105 That damned death god (1/2)

”Proceed,” Fu Sheng tells Sung Na-Mi with a commanding voice.

She gives him a nod. She presses her palms together once before separating them outward. A large semi-transparent blue map with complicated veins structure before her. Huang Qiuyan and others step closer.

[That map is showing the world energy lines.] Xiao Chun dan explains in her mind with shock. [I thought that only tech mages could do it. It's quite difficult to create such a map.]

Huang Qiuyan doesn't bother asking him what tech mages are. She stares at the map showing the countless thin glowing lines. Some of the lines are light blue while others are pitch-black. Some areas are red and purple. It's like she's looking at someone's medical scan result.

Except for Klyn and Huang Qiuyan, everyone in the room understands the meaning of that map. Sung Na-Mi glances at Klyn once who has been staring at her. He looks away when her eyes meet his. What is wrong with this idiot? Then, she turns her head toward Huang Qiuyan. The dead vampire doesn't understand the map either. ”This is the map of the world energy ley lines that connect various energy pools to each other. It's similar to the vein system in our body.”

Huang Qiuyan and Xiao Chun Dan are listening to her with keen interest while Klyn keeps getting distracted by Sung Na-Mi's voice. It's difficult to concentrate if a beautiful girl is giving a lecture.

”The black portion is the flow of dark energy.” Sung Na-Mi points at the large tangles of black veins in the south of the map. ”Recently, there's been a large influx of dark energy from the lower worlds. Something went wrong down there. My mother is there to check the problem along with my brothers. But, that's not our problem right now. Because of the large influx of dark energy, something changed in our world. Honestly, a little more dark energy shouldn't create this kind of imbalance.”

She points at the north of the map. ”The dark energy can affect the dark creatures. It would have made the converts and other dark creatures a little happy. It shouldn't change converts change the way they did.”

That's the part that she doesn't understand. She glances at the eastern part of the map that's full of the light blue veins. ”The dark energy is affecting the spiritual and heavenly energy, but there's still enough for humans and other cultivators who follow the path of light.”

Aiken shakes his head. ”Then, the other creatures should have been affected too. There are witches and fae that follow the path of magic. Then, there are demons who rely on dark energy only. Why is it only the converts? The purebloods aren't affected either.”

”That's because the pureblood's magic is different.” Fu Sheng tells him, ”We don't use this world's energy. The source of our magic is darkness itself. Dark energy is something opposite of heaven's energy. It's something born out of darkness, just like the whole universe was once nothing but darkness itself. It will also end in darkness.”

Everyone becomes quiet. Nobody has any answer.

”What are these red-purple areas?” Huang Qiuyan inquires curiously.
