyes widened, and he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn’t make a sound.

The people of the Dark Tribe stared at the immobile Wesley in disbelief, their minds blank. They had always thought the five lead commanders were invincible.

Just when everyone was shocked, Wesley’s drooping black rose stalk suddenly straightened and shot forwards.

There was no way to describe this attack!

A bright black light lit up Chen Mu’s field of vision, so piercingly bright he closed his eyes subconsciously!

His hair standing on end, Chen Mu shouted violently before he could think about it. He spread his ten fingers and slashed wildly.

Clang!

Ten energy lines shattered into hundreds of pieces which shot quickly towards Wesley.

Ping!

With a dull thud, as if hit head-on by a car, Wesley’s body rose up and flew backwards.

Chen Mu watched with trepidation as Wesley fell to the ground, motionless. It was fortunate that he had not lost his vigilance just now, otherwise he would be the one on the ground now. Wesley was very eerie, even his last struggle before death was so powerful and shocking.

The crimson roses on Wesley’s forehead faded away. The rose spots on his body also slowly faded away, and the wounds began to bleed wildly. In a moment, there was a big pool of blood underneath him.

In terms of attacking power, the card artisans of the Heavenly Federation were stronger, but the attack of the flexsters of the House of a Hundred Depths were weirder and more changeable. All the strange abilities made even Chen Mu afraid. On the other hand, in terms of physical strength, the Mohadi Domain, which produced Wei-Ah that non-human, would win. Chen Mu was looking forward to it.

The death of Wesley was the battle’s dividing line.

Seeing Sol’s endless sequence of strange tactics, Chen Mu felt that close combat would not be a good choice, so he used ‘The Fiend’s Eye’.

A bright red eye appeared in the sky.

A beam of red light shot down from the sky, shooting Sol with great precision!

The white pulp beside Sol blocked the red light for only a second. It was unfortunate that Sol was much less athletic than Wesley, or this second would have been enough for him to escape.

The death of the two lead commanders caused the morale of the people of the Dark Tribe to drop sharply. But the fact that they still have not given up in this situation amazed Chen Mu. While the flexsters under Mose were dying at a faster rate than the people of the Dark Tribe, victory was still getting further and further away from the people of the Dark Tribe.

Under the awestruck gazes of the flexsters, Chen Mu floated high into the sky, searching for Zara.

Zara’s arch nemesis was Shang Yuan Di, the leader whose expertise was assassination, but Chen Mu had absolute faith in her. Zara had been training intensely these past two years, and was no longer comparable to her previous self.

Indeed it did not take long before Chen Mu found Zara. She looked worse for wear, but she was not hurt.

Zara stood on a hill, looking down at the chaotic battlefield. Chen Mu flew to her side and landed.

“Solved?”

“Yes,” Zara responded with a quiet hum. After a while, she suddenly said, “Once this is over, let’s go back to the Heavenly Federation.”

“Back to the Heavenly Federation?” Chen Mu was surprised. “Do you know the way?”

Zara replied, “I know its general direction.”

“Well, okay!” Chen Mu responded. He suddenly missed them: Copper, Bagner, Xi Ping, Sue Lochiro…

The Big Crack Base was heavily guarded, and everyone in the conference room looked sombre.

The transit window leading to the Mohadi Domain had been conquered. According to the information they got from the prisoners, it was the king of the Mohadi Domain who had taken the transit window.

This was clearly terrible news for them. It also meant that they had to fight against the forces of a domain!

Fortunately, the base was very far away from the Mohadi Domain’s base, leaving them plenty of time to prepare. But once this buffer period had passed, both sides would no longer have any time to rest.

“Get ready.” Bagner was calm and cold. They would never give up the ash stratum, even if the other party was the king of the Mohadi Domain.

“Tell them they only have three months!” His voice turned cold, “Three months, we must completely control the common residential district within three months!”

No one objected!

This was the only way for them to just barely hold their own against the king of a domain, and this was the only way they would not be faced with the situation of being surrounded on all sides by enemies.

They have to conquer the common residential district in three months!
