Night of Despair-Chapter 452 - 450 cases Situation Two

"I’m not sure, but it should be related to the environment here," Yu Hong was naturally not going to say that it was a special Fear Shadow that could only be summoned by the Spiritual Energy version of Tai Ling Skill.

After re-cultivating the Spiritual Energy Tai Ling Skill, it naturally also had a significant impact on the previously summoned Fear Shadow.

Since his realm of spiritual will had already reached the required level, there was no need to defeat a past fear again.

After all, these were things he had already directly overcome, and there was no longer any fear in his heart.

But it seemed to be due to the re-cultivation of Spiritual Energy.

The current Tai Ling Skill, where Spiritual Energy completely suppressed everything else, led to changes in the summoned Fear Shadow.

"There is obvious Spiritual Ability Radiation on her...this, it’s somewhat similar to the local Spirit Disaster Monsters...." Ku Chan also noticed some details and was surprised.

"Let’s use it to impersonate a Spirit Disaster Monster and give it a try," Yu Hong said with a smile.

Immediately, he controlled the summoned Speed Man, flashing towards the North Heavenly Gate, approaching silently.

Above the Cloud Sea, in the vast expanse of white.

Speed Man quickly crossed the vast white area and arrived before the Level Nine White Jade Stairs.

Swoosh.

In another flash, she crossed the stairs and arrived in front of the gate.

The enormous North Heavenly Gate, compared to Speed Man, was like the gateway of Giant Country, with just the width of the doorframe being at least fifty meters.

Swoosh.

Another flash.

Speed Man crossed the door frame, like a sesame seed, directly entering through the gate.

Then, she stood still.

One second...

Two seconds...

Five seconds...

One minute!

"She’s fine!!" Yu Hong finally confirmed that the Fear Shadow he had summoned was indeed fine and could move freely inside the North Heavenly Gate.

Ku Chan and Yiyi also sighed with relief on the side.

"Next, let’s return once to check," Yu Hong carefully controlled Speed Man to move back.

This time, it was even smoother.

Soon, Speed Man returned directly next to the safe house but was blocked from entering by the external Array.

Click.

Yu Hong opened a small gap.

Allowing her to float inside.

"I’ll go into seclusion to examine her situation, if it’s completely safe, next I’ll start a large scale search inside the North Heavenly Gate with Fear Shadow. Don’t call me unless it’s urgent," Yu Hong said, taking Speed Man Fear Shadow back to the Main Control Room.

Bang.

The door closed.

He turned around, watching Speed Man who had floated to the center of the room.

’Stay still.’

He issued the command.

Then, he walked around Speed Man.

’Take off your clothes.’ he ordered.

No response.

Speed Man remained motionless.

Sighing, Yu Hong had no choice but to do it himself.

He approached and carefully observed Speed Man.

This was his first time studying a Fear Shadow so closely. The essence of a Fear Shadow is a tangible form of his most feared memory.

Essentially, it was an energy phantom reconstructed from his memory.

He reached out and touched Speed Man’s hair.

The feel was very real, indistinguishable from real human hair. Fine, cold, somewhat hard.

Then, following the hair, he touched the face hidden beneath the hair.

’...uh.’ Yu Hong furrowed his brow, surprisingly feeling no facial contours.

It was still just the feel of hair.

The sensation behind the hair felt like a wall, hard and smooth. There was no nose, no eyes, etc.

He retracted his hand, then pinched Speed Man’s white skirt on the shoulder.

The material felt was not at all like the chiffon of a skirt but more akin to the firm and cold texture of flesh and blood.

’Indeed... This thing isn’t the real Speed Man, nor a real Black Disaster Evil Shadow, but just a model I imagined, though its intelligence level is somewhat high. But the skirt and body are actually sculpted together, just like a piece of wood carved with a skirt and hair, etc.’

Yu Hong immediately understood the composition of Fear Shadow and realized why it was safe for Fear Shadow to go out, while Agrius was not.

’Thinking about it, I’d rather explore those Black Disaster Monsters, to discover what their essence actually is... So many Speed Man look the same... I wonder what’s underneath the hair?’ Yu Hong’s thoughts unintentionally drifted.

However, he shifted his train of thought.

’I’m currently deep in the Spirit Disaster, it’s a good opportunity to capture some Spirit Disaster Monsters, to thoroughly research what their nature is...’

To be honest, he had been coveting the Golden Armor of the Three-Eyed Dragon Head General for a long time. He had never had such powerful protective armor, and the Protective Suit had long been unable to keep up with the intensity.

And using Black Mark to enhance equipment alone was too extravagant.

Thus, finding a ready-made solution outside had become a new idea in his mind.

Coming back to his senses, Yu Hong stepped forward, grabbed Speed Man Fear Shadow’s neck with one hand, and flipped her upside down.

Head down, legs up.

But even so, the skirt continued floating upwards, stubbornly maintaining its previous form against the laws of physics.

Yu Hong tugged on the skirt and peeked inside the turned skirt.

The inside was gray and white, filled with a gelatinous material similar to flesh.

’As expected!’ After confirming that there were no injuries on Fear Shadow, he returned to the first floor.

This time, he did not control Fear Shadow to move, but moved the safe house towards the North Heavenly Gate.

Because Fear Shadow has a summoning range, moving cannot be too far from the main body, Yu Hong’s situation was special since his Guanwu Skill was cultivated to an unparalleled level. This limit was greatly improved.

But it’s only the range that has greatly increased.

"Now, my control range for Fear Shadow is about two kilometers, beyond which the Fear Shadow will dissipate on its own. So.... let’s get closer first and then probe this distance."

The three of them gathered at the window, crowding to look outside.

Yu Hong softly explained at this point.

"Can exploration share perception?" Ku Chan asked.

"No, Fear Shadow is essentially a combat skill, sharing perception instead reduces the summoner’s reaction speed." Yu Hong slightly shook his head. "It’s okay, I’ll just summon several more."

He happens to have the trait of Extreme Summoning.

This was the trait he had obtained back then after his experience at Qingchen Temple’s Wooden Fish Five Spirit Spring.

It allows arbitrary adjustment to the Technique under the Guanwu Skill Daoist system in summoning, allowing multiple summons.

But a normal Guanwu Skill cultivator can only follow the usual steps, defeating several Fear Shadows, thus they can summon only as many, one of each kind.

But Yu Hong is different.

"The most suitable Fear Shadow here is Speed Man. Most forms of Spirit Disaster are humanoid, and changing to another form might attract attention. It could mess things up if other Spirit Disasters are encountered."

Yu Hong said softly.

"So...."

He opened his hand, and some strands of white light quietly rose in his palm.

Pfft.

In an instant, his hands swiftly formed seals, his mouth chanting scriptures.

The white light strands in his palm rapidly soared, weaving into ancient white symbols.

At the same time, outside the safe house, the figures of Speed Men kept appearing, more and more, becoming denser.

In a blink, the number exceeded two digits, bursting towards three digits.

Yu Hong’s expression unchanged, continued summoning endlessly.

Soon, after just over ten seconds.

The Speed Men outside had increased to a number that completely surrounded the safe house.

’Go.’ He commanded in his mind, ’Find the owner of this scent.’

At the same time, he transmitted Quan He’s scent traits into the Technique inside all the Fear Shadows.

These Fear Shadows themselves only possessed extremely simple intelligence, couldn’t communicate, couldn’t speak, and he wasn’t sure if this would work.

But at the very least, there’s strength in numbers; nearly two hundred Speed Men going out should surely find something and bring it back.

Ku Chan and Yiyi, on seeing him summon so many all at once, were astounded.

"Why... are they all female!? " Yiyi blurted out.

"...." Ku Chan wordlessly glanced at her and voluntarily distanced himself from Yiyi.

He feared Yu Hong might misunderstand.

After all, he has a wife and children.

Foll𝑜w current novℯls on ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm.

Thinking of his wife and unborn child, a trace of tenderness involuntarily flashed across his face.

Following Yu Hong, he actually harbored a trace of hope, a desire to resurrect his wife and child.

After all, the miracles created by Yu Hong were somewhat numerous.

The search by the Fear Shadow Speed Men began, and Yu Hong started a timer from the beginning.

With his current strength in Spiritual Energy and unlimited Inner Strength, basically, he could support the Fear Shadows’ unrestricted movement.

One hour passed, the Speed Men disappeared inside the North Heavenly Gate, still without any movement.

Two hours passed...

Yiyi, feeling sleepy, leaned against the fireplace and fell asleep.

"I’ll go cultivate, just call me if needed." Ku Chan stood up, addressed Yu Hong.

The latter waved his hand, silent. He continued to concentrate on sensing the feedback from the Fear Shadows.

Ku Chan sighed, turned, and returned to his own quarters.

His current accommodation was one of the two rooms partitioned in the underground Cultivation Room.

He and Yiyi each had a bedroom; Yu Hong usually stayed in the Main Control Room.

The first floor was entirely used for meetings, discussions, and usual activities, essentially a hall.

The size of the entire safe house was somewhat cramped for three people.

Ku Chan returned to his room, closed the stone door he had fashioned with his hands.

Then he carefully reached under the bed and pulled out an iron box, opening it.

Inside was an assortment of irregular pieces of tissue soaked in Potion. Each piece of tissue was stored in a high-strength glass bottle, with meticulous labels: Father, Mother, Wife, Child, Elder Martial Brother, Second Martial Uncle...

About a dozen small bottles contained tissue samples from all the closest people at Zihe Palace that Ku Chan had collected.

He hoped that one day, he might find powerful enough Magic to bring them back to life.

"The Alliance Hierarch is always mysterious but always finds a way in critical moments, providing hope, indeed, I made the right choice following him.... Dad, Mom, Senior Martial Sister, I’m now with the Alliance Hierarch deep within the Spirit Disaster, here to save a powerful senior who is very important to us. Also, only by continuously hunting down strong enough prey can the Red Food Method bestowed by the Alliance Hierarch be improved quickly. Perhaps, within a hundred years, I might really find a way to save you."

Ku Chan softly brought his face close to the bottles, closed his eyes, and the familiar faces of his loved ones appeared in his mind.

That was his only motivation for his frantic cultivation and fighting, and what kept him from becoming a madman who only knows how to kill.

"Don’t worry.... in this world, only the Alliance Hierarch keeps moving forward, he won’t give up, always full of hope, maybe it won’t be long...."

His voice gradually faded away.

Ku Chan rarely refrained from cultivation, just like that, his face lying on a pile of bottles, he fell asleep.

The enhanced safe house was very secure, very quiet.

Unconsciously, a pair of tear stains slid from the corners of his closed eyes, dropping between many bottles.

He had nothing else, his only hope was to follow Yu Hong, to find a future where he could resurrect his family.

He had seen the Night Pool, seen the Spirit Disaster, Ku Chan didn’t believe in the Source Disaster, only believed in Yu Hong who constantly created miracles.

Because he always had the most suitable and needed items at critical moments, creating miracles.

Like the rescue of Quan He, everyone never thought to venture deep into the Spirit Disaster, trying to rescue Quan He.

Only the Alliance Hierarch thought of it....

And the boat, that ship before, mysteriously and silently brought out, in one fell swoop moved all the people of Hope City to the New World.

And the Red Food Method... was the same...

He himself had despaired, planned to fight to the death and then self-destruct, not wanting to suffer the consequences and die.

But then Yu Hong brought out the Red Food Method, which could delay the sequelae for another hundred years....
