Chapter 3115: Terrifying! Two Chain Combat Skills! Fusion Again...

Wang Teng’s brows furrowed.

He hadn’t expected that the handling of Dark Species corpses could carry such a multitude of hidden dangers.

Indeed, ignorance was bliss—once you knew, you were startled to your core.

He took a deep breath, no longer questioning the round little creature, deciding instead to find an opportunity later to ask the Mechanical Race’s True Gods.

They would certainly know where those special places for disposing of Dark Species corpses were located.

Wang Teng stopped pondering and immediately absorbed the final insights from the *Moyan Giant Body* technique.

Each of those extraordinarily unique runes burned into his memory, allowing him to instantly grasp the method of activation.

“This combat skill requires combining it with the innate talent of the Moyan Clan.”

The realization struck Wang Teng clearly.

The *Moyan Sacred Body* of the Moyan Clan was the key to wielding this technique; without that talent, it simply couldn’t be used.

That was a real pain in the neck!

But it didn’t faze Wang Teng. After all, he had already acquired the fifth-level *Moyan Sacred Body* talent.

“Fifth level—barely enough to activate this technique,”

he thought.

He knew that a fifth-level *Moyan Sacred Body* was equivalent to the physique of a lower-tier Demon Sovereign, or even a middle-tier one.

Many middle-tier Demon Sovereigns among the Dark Species had only developed their physiques to the fifth level.

Moreover, his mastery of the *Moyan Giant Body* had reached the early stage of completion, with a stat value of 7,500 points—exactly half.

Wang Teng was satisfied, then absorbed the final combat skill insight.

**Boom!**

In the thunderous rumble, a dense black light suddenly appeared in Wang Teng’s mind, like a black star.

But upon closer inspection, he realized it was actually a great seal.

“Another seal-type combat skill!”

Wang Teng immediately recalled the Light-based skill *Great Sun Melt Heaven Seal* he had obtained earlier.

That skill had allowed him to fuse numerous other techniques.

Now, what about this new seal-type skill?

Could it give him a little surprise?

To be honest, there were very few seal-type skills within the Dark Sect’s techniques.

Everyone knew that the Dark Species’ combat skills were all extremely direct and brutal attacks—rarely did they bother with elaborate forms.

So, would they really create a seal-type technique?

It seemed utterly impossible.

Yet the Dark Species of the Moyan Clan had actually crafted such a technique—a phenomenon as rare as the sun rising in the west.

What the hell?

Wang Teng now increasingly felt these Dark Species were starting to grow brains.

Could it be that once they reached the Demon Sovereign level, they all began to develop intelligence?

*Ssssh!*

Terrifying indeed.

Wang Teng studied the seal in his mind carefully, absorbing every insight.

The runes and the flow of primordial energy within the seal were presented in meticulous detail, clear as day.

*Moyan Earth-Covering Seal!*

“It’s a middle-tier Demon Sovereign-level technique!”

Wang Teng’s eyes widened slightly, feeling a sense of disbelief.

The Moyan Clan had dropped a middle-tier Demon Sovereign-level technique—how incredibly rare that was.

Previously, he had only possessed two upper-tier Demon Emperor-level techniques.

The difference between then and now was simply too vast.

It almost felt unreal.

He had originally thought at most he’d get some lower-tier Demon Sovereign-level techniques.

After all, high-ranking members of the Moyan Clan were all focused on mastering the *Disaster Dread Demon Body*, so it should’ve been hard to drop any high-tier techniques.

But reality had slapped him hard across the face.

Who said the Moyan Clan couldn’t drop high-tier techniques?

Look—here was one, right before his eyes.

“And it’s already mastered! Stat value: 5,800 points!”

Wang Teng now truly regarded the Moyan Clan with newfound respect.

To cultivate a middle-tier Demon Sovereign-level technique to mastery was no small feat.

“The Moyan Clan’s combat skills are finally absorbed.”

Wang Teng exhaled in relief. The Dark Species of the Moyan Clan kept shattering his understanding, making him hesitant to relax.

He feared being humiliated again.

But now, finally, the absorption was complete.

No more torment from the unexpected combat skills of the Moyan Clan.

Such happiness came with its own troubles.

Once again, Wang Teng sighed inwardly.

Then he turned his gaze to the next set of combat skill insights, his eyes flickering slightly.

The Lethargic Mist Clan!

Next were the combat skill insights of the Lethargic Mist Clan!

……

*Lazy Poison Knife* (Upper-tier Demon Emperor-level peak): 5,300/20,000 (Great Completion);

*Lazy Mist Chain* (Upper-tier Demon Emperor-level peak): 6,800/20,000 (Great Completion);

*Lazy Mist Chronic Illness Sword Technique* (Lower-tier Demon Sovereign-level): 8,500/12,000 (Masterful);

*Lazy Mist Mask* (Lower-tier Demon Sovereign-level): 7,600/15,000 (Masterful);

*Lazy Mist Heart-Eating Whip* (Lower-tier Demon Sovereign-level): 10,500/15,000 (Masterful);

*Lazy Wind Shadowless Body* (Middle-tier Demon Sovereign-level): 8,900/20,000 (Proficient);

*Lazy Sky Soul-Stealing Spear* (Middle-tier Demon Sovereign-level): 6,000/20,000 (Proficient);

……

One after another, combat skill insights flooded into Wang Teng’s mind, invigorating his spirit, causing him to feel a sudden surge of astonishment.

The number of battle techniques obtained from the Lazymist Clan this time was by no means small.

Previously, the techniques available from this particular clan had been scarce, numbering a mere handful.

Among them, those at or above the high-tier Demon Emperor level were restricted to only two, putting them on par with the repertoire of the Demon Rock Clan.

Yet, this was profoundly baffling.

One had to consider that when Wang Teng first encountered the Lazymist Clan, it was a very long time ago.

It predated his encounter with the Demon Rock Clan by an immeasurable span.

The existence of the Demon Rock Clan had only truly manifested in the wake of this great war.

Therefore, that it had taken such a vast stretch of time just to acquire two high-tier Demon Emperor-level techniques from the Lazymist Clan felt distinctly amiss.

"Could it be that the battle techniques of the Lazymist Clan are rarer than those of ordinary dark apparitions?"

An absurd thought suddenly sprouted in Wang Teng's mind, bringing with it a strange, intuitive sense that their techniques were exceedingly precious.

And it made perfect sense.

The battle techniques of the Lazymist Clan were intrinsically tied to the Power of Sloth, a force rooted in emotion, which placed it among the most peculiar of energies.

To deem such techniques precious was entirely reasonable.

With this realization, Wang Teng enthusiastically began to absorb the insights of the Lazymist Clan's battle techniques.

The first to manifest was a dark blade technique he had previously acquired, known as the Lazy Miasma Blade.

As the corresponding insights flooded in, Wang Teng's mastery of it surged rapidly, leaping forward by an entire tier.

Grandmaster!

It had advanced directly from the proficient stage to the grandmaster stage.

Wang Teng was pleasantly surprised; that the very first technique would grant him such an unexpected boon was a splendid start indeed.

This technique did not merely contain the Power of Sloth; it was also laced with a highly toxic miasma, making it incredibly difficult to defend against.

Wang Teng had deployed this technique before, and his enemies had easily fallen prey to it; even if they were not struck directly by the blade's glow, they would still be affected.

It had to be admitted that when it came to manipulating an opponent's emotions, the techniques of the Lazymist Clan possessed an absolute advantage.

Next, the insights for a second battle technique emerged, and within Wang Teng's mind, the luminous silhouette of a Lazymist Clan dark apparition coalesced.

With a mere wave of its massive hand, the silhouette unleashed an endless deluge of black mist, within which countless numb and eerie faces surfaced.

Silently, chains of pure darkness condensed and swept toward the adversary.

One could see that under the constriction of those black chains, the surrounding void seemed entirely sealed away.

The warriors trapped within fell into a daze, their faces reflecting the same numb and eerie expression, as if their very vitality and spirit had evaporated.

"Impressive!"

Wang Teng was inwardly startled.

He had not expected this chain technique of the Lazymist Clan to be so extraordinary; it was completely a wide-range control-type battle technique.

The chains had not even struck the opponent, yet they had already exerted such an effect.

Its might was readily apparent.

If it were merely the most basic Lazy Mist, the Power of Sloth within it would be somewhat dispersed.

Certain powerful individuals could still resist that sluggish energy for a short duration, preventing themselves from being immediately affected.

However, these black chains resolved that issue, carving out a sealed domain that intensified the oppressive nature of the slothful force.

At the same time, it prevented opponents from easily escaping; otherwise, they would inevitably be assaulted by the chains.

One should not assume the black chains served only to restrict; they were fully capable of slaughter.

Within the vision of his insights, the black chains had already launched their offensive against the foe, resembling a horde of giant black pythons snapping frantically at their prey.

Several martial warriors of the Light Cosmos had their bodies pierced through, instantly corrupted by dark energy and the Power of Sloth, dying a death so profound they could not be any deader.

Many other warriors sought to flee, but it was entirely futile; the blockade of the black chains was incredibly dense, leaving them not a single window of opportunity.

"Interesting!"

Wang Teng stroked his chin, a rare touch of solemnity appearing in his eyes.

Though this was merely a peak high-tier Demon Emperor-level technique that had yet to reach the low-tier Demon Venerable level.

In his eyes, the current prowess of this technique was already comparable to a low-tier Demon Venerable-level skill.

Now that this technique had also reached the grandmaster tier, it had spared Wang Teng an immeasurable amount of labor.

From initiation to grandmaster, spanning five whole tiers!

If this were the outside world, others would likely not even dare to dream of such a thing.

This was a peak high-tier Demon Emperor-level technique; even if a low-tier Demon Venerable were to cultivate it, it would require a vast investment of time.

Wang Teng reaching it in a single step would undoubtedly drive countless people mad with envy.

"Lazymist Chains!"

He murmured the name of the battle technique to himself, and then, something suddenly crossed his mind.

Demon Moth Chains!

That was a somewhat similar technique, both of them being skills that combined control and offense.

"I wonder if these two techniques can be fused?"

Wang Teng's eyes flickered slightly as this thought abruptly entered his mind.

He had fused too many techniques recently, which had spoiled him to the point where he wanted to fuse things at every turn.

Even if the system failed to fuse them, he could attempt to merge them himself.

These two techniques indeed shared a certain degree of similarity; it was merely a matter of differing energies.

If they could be combined, he would obtain a technique that simultaneously possessed the Power of Sloth and the Power of the Demon Moth.

Wang Teng waited for a brief moment.

Just as he began to think the two techniques could not be merged, the words "Fusible" finally materialized gradually behind them.

That belated appearance felt almost as if it were playing tricks on him.

"..."

Wang Teng fell silent for a moment, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

Damn it!

Swearing a curse in his mind, he immediately murmured the command to "fuse."

Fuse them fiercely for me!

Demon Moth Chains + Lazymist Chains = Demon Moth Lazymist Chains (Low-tier Demon Venerable level): 12500/15000 (Proficient);

"Demon Moth Lazymist Chains!"

Wang Teng was truly filled with a powerful urge to criticize the name, but in the end, he kept the complaint to himself.

Forget it, he should have guessed it long ago.

Simple and direct, it was actually quite good, wasn't it.

Just as he had suspected, this new battle technique perfectly fused the characteristics of the two previous ones, simultaneously containing the power of the Demon Moth and the Inert Fog, which pleased him immensely.

It really could not be better suited for ambushing people.

"It is just a pity that this Demon Moth Inert Fog Chain is still only at the lower-tier Demon Venerable level!"

Wang Teng sighed in his heart.

The Demon Moth Chain was at least a lower-tier Demon Venerable battle technique, yet after fusing the two techniques, it remarkably remained at the lower-tier Demon Venerable level.

Could it be that the Inert Fog Chain held it back?

After all, it was ultimately just a peak upper
