Chapter 396 The Death of the Undying Priest
However, what responded to her was still that dazzling yet deadly rain of energy guns, like a meteor shower!
Rumble—!!!!!!!!!
Once again, the bombing was a foregone conclusion!
Yet another meaningless rebirth!
……
once……
twice……
three times……
……
Time flies by in this monotonous and cruel cycle.
Lin Qiye had long since lost count of how many times he had blasted his opponent to pieces.
All he knew was that, with each cycle of consumption and replenishment, the spiritual energy within his body not only did not diminish in the slightest, but instead…
It's becoming increasingly refined and concentrated!
And his vast and boundless spiritual sea, nourished by repeatedly devouring the opponent's original will, was expanding and extending outward at a visible speed!
[Spiritual Consciousness Sea (8%): Blood Bone Pearl (5%), Shadow Binding Heart (3%)]
……
[Spiritual Consciousness Sea (9%): Blood Bone Treasure - Pearl (5%), Shadow Binding Heart (4%)]
……
[Spiritual Consciousness Sea (10%): Blood Bone Pearl (5%), Shadow Binding Heart (5%)]
Below the tower, the square, which had once been filled with fervent prayers, had fallen into a deathly silence.
All the surviving soldiers, like soulless puppets, stared blankly upwards at the scene atop the tower that resembled a battle of gods. Their sharp eyes had long been replaced by a deeper emotion—
numbness.
Their beliefs, their understanding, their worldview were utterly crushed, reshaped, and then... crushed again in this battle that overturned all their comprehension!
They could no longer distinguish who was the devil and who was the god.
All they knew was that their lives, like candle flames flickering in the wind, were being consumed and stripped away little by little in this battle they couldn't comprehend.
……
At the top of the tower, the high priest's figure once again coalesced from the crimson magic circle.
This time, however, her figure was more ethereal and dim than ever before.
The crimson magic circle had long lost its eerie glow, becoming dim and lifeless, as if it might go out at any moment.
Her unfathomable black eyes were fixed on the young man below, whose expression remained indifferent and whose aura was even stronger than before. For the first time, her hoarse voice trembled uncontrollably.
"You... what kind of monster are you...?"
She can't understand!
Why?!
Why does this man's psychic energy seem inexhaustible?!
Why is it that his strange martial arts will can devour my own origin?!
Why is it that my supposedly immortal body, which I'm so proud of, has become a joke in front of him?!
The Pure Sky City she had managed for hundreds of years, the believers she had painstakingly cultivated, the source of her strength for survival...
In this short period of time, she was gradually and completely consumed by this man!
"monster?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye merely glanced at her calmly, without pausing his movements in the slightest.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Another dazzling energy spear frantically condensed and took shape in front of him!
Looking at the rain of deathly bullets that could completely erase the last trace of his essence, all the resentment and unwillingness in the high priest's dark eyes faded away, leaving only the purest, deepest fear!
escape!
We must escape!
This thought, like the most primal instinct, instantly overwhelmed all her reason!
She no longer cared about dignity or faith. Her figure flashed, and she abandoned the blood sacrifice array that had long been integrated with her. She transformed into a streak of blood-red light and fled madly towards the outside of the tower!
however.
*Pfft!*
A soft sound, like the tearing of cloth, suddenly rang out behind her!
The high priestess felt a sudden chill in her back as an irresistible, terrifying force filled with destructive power instantly pierced through her body!
With great difficulty, as if she had used up all her strength, she slowly lowered her head.
A dazzling energy spear, wreathed in ice, lightning, and fire, with a chilling glint at its tip, pierced through her chest with deadly precision!
"Well……"
A series of unintelligible hoarse sounds came from her throat.
In those unfathomable black eyes, all the brilliance vanished instantly, leaving only pure, incomprehensible terror and horror.
She doesn't understand.
Why...
How could a human being do such a thing...?
She had never seen it before...
In the last moment of her vision, she only saw that god-like figure, silently floating in the distance, its eyes burning with golden flames, staring indifferently at her.
boom--!!!!!!
A muffled, loud bang erupted from her body!
Frost freezes! Lightning tears! Flames burn!
Three distinctly different destructive energies raged and eroded her body!
Purify!
Eradicated!
destroy!
Her newly formed figure couldn't even muster a decent resistance before it was blasted into pieces by the violent energy explosion, turning into a sky full of blood mist and black gas!
This time, however, there was no energy replenishment from the blood sacrifice array.
She can never be reborn!
As the last wisp of the abyss's will was completely devoured and refined by Lin Qiye, the entire Jingkong City fell into a deathly silence.
Lin Qiye calmly withdrew his hand, and his eyes, which had been burning with golden flames, slowly returned to their original depth and calm.
On a whim, he brought up his system panel.
[Spiritual Consciousness Sea (12%): Blood Bone Pearl (6%), Shadow Binding Heart (6%)]
Looking at the steadily increasing numbers, Lin Qiye's face revealed a satisfied smile.
This battle was very fruitful.
This "immortal" high priest has once again greatly enhanced his power.
He slowly turned around, his gaze calmly sweeping over the city below, which had long since fallen into deathly silence.
On the square, the surviving soldiers were completely stunned by the scene before them that overturned all their understanding.
They simply stared blankly up at the godlike figure in mid-air, their sharp eyes already filled with a complex mix of awe, fear, and even... worship.
In their hearts, there was an omnipotent, godlike high priest...
He just...died like that?
They were utterly annihilated by this mysterious intruder in an almost overwhelming manner?!
Lin Qiye ignored the soldiers below who had long lost their will to fight.
His figure flashed and he landed silently on the top of the tower, which was already in ruins.
He walked up to the blood sacrifice array that was still flickering with a faint red light and examined it carefully.
This magic circle can gather the life force of the entire city into one, providing the high priest with a continuous source of power.
This thing... is actually quite a treasure.
Lin Qiye stretched out his hand, a faint wisp of spiritual energy gathering at his fingertips, and carefully probed into the magic array.
However, just as his psionic energy touched the core of the magic circle—
Om-! ! !
A cold, evil, and resistant force suddenly erupted from the magic circle, attempting to completely devour and assimilate his spiritual energy!
Lin Qiye's eyes suddenly narrowed!
really……
Does this magic circle still retain the imprint of that high priest's will?!
"snort!"
Lin Qiye snorted coldly and, without the slightest hesitation, instantly activated his sixth-level extreme martial intent!
That newly emerging evil force was as fragile as ice and snow encountering the blazing sun before that golden will, which was as bright as the sun itself, and was instantly purified and obliterated!
As that evil will dissipated, the entire magic circle trembled violently, and the faint red light that had been flickering was completely extinguished.
Immediately afterward, to Lin Qiye's astonishment, the enormous magic array covering the entire top of the tower began to writhe and contract violently, as if it had a life of its own!
Countless intricate crimson patterns, like receding tides, rapidly converged towards the center of the magic array!
Finally, it coalesced into a crystal that was entirely blood red, covered with twisted runes, and pulsating slightly like a heart.
Mysterious Relic!
Another mysterious relic!
