Chapter 32: A First Glimpse of the Shadow of Nothingness
Apart from anything else, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm is definitely the pinnacle of existence in Douluo Continent in terms of mental power alone.

But at this moment, he was powerless in the face of the turmoil in Li Xingyi's spiritual sea. This was no longer something he could solve. It had exceeded the scope of power he could understand.

"Tianmeng, what should we do now?" Bingdi asked anxiously.

Fear already appeared in her heart.

I'm not going to die just because I was tricked into joining this so-called "God-making Plan"! That would be a huge loss for me!

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was also extremely anxious, as he had absolutely no idea of ​​a solution.

"Bingbing, don't panic. According to our analysis, Xingyi should be the successor chosen by this divine power. This should be a test or opportunity for Xingyi. His life should not be in danger. If I use all my mental power to wrap us up as a protective shield, we can still hold out for a while..."

Li Xingyi outside stared blankly at the [nothingness] in the sky. The two beasts in the sea of ​​spirit were powerless and could only wait and pray.

hum-

Suddenly, an ethereal sound came from the sea of ​​​​spirituality, somewhat like the vibration when Li Xingyi drew his sword.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Bingdi were attracted by the sound at the same time.

Looking up, I saw a white-haired woman not far away...

It's Huangquan!!

At the same time, the entire spiritual sea seemed to have stopped in time, but upon closer inspection, it was not the case. To be precise, the time of the entire spiritual sea slowed down, and the flow rate was less than one twentieth of the usual speed...

"Sure enough, from the moment I became the chosen one, I had a gravitational force... attracting [Nothingness]..."

Huang Quan murmured strange words.

While speaking, Huang Quan had already lowered his center of gravity and was preparing to draw his sword.

"The evening rain will eventually fall!"

A blood-red blade pierced through the entire spiritual sea, and the places that the blade touched were instantly annihilated into nothingness...

After one slash of the knife, Li Xingyi's spiritual sea returned to normal, returning to the azure blue color of a normal person's spiritual sea.

The next second, Huang Quan suddenly stood in front of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor. With a point of his finger, the protective shield constructed by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm disappeared instantly.

Under the astonished gazes of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Bingdi, Huang Quan spoke.

"Fortunately [Nothingness] has not yet arrived. These are just some residues. They can be solved, but they cannot be saved..."

After saying these incomprehensible words, Huang Quan's figure disappeared, leaving behind only the confused Tianmeng Bingcan and Bingdi.

……

The turmoil in the sea of ​​spirit ended, but the violent storm outside did not stop, and the [nothingness] in the sky in Li Xingyi's eyes still existed.

But he suddenly found that he had regained consciousness and could control his body.

In fact, his condition just now was similar to being sealed in his own body. He could feel everything but could not make any movements or changes.

at this time.

Li Xingyi saw Huang Quan standing beside him.

He turned around abruptly, staring at Huang Quan with wide eyes, muttering, "Miss Huang Quan?! Why are you here?"

On the other side, Lin Luyu was terrified to the extreme when he saw Li Xing being stunned again and again and then talking to the air.

I thought to myself, maybe Li Xingyi had encountered a ghost?
Wouldn't that mean I'm staying with ghosts?
I also seemed to have heard something about Miss Huangquan. Huangquan... This is not a good name. Huangquan is the place where dead people go!
"Xingyi, who are you talking to? There's nothing there."

Li Xingyi did not answer Lin Luyu's words, or rather, he did not notice at all that Lin Luyu was talking to him.

"Follow me." Huang Quan said, and then he turned and walked out the door.

"Oh... yes! Here it comes..." Li Xingyi immediately followed Huang Quan's steps and walked out of Lin Luyu's dormitory.

Lin Luyu didn't know about Huang Quan's existence, which resulted in her being unable to sleep for the entire second half of the night because she was afraid of ghosts.

the other side.

Li Xingyi followed Huang Quan all the way to the rooftop.

The heavy rain did not stop and continued to drip on Li Xingyi's body recklessly, but he did not feel any discomfort subjectively.

Huang Quan stood beside Li Xingyi and spoke first:

"I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but I don't have much time, and I don't have a very complete memory. I can only piece together the fragmented memories and try my best to give you an 'answer'.

"I don't know why I will appear in your spiritual sea at certain times, but one thing I can be sure of is that whenever there are enough [Fragments of Nothingness] in your spiritual sea, I will be teleported here and I can help you clean up these [Fragments of Nothingness]."

Hearing more unfamiliar words, Li Xingyi was confused.

But there was a feeling deep in his heart that seemed to tell him what these things were.

He asked in confusion: "[Fragment of Nothingness]? What is that?"

"[Fragments of Nothingness] are substances that have been tainted by the power of [Nothingness]. Originally, they could be anything, such as air, soil, or water droplets... But after being tainted by [Nothingness], they became [Fragments of Nothingness], and they will enter the spiritual sea of ​​you, the [Chosen One], without you even noticing."

"I can help you clean up these [Fragments of Nothingness] for a short period of time, but one day, the number of these [Fragments of Nothingness] will be so huge that I will be helpless. Your starting point is higher than any previous [Chosen One], and you can only rely on yourself in the future."

"At this moment, [Nothingness] has begun to move towards this planet. When it moves, it will be captured by [The Chosen One], but at the same time, this world has entered the countdown..."

When Li Xing recalled Huang Quan's past experiences, the scene of the destruction of Douluo Continent seemed to appear before his eyes.

Everything he loved was gone, and perhaps he was also...

Even if he managed to survive, he would be nothing more than a void walker like the underworld, living miserably with the determination for revenge and pain in his heart.

"What should I do?" Li Xingyi asked.

Huang Quan looked up at the nothingness in the sky, as if he was recalling his past.

Tears mixed with blood slid down from the corners of his eyes.

"do not know."

"do not know?!"

"I don't know. In fact, we don't know when He came into existence. We also don't know how much He destroyed. From ancient times to the present, even before the concept of time was created, no civilization has ever survived the annihilation of [Nothingness]."

despair!

So desperate!

Li Xingyi couldn't find any hope at all. It felt like... it felt like...

The Singer Civilization casually threw a piece of two-dimensional foil at a group of Paramecium!

"If that's the case, then why does civilization still resist?"

A smile suddenly appeared on Huang Quan's face. This was the first time Li Xingyi saw a change in Huang Quan's facial expression.

"It is precisely because we are civilized that we resist!"
