Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Black Fog State

Seeing the black flames rising on Song Jian’s body, Neiyem’s face revealed a look of shock, and he continuously backed off.

“Th-this is the aura of the Abyss, how, how is this possible, you…”

Song Jian let out a cold chuckle, and with a thought, the rising Abyssal Raging Flame instantly transformed into a set of black armor, covering his body.

“Immortal Sword Body, activate!” A dazzling golden light enveloped the armor and eight long sword shadows began to rotate tirelessly around him.

With the enhancement of the Immortal Sword Body and the Abyssal Demon Armor, Song Jian moved faster than Neiyem could track. A shadow flickered past, leaving only a black mark on the surface of Neiyem’s eyeball.

By the time Neiyem noticed, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. Lowering his head, he saw a dark red sword blade buried in his chest.

As he reached out to grasp the blade, it suddenly disappeared, followed by a plume of blood spurting from Neiyem’s chest.

With a sharp scream, the scorpion tail behind Neiyem started to whip wildly, and the shadow of the tail filled an area of three to four meters.

The sharpness of the tail’s poison hook was as deadly as any weapon. The overlapping sounds of cutting air resonated as it sliced through, as if it were even cutting through the air itself.

Song Jian was accidentally hit on his left arm, causing a brilliant light to explode. The eight sword shadows surrounding him disappeared one by one.

An injury number of over three hundred floated above Song Jian’s head, while a dark green mark started to spread from the wound on his shoulder.

The sword shadows around Song Jian’s body could lessen the damage he received eight times, but they couldn’t completely immunize him, especially against harmful effects like toxins.

However, the Immortal Sword Body couldn’t resist such damage, but Song Jian’s unique skill “Thick Skin” could. The max level “Thick Skin” had a very high resistance to toxin damage and various negative effects. In addition to the resistance of the Immortal Sword Body and Abyssal Demon Armor, the dark green poison on Song Jian’s arm only spread less than an inch before it gradually disappeared.

Although the attack from Neiyem was aimless, it nonetheless interrupted Song Jian’s offense.

Upon noticing that Song Jian was exposed, Neiyem exploded with fury. His six legs moved quickly, instantaneously arriving in front of Song Jian, bringing down his giant pincer.

Song Jian raised his sword to block. In front of Neiyem’s pincer, Song Jian’s long sword seemed as insignificant as a toothpick. But this “toothpick” managed to fend off Neiyem’s pincer, utterly disregarding Neiyem’s powerful strength.

But just as Song Jian fended off the gigantic pincer above him, he was caught off guard by a shadow blindsiding him. Another pincer from Neiyem was already clamping towards Song Jian’s waist.

Boom! Boom! Boom!…

Another round of fierce explosions. The seven remaining sword shadows on Song Jian shattered almost simultaneously.

Even the Abyssal Demon Armor on the surface of Song Jian’s body started to crack, with some weak areas even beginning to break and deform.

An injury number of over six hundred popped up above Song Jian’s head. His vitality points, which were already down to a thousand, plummeted even further after this hit.

Startled, Song Jian quickly activated the “Morphing into Dark Cloud” skill to break free from Neiyem’s pincer, enveloping Neiyem entirely within the dark cloud.

Inside the dark cloud, Neiyem suddenly felt separated from the surrounding Abyssal environment, gradually becoming weak. At the same time, damage kept inundating him from all sides. His vitality points dropped rapidly, but he couldn’t find any source of attack.

“Damn it, get the hell out, get out!”

Neiyem wildly swung his pincers and tail, carving marks within the rolling dark cloud, but they were quickly covered by the cloud again.

These actions from Neiyem were just physical attacks. After Song Jian had morphed into the dark cloud, he was completely immune to physical damage, which could not harm him at all.

While Neiyem’s attack contained damage from Abyssal Power, for Song Jian who had also mastered Abyssal Power, damage from the same property was negligible and he could afford to disregard it.

Taking advantage of his state as the dark cloud, Song Jian consumed an Advanced Healing Potion, increasing his vitality points that had fallen to a hundred something. This allowed him to breathe a little easier. The attack from Neiyem had caught him off guard. Neiyem was indeed formidable with power rivalling a first-class combatant. A slight lapse in concentration could have cost his life.

The dark cloud state could last fifteen minutes. It could cause almost six hundred points of damage to Neiyem, during which Song Jian could recover some vitality points.

Six hundred points of damage was a heavy hit for Neiyem at this point. Originally, he had less than one-third of his vitality points left, but after fifteen minutes, they fell below the 20% mark.

Just as Song Jian was recovering from the state of the dark cloud, a dazzling golden Sword Qi slashed towards Neiyem.

Light Strike!

By this point, Neiyem had been tormented by the dark cloud until he was utterly exhausted, no longer showing the agility he possessed as a spirit creature. Despite this, when the dazzling golden Sword Qi slashed towards him, Neiyem still instinctively raised his two giant pincers in defense.

Crack-

The golden Sword Qi passed by as if encountering no resistance, leaving a mark on Neiyem’s body. The sound of bones breaking came from inside Neiyem’s massive body.

Crack-

The two giant pincers fell to the ground, and Neiyem’s lifeless eyes stared ahead. A deep “heh heh” breath escaped from his mouth and a stream of dark green blood spurted from his body. His body split into two, sliding sidewards.

An injury number of over a thousand points floated above Neiyem’s head. Neiyem, whose vitality points were now at zero, did not even leave a complete body behind.

Song Jian took a few quick breaths. The energy required to maintain the dark cloud was substantial. After using a few skills, Song Jian didn’t have much mental strength left. After morphing into the dark cloud, his mental strength was nearly depleted. After executing the Light Strike, Song Jian could barely stand.

“It seems, I must acquire some potions or recipes for quick mental strength recovery,” Song Jian thought to himself.

It should be known, potions for mental strength recovery are ten times more valuable than those for vitality recovery. Although Song Jian had the ability to make Advanced Healing Potions, he couldn’t even make a novice-level mental strength recovery potion.

Thud!

A series of sparks exploded like fireworks from Neiyem’s large body. Items of various colors traced clear marks in the air, then quickly fell around Neiyem’s dead body.

Song Jian’s eyes lit up, and he quickly rushed towards Neiyem’s corpse.
