Chapter 502: The Great Battle

May I borrow you for a moment?

Shi Nianyu’s face turned ice-cold as she said, "Profligate, what exactly do you want? Tell me, what is Babel Tower up to? Why did Xia insist on having us here?"

"The literal meaning is that he only wanted to use you for a little while, nothing more."

The one speaking was none other than the Hound of Babel Tower, Mu Ling.

Just now, in the dimension of black and white, Mu Ling and Alan, along with Profligate, successfully reunited. At this moment, she stood by Bai Yan’s side.

Bai Yan touched his nose and couldn’t help but feel that Mu Ling’s words were a bit strange.

Sure enough, Shi Nianyu’s face became even paler.

In this world, there were many exceptionally powerful individuals, but also many ludicrous ones. Countless extraordinary beings with strong desires indulged themselves without restraint in their little hobbies.

As it turned out, this "Profligate" was also that kind of person. It seemed that his nickname suited him well.

Bai Yan felt the urge to explain, but suddenly he realized that such behavior didn’t quite fit his "Profligate" character, so he could only put on a smile and face the situation.

Okay, let’s just pretend that I was teasing you.

Alan was currently hiding nearby, not revealing his true form, preparing for an unknown danger.

At the same time, he pondered repeatedly about the matter concerning Bai Yan in his mind.

Alan forced himself to hold back and didn’t reveal his true identity as the "Profligate" in front of Mu Ling.

Ah, it’s so unbearable!

Alan suddenly remembered Maryse, the half-elf girl, and wondered if the current members of the Babel Tower were aware of her feelings.

Oh my, what would she think if she knew that the true identity of the ‘Profligate’ is Bai Yan?

He pondered a question – was it the character or the real Bai Yan that the half-elf girl truly liked?

Ah, I really want to share this secret.

Without waiting any longer, she decided to simply threaten Bai Yan, making him beg for mercy on his knees. Otherwise, she would unveil the truth to everyone!

Even though Alan had lost his sight, he still managed to show a smile.

Bai Yan, oh Bai Yan, you wouldn’t want everyone at the Babel Tower to know that you are a Profligate, would you?

Alan was lost in his thoughts, pondering about how to deal with Bai Yan, unaware that his every little scheme was being heard loud and clear by Bai Yan, who had unlocked the power of his awakened inner strength.

Bai Yan was also lost in thought.

Let’s use the power of mind to make this guy lose his memory.

Or use physical force to make him lose his memory.

Of course, Bai Yan was just joking. He knew that Alan had promised him not to tell anyone, so he definitely wouldn’t reveal the truth.

Shi Nianyu gently shook her head:

"Are you trying to capture me and embarrass Xia using me? If that’s really the case, then you people from the Babel Tower are truly mean and boring."

Objectively speaking, in terms of appearance, she is no less inferior than Mu Ling, the Witch, and the Scarlet Moon. Without a doubt, her looks and figure are top-notch among the top-tier.

So far, there have indeed been quite a few people coveting her.

"You’re still thinking too much. My last name is not Cao, but in short, it would be better for Ms. Shi to surrender."

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he launched an attack on Shi Nianyu without hesitation.

Deep Blue World.

World fell into a standstill.

The very first second.

In that instant, Bai Yan suddenly felt the threat from the Head of Dark Night. The old man was silently directing the power of Dark Light, which surged towards him and Mu Ling beside him.

"Has he decided to betray us?"

Bai Yan, however, was not surprised at all. After all, this guy’s owner had an unpredictable stance, so a sudden betrayal was nothing out of the ordinary.

Second later.

Bai Yan had already moved Mu Ling’s body, and the Head of Dark Night seemed to possess excellent hiding skills. None of the people present sensed his sudden attack.

Three seconds later.

He first launched an attack on Shi Nianyu, but soon realized that she was enveloped by an invisible tower.

It was not impossible to try and destroy it from the outside, but it was indeed very challenging.

Especially when Bai Yan didn’t want to kill her directly but intended to capture her alive, this invisible tower became an even more challenging obstacle.

So, he chose a gentler way of fighting.

When time returned to normal, the soaring Dark Light missed its target, but it directly tore the earth apart.

"Boom!"

Shi Nianyu was taken aback when she noticed cracks appearing on her tall tower. And not far away, Profligate was smiling at her.

The detestable and frightening fellow, fortunately, had already prepared for defense in advance.

Without any hesitation, Shi Nianyu decisively decided to bring Profligate into her tower.

Inside the tower, she was invincible.

"The Book of Dark Light, immediately got rid of all the Imperial Guards and everyone in the Babel Tower."

In the sky, the Head of Dark Night issued a command, but the Book of Dark Light fell into contemplation, shaking its head, and didn’t carry it out.

She argued back, "The Divine Executor made it clear when we arrived, hoping that we could help the Babel Tower."

The old man had a calm expression and said, "Is that so? Therefore, instead of the Savior, you chose to follow that so-called ‘Divine Executor’… Well, if you insist on being stubborn, I will deal with you together."

The Book of Dark Light shook its head and said, "No, that’s not what I meant. Wait, why do you think the will of the Divine Executor and the Savior are contradictory?"

The old man didn’t explain; a hint of madness flickered in his calm eyes.

Meanwhile, Mu Ling unfolded the Deep Blue World, swiftly slashing at the Head of Dark Night hundreds and thousands of times.

But Dark Light effortlessly blocked her strike.

Mu Ling once again felt powerless.

Time returned to normal.

"Boom!"

The powerful "Power" rushed forward with all his might and fell to one knee on the ground. His strong hands kept shaking, while his lion-like face was filled with astonishment and disbelief.

The power of this man was actually beyond his own!

Alan smiled and clasped the hands of the White Lion, effortlessly suppressing the much larger creature.

"My eyes were the nemesis of magic. I haven’t used this close combat fighting style that I’m not very good at when dealing with another guy just now."

He had just bestowed upon himself the "mighty" and "enduring" knightly magic.

The former simply increased his strength, while the latter allowed him to continuously enhance his overall physical abilities without moving from his spot.

In terms of pure strength, Aaron had even surpassed the strength-specialized White Lion.

Unfortunately, when it comes to dealing with top-tier spellcasters like "the Son of God" Amicio, the Sanction Knight is not as compatible as the Pupil of Mystery and the Fire that Burns Everything in terms of affinity.

"Roar, roar, roar! Magician, don’t be arrogant, you are merely a blind person now!"

The White Lion suddenly went berserk, roaring loudly. He never imagined that he would be inferior to the Magician in terms of power.

He opened his huge bloodstained mouth, lunging with the intent to brutally bite and kill Alan. However, he suddenly noticed the terrifying black flames rising around him.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!"

Engulfed in flames, the hair all over the White Lion’s body ignited as he fell to the ground, writhing in excruciating pain. Yet, his mighty resilience ensured that he wouldn’t be burned to death instantly.

On the other side, Dark Light brushed past Mu Ling, once again dividing the bloodstained land horizontally.

"Uh-oh!"

The difference between Mu Ling and the Head of Dark Night was too great. They barely managed to evade an attack by slipping into the dimension of darkness, but in the next moment, they found themselves completely surrounded by an overwhelming force of Dark Light.

Just then, a page from a book appeared at her feet and whisked her away, transporting her several hundred meters away.

The Book of Dark Light stood in its place, its expression solemn, as it aided Mu Ling.

The refined literary lady took a deep breath and held the black leather book, saying, "Please, Mr. Head of Dark Night, let us refrain from harming the people of Babel Tower… my teacher."

"Hahahaha!"

In the sky, the old man furiously laughed, waving his finger. The blood-red sky dimmed by half, as he nodded and said, "Very well, Vivian. Then I shall first slay you!"

Vivian, naturally, is the true name used in the mundane world for the Book of Dark Light, which has long been discarded.

Suddenly, the old man felt an unimaginable sense of horror!

A crimson flame transformed into a shooting star, resembling a calamity of the doomsday, a catastrophe of the heavens and earth, swiftly rushing towards him!

"Dark Light, protect me!"

The old man roared, and Dark Light rose up like a towering mountain, casting a shadow over the land.

Bai Yan’s Scarlet Strike dealt a heavy blow upon the darkness.

A tremendous explosion caused a deafening roar, and the crimson earth shattered completely, with countless streams of blood splashing into the sky!

In the midst of a torrential downpour of blood, Mu Ling felt a sudden surge of inspiration and realized that Shi Nianyu had quietly appeared behind her.

The next moment, she found herself enveloped in a tall tower.

Shi Nianyu immediately shouted at Alan, "Release the ‘Power’ quickly, or I will execute her immediately."

Inside the towering fortress, another version of her was incredibly powerful. Crushing a Crown level transcendent being would not be considered a difficult task.

Even at this moment, Mu Ling had already been severely wounded within the tall tower.

A strong sense of killing intent surged through his heart.

Shi Nianyu couldn’t help but shudder, fully sensing that she had been targeted by some terrifying presence.

Just at that moment, a dreadful Dark Light emerged from the ground, instantly engulfing Shi Nianyu.

She never expected to be ambushed by the Head of Dark Night. Suddenly, countless invisible cracks appeared on the towering invisible tower, as if on the verge of collapsing.

And then, a surge of killing intent came forth, shattering the towering tower.

Shi Nianyu caught sight of Profligate.

At the moment when the tower shattered, this man appeared not far from himself.

She realized that it was Profligate who had shattered the tower.

Shi Nianyu couldn’t understand how Profligate had shattered the tower because, just moments ago, he seemed to have skipped through time and suddenly delivered a horrifying blow.

The shattering of the tower left Shi Nianyu deeply wounded, and she coughed up blood.

"Whew."

After the cage called the "Crown level" was shattered, countless extraordinary beings of the same level suddenly appeared in the sky. All of them were notorious criminals or cultists who had been well-known members of the Air Alliance for decades.

The "Emperor" Kessel and the "Casket" Peggie were both present within.

Mu Ling appeared in the sky, almost devoid of fighting abilities. In just a few seconds, she had been severely injured inside the tall tower.

Despite hesitating, Bai Yan ultimately embraced Mu Ling with one arm.

He extended his other hand and grabbed Shi Nianyu, as if catching a helpless little chick.

Shi Nianyu wanted to struggle and resist, but Bai Yan didn’t want any more complications. He silently unleashed a spell specifically designed to torment humans.

"Ah!"

The intense pain that penetrated her soul immediately caused Shi Nianyu to fall into a deep unconsciousness.

"What’s going on?"

"What place is this?"

"We are free!"

"Hahaha, okay, I will definitely defeat that mean lady!"

"It seems like this place is not the dimension of material things, hmm…"

Above the sky, the Head of Dark Night said calmly:

"Don’t make noise."

Hundreds of extraordinary beings at the Crown level didn’t understand the situation. Suddenly, a tsunami-like Dark Light swept over, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.

This power was tremendous, yet completely silent, and people’s INT had no response at all!

In the eyes of everyone, only darkness remained.

Over half of the Crown-level extraordinary beings vanished in an instant.

However, there were still numerous Crown-level extraordinaries who showcased their exceptional abilities and managed to escape by a stroke of luck, but they were all filled with great fear. Both "Emperor" Kessel and "Casket" Peggie were among those who survived.

While begrudgingly tossing Shi Nianyu into the Babel Tower, Bai Yan said to Mu Ling, "That old fellow has completely gone mad. From now on, we must be extremely careful."

Mu Ling freed herself from his grasp, her body continuously healing. She nodded earnestly and said, "Thank you for your assistance, senior."

Bai Yan hesitated, his words on the tip of his tongue, a silent struggle within. Finally, he simply nodded gently.

"Whether it’s the Imperial Guards or the Babel Tower, or even you, Vivian… all of you have an unforgivable sin, which is to be against the great Savior."

On the incredibly aged face of the Head of Dark Night, there was neither sadness nor joy, only weariness filled his expression. His eyes were exhausted, as if he could pass away at any moment.

However, every move he made had a peculiar feeling that filled people’s hearts with fear.

Everyone present understood very well that the old man hanging high in the sky was filled with madness and murderous intent in his heart.

"I will obey the will of the great Savior and cleanse each of your souls here."

"Become a skeleton in the dark light."
