Chapter 1385 Staff
Mountain Valley.
As Lin Qiye’s chanting voice rose, strands of deep red magical light floated up from the patterns on the ground, converging toward the sky, gradually evolving into a black sun hundreds of meters high, suspended beneath the firmament.
A world-destroying magical aura emanated from this black sun, and the previously bright sky visibly dimmed.
Hot breezes swept across the island, large flocks of birds flapped their wings and flew into the sky, as if fearing something.
The commanders observing near the valley twitched their lips slightly at this sight.
“Summoning magic, the essence of night, the Kusanagi sword, a divine artifact that can counter forbidden relics, a long blade that ignores distance, and now a black sun… how many trump cards does this kid have?”
Wang Qing couldn’t help but speak as she gazed at Lin Qiye with his clothes fluttering beneath the black sun.
“His existence is entangled with great karma, so naturally he wouldn’t lack opportunities,” said Gongyang Wan, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Qiye, speaking casually. “However, no matter how much he relies on external objects, they only add icing on the cake. He will eventually have to walk that path…”
“So, should we stop him?” Wang Qing pointed at the ground beneath them. “If we really let him fight all out, I’m afraid this entire island will suffer. It’s just a preliminary assessment training, it shouldn’t go this far, right?”
“No need.”
Nie Jinshan slowly stood up, his tall figure like a pine tree standing firm in the wind, and said calmly, “Let him continue. With me here, this island won’t be destroyed.”
Nie Jinshan took a step forward and appeared in the center of the valley in the next moment. He reached out and grasped at the void, and the top of a distant mountain peak suddenly exploded. A black shadow howled across the sky and landed precisely in front of him!
Boom—!!
The ground of the valley cracked inch by inch. A black staff, like the upright figure wearing a Zhongshan suit, stood firmly in the billowing dust.
Nie Jinshan gripped the black staff with one hand, keeping his other hand behind his waist, and looked up at the fiercely burning black sun in the sky, his eyes as calm as still water.
Inside the virtual reconstruction world, Lin Qiye’s chanting became increasingly urgent, and the array’s light in the valley shone brilliantly, reaching its peak intensity!
As the last syllable fell, the surface of the black sun hanging high in the sky suddenly contracted, and a ferocious deep red vertical eye opened, emitting an eerie red light!
He raised his arm and pointed toward the distant void.
Boom—!!
A deep red beam burst forth from the vertical eye, instantly tearing through the void and shooting toward the ground of the valley!
Nie Jinshan’s eyes focused, his figure instantly leaving afterimages on the ground, moving at a speed close to teleportation to the front of the deep red beam. The muscles of his right arm bulged, and the black staff broke through the air, colliding with the beam without any flourish!
A muffled explosion echoed through the valley, and visible deep red ripples spread out. The ground beneath Nie Jinshan’s feet shattered, and he sank half a meter. The terrifying energy extended from the staff to Nie Jinshan’s entire body, but his figure remained standing firm with his hand behind his back, only his expression becoming slightly more solemn.
He grunted, and with a steady flick of the black staff, the beam was forcibly deflected at a sharp angle from the ground, howling as it shot toward the sky!
The world-destroying black sun beam, erupting from the island over the sea, shot straight into the clouds!
This wasn’t over yet. Beneath the black sun, Lin Qiye frowned slightly, and as his eyes swept across what was before him, one deep red beam after another burst forth.
Nie Jinshan stomped the ground fiercely, precisely flicking each deep red beam into the sky with his staff before it could hit the ground, his afterimages almost covering every corner of the valley!
The succession of deep red beams shooting into the clouds cast a faint red glow on the faces of Wang Qing and the others. Looking at the figure wielding the staff with one hand, she sighed deeply:
“Already a heroic spirit, yet still competing with young people… what’s the point?”
…
Huaihai City.
Several deep red beams shot out from the black sun, continuously locking onto Baize’s position. A grinning black shadow darted out from the river, and the blade aura of killing intent surged again!
The berserk Cao Yuan’s figure moved freely through the dense deep red beams, catching up to Baize who was within reach. The blade aura cut through the rain curtain, slashing across the pure white skin, leaving a bloody mark on Baize’s back!
Baize roared in anger and was about to turn around when countless frost-carrying threads entangled its limbs and horns. An Qingyu stood in mid-air carrying a black coffin, his hands tightly gripping the threads, a pair of earth dragon wings breaking through his back, howling as they flapped, barely restraining Baize’s form.
Extreme cold frost spread over Baize’s body through the threads, gradually slowing its movements. The berserk Cao Yuan, holding his straight blade, nimbly avoided several attacks and slashed out again with a backhand!
“Its condition is deteriorating. Don’t deliver fatal blows, just try to restrain it… perhaps it still has a chance to recover.”
Lin Qiye spoke solemnly as he saw the bloody marks increasing on Baize’s body.
The berserk Cao Yuan seemed to understand Lin Qiye’s words and flipped his blade, starting to fight and maneuver with the back of the blade against Baize.
Frost rapidly accumulated in An Qingyu’s hands, flowing into Baize’s body through the threads like a persistent parasite, freezing its body bit by bit. Even though Baize constantly cut the threads with its horns, endless threads continued to entangle it, making it impossible to completely break free.
With the addition of Bai Li Pangpang’s restraint from the sky, and Lin Qiye’s [Black Sun Ritual] as the main damage output locking down movement, Baize was like stepping into a quagmire, sinking deeper and deeper.
On the ground, Tang Mingxuan, holding the young beast, was sprinting on the water-filled streets.
With Baize being restrained by Lin Qiye and the others, the surging river water had weakened somewhat, but even so, the water on both sides of the street had already risen above knee level. If Tang Mingxuan couldn’t walk on water, he would likely be unable to move at all.
Just then, the young beast sleeping in Tang Mingxuan’s arms slowly opened its eyes, blinking in confusion, and a clear infant’s cry cut through the rain curtain!
Jie—!
As this penetrating sound rang out, the heavy rain falling from the sky suddenly paused. Baize, surrounded by Lin Qiye and the others, abruptly raised its head, and a struggle appeared in its blood-red eyes.
It roared with all its might, brilliant divine light erupted, instantly cutting off the frost threads entangled by An Qingyu. With a flick of its horns, it knocked the berserk Cao Yuan into mid-air and frantically charged toward the direction from which the sound came by the river!
The river water instantly churned, and water spouts that curled into the clouds followed behind it, like a vast tsunami, sweeping toward Huaihai City.
“Its chaotic consciousness is loosening!” An Qingyu exclaimed upon seeing this.
Lin Qiye looked at the overwhelming river water, a flash of determination in his eyes. His figure darted out from the magic array, flickering and disappearing in the air, instantly appearing above the rampaging Baize!
He firmly grasped Baize’s horns with his hands, landing on Baize’s back in the fierce wind, and suddenly exerted force with both hands, trying to change Baize’s direction of advance.
