Chapter 641 All Souls!
Seven cards float in the air.
On the third-ranked "Babylon" card, Pillar Spirit Ye Jiana slowly exhaled, caressed her chest and said:
"It's unbelievable...Xiao Wu, you really accomplished this incredible thing."
She flew out from the card, reached out to catch the sixth card "Endless Ritual", and flew into the Pillar of Babylon.
There was a moment of silence.
The divine pillar suddenly burst into light that reached the sky.
This brilliance broke through the clouds, went straight into the void, and extended towards unknown distant dimensions.
——The ceremony begins!
But this is not a ritual to call out the strange, but a reversal ritual of eternal ascending order!
Wu Xiaode was so shocked that he almost lost his mind.
suddenly.
A strong sense of crisis emerged in his heart.
Yes.
The monster has seen himself.
It must have sensed everything that happened here——
It's coming!
The Human Emperor floated in mid-air and said in a deep voice:
"The swarm of insects is coming, Xiao Wu, you'd better stick to the pillar."
Wu Xiaode immediately flew forward and pressed his back tightly against the Babylonian Pillar.
The next second.
A stream of light hit the ground not far from the Pillar of Babylon.
boom! ! !
The sky was dark and the earth was shaking violently.
——The Tomb World begins to collapse!
A huge black shadow came out of the void and stood not far from the Pillar of Babylon.
Its body was as tall as a mountain, and its black bones were covered with insects.
Giant dark skeleton!
"Destroy, God Pillar."
It spoke out.
The boundless dark aura spread out from it and extended towards the Babylonian Pillar, trying to completely cover it.
"This is my way home, how can I allow you to destroy it?"
Human Emperor said.
He whispered the incantation.
Almost at the same moment, the heroic spirits all over the sky chanted obscure spells.
All the power of their laws condenses into boundless, invisible, and silent ripples, which slowly spread out.
These ripples turned into dazzling runes in the void, flying around the divine pillar.
The spreading dark aura was immediately and completely eliminated.
Upon seeing this, the giant dark skeleton burst into a high-pitched roar.
In its roar——
The entire tomb world is about to completely collapse into the void!
However, the Human Emperor stretched out his hand, grabbed a card, and whispered:
"The brilliant holy light will protect the base and body of the divine pillar, making them as majestic as the sea, as stable as usual, and as strong as a saint!"
The card was thrown.
——It is the fourth in the deck, "Brilliant Holy Light"!
But the card turned into a blazing holy light, falling like a tide and the sea, soaking the earth.
"Ahhhhh!"
The giant dark skeleton roared, raised its arm, and punched the ground with all its strength!
The world seemed to turn into silence.
However, Wu Xiaode knew that this was not silent, but the sound was so loud that it temporarily exceeded the level that all living beings could hear.
In this silence, he saw all the white bones on the earth being shaken into the air, flying out of the world like wind and residual clouds, and turning into powder in the void.
But!
But the entire tomb world and the Babylonian Pillars that stand above the world are safe and sound!
This is the function of the fourth deck: Brilliant Holy Light!
In mid-air, the heroic spirits chanting incantations became more and more urgent, and the light on the divine pillar became more and more blazing.
Something seemed to open deep in the sky.
At this critical moment, all the insects on the giant black skeleton let out a sharp scream:
"Seven days!"
"In the laws of all living things, everything takes seven days to be completely completed!"
"You cannot connect to the Holy World at this moment!"
Invisible fluctuations emanated from the giant dark skeleton, passed through the glorious holy light, and landed on the Babylonian Pillar.
A line of small words in ice crystals also popped up in front of Wu Xiaode’s eyes:
"The other party's spell is established, and this ceremony must be held for seven days before the Holy World can be successfully communicated."
Seven days!
Wu Xiaode stared at the blazing power on the entire holy pillar and couldn't help but feel guilty.
Can such power last for seven days?
But he saw the Human Emperor holding another card in his hand and saying quickly:
"Stars in the eternal night, you are the broken vitality of the laws. You have witnessed the collapse of the divine pillar and know the enemy's tricks——"
"You know my power and have been waiting for me. Use your true power now."
The card suddenly broke free from his hand, flew into the sky, and turned into countless stars.
——One of the decks, Eternal Night Stars!
In the blink of an eye, the stars flickered on and off seven times in a row.
The huge dark skeleton shouted sternly: "No! You are not worthy-"
The insects all over its body released countless spells, hitting the divine pillar like meteors.
However, the sacred pillar is protected by the "Brilliant Holy Light". Occasionally, some aftermath damages the pillar, and the "Elegy of Civilization" continues to repair it——
It cannot interrupt the ritual!
Wu Xiaode watched quietly, and suddenly thought of the function of "Eternal Night Stars".
"Use it to directly skip the process of something and achieve the best result of the event."
——Skip the seven-day limit directly!
It turns out that every card in the deck will play a key role in this historic moment!
They are indispensable!
Ye Jiana's joyful voice sounded from the sacred pillar:
"The ceremony is completed!"
"No, it's not enough. Now we have to directly raise the ceremony to a higher level." The Human Emperor said.
He gently placed the second card "Heir of the World Tree" on the sacred pillar.
"Use my remaining holy power to activate this card again."
On the card, the burning world tree suddenly returned to green again, and the fallen leaves also flew back to the branches, exuding vitality.
"The heir of the World Tree."
"Special card, the source of blessings for all living beings, the king of curses for the growth of all things, the second tomb deck of all laws."
"Description: Cover this card on one of your skills, which can immediately increase the skill by one level and last for one hour."
"——Any skill is acceptable, no exceptions."
The card sank into the Pillars of Babylon.
The Human Emperor turned to look at Wu Xiaode.
"Xiao Wu, what is your wish?"
he asked.
Wu Xiaode clasped his hands together and said: "It turns out that the master is so strong that even monsters can't do anything to you, so my wish is very simple——"
"I want world peace."
The Human Emperor stared at him and pointed in the direction of the monster.
Wu Xiaode turned his head and looked.
I saw the towering body of a giant black skeleton slowly kneeling on the ground, chanting a completely incomprehensible spell loudly.
All the bugs on it screamed in unison.
"Did you see it? It felt that the situation was out of control, so it was calling for those truly powerful and strange beings."
"——Say your true wish."
"You collected the deck, and your wish determines the final outcome of the ceremony!"
Wu Xiaode did not dare to make excuses anymore and said seriously:
"I hope I can have a chance to defeat those monsters and let humans survive."
The Human Emperor nodded and said softly: "Remember your wish."
The words have not yet finished.
The divine pillar suddenly gradually became transparent.
The majestic and brilliant lights took shape one after another, turning into a ladder of light.
The Human Emperor stood on this ladder and climbed up step by step.
His clothes and flesh and blood skin began to peel away, revealing the endless light inside, shining on the huge dark skeleton kneeling on the ground, and even throughout the world in all directions.
At this moment, he was like a light-shaped person!
Wu Xiaode was shocked beyond measure.
However, a whisper came from his ear:
"Xiao Wu, come quickly."
Wu Xiaode was slightly startled.
This is Ye Jiana's voice. What is she talking about?
"You can enter the tower by pushing your body backwards. Quick, hurry up." Ye Jiana urged.
Wu Xiaode did as he was told and leaned hard against the divine pillar.
The wall suddenly flipped 180 degrees.
In the sacred pillar, Ye Jiana was already waiting aside. She took Wu Xiaode's hand and ran towards an altar.
"Hey, why are you calling me here?"
Wu Xiaode asked as he ran.
Ye Jiana said quickly: "We don't know what that monster will summon, so the Human Emperor will attract the other party's attention outside, and you will complete the real ritual here."
She stood on the altar with Wu Xiaode.
Seven cards are arranged in sequence above the altar. In the card of the Human Emperor, you can see him turning into a light figure, still climbing along the ladder.
When he found that Wu Xiaode was looking at him, he nodded towards Wu Xiaode and said:
"Quickly, complete the ceremony!"
"Master, Ye Jiana, wait——"
Wu Xiaode couldn't help but wanted to say something, but Ye Jiana interrupted him and said:
"We can't wait any longer, we don't know what's going on in our hearts - you quickly close your eyes, put your hand in the center of the seven cards, and feel everything quietly until a certain name arises in your heart, and you call it. ”
At this moment, Wu Xiaode clearly sensed the inexplicable eagerness and fear conveyed by the Human Emperor and Ye Jiana.
He no longer hesitated, raised his hands, and placed them on the seven cards.
Almost instantly.
There were countless heroic spirits inside the divine pillar, all surrounding him, singing hymns in unison.
Wu Xiaode seemed not to hear it, but felt it wholeheartedly.
Everything turned to darkness.
Soon he lost all sense of time and space.
The world seems not to exist, and everything about myself has been forgotten. Everything gathers and disperses, turning into eternal silence.
In this silence, nothing exists and everything exists.
Maybe——
Is this eternity?
Wu Xiaode quietly realized everything, and suddenly a thought emerged in the darkness:
"What... do you want?"
As soon as this idea emerged, he was stunned for a while before reacting.
This is not my own thought.
Rather, it is some kind of indescribable existence that is asking itself questions with the help of its own thoughts from a faraway place that is far out of reach.
yes.
What do I want?
In this eternity, I don’t need anything, and I don’t want anything.
--wrong!
I want——
Everything that just happened seemed to "come alive" and appeared in Wu Xiaode's mind.
The huge dark skeleton knelt on one knee, clasped his hands, and the insects all over his body chanted spells in unison, calling out for the unknown terrifying existence.
The Human Emperor is still climbing up the ladder to heaven.
And he is completing the entire ceremony in the divine pillar.
The memory flashed, and the fragment just now was repeated again.
Wu Xiaode saw himself saying to the Human Emperor: "I hope to have a chance to defeat those monsters and let humans survive."
Human Emperor Dao:
"Remember your wish."
desire.
Yes, my wish is——
Wu Xiaode had an idea and shouted with all his strength: "I want to defeat those monsters! I want humans to have a chance to survive!"
Waited for a while.
A new idea comes to mind:
"Got it."
knew?
Who is telling me that I know?
What kind of existence is it?
Wu Xiaode gradually stopped thinking about these "mundane thoughts".
The eternal power descended from the sky and gathered on him, making him unable to have distracting thoughts anymore.
In this ceremony in the holy world, he was filled with the power to cut off everything, soaring into the sky, forming a luminous ladder.
——Another ladder!
Time seems to have passed for a long time, and it seems that not even a second has jumped.
A brand new idea emerged in his mind:
"You will have the power to destroy all strange things, and all human civilization will be saved. However, your master will not be able to ascend to the holy world in time, and he will be completely swallowed up by the powerful power of strange things."
"Or——"
"You can only gain the strength to fight against Qigui, the war will continue, and your master can successfully return to the holy world."
"Choose!"
Wu Xiaode said without thinking: "Let my master go back."
Another thought came to mind:
"Are you sure you want to do this? You could have defeated Qigui directly, but you have to save him? Is it worth it?"
Wu Xiaode said: "Of course it's worth it. Listen, my wish is that he can go back and let him go back!"
There was silence.
A thought suddenly appeared in his mind:
"Call me now."
"You are?"
"I am the true form of your master, the eternal devil in the holy world, the hand of reversal, the devourer of life and death, the one who looks down on all worlds."
"——Or you can call me 'Wanling'." (End of Chapter)
