Chapter 1388 Searching Through The Darkness



A Hat with 2 slots, a Bracer, and a Shield with 48 slots; that was all Alex had at the moment in the form of artifacts that he could use to send away any person he ran into.

With his Yang Qi, he felt invincible at the moment. Since most people's spiritual sense would turn out useless against him when he forced out a lot of Yang Qi, he felt like he had nothing to worry about. 

However, he knew there were 2 problems right now that could easily send him thrown out of the abyss if he wasn't careful.

First was his Yang Qi. Since there was barely any Yang Qi in the Abyss, he couldn't use it so frequently. If he used it too much, he would overwork the Yang source inside of his Dantian to the point where the Yin could take over the Yang.

If that happened, his body would certainly be in a very dangerous state.

As a result, using Yang Qi every time he met someone was out of the question. Instead, he needed to first see if he could catch them with his spiritual sense instead of using his Yang Qi to defend himself.

Secondly, even if he did use Yang Qi, there was no way he was invincible. Just like he had used the technique just now, there would definitely be others that were around who could easily see his number behind his back, just as he had done to the man just moments ago.

If someone managed to sneak behind him and catch him by surprise, he could lose.

As such, he still had to remain vigilant at all times.

"I wonder what else my body can do," Alex said.

"Isn't your body supposed to e well known?" Godslayer asked.

"Hmm… yes," Alex replied. "Not for its true name, but there are plenty of other names that it is known by. That's what the senior told me."

"Then there much be records about what your body can do," Godslayer said.

"The senior doesn't have it," Alex said. "I already asked him for it. The only unique thing about my body that he remembered was that I could devour stuff, but I already know I can do that."

"Hmm, but he's not the only one with the information," Godslayer said. "There should be many in the Immortal realm that have this knowledge. You'll just have to see it all there."

ƥandasnovel·ƈom "In the Immortal realm, huh?" Alex couldn't help but chuckle. He didn't even know how long he would have to wait to go over there.

"Alright, you can think about your body later. Let's go find my food for now," Godslayer said.

"Sure, let's go," Alex said and flew in another random direction, not before gathering the debris around here to make sure he was leaving behind markings as to where he had been before.

Floating around the darkness, Alex moved everywhere he knew he hadn't been before. He marked the places he went to and moved further, all in hopes that Godslayer sensed whatever it was that created the shadow aura

As he moved, he realized that finding people was getting harder and harder by the hour. He met one other person in the entire day, who ran away from him the moment their spiritual senses came close to each other.

Alex continued flying for a while longer, coming across a few more people in the next few days, of which he managed to send almost all of them away. 

He ended up spending the hat and the bracer, and 2 more slots in his shield. At the same time, he gained a dagger with all slots available and a single Bracer.

He let go of the people who ran away, as his primary reasoning wasn't to win here. However, no matter how much he moved through the shadows, he could not find anything that evoked Godslayer into finding out what the source of all this shadow was.

The days turned monotonous with only debris floating all around him in the darkness. Everything felt the same. Even time seemed still to him.I think you should take a look at

The only occasional break was when he found someone and had to pull out his Yang Qi to protect himself while getting rid of the ones that he met.

They all used whatever they could to disrupt one's spiritual sense to stop them from finding them, which Alex had to fight through to see their number.

At one point, he even met someone that completely threw him for a loop with what he was doing.

When their spiritual sense came into contact, Alex waited to see if the person would run away or come closer. When he moved toward him, Alex instantly put up his Yang Qi to block the man's spiritual sense. 

Once his safety was confirmed, he moved on to getting the person's name. That was when he came across the problem. 

The man was destroying his spiritual sense when it came too close. He had no talisman, no formation plate, and absolutely no artifact on him. Which meant that he was using a technique to do so.

From what Alex could sense, the man was using a spiritual technique to destroy his spiritual sense. 

Since he was actively stopping his spiritual sense from getting close by fighting against it, Alex couldn't get the man's number.

With neither of them getting each other's numbers, they came to a standstill. Alex was surprised, and so was the man.

They stood there for a few seconds before the man decided to run away. Alex didn't follow him. He was just that much confused to do anything at the moment.

"Spiritual energy can be used to destroy Spiritual sense?" he couldn't help but ask. It was his first time experiencing something like that, so he was amazed.

Until now, the spiritual sense was used to harm other person's mind or disrupt it. Never had it been used to actually destroy spiritual sense itself, and the possibility of that had surprised Alex.

However, after thinking about it for a bit, he realized that there was no reason for him to believe it wasn't possible. After all, it was no different than the 3rd stage of his Spiritual Providence skill which allowed him to create a barrier with his spiritual energy when using a weapon. 

A stage he had yet to master.

This was definitely the best place to train it when he thought about it, but given that he didn't have a weapon on him, he couldn't train on it. But, he wasn't disappointed about that. There were plenty of other places to improve himself on that.

He moved away from the location and went on to explore more of this dark world. 

Days passed in which he found a few more people and eliminated most of them.

Then, halfway through the third week of being in the abyss with barely anyone around him, Godslayer suddenly reacted.

"Wait, it's close," he shouted in Alex's mind. "It's close, keep moving."

Alex got alert all of a sudden and moved straight forward in that direction.

"Close, we're close," Godslayer said.

Then, Alex paused. Not because he came across an object as he was hoping, but instead a person.
