The twelve runes surrounding him were a defensive measure formed by the materialization of energy after being strongly compressed. They were special methods for those invisible and traceless creatures in the netherworld.

Snap, snap, snap, snap...

The sparks flashed across the runes, but the snapping sound was like popping beans, gradually becoming denser and louder.

The invisible fire that could kill ordinary creatures in the netherworld had no effect on the strange existence that appeared around Raymond, so he immediately took a defensive stance, preparing to find its traces, determine its species, and determine its attack method.

The main body strength reached the peak of the Dawn level, but it only meant that Raymond's defense strength was greatly improved, but for many creatures in the netherworld, ordinary defense measures were weakened a lot.

The defensive barrier released by Raymond now was like a very thin layer of water film. Although it cut off his direct contact with the external environment, it still allowed him to have the most basic sense of touch.

So after the "Twelve Runes" were successfully constructed, the chaotic cold wind that had previously appeared around him could be more clearly perceived by him.

And as the weak sparks produced by the constant collision of the twelve runes around him and the obscure cold wind gradually became brighter, Raymond also used the weak light to vaguely see the many black shadows around him.

It was said to be vague because the shape of the black shadow was not fixed, so Raymond could not be sure whether the black shadow was the attacker himself or the afterimage formed because of its high speed.

It was just the strange laughter of "hehe" before. After the "Twelve Runes" took effect, it no longer appeared, so he could only hear the chaotic wind and the popping sound of each rune due to the collision.

At this time, his heartbeat finally returned to normal. And Raymond, who was trapped in absolute darkness, still remained calm.

This strange creature from the netherworld obviously not only has the ability to affect vision, but also can cause abnormal heartbeats at the beginning, and the airflow it guides or forms only acts on itself, and its strength is obviously not comparable to that of ordinary creatures from the netherworld.

And the most troublesome thing is that Raymond can't detect the existence of these creatures from the netherworld when his perception has almost no effect!

Since it is impossible to find a targeted response, the only way is to use the dumbest method.

Therefore, Raymond, with a bright red light in his eyes. His left arm was like melting and decomposed into five tentacles. The magic that was quickly constructed at the top of it condensed and did not release. After the five space doors constructed by his right hand were completed. The five tentacles then probed in at the same time.

Around Raymond's body and directly above his head, ten meters away, the tops of the five tentacles that had been protruding from nothingness in vain, the strong light magic containing shock waves, shone like five bright lights.

The twelve runes surrounding Raymond. The speed of operation dropped sharply. The many erratic black shadows in Raymond's vision seemed to be in a state of stagnation, and disappeared one after another in an instant, leaving only one!

The black shadow, about three meters high, did not have a stable shape. Its body outline was constantly stretching and trembling, and the face that looked like a human was twisted and deformed, and the pair of light gray eyes were full of death.

About 30 meters away from Raymond, a vague force field barrier was also placed in the center in the shape of an inverted bowl. The airflows that were recognizable around Raymond were being quickly retracted by the black shadow.

Only then did Raymond understand why the mark he set on the phantom butterfly Jima could not be sensed. Obviously, it was this force field barrier that completely cut off his induction with the outside world.

As if it was a black shadow wearing a mask, as the airflow returned to its body, the faint gray air settled and solidified on its body surface like a solid shell, calming the slight tremor of the whole body.

It was impossible to determine its type, let alone its ability, but it could release a netherworld creature similar to an isolation barrier, which was obviously very different from the low-level netherworld creatures encountered before.

It was just the strong light magic containing shock waves, which only made the black shadow a little daunted, but it could not make it fear or retreat. After the four arms condensed by it stretched and twisted, they waved continuously, causing several icy air currents to hit Raymond's five tentacles, causing the released light magic to be defeated.

As the strong light magic disappeared, Raymond also felt a slight pain in his tentacles, and immediately reconstructed the light magic containing shock waves in each tentacle, making the light flourish!

Raymond, who had originally thought of forcing it to retreat, saw the pair of eyes filled with a strong sense of death as his vision recovered, and realized that this battle was inevitable.

Since it was unwilling to withdraw, then let's fight...

The invisible fire had no effect, and the light magic containing shock waves was also not very effective. Raymond, with a bright red glow in his eyes, condensed and strengthened his mental power, and then released it.

It took no time, and it did not produce any fluctuations. The mental power impact that instantly penetrated the black shadow's body was detonated by Raymond.

With a puff!

The body of the black shadow stagnating in the air was like a pierced water bag, and countless light gray mists like body fluids gushed out, making the low netherworld plants under it seem to be wrapped in concentrated acid, withering and falling down quickly with a squeak, turning into powder like ash.

And the distorted face facing Raymond before finally showed some slight changes because of the appearance of several holes.

The face was like a solid mask. As the concentration of the light gray mist splashed out from the inside decreased, some juice-like liquid seemed to melt the mask, causing all the holes to rot and expand, and in an instant, most of its body disappeared, but the pupils containing death did not change!

It seemed like anger, and it seemed to be deep pain, but just after the emotions appeared in those pupils, the twelve runes around Raymond burst out with strong light as if they had suffered a fierce attack, and then the invisible shock wave suddenly hit Raymond's chest.

The incomparable force made Raymond, who was standing unsteadily, retreat, and the light gray mist with only pupils, then crossed the distance between the two sides in an instant, completely wrapping him in it!

The cold and evil breath made Raymond, who could feel the situation around him, feel depressed, and the mental shock that was released again immediately swept outward!

The mental shock that was strengthened again almost reached the level of materialization at this moment. Once it was stimulated, it formed a humming sound, and the light gray mist that wrapped him was violently torn apart and then completely dissipated!

The underworld creature that was hit by this finally let out a weak roar.

The light gray pupils that could be seen all the time produced madness, and they hovered and disturbed around Raymond as if they were teleporting, and they actually made the light gray mist that was dissipating outward begin to gather and condense again like a magnet.

The wisps of light gray mist gradually made the color around the pupils thicker, and the liquid that splashed on the ground around Raymond and solidified like juice also quickly vaporized and rose.

The obscure force field barrier that separated the internal and external environments began to fade at this moment, allowing Raymond to finally see the situation dozens of meters away vaguely.

It was like being in a sauna room with high-temperature steam. With the changes caused by the crazy movement of the light gray pupils, the entire environment began to return to normal.

Raymond, who no longer felt the cold and evil aura, breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, this underworld creature had suffered a heavy blow and was trying to restrain itself.

But just when the light gray mist around Raymond was no longer so thick, the mist that suddenly surged out of his chest made Crystal's figure quickly condense... (To be continued...)
