Rock City.
Leaden clouds filled the sky, torrential rain poured down, and thunder roared across the heavens, yet it could not drown out the agonizing screams emanating from the city!
Many people knelt on the ground, convulsing in pain and rolling around.
Their bodies kept disappearing, turning into rising black smoke.
Scattered around these people were severed limbs and mutilated remains, a bloody and horrific sight!
Those were humans who had already died in the blood sacrifice!
However, the life essence and soul within the body are still extracted and transformed into a special energy in the form of black smoke.
This small town in the rain, devoid of the beauty of spring, resembles a living Purgatory!
"Faster!"
The Serpent-Eyed Law Spirit quickly gathered the black smoke, its gaze sweeping across the surroundings. It urged the other two Law Spirit, saying, "We've been exposed! The blood sacrifice of a million people will definitely attract the pursuit of the Federation's powerful figures!"
Tiger-Headed Spirit was rather unrestrained and not overly nervous, saying, "Don't scare yourself. There are only a few dozen experts at the Sofa realm in the Federation."
Not even one could be allocated to an entire administrative region!
We've already taken care of one; the only powerful individuals who can handle this will have to be transferred from other administrative regions, so we have enough time.
The humanoid Law Spirit nodded, forcing a smile, and said, "The energy collected from this blood sacrifice should allow the Nine Clouds Wind Bat to improve even further. Once the Martial Star recovers, it should be able to restore its Earth Realm combat power!"
However, considering that Ning Chuan has already returned to Martial Star, we should not be greedy. After the blood sacrifice is over, we should immediately tear open the space and enter the Dimensional Space to leave.
Although heading to the space anchor point is a waste of time, at least we won't be caught up...
His voice abruptly stopped.
Because the head is gone!
Above the headless corpse, a jet-black beam of light shot out from the dark clouds, boundless and filled with terrifyingly sharp energy, piercing through heaven and earth!
The Serpent-Eyed Law Spirit and the Tiger- Law Spirit were both stunned, staring blankly at the headless corpse that was beginning to spit blood, feeling somewhat lost and helpless.
They had absolutely no idea what the dark pillar of light was, or when it had appeared!
Sizzle!
Suddenly, a chilling aura spread out, and another jet-black beam of light pierced through the heavens and earth, boundless and limitless, instantly annihilating the tiger-headed Law Spirit's head, leaving only a headless corpse spitting blood.
The snake-eyed Law Spirit felt a chill run through its body and began to tremble uncontrollably!
This time, he vaguely saw a dark pillar of light, not any kind of light.
That was a jet-black spear!
Because of its incredible speed, it pierced through the void, leaving behind a pillar of light that stretched from heaven to earth!
Gloomlight Spear!
As Ning Chuan's Heaven and Earth Piercing Law reached the High-Stage Spring Realm, this martial art naturally advanced to the fourth level by absorbing and comprehending the Law!
The next moment, a tall and slender figure appeared in the Serpent-Eyed Law Spirit's sight. His black hair was wildly dancing, and his eyes were like lightning. The pressure he exuded was overwhelming and terrifying, so much so that the Serpent-Eyed Law Spirit could not muster the slightest thought of resistance!
"Ning... Ning Chuan..."
The Serpent-Eyed Law Spirit's voice trembled, and before he could finish speaking, his body shuddered violently and collapsed into the most basic particle state!
Ning Chuan's eyes were icy cold, giving him no chance to explain.
Three Law Spirit, not one spared!
He has already discovered the tragic Rock City.
As for the information needed, it can be found through soul searching!
"Uncle Knight... please save my mom, please save my mom, she won't talk to the baby anymore, please..."
A sobbing sound came from the street below.
The location where Ning Chuan was suspended in mid-air was not very high, only a few dozen meters. It was spotted by a little girl wearing a chubby bear raincoat. She was probably only in preschool age. Ignoring the cold rain hitting her face, she desperately shouted for help.
Blood sacrifice requires a process and is carried out in batches.
The little girl wearing the chubby bear raincoat was lucky enough to miss it.
But her mother wasn't so lucky; she lay motionless on the ground, her fate unknown.
Half of his body disappeared, transforming into black mist.
His only remaining left hand gripped the little girl's wrist tightly, never letting go.
As you can see, there is a line of crooked and irregular writing on the little girl's chubby bear raincoat, written by the mother. The last few words are even more severely distorted.
It seems he was writing while enduring immense pain!
"Baby, if you survive, please remember, Mommy really loves you..."
The heavy rain washed down, soaking the little girl and gradually blurring the words.
Ning Chuan took a step forward and landed close by.
"You... you're not Uncle Knight..." The little girl in the chubby bear raincoat paused for a moment, then recognized him. "You're Ning Chuan from TV!"
Ning Chuan is very well-known in the Federation.
Especially in my hometown Donglin Administrative Region, numerous documentaries are shown in rotation, posters are everywhere, and sculptures have been erected in various universities...
Everyone knows this; it's not just empty talk.
A glint of light flashed in the little girl's eyes. She was very sensible; forcing back her tears, she pleaded, " Ning Chuan, can you save my mom? Dad and Grandpa both say you're the best. I have lots of pocket money; I can give it all to you. Please save my mom..."
In her naive understanding, anyone who could fly was Knight.
"Don't worry, your mother will be fine."
Ning Chuan raised his hand and pressed down, releasing a wisp of pure energy that shot into the sky and separated like a celestial maiden scattering flowers!
A thread pierced into the little girl's mother's body.
The others penetrated into the other screaming or unconscious civilians in the Rock City.
Blood sacrifice extracts souls and life force.
Ning Chuan can be cured.
However, blood sacrifices refine the soul, and if the damage is too severe and cannot be fully healed, some aftereffects are inevitable.
Fortunately, the little girl's mother's blood sacrifice was not severe, and her mutilated body gradually healed.
Her tightly closed eyelids began to tremble slightly.
"Mommy! Mommy! It's me, your baby!"
The little girl in the chubby bear raincoat was both happy and anxious, but she didn't forget Ning Chuan. She quickly bowed and thanked him, saying, " Ning Chuan, Brother Ning Chuan. When Mommy takes me home, I'll give you all the pocket money in the chubby bear piggy bank!"
Ning Chuan patted the little girl's head, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to smile.
People like the little girl's mother are only a minority.
He was powerless to help or heal those humans who had died in the blood sacrifice.
Some people didn't even leave behind a body.
Ning Chuan arrived quickly enough, but by the time he received the message, the blood sacrifice had already begun.
Nearly one-tenth of the population died in the blood sacrifice.
This seemingly low percentage is a shocking figure when considered within the context of Rock City's population.
Around 100,000 lives!
Ning Chuan stood silently in the rain- Rock City.
He could hear the excited shouts and cries of the survivors, filled with the joy of surviving a near-death experience.
Just like the little girl in the chubby bear raincoat and her mother.
He could also hear the despair of people who had lost loved ones, kneeling in the rain, weeping bitterly, heartbroken.
A middle-aged man passed by Ning Chuan, his eyes lifeless and his steps stiff, like a walking corpse. It was not hard to imagine that he had just experienced a life-or-death separation.
Ning Chuan remained expressionless, his eyes unchanged.
Having witnessed countless life-and-death situations along the way, he possessed an incredibly resilient mindset, and the events before him would not cause him to lose his composure.
But the killing intent in his heart was like a raging storm, directly materializing and soaring into the sky!
The dark clouds that had been shrouding Rock City vanished in an instant!
The late spring sun shone down, casting a gentle warmth upon the people of Rock City. While it could not alleviate the sorrow in some hearts, it could dispel some of the chill of the rain.
Swish!
At this moment, Wei Chen arrived in Rock City and appeared beside Ning Chuan. Looking at the silent young man before him, he sighed and said, "This is not your fault. In chaotic times, casualties are inevitable. The same was true during the Twin Martial Star War of that year."
Ning Chuan calmly withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.
"Principal, your question... I think I have the answer."
Soon after, three messages spread like wildfire throughout the Federation, sweeping across various regions.
The Federation has entered a state of war!
Ning Chuan was appointed Supreme Commander!
Heavenly King title
It's called "Quelling Chaos "!
