Colin realized this the instant he was attacked.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Accompanied by this distraction, his right hand, which contained multiple forces, hadn’t even thrown a punch before it exploded like a misfired gun, turning into too many chunks of flesh to count.

His entire body shook, and he fell backward once again.

It was at this time that a gaze from a higher place seemed to arrive, accompanied by a message.

“Forsake the bonfire’s error, become my disciple, and you shall be reborn.”

‘Please, can’t you come up with a new line…’

As these thoughts flickered through Colin’s mind, he glanced at his right arm, now reduced to a small piece of flesh, understanding that this explosion was mostly caused by the “King of Madness”‘s power…

He still wasn’t proficient in controlling its power.

As for the items, they usually retracted on their own when there was a problem, not causing much harm to himself.

However, if he had used the repulsion to push out the “vibration” in the emergency just now,

He could have saved his arm…

It was just that his status was so poor that he didn’t react in time.

Taking a deep breath, Colin withdrew his gaze and responded with a cold tone, “Being cautious to blockade this place, do you intend to devour me alone?”

“Following my path is the most suitable choice for you now…”

“Is that so.”

Colin remained unmoved, ready to break free from this predicament at a certain cost: “Unfortunately, I don’t think you’re qualified to be acknowledged by me.”

‘If I can escape quickly for a short time, the risk of dying isn’t very high, it’s just that I will suffer for a longer period afterward, yeah, the key is to ensure that my ‘soul consciousness’ doesn’t continue to take damage…’

As he quickly calculated the price he would have to pay, Colin finally had some understanding of the hardships faced by the “official Extraordinary Ones” of the past.

Every time he used any ability, the first step was to calculate if he could withstand it and what the cost would be.

Otherwise, if he was not careful, a great problem might arise…

Even direct death was a possibility.

However, just as Colin made up his mind and prepared to break through the blockade using an item before the opponent’s descent conditions were ripe,

An abrupt change occurred!

A pressure incredibly intense exploded suddenly from the outside in!

The next second, Colin saw that within the gray domain, large amounts of black lightning surged in. This lightning made no obvious sound but possessed a terrorizing force that made it seem as if space itself were being ripped open…

“Is this… ‘Formless Mother’s’ power?! Is it here? I thought it had already left?”

Colin was suddenly dumbfounded.

Since the first time he used the “Hunger” power, he hadn’t sensed the presence of the “Formless Mother.”

And without any surprises, Colin surmised that it must have left this land.

Since it had already accomplished its mission of blocking an attack for him, there was no reason for it to continue to intervene…

However, the present black lightning seemed to suggest that the situation might not be as simple as he had assumed?

Meanwhile, great amounts of black lightning, upon entering this sealed space, immediately swarmed in disorder like black serpents, gradually filling the entire domain…

Soon after, they seemed to discover something and turned direction rapidly, slamming towards the heretic woman in the gray cloak.

The woman, occupied by a higher consciousness, immediately began to retaliate…

She tore open her chest garment with both hands, revealing that her flesh had vanished from the front of her torso, leaving only bloody ribs engraved with strange patterns…

Beneath the ribs, like boards of a coffin, was the confinement of numerous gray, eerie, and terrifying life forms.

At this moment, her expression indifferent, she opened the “rib gate” on her chest as if she were pulling open a grand door.

In an instant, gray substances gushed out flood-like from behind her chest, blurring this place as if suddenly covered by a mosaic, rendering it indistinct.

Amidst the haziness, numerous bizarre creatures, like shrill banshee witches, let out piercing, soul-snatching screams as they collided with the black lightning.

Any stray black lightning that touched anything immediately evaporated it.

On the other side, as the two forces collided, Colin, well-prepared, retracted the “Mountain of Smiling Corpses” back into the storage room. Then he pulled Yukionna behind him, his hand pressing on the white phalanx on his chest…

The pale and thin light, seemingly as fragile as the petals of a dandelion, protected them steadily within its shield, shielding them from the impact of the mighty duel.

And behind Colin, Yukionna, peeking her head out, widened her eyes curiously watching the terrifying battle unfold before her.

At this moment, even she could tell that the strange woman in the gray cloak, carrying a fragment of a higher will, didn’t seem to be a match for the black lightning at all…

She was almost continuously suppressed.

Of course, what made her most curious was that the black lightning reminded her of a kind of fear as if it were etched into her very bones.

‘This thing, indeed, still had a trump card…’ Colin thought rather hazily as he watched the rib gate being pulled open.

Fortunately, the thing was forced out by that being resembling the “Formless Mother,” sparing him from continuing to face it.

Had it been him, although he could fight past it, he would likely waste some energy—

This thing was probably out for his life from the beginning!
