Chapter 1756 - 1185: Blocking the Path! You Can’t Pass?
At this moment, it was unclear whether even the magic system that maintained the natural evolution of the Hidden Land had sensed the anomaly tonight. The sky, which originally displayed a clear moon and twinkling stars, was suddenly obscured by thick layers of dark clouds, leaving not a trace.
Like a storm about to descend, a suffocating atmosphere engulfed the entire Hidden Land.
Fortunately, it was deep into the night, and many had already fallen asleep, blissfully unaware of what exactly transpired this moonlit night.
Amidst such circumstances, a wave of darkness, like fog, mingled within the thick dark clouds, swiftly darting towards the distance.
"Swish!"
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the dark fog.
"[Red]."
A cold voice sounded, and a bullet-like crimson light, akin to a mini supernova, shot forth, striking the dark fog that hadn’t even managed to react and was still fleeing forward at lightning speed.
"Boom!"
The dark fog collided with the approaching red light as if launching itself into a mini supernova, and was instantly shattered.
"—!"
The abyssal aura that exploded out seemed to lose rationality out of rage, roaring as it lunged towards Reiger.
"[Blue]."
Reiger reached out again, summoning a blue whirl in front of his palm.
Like a small black hole, the blue whirl floated gently before Reiger, releasing incredible gravity.
"Rumble—"
The gravity transformed into an invisible force, firmly anchoring the advancing dark fog.
Immediately, disregarding the fog’s wriggles and struggles, gravity wrapped around it, drawing it into the blue whirl as if tossed into a meat grinder, continuously shredding it.
Yet, even so, the dark fog continued to struggle and roar, showing no sign of ceasing to exist.
This was the troublesome nature of the abyssal aura, almost impossible to completely eradicate.
Fortunately, Reiger knew its nemesis.
"Clang—"
On his raised hand, the runes formed by the interlocking of three holy swords began to glow.
A force of holy sword power was extracted from the holy sword rune, and like a beam of light, Reiger shot it into the [Blue] before him.
"Sizzle...!"
The holy sword power bloomed wildly in the blue whirl, transforming into dazzling radiance, terrifying the struggling dark fog. It frantically writhed, but could never escape the overwhelming gravity, only to be engulfed and purified by the holy sword’s power.
Numerous streaks of black mist were vaporized by the holy sword’s power, quickly dissipating without a trace.
Before long, this surge of abyssal aura was entirely eradicated by Reiger, leaving nothing behind.
"The fourth one..."
Reiger withdrew his hand, silently counting the amount of abyssal aura he had resolved during his pursuit.
"Liz dealt with three, Lilith also resolved two, and Yuloli even more than me by one..."
For efficiency’s sake, once deciding to pursue the abyssal aura, Reiger and the others split up into four groups, each heading in different directions to chase them down.
With the holy sword rune, they could share the holy sword power with their attendants through their contract, so Reiger wasn’t worried about Yuloli and Lilith handling the abyssal aura. Thus, splitting up was naturally the most efficient.
As for Liz... the little princess had Moslo’s sword at hand, so there was no concern she couldn’t handle mere abyssal aura.
One could say that of all the abyssal aura scattered and fleeing tonight, probably more than half were resolved on the spot by Reiger and his team, leaving no aftermath.
"In this direction, there shouldn’t be any other abyssal aura, right?"
Reiger’s eyes gleamed with a transparent luster, drawing a thread of holy sword power from the holy sword rune into his eyes to merge with the transparent world.
Using this method, Reiger could detect the unique taint left by abyssal aura in the air, ensuring he wouldn’t lose track during the pursuit.
"Hmm, it’s more or less done."
Confirming no remaining traces of the abyssal aura in this direction, Reiger pondered to himself.
"Time to search in other directions."
Just as Reiger prepared to turn back and head in another direction to continue the pursuit of abyssal aura...
"Boom!"
In the distance, a surge of astonishing power suddenly erupted, ascending skyward.
"Hmm?"
Reiger halted, turning to gaze at it, a hint of surprise flickering in his eyes.
"This power is..."
He recognized this power.
It was an extremely cold power, chilling to the utmost degree.
A volcanic eruption spews scorching lava, but when this power erupts, although it rushes skyward like a volcanic explosion, it’s not lava but a blizzard that erupts forth.
Utter cold...
Extreme low temperatures...
"..."
Having vaguely guessed the source of the power, Reiger narrowed his eyes, falling into a brief silence.
Moments later, Reiger’s figure suddenly transformed into a streak of light, racing swiftly towards the source of the power.
However, as Reiger neared a certain distance to the power, another surge suddenly erupted, halting him.
"Zoom!"
This was a sharp sound of a sonic boom.
Amidst the sonic boom, another streak of light shot up from the ground, transforming into a meteor shooting toward Reiger’s direction at tremendous speed.
The true form of the streak of light was a sword blade.
