Chapter 799: Fall

I…

Elder Guan looked at the beam in front of him. His defense collapsed and he realized that there was no way he could overturn this situation. His heart felt calm and his expression changed.

He had a peaceful look on his face as the beam slowly swallowed him.

Elder Guan recalled everything. He was a young genius back then. He defeated the other witches and was hailed as one of the children that would bring the Witch Clan to the highest. Only a few people could match him. One of them was Amanda’s father.

They grew up together and became close friends as he watched him become the Clan Leader. They fought side by side for the future of the clan.

I… I’m going to meet you soon… I’m sorry that I didn’t protect your daughter.

Boom!!

Elder Guan tried his best but he couldn’t even stop the enemy’s attack. The energy beam broke through all of his defense and continued to move forward. Eventually, it reached Yuko’s location and caused a giant explosion.

The explosion caused a mushroom of clouds that reached hundreds of meters above the ground.

Everything around it was annihilated.

“Hmph, what a guy.” Drayrin smiled as he recalled Elder Guan’s last expression. Even in the face of death, he never showed fear and despair.

“Let’s go,” Ragnis said as he removed his gaze from the explosion. Even the aura of the bear disappeared so everything was finished.

“Fine.” Drayrin nodded.

They were about to leave when they felt a huge fluctuation of energy. The energy shot through the sky and bathed everything in crimson light. The mana bored down and pressured every living being in the area.

“This is…”

Drayrin and Ragnis opened their eyes widely. They were familiar with this brutal energy. There’s no doubt that this was the energy from the Blood Sacrifice.

The energy they gathered from performing the ritual throughout the years was finally unleashed. No one would have thought that the warrior who brought the perfect one to start their plan would also bring the greatest threat. But no one in the Hall of Power thought that it was a disaster.

For them, it was a challenge that they needed to overcome to complete their plan. There’s no such thing as smooth sailing in this world. Everyone has their own challenges. Luckily, they were prepared. The amount of energy they amassed through the sacrificial ceremony was enormous. It was enough for them to overcome this trial.

Their hard work wasn’t in vain.

Drayrin and Ragnis flew in the sky at the same time. They looked in the direction where the energy was coming from. It was far away but they could see people fighting in the distance around a huge monster.

“They are starting it… After this, we won’t have anything that could stop us in this place. We will be able to achieve our goal.”

The group of people was fighting people in armor around the huge monster. The monster’s body was terrifying as it emitted a vast amount of best feram that rendered the lower level experts useless.

ROAR!!!

Its approximate height was about five hundred meters. It has nine heads and its body was emitting a black fog that blocked most of the attacks that were coming at it.

It was the Nine-Headed Hydra.

The hydra was bathed in the crimson light as its terrifying strength was slowly corroding into nothingness. Still, it fought fiercely and directly killed several experts around it.

Ragnis and Drayrin watched the battle several dozens of kilometers away.

“Do you think they could stop that monster? There are other experts helping it.” Drayrin asked.

“They can. No matter how powerful a fifth stage is, it’s still a fifth stage in the end. The energy from the Blood Sacrifice comes from our Lord, the one and only true Emperor.” Ragnis answered.

“So, the Hydra will not be able to escape from it. After all, we’re using a large amount of energy from the Blood Sacrifice to suppress it. Plus, the hydra is weaker than I imagined.” Drayrin paused and added, “I heard that it was a powerful monster that Heracles couldn’t kill before.”

“Yeah, so Heracles only sealed it before reaching godhood. It means that it only got out of being sealed so its strength hasn’t recovered yet.” Ragnis smiled and shrugged his shoulders. “Nevertheless, it wouldn’t be able to escape imprisonment even if it gained its full strength.”

The Nine-Headed Hydra fought back fiercely. Even under the suppression of the crimson light, it still managed to show a powerful strength beyond their imagination. The experts around it tried to help it fight the people from the Hall of Power but they were suppressed by crimson light.

The crimson light in the sky grew brighter and bright. After a few minutes, it completely restrained all the experts that were helping the hydra. Even the hydra’s strength had diminished greatly. Soon, the light was too bright to the point that it blocked everyone’s vision.

Ragnis and Drayrin couldn’t even see what was happening there. But they knew that everything was going according to their plan.

The greatest threat in the plan would be suppressed in that place until they achieved their goal and the energy from the Blood Sacrifice disappeared.

“We need to get out of this place now,” Drayrin said.

“Well, we already completed our job and I’m quite excited to see the return of our emperor,” Ragnis said with an excited look. He was already imagining what would happen at that time.

Drayrin and Ragnis flew into the sky and left the White Wheat City destroyed. The city was devastated and a lot of people were caught up in the battle. The few survivors were trying to help people who were on their last breath. Drayrin’s last attack was so powerful that it even killed Elder Guan who was powerful among the One Shackle Realm.



Souta and Alice arrived at a certain area far away from the devastated White Wheat City. They were standing in front of a huge crimson crystal.

The crystal was emitting pure energy greater than what they’d seen before. Its height reached seven hundred meters and has a diameter of five hundred meters.

Inside the crystal was an enormous monster with nine heads. It was the Nine-Headed Hydra. Aside from Kessa, there were other experts too that were sealed inside it.

“I see… So everything that man said is true.” Souta narrowed his eyes.

“Are they sealed?” Alice asked worriedly.

“From the looks of it, yes,” Souta answered before he looked at the sky. The crimson energy net that covered the entire Hall Plains.

He continued, “I think that this is the energy from the Blood Sacrifice that they are talking about. It is connected to that thing that isolated the whole Hall Plains. If we wanted to crystal, then we have to break that crimson net first.”

“That’s…” Alice widened her eyes. That’s impossible with their current strength. The power of the crimson net was beyond their imagination.

Unless…

“The outside force helps us or we find the core of it,” Souta said.

“Outside force? Do you mean a God?” Alice asked as she observed the crimson energy net.

“Yes, only someone at that level could break it. The energy from that crimson net is too vast and it seems that the enemy collected that energy through Blood Sacrifice for a long time.” Souta paused as he turned his head to the towering mountain. “But the net seems to be fused with the Mountain of Demise. It means that breaking the net will also shatter the Mountain of Demise.”

“In short, the one sealed in that mountain will also break free.” Alice understood. She recalled what Governor Ray had said to her before. “The Hall of Power birthed a powerful creature and it seems that it alerted the Commandments.”

Souta glanced at her as it was his first time hearing this story. “Is that real?”

“Yeah.” Alice nodded and proceeded to recount what Governor Ray said to her.

Souta listened to her words and his expression slightly changed.

Five out of the Ten Commandments of God’s Will attacked the Hall of Power? That’s… It seems that there is a bigger scheme that he wasn’t aware of.

“So, the child of the Ancestor of the Hall of Power is suspected to be connected to the goal of God’s Will. Even the other gods are involved since they destroyed almost every evidence left of that child.” Souta rubbed his chin.

After thinking for a few minutes, he shook his head. He couldn’t think how or why? But he would know the answer once he goes to the Mountain of Demise.

This must be the Unprecedented Child in his quest.

Souta glanced at Alice and said, “Prepare everyone. We’re going to expand our reach and go to the Mountain of Demise.”

“Do you think that Yenxa is still alive?” Alice asked.

“Yes, I can still feel the connection between me and her through the contract. It seems that she is on that mountain too.” Souta nodded.
