The sky had turned completely black.
The giant shadow dragon above the battlefield roared endlessly as Mo Wuying's ritual energy continued gathering.
The destruction of the sect fed the formation.
Dark runes spread across the ground like spiderwebs.
Lin Ye stared at the terrifying energy.
"…Okay."
"This situation just escalated."
Inside his mind—
The system suddenly activated.
DING
Emergency evolution available.
New skill unlocked:
Destiny Devourer.
Lin Ye blinked.
"…That sounds illegal."
System message continued.
Ability: Devour the destiny and power of opponents during combat.
Lin Ye grinned slowly.
"Oh."
"Now we're talking."
Mo Wuying noticed the sudden change in Lin Ye's aura.
"You grow stronger again."
Lin Ye spun the spear.
"Thanks."
"I just unlocked a new cheat."
Then he vanished instantly.
"Shadow Step!"
WHOOSH!
The spear pierced toward Mo Wuying's chest.
CLANG!
Mo Wuying blocked it with his palm.
But something strange happened.
Dark energy from Mo Wuying's body began flowing into the spear.
Mo Wuying's eyes narrowed.
"What is this?"
Lin Ye grinned widely.
"Your destiny."
"…I'm borrowing it."
The spear glowed brighter.
Energy drained from Mo Wuying's avatar.
The shadow dragon above flickered slightly.
Mu Ling'er laughed loudly.
"He's stealing from the villain!"
Su Qingyue looked surprised.
"That ability…"
Mo Wuying's expression darkened.
"You dare steal my fate?"
Lin Ye shrugged.
"You started it."
Then he thrust the spear again.
"Shadow Dragon Devour!"
BOOOOM!
The energy explosion shook the sky.
Mo Wuying's projection flickered.
The ritual formation trembled.
For the first time—
Mo Wuying looked genuinely angry.
"You insignificant mortal."
Lin Ye wiped sweat from his forehead.
"…Yeah."
"But I'm your problem now."
The war between fate and destiny had truly begun.
