Chapter 333: God King Statue!
Deep within the dense forest, two masked figures moved rapidly, their afterimages distorting the flowing mist as fallen red leaves fluttered to the ground.
As the K-Masked Man grumbled, the Q-Masked Man suddenly stopped and looked up.
“Sensed it? The flow of this mist has quickened.”
The Q-Masked Man’s mask tilted, her gaze turning west. “Let’s move in that direction.”
After Miss Mu’s reminder, Xia Feng also sensed something was not right. He turned his head and said in a deep voice, “Let’s go and see.”
These past few days, he and Mu Qingtong had been wandering on the island. They had initially thought that with Miss Mu’s special ability, they could continuously hunt Crying Witches.
However, they hadn’t expected to encounter only 5 Crying Witches after searching for a full eight days. After easily exterminating them, they obtained 4 Golden Obsidian and 1 Fire Obsidian.
There was no Water Obsidian.
Still, their journey hadn’t been without gains. Judging by the continuous battle traces in the forest, a certain faction had been here before.
This faction also seemed capable of dealing with Crying Witches and had collected a large amount of Obsidian.
As Xia Feng was contemplating, the ‘Miss Jian Zhu’s Candlelight Guidance’ suddenly reacted violently, and he instantly sensed it.
A very strong Obsidian reaction appeared ahead.
This surprised him. The candlelight guidance had been reacting these past few days, but never this clearly.
He estimated that they had entered a certain proximity, which had further clarified the direction of guidance as Xia Feng continued to move forward with Mu Qingtong.
“Bang bang—” Just then, the Calamity Demon Heart suddenly beat rapidly. He looked up in confusion, “There’s a reaction from the Calamity Spirit Pearl? Interesting…”
“Miss Mu, come to my side. This will likely be my domain from now on.”
Outside the Water Curtain Cave.
Nearly a hundred Black Moon Knights were divided into three formation square teams. Their silver armor glittered, and their expressions were solemn as they knelt in unison and respectfully greeted, “Saintess.”
Jiang Qiue stood with her hands behind her back, bare feet on a high rock. Her green dress fluttered in the wind, and her eyes were closed, her demeanor ethereal.
She slowly opened her beautiful eyes. Yuji Pao quickly stepped forward and said in a deep voice, “Saintess, the Calamity Dissipation Formation is ready.”
The woman in the green dress nodded. “Mm, let’s begin.”
The so-called Calamity Dissipation Formation actually referred to a spirit particle formation created by the cooperation of the Evil Removal Spirit Robe, which resisted Calamity Force Erosion, and some special spirit artifacts.
It could forcibly break through the Calamity Force Waterfall in front of the Water Curtain Cave.
For example, one of the knights had a spirit artifact called the “Calamity Force Magnet,” which could actively attract Calamity Force to itself, thus preventing its owner from being eroded by the Calamity Force.
Of course, if this spirit artifact absorbed too much Calamity Force, it would be easily damaged and rendered unusable.
Another example was a spirit artifact called “Chitin Water,” which could actively absorb Calamity Force and convert part of its components into Chitin Water using its ability. Enemies hit by Chitin Water would experience memory loss.
Of course, the spirit master using this spirit artifact would also suffer from a drastic drop in reason due to actively absorbing Calamity Force, resulting in severe side effects.
However, despite the obvious side effects, owners of such abilities were highly sought after on the “Calamity Battlefield” and could be life-saving at critical moments.
The Black Moon Holy See had put a great deal of effort into coming to Witch Island this time, specifically gathering these spirit artifact owners who could influence Calamity Force.
All for the sake of obtaining the Witch’s Key!
With these spirit artifacts and the Evil Removal Spirit Robe, fully empowering Jiang Qiue alone, she could be escorted through the Calamity Force Waterfall and enter the Water Curtain Cave.
“Whoosh—” Just then, a strong wind sounded, and everyone looked up abruptly.
Yuji Pao mused, “Teacher, your guess was indeed correct. This purple mist has actually accelerated!”
The area within five hundred meters around the Water Curtain Cave was originally a safe zone, but now the red mist from all directions was moving hundreds of times faster, visibly closing in on the surroundings.
However, the Black Moon Holy See members were not flustered, as the number of Crying Witches in the vicinity was not large.
Furthermore, they had the “A-Class Spirit Robe: God King Statue” as a safeguard, and they were well-prepared.
“Hmm? Someone has broken in?” Yuji Pao suddenly sensed something. The corners of his lips curled as he looked back, a bloodthirsty glint flashing in his eyes.
To be honest, he wasn’t afraid of no enemies appearing; he was afraid of enemies not appearing.
If there were no foolish suicidal individuals to enter the formation, wouldn’t all his arrangements be in vain?
“Teacher, you focus on breaking through the Calamity Force Waterfall. I’ll go deal with them.”
The woman in the green dress nodded faintly, took a step, and moved towards the Water Curtain Cave.
!
Yuji Pao then approached the sea of mist.
In front of the purple mist, a formation of knights was arrayed. At the foremost were two Papal Knights clad in black and gold armor, possessing the powerful strength of the True Martial Realm.
Even among those in the same True Martial Realm, there were significant differences in strength. One standard of measurement was the number of A-class Spirit Robes.
Most True Martial Realm experts would only have one A-class Spirit Robe, but a small portion of True Martial Realm powerhouses with the potential to become Venerables would use two A-class Spirit Robes.
This was also why some people further divided the True Martial Realm into the True Martial First Realm and the True Martial Second Realm, followed by the Venerable Realm.
Additionally, some people divided the True Martial Realm into several stages based on the intensity of their spirit pressure.
However, spirit pressure was difficult to precisely quantify the comprehensive strength of a spirit master, whereas the number of A-class Spirit Robes could.
True Martial Realm experts who used two A-class Spirit Robes were undoubtedly stronger than those who used a single A-class Spirit Robe in all aspects. As for how much stronger, it depended on the coordination and counteraction between the various abilities of the spirit masters involved.
The Black Moon Holy See had dispatched two Papal Knights and one Grand Priest, meaning three True Martial Realm experts.
The two Papal Knights were in the True Martial First Realm, and they were the ones present.
The Grand Priest, named Xu Meng’en, was currently commanding the entire situation from the Black Moon fleet outside the island. He was in the True Martial Second Realm.
Yuji Pao performed a salute and asked in a deep, confused voice, “Can you two lords detect the identity of the intruders?”
One Papal Knight was nearly two meters tall, with a dark and rugged face.
He didn’t turn around, merely stood with his hands behind his back, looking up. A mirror-like shimmering water-blue light flashed in his eye sockets, and he frowned:
“Hmm? They don’t seem to be Burning Heaven Evil Disciples, but two Black Robe Masked Men, K and Q. Strange, why aren’t they affected by the Calamity Force at all?”
Masked Men? Yuji Pao’s expression was slightly taken aback. These two fools were still alive?
This was rather interesting. Logically, they shouldn’t have been able to escape after being surrounded by so many Crying Witches.
It seemed these two masked men possessed treasures, perhaps some rare God Relics? Yuji Pao’s eyes lit up with excitement as he speculated.
He currently possessed a spirit paper for an A-class Spirit Robe, but he had been studying it for a long time without success. Therefore, instead of stubbornly trying to master an A-class Spirit Robe, it would be more effective to collect powerful God Relics to improve his strength.
While contemplating, he summoned the Excitation Ring and activated his vocal cords.
Immediately, his vocal cords entered an excited state, undergoing a mutation.
