Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

My aura is filthy, isn't theirs just as filthy?

Having grown accustomed to all the filth in this world, Tao Yu still considered himself to be unstained despite emerging from the mire.

A lion uses all its strength to catch a rabbit, let alone a situation that might involve an Evil God, or more likely, draw in the Aurora Society.

Even without the need for "enticement," Tao Yu quickly lowered his voice and said to Klein,

"When the time comes, you stand in a place where you can oversee everything and carry out on-site divination. If you find that I'm running into trouble, go report to the Church of the Night or seek Mr. Fool's help."

"That, Mr. Fool hasn't really recovered his power yet, you shouldn't count on him."

Klein hastily reminded him.

"Shut up, what do you know? He resurrected you, do you even understand the importance of a resurrection? You are just one of his followers; your power is too weak, you don't understand this level."

Tao Yu arrogantly directed Klein.

But in the end, the reminder was somewhat useful, and he temporarily set aside the idea of Mr. Fool's help.

This is Becland after all. Why should he risk a divine battle for an existence like mine?

Unless I become more valuable and stronger!

"Then let's just get ready on the side of the Church of the Night, one backup plan should suffice, there shouldn't be any big problems."

Having already found himself using a cleaver to kill a chicken, Tao Yu didn't believe there was any possibility of things going awry, and making arrangements was just a precaution.

"No problem, I can quickly send a message to Miss Justice through Mr. Fool."

Klein still found a role for himself.

Although he very much wanted to personally slay Lanerus, if circumstances didn't allow it, then there was nothing to be done.

"The ones acting are the two of us, and even Mr. Fool has expressed interest. Do you think we could act in the name of the Tarot Club?"

While preparing, Tao Yu suddenly had another thought.

"Ah, that... should be possible, I guess."

"Then I'll make a name for our Tarot Club. There's no need to hide when rooting out evil. You go find a high point, I'm going to start preparing."

"Okay."

Just like how Klein shared no secrets about the gray mist, he didn't try to probe into Tao Yu's secrets either. Friendship is friendship, but boundaries must be respected.

Afterward, Klein found the tallest clock tower nearby. With the agility of a Magician, he quickly made his way up...

...

Tao Yu, having already filled himself with a handful of black muck, worked more deftly, and simultaneously questioned the captured evil spirit,

"Time to pay the rent. Can you tell me what the situation is now?"

Tao Yu quickly recounted the situation of a fraudster who had summoned an offspring of the Evil God, mentioning that the fraudster was now apparently seeking help and wanted to inquire about Lanerus from Medici.

Putting aside whether the evil spirit would deceive him, even if it really intended to, some information could still be obtained from its words.

"He might have obtained some of the True Creator's Divinity on him, to a certain extent, he can be considered a vessel for divine descent. He's probably trying to resist," Medici pondered for a moment, speaking with a hint of unusual color in his eyes.

He was very eager for Tao Yu to contact the other party directly. If he did so, the portion of True Creator's Divinity within Lanerus might sense something unusual about Tao Yu, and might even notice Medici himself.

"Perhaps, you could give me access to part of your perspective, so I can see what's happening outside as well," Medici began to speak gently, but Tao Yu remained unmoved.

What if the old man he'd caught got loose as soon as he opened a gap?

Meanwhile, based on what little evidence there was,

If the descent had started, it would be very troublesome.

But Lanerus still had the subjective will to save himself, suggesting that there was room to maneuver.

Tao Yu, no longer a novice in the Extraordinary World,

knew that a ritual capable of allowing a being like the True Creator to descend would not be a minor affair...

"Actually, the most valuable thing is that bit of Divinity inside Lanerus's body, I wonder what use it could serve..."

The glint of peculiarity appeared in Tao Yu's eyes, showing an eagerness to take action.

The next moment, he transformed into a shadow and began moving toward the dockworkers' dormitory...

...

Dappled perspectives flickered as Tao Yu glided through the shadows, waiting outside various room doors, lingering, sensing for any auras that might emerge.

"There are other extraordinaries, middle sequences, not weak at all..."

Tao Yu sensed a problem. It must be people from the Aurora Society. Perhaps they were the ones holding Lanerus. But how did Lanerus manage to escape and leave a clue?

"Never mind, let's take out the henchmen first..."

Due to the uncertainty of the Divinity within Lanerus, Tao Yu didn't hesitate in the slightest to lock onto the target.

A tall figure barely reacted when Tao Yu emerged from the shadows.

The malice that hit him head-on, and the ominous aura it carried, filled him with considerable fear and confusion.

What's going on?

It's one of our own...

Before his flesh could evolve, a dark mire had already engulfed him completely, leaving only the outline of a human shape.

It then slowly began to twist as if digesting and reshaped itself into Tao Yu's form.

A moment later, an extraordinary characteristic appeared in Tao Yu's hand.

"A Sequence Six extraordinary characteristic."

Having dispatched a mid-sequence expert in seconds, Tao Yu showed no care, flicking his hand casually; endless black threads appeared, binding another extraordinary who was attempting to escape into the shadows and dragging them before him.

"How did you let Lanerus escape?"

His opponent also played with shadows, and Tao Yu could feel their desire to turn into a shadow and flee.

However, it was abundantly clear that such powers were but child's play before his own dark mire, utterly suppressed, a sheer dominance of higher power.

"That's because they dare not stop me."

At that moment, a voice came from the side, carrying a trace of excitement.

A figure with a full forehead, black hair, and brown eyes, wearing nearly round spectacles, stepped out.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, seemingly mocking everyone.

There was a sense of joy that came from arranging for so long and finally succeeding.

As he spoke, he began unbuttoning his coat.

On his body, a figure in human form hung upside-down, made from his own flesh— the very image of the True Creator!

The god you cannot gaze upon directly!

Using this characteristic...

Smack~

Tao Yu slapped Lanerus, leaving him somewhat befuddled.

How could it be, this guy is unaffected?

Having entered his dark mire state, with his whole surface covered by his Divinity, Tao Yu found his opponent's actions merely laughable.

"Behave yourself."

While saying this, he twisted another Aurora Society member's neck using the shadow threads.

Tao Yu then took control of Lanerus once more and reached for the three-dimensional divine statue formed from the flesh on his chest.

Splat~

He tore the flesh and divinity out together, then his dark mire covered it, wrapping up the bit of Divinity.

[A Drop of Fallen Divinity]: Collecting enough may unlock certain powers; cleaning it from corruption could allow the absorbing and conversion of a hundred thousand Yuan Force; or, it can be used as a resource through one's own means.

Feeling the attributes of this item, Tao Yu opted not to absorb it momentarily.

While the pie-in-the-sky idea of unlocking powers was unreliable, perhaps he could utilize some extraordinary knowledge from the current world to achieve something.

"I wonder if Mr. Fool can give some advice, and that evil spirit could be asked as well."

After wrapping this bit of Divinity and hiding it in his Visualization Diagram alongside Medici.

Tao Yu then tossed Lanerus's corpse onto the ground, followed by bringing out a deck of Tarot cards, scattering them around the scene.

This is the Tarot Club's debut.

The glory of Mr. Fool shall shine upon the world, hehehe...

...

Almost simultaneously, Mr. A elsewhere received a divine edict from the True Creator, unprecedented in its urgency.

"Find the one who killed Lanerus!"

"Lanerus is dead?"

In the basement where Mr. A was praying, he only learned about the incident now; the news had not been reported yet, indicating that the edict had come directly from the Creator at the earliest opportunity!

Such an excellent vessel of the Lord had been destroyed. Damn it, the person behind this must be found!

Soon after, Mr. A saw a few scenes from the divine edict in his eyes.

It was Tarot cards scattered across the ground...
