Chapter 642: Divine Soul Descent (III)
Bang, bang, bang. The instant the spatial crystal made it into the last cavity, three successive loud sounds reverberated.
In the midst of those violent rumbles, the spatial spiritual energy dispersed by Wang Yuanyuan grew threefold, or rather, blasted three times at once.
To the audience’s shock, all they could see during the process of these three blasts was an expanse of silver, but at the end of the blasts, in a stupor, they witnessedthe sight of the originally incomparably domineering wind elemental domain crumbling at once.
What level of strength could do that Never had they expected Wang Yuanyuan to actually have such a power.
At some unknown point, a gigantic figure had appeared in front of Wang Yuanyuan, over ten meters tall and fully equipped in silver armor. But from the outside, that armor was not shining in silver, but in reeking blood red.
This ten meters tall gigantic warrior held in its left hand a shield, an enlarged version of the Divine Soul Shield, just as tall as that giant.
With a large bang, the warrior abruptly strode forward. The whole Tower of Eternity shook violently at each step he took.
Right now, Wang Yuanyuan’s eyes were colored silver, and the Divine Soul Shield previously in her hand wasn’t there anymore. One could distinctly see thin bloody beads flow outside her skin, as her whole body trembled severely.
God’s Descent! This was clearly a God’s Descent. But unlike Cai’er and Long Haochen who had previously made displays of God’s Descent, Wang Yuanyuan was not a god’s chosen one. She was borrowing the power of her weapon to activate God’s Descent.
With her Gigantic Soul God blood vessels[a][b][c] as a catalyst and the Divine Soul Shield as an intermediary, she unexpectedly managed this inconceivable summon.
The instant that terrible Gigantic Soul God strode forward, the ten meters long shield in his hand already splashed across. The next instant, the whole space became filled only with silver color. A strident lacerating sound could be heard everywhere that shield passed.
A god’s power! That was the power of a true god. Cai’er even concluded that at least none of her previous displays of God’s Descent could compare with this Gigantic Soul God, and the same went even for Long Haochen.
But what could be the cost to pay for such a terrible attack?
Cai’er, Lin Xin, Han Yu, Zhang Fangfang felt extremely tense right this instant.
The wind mage was also full of shock due to this so sudden shocking scene. His hand moved rhythmically, and complex symbols appeared in front of him, as the shattered domain reconstituted anew. In a flash, nine whirlpools had gathered in front of him.
These nine whirlpools were completely different from the previous display of the domain. Although they were much smaller in volume, they gave off far greater feelings of threat.
Each little whirlpool dispersed a greenish-gold glow, flying at very slow speed, but heading towards the certain path of the Divine Soul Shield. After releasing those nine little whirlpools, the soulfire pulsing in the eyes of that green skeleton weakened greatly. It was clearly not a magic to take lightly.
Bzz. The first whirlpool shattered the instant of contact, spattering green light to all directions. Immediately, the second, third, fourth, and fifth followed, none of which missed, to block the Divine Soul Shield’s path.
But at the time of the sixth little whirlpool collision, the Divine Soul Shield made a short pause, as if signalling that its power was starting to get exhausted.
“Kill...” Wang Yuanyuan roared to the sky, once again spraying out blood in her enraged shout. Immediately, a large bloody shadow rushed out from her body, dissolving into the Gigantic Soul God ahead, and the splattered Gigantic Soul God immediately regained its vigor.
The seventh spatial crystal on Divine Soul Shield lit up resplendently, and immediately, a massive silver pillar shot up loudly.
This was a silver pillar of light extending over ten meters.
The remaining three green whirlpool were instantly swallowed inside alongside that green skeleton.
A loud explosion shook the whole Tower of Eternity, causing light undulations of breath of death to faintly disperse at each shaking.
After this blow terminated, the whole spiritual energy sharing effects produced by the Cojoined Spiritual Pills came to a stop. Wang Yuanyuan remained kneeled on the ground, entirely covered in blood, just like Sima Xian was just before. But unlike him, though the blood on her was leaking outside her body, there was no scar left on her.
The ten meters tall Gigantic Soul God crumbled, and after the shield spiraled several continuous times, it pierced the ground in front of her.
Dang... In ear-piercing shatters, the seven spatial crystals on the Divine Soul Shield shattered at the same time, and the shield lost all its color, turning a pitch black.
Wang Yuanyuan still had a knee on the ground, motionless, as the silver light in her eyes gradually dissipated. Still, her look was directed ahead of her from beginning to end, gazing at where that immense silver pillar of light gradually disappeared.
Finally, all the silver light had vanished, and that green skelton was still standing there, shrouded all around by a solid looking green barrier, and in a standstill.
It did not kill him? Cai’er’s group of four looked at that green skeleton in disbelief.
But the next instant, clang sounds reverberated, as the green light surrounding that green skeleton splattered like a falling egg, splitting open from head to toes.
“Third Holy Guard acknowledges allegiance to you.” In a flash of green light, a sort of green arrow shot toward Cai’er, making way inside the Eternal Melody.
Cai’er couldn’t attend to feeling the heat from the Eternal Melody submerging her, and strode forward toward Wang Yuanyuan at once.
What she saw was a deep murderous spirit and conviction gradually watering down. A look of relief and gratification gradually appeared, but her eyes had cleared, then become ashen white.
This instant, a blood colored radiance shot to her side, containing a fist sized rune flashing out from beside Cai’er to make its way inside Wang Yuanyuan’s forehead.
Wang Yuanyuan’s body shook violently, and her originally ashen white pupils regained some color. Letting out a stuffy groan, she fell to the ground.
Cai’er hastily caught her body, while on the other side Zhang Fangfang also collapsed.
Wang Yuanyuan was already unconscious, but Zhang Fangfang, still conscious, displayed a smile of satisfaction, “This time, Yuanyuan is to be left to me without any possible other option. Now I can be satisfied. You all have to succeed!”
After saying this, Zhang Fangfang’s eyes shut, going unconscious.
After he went unconscious too, a strange scene took place. From Wang Yuanyuan and Zhang Fangfang dispersed faint blood-colored rays, and on their foreheads started to glint similar blood-colored runes.
These two runes were completely different, but on their edge one could see that if they were joined, it would make a single complete rune. But just what could they stand for?
Han Yu supported Zhang Fangfang’s body with his hand, slowly placing it beside Wang Yuanyuan. Kneeling on one knee, his fist on the chest, he resonantly performed a knight salute of the most solemn kind.
This was an etiquette of great homage.
“Han Yu, hurry up and get on with healing magic! Why aren’t you treating them?” Beside them, Lin Xin already couldn’t hold his thoughts.
Han Yu shook his head calmly, “There’s no use, healing magic won’t have any effect on them. Brother Zhang is the most respect-worthy young knight I have ever encountered outside Boss.”
Cai’er asked in a rush, “Will there be anything happening to them?”
“……”
Han Yu shook his head, and replied, “Their lives are not endangered, it’s just that...”
Lin Xin was hasty, “Don’t cut off what you're saying in the middle, can you? Just what is going on with them?”
Han Yu took a deep breath, also feeling emotional, “If I am not mistaken, the power Yuanyuan just utilized was totally past her limits. Using her own blood vessels to call a God’s Descent through the Divine Soul Shield and launching two attacks depleted nearly all her vital forces. She had to ignite her own life, to raise her blood vessels to their limit of tolerance. Only like that could she achieve that summon. But as a result, Yuanyuan’s life is coming to its limit after the battle’s termination.”
“Didn’t you say their lives were not endangered?” Cai’er questioned hastily.
“This is where Brother Zhang really is worthy of respect. Although this is not a magic spell I am capable of using, it can be seen from the symbols that what he used should be a secret life-saving technique passed from old times, to transmit one’s life to another, passing the caster’s vital force to a target on the verge of death to extend the target’s life. From Brother Zhang’s look and the gloss on this rune, he should have passed half his life straight to Yuanyuan, which is to say that if he originally should have had a hundred years left to live, now Yuanyuan and him will only be able to share fifty for each of them.”
Hearing Han Yu so far, Cai’er and Lin Xin both couldn’t help but gasp. No matter how ice-cold Cai’er’s dispositions were, she couldn’t help but involuntarily cry out bitterly at this instant.
“Yuanyuan, why did you do that? If Haochen was let known that you guys had to pay such a cost for his sake, I’m afraid he would not even be willing to let himself be resurrected.” Shaking greatly, Cai’er understood that, to come so far, there had already been three of her comrades that had to go to the brink of death, while Zhang Fangfang had to give half his life expectancy away. For the sake of resurrecting Long Haochen, they had paid far too much.
[a]*TC* Not sure which chapter this was introduced, but you might want to check it
[b]never I think
[c]ok, I thought there was something about her revealing her special body characteristic to the group, but maybe not...
161 has "her Gigantic Divine Soul Shield, ... the might of this blood-bound equipment that is already close to the legendary tier "
That and her constant abnormal bloodlust must have gotten me confused with something else
