Chapter 190: The Fall of the Black Knight
The Black Knight was heavily struck by the copper hammer of Fangri Rabbit and slammed into the ground, creating an unfathomably deep pit.
The surrounding ground was already shattered and scorched, turned into a patch of burnt earth covered in charred traces, with acrid, thick smoke rising from it.
His body lay quietly upon the scorched earth, surrounded by scattered, broken equipment, with two snapped longswords stuck upside down in the ground; the light in the pupils on the longswords had dimmed significantly.
In the Black Knight's eyes, a flicker of unyielding Xianghuo still shimmered in the depths, though his entire body was now unable to move.
Shocking burn marks appeared on his Abyss Magic Armor, and the skin beneath the armor was like deadwood licked by a raging fire—charred, twisted, and in some places, even exposing bright red flesh and white bone, a sight too painful to look at.
The eyes on the Abyss Magic Armor were darting around, bloodshot, as streams of black airflow surged toward him.
His limbs were twisted, and every weak breath was accompanied by the violent heaving of his chest, as if every breath were a form of extreme torture for him.
The surrounding air was permeated with the smell of burning and a faint scent of blood, creating a feeling of deep suffocation.
Fangri Rabbit knelt on one knee on the ground, gasping for white steam; she was now so exhausted that she could not move a single finger.
The cells within her body had begun to undergo autophagy, and she had to eat something immediately, or else she would fall into an eternal slumber.
Mid-air, the Star Sage, with eyes as deep and dark as brilliant stars, looked at Ye Bai with profound meaning.
"He has the same talent as me, doesn't he?"
The Star Sage asked suddenly; she saw President Zhang glaring at her with a face full of rage, and the Star Sage smiled.
"I already know the answer."
"So that's how it is."
After saying this, the Star Sage transformed directly into brilliant starlight and vanished before their eyes.
President Zhang's expression was uncertain; what did the Star Sage mean by that parting remark? What had she discovered? No, Ye Bai must leave Jiaying City as soon as possible; once targeted by the Star Sage, he would very likely go astray.
Streams of black Qi surged toward the Black Knight, and his injuries were gradually recovering.
Even the broken swords were gradually restoring themselves, and black electric arcs once again emerged from the blades.
The electric arcs crackled in the air.
"Hahaha, Fangri Rabbit, you don't have much stamina left now, do you?"
The Black Knight's strained, unbearable voice emerged from his mouth.
"And I am immortal."
"The moment I recover will be the moment you die."
"Don't think anyone is coming to save you."
"The person who would save you has long since been intercepted."
The Black Knight's words came to an abrupt halt.
A sharp sword covered in dragon patterns drew a perfect arc in the air, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound as it pierced the sky.
This True Dragon Sword, radiating a cyan glow, split apart in mid-air, forming seven Dragon-Slaying Swords that exuded majestic dragon Qi.
Each Dragon-Slaying Sword emitted a golden light, and under the influence of the Bronze Ancient Sword, every single one was a Thousand Dragon Slash.
The blades vibrated in the wind, and one could even faintly hear the roar of a true dragon.
Seven sword beams lit up, carving seven dazzling cold lights through the air like seven flashes of lightning cutting through the dark night, instantly illuminating everything around them.
When the tips of the Dragon-Slaying Swords, radiating a cold, biting chill, pierced toward the eyes on the Abyss Magic Armor with unstoppable force—
The pupils on the Abyss Magic Armor contracted sharply at that moment, and even the Black Knight wore a look of disbelief.
How was his weakness exposed?
The seven eyes on the Abyss Magic Armor were the Black Knight's fatal weak point.
As long as all seven eyes on the magic armor were hit simultaneously, the Black Knight would die.
This secret had always been hidden in the Black Knight's heart; he had never spoken of it.
Relying on the immortal body forged by his Abyss Magic Armor, the Black Knight had been able to frequently fight opponents of higher ranks.
"No, no!"
The Black Knight's eyes were filled with terror, but his body had suffered heavy damage just moments ago, and his limbs were severely twisted.
At this moment, he was wriggling on the ground like a maggot, but this could not prevent the descent of the Dragon-Slaying Swords.
With lightning speed, the sword tips pierced directly into the eyes on the Abyss Magic Armor, and a warm, black liquid gushed out—it was the Black Knight's own blood mixed with the fluid from the eyeballs on the Abyss Magic Armor.
The liquid dripped onto the ground, making a "tap-tap" sound, forming a shocking pool of blood.
The Black Knight's wails became even more shrill, and his body twisted frantically under the intense pain, but everything was in vain.
White airflow emerged from the Black Knight's body and dispersed directly into mid-air.
The Dragon-Slaying Swords were absorbing the origin of the Abyss Magic Armor to convert it into their own power.
Seen from afar, it looked as if an Abyss Magic Dragon had been impaled by seven golden Dragon-Slaying Swords.
The exterior of the Abyss Magic Armor dimmed instantly, and the Black Knight felt his life slipping away.
He was about to die—a segment of memory suddenly appeared in his mind; it was his sealed memory.
Once upon a time, he was also a living human being, with a happy family and a harmonious life.
Because of a long-premeditated conspiracy, his wife and daughter were burned alive by raging fire, becoming sacrifices offered to a demon god.
The townspeople were all a group of cultists who specifically targeted people who came to the town for tourism.
They used them as sacrifices for the demon god; he had watched his wife and daughter being burned alive.
He fell into extreme despair.
A mocking voice reached the Black Knight's mind.
Regretful? Painful? Desperate? Want revenge?
"Please, whoever you are, angel or devil, I want power, I want the power for revenge." The Black Knight's pupils were filled with despair, and his voice, having roared for too long, became strained and unbearable, emitting a sound like sawing wood.
"Burn him, burn him."
The surrounding cultists held torches high, chanting slogans, and threw the torches toward him.
The torch fell onto the straw, and the flames licked his body, but he felt no pain at all.
His heart was too desperate, too painful; at this moment, the Black Knight only wanted to follow his wife and daughter to the underworld together.
"Poor soul, a soul that was originally holy and noble, has already begun to be defiled under the emotion of despair."
"I bestow upon you the Abyss Demon Armor, hoping you can fight well for me; from now on, your name shall be Black Knight."
"I need you to assist me well."
"Let your beautiful memories be completely sealed away; from now on, you shall only possess despair."
Amidst the firelight, a human wearing the Abyss Demon Armor walked down step by step, his eyes filled with hatred.
In one night, the entire small town was destroyed, and blood flowed across the ground.
The world lost a kind person, but gained a notorious Black Knight.
Thinking back on it now, all of this was a conspiracy.
It was all a conspiracy by the Blood Saint to control him.
He was the enemy who killed his wife and daughter, yet he had guarded him for so long.
"Ahhh."
Tears of remorse flowed from the Black Knight's eye sockets, and his body completely turned into white bones.
The Black Knight, under the command of the Resurrection Society's Blood Saint, fell with endless remorse.
Resurrection Society, beside the Blood Pool.
One of the Blood Saint's eyes suddenly shed a black tear.
He gripped his eye tightly.
A look of madness appeared in his other eye.
"The Black Knight has fallen."
"Trash!!!"
"Ye Bai, I will not coexist with you!!!"
The passing of the Black Knight was equivalent to directly cutting off one of his own arms; the Blood Saint, who was already at a disadvantage in the Resurrection Society, was now even more passive.
The Blood Saint, who was originally about to break through to the fifth rank in the near future, did not dare to act rashly.
According to the rules of the Resurrection Society, once the Blood Saint broke through to the fifth rank, the battle for the Saint would officially begin.
When the Black Knight was still around, the Blood Saint could still put up a fight.
Now, the Blood Saint could only act like a turtle hiding its head and lie low for a period of time.
Otherwise, once he broke through to the fifth rank, it would be the moment of his death.
Fang Ritu could not hold on any longer; she let go of the Heavy Hammer, and it fell to the ground.
Before losing consciousness, she saw a sunflower appear before her eyes.
So fragrant, so fragrant.
As she lost consciousness, Fang Ritu only felt a sweet liquid pouring into her mouth.
Her previously restless cells gradually returned to calm under the soothing effect of the Flower Nectar.
Jiaying City Pet Beast Union Office.
Chairman Zhang looked at Ye Bai with a grave expression: "Ye Bai, this time, you must leave Yandong Province."
"Head to the Imperial Capital ahead of schedule."
"You have been targeted by the Star Sage of the Gospel Society."
"I cannot tell you the specific reason, but you can no longer remain at Shenshan Middle School."
"In this hunting operation by the Gospel Society, the Undead faction suffered heavy losses, and their leader, the Necromancer, will not let you go."
"Although I don't know why he didn't participate in this activity, you are already on their blacklist."
"They can no longer protect you."
"If you continue to stay at Shenshan Middle School, it will not be a good thing for you, nor for Jiaying City."
"It just so happens that the Yan Country Young Qilin Cup is starting in the Imperial Capital, so you should go to the Imperial Capital."
"Remember, absolutely do not get close to the Star Sage; this is my advice to you as your senior uncle."
"Once you do something that harms the Yan Country, do not blame your senior uncle for personally cleaning up the sect."
Ye Bai had a question at this moment: "If that's the case, how do I take the Imperial Capital University Entrance Exam?"
Chairman Zhang smiled: "With your master and grandmaster around, are you still worried that you won't be able to take the Imperial Capital University Entrance Exam?"
"Rest assured, I will issue a recommendation letter here."
"Moreover, the Imperial Capital University Entrance Exam for Pet Beast Masters is different from the one for ordinary people."
"Your exam location will not be in Yandong Province either; just wait for the notification when the time comes."
"By the way, the reward for you saving everyone previously has not yet been fulfilled, and this time you saved Fang Ritu as well, so you may choose two treasures from the treasury of the Yandong Provincial City Union."
