Chapter 125: Attempting to Deal with the Reibloodian

The reason the Light form bestowed by the Plasma Spark Tower was so powerful was that it provided a significant boost to Yue Longze's physical attributes and greatly increased his internal energy reserves.

The physical attribute bonus refers to an enhancement of his speed, strength, defense, and reflexes. In simpler terms, it improved his overall physical fitness and the energy within his body.

...

The ten mass-produced Darklops were quickly dispatched under the fierce onslaught of Yue Longze and his two companions.

"How was it? How did the Specium Ray feel?" Zero asked, walking leisurely toward Yue Longze while twirling his sharp, silver Zero Slugger.

Mebius also turned his gaze toward Yue Longze.

Yue Longze flexed his wrists, shook out his hands, and replied, "Amazing!"

Hearing this, Zero patted Yue Longze on the shoulder. "Once you recover the Light form you lost, I bet it will feel even better!"

Yue Longze paused for a moment before laughing. "You're right!"

Mebius, hearing this, grew curious. Could it be that Yue Longze possessed an even stronger form previously? Mebius voiced his question, and Yue Longze answered him honestly.

...

"Then you must reclaim that lost power as soon as possible! King Ultra would never deceive you," Mebius said earnestly.

A flash of determination crossed Yue Longze's milky-white eyes. "I will definitely reclaim that lost Light!"

Yet, while his resolve to recover the Light was firm, Yue Longze had no leads. According to King Ultra, the Light granted by the Plasma Spark Tower should still be within him, yet he remained unable to access it.

"What a headache..." Yue Longze sighed. As he saw it, there were two ways to rapidly increase his strength.

First, recover the lost Light and restore his stronger Light form.

Second, comprehend the essence of darkness from the pure dark energy currently within him.

However, both methods seemed incredibly difficult to Yue Longze, especially the second one. The essence of darkness was far too profound for him at his current stage. Of course, the method for slow, steady improvement was simple: constant combat—honing his skills through battle, especially by engaging in life-or-death struggles.

Between life and death, one often finds the best opportunity to break through their limits!

...

"Kid, let’s head back to the Land of Light," Zero said suddenly.

Just moments ago, through the special communication methods shared among the members of the Ultimate Force Zero, Zero had learned that the Ultra Brothers, Father of Ultra, Mirror Knight, and the others had all awakened and recovered from their injuries.

Zero was also aware of the Alien Reiblood spirit residing within Yue Longze. He intended to bring Yue Longze back to the Land of Light to pool their collective strength and help him resolve the trouble inside his body. Although Alien Reiblood was formidable, it was worth a try!

When informed of the plan, Yue Longze was stunned. Though he didn't hold high expectations, he nodded. After all, if they succeeded, it would not only eliminate the spirit of the Alien Reiblood but also free the Murakumo Sword, thereby increasing his combat effectiveness.

"Are you returning to the Land of Light?" Mebius asked curiously.

Yue Longze nodded. "Are you coming with us?"

Mebius shook his head decisively. "No, I need to remain within the solar system."

"Oh?" Sensing Yue Longze's confused gaze, Mebius looked toward the direction of Earth. "I must protect this star sector; I must protect the Earth." His tone was plain, yet firm.

Yue Longze paused slightly, then patted Mebius on the shoulder. "Then you must protect this beautiful planet well! Good luck!"

"You as well," Mebius replied with a smile.

"Yeah!" Yue Longze nodded heavily, then turned and set off with the impatient Zero on the journey back to the Land of Light.

...

The return journey was smooth. There were no formidable enemies, only a few waves of mass-produced Darklops, all of which were easily dealt with by Yue Longze and Zero.

After flying for some time, the two arrived safely at the Land of Light. Although the Land of Light had suffered significant damage during the great battle against the Kyrieloid God, the buildings already looked brand new. Clearly, they had been repaired.

Yue Longze and Zero quickly located the Ultra Brothers and the others. Even members of the Ultimate Force Zero, such as Mirror Knight and Glenfire, were gathered with them.

Yue Longze examined everyone carefully; they all appeared in excellent condition, full of spirit and well-recovered. When Mirror Knight, Glenfire, and the others saw Yue Longze’s current dark form, they were visibly stunned, as his appearance was different from before. Yue Longze immediately explained that these were simply two different forms he possessed, which put them at ease.

...

Zero quickly explained their purpose to the group. Upon hearing that a malevolent entity like the spirit of the Alien Reiblood existed within Yue Longze, they were all extremely astonished.

The spirit of the Alien Reiblood had entered his body, yet he could still stand there normally without being corrupted by evil. When Belial had first accepted the power, it wasn't even the full spirit of the Alien Reiblood—just a small portion of its evil energy—yet he had fallen completely into darkness! This made it clear just how remarkably resilient the willpower of this uniquely colored Ultra warrior was.

This commanded the deep respect of everyone present, and their gazes were filled with admiration.

...

"Yue Long, I never imagined your willpower would be so formidable!" even Leo, who was usually reticent, spoke up to praise him. Leo himself possessed an incredibly tenacious will, yet he admitted he wouldn't be able to resist the evil corruption of the Alien Reiblood through willpower alone.

"Yeah, little Longze, you’re truly impressive!" Glenfire added in surprise. Although they didn't originate from this universe, they had heard of the infamous reputation of the Alien Reiblood since their arrival.

...

Faced with this situation, Yue Longze smiled bitterly to himself. "Everyone is overestimating me..."

If not for the existence of the Murakumo Sword, he likely would have become the second Belial long ago!

...

"Alright, everyone, let's see if we can erase the spirit of the Alien Reiblood from within Yue Long," Zoffy, the most respected among them, commanded. He, too, had not expected the spirit of the wretched Alien Reiblood to exist inside Yue Longze.

Everyone nodded in agreement, tacitly forming a circle around Yue Longze, their expressions grave.

*I hope this works...* Yue Longze prayed silently to himself.
