This Magical Girl system didn't give any prompts, or rather... the intelligence and things that could prompt this thing were washed away by his negativity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, Wu Pifu felt that this slash should be very powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one slash, Wu Pifu immediately felt that the Shattering Vacuum Blade in his hand was getting heavier and heavier. At first, it felt like holding tens of tons of weight, and then the weight began to climb rapidly. He felt as if he were holding a solid pile of steel, then it was a small mountain, then it was a big mountain...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When this giant blade was about to slash at the wormhole area, its weight was so great that Wu Pifu's arms were exhausted and he couldn't bear it. And in his line of sight, something like flowing ripples appeared at the front of this giant blade, and wherever the ripples spread, everything seemed to vibrate and tear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time is short, and the slash was fast. Taking advantage of the tentacle being cut off and not yet healed, this big blade slashed straight at the junction of the tentacle, the indefinite thick fog, and the endless light spheres. With one slash, Wu Pifu's arms shattered at the same time, and a large piece of flesh and blood was broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And under this slash, the wormhole was cut into two segments, and then Wu Pifu saw the unimaginable scene on the other side of the wormhole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is a dream!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tentacle that had just extended from the wormhole, giant as a mountain, had its root on the other side of the wormhole. It was just a weak tentacle protrusion on another more giant tentacle, which might not even be one ten-thousandth of it. But this was not over yet. Behind that tentacle, which was ten thousand times more giant, was another tentacle, another tentacle that filled the sky, and this second tentacle, ten thousand times more giant, was just an insignificant tentacle protrusion on it. And behind it, there was another larger tentacle...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of infinite recursion, which seemed like iteration, made Wu Pifu feel a bit dizzy. And the effect of this slash was not over yet. The spatial ripples continued to spread downward, and the back of the wormhole turned into that apocalypse world, and then the apocalypse world was also slashed, turning into the peaceful world behind the apocalypse world, and then the peaceful world was also slashed, turning into a more illusory layer of thick fog world, a more illusory layer of apocalypse world, a more illusory layer of peaceful world...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu saw layers upon layers of illusion and more illusory, infinitely illusory superposition. And the people living in it, as the illusion fell, their images became more and more grotesque, more and more void. Only the flesh and blood mass born tentacles, indefinite thick fog, and endless light spheres were floating in it. They were constantly extracting something from the life forms living in this illusion, and then feeding back something. Wu Pifu didn't see it clearly for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the aftermath of the Shattering Vacuum Blade had reached the end, and the entire weapon had also begun to show cracks. Finally, Wu Pifu saw... [\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large number of maggots hatched and were born beside a pile of rotting flesh. The images of these maggots flickered incessantly—at one moment they were grotesque, illusory human shapes, at another they were human shapes living normal lives, and at another they were maggots crawling on rotting meat. They came from the rotting meat, and after being born, they crawled toward the endless sphere of light. In the process of crawling toward the endless sphere of light, their wriggling bodies began to burn. Before they could get close, they were burned into fly ash. This fly ash drifted into the air, turned into dense, thick fog, and was sucked into the amorphous, twisted thick fog. Finally, it turned into ashes again, fell from the thick fog onto the pile of rotting flesh, and the surface of the rotting flesh had countless twisted mouthparts that devoured the ashes, and then insect eggs were born from the rotting meat...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some kind of terrifying, incomprehensible, grotesque scene was reflected in Wu Pifu's eyes. It was like some kind of nightmare, yet also like some kind of fact that had truly occurred, or perhaps a metaphor with religious significance. But Wu Pifu did not know; he could not understand the scene he was seeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he saw the rotting flesh, the amorphous thick fog, and the endless sphere of light suddenly appear in three directions around him. A power higher than his current understanding descended, and his body began three types of changes: rotting plus turning into maggots, burning plus dissipating, twisting plus hiding...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at this moment, the Shattering Vacuum Blade finally exploded completely. The spatial ripples from its explosion enveloped Wu Pifu, and also enveloped Huang Rong, the three small animals, and the Golden Tree bonsai in the different-dimensional space below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under these ripples, the last scene in Wu Pifu's eyes was... three incomparably huge human skeletons sitting opposite each other. Beneath these three skeletons, which could be called as large as stars, were countless human skeletons entangled with each other, covering the feet of the three human skeletons in layers upon layers...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empty, dead silent, without a trace of human life, the entire world was a void, with only these three star-sized skeletons and countless human skeletons standing quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a booming sound, Wu Pifu landed in an empty and huge sealed room. The different-dimensional space followed closely behind. As soon as he touched the ground, Wu Pifu immediately began to retch. The flesh and blood on his body kept changing between rotting, maggots, burning, and twisting, but less than a second passed before these changes immediately became void. Then, within at most two or three seconds, not only did all the changes disappear, but the injuries brought about by these changes also disappeared completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for the negative emotions continuously surging within his sea of consciousness, which had corroded much of the essence of the \"tigers,\" Wu Pifu was actually completely unscathed, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, Wu Pifu stood up, and Huang Rong was already standing beside him, looking at him with a face full of worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Next time, unless I bark like a dog and spin in circles, don't come out.\" Wu Pifu took a deep breath and said to Huang Rong seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The worry on Huang Rong's face stiffened, and she chided, \"You really have a problem! Where is there such a powerful expert who barks like a dog and spins in circles every time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said this, Huang Rong laughed to herself, but after laughing, she was full of worry again: \"Brother Pifu, you just now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem, I think I probably know what the situation is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu shook his head, turned around, and looked toward this empty hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw that this hall was very strange—it was empty, without any decorations, furniture, or any machinery or creations. Only in the center of this room was there a patch of thick fog. The strange thing was that this thick fog neither spread nor changed; it just occupied an area of about thirty square meters in the center of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Wu Pifu looked at this mass of thick fog, Huang Rong also looked over curiously. Because there was nothing else in the room besides this thick fog, and Wu Pifu sensed no danger, he slowly walked toward the thick fog. Huang Rong followed closely behind. When the two walked to a distance of ten meters from the thick fog, suddenly a black shadow lashed out from the fog. Huang Rong immediately screamed and subconsciously retreated, while Wu Pifu raised his fist, ready to counterattack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this black shadow only appeared within the thick fog, appearing for an instant and dissipating for an instant. It also seemed as if light was flickering in the thick fog, but that too was only illusory. The thick fog remained thick fog, without any changes at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu was thoughtful. He looked at Huang Rong and said, \"Rong'er, follow me, and do not leave within five meters of me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Rong nodded immediately, and then she saw Wu Pifu take the three small animals onto his body, pick up the Golden Tree bonsai, and walk toward the only gate of this hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire gate was made of an unknown alloy. The two huge doors were at least twenty meters high, and just looking at the design, it was incomparably sturdy. Wu Pifu even suspected that this gate could withstand a nuclear explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this naturally could not stump him; he was terrifyingly strong now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Magical Girl enhancement had dissipated—it seemed related to that Shattering Vacuum Blade; once the Shattering Vacuum Blade shattered, the Magical Girl system immediately dissipated, and that black crystalline gemstone also became dim—it had clearly entered a cooldown period and would need one hundred and twenty hours before it could be used again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even without the Magical Girl enhancement, his strength was still far beyond what it was when the exploration mission began. The acquisition of Immortal Martial internal force had caused him to undergo a qualitative change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu stretched out his fist and pressed it against the metal gate, just about to exert force, when suddenly the gate opened slowly on its own. Wu Pifu's action remained unchanged, just holding his fist forward, until the gate was fully opened, and there was actually no one behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu narrowed his eyes, then without hesitation, he continued to stride out of the hall and walked toward the corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that corridor, there were many similar gates, but except for this one, the other gates were not as huge, indicating that the rooms behind them were not as huge either. Wu Pifu opened several gates in succession; as long as his palm touched them, the gates would open automatically. All the rooms inside these gates were completely empty—let alone thick fog, there wasn't even any dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire corridor and all the halls were completely empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Wu Pifu went deeper, he finally brought Huang Rong to the deepest part of this building, and also confirmed that this building was incomparably huge, covering at least tens of thousands of square kilometers, and even had things like ground tracks inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the deepest part of this building, which was presumably the central control room of this building, Wu Pifu saw a piece of technological creation and a central control console.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he walked to the front of the central control console, a light screen appeared directly in front of him. Huang Rong immediately pressed tightly behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A human whose appearance, height, and gender could not be seen appeared on the light screen, and the voice emitted was also a processed and synthesized electronic voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yo, representative of the New Era civilization, no need to look everywhere; we have already moved everything away. According to the prediction of SP-03, except for SP-02 which you arrived at and could not be moved... what a pity, SP-02 is very worthy of research; this thing could only be created by creative logical thinking...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu watched the light screen without saying a word. The human who left the message seemed to have sensed something, or perhaps knew something in advance. The previously incessant words paused, and then he seemed to bow deeply and said: \"Thank you, stranger, powerful one. Thank you for letting my ancestors find liberation... The reason I am not meeting you is not out of disdain or malice, but because plans cannot keep up with changes...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The time given for leaving a message for the real civilization of the current era was nine hundred years after your civilization was just noticed by the source of pollution. Now, your civilization has been noticed for one thousand four hundred years. Five hundred years have passed, and too many things have changed...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The entire Containment Civilization is left with only me, the last individual. There are too many sources, ancient overlord civilizations, or things on the pollution side that are tracking me, so the premise of being noticed by fewer than ten that was mentioned in the initial message must now be corrected... After all, as the last individual of the Containment Civilization, I cannot have any contact with any dangerous containment objects on a dangerous level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, containment objects are the special transcendent path of my civilization. They can transform and classify abstract, conceptual, polluted, or any other dangers sufficient to trigger casualties into containable procedures, divided into five levels. And the containment object I can contact now is a Level 1 harmless containment object.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, although Wu Pifu knew that the light screen in front of him was a recorded message, he still said speechlessly: \"Then... am I also a containment object??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person in the light screen seemed to have really heard Wu Pifu's voice. He nodded seriously and said: \"Yes, you, honorable envoy, are indeed a containment object. According to the standards of my Containment Civilization, although you are not yet a sublimated body, you are indeed the highest level, a Level 5 Endless Terror containment object. Its danger level exceeds many sources... After all, in your sea of consciousness, there exists a great, unspeakable terror!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu felt a chill in his heart. The infinite negative emotions within his sea of consciousness were a secret known only to a few people. He did not expect that the person who left this message would also know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person inside the light screen continued at this time: \"Based on the changes in these five hundred years, I have to correct the contact regulations with your civilization...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please send an envoy who is powerful enough to survive under the weakened attacks of a source, has the strength, has the ability, and is not noticed by even a single source-level entity. Only then will I show myself! Then I will share the many pieces of information known to the Containment Civilization with your civilization, and under the condition of obtaining sufficient promises and protection from your civilization, I will be able to share the special transcendent path of the Containment Civilization with your civilization. This is a civilization-level transcendent power sufficient to deal with almost all pollution!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, it is naturally impossible to let your civilization's honorable envoy make a wasted trip. SP-02, Containment Object: The Spiral Overture of Void and Dimensional Reduction, this is my apology to your civilization and your honorable envoy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally... honorable envoy, I think you are a bit too extreme...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, the human shape on the light screen dissipated. Wu Pifu revealed an indifferent expression and said: \"If you have the ability, stand in front of me and say that. What does it count for to hide online and say it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, there was no response to this. Instead, Huang Rong behind Wu Pifu whispered: \"Brother Pifu, I also think you are a bit too extreme...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu couldn't be bothered to pay attention. He was just about to look at the various buttons on the control console when suddenly, the entire light screen changed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"SP-02, The Spiral Overture of Void and Dimensional Reduction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Containment measures...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Wu Pifu had time to look at the text on the light screen, the main brain's voice sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exploration mission achieved, rewards being issued...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Judging... judgment complete, exploration degree of the Lost World reached ninety-nine percent, fifteen million points obtained...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Return to Gaia?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",2655,"2026-06-17T19:10:57.806Z","2026-06-18T03:30:09.135Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","2f27dba461ab95cc8c29a1ad2caf3bf3c75dba24d050581ed265bfa7ccdb3eed","eternal-nightmare-night-chapter-554","eternal-nightmare-night-chapter-552",602,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-nightmare-night-cover.jpg"]
