Chapter 218 The Myth Reappears
"Ants...you did a great job!"
In the sky, the high priest looked in vain at the scene of the darkness disappearing inside the door, and his originally flustered mood calmed down.
Sensing that the space blockade of the domain was about to be completely broken, he clenched the black stone scepter in his hand and looked coldly in the direction of Avis. A raging rage finally rose in his dead eyes.
"A thousand years! I have waited for this moment for a thousand years! But you ignorant ants have ruined everything!!"
"In that case, why don't you stay here too!"
Along with the faint words, the high priest raised the scepter in his hand and swung it suddenly towards the sky. A dazzling purple light suddenly flashed on the strange diamond-shaped black stone surface of the scepter.
As the light came on, the island in the distance suddenly underwent drastic changes.
A bright, pale green phosphorescent light, like a burning fire, suddenly rose from the surface of the island, illuminating the night sky in the distance which had returned to darkness.
In the sacrificial cave beneath the islands and mountains, the green phosphorescent light on the Holy Grail on top of the black altar suddenly became much brighter, and the indescribable liquid in the cup began to burn violently! "l'a——y'a——"
Inside the cave, many Moon-Calling followers in ragged robes chanted in unison, and their bodies, emitting a pale green phosphorescent glow, suddenly began to disintegrate and completely burn up.
On the three small altars, the bodies of the unconscious sacrifices also began to glow with phosphorescence. The speed at which their power essence was lost suddenly increased significantly, and their faces began to gradually age.
At this moment, the mutated monsters in the mountains of the island, as well as the residents of Lavanlais whose strength was below level five, were "burned up" in an instant, and turned into pale green phosphorescent dust that floated away.
As this change occurred, an incomparably huge alien force suddenly rose up and merged into the body of the high priest, causing his aura to begin to rise infinitely.
Buzz——
At the same time, the space beside Anvis was distorted, and the figure of Duke Carrot in a black and gold suit appeared there.
"Father!"
"Your Excellency the Duke!"
Seeing Carrot's figure, the three of them hurriedly saluted and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Um."
In response to the three people's salute, Duke Carrot simply nodded calmly.
Then, he raised his right hand, pointing his palm towards the high priest in the sky who was surrounded by powerful alien forces.
A frosty white cold current appeared out of nowhere, bringing with it crystal ice spots and terrifying power of rules, enveloping the high priest in mid-air.
But this time, unlike the cold current that enveloped the purple moon, the cold current containing the power of rules did not directly touch the high priest, but instead produced a violent confrontation with the alien forces around him.
By completely burning the 'holy object' and the irreversible act of sacrificing everything on the island, the high priest briefly gained enough power to rival the Duke.
The frost on the surface of the 'Silver Moon' in the sky was once again broken away by this endless stream of alien power, returning to its original rich purple color.
Frowning at the scene, the Duke turned his gaze to the island in the distance that provided power to the high priest, but in the end he did not take any action.
In his perception, this place has completely turned into an independent space. Although it can be seen, if the ritual node in the space, that is, the high priest, is not destroyed, no attack can really reach the island.
"The power of rules?"
High in the sky, the aura of the high priest has reached a new peak.
At this moment, he glanced at the extremely cold power of rules around him, and suddenly smiled strangely.
"Stay forever!"
Ignoring the Duke's attack, he raised his scepter and swung it down violently.
Then, the purple moon in the sky, which was emitting strong fluctuations of alien power, suddenly began to sink again.
Unlike the previous slow descent, this time, the purple moon descended at an astonishingly fast speed!
Looking at the horrifying scene in the sky, Duke Carrot couldn't help but frown slightly.
That purple moon was not a projection of the high priest's power, but the true incarnation of divine power. At this moment, it was smashed down by the high priest like a stone, and even he was unwilling to take on its power.
The crystal clear ice condensed and formed a huge ice crystal pyramid.
Carlot controlled the pyramid with his mind and threw it towards Zi Yue, trying to forcibly destroy it in mid-air.
However, before the pyramid collided with the purple moon, something strange happened again.
At this critical moment, the constant flow of alien power from the high priest suddenly stopped! Without the guidance of this power again, the coming of Purple Moon suddenly became somewhat powerless.
At the same time, the surrounding light purple moonlight area suddenly flashed, and then completely shattered and disappeared.
"!?"
A look of deep astonishment appeared on the high priest's face beneath his hood.
He looked towards the direction of the island with some disbelief, and then he saw the astonishing scene.
Boom boom boom——
Along with a terrifying earth-shaking roar, clouds of hot, thick black smoke erupted violently from the tops of more than a dozen peaks in the middle section of the mountains.
The dark red volcanic bomb was thrown high into the sky, and then fell rapidly, leaving thousands of fiery red scratches, cutting the dark night into pieces.
Then, bright red magma gushed out, swallowing up large areas of land on the islands and mountains. The night sky was once again covered by thick smoke, and it looked gloomy in this terrifying disaster scene.
The deepest part of the island's mountains is actually a group of dormant volcanoes, and now, they suddenly erupted! Staring at the scene happening on the island at the same time, Avis suddenly remembered the myth on the island.
'When people came to this island, the noise awakened the ancient gods sleeping in the depths of the wasteland.
He opened his eyes, and the earth parted, and huge mountains emerged from the earth. Terrible flames came out of the mountains, bringing abundant darkness and fruit.
To this day, that terrifying god still sleeps deep in the ancient mountains.'
Until now, this scene from the ancient myth reappeared before him.
The terrain deep in the mountains changed in this terrifying eruption. Lava filled the canyons and gullies, turning into a slow-flowing dark red lava river. The rich volcanic ash brought abundant nutrients, causing plants to grow unconsciously.
The erupting volcano directly destroyed the key core node of the ritual array deep in the mountains of the island, as well as several other nodes including the stone walls.
Whether it was the altar, the holy grail, or the three eighth-level professionals who served as sacrifices, they were all submerged in the rolling lava.
However, due to the power of the Holy Grail, these ordinary lava without magic power could not cause any damage to the Holy Grail, nor could they melt the bodies of the three eighth-level beings.
