Looking at the pool of blood elder Jao has turned into and the word he had spoken, both Murong and Fei took many steps back, their back soaked in sweat. Looking at the broken mirror on the ground, they seemed to Staring at the pool of blood that was once Elder Jao and recalling the haunting words he had uttered, both Murong and Fei instinctively took several steps back, their backs drenched in sweat. Gazing at the shattered mirror on the ground, realization dawned upon them, revealing the magnitude of the trouble they had inadvertently unleashed.

In haste, they hurriedly retreated towards the exit of the secret room.

"Sister Fei-" Elder Murong began, the weight of unease evident in his voice.

Elder Murong was about to speak when he noticed he was surrounded by four other Law Enforcement elders.

"Well, Brother Murong, it must be difficult for you to know that one of our respected elders died because of your actions. To make sure you don't feel the weight of this, we'll take some items from you as compensation," explained Elder Fei, maintaining a seemingly friendly demeanor. However, the coldness in her eyes conveyed a different message.

"Elder Fei, don't push it too far. Don't attempt to bully me. Even though I can't defeat all of you, you can't take any drastic action against me. The Sect Master will not allow it."

"What are you saying, Brother Murong? Our elder died there in such a horrifying manner. So, another death won't make it much more suspicious, especially considering the horrifying event that Elder Jao triggered."

Elder Fei maintained the same smiling facade while delivering her response.

"Hmph, I remember this," Elder Murong grumbled, aware that he had to make a significant concession. He hastily retrieved some valuable items from his storage ring and left in a hurry. Although he didn't show it, the incident and the horrified voice of Elder Jao still sent chills down his spine.

"Master Fei, do we let him go like this?" inquired one of the four elders.

"Well, we can't force him too much. Although we could keep him here, his desperate attacks would only harm ourselves. Plus, with the loss of Elder Jao, we don't want to make enemies of Silver Axe Peak, even if we are stronger than them."

"Yes, Master Fei," replied the four elders, albeit a little reluctantly.

Despite Elder Jao holding a higher position in terms of seniority and being crucial for using the Truth-Seeking Mirror, in actual combat, due to his old age, he wouldn't be a match for any of them individually. Moreover, they had several older ancestors besides their Law Enforcement Hall.

Elder Jao's death was only regrettable for them, but what truly saddened them was the loss of the invaluable Truth-Seeking Mirror.

.....

Over two weeks had passed since the incident, and Su Chen remained oblivious to the consequences of his actions. Engrossed in his training, he only used some of his time to accompanying his sister.

On this particular day, the qi in his body had reached the standard for breaking through the 9th layer of spirit building. Inhaling deeply, he instructed Xiaohei not to let anyone disturb him, intending to focus solely on achieving the breakthrough to the 9th layer.

He commenced his exercises, and after a few minutes, he perceived a distinct clicking sound accompanied by an influx of qi entering his body. Sensing a subsequent improvement in his strength, he estimated that entering 9th layer of physical training, he has strength roughly equivalent to 60,000 kg (per single hand).

In his previous life, he would be strong as a superhero or something similar, but in this world, he was merely a small ant. The abundance of qi in this realm rendered ordinary things much more stronger than in his previous world.

While pondering these thoughts, the sound of the system rang in his ears.

[DING! DETECTED HOST HAS BROKEN A SMALL REALM]

[REWARD : One Lucky Draw]

"System, draw it", said su feng calmly.

[DRAWING.....]

[DRAWING.....]

[CONGRATULATIONS HOST FOR GETTING ITEM : Flesh Of Nyarlathotep]

[Flesh Of Nyarlathotep : Flesh Of Nyarlathotep: A part of flesh broken from the original body of Nyarlathotep during his fight with Bastet. Can be used for fusion, but beware – while it brings benefits, it also imparts the personality of Nyarlathotep. Although it obeys you, be cautious as Nyarlathotep's own clones can backstab him.]

Listening to it, Su Chen was very excited, but with excitement came worry.

However, to improve himself, he had to take this risk.

"Fuse it, system," he exclaimed, and with his words, he seemed to be surrounded by all sorts of chaos, distortion, and madness.

He felt an agonizing pain, yet he was unable to even scream. On the brink of madness, a force intervened, allowing him to regain his senses.

About five minutes later, with cold sweat pouring out from his body, he felt that he had transcended from an ordinary human to a high-level life. However, he couldn't harness all of those immense powers.

"Hehehehehe, interesting, so interesting, kehahahhahahahaha," came a sound from within him, sending a chill down his spine.

"Who are you!?"

"Hehehe, having absorbed my flesh, don't you know it yourself, little human?"

Hearing that it was indeed Nyarlathotep, one of the three great outer gods, left Su Chen breathless. Although he knew he couldn't do anything to himself due to the system, Nyarlathotep was still a chaotic and malevolent god with no moral boundaries.

Known as the Crawling Chaos, Nyarlathotep had a peculiar fascination with human beings, treating the human world as his playground and humans as his toys. His actions were unpredictable, and he recognized no conventional sense of good or bad. In one moment, he might bestow precious knowledge or gifts upon someone, only to turn them into a monstrous entity without the slightest hint of remorse in the next.

Even among the outer gods, Nyarlathotep remained an enigmatic and inscrutable entity, his motivations and nature shrouded in mystery.

Just as Su Chen was about to engage in conversation with Nyarlathotep, the system's voice resonated in his ears.

[CONGRATULATIONS HOST FOR GETTING TALENT "PAIN IMMUNITY," "FLESH MANIPULATION," "CENTER OF CHAOS," "SHAPESHIFTING," AND "UNPREDICTABLE AURA"]*

Examining these newfound abilities filled Su Chen with joy. However, before he could delve into their details, another voice intruded into his mind.

"Interesting, interesting. How can you suddenly gain these innate talents, appearing as if you were born with them? You are an interesting human, hehehehehe."

While Su Chen was surprised that Nyarlathotep could discern these abilities right after their acquisition, merely knowing who Nyarlathotep was sufficed for him not to be overly concerned.

Ignoring Nyarlathotep, he proceeded to explore the details of his newly acquired abilities.
