Chapter 519: Anomaly

When a madman gains a sliver of rationality, it is like a man about to die of thirst receiving a mouthful of sweet spring water.

Aaron deeply understood the meaning of this proverb at this moment.

No matter how powerful an Extraordinary's mind is, when they are about to fall into the abyss of madness, they are still a pathetic wretch!

After saying this, he said no more, quietly watching the "King of Shadows" slide once again into the abyss of madness.

"Mother of Night... I do not know... why He went mad!"

"Please..."

"Give me a little more rationality..."

But he discovered that the teleportation of the "Spirit World Shadow" had lost its effect.

The painful expression on the largest pale mask gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of relief: "Thank you..."

The monster, having completely lost control, struggled pleadingly, and a pair of pitch-black hands reached out, like a beggar begging for alms.

Aaron muttered to himself, having gained a slight epiphany.

However, at this moment, the feeling this palm gave one was withered and aged, bearing deep wrinkles.

Aaron sneered, and light suddenly bloomed in his pupils.

The Weird girl pulled his palm directly, causing the two figures to merge into one.

Above the ground, countless complex Ritual Arrays flickered with luster, and a dazzling light emerged.

They were constantly walking toward the depths of the plain... Aaron could not see the scene beyond the horizon, but intuitively felt that it was the end of everything.

"Could it be that we are being dragged along to be buried with this world?"

"I saw... the decay of the world?"

"Knowing the truth means danger!"

Snap!

Aaron snapped his fingers directly.

The place where he stood was no longer a subterranean karst cave, but a corrupted plain.

They were like earthworms, their mouthparts filled with inward-spiraling serrations.

"Is this... the Spirit World?"

——Secret Source Power!

——Purification!

Before the Black Swamp swept over, his figure happened to disappear from this place.

Seeing that after stopping the use of the Talismans, the blue-black mark on his palm became rich in color again, emitting wisps of cold aura.

Inside the subterranean karst cave.

The lady in the red dress did not live up to his expectations and arrived as promised!

In the gray, misty fog, headless blue-black giants, giant eight-legged turtles, bone creatures like small hills...

"Are the rituals of exorcism and binding useless?"

"It seems you are truly unaware..."

The next moment, a small hand was stuffed into his hand, followed by the sensation of warmth and fragrance in his arms.

The girl no longer had her previous soft beauty, appearing only ugly and ferocious; her withered, cracked lips moved, but this time, Aaron understood what she said: "This is neither the Spirit World nor the Mortal World!"

The girl's palm also became like shackles, locking him firmly!

"Weird... what exactly are they?"

A Crown having lost all dignity, that is just how it is.

"Is this... the core of the world? The deepest part of the Subconscious Ocean?"

They are—"Primordial Worms"!

That swamp breeding countless black mud is the "Black Swamp", is the "Rancher"!

"Sure enough... the 'Rancher' is the 'Black Swamp'! Formed from the residue left after the Scarlet sun was stripped away!"

As a gentleman, waiting in advance is a display of politeness!

"Preparing some surprises is also a requirement of etiquette."

"World..."

Subsequently, the Destruction effect was activated, and countless shadows began to collapse...

The light illuminated the darkness and also illuminated that lady.

After finishing, he found a clean place and began Meditation.

This was a legacy trait belonging to the "King of Shadows", but for the current Aaron, it was better than nothing.

For Aaron, who was already a perfect body, this was simply an incredible thing.

The power of the Ritual fell upon the girl, causing her red dress to flap loudly, but other than that... it had no effect.

When his vision recovered, he saw a different scene.

Two days passed quickly.

"Although I only prayed to the 'Spirit of Delusion'..."

Aaron looked at the approaching girl in the red dress, almost wanting to use "Secret Source Power" to completely resolve this hidden danger.

A hem of bright red clothing suddenly appeared there.

Instead, he drew the "Sword in the Stone", held it upright in front of him, parallel to his forehead, and then thrust it forward!

Pfft!

The "Sword in the Stone" accurately struck the writhing dark monster.

Clusters of vibrant mandala flowers bloomed continuously, only to wither away one after another...

Then... he bestowed upon them the 'Misfortune of Accident' from across the void!

In this crisis-ridden doomsday, this bit of misfortune was already enough to make them die in an incomparably miserable way!

Aaron was too lazy to divine and hunt them down one by one, so he walked around the cave and found several key items for divination.

But after thinking about it, he still trusted his divinatory intuition, gritted his teeth, and reached out his hand.

That Weird girl seemed to have brought him directly into the depths of the Spirit World.

He turned his head and saw a half-rotted face.

"After killing the 'King of Shadows' and Lamajie, there are three Captains left in the bandit group... these are three other non-humans, they cannot be let go."

Aaron looked around, preparing to see where it was suitable to set up traps, such as a Ritual whose effects were prepared in advance and only triggered when the heroine arrived...

He saw that she was beautiful, with lips like cherries, her expression urgent, constantly murmuring gibberish that no one could hear clearly.

Aaron sighed: "Then... out of respect for your previous righteous act, let me grant you release."

"But it is both the Spirit World and the Mortal World!"

However, just at this moment, he saw black sludge surging from afar.

Whoosh!

Countless darkness vanished like flowing water, leaving behind half a pale mask on the spot.

Their only characteristic was being incomplete...

Aaron wanted to pull his palm away and leave this place.

He muttered to himself.

He glanced at his palm again.

As soon as this thought emerged, Aaron suddenly realized that his hand was still holding another hand.

He muttered, his inspiration suddenly stirred, and he looked toward the shadows of the cave.

To show respect, he did not directly use the 'Furnace Fire' to burn the 'King of Shadows' to death.

He wanted to actively wait for that lady in the red dress to appear!

Aaron opened his eyes and looked at his palm, only to see that the cyan-black mark on it had vanished without a trace!

From within the foul-smelling sludge, countless worms suddenly crawled out!

After completing all this, Aaron looked at the chaotic karst cave and couldn't help but nod: "It is indeed a quiet place."

At the same time, he began to divine key information such as the appearances and birthdays of these people.

Aaron's vision went black, as if falling into a bottomless Abyss.

Pain and ferocity appeared on all five of its masks.

He muttered to himself.

"That woman in red... the Weird... is actually... a distorted and polluted entity of the world's will? Or perhaps... all Weird are like this!"
