1090: Chapter 1090: The Third Rong Guang Emblem (Extra Long Chapter, Asking for Monthly Tickets) 1090: Chapter 1090: The Third Rong Guang Emblem (Extra Long Chapter, Asking for Monthly Tickets) Under the warmth of her leather coat, Lin Chichi felt her strength slightly restored.
She struggled to turn her head to look ahead.
Beneath that dazzling brilliance was the back of a tall young man.
Intense flas spread from the knight sword in his hand to his body, enveloping his entire figure.
Then, this surging fla rapidly contracted at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a thin layer of black phantom.
They covered the young man’s body like a light knight’s armor, and also covered the Holy Heart sword in his hand.
The flas were so concentrated that they dyed the entire silvery blade of the Holy Heart sword pitch-black, with no escaping brilliance, only the surrounding distorted air faintly revealing the scorching of the flas.
Lin Chichi was sowhat entranced as she watched this scene; she had never imagined that the Holy Heart sword could assu such a state.
She thought she was not far from the true limit of this sword, but now it seed she had only taken the first step on a hundred-ter track with this sword.
Just to the limit she could endure.
Shimring brilliance once more filled the girl’s field of view, as well as that of Zennany under the cloudy sky.
The silver-haired girl calmly gazed at He Ao, who was walking step by step with the knight sword, the corners of her mouth slightly lifted, “He Ao?
I thought you were going to hunker down like a turtle in Mote City for a lifeti.”
He Ao did not respond to her but continued walking slowly forward, sword in hand.
Feeling his indifferent attitude, Zennany still wore a smile,
“It seems you are quite confident?
I enjoy people with your kind of arrogance the most, breaking their confidence and pride is exceptionally interesting.
“I thought I would have to make a special trip to Mote City to deal with you after handling affairs, but you’ve co to on your own.”
She raised her hand, and a blue brilliance far stronger than before burst from her hand, “Let’s see if the hero of this legendary story is truly as powerful as the legends say.”
Twisted and violent whispers erupted in this instant, in the darkness.
Leaves under the cloudy sky and uprooted trees fluttered, painting their green veins with a hue of bronze.
That twisted whisper burrowed into Lin Chichi’s ears, echoing in her mind as if sharp hands with nails were stirring inside her brain, grabbing her scalp from within, trying to tear her head apart.
anwhile, she was slightly startled and gently rubbed her fingers, the intense pain that had previously covered her fingers was rapidly fading, and her skin seed to gradually lose sensation, becoming harder.
She struggled to lift a hand, looking at the flesh bloodied.
A slight diffusion of bronze was covering her fingertips; her skin, along with her flesh, was rapidly transforming into bronze.
Her gaze shifted to the surrounding disoriented crowd; they were still unconscious, but that did not stop the bronze color from spreading on their bodies.
The ground filled with cracks trembled under He Ao’s feet; burlier new bronze tendrils than before suddenly burst from underground, swaying their bodies, carrying twisted whispers, sweeping towards He Ao.
Although Zennany still verbally underestimated He Ao, she still exerted much more strength than she did against Rudel and Lin Chichi, likely due to the influence of the heavenly brilliance.
Boom—
The massive bronze tendril slamd into the ground, further shattering the already cracked earth.
And just in front of the slamming tendril, the young man holding the knight sword still maintained his pace, slowly advancing.
The huge tendril seed to just graze by the young man’s body, almost shattering his physique.
Seeing this scene, Zennany’s smiling brows slightly raised.
Booms booms boom—
Following that, one after another, huge bronze tendrils descended from the sky, aiming at the young man below.
But each ti, as if by a series of coincidental accidents, these tendrils always missed the young man.
The young man continued to maintain his initial pace forward, as if the tendrils intentionally avoided his body.
Zennany smiled as she watched this scene, her hands slightly open.
The bronze tendrils around He Ao instantly shattered, reassembling into bronze giants wielding various weapons like knives, clubs, etc., smashing towards He Ao, trying to block his path.
But those bronze giants blocking He Ao, as if by coincidence, missed their attacks, and those behind him, no matter how, could not catch up to his seemingly slow, natural stride.
In an instant, he had already passed through those bronze figures and the connecting brilliance of heaven and earth, about to reach Zennany.
“Being the protagonist of a legendary story, you indeed have sothing special.”
Zennany chuckled lightly, watching the young man walking step by step, “But, it ends here.”
Those bronze giants swirling around her suddenly shattered under the blue glow, transforming into a sturdy hemispherical barrier that enveloped her.
Blue radiance diffused across the surface of this barrier.
If one looked closely, it could be seen that the barrier was composed of dozens of overlapping layers of Lin Chichi’s passport, with the shimring blue light connecting between these layers, forming an invisible Array that seed to reinforce the structure.
“This was originally prepared for my beloved and favored vice president,”
She looked at He Ao with calm eyes, her smile unchanging, “Now, let’s have you try it first.”
The mont her words fell, the surrounding space seed to ripple and undulate.
This ti, He Ao finally raised his head, glanced at the pitch-black space around him, but only for a mont.
His steps remained calm and unhurried, as if nothing around him was happening.
Seeing this, Zennany slightly narrowed her eyes, let out a disappointed sigh,
“I had hoped you would bring a little surprise, but never mind, I’ll turn you into an alchemical puppet, and then make puppets out of your friends and subordinates as well, so you all can work for .”
She raised her hand, let out a soft sigh, and clenched the blue radiance in her hand, “It’s over.”
In that instant, next to where the bronze appendage was just shattered by the radiance, several fine, snake-like bronze tendrils erged from the ground, their sharp tips aid at everyone’s hearts.
A new appendage also burst forth from the middle of the earth, towering over Lin Chichi’s head.
At the sa ti, the ground under Zennany’s feet also thunderously shattered, causing the surrounding few hundred ters of land to tremble violently.
The huge disk-shaped bronze chanical body made of intertwining appendages tore apart the earth, crushed tall buildings, under the towering clouds, revealed its body size not much smaller than the swirling sky.
At this mont, Zennany stood at the very center of this bronze chanical body, with bronze tendrils below continuously arching upwards, elevating her.
She looked down from a high perspective at He Ao, who was still walking forward step by step along the arched bronze tendrils between the shattered cent and earth, her voice cold and calm,
“I said, I will beco the ruler of this world,”
As the chanical tendrils wriggled, the corrupted darkness fell silent for a mont.
Then in the next second, dazzling radiance burst forth around He Ao amidst the fading dark, with countless bronze spikes suddenly materializing from the void, and at a speed nearly invisible to the naked eye, shot forth, targeting He Ao standing at the very center of the darkness.
“From today, I will stand at the very top of the pyramid.”
Zennany no longer looked at He Ao, her gaze sweeping over the severely injured Lin Chichi, over the dispirited shadows around her, her cold voice resonating beneath the huge vortex.
The sharp spikes filled the area where the youth was, piercing through everything in the darkness.
Zennany looked around satisfactorially, watching the fine bronze tendrils again stab towards everyone’s hearts.
A smile curled up on her lips again.
However, the next second, the smile on her face froze.
Through the barrier flickering with hazy radiance, she saw that calm Central Earth youth’s face.
The youth from Central Earth appeared before her as if by teleportation, stepping on the arched bronze tendrils, and for the first ti raised his head to look directly at her.
Those deep eyes, flickering with orange-gray nested halos, were imprinted into Zennany’s field of view.
In that instant, she felt as if a sharp sword blade had pierced her soul, all her flesh and spirit were transparently exposed under the youth’s gaze.
The whole world seed to have only those deep eyes left.
The next second, she clenched the blue radiance in her hand tightly.
Countless bronze tendrils surged forth from in front of her and behind her, enveloping the youth in front.
anwhile, the youth simply raised the sword in his hand that was burning with a dark fla, slanting upwards, gently swiping.
A dazzling radiance burst forth from the slender blade in an instant, the surging brilliance suddenly illuminated everything around it.
As if the sun, obscured by clouds, was now rekindled on the earth, spewing a hundred ters high brilliance.
Heavy strike, power amplification 25%.
The seemingly sturdy passport shattered under the scorching sword light, like fragile sugar glass.
And the sword light, without any pause, although still gently lifted, sped up a bit.
Second Burst, further amplifying 35% power.
Dazzling blue brilliance erupted from Zennany’s hand, seemingly gathering for a final strike.
At the sa ti, her hand also reached out, seemingly trying to grab the incoming sword blade.
At this mont, a huge eyeball encased in an inverted triangle phantom shadow erged in the sky, casting a glance at the blue radiance held in Zennany’s hand.
Following that, the radiance slowly faded away as if erased by an eraser.
Zzzt—
The searing blade severed Zennany’s outstretched palm, sliced through her body, shattered the nearly integrated five energy gathering points inside her, and bisected her body.
Her blood had not yet flowed out when it was dried by the flas, emitting a sizzling sound.
She stared wide-eyed, dumbfoundedly watching all this unfold, as her bisected body leaned backward and fell from the sky.
At that instant, those massive bronze tentacles also crumbled, turning into greenish dust.
“How—could—this—”
As Zennany’s upper body fell from the sky, she struggled to open her palm, staring at the blue radiance in her palm and the scattered bronze fragnts around, her eyes filled with disbelief, “I am supposed to be the winner—”
And as she opened her hand, the blue radiance also drifted away, leaving her body and mixing with the bronze fragnts.
She stared wide-eyed, watching all this unfold, and completely lost her voice.
He Ao’s figure followed the scattering dust down, gazing at the silver-haired girl who lay on the ground, her face still showing the last mont of shock and confusion.
A bit too dramatic, young lady.
He reached out, and the falling blue radiance precisely landed into his palm.
It was a geotric chanical sphere.
Following Zennany’s death, this chanical sphere seed to have also lost its vitality, its exterior beca dim, only the inside still flickered with so blue radiance.
He Ao gently exerted force, and the entire sphere was instantly crushed, revealing a blue crystal in his palm.
The Emblem of Glory.
He Ao turned around and walked towards the direction from which he ca; behind him, Zennany’s corpse along with the enormous bronze tentacles which turned into dust promptly decayed, transforming into pure energy that rged into the jade pendant on his chest.
Soon, he returned to Lin Chichi’s side.
Lin Chichi stared wide-eyed at He Ao as he slowly approached, her gaze sowhat vacant.
She seed still imrsed in everything that had just transpired.
Her current strength could barely catch He Ao’s movents.
In her field of view, she only saw He Ao swiftly moving forward, then raising his sword and shattering Zennany’s shell and instantly defeating Zennany.
This made her feel like the process was sowhat too dream-like, surreal.
Has the version been updated to this extent already?
Seeing Lin Chichi with a facial expression as if paused, He Ao reached out and thrust the Holy Heart Sword into the ground beside her, squatting next to her, and softly asked, “How bad is it?”
“I’m still alive!”
Lin Chichi was awakened from her shock by He Ao’s voice and imdiately responded with a laugh.
She glanced at her fingers that had just started to turn bronze, found they had returned to their original look, although still sowhat numb and a bit immature.
At the sa ti, she turned her head, smiled at He Ao, “Sir, your move was cool, I want to learn it.”
“You want to learn everything.”
He Ao chuckled dryly and gave her a playfully knock on the head, “Start with the basics.”
That one slash of his looked ordinary, but with the boost from Fist Technique and Martial Techniques, it had strength close to forty thousand; injecting over a few thousand strength into Lin Chichi’s body would explode her into a blood flower.
“Ouch.”
Lin Chichi pulled her head back, tucking half of her face into the jacket He Ao gave her, but after a short ti, she poked her head out again, looked at He Ao, and asked softly, “Sir, is brother Hao Yi also investigating the Rong Guang Society, how is it on his side…?”
He Ao glanced at this girl, knowing she was asking about Hao Yi’s safety, especially since the Zennany she encountered was so strong, she could only imagine Hao Yi facing even bigger troubles.
He looked at Lin Chichi’s peeking little head and her slightly worried little eyes, and smiled, “He’s fine.”
“Hehe”
Lin Chichi giggled while lying on the ground, then she tilted her head, observing He Ao’s expression, and cautiously said, “Sir, are you going to help brother Hao Yi?”
She struggled to sit up, face pulling a smile, “I can handle things here, I can do it.”
He Ao looked at her trembling hands supporting her body and her face, already flushed and taut, yet still forcing a relaxed smile.
He shook his head and pulled out a green fruit-like pill from his waist, “Put it in your mouth, do not swallow.”
Lin Chichi awkwardly glanced at He Ao, clapped her hands, and reached out to take the pill, putting it into her mouth.
It seed to be the sa kind of pill Yan Yue had given her previously, only darker in color.
As the pill entered her mouth, she felt a warm power dissolve and spread throughout her body.
This was another healing item made by Goya, but its effects were slow and not very effective on higher-level Transcendents, making it less useful in battles.
Nevertheless, He Ao had still sought out Goya to get a few, just in case.
He also made a request that Goya develop more types of healing dicines.
However, for a Transcendent like Lin Chichi, who wasn’t of high status and relied on Grace to exert her power, this dicine worked quite well.
The girl’s pale cheeks visibly regained color at a noticeable speed.
“Do you not have many of these healing dicines from Yan Yue?”
He Ao looked at her puzzled.
“Sister Yan Yue should have them,”
Lin Chichi gave an awkward smile, “But I forgot to ask her for so.”
This was her first ti handling such a situation; everything was rushed, and the plan itself was sloppy, many aspects weren’t considered.
“Rember to do so in the future.”
He Ao said gently.
“Of course.”
Lin Chichi gazed at ‘Mr.
He Ao’s’ profile and nodded quickly.
With the healing dicine taking effect, she slowly regained so energy and sat up from the ground.
Watching Lin Chichi gradually recover her ability to move, He Ao raised his hand and looked at the blue crystal in it.
The faint sound of a train passing vibrated through the void.
By the ti Lin Chichi looked up again, He Ao had disappeared from her view.
She looked up at the sky; the dark clouds gradually dissipated, and a bright ray of sunlight pierced through the center of the lingering vortex, shining on her blood-stained cheeks.
…
A short distance away, in a mountain hollow, He Ao erged from the Velora.
He picked up the blue crystal in his hand, gradually taking the form of that tall man who was in charge of the missing person’s case, a faint glow surrounding him.
That was the tall man from the Trok Republic’s Southern District, whom He Ao had replaced using the Cloak of Replacent.
‘Hao Yi’ had returned the Cloak of Replacent to the Velora before entering the base, and it wasn’t clear whether because it was the sa person or if the cloak itself could store an identity.
Switching between the original user and the clone using the Cloak of Replacent was fine.
Even the information of the replaced person was retained.
After all, the item originated from ‘Boss’ after his death, and He Ao was its first owner, so many details were not fully confird.
Contemplating this, He Ao picked up the blue crystal.
To open the gateway to the City of Rong Guang, apart from the Rong Guang Emblem, one also needed to carry so sort of ‘Rong Guang Mark’ on them.
The Book of Bygone Days page had already been taken inside by ‘Hao Yi’, so He Ao had to replicate the ‘Rong Guang Mark’ in another way.
The Cloak of Replacent would not just replace the appearance of the replaced person, but also their direction in Mysticism.
Unless a Higher Being with special abilities specifically ca to examine, in terms of Mysticism, He Ao was now the ‘tall man’.
He Ao raised his hand and quickly used the blue crystal to draw the olive-shaped pattern.
Then the pattern flickered once and did not vanish nor open any gateway.
Contemplating for a mont, He Ao then took out a gold diamond brooch from the white-robed man’s safe.
As he brought this brooch close to the olive-shaped pattern in front of him, a light glow erged from the brooch, and the Array inside the brooch seed to connect with the pattern.
Next second, the olive-shaped Array suddenly expanded and a circular pitch-black gate appeared in his field of view.
Indeed, the ‘brooch’ was a kind of key; the ‘protector’s’ status was not high enough, and without the key, one couldn’t enter the City of Rong Guang.
Shaking his head, He Ao gazed at the round gate.
The Velora passed behind him, carrying his figure into the gate.
