Within the Divine Domain, a figure swiftly moved, Ban Long—half-human, half-beast—struck repeatedly as if his attacks were carelessly ignored by the shadowy figure in black. However, the attacks of the shadowy figure always left clear marks on him, as copious amounts of blood were plundered in close combat.
It seemed his attacks were meaningless, but Ban Long felt very clearly that the Catastrophe Curse on him was intensifying, meaning that the Black Light which superficially ignored his injuries was only on the surface; in reality, Zheng Yichen's physical condition was rapidly deteriorating.
Vampiric recovery? How much could that restore his state? Ban Long decided not to fight recklessly anymore. Zheng Yichen was now essentially utilizing Shallow Grave, surviving by vampirically siphoning blood through close combat; otherwise, knowing the terrible state he was in, he still chose to fight in close combat.
