All the dark runes hundreds of meters away were drawn to Qin Feng like a long streaming dragon. In his mind, he could feel a huge amount currently entering his consciousness and landing on his diamond ability core. Surprisingly, all these runes had only occupied one small spot of it.
“10,000 dark runes!”
He had not expected to have absorbed so many in one go. The power of these dark runes could be compared to a D-tier weapon. When Qin Feng looked up to the sky and discovered that it had been colored black by the h.e.l.l Stone. Dark, ominous Clouds were everywhere. It seemed like something huge was about to hit the ground.
“I cannot let this happen!”
Thinking about all the children that had lost their lives during the last dark rune catastrophy, Qin Feng was determined to stop the events that were about to take place. He immediately ran to the location where the meteor had crashed.
A 50-meter wide crater dug deep into where the h.e.l.l Stone landed. Qin Feng was dumbfounded as he saw it lying there silently. No one knew the origin of h.e.l.l Stones. Since the first s.p.a.ce rift had sp.a.w.ned on earth, there were already too many mysteries left unsolved.
A long time ago, a fingernail-sized h.e.l.l Stone landed on one of the cities in a country of the west.
Thus, began the great apocalypse!
The entire city was infected by the virus and turned all its residents into the undead, mindless, disease-carrying zombies. The place was ravaged beyond belief, turning into a living h.e.l.l overnight hence its name, the h.e.l.l Stone. Until today, the city had been ruled by a beast-king-tier zombie.
All that cacophony had been caused by a stone no bigger than a quarter. Now, here Qin Feng was, staring at a fist-sized h.e.l.l Stone. He was incredibly anxious. h.e.l.l Stones were usually bad news to most people as it was a well-known fact that dark runes that exuded from it almost always brought forth devastating effects to.
On the other hand, this logic did not apply to Qin Feng. To him, this was something that he longed.
He stood only five meters away from the h.e.l.l Stone. At such close distance, Qin Feng had a good look at the rock. Apparently, there was a fire burning around it, its temperature so high that the ground around it sizzled and liquified. It seemed like the surrounding land was about to turn into magma. Qin Feng had no time to hesitate anymore.
“Absorb!”
Qin Feng’s special ability was activated, allowing him to devour the h.e.l.l Stone with ease. Seconds later, the h.e.l.l Stone was gone, and the dark runes stopped sp.a.w.ning as well. Soon after, he felt something unusual going on in his body. Without going into mediation, he could see that a giant satellite had surrounded his diamond planet. It was like the earth and its moon, both connected.
Dark runes kept pouring out of the h.e.l.l Stone to his diamond planet. Soon, it turned his diamond planet into dark red. He could also sense that his dark ability had enhanced by at least tenfold!
“This is crazy. Ten folds of improvement! I wonder how many dark runes I absorbed!”
Just as Qin Feng was about to bask in his excitement, a palm-sized s.p.a.ce rift appeared at the sky and within its confines, a pale hand adorned with black fingernails came out. It seemed like a hand of a corpse, where no blood flowed through it. That had made it looked extremely terrifying.
Ji!
Ji!
Ji!
Suddenly, Xiaobai screamed and it activated the s.p.a.ce rune without Qin Feng’s consent.
