1100: Chapter 1110: Battlefield (Special Chapter for Monthly Pass) 1100: Chapter 1110: Battlefield (Special Chapter for Monthly Pass) Mottled starlight shines over the city beneath the blood-red radiance.
The points of light from the stars are not bright, even dim, but under this dim light, the raging Blood Sun also seems to lose its luster.
Twisted darkness envelops everything around, as if the whole space-ti has beco viscous, the brilliance of the Blood Sun can only wriggle within this darkness, with only the specks of stars casting their light upon the earth.
Soon, the pervasive starlight becos more and more noticeable, and the brilliance of the stars is more clearly reflected upon the grey glow that covers the entire pitch-black Abyss.
A howling wind rises in the air, and the cold starlight, like sharp spikes, pierces into that grey gleam.
And sensing sothing, the darkness enveloped by the light also violently stirs.
The darkness that was originally contained is spreading outwards once again.
The speeding train passes through towering buildings, taking away the sisters standing atop the buildings.
Outside the buildings, the crowd crawling on the ground has already fled swiftly towards the outer edges of the city.
The power of the earth rumbles, with He Ao using the power that was originally ant to constrain Ruoke En to lead the crowd away from the dark heart of the battlefield.
The ever-expanding darkness engulfs and squeezes everything around, towering buildings are torn apart like thin, brittle cookies, while the sturdy earth collapses like lting ice cream.
The darkness devours everything carelessly, and in the sky, the starlight is becoming ever more apparent.
It’s as if gazes from countless spacetis beyond are converging here, an invisible and terrifying power spreading from the starry sky above.
The Blood Sun still burns fiercely, only growing dimr and dimr.
And in the next instant, an even more surging grey radiance bursts forth from the pitch-black, profound darkness.
That light swiftly overtakes the expanding darkness, the flickering brilliance of the on-the-verge-of-shattering Array, covering the entire city.
Following that, the grey light begins to spread upwards rapidly, sweeping past the raging Blood Sun, crossing the shattered heavens, and covering the dazzling stars that seem to overlap with the sky, yet standing tall above it.
Those tiny stars twinkle, beams of light penetrate the grey gleam, like swords of starlight piercing through the entire Firmant.
The already fragnted sky cracks open to reveal more pieces, showing the twisting and wriggling fresh red flesh within.
This flesh ‘overlaps’ with the starlight in the sky, casting the entire heavens in an even more bizarre and twisted air.
The whole world darkens further, most of the Blood Sun’s radiance trapped around its periter, and from afar, one can only see a massive ball of blood-red light imprinted in the dim darkness.
Stimulated by the starlight, the pervasive grey light is violently thinned, but quickly, a constant stream of grey light bursts forth from the darkness.
In a brief ti, the twinkling starlight is gradually obscured by the grey light.
anwhile, the twisted expanding darkness is gradually suppressed by the grey light, with grey light constantly being devoured by darkness, and yet more grey light surges out from it.
In the sky, the stars flicker intensely, and a great gaze spanning spaceti is quickly converging, as if between those stars, a horrifying power is being nurtured.
At this mont, the originally sluggish grey light is forced to flicker at a much more ferocious pace.
The surge of light suddenly pours out from the depths of darkness, the Array covering the whole city pulsates violently, streaming with a strange yet brilliant light.
Countless powers converge towards the center of the city, then spread out from there.
Howling, fierce winds flutter under the dim sky, lifting everything off the land, tearing cracks in the buildings.
The speeding train, accompanied by the ‘creak creak’ sound, erges from the void, slowly moving through the void around the darkness.
Inside the train, He Ao looks up at the dim space outside the window.
In front of him, the distance of objects is no longer stable, and space-ti above and below seems to have beco disordered.
An object blown by the wind, previously far away from him, now seems to be within reach with an outstretched hand.
A sign, propelled forwards by a terrifying suction force, appears instantly behind and below the train.
An eyeball set within an inverted triangle erges from the void, rapidly rotating and sweeping across the surrounding heavens, smoothing out the ‘lines’ disturbed around the train.
In this region closest to the darkness, grey light, and starry sky, even space is twisted and torn apart.
And of these three, none are present at the scene.
He Ao’s gaze is fixed intently on the grey light.
The two ‘friends’ he had seen, their power colors were both grey, but dissimilar to this shade of grey.
His good friend’s power was grey-white, while God of Machinery’s power was pure grey.
The grey light he currently saw was fainter than those of the two he had seen before, but the power suffusing it was far more oppressive than what He Ao had previously felt from beings like Levi and the Abyssal Prisoner, including Angels.
There was a certain god-like grandeur in the light, yet it wasn’t quite the aura of a Divine Being.
He Ao raised his head, looking up at the starry sky above.
Among the stars, a peculiar and terrifying aura was gradually taking shape.
The Mysterious Shadow was sending more power over here.
Under the scrutiny of the Eye of Truth, He Ao could ‘see’ the temporal structure within the starlight distorting, as if to establish a fixed ‘Descent Point’.
rely witnessing the edge structure of that ‘Descent Point,’ He Ao distinctly felt the stars in the entire sky flicker for a mont.
Layers upon layers of intricate temporal structures flashed in his mind.
In that instant, so ‘Mysticism Knowledge’ regarding ‘Advent’ and ‘ti and space’ uncontrollably squeezed into his brain.
At the sa ti, a terrifying gaze from across ti and space, ‘swept’ over him.
The illusory eye set within the inverted triangle pulsed violently, vanishing into the void.
A dreadful contamination spread into He Ao’s mind, and violent blood burst from his skin, tearing open wounds that had just been repaired through the Life Force transmitted by the maid doll.
In a blink, he turned into a blood-soaked figure.
Even though he only ‘saw’ so peripheral structures, witnessing the slight extension of this Divine Power still attracted the gaze of the Divine Being.
However, the gaze of the Mysterious Shadow did not linger on He Ao; the brilliant starlight was intent on further distorting ti and space.
This ‘Divine Being’s’ interest in the Abyss far exceeded everything else.
anwhile, the grey brilliance seed to have sensed this as well, surging with an even more tumultuous aura, as the whole city’s Array burst forth with dazzling radiance.
Indeed, there were still issues with the city’s Array.
He Ao watched the dazzling burst of the Array, thoughts flickering in his mind.
The Arrays that were built by Ruoke En under the tutelage of the Hidden beings who passed down ‘knowledge’ hand to hand.
All the related information was taught by others; Ruoke En’s understanding might not reflect the true power of the Array.
He Ao reached out, casually wiping the blood sared over his eyes.
The contamination brought by the Mysterious Shadow to his brain hasted away quickly as the Mysterious Shadow’s gaze withdrew.
This wasn’t the first ti he was blasted into such a state by the contamination of a Higher Being; he had ample experience already.
Such level of residual damage was completely within the acceptable range for his current physical fitness.
That’s why he dared to ‘peek’ into the starry sky above.
Of course, the recent ‘peeking’ not only confird what the Mysterious Shadow was doing but also allowed He Ao to ‘attain’ so ‘Mysticism Knowledge’ about ‘Advent’ and ‘ti and space’ through this ‘Peeking into Mysticism.’
This Mysticism Knowledge was much more straightforward than the knowledge associated with his good friend, many of which He Ao could directly understand.
In this regard, his good friend wasn’t doing as well, not generous enough.
And while He Ao was pondering, the grey brilliance seed to have also reached its limit.
The surging radiance and the Arrays spanning the entire city converged together, illuminating even the previously unlit portions of the Array.
Clearly, the grey brilliance was unwilling to see the Mysterious Shadow truly project or ‘Arrive’ its power here.
Ding—
In the void sounded a crisp note as though invisible hands were strumming piano strings.
He Ao glanced sideways at his surroundings.
The Ruilin sisters, who had just been helped into the carriage, showed no reaction, as if they heard nothing.
Riley clutched at her chest, as if the red crystal inside her was acting up again.
Li Cheng, who was sitting in the corner recovering, seed to hear sothing, but it was not clear.
He lifted his head and looked towards He Ao.
Ding——
The crisp sound of piano strings rang out once more.
With the fluctuating lody of the strings, the expanding darkness flickered for a mont, gradually drawing together as if soone was turning off a ‘faucet’ pouring out the darkness.
He Ao lifted his head and looked towards the city center.
The Eye of Truth, set within an inverted triangle, slowly erged in the void outside the train.
In his field of view, the entire world transford into countless distorted lines and patterns.
This ti, he clearly ‘saw’ an invisible ‘hand’ reaching into those lines, gently tweaking the ‘strings’.
Ding——
The clear sound exploded in He Ao’s mind, crisp and bright.
This tone pierced through the multitudes of lines and patterns, trembling, overlapping, and composing a stirred music at the deepest part of the world.
Under the movent of the invisible ‘hand,’ the ‘lines’ symbolizing the mouth of the Abyss were quickly contracting.
Above the firmant, the space-ti structure that entangled together forming the Descent Point also shattered rapidly following the movent of that hand.
The power that accompanied the starlight obviously did not wish to leave and countless twisted lines were disturbed, entwining towards the invisible hand.
This ripple of struggle spread into reality, turning into a howling wind, tearing apart both space-ti and brilliance.
He Ao imdiately controlled the Velora to set off towards the distance.
Behind him, a segnt of calm space was instantly torn apart, splitting into innurable fragnts.
A stone sphere that had rolled into this area also cracked into countless pieces, yet these fragnts moved as though they were still part of a whole.
That distorted, torn space-ti spread into every corner of space, so filled with rainbow brilliance, others engulfed in darkness.
A beam of light entered a segnt of twisted space-ti, appearing simultaneously in every direction: above, below, in front, behind, to the left, and to the right.
A Polluted Monster trying to escape into the distance was enveloped by a segnt of space-ti; its flesh rapidly reford and its body quickly reverted to its pre-contamination Guard appearance.
However, before it could even react, with a resounding boom echoing in all directions, its body exploded into a mist of blood.
And in the ‘field of view’ of the Eye of Truth, this battle also reached its ‘end’.
The Mysterious Shadow had sent too little power in that instant, not even enough to form a complete projection.
The invisible hand eventually freed itself from those entwining ‘lines,’ disturbing the surrounding lines and destroying the Descent Point designed to hold more power.
But in the last mont, the power of the Mysterious Shadow concentrated and detonated the power of the Abyss.
In the restless darkness, the invisible palm forcefully closed the ‘mouth’ of the Abyss, and most of the ‘hand’ was completely swallowed by the surging Abyss.
The remaining part of the hand supporting the palm also crashed down and the radiance that filled the entire city dimd.
The starry sky in the heavens suddenly collapsed, and the light of the Blood Sun once again spread throughout the city.
The rich darkness gradually dissipated and faded, concealed in both the blood-colored light and the twisted space-ti.
All that remained of the City of Rong Guang was now just its outermost edge.
Most parts of the city were left with a huge crater.
Undispersed darkness lingered within the crater, densely interspersed with the twisted space-ti.
Of the once bright sky, only patches of muddled flesh remained.
The illusions of two giant planets that appeared in the ‘sky’ were now also gradually fading.
Only the blood-colored sun continued to hang high above the city, scattering its blood-colored light into every corner.
And in the very center of this vast crater, a figure tumbled out of the darkness.
He lifted his head, gazing confusedly at the surrounding darkness and the chaotic space-ti.
He attempted to regain control over the power of the city, but in the next instant, with the roaring whistle of a steam horn, an invisible blade rushed toward his body.
A thin grey radiance enveloped his body, trying to block the sword blade.
An eye embedded in an inverted triangle Phantom Shadow sketched out from the sky, then its gaze swept downward, glancing over the grey radiance.
The radiance disintegrated in a mont, and the invisible blade pierced through the man’s heart without any obstruction.
Clear footsteps ca from afar, a bloodied young man walked step by step along the desolate ruins.
“You, have won.”
The man gazed at the approaching figure, blood spilling from his mouth, his body toppling forward, kneeling to the ground.
He Ao watched the ‘Ruoke En’ before him who had been pierced by the Shadowless Sword, stopping in front of him.
Ruoke En should have been directly swallowed by the Abyss at the very center of its outbreak, but the Higher Being behind him indeed left sothing in him, saving his life.
However, it seed that the power of the three great Angels that had fused into him had not been preserved.
His current body only possessed barely B-class strength, and He Ao could already see through his Divine Sense the two energy centers within him.
Both located at his chest, just now having been pierced through by the Shadowless Sword.
He Ao silently walked to the front of Ruoke En, gazing at the man before him.
Ruoke En’s body still retained so residue of the Angels’ power, which kept him from dying too quickly.
But his life force was indeed gradually ceasing.
The Super mory Mark he had placed on him could now finally ‘listen in’ on his thoughts to so extent.
Yet his mind was now a blank slate.
He Ao could distinctly feel that there was sothing within Ruoke En’s Soul that was ‘attracting’ the elent of Super mory.
He tried to activate the mark he had placed on Ruoke En, gathering Soul Power, and ‘touched’ Ruoke En’s soul which had yet to disperse.
Streams of light-like scenes quickly flashed before He Ao, which seed to be ‘mories’ of Ruoke En.
These mories were incomplete, mostly fragnted scenes.
He Ao’s gaze swiftly skimd over these scenes, searching for that special ‘item’.
A phonograph.
That seed to be the source of power transmission from the Higher Being, and from the situation just now, the phonograph did not appear to be nearby.
As long as that phonograph exists, the influence of the Higher Being will continue, and he needed to know where Ruoke En last ‘placed’ the phonograph.
The scenes from Ruoke En’s mories appearing in He Ao’s mind were chaotic, with many parts tinged with madness and interspersed with so of Ruoke En’s presumably ‘fantastical’ mories from his youth in the Trok Republic.
He Ao tried to review all mories involving the phonograph.
In these mories, Ruoke En grew increasingly deranged, but it seed he only had mories of listening to the phonograph, with no mory of moving or hiding it.
Within these mories, Ruoke En changed through nurous scenes, the phonograph always by his side, but without a single image of moving or concealing the phonograph.
Erased?
He Ao’s thoughts pulsed.
He rapidly searched through the mory images transmitted by Ruoke En in his mind once more.
“What are you searching for?”
A soft whisper resounded at his ear.
Next to He Ao, the ancient phonograph placed down its needle.
Ding—
As if invisible hands were plucking piano strings, the first movent of music began.
