Just as Reilo saw it.
The Twilight Holy Flower is key to the Twilight Elves' resistance.
The tricolored glow of this sacred flower possesses an extremely terrifying purifying power, which is why Witcher Witcher Harpy Harpy gather around it.
Once this sacred flower is resolved, all difficulties will be easily overcome.
This is why the Witcher and Harpy Reilo encountered on the outskirts were generally only level 0 and level 1.
A gigantic, dark red eye, radiating an aura of Destruction and dread, unleashed beams of terrifying Destruction energy across the sky.
In a very short period of time.
After killing several Harpy, Reilo arrived near the Sealed Temple.
Who are you?
Upon seeing that this mysterious figure was so powerful, the Twilight Elves chieftain exclaimed.
"Just a scholar passing by."
Just as Reilo responded, a level 2 Harpy appeared.
With full, rounded breasts, long, straight legs, and not an ounce of excess fat on her body, this Harpy adorned with a string of gemstone pendants on her forehead looked down at the terrifying human standing beneath her dark red giant eyes.
From that giant eye, it sensed a terrifying power, a power that posed a threat to her.
But as one of the Grandmother of the Harpy, she had to face the threats head-on and not be like those lower-ranking harpies who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Without a word, his wings flapped violently behind him, unleashing a black, malevolent wind that eroded the soul, which surged toward Reilo.
An attack that targets the soul directly!
Reilo already has some countermeasures against this kind of attack.
The faint, malevolent black smoke surrounding Reilo transformed into twisted vengeful spirits. Some were enemies who had died at Reilo's hands, some were specimens that had died on the Dissection Table, and some were small animals that he had eaten. These vengeful spirits combined with the Touch of Moon Shadow and became black shadows filled with evil and cold aura. Reilo named them Moon Shadow Wraith and rushed towards this evil wind.
However, this dark gray evil wind was simply too strong.
The power exerted by Second-level creature was insufficient; these vengeful spirits were merely the lowest-level ones. Reilo hurriedly mobilized the spiritual power of the Moon Essence, and pale silver moonlight enveloped the <1024 Nights> Guardian Shield.
"Um..."
Although most of the evil winds were blocked, some still managed to infiltrate Reilo's mind, producing an effect similar to that of Howling Banshee, as if countless babies were screaming in his ears.
Reilo was momentarily stunned.
Bang!
An eagle's talon slammed into the <1024 Nights> Guardian Shield, sending Reilo flying with a muffled groan.
"Fighting against Second-level creature like this is still a bit too much of a stretch."
Emerging from his stunned state, Reilo unleashed a Bubble Technique, which the banshee evaded even faster. The Destruction Light Pillar of the Eye of the Sun pierced through layers of evil wind and black smoke, striking the Harpy. Even with only a small portion remaining, it still caused the banshee to shriek and kick Reilo away with another "bang."
The <1024 Nights> Guardian Shield was shattered after being attacked twice by the Harpy.
Moon Tide Force, Reilo floated in mid-air, looking at the Harpy's burned wounds. The two looked at each other with mutual wariness.
Reilo's left eye, a crescent-shaped pupil, flickered continuously before finally dimming again.
The Gulan Sand Flame consumes a great deal of Mental Power. It is best to use it when you are trapped or when you are in close combat. Releasing this mental fire out of thin air makes it easy for the opponent to avoid.
Moreover!
My goal this time is to break the seal, familiarize myself with the Descent Technique and the Star Evolution combat method. With that Old Monster behind me, there's no need for me to show off here.
As for how to break the seal... Hmph!
Surrounded by countless tricolored butterflies, Dai'er's aura grew stronger and stronger.
This flower, which has been blooming for who knows how many thousands of years, possesses an incredibly powerful ability to purify evil.
Even though the power that Dai'er could exert was only a tiny fraction of its own, it was still enough to easily suppress the combined forces of the Old Witch and the Harpy.
However.
Neither Dai'er in the sky nor the LingLe Saintess sitting on the flower's stamen noticed that a tiny, white, timid little thing was timidly emerging from the soil beneath the roots of the Twilight Holy Flower.
It was Whitey who had sneaked over using the Earth Escape Technique.
"For the butterscotch!"
Look around, then look at something else.
Watching the creatures fighting all around, the little guy's roots and tiny feet trembled incessantly, then it looked at the Twilight Holy Flower.
"Hey, big flower, some guy wants to see what's inside the seal. He wants you to rest for a bit. What will you offer in exchange?"
"Huh? You're going too far! I don't have that much pee! Just one pee at most!"
Not long after.
The little guy let out a "whoosh" and peed a stream of water, which landed at the base of the Twilight Holy Flower.
"Okay, then. I'm leaving!"
The little creature sank into the mud beneath its feet and disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened.
It is sacred and inviolable.
Enveloped in the glow of the twilight flower, Dai'er, like a divine Divine Messengers protected by the Gods, looked down upon the Old Witch and the Harpy.
"Foolish, evil creatures! For thousands of years, countless evil beings seeking to destroy world peace and beauty have been purified beneath the sacred flower. Your corpses will be a testament to the Twilight Elves ' commitment to protecting world peace."
The Old Witch's body was riddled with holes, and she was on the verge of death.
The Harpy Queen's situation was somewhat better, but not by much.
Once the Old Witch dies, death will be all that awaits her.
At that moment, she couldn't help but feel an indescribable despair.
"No wonder those predecessors all perished here. This Twilight Holy Flower is simply too powerful. Will I follow in their footsteps as well?"
Just then!
High in the sky, the majestic and awe-inspiring Dai'er suddenly sensed something. After her initial shock, a hint of panic appeared on her usually indifferent and dignified face.
It was the power of the Twilight Holy Flower, which was gradually fading away.
"Grandma Lingle?"
Dai'er was so panicked that she couldn't even fly. She slowly landed on the flower's stamen and looked at the old man on it.
The old man also showed a hint of panic.
"I don't know what's going on! I can no longer sense the power of the sacred flower!!"
The Old Witch, on the verge of death, completely fainted.
However, the Harpy in slightly better condition, realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With an excited shout, she disregarded her injuries and flew towards the Iron Tower with all her might.
"Oh no!!!"
Dai'er and the old saintess Ling Le cried out and ran after the Harpy, but without the power bestowed by the Twilight Holy Flower, the two were even unable to fly.
After the two ran into the iron chain tower.
Gazing at the damaged core of the Demon-Suppressing Seal, from which scorching black smoke continuously spewed from the ground—sounding like sulfurous magma from the deepest part of the earth—the two collapsed to the ground, their faces pale.
"It's over."
Despair filled Dai'er's eyes, and tears welled up in them.
"It's all over."
The cracks in the ground are getting bigger and bigger.
Glug, glug, glug...
With her heart pounding harder and harder, as if something terrifying was slowly awakening, her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Click, click, click.
The cracks in the ground continued to spread.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault. I was too weak. I'm a sinner of the Twilight Elves, a sinner of this world. I failed to protect this world, sob sob sob..."
The LingLe Saintess didn't even know how to comfort the tearful girl.
Each generation of Holy Maidens has only one mission: to protect the seal.
He made it his lifelong mission to prevent the terrifying Magic Creature sealed within from wreaking havoc on the world once again.
Dai'er cried her eyes out.
Even now, at the sealed exit, even facing death, nothing can disturb her.
Click, click!
The cracks in the ground seemed to have reached their limit.
The powerful heartbeat gradually subsided into calm.
A deathly silence!
Like the brief darkness before dawn, scorching black smoke billowed out continuously, allowing the three people enveloped within to clearly feel its terrifyingly powerful aura.
"Hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph..."
A sinister, low laugh, resonating with the very soul, emanated from the depths of the earth, seemingly transforming millennia of suppressed anger into the most brutal terror.
Simply by being affected by the soul resonance, Dai'er and Ling Le seemed to see a scene of hell, where countless living beings screamed in despair under its raging, terrifying silver shadow, and finally their souls became its dinner, being devoured by it.
"Evil! Evil! Evil! Evil! Evil! No one can stop the Death Shadow from descending! The Harpy will rise to power because of me!"
The weakened Harpy grinned wickedly, screaming hysterically.
Weakened, she looked at the cracks spreading across the ground and the increasingly hot, thick black smoke, a look of ecstasy and fascination on her face.
Boom!
Rumble, rumble, rumble...
In the terrifying black smoke that would turn ordinary people to ashes with the slightest contact, the ground and stone shattered and scattered. Dai'er, who had lost the will to live, was pushed away by the LingLe Saintess with her last strength and flew towards the distant Sealed Temple.
"Grandma Lingle!"
Dai'er screamed in pain.
"Live on!"
The old man was engulfed by black smoke in the blink of an eye.
"Too powerful! Absolutely too powerful! Is this the power of the Death Shadow?!"
The Harpy Queen couldn't help but swallow hard.
Even with her strong physique, she felt a slight burning sensation in the black smoke that naturally emanated from the shadow of Death Shadow. From the black smoke, a huge creature gradually emerged. She looked up at the black bird's head, which was almost the same size as her body, and her eyes revealed humility and longing.
The bird's head was covered with a layer of black feathers, which were also stained with some flowing lava. After falling to the ground, it gradually cooled and turned into stone.
A red crest adorned its head, black smoke billowed continuously from its nostrils, and jagged, sharp fangs emerged from the sides of its beak.
"Hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph, is it you who broke the seal and summoned my arrival?"
The second bird head, the third bird head, the fourth bird head, the fifth bird head...
From the black smoke of the underground magma, one terrifying bird head after another emerged, densely packed like giant serpents, filled with evil and death, staring at the trembling, weak Harpy.
Having inherited the bloodline of the ancient Thousand-Headed Bird, the Death Shadow may not have a thousand bird heads, but it does have a full ninety-nine bird heads!
"Evil, evil, evil! O embodiment of fear and death, great Death Shadow, I am Angenavaris, the Harpy! This world has been at peace for too long, and has long forgotten your aura of fear and death. The Harpy will be your most loyal servants, welcoming your dark descent, following in your footsteps, bringing endless fear to this world, until the very end. I will serve you forever!"
The Harpy queen cried out in fervor, then groveled in submission.
However!
With a sinister laugh, a bird-headed creature suddenly opened its massive, sulfurous maw and snapped its Harpy.
"Why?"
The weakened Harpy struggled desperately to support the giant bird's two rows of fangs within its jaws.
However, due to its extreme weakness, its body trembled uncontrollably under the astonishing power of the giant bird's fangs and jaws.
Why did you do that?!
"Hmph, you wanted to follow me, Harpy? Then I will grant you death, make your body a part of me, and let your soul dwell in my stomach, enjoying eternal terror, following me to bring fear and death to this world, hmph...
"Ah!!!!"
The sounds of chewing, screams, and satisfied laughter spread through the black smoke.
An astonishing number of bird heads swayed in the black smoke.
The iron chain tower collapsed with a deafening roar.
A giant golden claw, stained with lava, climbed the steps. Its enormous wings suddenly spread open, and it took flight, sending scorching black smoke billowing into the sky, blotting out the sun and casting Death Shadow in the setting sun.
Countless bird heads were entangled, and the evil, gleaming eye looked down at the Twilight Elves and Harpy below, as if watching a swarm of terrified ants.
