It's that mysterious stone pillar.
This stone pillar, which had originally been broken into two pieces and fallen into the Sky City, was restored to one by Sun Fei for some mysterious reason during the process of Cleansing the corrupted Worldstone. It has stood silently in Sun Fei's body space ever since, no matter how Sun Fei Summon, there is no movement or response, just like a stubborn resident who refuses to move no matter what.
But at this moment, when Sun Fei's life was threatened, it suddenly trembled slightly.
That slight tremor caused a sudden and the Storm Riders change in the situation.
It was a power that defied description.
It burst forth instantly from Sun Fei's body.
If the power of Domenech's [ Sword of Flame Judgment ] was as formidable as a god descending to earth, then the power that surged forth with the slight tremor of the mysterious stone pillar was the rage of the King of Gods reacting to the provocation of his subjects.
No amount of flowery language can adequately describe the terrifying and awe-inspiring power this force evokes! It simply doesn't do it justice!
Devastating!
Unstoppable!
Like a sudden eruption of subterranean flames scorching thin paper, the enormous, imposing orange-colored sword of flame was utterly Resist against this force. Everything reversed; the orange light extinguished and vanished with a speed comparable to ice extinguishing a flame. The thousand-meter-tall orange-colored sword of flame shrank, like an icicle under the Scorching Sun, shrinking, shrinking, shrinking and shrinking!
"What is this...?" Domenech stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
The aura that suddenly emanated from Sun Fei caused even a Great Sun-Rank Venerable like himself to tremble in his soul, and he felt an urge to kneel down and worship.
Even his lifelong nemesis, Yassin, had never given him this suffocating feeling.
Under the astonished gazes, the enormous orange-flaming sword turned into smoke and ashes in less than ten seconds, completely disappearing into the sky. The sky, which had turned as dark as night, gradually returned to normal, and the surrounding scenery returned to its previous state, calm and serene, as if nothing had happened.
This terrifying power, like that of the king of gods, came in an unbelievable way and went away as fast as the wind.
Sun Fei paused for a moment, then gently spread his hands.
The [ Titan's Grip ] gloves had completely shattered and fallen off, and the [ Bul-Kathos' Soul Cage ] set durability had also dropped to below three digits, revealing the skin beneath the armor.
The arms, which had been scorched and roasted to a black charcoal color by the [ Sword of Flame Judgment ] and were almost ready for amputation, returned to normal the instant that power surged, their skin becoming white, tender, and supple, as if they had been reborn.
"What terrifying power, imbued with an unassailable majesty!"
This power surged from Sun Fei's body, so Sun Fei felt it most acutely. In the instant this power burst forth, Sun Fei felt as if he controlled all things in heaven and earth, and all the gods looked down upon him, as if he were the sole ruler of all the worlds.
One thought can make a flower bloom, another can make a tree wither; one thought Paradise, another to Hell!
All this power was brought about by the slight tremor of the mysterious stone pillar within his body.
Unfortunately, this mysterious stone pillar was like a miser. After sensing that Sun Fei was no longer in danger, it immediately returned to its previous lazy and silent state, completely calm, without releasing a single trace of power. No matter how Sun Fei Summon, he received no response whatsoever.
"Just now... that was... you couldn't possibly possess such power that doesn't belong to a criminal! What on earth happened?" Domenech, still shaken, stepped back a hundred meters away, staring at Sun Fei with an incredulous look, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
That force just now was incredibly powerful.
With just a light touch, he can be instantly reduced to ashes.
At that moment, he truly felt the breath of death. Just as he was about to give up in despair, that incredible power suddenly vanished, as if it had never existed.
He looked at Sun Fei, still shaken, trying to glean some clue from His Majesty the King's expression.
Sun Fei remained expressionless.
He took out a bottle of [ Full Rejuvenation Potion ] from his storage ring, uncorked it, and poured some into the Little Raccoon's mouth.
Soon the little guy woke up with a series of squeaking noises, looking dazed. He turned around and saw Domenech in the distance, and his reddish-brown fur and fat black and white striped tail all tucked up in fright. He looked anxious and scared, and jumped up and down, urging Sun Fei to leave quickly.
Behind Sun Fei, wisps of strange energy rhythmically emanated from the body of the Necromancer Hasselbaink, like the breathing of Giant. With each breath, the elemental forces of the small world surged and receded, gathering and surging back and forth.
This is a sign that you are about to succeed in your attempt to reach the Great Sun-Rank Venerable One.
"Impossible, this isn't your power, this is impossible..." Sensing the final transformation of the Necromancer's body and aura, Domenech's emerald eyes gleamed with a mixture of adventure and madness. Unable to discern anything amiss from Sun Fei's expression, he decided to test him again. "I refuse to believe you can unleash such power again! Take another one of my attacks! [ Meteor World Destruction ]!"
A rain of crimson swords, like a meteor shower, swept across the sky. Then, a fiery meteorite, over ten meters in diameter, crashed down from the sky, engulfing Sun Fei and the Necromancer.
A massive surge of flames erupted, tearing the sky apart and leaving behind streaks of crimson.
A serious expression flashed across Sun Fei's face.
After the fierce battle, he was sore and exhausted all over. He could only manage to appear capable of fighting, but in reality, he had no strength left to hold his weapon, let alone stop the terrifying fire meteors falling from the sky.
100 meters...
Fifty meters...
Thirty meters...
Ten meters...
Three meters...
Sun Fei remained motionless, feeling the intense heat of the meteorite crashing down on him. As the meteorite drew closer, the hurricane it created made it difficult for him to breathe.
However, His Majesty the King wore a smile.
A relieved smile.
Because, at that very moment--
boom!
A silvery-gray power surged into the sky behind Sun Fei.
Before this force, all the fiery meteorites were like pebbles swept up by a giant wave. Their flames were extinguished, and they flew back, like dandelion seeds in the wind, disappearing into the sky in an instant, never to be seen again.
The crisis was averted at the last minute.
"A moment later, and we'd both be smashed to pieces." Sun Fei's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. Instantly, he lost even the strength to stand, staggered, and half-reclined onto the [ Throne of Chaotic Times ].
"Luckily, I made it in time. Now, it's finally my turn to act." The Necromancer Hasselbaink slowly rose from the distance, and with a gentle wave of his hand, all the concealment magic arrays set up on the solitary peak vanished instantly.
Without the slightest fluctuation of Magic Power, Hasselbaink stepped through the void, each step accompanied by the blooming of a silver-gray Magic Power lotus. He arrived before Sun Fei Sun Fei, his towering figure blocking his path.
Just like Sun Fei before, who fought to the death and shielded him from all deadly attacks.
Although he was unable to move or speak, Hasselbaink had witnessed everything that had just happened. To be honest, the Necromancer never expected that Sun Fei would choose to die rather than compromise his life to protect someone he had known for less than a month.
Hasselbaink was suddenly overwhelmed with a sense of awe and emotion he had never experienced in his centuries-long life.
He was like an ancient tree lingering in the void, untouched by any worldly affairs, as calm as an ancient, desolate abyss.
However, his eyes burned with fighting spirit.
He stared intently at the blue-eyed, white-robed mage Domenech in the distance.
Sensing his opponent's burning fighting spirit, Domenech quickly recovered from the shock of the power that had previously emanated from Sun Fei.
A gust of wind billowed his white robes. Gripping his staff tightly, he sized him up, his expression unchanged, and smiled slightly. "You've advanced to the Great Sun-Rank Venerable faster than I expected; you are indeed a genius. Unfortunately, I've been at the Great Sun-Rank Venerable for a full year, while you achieved this in mere seconds. The difference in time means you're still a toddler in my eyes. So eager to challenge my dignity? Foolish!"
"Too verbose."
The Necromancer, impatient, flicked his hand as if swatting a mosquito, and an invisible force shot through the void and flew away.
A hint of anger at being slighted flashed in Domenech's emerald eyes, then Domenech gently raised his hand and pressed it forward.
boom!
The two forces of different attributes collided without any fancy moves.
In that instant, the violent power exploded like a magnificent firework, carrying a terrifying aura that dissipated in all directions.
"Uh... Pfft!"
With a muffled groan, Domenech screamed in terror as if he had seen a ghost, his face contorted in horror, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Without another word, he turned and fled into the distance.
Too late!
The Necromancer seemed to have anticipated his opponent's reaction, and simply waved his hand without any hint of hostility.
In an instant, the world changed color.
It was as if an invisible Enforcer was wielding a paintbrush, wildly splashing ink in the sky. The once clear sky suddenly darkened, and dark clouds of air, centered on the Necromancer, scattered in all directions with lightning speed. They quickly caught up with Domenech, who was desperately fleeing, and engulfed him in the dark clouds.
" The Great Sun Phenomenon? You grasped the Great Sun Phenomenon so quickly?"
Amidst the horrified screams of the white-robed, blue-eyed mage, Sun Fei discovered that the scenery around him had suddenly and completely changed, as if he had entered another world; everything had changed.
Second update.
