Chapter 659 Destruction
This was the first time Yun Zhao had fired his weapon since receiving it.
At such close range, with such a conspicuous target, it didn't matter how bad her marksmanship was.
There's no chance of missing.
The bullet whistled as it left the chamber, spinning and tearing through the air, heading straight for the huge, bloodshot red eye hanging atop the tower.
It was like being plunged into a viscous, invisible swamp of energy; the bullet sank in instantly upon touching the ripples of red light on the surface of the pupil.
Yun Zhao had tried to be clever during a shooting lesson.
— Attaching mental threads to the bullet head in an attempt to alter its trajectory and increase its hit rate.
She did it again this time.
The psycho-filaments attached to the warhead quickly took effect.
The instant she was engulfed by the enormous eye, her mind stirred, and the fluorescent light from the bullet scattered, entering the depths of the red eye's consciousness.
The two forces are mutually exclusive.
Red Eyes let out a roar that pierced straight to the soul.
The sound entered her mind, exploding deep within her consciousness, bringing waves of dizziness and nausea.
Yun Zhao gritted his teeth and, instead of backing down, pulled the trigger again!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three shots were fired in quick succession, arranged in a triangular pattern, at different parts of the red-eyed man.
But this time, Red Eyes was on guard. The red light in his pupils intensified, and the three bullets seemed to have hit an invisible barrier during their flight. They were instantly squeezed, deformed, and then disintegrated into fine metal powder, which fluttered down.
"You...are very good! Since that war, no one has been able to harm the great Shadow Clan..."
"Weak is weak, stop trying to make yourself look good."
After returning to his true self, Yun Zhao felt his patience was decreasing exponentially, especially when facing this intruder who claimed to be superior but was actually ugly and despicable.
At this moment, she didn't want to waste any more words; she just wanted to kill the guy in front of her.
The Great Bluebird continued to purify the black sphere.
The bluish-gold feathers emitted a pure and gentle radiance, washing over the black sphere, whose surface was still undulating violently, like rolling black waves, like waves crashing in waves.
The so-called core source became smaller and smaller under the constant infiltration of spiritual power.
The rolling motions on the surface gradually weakened, turning into a deathly, powerless wriggling.
Red Eyes clearly sensed the rapid weakening of the core source, and a power storm several times stronger than before erupted from Red Eyes' center!
However, Yun Zhao's spiritual power was tightly entwined around its core consciousness.
This makes it impossible for it to escape easily.
The spiritual energies of the two individuals, or rather, the individual's and the pupil's, collided and annihilated violently in the void, causing the cracks on the already crumbling black tower walls to spread even faster.
The tower shook violently, and large areas of the walls that were originally just cracks began to peel off, with rubble falling like rain.
The Azure Phoenix let out a high-pitched cry, and its body shone brightly.
The spreading silver light patterns suddenly contracted and slammed straight into the core of the black sphere, which had shrunk to the size of a basketball!
"Pop—"
It was so faint, like the sound of a bubble bursting.
After struggling for a long time, the black ball finally stopped all movement.
The deep black color on the surface quickly dissipated like the receding tide. Then, starting from the core, it shattered inch by inch, turning into countless tiny black specks of light, which were then completely purified and cleansed by the azure glow of the Azure Phoenix, disappearing without a trace.
The core source has been destroyed!
Red Eyes was furious.
This core source is a power hub that it has carefully cultivated over a long period of time.
Energy continuously sows seeds that erode this world, then constantly replicates and spreads dark matter.
The destruction of the core source at this moment is tantamount to the complete collapse of its invasion front. It not only loses its production base, but also cuts off the possibility of rapid invasion and seeding in the future.
It never imagined that its impulsive decision back then would bring it so much trouble later on.
The enormous red eyes looked at Yun Zhao with murderous intent and disappointment.
Since you've chosen to stand on the opposite side, from this moment on, you are no longer a protected person, but... a traitor and enemy who must be eliminated. Your father, don't blame me for... breaking my promise.
With the source destroyed, a devastating energy shockwave suddenly spread out across the entire space.
Yun Zhao raised his hand to block, and an invisible barrier blocked his way.
"Didn't you already breach the contract?"
The shockwave caused countless huge cracks to instantly pierce through the black tower from its base to its top, and the black material that made up the tower began to turn into dust.
The Black Tower began to collapse.
Yun Zhao slowly raised his eyes, his face showing no panic at being accused, nor any remorse, only a kind of cruel clarity and mockery.
"They can't even keep an eye on their own children, yet they have the nerve to call themselves a great race."
Her eyes held utter contempt and mockery, making the red-eyed man feel as if he were seeing his younger self.
The power of a guide to light should be gentle, pure, and warm, with healing and guiding qualities.
She doesn't seem to fit the bill at all.
Rather than being influenced by dark matter, it's more accurate to say it's inherited, inherited from that man...
The Black Tower collapsed completely.
The dark matter that forms the top of the tower vanishes silently beneath your feet, like weathered sand.
The feeling of weightlessness suddenly gripped her.
The real Black Tower is eternal and would not be in such a wretched state.
What collapsed was nothing more than a counterfeit that Red Eyes forcibly materialized in the gaps of the rules of this place by relying on the power of the core source.
During the descent, the red-eyed man cleared the mental threads from his consciousness and attacked again.
A suffocatingly malicious lockout.
More intense and more focused than ever before!
Red Eyes clearly wasn't going to give her any breathing room, his fury turning into extreme coldness.
Against the backdrop of collapse, the enormous pupils stared intently at the falling Yun Zhao. Deep within the pupils, the surging crimson had transformed into a pure, unfathomable darkness.
That darkness seemed to connect to the ultimate void of the universe, containing the will to devour and annihilate everything.
A beam of light without energy, an impact without substance.
In an instant, a vast and boundless spiritual power silently crossed the barrier of space and directly bombarded Yun Zhao's sea of consciousness!
In the past, faced with such a large-scale and malicious mental intrusion, Yun Zhao's mental barrier would have either collapsed instantly or been on the verge of collapse and would have been unable to hold on.
But after becoming a guide of light, her barrier of consciousness had already undergone a qualitative change.
All these shocks and contaminations, when they touched the light that formed the barrier of her consciousness, were like hitting an absolutely smooth mirror; most of them were refracted and slid away.
The few that managed to penetrate were quickly purified and neutralized by the ever-flowing power of light within the barrier.
It is impossible to truly shake her core consciousness.
Yun Zhao continued her descent, black dust brushing against her cheeks. Undeterred, she said lightly, "Is that all you've got?"
