Chapter 151 Ephemeral Darkness
"What do you mean Qin Chen's cultivation base has been completely lost?" Shen Yulan asked, her eyes widening with disbelief.
"I cannot possibly lie to you. I don't sense any Reiki or cultivation base within Qin Chen. It's like he's an ordinary human," Li Yan explained, her voice earnest.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yulan became even more shocked. She knew every cause had a consequence, but what had caused Qin Chen to suddenly be struck by lightning and lose his cultivation base?
The thought weighed heavily on her mind, rendering her completely speechless.

Meanwhile, in another world...
Lei Guang stood in front of a statue of a giant sword, towering over 30 meters high.
His expression was filled with awe, his heart beating faster. Clearly, it wasn't an ordinary sword statue before him.
After exploring the new world he had entered, he had immediately found the sword statue, which exuded a sense of mystery.
His hand touched the surface of the sword, and the next moment, golden runes started appearing, slowly enveloping the sword statue in its brilliant light.
Lei Guang was slightly surprised; he quickly withdrew his hand from the statue and stepped back, gazing upward where the sword had become entirely shrouded in gold.
However, in the next instant, the golden light swiftly dissipated, giving way to a massive chain that bound the giant sword statue.
"What? What's happening?" he exclaimed in astonishment. The golden brilliance had only just emerged, and now it had transformed into chains.
He cautiously stepped back, sensing an ominous presence.
His instincts proved correct; he detected several menacing energies around him. He turned, only to confront eight sinister entities, twisted forms born of darkness, reminiscent of blazing flames.
"At long last, I confront you, Dark Souls!" he declared. The source of this content is N0veII_bIn
Each of these malevolent entities exuded a lethal aura, shrouded in darkness so intense that it seemed to devour even the faintest glimmer of light.
He unsheathed a sword from his spatial ring. In a swift and precise movement, he lunged forward, appearing in front of one of the souls, an armored figure devoid of a head.
His motions were exact and fluid. At a pivotal instant, he stretched out his arms, darkness oozing from his fingertips, coalescing into ten tendrils that ensnared the approaching dark souls.
The dark souls rapidly lost their forms, assimilated by the voracious darkness within Long Tian.
The darkness enveloping Long Tian intensified. As the ten dark souls were entirely assimilated, an explosion of darkness emanated from him, hurling the remaining dark souls backward.
Two menacing wings sprouted from his back, coupled with a shadowy crown adorning his head.
"Now, let's slaughter them all!" he sneered.
In an instant, he took flight, the beats of his dark wings resonating with death as he ruthlessly dispatched and absorbed the dark souls before him.

Long Tian stood in the heart of the forest, a solitary figure amidst the carnage. Despite his solitary appearance, the ground beneath him bore the scars of a fierce battle, testament to his clash against the dark souls.
His form was consumed by the very essence of darkness, so much so that his once red irises had metamorphosed into an abyssal black, mirroring the eyes of Li Yue'er herself.
"With these countless soul beasts, my power has surged significantly. I won't let this chance slip away," he growled.
Leaping high into the air, he flew with menacing wings of darkness on his back, heading towards another location.

Amidst the forest, Lei Guang stood, panting heavily, his face contorted with exhaustion and satisfaction.
The ground around him was littered with the bodies of over 20 dark souls he had slain with his spear, their twisted forms evidence of his ruthless efficiency.
Crack!
A sharp sound pierced the air. Lei Guang whirled around to witness the chain that bound the colossal sword shatter into pieces.
A grin spreading across his face. "Now, what will I obtain?"
The colossal sword suddenly shrank, transforming into a regular-sized blade that floated before him.
Lei Guang's expression was filled with awe. His hand reached out to touch the sword's hilt.
The next moment, a sharp "Crack!" reverberated from the sword, shedding the fractured layers of stone and revealing the sharp blade with its ominous dark aura.
A wide grin stretched across his face. "The first treasure is mine. I will seize all the good things in this world!"
