The Eclipse Society and the Night Watch have almost the same origins, and have been openly and secretly fighting for many years, each having gathered a large amount of intelligence on the other.
The intelligence held by the Night Watch includes detailed information on about seventy to eighty percent of the high-level combat power, including members of the Elder Council and some core members. The situation with the Eclipse Society should be similar.
However, the Night Watch knows very little about the current Eclipse Society Chairman. It can be said that apart from his gender and Spiritual Energy fluctuation characteristics, there is almost no useful information.
Who this new Chairman is, what Spirit Mark he possesses, and what his temperament is like are all shrouded in mystery, completely unknown.
Not even how he took over the position of Chairman from the previous Chairman is known for certain. According to intelligence from Night Watch moles infiltrated in the Eclipse Society, the previous Chairman likely disappeared between June and September ten years ago, while the current Chairman appeared around August of the same year, almost a seamless transition.
Regarding the reason for the disappearance of the previous Chairman, there are several different theories within the Eclipse Society.
According to intelligence from the moles, some Eclipse Society members claim that the previous Chairman was recognized by the black sun and followed the black sun into the depths of the starry sky.
After all, the ultimate goal pursued by most fanatical Eclipse Society members is to gain the recognition of that seemingly fictional deity. However, from the Night Watch's perspective, a fictional deity, in order to become reality, requires a large amount of "raw material", and the previous Chairman very likely willingly became a part of that deity.
Simply put, he was devoured, like a sweet and delicious dessert.
Another relatively reliable theory is that the previous Chairman was defeated in a struggle with the Elder Council and was eliminated, and the current Chairman is a puppet supported by the Elder Council.
There are two pieces of evidence supporting this theory.
First, the current Chairman is unknown. Before becoming the Eclipse Society Chairman, no one knew of his existence, as if he was created out of thin air.
Second, in the one or two years after the change of Chairmen, the Elder faction's power grew rapidly and rose.
Most of the cruel or bizarre techniques and rituals for creating urban legend mastered by the Eclipse Society were developed during the eight or nine years when the Elder faction was powerful.
However, the Chairman faction, which had suppressed the Elder Council for a long time over the long years, declined within a short period.
However, this theory has gradually become full of doubts and lost its footing as the Chairman faction has shown signs of resurgence in the past one or two years, and the struggle with the Elder faction has intensified.
Therefore, in the current Night Watch, there is a new speculation - perhaps the current Eclipse Society Chairman is not the only specific Psychic or urban legend at all.
Today, upon sensing the Spiritual Energy fluctuations of the Eclipse Society Chairman near Da Chunyang Palace, Zhang Huainan's mood was not only solemn but also contained a hint of excitement.
Although it might sound a bit arrogant, even when facing the Eclipse Society Chairman, he was fully confident of standing in an invincible position, and even capturing him alive was not impossible.
If he could confront the current Chairman today, even if he couldn't keep him, he could probe his true strength and gather more intelligence.
This intelligence might be of great help to the various actions taken by the Night Watch Guardians against the Eclipse Society in the future. However.
Just as Zhang Huainan stood up, preparing to use his spiritual sense to lock onto the exact location of the Eclipse Society Chairman, he was surprised to find that his Spiritual Energy fluctuations had silently disappeared without a trace.
As if he had never appeared. He just disappeared!"
Hmm? Could that fellow be carrying some special Spiritual Energy item that hides Spiritual Energy fluctuations? Even so...
Zhang Huainan thought, and unhurriedly took out a compass from his In arms, injected Spiritual Energy into it, and cast a divination. After looking at the hexagram, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Huh? How...
An incredible situation occurred.
The object of his divination was the source of the Spiritual Energy fluctuations he had just sensed with his spiritual sense.
It is difficult to obtain information about Calamity-level beings like the Eclipse Society Chairman through divination in a short period.
In fact, Zhang Huainan and a group of Psychic within the Night Watch who are proficient in divination have tried to divine the information of the Eclipse Society's Calamity-level combatants, but it usually ended in failure.
Under the interference of their own Power, the blessings of the deity worshipped by the Eclipse Society, and various other factors, they usually cannot obtain divination results or can only obtain difficult-to-understand images.
Therefore, Zhang Huainan chose a clever method for this divination - using himself as the object and divining the distance between himself and the source of the Spiritual Energy fluctuations he had just sensed with his spiritual sense.
However, the result was a series of images similar to "far away in the sky, close at hand".
In simple terms, the source of that Spiritual Energy fluctuation actually came looking for him, incredibly approaching his side. Zhang Huainan, "..."
Hmm? He's actually coming for me? This is a bit strange!
He originally thought that the fellow carrying the Eclipse Society Chairman's Spiritual Energy fluctuations, taking such a great risk and daring to infiltrate near Da Chunyang Palace, was coming for the code f urban legend.
Although, with the suppression of the code f urban legend, the disturbance it caused has temporarily passed, there are still a large number of items in Da Chunyang Palace that have been completely corrupted by the code f urban legend' Power.
Even though those items now...
Each one looks like a plush toy of a cartoon character, they still have high research value. The Eclipse Society has always had a strong interest in various high-level urban legend, and the code f urban legend is the most top-tier existence among currently known high-level urban legend, and its Power is particularly special. If they could obtain some related items, the Eclipse Society might indeed risk infiltrating Da Chunyang Palace.
With this speculation, Zhang Huainan once planned to go ahead and block the fellow after locating him, and then notify the disciples of Da Chunyang Palace to urgently evacuate their disciples.
However, at this moment, divining that the source of that Spiritual Energy fluctuation was approaching him, Zhang Huainan was truly unable to guess the fellow's purpose.
You say you're a robber, robbing a bank vault. Why are you running towards the police station across the street instead of going to the vault? Are you having suicidal thoughts? Just as Zhang Huainan was wondering, a rumbling sound of iron hooves galloping suddenly came from outside Lan Yue Cave.
Why would a spirit beast come to Lan Yue Cave? Is it here to deliver a message?
Zhang Huainan raised his eyebrow slightly and quickly walked out of the cave. As soon as he looked in the direction of the rumbling sound, he saw a black shadow flying towards him and hitting the ground in front of him with a "Duang!" sound, creating a small pit.
Dust flew up.
After the smoke and dust settled, he lowered his head and looked closely, and saw Lu Yibei, who looked like a fire mouse with flames spewing from the gaps in the armor on her back. The corners of his mouth twitched [N O V E L I G H T] violently.
The red and black flames spewing from her back were clearly affected by the Black Sun Fire Seed. And the Spiritual Energy fluctuation that emanated the aura of the Eclipse Society Chairman was precisely those flames...
So, it was you causing trouble? I was just about to evacuate the elders and disciples of Da Chunyang Palace and contact the Guardians who could get away and come over, did you know that?
If other Guardians had come, you would probably have to go to the Si Ye Hui Headquarters! freewebnøvel.com

This situation is like the crew receiving an anonymous report that someone is carrying dangerous explosives on the plane, and after investigation, it is found that someone brought a disposable lighter on the plane.
Zhang Huainan thought with a hint of anger, pointed at Lu Yibei, and asked Shui Shu Beast, "What's wrong with her?" Hearing this, Shui Shu Beast looked at Zhang Huainan sideways and rolled his eyes.
His eyes seemed to be saying, "You're asking me? Who should I ask?"
Shui Shu Beast was indeed completely clueless as to why Lu Yibei would commit such self-harming acts.
Zhang Huainan was speechless for a moment, silently moved his gaze away from Shui Shu Beast, and turned to look at Lu Yibei.
Upon seeing her current appearance, Zhang Huainan quickly composed himself, frowned slightly, and with a slight probe of his spiritual sense, he discovered that Lu Yibei had fallen into a state of Spirit Mark loss of control.
After a brief thought, he decided to save her first.
Although he couldn't figure out for the time being why Lu Yibei had contracted the Black Sun Fire Seed.
It was even the Black Sun Fire Seed directly spread by the current Eclipse Society Chairman from the black sun Fire, carrying his Spiritual Energy fluctuation aura...
However, if he didn't intervene, Lu Yibei might be burned to a crisp.
Moreover, her falling into such a state is clearly related to the Eclipse Society. He knows a little about why the Eclipse Society Chairman's Spiritual Energy fluctuation aura would appear on her.
So, once she wakes up, wouldn't he know everything if he just asked her properly?
Thinking of this, Zhang Huainan subconsciously channeled a surge of Spiritual Energy, gathered it at his fingertips, formed a sword with his right index and middle fingers, and raised his hand to point towards Lu Yibei's forehead.
However, as soon as he raised his hand and saw Lu Yibei's armor, which even had metal mesh covering her eyes, his expression immediately twitched. His raised hand froze in mid-air for a few seconds before slowly lowering.
Lu Yibei's armor was simply too thick.
If it were someone else, pointing like this would definitely cause their fingers to shatter from the rebound of the Lingtai Pure Karma.
Even Zhang Huainan, in a short time, could not inject Spiritual Energy into Lu Yibei's body through the Lingtai Pure Karma to wake her up from her chaotic state of consciousness.
Zhang Huainan looked at Lu Yibei with a complex expression, pondered for two seconds, his gaze sharpened, he took a deep breath, channeled Spiritual Energy to his throat, and opened his mouth to let out a column of air, roaring out a thunderous sound.
"Oh Kid, clear your mind and calm your breath, sink your intent into the inner scenery, practice the visualization chart!"------
~Boom----!"
A loud bang exploded in her ears. Lu Yibei opened her eyes, and everything she saw was covered in a hazy mist. After the mist slightly cleared, she saw a terrifying scene.
Under the inky black night sky, loud bangs echoed continuously.
Along with the loud bangs, dark red flames, eroded by the Black Sun Fire Seed, raged through the ruined and decaying cities. Intense shockwaves swept in all directions, reinforced concrete was torn apart by terrifying force and thrown into the sky.
The remnants of those buildings, wrapped in flames, drew parabolas under the sky, falling towards the earth like meteors, landing in streets and alleys, smashing into the outer walls of tall buildings, immediately triggering a series of violent explosions and deafening roars.
Amidst the roars, enormous figures rushed out from the riddled earth and crumbling tall buildings.
Dark red flames outlined their massive bodies. Their thick arms wielded blazing weapons, and from their hideous faces, thick smoke and intense light spewed forth.
They were the Flame Demons under Ifrit's command.
Looking towards the center of the city, at the top of a building that seemed to reach the sky, stood a towering figure.
That body wrapped in flames, crescent-shaped long horns on its forehead, and wings that spread out behind it, spewing
Thick smoke and sparks. That was the legendary image of Ifrit.
However, unlike the legend, the flames that made up its body at this moment were dyed with ink, turning into dark red. Only a dazzling ball of flame light gathered in its chest, pulsating like a heart, making a booming sound. frёewebηovel.cѳm
It roared, spreading its arms as if embracing the sky, intoxicated by the power that the Black Sun Fire Seed brought it.
It flapped its wings, extending countless red and black lines twinkling with flame light, crisscrossing under the sky, and pouring thick smoke and dark red sparks onto the ruined and decaying city.
Like falling stars, the sparks fell into the city, turning into countless rampaging Flame Demons, cheering and dancing for their king who had finally gained freedom, and shouting loudly.
"Created from the earth and flames, once tested the might of heaven""
Damn it, my little brother is really getting ahead of himself this time, he actually dared to rebel! Looking at Ifrit on top of the tall building, Lu Yibei felt complicated.
In her opinion, if someone treated her the way she treated Ifrit, and she seized the opportunity, she would definitely make that person wish they were dead.
Now that Ifrit has finally seized the opportunity to rebel, will it give her a good time?
Don't look at how miserably the little brother is usually oppressed, but that's because of the energy of various precious materials used when drawing the Spirit Mark, and the suppression by three "big shots". In fact, it's not a good character.
In most legends, Ifrit appears as an evil figure, and in the myths and legends of Central Asia, Ifrit is even a descendant of the evil god Iblis.
Now, it has absorbed the Black Sun Fire Seed, which is full of chaos and disorder, and it might transform into a higher-level evil spirit.
At this moment, Lu Yibei could only watch, as if looking at flowers in the mist or the moon in a mirror, she could see but could not interfere with the rampant Ifrit.
That feeling was like seeing a bloodthirsty insect crawling and burrowing under the skin, gnawing at bone and blood, yet being completely helpless, making her anxious.
""
Should I have been nicer to my little brother before? What should I do now?
It's clearly trying to kill me, isn't anyone going to stop it?
As Lu Yibei was worrying, a vast flash of lightning suddenly appeared in the accumulating dark clouds in the sky, illuminating the entire city in a dazzling silver-white.
Thunder rumbled like drums, echoing in her mind.
In that thunder, Lu Yibei vaguely heard a familiar voice: Sink your intent into the inner scenery, practice the visualization chart!"
