Chapter 1656: Chapter 1657: Transform into Spirit Chapter 1656: Chapter 1657: Transform into Spirit The Abyssal demonization aura was not sothing to be trifled with. The youth had only slightly co into contact with a wisp of it, but his whole fingertip instantly turned black. At the sa ti, it spread downward at an alarming speed. In a mont, one joint had already turned black, emitting a faint black aura and even fine scales began to protrude slowly from the surface of the joint.
A wave of intense pain surged from his finger, and the youth’s complexion drastically changed. With his left hand, he drew a dagger from his waist. It was a Spell Blade of Epic Quality, all of its attributes focused on increasing intelligence and spirit, a specialized blade for mages.
However, as a dagger, it retained its basic sharpness, and the youth, with a backhand slice, severed the finger that had been contaminated by an entire joint.
The cut-off finger fell to the ground, and within a few seconds, it was completely eroded by the demonic aura. A few more seconds passed, and the entire finger turned into black ash and scattered.
Devoid of life force, all that remained of the demonic aura was destruction!
“Roka, what are you doing?” Wang Qi looked towards the youth in surprise, not understanding why he had done this.
“Demonization, it’s actually the Abyssal demonization effect, hahaha~” Clenching his bleeding finger, the youth showed no concern for his wound. He looked up at the omnipresent black mist in the sky, his face revealing a hint of excitent.
“Abyssal demonization effect? What does that an?” Wang Qi, sowhat puzzled, asked with a frown.
A smile appeared on the corner of Song Jian’s mouth. It must have been the effect of the Magic Dragon’s core, although he wondered if the Abyssal Demonic Aura would have any harmful effects on the residents of the City of Hope.
“From now on, the City of Hope will no longer fear being besieged!” The youth looked towards Wang Qi and Song Jian, his eyes complex as he couldn’t help but exclaim.
“What do you an, not fear being besieged?” Wang Qi shuddered. Any city could be conquered if the enemy’s numbers were sufficient to continuously assault the city’s defenses.
Even a Legendary Level defensive Magic Array would be worn down by the relentless onslaught of monsters, leading to the city’s fall.
In the previous Abyssal invasion, many cities fell precisely because they were overwheld by massive hordes of Abyssal creatures.
“This is the effect of Abyssal demonization. Any creatures within the black mist will succumb to the Abyssal demonization aura and eventually turn into monsters. Moreover, these monsters are bound by the demonic black mist and cannot escape its control. Even creatures that enter it will end up fighting each other due to the erosion of the demonization black mist…” Roka took a deep breath and ticulously explained.
“What, then what about the city’s inhabitants, could they…?” Wang Qi asked, visibly shaken.
“As long as they don’t recklessly run into the black mist, it won’t affect the entire city at all!” Roka shook his head, pointing to the shroud of black mist surrounding the city, “The original Protection Black Mist Array has rged with the Abyssal demonization aura to beco a unified array. From now on, you can still control the Protection Black Mist Array and also the Ocean God’s Protection Array. It’s like having two control systems that do not interfere with each other. This, this is practically a composite array, its tier far exceeding that of the ordinary Legendary Level!”
“So, we’ve actually gained from this, hahaha!” Wang Qi laughed heartily.
“What if the city is invaded by Abyssal creatures?” Song Jian suddenly asked, “Abyssal creatures are not affected by the Abyssal demonization aura.”
“Yeah, if Abyssal creatures invade, like in the previous scenario, wouldn’t our Magic Array be ineffective against them?” A startled Wang Qi asked urgently.
“It shouldn’t be…” Roka’s expression showed hesitation as he pondered and spoke, “This is the Ocean God’s Protection Array, not the Abyssal demonization array. Although the current effect is the Abyssal demonization aura, both in essence and nature are different from Abyssal demonization; it’s only the surface that appears the sa…”
“However, to know whether it is effective against Abyssal creatures, it would be best to capture a few Abyssal creatures and test them in the black mist…” Roka said sowhat uncertainly.
At first, there seed to be a distinction from the Abyssal Demonic Aura, but the more he looked, the more Roka felt that it was, in fact, the very Abyssal Demonic Aura itself.
Song Jian was also on tenterhooks, wondering if the Abyssal Demonic Aura would beco so concentrated that it might truly summon a gate of darkness. If such a gate were to be summoned outside the City of Hope, Song Jian feared he might weep to death.
Seeing Roka uncertain, Wang Qi felt his heart grow cold. He turned to look at Song Jian and, seeing his expressionless face, Wang Qi’s anxiety mounted.
Fortunately, the second phase also went smoothly. The Abyssal Demonic Aura eventually took shape and lded with the Protection Black Mist Array, completely enveloping the area of several hundred ters outside the City of Hope.
“We’re on the third phase now, the most critical one. If it fails, the entire Magic Array will be dood…” Roka beca tense, and his hands involuntarily clenched into fists.
“You said that even if the spirit manifestation fails, it wouldn’t cause any damage to the city…” Wang Qi, seeing Roka so nervous, beca even more worried.
“If it were a regular Legendary Level Magic Array, a construction failure would result at most in wasted materials…” Roka glanced at the thick, swirling black mist outside the city and revealed a bitter smile, continuing, “But with our Magic Array, if the construction fails, the demonic aura outside the city will beco unbound, out of control, and the consequences, as you can imagine, would be dire…”
Song Jian’s lips twitched uncontrollably with irritation. As you can imagine, a ghost would know! Weren’t you so confident earlier that there would be no problem? Why are there so many issues now that the construction has started?
Thankfully, the third phase seed to be progressing smoothly. Over a hundred nodes of the Magic Array lit up simultaneously once again, energy flowed steadily, and after a short period, a semi-transparent phantom slowly rose above the city.
“This is…” Roka squinted towards it.
The key to the Sea God’s Protection Array was spirit manifestation; this ‘spirit’ served as the soul of the entire Magic Array, its role sowhat similar to that of the city’s guardian beast, automatically manifesting to protect the entire city when attacked.
“The more formidable the creature, the more powerful the spirit manifestation will be!” Roka seed to regain so confidence and continued, “For our Magic Array, we’ve used a core from a divine creature. The spirit manifested from this will undoubtedly be formidable.”
No sooner had he spoken than a colossal phantom of a dragon turtle enveloped the city’s skyline. From the body of this phantom dragon turtle, a terrifying presence pulsed, causing monsters within hundreds of miles to cower on the ground, too frightened to move. The terror of a divine creature was evident!
“This presence is comparable to that of a true divine creature!” Roka trembled with excitent. The main reason he had been willing to co and construct this Magic Array was to witness with his own eyes the kind of spirit that would manifest during the third phase, using the core of a true divine creature as the center of the Array.
“Is that all?” Song Jian squinted at the dragon turtle phantom in midair. Although the phantom appeared to have a strong aura, Song Jian still felt a trace of disappointnt, recognizing a disparity between it and the divine guardian creature he had envisioned.
Just then, as if provoked, the dragon turtle phantom began to struggle violently, twisting its body and emitting deafening roars.
Pff~
Roka suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and, with a pale face, whispered, “Spirit backlash, how could this be…”
