Chapter 591: Chapter 591

Just as Lu Zixun was about to directly sever the ritual connection, the mirror returned to normal.

Feng Kui Ming sullenly said, "Master, I’ve just been disrupted by the Plague God during the ritual. Now, it seems that the Plague God has recovered quite a bit of power during the spread of the Civilization Destroyers."

"What can he do with his power now?"

After sensing no abnormalities, Lu Zixun pondered for a moment before inquiring.

"He can initiate some powerful plagues, such as a Spiritual Ability Disorder."

"Spiritual Ability Disorder is a type of plague targeting Spiritual Ability Users. To launch this plague, a large number of Spiritual Ability Users must die, and there must also be a frenzied epicenter to initiate it."

"When a Spiritual Ability Disorder occurs, the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth, including that absorbed by the Spiritual Ability Users, becomes abnormally violent. Even if Spiritual Ability Users manage to control such violent Spiritual Energy, they would be driven insane by the whispers that seem to reach their ears, eventually being controlled by the Spiritual Energy."

After ending the conversation with Feng Kui Ming, Lu Zixun felt extremely vexed.

Why was there not a single benevolent divine presence in the Crimson Land to combat the gods?

Raising his hand, he rubbed his painful temples, feeling that a Spiritual Ability Disorder was about to appear.

Now one condition had been met— a large number of Spiritual Ability Users had died. So... the epicenter.

As long as he could find the epicenter, he could prevent the outbreak of the Spiritual Ability Disorder.

But what exactly was this epicenter?...

Looking at the mirror that had returned to normal, Lu Zixun sighed silently.

The Plague God had taken notice of Feng Kui Ming; it seemed he could not summon him in the near future.

Otherwise, if the Plague God followed the trail and pulled Lu Zixun out, that would be troublesome.

After washing his face and stepping out of the bathroom, Lu Zixun sat at his desk and could sense the power of Order spreading from Zone B to the entire Insect Slaying Zone. Qing Yuanyang’s execution ability was still pretty good.

As for how to find the epicenter of the Spiritual Ability Disorder, Lu Zixun currently had no leads.

Deep inside he vaguely felt that the Plague God’s purpose was not that simple. The arrival of the Civilization Destroyer was just the beginning.

Drawing a deep breath, Lu Zixun opened the Mall that he hadn’t accessed for a long time.

Sedative: I-Level medicine, as the name implies it can calm a person instantly.

Note: This medicine is bottled; there are fifty pills per bottle, non-renewable.

Price: Fifty thousand Super Energy Particles.

Wang Mingxing’s Surgical Scalpel: I-Level Spiritual Tool, possessing an edge sharp enough to cut through most exteriors, making surgeries more efficient.

Note: As a descendant of the Wang Family, Wang Mingxing was given an important responsibility right from birth—to become a Star. Ironically, he became a doctor instead.

Price: One million feeling value.

A Tattered Diary: Unknown item.

Note: The content might be a diary of seduction, or perhaps cultivation methods—who knows.

Price: One feeling value.

Void Power: A one-time consumable item containing a portion of G-level Void Power, capable of delivering a powerful attack.

Note: Beware, high-energy impact ahead.

Price: Two million feeling value.

Looking at the items in the Mall, and at those out-of-tune notes, Lu Zixun’s lips twitched.

He now owned three million feeling value and twelve thousand Super Energy Particles.

Originally, he had only wanted to take a look at the Mall before upgrading the system, but now it seemed that this batch of items was worth purchasing.

After some thought, Lu Zixun decided to make the purchase.

"Ding—Two million plus one feeling value and fifty thousand Super Energy Particles successfully deducted."

"Ding—Sedative, A Tattered Diary, and Void Power have been placed into the System Space, please check."

Taking out the sedative and examining it, there were no labels or usage instructions on the bottle—just a white plastic container, looking like a product with no brand, no name, and no quality assurance.

If it wasn’t for Lu Zixun sensing an I-Level aura from the medicine, he would’ve thought the system had just conned him.

The Void Power was indeed a legit one-time consumable. Its appearance was similar to a hand grenade, and the way to use it was simple and crude—throw it out.

As for the tattered diary, Lu Zixun placed it on the desk and began to flip through it.

[Within our relentless search, we finally found Him, but now He appears incredibly weak. What exactly happened back then?]

[Under our care, His spirit is gradually recovering, but his body is becoming weaker. We can’t find a way to help Him just yet.]

[I had a disagreement with Dagon. I think we should separate His power and soul into two, otherwise, He may very likely die. Dagon has refused me and struck me hard in the face. I don’t blame him.]

[He woke up, but soon fell back asleep. He agreed with my theory, but I... am not so happy. To save us humans, He has suffered too much. Maybe I can find another way?]

[I successfully separated His Spiritual Fire and power. Under our escort, He might...]

Flipping through the pages after the diary entry, Lu Zixun found there were no more.

The diary seemed to contain traces of a divine presence, a divine presence on the brink of death, one that had been sheltering humanity.

Tossing the diary into the Mall, Lu Zixun upgraded the Mall.

"Ding—Mall upgrade in progress; upgrade completion in thirty hours."

After closing the system, Lu Zixun planned to check the Mall every day after the upgrade was complete; there seemed to be something hidden in this diary.

The Civilization Destroyer within the Insect Slaying Zone was killed by Order.

But according to Ling’s statistics, in this process, another twelve thousand Spiritual Ability Users died—a hundred times crueler than any war.

Faced with this outcome, Qing Yuanyang, as the Commander, felt deep regret after his rage.

If he could have detected the Civilization Destroyer sooner, if he could have established Order sooner, perhaps the casualties wouldn’t have been so severe.

Unfortunately, if onlys were plentiful in this world.

While the mourning ceremony was held, Lu Zixun did not participate. Instead, he went to a large tree outside Zone A and looked calmly at Yue Sichen standing there.

"The Civilization Destroyer not only entered the Insect Slaying Zone but also reached the Insect Clan’s origin."

Pausing, Yue Sichen earnestly said, "Perhaps we should have a serious talk about the divine."

Lu Zixun smiled, "That depends on what you can offer."

"Some information you don’t know, such as the location of the epicenter for the Spiritual Ability Disorder..."

As Lu Zixun and Yue Sichen were exchanging information, a pair of eyes appeared in the shadows and pressed the shutter button of the camera in hand.
