Let’s use them all now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only hoped to draw a few usable abilities—even one-time-use ones would do—to boost his combat power before the coming battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not recommended. This system is incompatible with the void. You might end up drawing nothing but B-grade Ding Ni.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I fucking—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re blatantly lying to me now—! This wasn’t mentioned in the initial description!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qingfeng, furious, erupted into curses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So… still drawing? (pouting)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At least tell me why.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excessively high ethereal concentration imposes certain restrictions on the system. In short—the system’s core remains unaffected, but I am, after all, merely an advanced AI program, and thus highly vulnerable to ethereal interference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...” Ye Qingfeng was stunned. What the hell was that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ohhh—simply put, think of all system functions as a human body, and me~ as the human soul. I can exist without a body, but the body cannot exist without me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, many functions become unusable. That’s it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn! Can I still exchange for weapons?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The approaching ethereal Hai  made Ye Qingfeng’s scalp tingle; he asked, clinging to his last hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exchange for every high-damage weapon you’ve got!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eighteen ethereal-concentrated shells and one shell launcher have been stored in your inventory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shells? With these, I’m no longer worried!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qingfeng leaped backward several times, found a high vantage point, pulled out the launcher, loaded a shell, and stared at the approaching ethereal Hai  with gleeful excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All fear stems from insufficient vitality!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He aimed squarely at the ethereal Hai  and pulled the trigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deafening shriek, the shell tore through the sky, leaving a blazing red trail; the instant it struck the ground, the earth surged upward in a tidal wave of heat, and the blast wave carried debris from the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethereal Hai  within a hundred meters were flung skyward like severed puppets, dissolving into ethereal particles before they even hit the ground. A rolling mushroom cloud rose from the epicenter, orange-red flames greedily devouring everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awesome—! Awesome!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qingfeng reloaded swiftly, aimed, and fired again, repeating the process with a wild, grotesque expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After eighteen consecutive explosions, Ye Qingfeng rummaged through his inventory for ages but found no shells left—he realized he’d fired them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hollow emptiness washed over him—he hadn’t gotten nearly enough satisfaction...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He twisted his stiff shoulders, casually stowed the launcher, and scanned the thick fog. The once-swarming ethereal Hai  were now reduced to less than one in ten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The low-level ethereal Hai  posed no threat to him; even the Level 3 ones were half-dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much has the ethereal concentration dropped?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qingfeng looked ahead—the towering figures slowly advanced, step by step, utterly indifferent to the violent explosions moments ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had some effect, but not much. Higher ethereal concentration makes ethereal Hai  more active, and their activity further raises ethereal vitality within the void, causing the void to expand further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For ordinary void expansion, this level of destruction is sufficient. But unless you eliminate those few high-level ethereal Hai , the ethereal concentration won’t drop significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, by the way, to prevent any confusion about the underlying logic, let me explain simply:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethereal Hai  are generally formed when ethereal Hai  infect and transform living beings. Because you used the Void Stabilization Scroll decisively, few were caught in it, so you needn’t worry for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But high-concentration ethereal matter spawns higher-grade ethereal Hai . If you don’t eliminate those few high-level ones quickly, you’ll be dragged into a prolonged battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your chances of victory will dwindle further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So now isn’t the time to conserve energy—I must kill those high-level ethereal Hai  as soon as possible?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Correct!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tch. What a pain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qingfeng took a deep breath, spread his arms wide, and as his will directed, ethereal energy flowed toward him in an endless stream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His only advantage now: an inexhaustible supply of ethereal power!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ethereal concentration in the area surged visibly; purple matter clung to his body, strands of black hair stood on end, radiating intense suffocation and oppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, outside the void.\u003C\u002Fp>",939,"2026-06-20T20:13:18.411Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","22d7d93677c8ac77a1e2d2e55c04536ae094d9dd2f9dcc8cdac00f9d9f7b0a47","love-life-begins-in-new-eliad-chapter-275","love-life-begins-in-new-eliad-chapter-273",280,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flove-life-begins-in-new-eliad-cover.jpg"]
