Chapter 621: 285: Massacre and Sweeping Through the Ruins_3
At that moment, black-purple fog billowed from the body of the void creature, turning into swathes of Purple Killing Energy that coiled around Balderas, making him appear even more fierce.
With heavy steps crushing the earth, Balderas marched towards the depths of the ruins like a real giant beast. All the monsters he encountered along the way were slapped to death by his palm.
In such a place where the energy of Heaven and Earth was so thin that it could not be stirred, manifesting the Beast King battle body and moving purely through physical action became more convenient for them.
Meanwhile, in another place, Eddy Keller stood proudly atop a hundred-meter-tall tree, only its dead trunk remaining, overlooking his surroundings and arrogantly saying.
“You void creatures polluted by the void, still daring to roar at the sight of this genius, you truly do not know whether to live or die.”
“Now kneel down and beg for mercy. If this genius is in a good mood, perhaps I might spare your lives.”
In this forest of bare black tree trunks, a pack of void creatures resembling wolves, with shoulders about a dozen meters high and bodies around twenty meters long, covered in bone spurs, encircled him.
As Eddy Keller spoke, the response was a series of violent roars. Following that, powerful strength burst forth from these void creatures, their mouths flickering with light.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A meter-thick black Breath tore through the forest, destroying everything. Tree trunks several meters thick and more than ten meters long exploded, submerging Eddy Keller a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye.
“To think you dare attack this genius, you’re courting death.”
Within the black explosion of firelight, a beam of white brilliance shone, turning into a white Divine Dragon over forty meters long that lightning-fast pierced through all the polluted bone wolves.
In the face of the white Divine Dragon that Eddy Keller’s true martial arts phantom had become, the sixth-level polluted bone wolves’ heads exploded one by one, killed off in the blink of an eye, as easily as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
Roar! The Divine Dragon roared, and its brilliance flickered, revealing Eddy Keller’s figure.
Standing atop the largest corpse of the polluted bone wolves, Eddy Keller stood with his hands behind his back, his white clothes fluttering, vainly praising himself: “It’s no wonder I am who I am, so powerful, life really is as lonely as snow.”
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The shoulders of the Mecha, standing over forty meters tall, opened up, launching high-explosive energy missiles that covered the stone architecture ahead in their range, the intense explosions nearly lighting up the sky, the ground shaking.
With just one volley, the buildings and ruins ahead were leveled, including the dozens of polluted monsters lurking inside.
Inside the Mecha, Gabriella sat in the cockpit wearing a red combat suit, looking at the slowly dispersing smoke and dust and the gathering black and purple killing energy in front with a cold gaze.
Elsewhere, over a hundred kilometers deep into the ruins, Jane Aiken clad in Green Armor moved between the ruins of what resembled a small ancient town.
Around her, four battle swords, two meters long, danced in the air, their red, black, blue, and purple sword lights breathing in and out, surrounded by sharp Sword Intent.
Under the four nearly fully realized Sword Intents, the four battle swords intertwined like flying swords, forming a sword net that minced all oncoming humanoid monsters.
Even two Late Sixth Heavenly Stage warriors in bronze armor were no match for the sweeping sword lights and were slain in moments along with all other polluted monsters.
Standing amidst the small town ruins, the girl enveloped in swirling sword lights, cut a figure akin to the legendary Sword Immortals who wielded flying swords—unrestrained and powerful.
This was the ultimate move that Jane Aiken had cultivated after her breakthrough to the Sixth Heavenly Stage and the blazing of her True Power into flames.
The Transcendent Battleswords carried Sword Intent, enhancing their power and lethality. Powered by True Power infused with Spiritual Will, they created a twenty-meter radius domain of flying swords.
Within this domain, the four flying swords moved unimpeded, as swift as lightning, their power truly astonishing.
At this moment, battles erupted all over the Void Continent. The geniuses of the Human Clan, using the Oasis as a center, ventured into the Doomsday Ruins in all directions.
In front of these geniuses, whose battle strength far exceeded their realms, hordes of polluted monsters were being continuously slain, and at the same time… there were also human deaths.
Boom!
Under the claw of a Giant Beast resembling a Western Dragon, over 40 meters in length with black gold scales, the energy defense of the 20-meter-tall Mecha shattered, and its structure exploded.
“No!”
…
Outside, at the edge of the Void Rift, two king-level figures stood tall in the sky, in front of them a ten-meter-wide Eye of Heaven slowly rotated, continuously reflecting the silhouettes of various individuals.
Marcellus Larry looked at two broken bubbles and sighed lightly, “Two dead so quickly.”
Lori Joyner, with her hands clasped behind her back, responded indifferently, “That’s normal; they were entering the ruins for exploration, not for leisure. Casualties are to be expected.”
“Besides, the danger in the ruins is quite low now. Think back to when we first entered—the Innate Awakened Ones had over a dozen casualties.”
“True,” Marcellus Larry said, his eyes filled with sentiment.
In the Dark Age, nearly all of the first capable of cultivation were geniuses of extraordinary talent, and there were dozens of Innate Awakened Ones, each of them powerful figures in their own right.
After the emergence of the ancient relics, most of the strong individuals under the age of twenty rushed in.
There were no ‘kings’, no Eye of Heaven; everyone who entered appeared in the Ruin Area, teeming with countless monsters, and many died unexpectedly.
It wasn’t until the First Councilor led everyone out of the ruins and into the Oasis that they began to reap rewards, and by the end of the relics, the high-end power of mankind burst forth.
At this moment, with a grave expression, Lori Joyner suddenly said, “Mr. Whitlock, pull up the Purple Killing Energy rankings and take a look.”
“They’ve only been in there for just over two hours; the rankings shouldn’t have changed much.”
As Marcellus Larry said this, he clicked on the Eye of Heaven. A ray of light shot from the eye, materializing into a ranking list encompassing everyone in the sky.
Numbers were jumping beside the names at the top of the list, while those like Justin Welan who had entered the Oasis were marked with a zero behind their names.
At that moment, the first place on the list was Gabriella, with 892 in Purple Killing Energy, and second place was Eddy Keller, with 815.
“That Jack Clark is only in the eighties with 412 points?” Lori Joyner was somewhat surprised.
Marcellus Larry was also somewhat surprised, “Indeed, that lad, with his strength and talent, should be in the top five on this list. He shouldn’t have so few points.”
As he spoke, Marcellus Larry clicked again on the massive eyeball, causing numerous tiny scenes to swirl about, bringing into view Jack Clark from a high-altitude perspective.
With Sub-eye Positioning, using this relic core from the Inheritance Continent, they could see from the outside what was happening on the inside.
However, the rules of the Inheritance Continent only allow geniuses under the age of twenty to enter. If a king tried to forcibly descend, it would trigger a Void tide that would prematurely push away the Inheritance Continent.
The moment Jack Clark’s figure appeared, both Lori Joyner and Marcellus Larry were taken aback.
“What is he doing?”
In the great eye above, a streak of golden light moved across the land, circling the edge of the ruins centered around the Oasis, blasting one ‘ordinary’ polluted monster after another.
Lori Joyner was a bit puzzled, “Doesn’t this Jack Clark realize that the higher the level of the Void creatures he kills, the thicker the Purple Killing Energy he’ll receive?”
“…Perhaps,” Marcellus Larry was also unsure.
In the following hours, under the watchful gazes of the two kings, Jack Clark blazed like a golden ray across thousands of kilometers, making a full circuit around the Oasis before finally stopping.
At this time, the light in the sky also dimmed down.
