<...Chapter 867 The Collapse of the Dark Pyramid
"Did it work?"
Sensing the changes in the Dark Pyramid, the marquis were overjoyed, and at the same time worked even harder to stop the attacking royal guardians. The ninth level of the Door in the Eye was responsible for maintaining the operation of the magic circle.
"Not yet. It will take about ten minutes before the seal is completely lifted."
After observing the changes in the dark pyramid, Gray Mist shook his head but gave an exact countdown.
At the same time, as the territories of the marquises and the royal guardians collided, the fluctuations of the power of rules that escaped made the dark red light flashing on the surface of the dark pyramid more and more rapid, like a hungry piranha that was constantly stimulated by the smell of blood.
The Royal Guardians, led by [Gray], and several ninth-order extreme beings expanded their own rule fields, forming a huge light gray spherical force field, trying to destroy the altar and prevent the seal from continuing to collapse.
The Marquis's side was equally unwilling to be outdone, and while opening their territory to resist this infiltration, they liberated their own ninth-order forms, transforming into huge blood-eyed Mosasaurs, crystal giants, etc., and frantically launched attacks on the royal guardians in the sky.
At the core battlefield where the two sides collided, space was twisted and divided like clay. The dream world and the material world overlapped and intertwined, melting into indescribable colors.
Landon and others who had just escaped were temporarily ignored by everyone.
"What should we do, Lord Dark Crow? We seem to be trapped now. Is there any secret technique that can help us get out of here?"
At this moment, Landon and his companions were hiding in the folded space created by their grandfather Dark Crow with secret magic, looking at the battle situation in the outside world with fear and trepidation, which was almost beyond their understanding.
As a former top powerhouse, Dark Crow's secret space is highly concealed, and even a ninth-level warrior cannot find it in a short time.
However, with the fierce fighting among many ninth-level warriors in the outside world, this space was also affected to a certain extent. The space barrier began to tremble slightly, which made everyone frightened.
"It's difficult. Your strength is still too weak compared to the ninth level. Even the aftermath of the power of rules is difficult to withstand."
Dark Crow was also troubled by the current predicament of the team. He did have a way to leave, but when escaping the encirclement, he would inevitably be affected by the aftermath of the power of rules scattered on the battlefield.
It doesn't matter to him, but it's a different matter if he brings a bunch of burdens with him.
Especially since there are still injured people in the current team. Lanny, who they just fought hard to rescue from the altar, was injured by the ritual dagger and is still in danger of death, not to mention withstanding the aftermath of the ninth-level battle.
"This is... Am I still alive?"
At this time, in Landon's arms, Lannie, who had just undergone emergency treatment and looked pale, finally opened her eyes weakly and woke up barely.
But when she looked through the one-way space barrier and saw the current situation outside, her first words surprised everyone.
"There's no way to escape... that seal... if they break it... the whole world will end..."
"What are you talking about, Lani? And what's with your hair color?"
Looking at Lannie's weak but persistent gaze, Landon scratched his hair in confusion, not understanding what was happening to her.
"After I fell into a coma, I don't know what happened, but a lot of information suddenly appeared in my memory, including the historical truth about the pyramid and the specific information about the things sealed inside."
Lannie shook her head slightly, a look of apology appearing on her pale face.
“I’m sorry, there is something I have been hiding from you all. My ancestors were actually the wandering descendants of Emperor Phoenix. I also inherited a part of the royal bloodline of the ancient magic empire.
In order to prevent this bloodline from bringing us disaster, I have been under the effects of the secret art of blood concealment since childhood.
This is also the reason why they captured me. They need my blood to lift the seal left by the great emperor.
The existence sealed in this dark pyramid is the culprit that caused the destruction of the ancient magic empire thousands of years ago! Once the seal is broken, the doomsday will come again! "
"What?!"
After hearing such shocking news, everyone was shocked and held their breath. Only Dark Crow looked thoughtful, as if he had recalled some vague fragments of memory.
"But, Lanny, even if that's true, what can we do? There is more than one ninth-rank crown on that altar."
After a while, Landon showed a wry smile on his face and spread his hands helplessly.
Faced with the current war situation, even if the ninth-level rebel leader Leo came in person, he still couldn't make any waves.
But just as he finished speaking, the battle situation outside changed again! It seemed that the stimulation of the aftermath of the ninth-order existence was too strong. In the dark pyramid beside, the already very unstable dark red light suddenly flashed rapidly for several times, and then suddenly became brighter, and a powerful invisible impact immediately acted on the entire pyramid.
On the surface of the pyramid, most of the original sealing rune text had disappeared, and this impact immediately became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Finally, the entire pyramid could no longer hold up, and the bricks on the surface peeled off layer by layer and turned into sand, and then floated away.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Boom, boom, boom…
A suppressed yet regular sound like a heartbeat resounded in the hearts of everyone present.
"Finally... has the seal been lifted?"
Sensing all this, the battle between the many ninth-rank warriors finally paused. The marquises were overjoyed and looked towards the direction of the pyramid. On the other hand, the royal guardians looked solemn, and no one knew what they were thinking.
"The end has come. Wake up from your long slumber! Assimilator of all things! Expounder of chaos! [Curtain of Truth] Onichaos!"
In front of the altar, Gray Mist, who was presiding over the ceremony, had never paid attention to the collision between the Marquis and the guardians. At this moment, he raised his arms high, his expression cold but mixed with a bit of fanaticism, letting his black and gold robe flutter.
As that forbidden name resounded in this world, everything on the field seemed to be suddenly paused.
At the same time, the huge pyramid completely turned into sand and disappeared at this moment, leaving behind a ball with a diameter of about half a football field. The ball emitted a dark red glow inside, as if it was made up of a sphere of glittering dust and mist.
But if you look closely, you will find that the 'fog' is actually composed of countless extremely tiny distorted geometric bodies with perfect mirror-like surfaces.
"That is... the source of danger that once destroyed the ancient magic empire?"
Staring at the strange fog ball in the field, Landon felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. That terrifying aura was still clearly discernible even through the void.
"It's over... It's all over! The seal has been completely lifted!"
Watching all this, Lanny's pretty face turned pale, and her expression was filled with deep despair.
