After preparing for transmigration, Xia Yuan, a top player of storyline mages in his previous life, transmigrated into an NPC, and was even the fourth son of the newly born Duke of the Empire!
<...Chapter 210 The Moment of Reality (Part 2)
"There, every time I pass through the door and step into the moon's house, my body will remain outside the door--"
Holding the scepter high, the high priest's face suddenly showed fanaticism, and his hoarse voice suddenly had a strange vibration frequency.
The strange phosphorescence bloomed like a flower, with the pitch-black altar where the high priest was located as the pistil, and three small altars with offerings placed on them as petals. Along the lines and grooves engraved on the cave floor, the entire cave was completely lit up.
On the ancient rock cave wall, the empty gully was gradually filled with light, presenting a huge ritual array with a radius of nearly a thousand meters! Moreover, if there was a magician here, he would be able to clearly see that this was only the core part of some huge secret ritual array!
"l'a~y'a~"
Inside the cave, the pagans in ragged robes suddenly began to chant in unison, the syllables were monotonous but extremely loud.
Spots of phosphorescent light rose from the dimly-lit grooves on the ground and flitted between the believers' tattered robes, like pale green fireflies crawling out of corpses.
The rising phosphorescence cast dancing dark shadows between the figures, making the entire ceremony scene look terrifying and evil.
As the ritual proceeds, a certain power is exerted upon the sacrifices on three small altars.
This caused their sleeping faces to twist in pain. At the same time, the essence of the eighth-order power began to overflow continuously, adding a touch of brilliance to the light of the altar.
"In that faraway place where the sun has been forgotten, the hidden pilgrim shines brighter than ever before—"
The green phosphorescence in the cave began to grow stronger and began to extend far away along the grooves connected to the cave wall.
On the ancient relief cliffs of the island, the eyes of the huge stone sculptures suddenly lit up; deep in the ruins of the wasteland, inscriptions appeared on the surface of the collapsed altar; at the bottom of the temple covered by jungle vines, the nameless statue was shrouded in dim light...
The branch nodes of the arcane magic array, which had been hidden and silent until now, were all activated and immersed in the pale green evil light.
"Use my soul as a candle, and my body as a cocoon and eggshell."
As the chanting became louder and louder, the diamond-shaped black stone inlaid on the top of the scepter in the high priest's raised hand suddenly lit up with an enchanting and psychedelic purple light.
Although the color is similar to the moonlight of the Purple Moon, its brightness is not soft, but extremely dazzling, like a bright moonlight torch.
"Butterflies emerge from their cocoons, larvae emerge from their eggs, flames light up from candles—"
"l'a~y'a~ l'a~y'a~"
Under the purple light of the high priest's scepter, the chanting of the densely packed pagans in the cave became more and more rapid.
And on their bodies, the tattered dark green robes that gradually began to move without wind suddenly began to emit a pale phosphorescent light like the walls of the cave.
But if you look closely, you can find that this light actually comes from deep inside their bodies -
"When the truth comes back to this world, the primordial moon will take us home!"
At the end of the ritual prayer, the high priest raised his hands high.
Then, with a heavy gesture as if he was pulling a world, he suddenly slammed the purple moon-like scepter in his hand down onto the surface of the altar!
"Inside and outside are interchangeable, appearance and inside are interchangeable, this is common sense from ancient times to the present—"
When the bottom of the scepter touched the altar, the entire island suddenly fell silent! The endless thunder disappeared, and the rainstorm that was like a wall of fog froze in the air. The crystal raindrops and the brilliance of lightning were still in the dark night.
The next moment, the gray-white fog that had existed since ancient times and covered the island for millions of years appeared.
Suddenly dispersed——
In the ancient mountains of the island, strangely shaped alien monsters looked up at the sky in horror. Their bodies also began to glow with a pale green phosphorescence.
And reflected in their countless pairs of strange eyes was a huge, round, evil purple full moon without a trace of shadow!
At the same time, the extremely rich and enchanting purple moonlight instantly enveloped the entire island completely - ... At this time, Avis and the other two had arrived at the island's dock.
Sensing unusual signs, the spiritual senses of the three people, including Evan, have begun to warn them violently.
At the moment the rainstorm stopped, there was an illusory sound, like thunder that lingered in the hearts of the three people.
The next moment, the thick fog dissipated, and dark stars and the huge purple full moon suddenly appeared in front of Avis.
“What… is that?!”
When they saw the purple full moon, Avis and Joem lowered their heads instantly. Only Evan opened his mouth and stared at the full moon in the sky in a daze.
Previously, while investigating the history of Lavanlais, Evan had learned that the island's mist was almost as old as the island itself.
That was why he was particularly shocked when he saw the fog in the sky over the island dissipate.
Without him noticing, his body suddenly emitted a faint pale green phosphorescent light.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Joem immediately took action and directly sealed Evan's five senses as he was still staring blankly at the moon.
At the same time, Avis moved a little closer and used the power of the old secret scriptures to remove the strange phosphorescent state from Evan's body.
Earlier, when the evil purple moon suddenly appeared in the sky, the Secret Book of the Old Days hanging around his waist once again glowed faintly, spontaneously absorbing the corrosive power around Avis.
"What happened to me just now...?"
As the phosphorescence on his body went out again, Evan's mental state suddenly became very tired, as if he had just finished a marathon.
Evan looked at Avis weakly and shook his head dizzily.
"Brother Evan, please don't look at it!"
After he came to his senses, Avis reminded him.
"Also, with this level of change...we'd better leave the island right now!"
Looking at the dramatic changes in the sky of the island and the strange erosion in the purple moonlight, the three of them immediately left the island and entered the sea to temporarily avoid this mutation.
When they were some distance away from the island, the corrosive moonlight did lessen, but the endless death fog from the depths of the misty sea began to gradually envelope them.
This fog contains a strange chaotic magic, which is enough to confuse the senses of professionals. Even Joem, who is at the eighth level, cannot observe the distance through his mental power in this fog.
But the most important thing is that the depths shrouded by fog are where those deep-sea monsters with unfathomable strength appear.
Therefore, even if Jom was there, Avis did not dare to rashly enter the fog area.
"Sir Joum, can you find a way to find that black ship?"
Standing at the boundary between the distant sea fog and the island space, Avis looked towards Joem.
Fill it up!
