Did It Work?

The [ Altar of Resurrection ] is neither particularly grand nor mysterious. On the surface, it is just a simple six-meter-high stone base. The light gray Rock surface is extremely rough and covered with the marks of time. The patterns carved on it have long been mottled under the erosion of time, and most of them have become blurred and lost their original appearance.

The truly terrifying part lies at the bottom of the altar.

An extremely complex pale blue magic circle was engraved on the surface of the altar's top—or rather, it was imprinted. The intricate pale blue patterns seemed to have been naturally formed on the Rock, contracting and expanding like blood vessels with an extremely strange rhythm. The stone surface resembled a blooming, dazzling flower. At certain moments, extremely subtle magic circle patterns could be revealed, vast and complex like a sea of smoke, making it impossible to discern what type of magic circle it was.

Behind them came roars, howls, and the sounds of violent impacts.

Sun Fei glanced back.

The evil god Kluivert struggled and thrashed wildly like a caged lion, unleashing terrifying power in all directions. Unfortunately, he was still unable to break the Divine Runes light prison created by the [ Scroll of God Imprisonment ], and the greatsword evil weapon only left a fleeting, shallow mark on the silver light membrane.

The [ Scroll of God Imprisonment ] is, after all, the most cutting-edge product of the [ Madman's Laboratory ], incorporating Divine Runes. Even a true Demon God would not be able to easily break out of the light prison, let alone Kluivert's strength, which had not yet fully recovered.

Since Kluivert was unable to break free for the time being, Sun Fei could now focus all his attention on the altar.

The spiritual death, like strands of hair, formed a fine, dense network, tentatively penetrating the magical array on the stone surface. Sun Fei had studied magical arrays with the nun and Uncle Cain, and had systematically learned the principles and systems of various categories of magical arrays from the era of gods and demons on [ The Demon King's Sharp Sword ]. He clearly knew that there was an eternal theorem about magical arrays—any seemingly complex magical array was composed of simple magical circuits. As long as the basic unit of magical operation was understood, all the problems would be easily solved.

However, precisely because of this, magicians generally set up some protective measures or deceptive traps when arranging magic circles, making it difficult for later visitors to discover the operating principle of the basic unit magic circuits, and leading those who try to understand the magic circle astray, thereby triggering the power of the magic circle and causing death.

Generally speaking, the more complex the magic circle, the better the protective measures in this regard.

The main reason why the [ Altar of Resurrection ] can erase the power of the Millennium Seal and revive the Demon God who has fallen into the dark abyss is its complex blue magic circle diagram. This shows how powerful the magic circle is, and its protection measures for its own magic circuits are also very ingenious.

Therefore, for Sun Fei, breaking this magic circle would definitely be an extremely slow process.

Even without any disturbances, it would probably take Sun Fei at least ten days to half a month to break through such a near- God Level magic array.

However, the [ Scroll of God Imprisonment ] could not possibly keep Kluivert trapped in the Light Prison for such a long time.

As soon as Kluivert breaks out of the light prison, Sun Fei will have to run away.

Fortunately, for Sun Fei, his goal was not to break this God Level magic array, but merely to destroy it—to destroy a magic array, one only needs to destroy a small part of the magic circuit, just like to destroy a finely operating machine; you don't need to smash the whole machine, but only need to pull out a key screw.

Four or five minutes later, a look of joy appeared on Sun Fei's face.

He had already identified several key magical circuits within this auditing magic circle. He condensed his Spiritual Power into tiny blades, and once these magical circuits were severed, the entire magic circle would lose its original effectiveness and cease its erosion of the Millennium Seal.

However, this process is also quite dangerous.

Destroying the structure of the magic array will result in a backlash from the entire magic array. The backlash power of the God Level magic array in front of him is at least equivalent to the full-force attack of a Great Perfection of the Scorching Sun Great Sun Venerable Rank at the Great Perfection of the Sun Realm. With Sun Fei's current strength, he needs to be cautious and avoid the backlash, otherwise, he will immediately die a bloody death.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Sun Fei's forehead.

Sweat eventually mingled with the blood on his body, soaking Sun Fei's numerous wounds and flowing onto the ground.

He thought of a Spiritual Power from the [ Purple Skill Of ] list, perfect for this task. He quickly familiarized himself with it and then carefully began severing the magical circuits on the ground...

boom!

A deep blue beam of light, carrying incredible power, suddenly shot out from the [ Altar of Resurrection ], grazed Sun Fei's shoulder, pierced through the still-partially collapsed dome of the [ Temple of Sacrifice ], shattered the azure light shield above the entire Sea Clan city, and crashed into the vast ocean, disappearing without a trace!

This force was overwhelming and inescapable, sending shivers down one's spine.

So much so that for a long time after it disappeared, a pale blue vacuum remained in the air. The sky-blue protective shield at the top of the city, which had a strong restorative ability, could not be restored in a short time. Fortunately, the endless seawater was also forced open by this force to create a vacuum channel, as if it had been frozen, making it difficult for it to flow back in and thus not threatening the safety of the Sea Clan city!

"It's done!"

Sun Fei was overjoyed. He had successfully severed the key magic circuits on the magic circle diagram and diverted the terrifying backlash of the God Level magic circle. At this moment, the pale blue magic circle on the [ Altar of Resurrection ] was like a punctured balloon, slowly leaking its accumulated power. The pale blue patterns were getting dimmer and dimmer, disappearing little by little.

"Damn it! How could... such an unforgivable human being!"

Kluivert's expression changed drastically upon sensing the shift in the power aura emanating from the distant altar.

He struggled even more frantically, slashing out shocking white marks on the Divine Runes light prison. It seemed the [ Scroll of God Imprisonment ] wouldn't last much longer.

"This power... it's not Lord Kluivert's power, so what is it...?"

Standing at the relatively intact gate of the now completely collapsed [ Temple of Sacrifice ], the Sea Clan's Lord watched the terrifying power disappear into the sea. She had completely lost her initial composure. She had been waiting for the battle within the temple to end, but a series of unexpected changes seemed to have rendered her heavy sacrifices futile.

"Could this damned Human Clan be the legendary variable... Damn skeleton, he didn't say this Human Clan was this powerful!"

The Sea Clan's ruler recalled the mysterious black figure and the pact between him and the entire Sea Clan. In that instant, a flash of lightning struck her mind, and she suddenly realized that perhaps the Golden Skeleton hidden in the black cloak was concealing some extremely important information from her.

Even more miscalculation was that, clinging to the pride of the Sea Clan that had endured for millennia, she disdained the Human Clan and failed to thoroughly investigate the detailed information about this Human Clan named Alexander, leading to a serious misjudgment.

"Could it be that, more than a thousand years later, the continent has truly fallen completely under human rule? Has Human Clan really become so terrifying?"

The Lord of the Sea Clan turned his head and glanced at the ruins of the [ Temple of Sacrifice ] behind him. He did not enter it, but after a moment's thought, he transformed into a golden streak of light and disappeared into the sky above the city.

"Hahaha, you scum, come on, come on, let me show you the power of Lord Lloris!"

At the entrance to the Teleport portal, Lloris, covered in blood, was a far cry from his usual elegant and handsome self. He held a magic Long Spear in his hand, using it as a staff, and blocked Teleport portal by himself. He looked as if he had been soaked in a pool of blood, utterly disheveled.

Second update.
