Vincent frowned and pondered. The power of the Black Hole was extremely compatible with his superpower. If they were both used at the same time, it would definitely increase his control over monsters greatly.
However, the power was too terrifying. Even with the middle-aged manâs strength, he had to use his life as payment in order to cultivate the power. What ability did Vincent have to control it?
After an uncertain period of time, Vincent suddenly raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man.
âSenior, I choose to inherit all of your abilities!â
Vincentâs tone was firm.
âThere are some things that need to be done. If no one is willing to do it then Iâm willing to do it for the sake of humanity!â said Vincent.
The middle-aged man stared into Vincentâs eyes and asked him in a deep voice, âEven if it means becoming the common enemy of humanity?â
Vincent nodded.
The middle-aged man continued to ask Vincent.
âIs it worth it? You have done so much, but in the end, you have to be judged by the people that you protect. They will not care about the protection that you offer. They will only know that you have used a forbidden power!â
âItâs worth it! Sacrificing a small number of people in exchange for the final victory. I donât think thereâs anything wrong with that!â said Vincent firmly.
âSimilarly, sacrificing me alone can be exchanged for victory during a war. I donât think thereâs anything wrong with that either!â said Vincent.
The middle-aged man looked at Vincent. He did not say anything. After more than ten minutes, he let out a hearty laugh.
âHahahaha! Good! Good! I really didnât choose the wrong person! Youâre the successor that Iâve been waiting for!â
âLittle guy, accept my power!â
As the middle-aged man spoke, he waved his right hand. Gray gas flew out and slowly condensed in the air. The gas transformed into a small gray ball that was the size of a soybean.
âThis is my Purgatory Purification superpower. Although it wonât be as easy as your own superpower, itâs still equivalent to an A-Class superpower.â
The middle-aged man flicked his finger, and the small gray ball flew directly into Vincentâs glabella.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âExtracting abilities and bestowing them onto others. This is also one of the abilities that the Black Holeâs power had given me.â
Vincent felt his glabella light up. He could feel a powerful force flowing from his glabella to his limbs and bones.
He closed his eyes quickly and carefully sensed the flow of the powerful force.
âDing! S-Class elemental ability detected, Purgatory Purification, is it a perfect absorption?â
The systemâs notification sounded in Vincentâs mind.
âYes!â
âDing! Absorbing, please waitâ¦â
âDing! Absorption complete! Congratulations host for obtaining S-Class elemental ability, Purgatory Purification!â
âDing! 99% similarity detected, âHellfireâ, âPurgatory Purificationâ. Do you wish to fuse them?â
Huh? It seemed like he could merge the two superpowers.
Vincent was stunned. He did not understand.
Firstly, there were no superpower fusion gems in his backpack. Secondly, Hellfire was an S + class superpower. The two superpowers of different levels could be merged without any superpower fusion gems!
This obviously had something to do with the similarity the system had mentioned.
âSystem, what is the similarity?â asked Vincent in his mind.
âSimilarity: the superpowers have the same level, 95% of the same level can be fused, regardless of the superpowerâs level limit.â
Vincent suddenly understood. This was it!
He chose to fuse them immediately.
âDing! âS + Class elemental ability Hellfireâ, âS-Class elemental ability Purgatory Purificationâ is fusing, please waitâ¦â
âDing! The fusion of superpowers is complete! Congratulations host for obtaining an X-Class elemental superpower, World Cleansing Fire!â
âWorld Cleansing Fire: X-Class elemental ability. It possesses flames that can purify everything.â
That was it?
Vincent was dumbfounded. World Cleansing Fire had such a short introduction.
âSystem, what do you mean by purifying everything?â
âEverything that the host can think of.â
Holy sh*t!
So terrifying?
Vincent almost jumped up from his chair.
Everything that he could think of was within the purification range. Does this mean that all defenses would no longer work on him from this moment on?
Vincent swallowed his saliva hard.
The terror of the World Cleansing Fire made him speechless.
Vincent slowly opened his eyes again and looked at the middle-aged man.
His one glance actually made the middle-aged man tremble from the depths of his soul.
Vincentâs flame-shaped pupils also had a noble gray color in the middle.
âLittle guy, it seems like the absorption of Purgatory Purification is much higher than I imagined.â
The middle-aged man did not know about the systemâs existence. He just thought that Vincentâs absorption of Purgatoryâs Purification seemed more complete than usual.
Vincent smiled slightly and did not explain further.
The middle-aged man waved his hand again, and jet-black gas flew outwards. It was also compressed into a small black ball that was the size of a soybean. It then bounced towards Vincentâs glabella.
The small black ball entered Vincentâs glabella. Vincent closed his eyes again.
âDing! Unknown energy detected. Analyzing, please waitâ¦â
âDing! Analysis completed!â
âSpirit-Binding Commander (incomplete): possesses the ability to bind and enslave souls.â
âDing! 97% similarity detected. âSpirit-Binding Commander (incomplete)â, âS-Class superpower Monster Affinityâ. Do you wish to fuse them?â
The two superpowers could be fused?
Vincentâs view of the world had been shattered.
The powerful ability that he yearned for had unexpectedly been completed in such a short period of time.
âFuse!â
Vincent said to the system in his mind.
âDing! âSpirit-Binding Commander (incomplete)â and âS-Class superpower Monster Affinityâ are fusing. Please waitâ¦â
âDing! Fusion complete! Congratulations to the host for awakening an X-Class superpower, Transformation Skill!â
âTransformation Skill: X-Class superpower. Using the targetâs blood, the host can transform into other forms and possess corresponding abilities.â
Although Vincent was shocked, after everything that had happened, he could only accept the power of the Transformation Skill.
When he opened his eyes again, Vincent discovered that the middle-aged manâs figure had faded. The manâs expression had also become a little dispirited.
âSenior, whatâs wrong?â asked Vincent full of worry.
The middle-aged man waved his hand. He was trying to let Vincent know that there was nothing wrong.
This time, a memory crystal flew out from the crystal coffin instead. It was no longer gas.
âThis memory crystal is what Iâve learned throughout my life. Go back and slowly comprehend it.â
Vincent took the memory crystal with both hands and expressed his gratitude to the middle-aged man again. At the same time, the system also notified him that he could learn combat skills. Vincent rejected the system to learn the combat skills at that moment.
The middle-aged manâs figure had faded even more. The tone of his voice became much weaker.
âLittle guy, the future of humanity depends on you. I hope you can stay true to yourself and that you donât disappoint me.â
âSenior, donât worry, I will not let your superpowers and combat skills sit in the dust!â
âHahaha! Good!â
The middle-aged manâs figure was becoming more and more transparent. He was vanishing.
âLittle guy, my soul is about to disappear. I donât have the status of master and disciple with you. Before we part, can you call me master?â
Vincent stood up with a solemn face and bowed deeply to the middle-aged man.
With an extremely sincere tone, Vincent called out to the man, âMaster!â
âGood! Good! This is the most accomplished Iâve been. I, Ixus, have not mastered the power of the black hole. However, I have managed to meet a genius like you and have taken you on as my disciple! Hahaha! I have no regrets about death!â
âBorn an ordinary person, yet you do extraordinary things. The sky is nine thousand miles high. I will go at my leisure!â
âLittle guy, we will have noâ¦â
Before the middle-aged man could finish his sentence, his figure had disappeared completely.
At the same time, Vincentâs surroundings started to crack. It then shattered with a bang.
Vincent felt a white light flash before his eyes. When he could see his surroundings again, he found himself standing on the peak of the defensive mountain range.
The cold wind blew, and Vincent started to cry. He knelt down and kowtowed three times.
âTeacher, you have a good journey.â
