Chapter 924: Chapter 477: I Really Can’t Open It

"Step back..." Costate said in a deep voice.

Even without his reminder, everyone had already retreated a considerable distance, simultaneously closing their skin pores, appearing quite solemn.

On the remains of the Abyss Clan life form, the flesh and bones were gone, leaving only the constantly evaporating gray-white mist spiraling around before eventually dissipating completely.

No one knew what these things were, and no one dared to touch them casually.

"Dead..." the crowd murmured, uncertain and suspicious.

The incident occurred very suddenly and without any warning, which was truly strange.

Considering its painful and distorted appearance, it didn’t seem like suicide.

Could it really have died?

Li Ming was equally astonished. Could it be related to the Power of Eternal Abyss he had extracted from its body?

Indeed, he had drawn not only the genetic essence from the opponent but also another unknown energy during the absorption process, which was the Power of Eternal Abyss.

But what surprised him was that the Power of Eternal Abyss was still incomplete.

Could it be that this thing was at the level of an Ultimate Life Form?

"Isn’t there a so-called contaminated zone?" Costate’s eyes were filled with confusion, "This is recorded in the Terrax civilization; it shouldn’t be wrong."

"Don’t speak such ambiguous words. If Prince knows anything, just say it." Crow couldn’t help but emphasize.

"After an Abyss Clan member dies, it forms a region that erodes the universe, causing significant damage to any physical matter." Diwusi supplemented.

They were observing the area left by the Abyss Clan’s death using various methods, but found nothing unusual.

She even captured a wisp of the gray-white mist, boldly placing it in her hand for observation, becoming increasingly curious: "There’s no lethality at all, even the material composition is quite basic."

"Could these two be test subjects?" Costate speculated, "Have they been stripped of their ability to leave behind such contaminated zones by the Holy Spirit civilization?"

Diwusi disagreed: "Unlikely. According to what we know, dealing with these contaminated zones is very cumbersome for the Terrax civilization, and they can’t destroy them completely, only compress them and return them to the Eternal Abyss."

Compressed?

Li Ming was slightly moved, recalling the source of his first piece of incomplete Power of Eternal Abyss, which he acquired from a Lord-level Titan in the Dimension World.

According to the information controlled by Robbin’s side, such things should be handed over and destroyed, but that Lord-level Titan kept it as a souvenir.

He previously thought it was left by a dead Abyss Clan member, but it turns out to be a compression method, making Li Ming suddenly clear in his mind.

The contaminated zone left after the death of an Abyss Clan member is likely caused by the Power of Eternal Abyss.

Since it was absorbed by him, it naturally won’t cause any more impact.

And during their conversation, others couldn’t interject.

The Empire and Federation are considered the two oldest known interstellar civilizations, and the strength of the Star Cluster Republic Alliance is not to be underestimated, but its foundation is still too little.

Information about the Abyss Clan is clearly inferior to that of the Empire and Federation.

As for Reynolds and Mikhail, there’s no need to mention.

The two of them are merely the heads of individual organizations, having only snippets of understanding about the Eternal Abyss and the Abyss Clan.

Others listened intently, but in the end, found no conclusion, prompting Crow to frown, "Let’s leave the issue of the contaminated zone for now, why did it suddenly die?"

Saying this, his gaze fell on Li Ming, "Aren’t you going to explain a bit?"

"You think this has something to do with me?" Li Ming still hadn’t lifted his Venerate King Form, his burly mechanical body quite imposing.

"Otherwise, among us, you were the one who contacted it the longest." Crow felt awkward, as currently, it was obviously Li Ming controlling this body, just a young lad, but now possesses the power to suppress him.

This made him somewhat guilty when questioning.

"Hehe..." Li Ming naturally wouldn’t admit, "This thing was an X Level Life Form, how could I have disposed of it silently?"

"Then why did it look at you before dying?" Crow pressed on.

"I beat it so hard before, isn’t this normal?" Li Ming said indifferently, "For instance, Lord Crow, I haven’t hit you, and yet you often secretly peek at me."

Saying this, he calmly added, "And even if I did kill it, so what? I see Your Excellency seems to be questioning me? What relation does this thing have to you..."

Crow was annoyed, about to rebuke, but the pressure from the Mechanical Sovereign came forth, making him snort coldly, losing some momentum.

Others didn’t mind, as Crow was clearly targeting Li Ming intentionally, and they were all used to it.

"Maybe it was suicide..." Costate conjectured, "It might not have wanted to fall into our hands, revealing the secrets of its body."

At this moment, a string of strange sound syllables, similar to the sounds when the Abyss Clan member died, echoed nearby.

Everyone was startled, looking over, only to find the sound was coming from Reynolds’ body.

"What are you doing?" Cedric couldn’t help but shout.

"I recorded it, does anyone understand it?" Reynolds asked.

"We know very little about the Shadow of the Eternal Abyss, originally considering this Abyss Clan member as a breakthrough." Costate sighed.

Meanwhile, Reynolds cheekily asked, "Is anyone interested in buying this recording?"

Buy?

Everyone was speechless, given their life levels, even if they didn’t understand its meaning, reproducing a few syllables should be simple, right? Correct content is on NovelFire)

Nobody paid him any attention, and Lancaster glanced at the surrounding mist, saying gravely, "Everyone, don’t forget, there’s still one Abyss Clan member here."
