Chapter 1691 - 1686: Prison Angel

Chapter 1691: Chapter 1686: Prison Angel

Among the various types of Transcendent powers encountered, "Angels" are almost one of the most targeted.

Without any reason, their attacks are coupled with a special effect that deducts SAN Points, causing a two-digit loss in SAN Points the first time it happened.

In comparison, Brother Sanxun of Xi Yuan relies on much harsher conditions, such as being a senior, wielding the authority of legitimate laws, transforming into a non-human constitution, and lengthy cooldown times, to achieve similar effects.

Fu Qian always deeply remembers the cleansing authority behind this power.

Even though, upon meeting Ailina and the others later, some simple power materializations no longer caused damage to his SAN Points.

The understanding at the time was because of solidifying traits, one’s existence state became more stable.

However, now facing the Second Phase self, it seems possibly effective again.

A plausible explanation might be that the thing behind has similarly grown stronger.

Possibly also at Second Phase, or even higher.

This matches well with Wen Li’s previous experiences.

"Seems a bit off."

At this time, Miss Wen, who was meditating with eyes closed, conveniently provided reference information again.

"My emotions, whether deep or shallow, seem to inevitably fade, turning flat... do you also feel something similar?"

Plus, it’s highly professional.

"Same here."

Fu Qian instantly responded to this, his tone genuinely unmoved, as he turned to Yuan Shan.

"How many times?"

"Five times."

The latter sighed lightly and continued counting.

"And this effect of annihilating humanity, it accumulates with each repetition... seems like I’ve found the negative influence that can be applied during this process."

...

Annihilating humanity, this term is indeed fitting.

Fu Qian wasn’t speaking randomly; the emotional state change mentioned by Wen Li was also vividly perceived by him.

Meanwhile, ever since the feather melted in his palm, the subsequent short period went through that abstract repetition again.

Wen Li naturally still couldn’t sense this, but Chief Yuan, with her rich practical experience, summarized the change accurately at the first opportunity.

Emotion fades, as if struggling to escape the mind, leaving behind an empty shell named rationality.

In Fu Qian’s view, sitting across a Soul-Sucking Monster wouldn’t be as thorough.

Not only joy, but the genuine smoothing of all emotional fluctuations.

Life brings no joy, death bears no sorrow; emptiness becomes form, form becomes emptiness, if fundamentally empty, why be affected by dust and dirt—all these rush in thoroughly.

Even though Chief Yuan missed counting once, she was spot-on.

In that abstract time repetition, this negative influence was the only one not reset, but perfectly accumulated instead.

Just now, while researching what significance this peculiar cycle, incapable of altering one’s method of eating fish, held, an answer emerged.

Moreover, it appeared to be a rather helpless answer, as that hidden "Angel" remained without any traces.

And these two changes seemed even inescapable.𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Yes, seems like we’ve fallen into a trap."

Face as calm as a still pond, eyes clear as water, Fu Qian described the current predicament like someone enlightened, almost with folded hands.

...

"You mean the target of that thing wasn’t actually Wen Li but us?"

Fu Qian’s statement evidently sparked a brainstorm, but when a hypothesis was reached, Chief Yuan spoke with a peaceful demeanor.

"It knows Wen Li would seek our help, so it lured us using this method?"

The primary reason for this performance was naturally the loss of humanity’s influence, and lack of emotional fluctuations.

But actually, there’s another point, which is that the two sides were already exchanging pleasantries.

Already mentioned during office conspiracy, mind your words and actions when coming out, enter roles.

Even though the essence of this trip was a reverse probe possibly targeting Corin.

But the overt reason for the two was to help Wen Li solve threats.

Even if the opponent’s methods now seem unexpected, lacking support for the previous identity judgment, Yuan Shan noticeably hadn’t forgotten this.

"Sorry..."

At this time, Wen Li, who finally raised her head, seemed to understand her meaning, cooperatingly expressing apology.

"No worries, it’s not your responsibility."

Instantly indicating to Wen Li not to blame herself, Yuan Shan glanced at Fu Qian, frowning slightly with misplaced emotions.

"But what is the purpose of setting this trap? Even if it turns us into walking dead, what significance does it have for it?"

"Sounds like I’ve heard similar words before."

Fu Qian’s reaction was a gentle shake of the head, looking at her meaningfully.

"Just now you seemed to say you didn’t sense negative influence—and then it came."

...

"Moreover, don’t always speculate maliciously, what if that Birdman’s purpose is actually to purify the sullied souls, saving us from the sea of enmity and ignorance?"

Yuan Shan stayed silent, and Fu Qian unabashedly continued.

Of course, his suggestion was excessively harmonious, so much so even Miss Wen didn’t agree.

"Evoke some negative emotions, create a stirring ripple, just like when you ascended."

Fu Qian naturally wouldn’t mind this point, as next moment he approached directly.

"Not sure how effective it’ll be, I’ve already tried evoking my emotions earlier, but it’s rather faint."

Fu Qian’s request wouldn’t be rejected by Wen Li, but as she began gathering strength in an instant, she took care to remind gently.

"It’s okay, humanity itself is complex and elusive, if you want to discern, worldly impermanence is almost the first hurdle."

Fu Qian softly waved, signaling not to be concerned, act casually.

"Here it comes again."

Just then, Yuan Shan reminded once more, indicating that peculiar cycle appeared again.

As she spoke, Miss Wen, the emotional agitator herself, visibly became more serene in temperament, resembling Shattering Void in appearance.

That secluded Birdman brother seemed internally relieved due to everyone’s reactions, preparing to quickly assist in attaining enlightenment and ascension.

Of course, the endless red dust, truly attaining enlightenment isn’t that simple.

Wen Li ultimately completed her gathering of strength, in the next moment Fu Qian was selected as the primary target.

When flames of anger and pain surged within, Fu Qian could fully perceive that this newly ascended Fourth Phase had exerted a great effort.

Even with his enlightenment, his inner peace couldn’t prevent violent agitation.

Yet that’s all it was, the intensity not enough to support a Soul Demolishing Palm, and dissipated in an instant.
