Several minutes later, the violent energy roaming the battlefield finally subsided.
The Scholar removed the ink ball, and the Taoist and the others gasped in shock at the sight before them.
Most of the block has been reduced to ruins, many places are on fire, and faint flashes of lightning can be seen from time to time.
The sarcoma, along with Ding Wenxuan, was split in two.
Red and green liquid was spilled all over the ground.
At the cross-section of the tumor, countless granulation tissues were slowly wriggling, trying to piece themselves back together.
But having lost its source of power, the tumor has become completely lifeless and is rapidly withering away.
The Taoist looked around.
The giant wielding a greatsword, who looked like a god descending to earth, had vanished without a trace.
The Fairy hovered above the two halves of the tumor, frowning as she looked at Ding Wenxuan.
" His Relic were stolen."
Upon hearing this, the Taoist immediately stepped forward to examine the situation.
Just as the Fairy had predicted, the Relic were gone.
He muttered under his Slacking on the Sidelines, "Damn it! Did we just waste the whole night?"
The Passerby A said calmly, "It wasn't a complete waste of time. We killed the part of Him that escaped the seal, so we indirectly saved the world."
The Taoist frowned and asked, "Who took it?"
The Fairy replied, "I didn't see clearly."
"She moved quickly, appearing and disappearing from the shadows."
" The Cloud Clan has disappeared." In the distance, Scholar standing by a pit suddenly spoke.
The group turned and looked over.
Slacking on the Sidelines: "I remember this pit. Baldy got pinned down in it before, and I guess he was turned into mincemeat?"
Passerby A pondered for a moment, "Could it be Relic he took as a memento?"
The Fairy shook her head. "It's a woman."
The Taoist sighed, "In any case, He was ultimately destroyed, and my purpose in coming to the Northern Territory can be considered achieved. Thank you all for your help tonight."
Slacking on the Sidelines, he said, "We're all brothers."
"By the way, where's that big guy?"
Everyone else was curious too.
Such a big thing, gone just like that.
The Fairy seemed thoughtful. "In the end, Ding Wenxuan was cut in two by him. After delivering that final blow, he vanished."
"Perhaps some big shot passing by," Slacking on the Sidelines.
Splash~ Splash~ Splash~
The Scholar was searching for something in the ruins.
Seeing this, the Slacking on the Sidelines suddenly reddened, and a mix of emotions welled up inside him.
" Fairy, there's something I need to tell you. Qin Ze... he's dead."
The Taoist priest lowered his head.
He was filled with remorse.
He's still a child.
The Fairy's aura erupted, and the group felt as if a mountain was weighing on their shoulders, making it extremely difficult to breathe.
"What did you say?"
The Fairy's voice was icy, colder than the snow in the Northern Territory.
The Taoist was filled with remorse. "I'm so sorry, it's all my fault..."
Is anyone there?
A sudden sound from the ruins interrupted the Taoist's words.
Upon hearing that familiar voice, the group was momentarily stunned.
The Scholar ran quickly towards the source of the sound, his voice excited, "Within a three-meter radius around me, the ruins have vanished!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ruins beside the Scholar vanished into thin air, and Qin Ze lay on the ground covered in dust.
The Scholar reached out and pulled him up.
"It's good that you're alive."
The Scholar's lips trembled, and in the end he could only utter four words.
You're incredibly lucky to be alive!
The others who Slacking on the Sidelines also ran over; the eyes of these grown men were slightly red.
Qin Ze smiled and said, "Luckily, I didn't slack off on my bone tempering."
The Fairy looked Qin Ze up and down, then said with disgust, "You're filthy."
Slacking on the Sidelines around Qin Ze's shoulder and said, "We won big tonight, how about we go celebrate?"
Qin Ze declined, saying, "My back and waist are aching right now, let's do it another day."
The Fairy yawned. "This Fairy is going back to sleep; staying up late is bad for your skin."
The Taoist bowed to the group again, saying, "Thank you all for your hard work tonight. Please go back and get some rest. I'll treat you to a meal in a couple of days."
After a brief farewell, the group went their separate ways.
A few minutes later, Qin Ze returned.
He walked to the edge of the ruins and whispered, " The Son of the Version has been secretly observing; they're all gone."
Immediately, ripples spread through the space in front of Thousand Faces, and Zhen Qin Ze appeared.
Qin Ze lay on the ground, looking seventy or eighty years older in an instant.
His hair was completely white, and his skin was dry and wrinkled, like pieces of old tree bark.
Not only that, but blood was constantly seeping from the body, making the person look as if they had just been pulled out of a pool of blood.
"Holy crap!"
What happened to you?!
Thousand Faces was utterly shocked.
Qin Ze spoke in a weak, intermittent voice, "Source... Crystal..."
Thousand Faces hurriedly retrieved the Source Crystal that the Saber King had given him from his storage ring and placed it on his chest, which finally allowed Qin Ze to catch his breath.
Qin Ze, who had just broken through to level 4.5 a couple of days ago, dealt damage comparable to Peak of Level Seven tonight with the help of various buffs.
But the price he paid was enormous.
Whether it's the Sage Time or the complete unleashing of the Desolate God Bloodline, both ultimately consume a large amount of Source of Life.
Fortunately, he had so many cattle and horses "remotely transfusing blood" to him, otherwise Qin Ze would be far more than just an old man.
"I'll take you back first."
To prevent the Source Crystal from falling to the ground halfway, Qin Ze stopped.
Thousand Faces stuffed the Source Crystal into Qin Ze's mouth to seal it, then hoisted him onto his shoulder and hurriedly left.
On a street on the outskirts of Snow City, a vibrant green sapling, about half a person's height, stands proudly amidst the snow.
A human head is stuck on top of the sapling.
Upon closer inspection, one can see that the human head and the sapling are seamlessly connected, as if they grew out of the tree.
The human head looked utterly dejected, gazing up at the gradually fading blood moon.
"What kind of weird fetish is this?"
"Anyone bored at night, pretending to be a little tree?"
Ma Yan stood with his arms crossed, marveling at the Taurus in the tree.
Hearing this, Niuniu finally snapped out of his daze, "Your assessment task..."
"It's over." Ma Yan held up a black object, about the size of a baby's fist and irregularly shaped, and weighed it in his hand.
Taurus hung his head, somewhat annoyed. "As the examiner, I wasn't by your side, so I couldn't give you a score."
Ma Yan dismissed it. "Anyway, I've completed my mission."
After a moment of silence, Taurus suddenly looked up and said, "Could you water my plants?"
Ma Yan twitched the corner of his mouth.
What kind of bizarre hobby is this?
Considering the other party was an examiner, Ma Yan still complied and poured a bottle of mineral water onto the tree.
The sapling suddenly began to grow rapidly, quickly reaching a height of over two meters.
Immediately, the tree trunk transformed into a torso and legs, and the branches became two arms.
Taurus has turned back into a human.
Ma Yan blinked, as if watching a magic trick.
Taurus stretched his limbs. "Let's go, I'll take you to see the president."
Abandoned houses outside Snow City.
Zhan Li warmed herself by the fire.
"Sigh~"
"I don't know when this will end."
"Nobody in the group is talking to me, and I have no idea what's going on in the royal family."
"Looks like I'll have to risk going back."
Zhan Li poked at the fire with a stick and muttered to himself.
With a "plop," it sounded like something had fallen to the ground outside.
Zhan Li immediately extinguished the fire and peeked out the window with half his head out.
Not far away, a bald man with blood-stained wings lay in the snow.
Seemingly noticing Zhan Li's gaze, he raised his head with difficulty.
For a moment, their eyes met.
