Abyssal Invasion, I Wield Dark Authority – Chapter 91

Ch 91: All Upgrades

But unfortunately, he still failed.

He only saw a world filled with pitch-black mist, suddenly zooming in, and then it was as if he saw a boundless dark earth.

But just like last time, before he could clearly see what it was, his consciousness fell into a blank…

At the same time, in reality, the shadow beneath his feet suddenly exploded, coming from the two-dimensional world to the three-dimensional world.

It suddenly danced wildly, but extended out fiercely.

In the blink of an eye, it had reached its limit of fifty meters.

But this was not the end at all, it was still continuing to extend.

One hundred meters, two hundred meters, three hundred meters…

In the end, it reached a distance of five hundred meters…

Ten times amplification!

Still ten times amplification!

The violent shadows danced, as if fierce ghosts were dancing wildly, filled with evil meaning.

But this shadow seemed to be between reality and illusion, and did not cause any destruction.

Even some shadows swept past the boats of those anglers in the distance, and some of the anglers felt a slight darkness in front of them, and looked up in surprise…

But most of them had lights on behind them, so they couldn’t see far anyway. In addition, Qin Jin-Nian’s boat wasn’t lit, so they couldn’t see this scene of fierce ghosts dancing wildly at all…

Even more, they didn’t know… If this shadow wasn’t currently between reality and illusion, then their heads would probably have been chopped off by now.

Well, it was that dangerous!

The shadow’s wild dance lasted for about ten breaths, then it suddenly retracted, falling into silence.

And Qin Jin-Nian also woke up from his dazed state…

He was first dazed for a moment, but finally, he let out a long breath.

What exactly did he see when the Authority was upgraded?

He thought strangely in his heart.

But in the end, there was no answer.

“My mental strength is only one hundred, it’s still a bit too weak… After my mental strength is improved, I should be able to see it.”

He could only think like this in the end.

Then, he excitedly sensed his Shadow Power…

“It seems, it’s become stronger…”

His eyes lit up, and finally, he probed out a Shadow Tentacle…

One hundred meters, two hundred meters, three hundred meters…

After reaching the limit of five hundred meters, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Still ten times amplification.

With ten times amplification, the usefulness of this Shadow Power will be greatly improved… You must know that the effective range of an ordinary sniper rifle is only seven or eight hundred meters!

Now, he completely possesses the ability of ‘long-range attack’!

With a thought, a sharp Shadow Dagger floated in front of him. He gently touched it with his hand, and in the next moment, the Shadow Dagger turned into a black light, instantly falling downwards.

Puchi!

Easily, the Shadow Dagger crossed dozens of meters of the river, pierced into the riverbed, and easily, stabbed a small hole more than four hundred meters deep at the bottom of the riverbed!

“The power has increased so much?”

Qin Jin-Nian’s eyes lit up.

When it was only fifty meters before, he had done similar experiments, and found that the further down the dagger went, the weaker the power became, and at that time, it only stabbed a small hole six or seven meters deep.

But now, it directly pierced through. The sand and gravel of the riverbed were simply like tofu in front of the Shadow Dagger.

This destructive power has not increased by just a little bit…

With a thought, this shadow then turned into black mist and dissipated, merging into the ground beneath his feet.

Qin Jin-Nian also experimented with the number of split strands…

Sure enough, this time, densely packed, a full five thousand strands were split out… as thin as cow hair!

But each strand was extremely strong, could be real or illusory, could be rigid or flexible, ever-changing…

Even though Qin Jin-Nian was mentally prepared, he still couldn’t help but have his eyes light up.

The amplification is ten times…

But the improvement in real combat power is more than ten times!?!

Immediately, Qin Jin-Nian nodded with satisfaction, no longer looking at the shadow, but looking at the panel…

There are still more than 27,000 Shadow Points. The best thing would naturally be to upgrade Shadow Control by another one or two levels…

But after looking at the panel, he was a little helpless.

He was stuck again.

The plus sign behind Shadow Control disappeared.

Obviously, it was because the Rank had been improved, but the mental strength had not been improved…

Thinking of this, he looked at the Stat Points…

Stat Points, there weren’t nearly as many as Shadow Points.

He didn’t even have time to count how many corpses he swallowed in Church of the End this time, but more Shadow Points were gained.

However, although the Stat Points didn’t increase much… there were 5487 points at the moment.

Let’s calculate…

Now, it takes 10 Stat Points to increase 1 point of mental strength. According to the previous pattern, for every 10 points of mental strength increased, the required Stat Points will also increase by 1 point.

Then these five thousand Stat Points can at most allow him to increase his mental strength to about three hundred…

“It’s estimated that it will be difficult to reach the limit… Forget it, let’s not worry about it for now. Let’s upgrade the other two Authorities first.”

There are still more than 27,000 Shadow Points, enough to upgrade both ‘Shadow Devour’ and ‘Dark Eyes’ to ‘Lv2’.

Immediately, Qin Jin-Nian no longer hesitated and directly added points…

[Shadow Points -1000, you upgraded the Basic Authority ‘Shadow Devour’.]

[Basic Authority ‘Shadow Devour’, upgrade successful. Current level: Lv: 2…]…

（Missing text）

Boom!!!

Once again, that world appeared.

The shadow turned into a black cloth and spread across the entire lake surface.

Qin Jin-Nian once again fell into a state of absent-mindedness…

Not long after, he woke up.

He still didn’t see that world clearly.

He shook his head and looked at the shadow beneath his feet, not experimenting with the changes in ‘Shadow Devour’ right away.

Then he upgraded…

[Shadow Points -100, you upgraded the Basic Authority ‘Dark Eyes’.]

[Basic Authority ‘Dark Eyes’, upgrade successful. Current level: Lv: 1…]

Boom!!

This was the first upgrade of ‘Dark Eyes’.

That world appeared again.

And Qin Jin-Nian’s eyes, at this moment, emitted a dark light, as if the entire sclera disappeared in an instant, leaving only pure black.

This movement felt much smaller than Shadow Control and Shadow Devour.

But after Qin Jin-Nian woke up, he felt that the world in front of him had suddenly undergone a huge change…

The world was still that world, but under this night sky, he seemed to see strands of indescribable strange light… These lights seemed to have some intervals, some near and some far.

What is that?

Qin Jin-Nian was stunned, looking at the strands of light in the air, not understanding their meaning.

But he only stayed stunned for a short while, and didn’t continue to think about it.

“Upgrade to Level 2 first.”

So he continued to upgrade.

[Shadow Points -1000, you upgraded the Basic Authority ‘Dark Eyes’.]

[Basic Authority ‘Dark Eyes’, upgrade successful. Current level: Lv: 2…]

Today, he saw that world for the fourth time, but he still only saw a pitch-black earth, and then he fell into a coma. He still didn’t figure out what that place was…

When he regained consciousness again, he looked up, and the strange lights in the air became more and more obvious.

This feeling is difficult to describe, it’s as if… this world, in Qin Jin-Nian’s eyes, suddenly became ‘piece by piece’…

Very peculiar.

Also strange.

After staring at the lights in the air for a while, Qin Jin-Nian lightly exhaled, temporarily suppressing it… Currently, all three Basic Authorities have reached Level 3, but apart from Shadow Control giving him the most direct feeling of becoming stronger, the functions of the remaining two Authorities are temporarily unknown.

Qin Jin-Nian looked at the remaining 24,000 Shadow Points, pondering slightly.

“Level 1 is 100, Level 2 is 1000… Level 3 is likely to need 10,000.”

“There are still 24,000… Well, I can open another new Authority, and upgrade it to Level 3. Reserve 10,000, and after my mental strength reaches the current Rank limit, then upgrade ‘Shadow Control’…”

Thinking of this, he looked at the new Authorities…

Currently, only two Authorities are showing.

One is Shadow Body, and the other is Shadow Armor.

Qin Jin-Nian’s gaze traveled over the two new Authorities, analyzing the specific direction of the Authority from the name of the Authority…
