Lin Yi and Reinhardt looked at each other, and without saying a word, they both jumped up at the same time and rushed towards the direction where the explosion came from.

Inside the room, a middle-aged man in silk clothes was standing in the center, his right hand clutching a head, his fingertips deeply embedded in the skull, blood flowing down his arm, staining his expensive silk sleeves red.

As he exerted a little force with his right hand, the head exploded like a ripe watermelon, and brain and blood splattered all over the carpet, making a slight “ticking” sound.

There was no expression on the man’s face, as if what he had just crushed was just an ant. In his eyes, life was as insignificant as dust.

At the same time, Lin Yi and Reinhardt came to the door and happened to witness this scene.

Their eyes passed over the broken head and blood-stained carpet and met the middle-aged man’s gaze in the air.

At this moment, the two sides confirmed with their eyes that the other party was not an easy person to deal with.

The man took off the nightcap on his head, and the next moment, his body began to twist. The original human shape quickly collapsed, and was replaced by a huge and hideous body.

The man’s skin turned as black as charcoal, and his head was covered with densely packed eyes. Fifteen eyes moved randomly on his body, giving off a creepy and weird feeling.

This is the true face of the Eye of the Void, a ghost with fifteen eyes who can defeat an entire army alone.

Lin Yi tilted his head slightly and whispered to Reinhardt, “Seal off this place and don’t let him escape.”

Reinhard nodded: “Okay.”

When the Eye of Void transformed, Lin Yi inserted the black and white rose into the ground with his backhand. Several black thorns sprang out from the ground and pounced on the body of the Eye of Void like poisonous snakes.

The fifteen eyes of the Void Eye rotated at the same time, and black energy condensed into a thick barrier around his body.

The black spikes hit the barrier with a deafening explosion, and the collision of energy sparked countless sparks.

The shock wave spread throughout the room, centered on the point of impact.

The decorations on the wall were instantly shattered into pieces, and the carpet on the ground was torn into countless strips, with the debris flying in the air.

At this moment, a loud bang sounded in the room.

Taking advantage of the moment when the carpet broke into pieces and blocked his vision, Lin Yi threw the black and white rose towards the Eye of Void with all his strength.

The sword blade turned into a stream of light in mid-air, so fast that it was almost impossible to capture with the naked eye.

The pupils of the Eye of the Void suddenly contracted, and fifteen eyes turned at the same time, trying to capture the trajectory of the sword, but his movements were ultimately half a beat slow.

“Pfft-“

The black and white rose pierced the chest of the Eye of the Void accurately, and the sword penetrated his body with a dull tearing sound.

The power of the abyss quickly spread from the blade and began to erode his body.

The Eye of the Void let out a roar, and his right hand reached out for the hilt of the Black and White Rose, trying to pull out the blade.

However, just as his fingers were about to touch the hilt of the sword, the power of the abyss suddenly erupted, violently bouncing his right hand away.

Lin Yi didn’t give him any chance to breathe and rushed to the front of the Eye of the Void.

“boom–“

At the moment the fist collided with the head, the cheek of the Void Eye was sunken by the punch, and the sound of broken bones was clearly audible.

His body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and hit the wall behind him heavily.

The wall collapsed at the moment of impact, and rubble and dust flew everywhere.

Void Eye’s body slid from the wall to the ground, blood gushed out of his mouth, staining his clothes and the ground red.

Lin Yi stood in place and gently pulled with his right hand. The dark soul thread wrapped around the hilt of the black and white rose sword tightened, and the blade was forcibly pulled out from the chest of the Eye of the Void, bringing out a stream of black blood that splashed on the ground.

“Damn guy.”

At this moment, a dangerous aura surged from the Eye of the Void, like a ferocious beast forced into a desperate situation, ready to launch a final counterattack at any time.

Lin Yi frowned, took two steps back, and held up the black and white rose in front of him as a warning.

At this moment, a sound of breaking air rang in Lin Yi’s ears. The sound was very sharp, as if something invisible was approaching at a very fast speed.

Lin Yi raised his sword and swept it across, the blade drawing a silver arc of light in the air.

“Chong-“

There was a crisp sound of metal collision, and Lin Yi felt that the blade of the Black and White Rose sword seemed to have touched a hard object, but he could not see anything with the naked eye.

He looked down and saw a few transparent fragments slowly sliding down the blade of Black and White Rose, like a broken mirror, reflecting a faint light.

The fragments fell to the ground, making a slight “ding-dong” sound.

The opponent’s attack this time was extremely dangerous, and Lin Yi’s perception was so strong that he didn’t even notice it. If it wasn’t for Lin Yi’s instinct that made him swing his sword to block, he would have probably been killed by the Eye of the Void.

Seeing that his killer move was cracked by Lin Yi, Eye of Void stood up and clenched his hands.

The next moment, two cold green energy daggers appeared out of thin air in his palms.

The dagger has no unnecessary decorations and is as slender as a fang. White-green energy flows on its surface, exuding a chilling cold beauty.

There was a faint green flame flickering on the blade, as if it was the fire of hell, ready to devour everything at any time.

“Click-“

A teeth-grinding sound of metal friction was heard.

The dagger and the blade of the Black and White Rose sword were tightly locked together, making a harsh friction sound.

However, in front of the +13 Black and White Rose, the weapon condensed by the Eye of the Void using its own energy was obviously not good enough.

“Click——”

A crisp cracking sound exploded in the air, and the cold green energy dagger in the hand of the Eye of the Void seemed so fragile under the blade of the Black and White Rose.

The flickering green flame on the blade was instantly extinguished by the erosion of the power of the abyss. The shape of the dagger quickly disintegrated and turned into countless green energy fragments, which dissipated into the air like fireflies.

The pupils of the Eye of the Void shrank sharply, and the confidence in its eyes was completely shattered at this moment, replaced by a look of horror that was difficult to conceal.

He retreated rapidly, trying to distance himself from Lin Yi.

However, Lin Yi’s speed was far beyond his expectations. Almost the moment he moved, the sword of the Black and White Rose had caught up with him like a shadow.

The black and white rose was lifted up, bringing up a dark sword energy.

The Eye of the Void hastily raised his arms and condensed an energy barrier to try to block the attack.

The moment the sword blade touched the barrier, the barrier was torn apart as easily as paper, and couldn’t even hold out for half a second.

“Pfft-“

There was a wound on the chest of the Eye of the Void so deep that the bone could be seen. Black blood flowed down his body and dyed his clothes red.

This battle with Lin Yi made the Eye of Void realize two things clearly.

First, the energy wrapped around the opponent’s sword was extremely terrifying, and its corrosiveness was simply despairing.

Even at this moment, the power of the abyss within the Eye of the Void was still raging, and he was helpless.

Second, the close combat experience of both parties is completely at a different level, and Lin Yi is far ahead of him in controlling the timing of the battle.

After confirming these two points, the Eye of the Void retreated and distanced itself from Lin Yi.

His hands gathered energy again, but this time, he did not choose a melee weapon. Instead, he conjured up a fluorescent energy longbow.

“Whoosh-“

An arrow made purely of energy shot out from the air at an extremely fast speed. Almost at the moment the arrow left the string, it had already approached Lin Yi’s throat.

With the help of his super strong nerve reaction speed, Lin Yi swung the black and white rose in his hand, and the sword blade accurately chopped the energy arrow.

“Chong-“

The moment the arrow collided with the sword, there was a crisp metallic collision sound.

The energy arrow was split into two by the sword of Black and White Rose, turning into two balls of fluorescent green energy fragments that dissipated in the air like fireworks.

The Eye of Void did not give Lin Yi a chance to breathe, and pulled the longbow in his hand again. This time, three energy arrows were placed on the bowstring at the same time.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Three arrows were shot out at the same time, aiming at Lin Yi’s head, chest and legs respectively, with tricky angles and extremely fast speeds. Lin Yi cut off the first arrow, then slightly turned sideways to avoid the attacks of the other two arrows.

Two arrows flew past Lin Yi’s body and hit the wall behind him.

In an instant, two huge holes were blasted into the wall.

If he was hit directly, even Lin Yi would find it difficult to escape unscathed.

The Eye of the Void realized that ordinary attacks had no effect on Lin Yi at all, and instead were wasting its own energy.

So he decisively gave up continuing to use this inefficient attack method.

This time, the Eye of the Void pulled the bowstring, aimed at Lin Yi, and began to accumulate power.

Lin Yi felt a sharp stinging sensation in his perception. He looked up at the Eye of the Void and saw that the longbow in the opponent’s hand had been pulled to the full moon, and an arrow emitting terrifying energy was condensed on the bowstring.

Countless tiny arcs of energy were wrapped around the surface of the arrow, and the surrounding air was swallowed up by it, forming a depressing vacuum zone.

“Whoosh-“

The Eye of the Void released the bowstring, and the arrow flew out into the air. It was not fast, but wherever it passed, the space was torn apart, leaving a dark crack.

Lin Yi did not dare to be careless and immediately moved to dodge.

But he soon discovered that the arrow seemed to have locked onto his body. No matter how he dodged and evaded, the arrow always stuck to him, like a poisonous snake that had set its sights on its prey and would not stop until it died.

Since he couldn’t dodge, Lin Yi prepared to fight head-on.

“Deep Shadow, Instant Slash.”

Several black streaks of light slashed towards the arrow at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.

The moment the sword blade collided with the arrow, the energy structure inside the arrow was completely destroyed. The originally stable energy instantly went out of control and turned into countless tiny energy fragments, which exploded violently in the air.

The shock wave generated by the explosion swept through the entire room like a strong wind, completely blasting the furniture in the room into pieces. The walls were covered with spider-web-like cracks, and even several deep grooves appeared on the ground.

Lin Yi inserted the black and white rose into the ground with his backhand, and with the support of the sword, he managed to stabilize his body.

“Void·Annihilation!”

The Eye of the Void raised his hands, and a dark crack opened behind the Eye of the Void. A terrifying suction force came from the crack, as if it was going to swallow up everything around it.

Lin Yi felt an irresistible pulling force, and his body involuntarily moved towards the crack.

His feet left two deep marks on the ground, but he still found it difficult to keep his body steady.

All the small objects in the room – tables, chairs, debris, and even decorations on the wall – were sucked into the cracks by the suction force and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Lin Yi tried to swing out a sword energy to interrupt the opponent’s attack, but the moment the sword energy approached the Eye of Void, it was swallowed up by the distorted force of space, like a drop in the ocean, disappearing without a trace.

“Hahaha! It’s useless! In front of the void, everything will be annihilated!” The Eye of the Void laughed wildly, and his voice was full of madness and destruction.

Lin Yi took a deep breath. Since ordinary attacks were useless against the space cracks, Lin Yi prepared to use a move he had just figured out in the Land of All Living Beings.

This move is extremely dangerous. Even in the Land of All Living Beings, Lin Yi’s chance of successfully using it is only 60%. Once any mistake occurs, the energy in Lin Yi’s body will burst out and pierce Lin Yi into a sieve.

‘Abyssal Shadow: Blade of the End.’

The blade of the Black and White Rose suddenly burst out with a dazzling black light, and a huge black sword shadow extended from the blade, with countless tiny black arcs entwined on the sword shadow.

The lethality of this move is extremely terrifying, but the price is also heavy.

Even in the Land of All Living Beings, Lin Yi’s chance of successfully using this move is only 60%.

If any mistake was made, the energy in his body would go out of control, burst out of his body and pierce him into a sieve.

The black sword shadow cut through space, carrying the power to destroy everything, and headed straight for the Eye of the Void.

Wherever the sword shadow passed, a huge crack was torn in space, forming a sharp contrast with the space crack behind the Eye of the Void.

“boom–“

Two terrifying energies collided violently in the air, making a heart-pounding roar.

The space crack began to collapse under the impact of the black sword shadow, and the terrifying suction force disappeared.

The Eye of the Void let out a shrill scream, and his body began to disintegrate under the impact of the black sword shadow, and the fifteen eyes on his head exploded one after another.

“No… this is impossible!” There was a hint of madness in the voice of the Eye of the Void. He couldn’t believe that his killer move could be cracked by someone.

At the moment when the Eye of Void went crazy, the blade of the Black and White Rose pierced its heart. The Eye of Void raised its head and looked at Lin Yi in front of it, as if it had something to say, but at this moment, he no longer had the extra energy to leave a last word.

[Tip: Since the hunter killed the ‘Eye of the Void’ and stopped the actions of the Shadow Council, it has now been included in the ‘Special List’. ]

I have to say that the Eye of the Void is worthy of being the Vice Speaker of the Shadow Council. None of the things that have exploded are ordinary stuff.

Lin Yi first took out the special list of items dropped by the Eye of Void. The items that could be highlighted by the Samsara Paradise must be not bad.

Opening the list, Lin Yi quickly scanned the contents.

He found that the register contained many names and the detailed addresses where these people lived.

Most of these names are middle and lower level officials in the city of Zur.

Although these officials do not hold high positions, they are spread across every corner of Zur City, in charge of the daily operations of the city, and are important gears in maintaining the functioning of the city.

The Eye of the Void wins over these middle and lower-level officials through Wish Street and secretly controls the situation in Zul City.

Lin Yi flipped through the list hastily and his eyes stopped on a name on the last page.

The name was circled in black pen, making it particularly eye-catching – Edmund von Klein.

In the list of the Eye of the Void, Edmund’s name was circled in black, which was enough to show the importance the Shadow Council attached to the Klein family.

“interesting.”

Lin Yi quickly put away the roster and already had a plan in mind.

This list is not only a piece of intelligence, but also a trump card.

As long as it is used properly, it will become an important bargaining chip for Lin Yi in the game in Zul City.

As for whether to hand over this information to Harold, Lin Yi was not in a hurry to make a decision.

In this game of power, revealing your cards too early will only put you in a passive position.

He would rather wait and see the attitude of the Klein family – if they can offer enough chips to tempt him, he might choose to keep it secret for the time being.

If the Klein family was ignorant and insisted on being his enemy, he would not mind telling Harold the treasonous intelligence that could destroy the entire family.

Given Harold’s character, he would never tolerate any betrayal and would definitely order a thorough liquidation of the Klein family, and Lin Yi would naturally be able to get a share of the pie in this operation.

After confirming that the battle in the room was completely over, the dense lightning network around the room began to slowly dissipate. Reinhardt and the executioners walked into the room and began to clean up the mess.

If Reinhardt hadn’t helped seal off the room, the aftermath of Lin Yi’s battle with the Eye of the Void would probably have destroyed the entire Wish Street.

Reinhardt commanded his men to transport the body of the Eye of the Void back to the execution ground.

In the Zul Empire, the flesh and blood of the phantom is regarded as an extremely precious strategic material. For the awakened, the flesh and blood of the phantom is the key to their awakening.

The higher the level of the Phantom Flesh and Blood, the stronger the ability of the awakener will be after awakening, and it can even determine the upper limit of his future.

Take Reinhardt for example. When he awakened, he devoured the flesh and blood of a Ten-Eyed Phantom. It was that awakening that gave him his current almost perverted abilities.

However, the higher the level of the Phantom Flesh and Blood, the more terrifying the risk of backlash will be, and the success rate of awakening will be greatly reduced.

It can be said that this is a gamble with one’s life at stake. If you win, you will rise to the top; if you lose, you will be doomed. (End of this chapter)
