Senna is under a lot of pressure, not just ordinary pressure.
Thresh was killed instantly by a god-like warrior, and next to him was Li Lin, who was wearing a sealed armor with power comparable to that of a god.
In comparison, even Senna's ability to control the black mist seems "insignificant."
The King of Ruined King is very powerful. Her original plan was to unite various countries to fight against Ruined King.
If those foolish rulers do not agree, she will gather a new group of Light Sentinels herself and go to the Shadow Isles to fight against Viego.
We must never allow the black fog and the Ruined King to devour the entire world.
But now, Senna has changed her mind.
There was one who, though unknown, was clearly in his prime, without the help of a god-warrior who had fallen into Darkin. Coupled with Li Lin's armor that could release energy, it seemed unnecessary to seek help from mortal nations against the Ruined King...
There is no need for Senna to transform into black mist to carry them, as Li Lin and Aatrox both have their own flying abilities.
A group of three people went down into the ground through the crack opened up by Li Lin and arrived at a huge underground space.
"The Well of Ages is beneath the Glittering Tower. If we follow this tunnel, we'll find Viego's sleeping King's Sword... No, it should be called the Ruined King's Sword now."
Senna's knowledge comes entirely from the more determined souls in Thresh's lantern who haven't been tortured insane by him.
Among them, the one who knows the most about the Curse of Ruin, besides the senior Sentinel of Light, is the soul fragment of Insurd, the powerful soul who brought the "curse" to Senna when she was a child.
The reason why she has the ability to control the black fog is not only because she received teachings and saw through the nature of the black fog, but also because of Yin Suerde.
Insulde is long dead, but Viego's love for her has become distorted.
He regarded Yinsulde as his most precious possession and could not bear to see her go, so he placed her in the Fountain of Life.
For a moment, Yinsuld did come back, but his mind was soon consumed by the restless rage, and he raised the sword of kings and pierced Viego's chest.
This twisted love created the Curse of Ruin, leading to the tragedy of Shadow Isles. It also caused Insurd's soul to return to the realm of the living to be broken into several parts, attached to her relics, and drifted to all parts of the world with ocean currents.
Senna knew this, and Li Lin was also familiar with the details.
But now, Viego no longer has the chance to collect Insuld's soul fragments.
The three of them flew along the long corridor for a while and arrived at a huge stone archway opened by two triangular rune stones engraved with rune magic. Behind it was the former forbidden area of Fuguang Island - the secret chamber of the Fountain of Time where the water of life flowed.
The corrupted sludge lost its gravity and was held aloft by magic, but more sludge gathered in the mire beneath the pit.
The black fog was so strong that if an ordinary adult were here, they would be corroded by the curse of destruction in an instant and turned into dry bones.
In the center of the secret hall, a dark green double-handled sword was inserted into the stone platform.
Through "data-driven thinking", Li Lin learned the true name of the sword: Sword of Kings - Holiness.
But now, it has turned into "dilapidated" which is the exact opposite of "holiness". How ironic.
“The Ruined King is still asleep.” Senna was visibly relieved, but the tension in her tone was self-evident. “But he will wake up soon…”
Before he finished speaking, a confused voice filled with pain came from the sword: "Yinsulde... Yinsulde! I feel you, don't hide from me..."
“Damn it!” Senna’s breathing stagnated, and she quickly turned into black mist and prepared to leave. “I have Yinsuld’s soul in me, and the Ruined King has sensed her!”
Li Lin shook his head. "Don't be afraid even if he wakes up. Just stay with us and he won't be able to do anything to you."
The black mist quickly re-condensed into Senna's appearance. She had an expression of disbelief on her face, but after thinking it over, she still did not leave them.
This is the source of the Curse of Ruin and also the most central location. There are many powerful undead on the surface, and Senna cannot defeat them.
The chaotic thoughts were thrown out of her mind. When Senna noticed that Li Lin actually flew from his current position into a huge deep pit of several meters, she couldn't help but be shocked.
"Hey! Li Lin, wait..."
"Just be patient, mortal, and leave it to him."
Aatrox's trust in Li Lin eased Senna's tension a lot.
No matter how powerful the Ruined King becomes with the help of his weapons, he is still a mortal, even if he triggers the Curse of Ruined King and becomes a undead.
He had a god-like warrior by his side, and someone who could talk and laugh with the gods and was respected by them. He was a very extraordinary person, but he was just a Viego...
Senna comforted herself in her heart.
Li Lin activated the anti-gravity device and came to the Sword of the Ruined King. Viego's illusory spirit had gradually separated from the sword.
He wore a three-pointed crown that had turned dark green, and a king's light armor that had been torn from his chest, revealing his snow-white chest. His lower body was shrouded in ethereal black mist, proving that he had not yet fully awakened from his slumber.
"Insurd...Insurd..."
Viego kept muttering his queen's name, and the drowsiness in his eyes gradually cleared.
Li Lin shook his head, a trace of pity actually arose in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Insurde is dead. She longs to rest in peace and does not want to return to you, Viego vol Kara Haigali."
"No, impossible!" Viego instantly raised his head and stared at Li Lin, his cold eyes burning with dark green flames of anger.
He hated to hear anyone say anything bad about Insurd, even if it was his niece, Callista, whom he once treated as a sister.
Stimulated by this, the black mist in the hall rolled into clouds, almost comparable to the aura of a once ascended god-warrior, giving Senna on the platform a great shock.
Fortunately, with Aatrox protecting her, she was not caught in the black fog.
"What are you doing, Li Lin? Stop provoking Viego!"
Senna's voice gradually faded. Viego, who was already half awake, suddenly raised his head and growled angrily, "Give Insurd back to me!"
The body of the Ruined King was completely separated from the Sword of the Ruined King. His mind was already half awake. He grasped the giant sword beside him with his right hand and pulled it out of the stone platform.
For a moment, howling evil spirits floated out from the ceiling of the secret room, all of which flew from the surface at the call of Viego.
Under the interaction between the Fountain of Life and the Sword of Kings of Life and Death, Viego became the carrier of the black fog and had the power to drive these ruined forces.
However……
The armor on Li Lin's chest quickly unfolded, and a gray and white world rune that looked like a stone tablet and was filled with overwhelming life magic was floating in his palm.
"What the World Rune brought, the World Rune will take away."
