Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!

Swinging up and down, as if its tip had a mouth, wanting to take a bite out of Bai E.

"Pfft!" With a forceful effort, the tentacle burst instantly, splattering juices everywhere.

The direct contact with the high-dimensional being allowed Bai E to catch a fleeting glimpse of a corner of the Otherworldly Space at this moment.

Those indistinct shadows that even lacked a fixed shape were wandering around, like a group of sharks circling their prey, waiting for the fatal moment to pounce and take a vicious bite.

Had it been an ordinary soul, they would have swarmed without hesitation.

But the dazzling light from this soul was too blinding, and the one who had initiated the attack first was easily crushed to pieces.

The danger and unknown of the target temporarily deterred these greedy high-dimensional beings.

Of course, the deterrence wouldn't last long.

Beings born from extreme emotions are not only the masters of those emotions but also slaves to the emotions themselves.

Fear wouldn't last long, their craving for souls was like insects' thirst for biomass.

The next moment, a shadow swooshed forward, and in an instant, it was again grasped by the glowing Spiritual Body.

The twisted and withered arm stared at the eye in the palm while writhing in terror.

"Pfft!"

Bursting!

After getting past the initial discomfort of the Spiritual Body and the physical body being able to perform different operations, Bai E's will and physical body were simultaneously fighting in two levels of the world, with the Spiritual Body fending off those high-dimensional beings while the physical body was also swiftly in action.

At this point, Bai E was no longer calculating the output of Spiritual Energy.

In the midst of activating both "Absolute Defense" and "Graceful Liberation," he even initiated the first phase of "Spiritual Heart Crossing."

The fundamental three-dimensional attributes surged instantly, bringing with them an all-encompassing combat capability.

"Bang!"

A red fist violently smashed towards the face, but in the real world, Bai E didn't even blink, just emotionlessly delivered a fatal blow to the sandworm he firmly pinned beneath him.

In the high-dimensional space, the Spiritual Body countered the coming fist with its forehead.

[??? (Demon) (Chaos) —— Using "Lucky Strike" to kill can drop: Definite (Battle Experience 5000 points); Possible (Spiritual Energy (Envy): 30)]

A proper adversary had finally arrived.

The tentacles and arms that were just crushed to bits didn't even bring up a combat record, unclear whether it was due to the special nature of the high-dimensional space, or because those things were not considered individuals but rather part of the background in the high-dimensional space, or perhaps even... environmental factors.

It was like air and water vapor in the real world.

Only this high-dimensional demon with a definite entity was the first real opponent Bai E had encountered.

On the shining Spiritual Body, the visage belonging to Bai E stretched his lips into a somewhat happy smile.

He'd been worried about running out of Spiritual Energy to burn, but the reserves of "Hidden Energy" just came like that.

"Skaha!"

The envious demon lit up with spikes all over and roared at Bai E.

The shining Spiritual Body stretched out both hands and grasped the slender wrists, and in the evidently surprised and confused gaze of the demon of envy, Bai E launched a headbutt.

"Bang!"

[You dealt 3 points of Spiritual Energy damage to the target.]

[Due to the backlash of Spiritual Energy resistance, you took 3 points of Spiritual Energy damage.]

"Bang!"

[You against the target...]

[Because of the Spiritual Energy...]

[Activating "Lucky Strike".]

"Bang!"

The body shattered.

The crimson demon was smashed to pieces under a barrage of headbutts, the fragments that scattered about trying to revert to the essence of high-dimensional space couldn't escape.

Under some indescribable force, those fragments revolved around Bai E's Spiritual Body, the red pieces gradually ground down by a vortex-like force, losing their original color, turning into the purest and flawless primal Spiritual Energy.

[Your "Skill—Soul Black Hole" digested a strand of alien Spiritual Energy and transformed it into your power, increasing Spiritual Energy cap by +1.]

[...Spiritual Energy cap +1.]

Brimming Spiritual Energy flooded into Bai E's soul, which had already weakened considerably, but was now abundantly replenished.

It's my turn now!

The surging Spiritual Energy drove Bai E's body, with flames of revenge blazing fiercely upon his soul.
