1091: Chapter 1091: Trembling City of Rong Guang (Extra Large Chapter for Monthly Ticket) 1091: Chapter 1091: Trembling City of Rong Guang (Extra Large Chapter for Monthly Ticket) City of Rong Guang
Blood-red sunlight shone upon seas of fire, casting an eerie glow across the sky as twisted humanoid figures climbed out of the flas, gathering densely beneath the High Tower.
An intangible yet bizarre sense of oppression, along with so twisted whispers, spread out as the horde of monsters approached.
The air was filled with the crackling ‘pop-pop’ sound of burning wooden decorations, which felt like silent drumbeats pounding on everyone’s heart.
Ruilin lifted her head and swept her gaze over the approaching monsters.
These monsters seed to have completely lost their sanity, moving forward blankly, yet their actions were eerily uniform.
As if an invisible will extended itself, surrounding the massive Obelisk.
These humanoid monsters were not very powerful; perhaps we could hold on for a while longer.
Thinking this, she struggled to rise from the ground.
Boom—
Just at that mont, a roar as loud as thunder exploded in the sky, shaking everyone’s eardrums.
“Ah—”
Beside her, Riley clutched at her chest, suddenly curling up.
“Riley!
Ah—”
Ruilin reached out her hand, then her whole body stiffened, the relaxation montary as she violently curled up.
Dense, bright red spots seeped from the woman’s skin, splitting into wounds that grew larger and larger.
As if millions of blades were piercing her skin, slowly stabbing deeper into her flesh.
Originally clutching her heart, Riley lifted her head, looking at her sister covered in wounds, struggling to reach out her hand and grasping Ruilin’s.
She tried to lift her head, seeking help from the seemingly omnipotent young man behind her.
“Ah—”
But in the next second, an excruciating, heart-gouging pain emanated from her chest, the intense stabbing causing her muscles to tense up instantly, almost completely losing control over her body.
She could only watch as the wounds on Ruilin’s skin deepened, sweat seeping from her twisted, pained forehead.
Ruilin lifted her head, looking at her sister, trying to say sothing, but the severe pain pulled at her muscles, forcing her to utter only “Heh—Heh—”.
Riley used all her strength, desperately trying to grasp her sister’s hand.
In that mont, the tide-like severe pain briefly subsided, and she struggled to turn her head to look at the young man standing behind her.
She suddenly saw that the seemingly invincible young man’s skin too was cracking open with bloody fissures as if pierced by the sa millions of blades.
As she gazed at him, the young man also turned his head, looking at her with puzzled and pained eyes, his voice calm, “Soone is controlling this city, performing a ritual.”
Performing a ‘ritual’?
In that mont, she recalled the words of the flesh-mountain monster.
They wanted to kill her loved ones, rip open her heart in her agony and despair.
Because the high-class elites had once implanted sothing inside her body; she was rely a vessel.
Now, they wanted to cut open this vessel to take that thing out.
As she thought, a tidal wave of intense pain surged from her chest once more, causing her muscles to uncontrollably spasm and tighten.
Monts later, with the brief subsidence of pain, Riley looked up again at the young man behind her.
Although his voice remained calm just now, she sohow could sense.
This ‘Mr.
Hao Yi’, his strength was depleted, his body on the verge of breaking, practically stepping on the threshold of death.
He was dying.
Those dense wounds were also scattered across Mr.
Hao Yi’s body.
The city intended to kill not just her loved ones, but also the friend she had just t.
As the intense tidal pain surged again, accompanied by another tightening of muscles, she suddenly realized sothing.
These pains were using her muscle instincts to limit her ability to move.
Until the ritual was over, she could not die; she had to remain in despair, watching her family and friends die in the most painful way in front of her, until her heart was cut open.
She stared at the bronze sword in the distance, struggling to move.
But in the next second, intense pain seized her body, causing her to temporarily lose control of it.
“Ah—ah—”
A difficult roar ca from in front of her; she held her sister’s hand, feeling a bit of strength.
She knew that her sister was reminding her not to do anything foolish.
Her body curled up, the droplets on her cheeks reflecting the blood-red sunlight.
The wounds covering Ruilin’s body were growing deeper, and the grip on her hand was weakening.
She heard faint stumbling sounds behind her, as if the person behind her could no longer stand upright.
Crowds of humanoid monsters were stepping on the shattered marble, surrounding them.
She watched her sister’s cheeks grow paler, and observed a painful smile form as if to say goodbye.
She felt the grip on her hand growing weaker until it vanished.
She opened her mouth, intending to scream sothing.
“Uh—”
A humanoid monster appeared in front of her, suddenly grabbed her neck and lifted her, its sharp claws piercing her chest.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the dense monsters encircling ‘Mr.
Hao Yi’.
It seed so monsters were killed, but the encirclent was tightening.
She felt a stabbing pain in her chest, those sharp claws piercing her heart.
The monster was trying to split open her heart.
She gazed at the grotesque, indifferent monster in front of her, wanting to struggle but imdiately tensed up due to severe pain.
If there really are Divine Beings in this world, why couldn’t They bestow even a little Grace to save the people in despair?
Her sister always taught her kindness, justice, and bravery, a lifeti of lessons.
And now, they were to die in helpless despair, for the greed of those high above.
Vaguely, she saw Mr.
Hao Yi turning his head to look at her.
Then, she watched as Mr.
Hao Yi raised his head.
She too lifted her head, looking towards the blood-red sky.
Above that firmant, a glint of light flashed.
Very dazzling, very bright.
Then, that brilliance swiftly expanded before her eyes and fell like all-penetrating Thunder in front of her.
It seed to last only a mont, yet felt eternally long.
She felt her body falling from the sky, and the monster that had lifted her was lting in that brilliant light.
A roaring sound ca from behind, seemingly from so heavy object smashing to the ground.
She fell to the ground but didn’t collapse, as a pale, delicate hand caught her.
The blood-red sunlight mingled with that dazzling light, shining on a girl with grey-gold hair in front of her.
The breathtakingly beautiful girl, dressed in a simple classical maid outfit, had clear, jade-like skin and a pair of beautiful amber eyes staring calmly yet emptily at her.
This was the first ti Riley saw soone so beautiful; she couldn’t describe her feelings in words.
She felt that if there were really angels in this world, they should be like this.
The angelic girl slowly pulled her up, then raised her hand, and the bronze sword stuck in the ground flew into her hand.
The girl then handed the sword to Riley.
Riley numbly accepted the bronze sword.
Then she saw the angelic girl step aside.
In the direction that had just been obscured by the girl, the lifeless Ruilin lay quietly; a humanoid monster stood next to her, raising its sharp claws.
A fla of anger instantly filled the girl’s heart.
That pure despair ignited the most surging fire.
She didn’t hesitate at all, grabbing the bronze sword and charging out fiercely, stabbing the monster that swung its blade towards Riley.
The bronze sword pierced through the monster’s body as easily as piercing through paper.
The monster’s twisted eyes widened, staring dumbfoundedly at the girl in front of it, seemingly puzzled as to why she could kill it so effortlessly.
Traces of luxurious silk and gilded thread patterns, still clinging to the monster’s body, proclaid its once ‘noble’ status.
Riley also stared dumbfoundedly at the monster in front of her, and at the bronze sword in her hand.
Under her gaze, the twisted monster quickly decayed, turning into dust.
And so invisible force was being generated within her body.
‘Sacrifice’ price, receiving ‘Grace.’
A certain thought erged in her mind.
The next second, she lifted her head to look at the monsters erging from the flas and charged out without any hesitation.
And behind her, the girl with ash-golden hair spread her arms, floating up into the sky, gazing at the surging sea of fire and the distorted monsters within it.
Her amber eyes suddenly collapsed inward, the pitch-black eye sockets reflecting countless shattered spatial fragnts.
A horrific and terrifying pressure spread instantly under the entire firmant, causing countless mindless monsters to halt briefly, looking up at the sky above.
The next second, countless rays of invisible pressure descended from the sky, falling into the surging sea of fire.
These rays criss-crossed, forming a vast three-dinsional light net, destroying everything within the flas, even the blood-colored sunlight seed to lose so of its hue under the illumination of this light.
And under the dazzling brilliance, accompanied by a faint rumble of thunder, a pair of boots covered with ice crystals stopped next to the lifeless Ruilin lying on the ground.
He Ao squatted down, pulled out a green dicinal fruit, and stuffed it into Ruilin’s mouth.
Soon, her previously motionless fingers twitched slightly.
Of course, Ruilin wasn’t dead.
Aware of the ‘ritual’ taking place, He Ao had transferred so Divine Sense into Ruilin’s body with the Shadowless Sword, protecting her energy collection points and core organs.
She had just fainted from the sheer pain, a form of bodily self-protection.
Assured that Ruilin’s body was beginning to recover, He Ao took out a can from his pocket and tossed it behind him.
The invisible sword blade pierced through the monsters surrounding ‘Mr.
Hao Yi’ in an instant, clearing a path.
The can thrown across the sky naturally landed in ‘Mr.
Hao Yi’s’ hands.
Mr.
Hao Yi took a piece of at out of the can and threw it into his mouth, then turned his head to look at the monster beside him.
A piece of at from the Nutritional Canned Food could briefly recover half of his injuries.
The invisible sword blade instantly pierced through one monster after another erging from the sea of fire, like a scythe mowing grass, cutting down swathes of these monsters which then rapidly rotted away.
He Ao raised his head, looking at the other side of the sea of fire.
At the end of his gaze, Riley was rushing without hesitation towards the monsters erging from the sea of fire, taking away the lives of these twisted monsters with each thrust of her sword.
Her movents lacked any particular style; she was just angrily, yet calmly, stabbing her sword into the bodies of these monsters.
Then, indifferently pulling it out and stabbing it into the next monster.
The bright lights falling from the sky were quickly sweeping across the sea of fire, ploughing through everything in the flas just like tilling the ground.
Just standing nearby, rely watching those lights, one could feel a divine pressure spreading outward.
This ti, the Light of the Firmant carried the Angel Designation from the maid doll.
Originally, He Ao only wanted to use this positional grade to suppress the pollution in the surrounding sea of fire while eliminating the monsters and concurrently restraining the rapid generation of twisted monsters.
But after attaching the High Positional Grade, the Light of the Firmant seed to have undergone a certain special ‘mutation.’
This miracle was itself a permanently solidified weaker version of the beam of light created by rging various high-grade forces during the last Blood Sun event.
Though it was a weakened version, this miracle was like a simple puzzle.
While it didn’t contain the ‘High Positional Grade’ piece, it was originally created with a space reserved for it.
When He Ao filled this gap with the maid doll’s Angel Designation, this miracle finally reached its ‘complete’ state, becoming the true ‘Light of the Firmant.’
Not only did it carry the ‘real damage’ of the high grade, but the light’s density and intensity were also enhanced.
Like loose cotton spun into solid fibers, then further solidified into a kind of ‘cotton needle,’ both the strength and hardness were greatly enhanced.
A ball of cotton thrown on paper causes no harm, but a high-compression solidified ‘cotton needle’ can pierce through the paper.
Expending the sa amount of power, even after excluding the real damage inherent to the positional grade, the Light of the Firmant could still inflict several tis, or even over ten tis, the original damage.
During crowd control, He Ao could also disperse more light beams, simultaneously dealing with more enemies.
However.
He Ao lifted his head and glanced at the maid doll above him.
The doll floating in the air had its eyes restored to their original amber color and began to descend from the sky.
Activating the positional grade and attaching it to the output would cause severe depletion for the maid doll, so it could only be used briefly.
And as the maid doll slowly descended, the brilliance falling from the sky also gradually subsided.
And that surging sea of fire, rare in its quietness, cald down as well.
In the silent flas, no new monsters were spawned.
All the living monsters inside were wiped out under that brief plowing brilliance, even the pollution dissipating around them fell into quietude at this mont.
Those monsters themselves were Rong Guang Society soldiers and mbers converging to this place, directly transford into monsters by the pollution of this city, and still attracting more people here.
He Ao’s Light of the Firmant with positional grade briefly suppressed the power of the city, dispersed most of the pollution, and paused the transformation of monsters.
Of course, this suppression could only last a very short ti, and once the pollution concentration was sufficient, the transformation would continue.
From the recent trend, the later transford monsters would also be more powerful.
In the batch of monsters dealt with by the Light of the Firmant, the ones that ca later were already stronger.
“Ah!”
At this mont, Riley also stabbed the last monster to death.
She held the bronze sword, looking down at the decaying corpse on the ground, gasping heavily.
A few tears slid from the corners of her eyes, then turned into silent sobs.
The sobbing woke Ruilin, who was lying on the ground.
She struggled to sit up, then felt the pill contained in her mouth.
He Ao, standing in front of her, turned back, looked at her, pointed to her mouth, gently shook his head, signaling her not to swallow.
She looked at the unfamiliar youth in front of her, blinked slightly, and then gently nodded.
Then she shifted her gaze towards Riley, who was crying by the fireside.
Slowly standing up, she walked over, gently reaching out to touch the girl’s shoulder.
Feeling that familiar touch, Riley unconsciously turned around and embraced the figure behind her, sobbing, “My sister is dead, I no longer have a sister.”
She tried to suppress her crying, but her voice still uncontrollably echoed, reverberating beside the surging flas.
Then, as she cried, she suddenly realized sothing, reaching out to touch the back of the person she embraced.
Then she raised her head, and saw Ruilin’s gently smiling cheeks.
She sniffled, stunned for a mont, then raised her hand, sowhat unbelievingly pinched the face of the person in front of her.
Ruilin slowly raised her hand, embracing her sister.
He Ao withdrew his gaze, looking to his side.
At that mont, ‘Mr.
Hao Yi’ walked beside He Ao, handing him a yellow crystal from his pocket.
He Ao took out a blue crystal, placing both crystals together.
Then he turned around, looking at the towering obelisk behind him, observing the K character painted in red, yellow, and blue colors on the obelisk.
How to use these two crystals to open the passage to the ‘Sky-Piercing Tower’ was sothing he initially obtained from the vice-president ‘Tiger Cane’s’ mind.
Simply use these two crystals together to trace an oval Array.
Then place the two crystals at both ends of the Array, and the person who wants to enter the Sky-Piercing Tower should stand in the center of the Array and recite the ritual words, which would open the pathway to the Sky-Piercing Tower.
The creeping sound of movent ca from around them, under that blood-colored sunlight, as if pairs of eyes had opened, gazing at the base of the High Tower.
However, He Ao did not use the crystals in his hand to trace the Array.
Beside him, ‘Mr.
Hao Yi’ raised his hand, a stream of flowing ash flew out of his pocket, appearing before the obelisk, subsequently forming into a lightly glowing page.
An illusion of a planet, both three-dinsional and flat, erged on that page.
He Ao reached out, throwing both crystals toward the page.
At that instant, He Ao distinctly felt those ‘eyes’ watching him from the void flicker uncontrollably, and the entire city trembled violently.
