Chapter 420 - 421: Voranthos
Chapter 420 - 421: Voranthos
With just one strike, Lazuli and Vera had already lost all ability to resist.
But thanks to Lazuli’s timely release of Divine Protection, the two beastbonds survived from the Abyss’s grasp.
However, at this moment, the two beastbonds had completely lost their ability to resist.
Thus, the Demon God Valley merely glanced disdainfully and focused its gaze on the blood mist that had not yet fully dispersed in front of it.
Here lay three Divine Patterns emitting a pure golden light, containing the Origin Power of the Human Race’s fortune.
At this moment, they were hovering quietly like ownerless things.
The glow remained brilliant, yet seemed to have lost its spirituality.
"Got it!"
The Demon God Valley’s face revealed a genuine, satisfied smile.
If these three Divine Patterns representing the Human Race’s legacy and hope were thoroughly tainted, demonized, or outright destroyed...
Then the fortune accumulated by the Human Race would completely collapse, and the foundation of this race would be severed!
Moreover, with the disappearance of these three Divine Patterns...
The other Demon Gods would also be able to enter the Alternate Space again by relying on the power of these demonized Divine Patterns!
By then, what remains would be unilateral slaughter.
"It’s settled!"
He sneered, extending a hand covered in viscous demonic qi, slowly reaching for the three Divine Patterns.
The dense demonic qi, like living tentacles, wound around it, beginning to frantically erode the golden surface of the Divine Patterns!
"ZzzzZZZ——"
Under this power’s corrosion, the three Divine Patterns violently trembled, letting out cries of agony!
The originally pure and brilliant golden light dimmed and faded at a visibly fast speed.
Ominous black Demon Patterns began to surface on the edges!
Meanwhile.
Seeing the Divine Patterns start to disintegrate under the Demon God’s power, the two of them trembled simultaneously!
They could clearly sense that the Divine Patterns deep within their souls were also weakening at the same time.
They had indeed reached their limit, their bodies felt waves of exhaustion, consciousness began to blur.
Killing the Demon God, avenging their master...
Was no longer possible!
At this thought, despair instantly engulfed them both.
Lazuli watched the Divine Pattern being polluted by demonic qi, then looked towards where Aster Grant fell.
Her golden eyes, filled with sky-reaching rage and unwillingness, gradually dimmed.
Replaced by a dead silence of desolation.
With her master gone, what was the point of her fight?
Vera’s emerald eyes also lost all their glow, the Swarm King’s brutal will dispersed, leaving only endless emptiness.
She seemed to return to that lonely past when her master was lost.
But this time, she no longer wanted to live alone.
The two beastbonds looked at each other, seeing the same thought in each other’s eyes.
Since revenge was impossible, then... let’s follow the master.
They slowly collected their last traces of power, gave up futile struggles, and prepared to embrace their final death.
However, just as Lazuli and Vera had given up...
"Buzz——!!"
An immense, ancient fluctuation, centered on Sally’s petite form, silently swept across the entire world!
No, it swept across the entire Alternate Space!
Time, at this moment...
Paused!
In the territories of the Human Race, falling snowflakes froze midair.
Every Human...
Whether strong or weak, whether Awakening Level or Totem Level...
All things on earth, whether alive or dead, regardless of strength...
Their actions, their thoughts, all fell into absolute stillness!
Even the formidable Demon God Valley...
His cruel smile, reaching hand, and the boiling demonic qi around him also froze as if a pause button was pressed, completely solidified at that moment!
His scarlet eyes still retained the arrogance of certainty, yet they were also forcibly frozen.
He became a part of this frozen space-time, unable to think, unable to perceive.
The entire Alternate Space transformed into an absolute stillness, a vast and grand tableau.
Only Sally was the sole flowing existence within this tableau.
At this moment, Sally floated in mid-air, her petite body unbelievably majestic.
Her eyes transformed into two slowly rotating pale golden clocks.
Wisps of semi-transparent, ancient and desolate aura shadows emerged from her body, hanging about her.
These varied shadow forms possessed the same time law aura as Sally; they were...
The collective will remnants of the Chronospirit Clan, long lost in the river of history!
The leading shadow was an elder garbed in an ancient robe, with a kind face but tinged with endless fatigue and majesty.
He floated to Sally’s front slowly, his profound gaze full of affection.
"Child..."
The elder’s voice was ethereal, directly echoing within Sally’s consciousness.
"You are the last blood of the Chronospirit Clan, and also... the sole hope."
Amid Sally’s bewildered gaze, the elder slowly raised an illusory hand, lightly covering her head.
"Buzz——!"
A vast stream of information, mixed with the last legacy of the Chronospirit Clan, surged into Sally’s soul depth!
Fragmented images flickered:
A river crossing the void, formed by countless timelines, appeared!
The Chronospirit Clan guarded its stability generation after generation.
It was their mission and their honor.
However, the scene suddenly shifted!
Endless demonic qi emerged from void fissures, polluting the tributaries of time rivers, causing channel chaos, temporal collapse!
The Chronospirit Clan, fighting as a whole, ultimately fell to the Abyss’s erosion, leading to near-total clan extinction.
Even the core maintaining the clan’s existence, the "Time Spirit Divine Pattern", shattered during the catastrophe, scattered in the chaotic depths of Voranthos, whereabouts unknown.
"Guarding Voranthos is our clan’s mission."
"But now Voranthos is broken, Divine Pattern scattered..."
"Child, being the last existence of the Chronospirit Clan, you must return everything to normal."
"This is your mission and your responsibility!"
"But my clan’s remaining strength, can only support opening Voranthos three times!"
"If these three chances fail to find the Time Spirit Divine Pattern, then the entire world..."
The elder’s shadow began to blur, he didn’t continue, but instead looked deeply at Sally.
Gradually, the elder’s shadow began to dissipate, transforming into the purest golden Origin Power, flowing into Sally’s body.
Soon followed by countless Chronospirit Clan shadows, turning into streaks of light, merging into Sally!
"BOOM——!!!"
With the entire Chronospirit Clan’s power merging, every time law in Alternate Space was forcibly activated, madly converging towards Sally!
A vague but endless ancient and vast river shadow gradually appeared in the static space-time!
In the river, countless worlds’ births and deaths, countless life trajectories were visible!
This was the projection of Voranthos!
Sally closed her eyes tightly, fully absorbing the power emerging within her body.
Her aura soared madly at an unprecedented speed, her mastery of Time Law underwent a qualitative leap!
When the last strength of the Chronospirit Clan fully merged, when the projection of Voranthos stabilized at that moment...
Sally, slowly opened her eyes.
...
