Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 815 - 241: Clash

Ding——

The sound of swords clashing rang out in the room.

And the source of this sound was Chen Ming, who had just created a Single-Molecule Sword and raised it above his head to block the pitch-black sword held by the Black Mist arm protruding from the ceiling.

"Lurking in the shadows, and still thinking of ambushing me after coming out? What do you think I am? Blind?"

He glanced at the Black Mist arm.

"This Black Mist, you were the one who took Hu Yi last time, weren’t you? I didn’t think you’d dare to come looking for me again."

As Chen Ming spoke, he pondered the effects of this psychic’s Spiritual Energy.

And from the Black Mist arm extending out of the relatively dim corner where the ceiling lights didn’t completely illuminate, it’s clear that this Black Mist thrives in shadows.

Which means...

As Chen Ming and the Black Mist arm crossed swords, locked in a stalemate.

The Stardust Level’s entire lighting system suddenly activated at maximum power.

The lights blazed fully, turning the entire room into a domain of light.

The Black Mist became exposed, the Black Mist arm and the pitch-black sword were instantly obliterated by the intense light.

Chen Ming’s arm relaxed, but his mind did not ease.

Because the intruder’s Spiritual Energy Fluctuation had not dissipated, instead it was lingering around.

The fluctuation was even becoming clearer, as if the Black Mist Spirit Ability User was personally approaching.

At this moment, beneath the chair by Chen Ming’s side, in a spot not quite shadowed, just slightly dim.

Another Black Mist arm extended, swinging a pitch-black sword at Chen Ming’s leg.

But Chen Ming, never relaxing, was always vigilant about his surroundings.

The moment the Black Mist arm appeared, he thrust the Single-Molecule Sword into the ground, blocking the pitch-black blade.

No matter how intense the light, as long as there’s something in the room, shadows will inevitably exist.

This Black Mist arm and pitch-black blade were once again quickly obliterated by the intense light.

But this time, its demise was noticeably slower.

The psychic undoubtedly was on the ship, nearby, maybe even hiding in this room.

Perhaps the Black Mist arms were part of his body.

It seems the Black Mist’s ability also has limitations; otherwise, simply opening a hole in the heart’s shadow inside a human body would suffice.

Clearly, the appearance of the Black Mist arm has a distinct limitation—its operational space.

However, Chen Ming couldn’t guarantee that this Black Mist Spirit Ability User wouldn’t achieve that in the future.

If given a chance, he must eliminate him to prevent being targeted by such a psychic.

Chen Ming resolved to dismantle and relocate items in the room.

Clearing the room, leaving only him and Bai Quan.

This way, he only needed to pay attention to the shadows beneath their feet.

While clearing the room and erasing Black Mist arms emerging from various shadows, his other hand continued its work.

The Purgatory Core activated in his small bag, Extending Entropy Control across the entire ship.

The Stardust Level’s entropy was gradually stabilizing.

But something puzzled Chen Ming — Hu Yi initially heightened the entropy of the Stardust Level without subsequent Spiritual Energy clashes with Chen Ming.

Unlike last time during his volcanic assassination attempt.

Something was amiss.

Though perplexed, Chen Ming remained determined to eliminate the Black Mist Spirit Ability User, a graver threat than Hu Yi.

He had to find a way to flush the psychic out of the shadows, given common methods were ineffective.

He quickly devised a plan.

His Spiritual Power enveloped Bai Quan, solidifying into a layer of Spiritual Armor.

Protecting Bai Quan from the Black Mist Spirit Ability User as well as what’s to come.

Simultaneously, Chen Ming crafted complete Protective Suits for the uninformed personnel in other rooms, ejecting them from the Stardust Level, to retrieve later.

After enveloping Bai Quan in multiple layers of Spiritual Power, Chen Ming’s hand revealed a palm-sized device.

This was the Portable Mental Fluctuation Generator.

Zuo Jing once used it to amplify the Mind Pulse effect of a negative Spiritual Stone causing chaos.

Now, Chen Ming would use it to locate the Black Mist Spirit Ability User.

For location specifics.

Chen Ming retrieved his revolver, Ming.

The decoy brought it to the Fourteenth Legion deliberately.

Ming was embedded with the Stone of Chaotic Words.

The Stone of Chaotic Words was quickly removed from the gun and placed in the Mental Fluctuation Generator.

After maximizing the generator’s amplification, Chen Ming pressed the start button without hesitation.

The chaotic Spiritual Energy wave, accompanied by terrifying whispers, instantly filled the Stardust Level.

Though within Chen Ming’s Spiritual Shield, Bai Quan was briefly haunted by eerie visions.
