Chapter 1444: When Humanity's Stars Shine Brightest (3)

When Humanity's Stars Shine Brightest (3)

...

"Haha! Ji Xuan big idiot!!"

"Look at him! Dressed in rags, and draped with a tattered cloth picked up from some unknown garbage can! He's so filthy!!"

"I recognize that cloth! That's the tablecloth our family's Wangcai peed on yesterday. My mom threw it away last night... I didn't expect him to pick it up and wear it like a treasure! Hahahahaha!!"

"Look, he's even holding a broken branch in his hand. What does he think that is? A sword?"

"A little brat with no father or mother, dirty and stubborn... Get lost!"

"And Ji Xuan..."

"A wild child, actually having this kind of name, bah!"

That child wore clothes picked up from who knows where, draped a tattered cloth over his shoulders, holding a tree branch whose small twigs had been carefully stripped off in his hands, looking firmly at the numerous figures in front of him...

Behind him, a stray dog, whose skin had been torn open by slingshots, was curled up in a ball. One eye had already been blinded by stones. Its only remaining eye looked at those loudly laughing children, its body whimpering and trembling from fear.

"Don't be afraid, Sky-Swallowing Night Hound!" The youth Ji Xuan turned his head and comforted seriously,

"If they want to bully you, it will only be over my dead body!"

After saying this, the youth Ji Xuan abruptly turned his head to look at those children.

"So what if it's Ji Xuan?!"

"My name, I chose it myself!"

"The people surnamed Ji in novels are all incredibly strong, do you understand? A bunch of ordinary mortals like you, why should I, Ji Xuan, avoid your sharp edges??"

The youth Ji Xuan shouted loudly, holding the sword of a tree branch, and charged towards the numerous figures without fear!

...

Tick tock—— Tick tock——

The hurricane howled.

As the aura of the Cessation Calamity rolled frantically, more and more lives withered in the wind. A rain of blood filling the sky splashed and sprinkled on the ruins of the Xuanyu Base, gathering into streams of blood-colored torrents, flowing silently...

Drop after drop of blood that still retained warmth slid down from the edge of the shattered stone slabs, dripping onto a pale palm.

The fragments of the Hibernation Pod were buried under the ruins.

The liquid that maintained life and the state of slumber flowed silently over the earth.

As that drooping palm was gradually dyed scarlet by the warm fresh blood, his fingertips trembled gently...

And then the palm suddenly clenched tightly!

...

Bang——

The last Celestial Star Puppet was easily torn to pieces by the skeletal sharp claws of the Cessation Calamity. Tian Huai abruptly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his figure falling downwards uncontrollably.

The Cessation Calamity had no intention of letting this annoying human leave alive. With a flap of its wings, a hurricane capable of tearing everything to shreds crashed towards Tian Huai like an invisible meat grinder!

"Careful!"

The voice of the Master of the Babel Tower came from behind. He simply raised his hand, and those Thirty-Six Celestial Star Puppets that had originally been shattered in mid-air reorganized as if time was flowing backward, howling as they charged towards the hurricane!

Bang bang bang——

Puppet after puppet exploded in the air. The wings of the Cessation Calamity that blotted out the sky and sun once again shrouded the firmament. In the next second, a dragon roar produced by air compression resounded through the clouds!

The aura of the Cessation Calamity swept across the heaven and earth. Those puppets that the Path of the Artisan had painstakingly repaired directly disintegrated into fragments filling the sky. Before this World-Ending capable of easily scattering civilization, both the Path of the Artisan and the Path of the Puppeteer were like Glass, shattering at a touch!

Both Eighth-Tier, the Master of the Babel Tower and Tian Huai were simultaneously shaken until their seven orifices bled.

The next moment,

A sharp skeletal dragon claw directly pierced through Tian Huai's chest!

Every single one of the Cessation Calamity's sharp claws was as thick as a building. The tip of this sharp claw pierced into Tian Huai's body, directly piercing his entire torso into a bloody hole. Warm fresh blood instantly sprayed into the sky.

The aura of this Lord of the Esoteric Sect, the current Pathway Chief of the Path of the Puppeteer, rapidly weakened. He opened his mouth, still wanting to say something, but the hurricane torn by that sharp claw through the sky directly blasted his entire body into a blood mist!

"Brother——!!!"

Bound in the carriage, Huai's eyes were splitting.

The Master of the Babel Tower, who was close at hand, witnessed Tian Huai's death with his own eyes. When he sensed the Cessation Calamity's Killing Intent lock onto him, he knew he was finished too... Just as he was about to Risking One's Life to delay, an afterimage wreathed in Killing Intent flew past him!

Jian Changsheng!

Seeing that leather-clad figure whose Killing Intent had stacked to near Eighth-Tier, the Master of the Babel Tower's pupils contracted slightly.

He didn't expect Jian Changsheng to actually be so true to his word. Clearly just a combat force hired by the Hanging Jade Domain with a letter of pardon, yet when facing the Cessation Calamity, he didn't shrink back in the slightest...

And after Jian Changsheng flew past, a figure stepping on a colorful Awakened Lion, and a white-haired afterimage also flashed past one after another.

At this moment, only one thought remained in the Master of the Babel Tower's mind:

Who said the Dusk Society was a bunch of wicked thieves who fear nothing more than a peaceful world?!

This was clearly the light of humanity!

Jian Changsheng's eyes charging towards the Cessation Calamity's sharp claws were full of determination;

Behind him, Sun Bumian saw the Cessation Calamity slowly turning its head, its gaze locking onto Jian Changsheng. In his pupils, colorful rings nesting within each other gradually lit up... The aura of the Reincarnation Cycle began to spread from his body;

Further behind, Jiang Xiaohua silently spat out a Ring from his mouth and slipped it onto his fingertip.

For some unknown reason,

The Cessation Calamity felt an inexplicable sense of danger.

Just as the Cessation Calamity was hesitating whether to deal with these three people,

A particle light beam that pierced the sky, like a Holy Sword, rose with a boom from the ruins of the Xuanyu Base!!

BOOM——!!!!

The Oppressive Aura of the Nine Sovereign Tier rampaged and surged between heaven and earth.

That Particle Holy Sword that nearly pierced through the sky abruptly changed direction, forcefully slicing open the thick clouds, and slashed straight towards the body of the Cessation Calamity!

Feeling that powerful aura, the Cessation Calamity was obviously alerted. Its massive skeletal wings flapped forcefully, and a mass of world-destroying dragon breath shot out fiercely towards the Particle Holy Sword!

BOOM——!!!

The auras of the Nine Sovereign Tier and the World-Ending slaughtered and churned in the air. At the point of collision, it was as if a blazing sun rapidly expanded, finally exploding with a boom!!

Half of the Hanging Jade Domain was leveled to the ground in this collision. The aftermath rolled back. Those human figures who were charging towards the Cessation Calamity wave upon wave were directly shaken and crashed into the ruins of the earth. The battlefield that was originally incomparably chaotic was directly swept clean into a vacuum area!

Fluttering dust drifted in the air.

A figure holding a particle lightsaber in one hand, staggering with every step, walked over from the Xuanyu ruins.

The Lord of Hanging Jade, Ji Xuan.

His figure was taller than when he was a youth, but his gaze remained as resolute as ever. The White Coat Wearer symbolizing science fluttered on his shoulders. The Particle Holy Sword in his palm radiated world-destroying might!!

Those sharp pupils firmly locked onto the massive Cessation Calamity in mid-air. There was not a trace of fear in his tone.

"This, is my domain."

"You want to bully my people..."

"It will only be over my dead body!"
