The downgrader made his debut from the black light.
Of course, Zen knew that this black light was essential to the downgrader. His real body was most likely hidden within it.
Previously, Zen had attempted to destroy the black light with the Destruction Extreme Form, but in the end, he only failed.
Now that he realized his attacks couldn't hurt the downgrader even the slightest bit, he once again fixed his attention on the black light.
It was impossible to destroy the black light just by relying on the Destruction Extreme Form; however, Zen discovered a theurgy in Clarence's memories.
"Light Clearing Skill!"
A circular ring of light floated towards the black light and enveloped it, now beginning to rotate.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As the ring of light revolved, the black light also swayed non-stop.
"Is it taking effect?"
Zen observed as his eyelids twitched slightly.
He had tried several other methods before, but none of them could affect the black light even a little. The black light seemed to be in another world.
Now, the Light Clearing Skill could actually impact the black light, which brought Zen a glimmer of hope.
"Contract!"
Buzz! Buzz!
The ring of light then contracted inward from its rotating motion.
The moment the edge of the ring of light touched the black light, the black light shrunk slightly and surprisingly freed itself from the ring of light's control.
"The black light escaped?"
Zen frowned and pointed at it with his finger. He deployed the Light Clearing Skill once more.
One hundred rings.
One thousand rings.
Ten thousand rings.
Over ten thousand rings of light continuously appeared, all rotating and contracting at the same time. The black light started to shake violently, but without any further effect from the rings.
"You're really stupid, aren't you? Instead of putting up a fight, you actually want to destroy my Source Light." The downgrader suddenly appeared above Zen's head. He had already dealt with the energy flow released by Zen.
Zen raised his hands and stared at the downgrader without saying anything. He then drew his hands closer to the black light. Fingernail-sized crystals started to float out from his palms, gathering towards the black light.
Da! Da! Da!
With a faint shattering sound, the small crystals merged into the black light.
One by one, the crystals emitted a small dull green light as they broke. Soon, the black light was entirely colored green, and at the same time, turned into a solid object.
This was another way of changing the shape and form of light.
After the crystals had solidified the black light, Zen immediately yanked his fist and punched it forcefully.
Boom!
The solidified black light was smashed into pieces.
However, the broken black light remained floating in its place.
The downgrader, standing with crossed arms, didn't have any intention of attacking Zen at all. Instead, his eyes flashed with a faint yellow light as he showed a mocking expression.
There were a great number of theurgies in Clarence's memories, all of which had been extracted from the Extreme Form energies. Many of them were indeed worth a try.
Every time that Zen did, he looked at the downgrader and observed his reaction. Not a single theurgy was able to make the downgrader flinch. His face stayed plain and unbothered.
After Zen failed six or seven times in a row, the quiet Clarence finally broke his silence. "It's useless, Zen. The Source Light is the privilege I gave him. It can't be destroyed."
"Privilege?" Zen was stunned as he heard what Clarence just said.
