Niu Lian's expression changed, his face instantly stretched and elongated by the black orb, his body likewise pulled like a stretched canvas towards it.

Moo!!

No one knew the panic that Niu Jiao Yin Xu felt at that moment. All they heard was a cow's cry as Niu Jiao Yin Xu was struck head-on by the black orb.

Rumble!

The reason even Fang Yue was sure it was a corpse was because... the system notification had already sounded.

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Ye Se Li Ming] for killing [Niu Jiao Yin Xu], reward: Force Manipulation +0, Force Redirection +0, Lifespan +5 years."

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Ye Se Li Ming], Force Manipulation value has reached the realm limit, converting to [Realm Breakthrough Progress]."

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Ye Se Li Ming], Force Manipulation value... [Realm Breakthrough Progress]."

"System notification: Congratulations, you have obtained [Xu Jiao] x2."

Niu Jiao Yin Xu's massive body disintegrated into particles, leaving only his huge bull head behind.

Among the particles, one cluster floated toward Fang Yue's hand, faintly gathering something.

When his hand felt heavy, Fang Yue found himself holding two translucent, crystalline bull horns.

"Xu Jiao: Unknown substance, effect unknown."

"Note: Fight magic with magic!"

Looking at the description of the Xu Jiao, Fang Yue pondered and carefully put away the two horns.

He opened the attribute list, which he hadn't checked in a while.

"Name: Ye Se Li Ming."

"Realm: Human Rank Initial Stage."

"Bizarre Realm: Calamity Rank Initial Stage [5.7%]."

"Spirit Root: Bizarre Spirit Root."

"State: Bizarre Curse [Black Rain], &"

With the addition of internal force and saber techniques, his attributes during combat would only be higher.

As for his lifespan, if he hadn't been injured by Tian Wang Chuan's sword technique, which had sharply reduced it, his lifespan would have been a few years longer.
