Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Chapter 270 The Unexpected Death of The Nascent Soul Beast (1)!

"Huff~ How unexpected! Did she gain a unique skill when she stepped into the Core Formation realm?"

Retracting his gaze from the crimson roses on the ground, Leo lightly opened his character panel, gazing at his growing horror points in satisfaction before shifting his gaze toward the unfolding battle nearby.

Sitting on the cold ground littered with withered corpses in excitement before starting to absorb the lingering fear, horror, and dread that hung above the dark firmament.

Although his foundation was still far from satisfactory, Leo didn't want to waste the imperceptible energy above, understanding that it would dissipate in a few days if it was left unintended.

Swish!

Soon enough, the imperceptible energy above began to churn crazily, swirling above Leo's head ominously before gushing toward his orifices in a forceful manner, drilling within his being and coursing through his body before eventually resting within his multi-colored core.

In the process, it caused his liquefied Qi inside his core to boil crazily, slowly becoming unstable but at the same time increasing by a small amount every second... Making his exp increase continuously.

Furthermore, the negative emotions attached to the imperceptible energy began to invade Leo's consciousness, drowning him in a momentary sense of dread, fear, and horror.

Allowing him to sense different kinds of negative emotions at the same time, almost causing him to lose his rationality in the process.

(Although it wasn't a problem in the past. However, with accumulations from thousands of beings with the foundation realm at the lowest.

The imperceptible energy above was usually heavy and filled with intense obsession, making Leo's soul and consciousness uncontrollably affected.)

Fortunately, as a peak demon, his being has a natural resistance to negative emotions, allowing him to grasp the thin thread of his rationality as he begins to delve into the essence of those negative emotions. Find your next read at empire

"Fear, horror, hatred, and dread—it was all created due to uncertainty and the inevitable.

"No one knows what the future holds, and no one is certain of the present; they might die now, in the next second, hour, or tomorrow without them knowing, making their minds always carry a tinge of fear. Although the beings might not notice it, the fear of uncertainty always hid within the depths of their consciousness..."

Pausing for a while in order to re-arrange his thoughts, Leo continued.

Other than that, he could even sense that the usage of the rules he comprehended became much easier to utilize and fuse into certain skills, allowing him to use them without much effort.

Making his capabilities and overall strength increase by a considerable amount.

Although he was still not confident to face a nascent soul realm head-on, he was sure that he could fight a normal peak stage of the core formation realm without being at a disadvantage.

Swish~

Excited to see the changes in his overall strength and wanting to solidify his shaking foundation in order to absorb more negative energy above the firmament, Leo immediately activated his invisibility skill, parting the wind in front of him as he madly dashed toward the direction of the still unfolding battle in the distance.

Ripple~

At the same time, as he was staring at the physique of the beast and human cultivator in the distance, Leo took out his soul-bound weapon from the depths of the void, wanting to use it in case of something unexpected.

...

Boom!

ADVANCE WATER WHIP!

Gazing at the bloodied beast in front of her with solemnity written in her eyes, a woman in her thirties, wearing a black dress that often flickered with purple starlight—a testament to its epic grade—conjured countless water whips from the void.

Slithering within the dark atmosphere, it created a crisp sound of parting air as it visibly moved within the woman's side, causing the green, slanted eyes of the three-meter-tall beast, holding a bloodied hammer that undeniably weighed a ton, to flicker dangerously.

Although the damage that the woman inflicted on its thick hide was minimal, the pain that they could cause and the water that often drilled within his being every time the whip managed to create a small wound on his skin were simply unbearable!

It's like being invaded by large parasitic lifeforms! Worse, he could feel them moving under his skin!
