Chapter 3079: Promotion to the Ninth Ring
Chapter 3078: Promotion to the Ninth Ring
The dark golden sunlight spear was fired, and the almost frozen time surged again with the golden light marks drawn by this spear, as if the thunderbolt had awakened the sleeping time at this moment. The materialized spear collided head-on with the crystal barrier in front of the Ancient One with a thud~ sound. As fine cracks appeared, the spear pierced through the barrier with a roar, but the Ancient One dodged it again by tilting his head.
It continued to shoot back, brushing the Ancient One's face. The golden lightning in the process of rapid shooting even made the white hair on the side of the Ancient One's face turn black.
"Come!"
Iluna jumped up with her feet on the ground, and the dark golden spear that missed the first shot returned to her hand, and then she threw it for the second time. The people who were surprised by her performance reacted and continued to besiege the Ancient One sitting on the chair with her.
"Ah~"
The little elf who had just turned into a mosquito with the power of the crown to avoid the palm of the Ancient One fell from the sky and was caught by the big elf below. Emilia had never tried to turn herself into such a small creature. She felt confused at the moment and almost thought she was a mosquito.
The big elf looked at Iluna's back and complained:
"Since I'm here, she must be fine. Why are you in a hurry? I'm obviously the protagonist this time, Iluna...:::. What did you see in my eyes just now? Aren't you the chosen one of balance? I know that uncontrolled power is not easy to use."
The green leaf pattern on the back of the big elf's hand seemed to flash in response to her "not easy to use", and after saying that, the big elf looked at himself who was being held by him with some disgust. When this happened, she was in a daze now, so she didn't remember what happened even though she had experienced it once:
"I should be the protagonist before Shade's return, I am the protagonist! Little Lianna, come here!"
It was indeed quite unexpected that Iluna's life ring suddenly turned into a sunlight spear, but even if the sunlight spear was enough to cut through the solidified time and space and completely ignore any defense of the ancients, it was far from enough for Iluna, the chosen one, to fight when Sister Develyn was seriously injured and temporarily unable to participate in the battle.
That strange dark golden spear was enough to tear apart most of the time power used by the ancients, but as the battle continued, it was obvious that Iluna, who was just forcibly using this extraordinary power, gradually became less brave and swift.
Thirteen rings of sorcerers and witches who had withdrawn from the battlefield with Thomas Bennett and the "Watchers" assisted her, but the ancients who could easily suppress them without even standing up still gradually pressed the balance of victory again.
During this period, the big elf and the little elf cooperated with each other to weaken and shield the abnormal time flow around the ancients. The two were untrained but familiar with each other, just like the same person. The little elf seemed to have little combat experience, but she gradually showed some fighting style belonging to Adele Isabella, which surprised the witches.
And the big elf was the main force that stabilized the time flow and allowed the thirteen rings and witches with insufficient resistance to continue fighting. She did not have the help of the little unicorn in armor, nor did she have the [Ocarina of Time] and [Elf Kingship] in her hands, but she relied on the [Star Mark] given by Shade and the [Night Watcher] he left on the ship, which Miss Elaiser agreed to lend, and she became the key person who really influenced the battle situation besides Iluna.
Sister Defulin, who seemed to be on fire just now, returned to the battlefield quickly, but she looked seriously injured; the Red Butterfly Twins still maintained their peak combat state, but Dorothy and Leicia did not appear, which meant that the chosen one of that space had really left.
Although the Dragon of Light has disappeared, all the dragons and dragonborn present can still feel the blessing from the "Eternal Light", which means that the Chosen One of Light is still helping people even though he has withdrawn from the front battlefield.
Finally, with another huge buzzing sound detonating above the clearing, the glittering elf and the little unicorn were blown away together, turning into a white meteor and falling into the forest farther away.
Someone in the air wanted to reach out to ask her to stop, but the spell power was completely ineffective against them who were being entangled by the chaotic power of time at this moment.
Fortunately, at the edge of the clearing, the little unicorn in golden armor finally waved its wings to stop itself. Emilia passed by it, and then was hugged from behind.
The crown was a little crooked on the top of her head, and the long sword in her hand was almost unable to be held. The pointed-eared girl who spit out a mouthful of blood looked back and saw that it was indeed Shade.
The young man smiled and nodded to her, as if praising all her efforts and courage tonight.
Behind him, the yellow-haired demigod witch who had achieved her wish smiled like a flower, the black-haired sorceress who faced the battlefield seriously had a look as powerful as a sword, and the red-haired girl who seemed a little embarrassed because of the teacher beside her was unusually shy.
They finally arrived.
At this moment, the three-color moonlight shining on Shade and the sorceresses had merged into one, and they were all in an abnormal state at the moment as they flew along the moon mark. Although the moonlight of the full yellow moon could not directly pass through the treetops and sprinkle on them, they seemed to be the moon in the forest.
The yellow moonlight covering the demigod witch was as gentle as water. Even though she had not yet shown any power, she just appeared in the air as if the yellow moon appeared in front of her:
As the black-haired "Moon Spellcaster" breathed, the silver moonlight on her skin flashed with the frequency of her breathing, and the [Transformation Ring] on her finger was almost dyed bright silver. Coming from the past, desire cast flesh and blood, and moonlight brewed spirituality. At this moment, she was far more powerful than she was in 1821, and the thirteenth ring had almost reached the limit;
The red-haired girl's red moonlight was the strongest among the four. The power that had been suppressed for a long time was liberated again. Her body absorbed the blood moon essence of the "Moon of Madness". At this moment, she, with the thirteenth ring, had also exceeded the peak state before her power was cursed and sealed;
The little unicorn passed by Shade and took away Emilia who was held by him. Compared with the moonlight of the three people behind him, the moonlight on him was ancient and cold, as holy as before. The three witches/sorceresses who were in tune with each other looked at Shade's back, and they were all willing to give him all their power.
So even if the four of them hadn't done anything yet, the power of the librarians of the ancient Saint Byrons Comprehensive College, past, present, and future, was already fighting against the power of the ancient tree god.
It was like a world belonging to the moon was opened up in the realm of time and trees, the moonlight was gentle and cold, and the moonlight was holy and long.
Shade stared at the ancient on the throne from high in the sky, and the ancient also looked at him at this moment:
"So, have you guessed what secret is hidden here?"
The old man waved his hand to pat away the crystal dragon, and with a flick of his left hand, the ripples of time and space spread to Shade's side. But when the ripples came to Shade, they disappeared in the golden light that suddenly overflowed around him.
The three ladies behind him were closest to him, and they were the first to notice that the silver moonlight, which symbolized one of his essences, turned into golden light. Only the demigod witch vaguely understood what it was because she had heard her teacher's guess. The black-haired lady and the red-haired girl just held their breath when the great power that seemed to be the world itself was displayed.
They all heard Shade sigh softly:
"Prepare for promotion."
[Understood. 】
"She" chuckled in Shade's ear, and even the ladies behind Shade vaguely caught this gentle laughter in the wind.
The bells rang, and the shrill whistles sounded like thousands of people cheering. The life ring rotated, and the four-color spirit runes resonated.
Time and space, giant trees, everything in the closed Vesta Forest was affected.
Above the city in the distance, all the clones of the Guardian of the Earth cast their gazes in the direction of the golden light. Xiwei, Megan and Audrey sisters who fought against the insect swarm together knew that the battle was about to end.
"It started again, it's like this every time."
Iluna, who was holding the life ring transformed into a sunlight gun, stopped her attack. She looked up at Shade who was surrounded by golden light, and her voice could only be heard by Emilia and Emilia beside her:
"Who is the chosen one? It's so noisy every time."
The great elf agreed with her because she thought the same when Iluna stole the limelight just now.
The witches and sorceresses behind Shade helped cover up the huge eight-ring life ring, but they didn't have to do so. The divinity would protect Shade's fate and all the secrets.
The insect-man-shaped watcher, who was flying at low altitude and fighting with the ring sorcerers, suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Shade in the light.
Miracle-Night-
The golden spirit runes separated from the ring and appeared on Shade's left. The figure of Ivan Darkness, who vaguely resembled the chosen one of darkness, walked towards him from the phantom of the water and merged into his body. The water directly swallowed the "watcher" who wanted to attack him, causing him to fall into real death.
[The moon and darkness constitute the ancient night. ]
Profanation-Crystal Light The silver spirit runes separated from the ring and appeared on Shade's right. The old god "Black Robe Guardian" walked towards Shade with a smile in the form of a forest merchant, and then turned into a cluster of crystal crystals and merged into his body;
[Your stubbornness turned into the eternal crystal light. ]
Shade flicked his finger, and the long spear made of eternal crystal material emerged from the light around him and shot at the ancient, but was melted before it got close to him.
The ancient smiled and looked further away. In the darkness of the forest that even the moonlight of Shade could not illuminate, the ancient evil spirit that was almost devoured by the doctor again turned into a flame and pierced through the doctor's sealed space, and hit Shade straight at the moment. This also avoided the time paradox of a demon being devoured twice.
Enlightenment-Direction The brass-colored spirit rune broke away from the ring and appeared in front of Shade. The ancient fire-holding nun Sister Brock walked towards him with a weak flame. The ancient nun noticed the flame of the demon, so the demon was wrapped in another ball of fire in the air and turned into ash under the burning of the first fire. The nun nodded gently to Shade, then opened her arms and hugged him.
[The original fire guides you. ]
Whisper-Cowardice The black iron-colored spirit rune broke away from the ring and appeared behind Shade. The dead apostle Bronte appeared in black clothes from the black water that had not yet disappeared. This time, the Ancient One did not continue to attack, but watched the phantom that escaped death but eventually met death and crashed into Shade.
[All mortals will eventually die, the brave cannot escape, and the cowardly cannot escape either. ]
At this moment, except for the ring magicians who besieged Bennett and blocked the paradox worm, everyone stopped casting spells and fighting and looked at him.
The golden light blurred people's vision, but they could still see the golden miracle, the silver blasphemy, the brass enlightenment, the black iron whisper, and the four-color spirit runes surrounded the caller in a quadrilateral and gradually shrunk inward. People now generally believe that this is a necessary ritual for the caller before using the power beyond the thirteen rings.
The four-color strange illusion really overlapped with his body, and the moon in the starry sky directly melted the treetops above his head with moonlight. All the branches and leaves above the clearing disappeared in the moonlight. When the snowflakes fell, the sea of stars cast light on the clearing in front of the throne. The three-color moonlight shone on Shade and the three ladies behind him.
And those who could really observe Shade, at this moment, resisted the urge to kiss and kneel down to him, watching him close his eyes and look up at the moon.
The steam mist floated out from an unknown place, completely enveloping Shade, who was overflowing with four-color spiritual light. The bells and whistles sounded, and the huge hammer head fell from the dark sky, hitting the eight-ring life ring that was spinning at high speed with great force.
[Outsider, guide a drop of divinity to immerse the spiritual rune you prepared for the "Sublimation Language". ]
"She" reminded with a gentle voice.
Tick-tock~
As if a drop of water fell into the heart, the golden liquid guided by the soul infected the last spiritual rune "Enlightenment-Direction" of the fourth ring of the sublimation language.
One of the only two drops of divinity left cast another step of the "Twelve Divine Path to Godhood", and the light of divinity dissipated. When the nine-ring life ring appeared behind him, the gentle golden ripples spread everywhere. At this moment, it seemed as if time had ended. Everyone under the giant tree looked up at the figure under the moon, and the man under the moonlight looked up at the full moon.
When he looked down at the ancient again from the starry sky, the crack had spread from his right eye to his entire cheek, and then to his whole body. Brilliant golden light radiated from the cracks, until even the hem of the dress was dragged back in the night wind, leaving a golden residue.
At this moment, looking up in the snow under the moon, it was like looking at a living god.
