God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

The evil spirit's laughter hadn't yet faded when its festering body suddenly swelled. Black mist surged again, thicker than before, nearly obscuring the moonlight in the narrow alley. The wound on its chest healed at a visible speed, even the back of its neck, previously stabbed by Chu Feng, was intact.

"It...it has become stronger again!" There was a hint of trembling in Pan Yue's voice. He held the talisman tightly in his hand, his face pale.

Lin Yao clutched her chest; the previous attack had drained her of energy. She gritted her teeth, enduring the pain, her eyes still determined: "Don't be afraid, we can still fight!"

The evil spirit was faster than before, and its power even more terrifying. It brandished its sharp claws, stirring up gusts of bloody wind, as if it wanted to tear everything apart. Chu Feng, Pan Yue, and Lin Yao stood back to back, forming a triangle formation, barely fending off the evil spirit's attacks.

Chu Feng's eyes were incredibly focused. He watched the evil spirit's movements closely, trying to find its flaws. He discovered that although the evil spirit's strength and speed had increased, its attack patterns still had some regularity. Before each attack, there would be a brief pause, and this pause was their opportunity.

"Pan Yue, use your talisman to restrict its movements!" Chu Feng shouted.

Pan Yue reacted immediately. He quickly chanted an incantation, and the talisman in his hand transformed into a golden light, shooting towards the evil spirit. The golden light wrapped around the evil spirit, and although it couldn't completely restrict its movements, it did slow it down slightly.

Seizing this opportunity, Lin Yao thrust out the twin blades like lightning, striking the evil spirit in the chest once again. However, this time, the evil spirit only took a few steps back and wasn't seriously hurt. The black mist surrounding it acted like a solid layer of armor, blocking most of the attack.

"Damn it!" Lin Yao cursed under her breath.

At this moment, the evil spirit suddenly turned towards Chu Feng, and its sharp claws went straight for his throat. Chu Feng had no time to dodge and could only watch the claws approach.

"Chu Feng!" Lin Yao exclaimed, and she stood in front of Chu Feng without hesitation.

The sharp claws tore through Lin Yao's clothes, leaving a deep wound on her arm that was visible to the bone. Blood instantly dyed her arm red.

"Lin Yao!" Chu Feng's eyes were bloodshot. He held Lin Yao tightly, his heart filled with guilt and anger.

"I'm fine..." Lin Yao endured the pain and forced a smile, "You...must be careful..."

Lin Yao's injury completely ignited Chu Feng's fighting spirit. His eyes burned with rage, and an unprecedented power surged through him. He gripped the exorcist dagger tightly in his hand, his eyes fixed on the evil spirit.

"You... deserve to die!" Chu Feng's voice was low and hoarse, like a demon from hell.

He stood up suddenly, and the exorcism dagger in his hand flashed with a strange light... "This is..." Pan Yue looked at the dagger in Chu Feng's hand, his eyes widened in astonishment.

The exorcist dagger shone with a faint blue light, and the inscription on the dagger seemed to come alive, slowly flowing. A strange energy flowed from the dagger into Chu Feng's body, flowing through his limbs and bones. He felt an unprecedented power filling his body, filling him with confidence.

"Is this... the 'Condensation of Light' recorded in the Night's Watch's legacy?!" Pan Yue exclaimed, his eyes filled with disbelief. Condensation of Light is a skill only high-ranking Night's Watch members have the opportunity to master. It condenses one's own strength into tangible energy, significantly increasing both attack and defense.

Chu Feng himself was surprised. He had never thought that he could comprehend such a powerful skill in such a critical moment. But he didn't have time to think too much. The evil spirit in front of him was still a huge threat.

He took a deep breath and poured all the energy surging in his body into the exorcist dagger. The dagger's faint blue light became even more dazzling, like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed, emitting a chilling edge.

"Go to hell!" Chu Feng roared, and rushed towards the evil spirit like lightning.

The evil spirit seemed to sense the powerful aura emanating from Chu Feng. It let out a sharp roar and waved its claws, trying to stop Chu Feng from approaching.

However, Chu Feng was no longer the same person he had been before. He nimbly dodged the evil spirit's attack and fiercely stabbed the evil spirit's chest with the exorcist dagger in his hand, carrying the power of condensed light.

"Pfft!"

With a muffled sound, the exorcist's dagger pierced the evil spirit's defenses as easily as cutting tofu. A faint blue light exploded within the evil spirit's body, completely dispelling the black mist within it.

The evil spirit let out a shrill scream, and its body began to tremble violently. Black liquid continued to flow out of the wound, emitting a disgusting stench.

Chu Feng didn't hesitate at all. He waved the exorcism dagger again and continuously attacked the evil spirit's vital points.

The evil spirit retreated step by step, its wounds growing more and more, and black liquid flowed all over the ground. Its eyes were filled with fear, and its previous arrogance and arrogance were gone.

Lin Yao and Pan Yue were stunned by the scene before them. They had never expected that Chu Feng could master Ningguang in such a short time and force the evil spirit into a desperate situation.

"Chu Feng, you..." Lin Yao looked at Chu Feng, her eyes full of admiration and gratitude.

"Are you okay?" Chu Feng turned to look at Lin Yao and asked with concern.

Lin Yao shook her head and forced a smile: "I'm fine, you continue to fight!"

Chu Feng nodded and focused his attention on the evil spirit again. He knew that now was not the time to let down his guard.

He took a deep breath and prepared to deal the final blow to the evil spirit.

However, at this moment, something changed suddenly.

The evil spirit, which was originally dying, suddenly let out a deafening roar, and the black mist on its body surged again, thicker than before, almost shrouding the entire alley in darkness.

"Not good!" Captain Zhang's voice suddenly rang out, "It's going to..."

Captain Zhang's voice abruptly stopped as he watched the dying Wang Xieling suddenly swell. The black mist no longer simply surged, but swirled violently like a boiling pot of oil. A suffocating sense of oppression permeated the air. The surrounding space began to distort, and the alleyway walls seemed to have become a crumpled painting, twisted and deformed, losing their original shape.

"The power of space?!" Pan Yue exclaimed. He recognized the essence of this power. "The evil spirit can actually control space!"

Manipulating space was an extremely rare and powerful ability, rarely mastered even by experienced Night Watchmen. And now, a rudimentary evil spirit had actually demonstrated this ability, leaving them incredibly shocked and horrified.

In the twisted space, Chu Feng felt dizzy, as if he were in a huge whirlpool, and his sense of direction was completely lost. He tried to steady himself, but found that his originally light body had become extremely heavy, and every step was like walking in a quagmire.

Lin Yao's condition was not much better. She was pale and breathing rapidly, obviously affected by the spatial distortion.

"Everyone be careful!" Captain Zhang's voice seemed a little distorted in the distorted space. "This space will suppress our power, but the evil spirits can draw energy from it!"

Just as Captain Zhang had said, Wang Xieling was unusually active in the distorted space. The black mist surrounding him grew thicker, and his once-weakened aura gradually gained strength. He let out a sharp roar, and the distorted space seemed to tremble with his voice.

Chu Feng gritted his teeth and tried hard to resist the suppression of space. He poured the remaining power of condensed light in his body into the exorcism dagger. The dark blue light seemed particularly dazzling in the distorted space.

"We can't let it continue to recover its strength!" Chu Feng growled, and his figure rushed towards Wang Xieling like a flash of lightning.

However, the distorted space severely restricted his movements. His speed was much slower than before, and the trajectory of his attacks became unpredictable.

Wang Xieling seemed to have anticipated Chu Feng's attack. It let out a sinister laugh and twisted its body strangely to avoid Chu Feng's attack.

"It's useless! In this space, I am the master!" Wang Xieling's voice was filled with pride and ridicule. "Your power will be suppressed, and my power will be infinitely enhanced!"

Chu Feng ignored Wang Xieling's provocation. He continued to attack, trying again and again to break through Wang Xieling's defense.

However, Wang Xieling was like a ghost in the distorted space, floating around unpredictably, and Chu Feng's attacks missed again and again.

What's worse is that as time goes by, Wang Xieling's strength continues to recover, and its attacks become more fierce. Chu Feng and others gradually fall into a passive defensive situation.

Lin Yao and Pan Yue also joined the battle, but their attacks were also suppressed by the space, making it difficult to cause substantial damage to Wang Xieling.

"We can't go on like this!" Pan Yue said anxiously while dodging Wang Xieling's attacks, "We must find a way to break through this space!"

Chu Feng also realized the seriousness of the problem, but he had no idea what to do and could only fight on instinct.

Suddenly, he felt a powerful force emanating from Wang Xieling, and the distorted space shook violently, as if it would collapse at any time.

"It wants..." Chu Feng's face suddenly changed and he looked at Wang Xieling fiercely.

Wang Xieling let out a deafening roar, and the black mist on his body erupted like a volcano, submerging the entire alley in darkness... "It is about to release even more powerful power!"
