Chapter 806: Light Ruins
Ms. Mi, covered by a veil of pure white, walked out first, smiling gently. “The Summon Card was initiated by me. I presume everyone can guess the purpose.”
Everyone silently watched the Ghost Bride stroll to the center.
“The prerequisite for exposing the Red King is the Red King Exposure Card.”
Angel Right Wing, appearing to have just come from a great battle, with bloodstains on the corner of his lips, said indifferently, “And to obtain information about the Red King Exposure Card’s location, someone needs to be the first to reach 150 Ash Stones. Do you have them?”
“I don’t, of course, but esteemed Excellencies, if we join forces, won’t we have them?”
Ms. Mi’s lips curved slightly. “To be frank, I already have 118 Ash Stones in my possession.”
“Therefore, as long as everyone gives me 4 more, totaling 150, we will naturally obtain the location information for the Exposure Card.”
“Rest assured, I will return the Ash Stones to you once I have the information. After all, this killing game is only in its mid-stage. I wouldn’t offend eight enemies at once for these thirty-odd Ash Stones.”
“If I break my promise, you can all join forces to hunt me down.”
After hearing this, the eight people fell silent and contemplated for a moment. The Guardian Sage of the Just Holy See, Zong Yue, was the first to throw out four Ash Stones.
Ms. Mi accepted them casually and smiled gently, “Sage, you are indeed decisive.”
Immediately following, the Black Moon Pope, Tu Lin, and Jin Shiyin expressionlessly threw out their four Ash Stones.
The current situation basically indicated that whoever disagreed with this plan was the Red King, or at least, would be tagged as highly suspected of being the Red King.
Even if they weren’t the Red King, no one wanted to be suspected and falsely accused of being the Red King, as it would be very troublesome.
This was especially true for Xia Feng, who, at the end of the first round settlement, had already been outwardly suspected of being the Red King, although most people didn’t truly believe he was.
Huang Zhaoyue, Xia Feng, Jin Yangtian, and Uphiel also threw out their Ash Stones simultaneously.
Ms. Mi skillfully collected them in an instant.
Information appeared in everyone’s minds.
[Current round is the second round. A player has successfully gathered 150 Ash Stones first! Red King Exposure Card location revealed—]
Xia Feng’s heart skipped a beat. The location of the card was exactly the same as the Authority Fragment!
Everyone seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.
The card was not far from them, at the highest point of this sea of lightning.
Ms. Mi did not go mad and flee with the goods. Instead, she faithfully returned the Ash Stones to everyone.
Before long, everyone ascended to the central area above the sea of lightning. Beneath them was a sea of thunder and plasma, and above them, only darkness.
In the center of this lightning sea, there was a ball of lightning constructed from pure thunder, about ten cubic meters in size, floating serenely.
Two items suspended in the center of the spherical lightning immediately captured everyone’s attention.
A scarlet card, and a clear red light cluster.
Within the light cluster, divine runes flowed like a star river.
Clearly, these were the Red King Exposure Card and the Gui Hua Authority Fragment.
“…” Xia Feng’s eyes twitched. How unlucky. Why couldn’t these two items be placed separately?
Moreover, they were exposed directly, not existing in the form of Ash Land.
However, just as he was thinking this, he sensed something was not right.
The spherical lightning did not appear to be ordinary electric current, but a strange, incomprehensible formation, and its aura felt inexplicably familiar to Xia Feng.
“This is the power of the Light Dragon King’s Authority, the Light Ruins.”
Huang Zhaoyue said coldly, “Once this formation is activated, it will last for a hundred thousand years without dissipating, capable of eternally imprisoning any living or non-living being in the [Light Ruins World]. The Light Ruins World is a one-way entrance, and beings within are immortal, subject to endless punishment by the void. It was originally a method for the Light Dragon King to discipline his subordinates.”
“This world formation requires even Heavenly God-tier existences to spend some effort to break. This is because it is almost impossible to break with brute force; it can only be achieved through analysis and calculation, by relying on talent and comprehension.”
After hearing her explanation, everyone nodded thoughtfully.
Jin Shiyin frowned and tutted, “Even so, this formation has many spirit particle structures that we at this level haven’t touched. It’s impossible to break it in a short time, right? I estimate even Pillar State Huang Ye would have to think twice.”
From a distance, Tu Lin, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, his voice muffled, “Looking at the state of this world formation, its effectiveness has been greatly reduced over time, now less than one-tenth of its original power. The density of spirit particle structures has naturally also dropped significantly.”
He possessed the God Relic of the Light Dragon King, Guang Yuan. Although his attempt to ambush Huang Zhaoyue half a month ago had failed, it had also made him more familiar with the Light Dragon King’s power.
He had roughly estimated the state of the spherical lightning.
After listening to Tu Lin’s analysis, everyone nodded, gaining confidence.
“If that’s the case, then if we work together, it’s not impossible to break the formation.”
The Black Moon Pope also spoke up uncharacteristically, scanning his surroundings, his voice old and deep, “All of you are the Children of Heaven of your respective eras. Breaking this formation within a month shouldn’t be difficult, right?”
“Tsk tsk, old Pope, you should be asking Jin Yangtian and Huang Zhaoyue about that,” Jin Shiyin chuckled. “These two are the only two publicly recognized God-tier geniuses present. If they are unwilling to break the formation, our difficulty level will double.”
Jin Yangtian stood with his hands behind his back, his hawk-like eyes indifferent. He ignored Jin Shiyin and casually said, “Less than a month. Ten days is enough.”
Xia Feng stood in the shadows, quietly observing everyone’s state. Everyone was very willing and proactive in wanting to break the formation, showing no hesitation whatsoever, making it impossible to guess who the Red King was.
They can really hide, these guys.
However, seeing these geniuses discussing so intensely made Xia Feng feel somewhat helpless.
If he had found this place alone, without Miss Mu by his side, it would have been almost impossible to break the formation, let alone obtain the Authority Fragment within.
But the Light Ruins World… this thing, like Guang Yuan, was a divine power created by the Light Dragon King after receiving the Pale Blessing.
Therefore… it could also be easily shattered by his Pale Bloodline!
There was no need for all this trouble.
Ten days to break the formation?
Ten days my foot! Xia Feng sighed inwardly, but since everyone was present, he could only go with the flow.
Fortunately, with the combined strength of these eight formidable geniuses, even if it was still inferior to Miss Mu, dealing with a Light Ruins World should be a piece of cake.
What puzzled Xia Feng was why the Authority Fragment was placed together with the Red King Exposure Card, and why it wasn’t sealed in the form of Ash Land, but sealed within the Light Ruins World?
After all, so far, item cards were either obtained during the settlement phase or from Ash Land; none had been exposed externally.
This is a bit strange, Xia Feng thought to himself as everyone agreed to break the formation.
Xia Feng looked up and met Huang Zhaoyue’s gaze.
“If you wish to break the formation immediately, I can act to lure these people away,” Huang Zhaoyue’s voice echoed softly and ethereally in Xia Feng’s mind, a telepathic message.
