Haoyun continued to capture mold energy from the surrounding magic qi, using the little mental power he had left to assist the Speed and Passion Blade in converting this magic qi into underworld power. At first, everything went smoothly. But as the underworld power accumulated by the Speed and Passion Blade increased, the speed at which it converted magic qi also accelerated, to the point where Haoyun's pace of capturing mold energy couldn't keep up with the blade's demand for magic qi anymore.

Feeling the significant increase in the intake of magic qi by his blade, Haoyun naturally rejoiced. He knew that this indicated the blade was improving its efficiency in converting magic qi into mold energy, and he would soon receive more underworld power to attempt a sneak attack on Elina before her vulnerability vanished. Thus, Haoyun gritted his teeth and decided to increase the power of the mold energy collector once again to enhance the efficiency of capturing mold energy, providing more magic qi for the Speed and Passion Blade.

However, what Haoyun didn't anticipate was that shortly after the Speed and Passion Blade increased its demand for magic qi, it suddenly surged in its intake of magic qi like a rocket. Faced with the sudden increase in the intake of magic qi, hundreds or even tens of times larger than before, Haoyun's method of capturing mold energy to free the magic qi from mold energy control proved futile.

Then, to Haoyun's surprise, something astonishing happened. The Speed and Passion Blade began actively absorbing the surrounding magic qi, even those containing a certain proportion of mold energy, indiscriminately sucking them all into its body. Moreover, the Speed and Passion Blade absorbed magic qi explosively fast. After about four or five seconds of absorption, it became extremely hot due to the large amount of underworld power it gained. Meanwhile, a layer of black energy enveloped its surface. These energies were restless, ready to break free from their constraints and disperse from the blade at any moment.

Haoyun immediately recognized these black energies as the mold energy hidden in the magic qi. He didn't understand how the Speed and Passion Blade autonomously separated them from the surrounding magic qi and absorbed them onto its surface, but he could clearly sense a powerful force building up from the blade. Moreover, he was losing control of this force. Therefore, without further thought, Haoyun injected the little mental power he had left into the blade and, in coordination with the underworld power contained within the blade, propelled the extremely restless blade towards Elina like a cannonball.

"How could you? How is this possible!?" Elina covered her shoulder, her voice filled with horror and disbelief. It was evident that Haoyun's sudden attack had severely injured her. As she spoke, she couldn't stop coughing, occasionally spewing out traces of magic qi from her mouth.

Elina struggled to suppress the magic qi oozing from her shoulder wound, glanced at the still gathering magic qi around her, then looked at the fallen Haoyun, and Dao Lao who was flying towards the rooftop of the Blackstone Castle, with eyes full of resentment. She said with great unwillingness, "This grudge will not go unavenged! One day, I will come back to settle scores with you! And reclaim the power that should have been mine!"

With that said, Elina roared to the sky. Then, as if receiving a command, the swirling magic qi immediately madly shot towards Elina. Bathed in it, Elina both enjoyed the final frenzy of absorbing magic qi and used the swirling magic qi around her to create a black hole that would swallow even light. After the black hole formed, it used a strong suction force to suck Elina and the surrounding magic qi into it. Then, the entire black hole rapidly contracted into a point and disappeared with a small spatial vibration in the night sky.

After Elina disappeared, the chaotic winds that had been gathering madly in the sky immediately stopped. The magic qi that had been gathering towards Elina just a moment ago stood still for a moment, confused by the loss of its target. Then, like a frightened flock of birds, the magic qi scattered and fled in all directions.

"Old man, watch over him! I'll be right back!" Seeing Elina being sucked into the sudden appearance of the black hole, the woman realized that Elina might be fleeing. Therefore, she instructed Dao Lao with a glance before flying towards the area where Elina disappeared.

"Darn it! She got away again! Is he okay?" After not finding any trace of Elina, the woman returned to the rooftop and asked while scanning the area.

"Phew! He won't die. He just depleted all his mental power and went into shock. He probably shut down almost all system functions, including teleportation, just to use all his mental power for that last attack. This kid, risking his life like that!" Dao Lao cursed with a tone of relief.

Then, Dao Lao bowed to the woman and said, "Madam, could you please wait here for a moment? Let me take Haoyun back to the base for treatment first, then I'll come back to support you."

"Okay! Hurry up and come back. I'll search the vicinity again to see if I can find Elina's whereabouts." The woman nodded, then rose again and flew into the sky. Dao Lao then commanded his system to activate teleportation and disappeared from the rooftop of the Blackstone Castle with Haoyun in an instant.

At this moment, although Haoyun was in a state of unconsciousness, his deep consciousness seemed to enter a dream, allowing him to feel both the exhaustion and heaviness of his body and the freedom of his consciousness as if it had been liberated, freely roaming in a chaotic horizon.

The scene quickly shifted, and Haoyun found himself drifting into an amusement park. The park was bustling with people, and Haoyun, filled with curiosity, wandered through it. Strangely, although Haoyun could see the environment of the amusement park clearly, he could never see the faces of the visitors. Moreover, the visitors here seemed nervous because of Haoyun's arrival. They would immediately turn and leave as if avoiding a plague when he appeared.
