235: Chapter 234 The Unique Sequence, Complete!

The giant vortex in the sky dissipated.

The blood-red circular phantom standing below, which seemed to be formed by countless tangled tumors, turned into specks of red light.

The tens of meters of rock and soil layers instantly vanished.

This pillar of light piercing through the clouds seemed to possess infinite power, and all obstacles were completely erased into nothingness.

Everything in the outside world fell into a silent, frozen state; it seemed as if time and space were locked at this moment, and everything around lost its luster, turning gray and white.

Sound vanished.

Color faded away.

The scene froze.

Only Chu Xuan, tens of meters deep underground, remained, enveloped within the pillar of light, as if at this moment, he had become the only one in the world.

And the System's notification tone was as mechanical and cold as ever.

"A perished Legacy, a severed path, a vanished past, a future without an end."

"You have become the only one remaining in the world; the world is recovering because of you, and the sleeping consciousness is awakening..."

"The world has seen you!"

"Detected that you have been baptized by the Fire of Nirvana. Your base attributes can reach the extreme limit, meaning each level in the current Rank can provide an additional 30% attribute boost. Your current personal level is 5, and each attribute can be increased to 65 points. The world bestows great power upon you."

In an instant, it felt as if endless power was surging within his body, causing the blood in Chu Xuan's entire body to circulate with crazy acceleration. His bones grew, his muscles expanded, and his eyes became increasingly bright.

The four attributes of stamina, strength, agility, and spirit grew explosively, climbing again from the original 60 points until they stopped at 65 points.

"Nirvana, Rebirth, Slaughter, Glory."

"The world grants you authority; you shall purge for the world..."

"You have obtained the Purifier exclusive skill 'Fire of Nirvana'."

"Fire of Nirvana: LV.5.

Skill Description: You need to consume spirituality value, with a maximum consumption of 5 points per second, to imbue your attacks with the Fire of Nirvana. This deals an additional 50% of your attack as true damage to the burned target, and this true damage is no less than 5 times the spirituality value you consume per second.

The burned target will suffer intense pain in both body and Soul, and when taking damage, an equal amount of spirituality will be burned and absorbed by you; when the target completely loses its spirituality, the damage dealt by the Fire of Nirvana doubles; when the target dies, the target's spirituality value will be instantly burned away.

Note: When a Strange Creatures is burned by the Fire of Nirvana, the pain suffered increases to 1000%."

After seeing the description of this skill, Chu Xuan immediately understood why he was able to receive feedback of spirituality value when Tang Zheng and He Jun were burned by the flames.

He also understood why the Phantom Demon's screams were so painful when he himself was undergoing the baptism of the Fire of Nirvana.

This skill didn't have anything special, just one point: the stronger one's own base strength, the more damage one deals, and thus the greater the additional true damage from the Fire of Nirvana, especially against Strange Creaturess, which it suppresses significantly.

And even if his attacks could not take effect for some reason, the Fire of Nirvana could still deal damage equal to 5 times the spirituality value consumed per second.

In other words, when Chu Xuan used the Fire of Nirvana, even at the lowest efficiency of consuming only 1 point per second, and then lightly touching the target, he could still deal 5 points of true damage.

Although this increased the demand for spirituality value, its ability to burn and absorb the target's spirituality value greatly compensated for this shortcoming.

Furthermore, if his base strength was sufficient to kill in one hit, then it would be equivalent to clearing out all of the target's spirituality value, just like what happened with He Jun earlier.

At this point, the System's notifications were not yet over.

"You have obtained the Purifier exclusive skill 'Forbidden Darkness'."

"Forbidden Darkness: LV. MAX. Your resistance to the invasion and interference of any The Gloom aura is increased by 10000%."

When this skill appeared, Chu Xuan realized that in his confrontation with the Specter, his greatest disadvantage no longer existed.

"You have obtained the Purifier exclusive skill 'Eye of Insight'."

"Eye of Insight LV. MAX:

Skill Description: You can inspect any life form by consuming spirituality value. The inspection content includes, but is not limited to, life signs, race, Rank, base attributes, various skills, etc.

Note: Each use consumes at least 1 point of spirituality value; the more spirituality value you consume, the more detailed the inspected information will be. The difficulty of inspection depends on the difference between the target's Rank, level, and spirit attribute compared to yours."

With the appearance of these three exclusive skills, Chu Xuan finally felt that all his hard work had not been in vain.

For days, he had plotted with [Future Tang Zheng], being careful everywhere, walking on thin ice, just to deceive the Phantom Demon. Now, after racking his brains, he finally saw the results, and all his efforts had been worth it.

And just at this moment, the System notification appeared again.

"The world has noticed the existence of an alien life form within your body, judging..."

"Judgment complete."

"Forced erasure!"

With the appearance of this System notification, the Phantom Demon, which had already lost its voice, suddenly screamed: "Save me! Final Phantom God, save me! I am your most devout believer, I am the pioneer of divine light. I have already resided within a human; I should not be erased by the rules..."

Chu Xuan was slightly surprised.

This Phantom Demon was actually not dead yet.

He remembered that when he burned it with the Fire of Nirvana, he had absorbed nearly 1000 points of spirituality value.

Every time he heard its voice, he felt it had already died; he didn't expect it to still be alive.

Just as he was pondering, the System notification box in Chu Xuan's line of sight suddenly paused, flickering repeatedly as if dropping frames, then immediately turned into an eerie blood color, followed by scarlet characters appearing, occupying his entire field of vision.

"Pioneer that does not exist in this world, cannot be erased! Warning: Detected that a perished Legacy has been restarted and received additional enhancement. The severed path cannot be continued...

Judging...

Judgment complete!

This Purifier has violated the rules, forced erasure!"

When these scarlet characters appeared, Chu Xuan instantly recalled the day he first arrived at the dormitory corridor; when he received his first System task, he was also judged to have violated the rules and was to be subjected to forced erasure.

And now, this situation had appeared again.

"Hahahaha! I'm not dead?!"

The Phantom Demon laughed loudly: "So what if you are a Purifier? The desolate world will eventually head towards extinction, and the only remaining path should have been completely severed. To the great Final Phantom God, even if this dilapidated world were to recover its former strength, it would still be as small as dust, to be extinguished with a wave of a hand, insignificant! Die, hurry up and die! Erase your consciousness, and I will take over your body..."

Before the Phantom Demon finished speaking, the scarlet characters suddenly faded, turning back into the original light blue.

"Starting correction..."

"Correcting..."

"Correction complete!"

"Granting the Purifier a new authority 'Nirvana Stripping': You can invoke the Fire of Nirvana to strip away and incinerate the abnormal existence within a target without harming the living body."

With the appearance of this System notification, Chu Xuan felt something in his heart. He instinctively reached out his right hand, and saw Black Flame rising from his palm. He slightly curled his five fingers into a claw and suddenly grabbed and pulled towards the top of his head.

The next instant, an anthropomorphic face appeared within the Black Flame in his palm, wearing an expression of terror.

"No... how was I stripped away... how is this possible?"

The face let out a shrill wail and scream: "No! My friend, I was wrong, please don't kill me. Let me find a new vessel; from now on, I am willing to acknowledge you as my master. You are the only Dominator..."
