Chapter 486

Hearing the old man's words, the crowd began to stir, and the aura of fear spread rapidly among the people.

They exchanged shocked glances, unable to believe it.

A god?

An ancient god?

"An existence that even the Geo Archon couldn't completely eliminate, what should we do?" Someone's voice began to tremble.

Children felt the panic of the adults and began to cry.

Even though the formation on the Jade Chamber isolated everything, the entire Liyue Harbor was, for a time, filled with fear of the unknown and worry for their safety.

The appearance of Osial was not only a challenge to Liyue Harbor but also a great test of every resident's heart.

While the people of Liyue Harbor were panicked.

On the other side.

Lumine and Paimon had already arrived on the Jade Chamber.

"Eh? The adepts of Liyue are here too."

When they arrived on the Jade Chamber and saw Ningguang and Moon Carver present, Paimon's eyes widened immediately.

The adepts of Liyue and the Liyue Qixing had actually given up their fighting at this moment.

"It's you two."

Looking at Paimon and Lumine who had come up, Ningguang's expression was surprised: "How did you get up here?"

Ningguang didn't expect that these two would also come.

Weren't these two preparing for the Rite of Parting with Mr. Zhongli of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor?

"We just came back from Dihua Marsh with Zhongli, and as soon as we returned, we saw this scene."

Paimon scratched her head: "Then we thought we'd contribute some strength; after all, there's strength in numbers."

"I see."

Hearing Paimon's words, Ningguang nodded gently, looked at Lumine, and said: "Then I'll thank you both first."

At this dangerous time, for these two to stand up and contribute was already a very dedicated thing.

"So, how do we deal with an ancient god next?"

The next second, Paimon scratched her head, looking at Osial in the distance with distress: "Will the adepts of Liyue be a match for that god?"

"Osial is currently breaking the seal, the seal has not been completely broken yet, this process is irreversible, we can only wait."

Hearing Paimon's words, Moon Carver said calmly: "Cloud Retainer has already gone to repair the Guizhong Ballista; I believe that with our combined efforts, we can briefly suppress Osial, but suppressing this god, I'm afraid, won't be so easy."

As he spoke, Moon Carver looked at Osial, who was still breaking the seal and becoming increasingly terrifying, with a furrowed brow: "The Exuvia suppressed this god for so many years; although the power of this god has been weakened by more than half, it still cannot be underestimated."

"This old crossbow, after this adept's modification, is already a brand-new weapon."

At this time, Cloud Retainer descended from the sky, directly waving her wings, and suddenly three small, exquisite things fell down.

When these things fell and landed in front of everyone, they immediately grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Your Jade Chamber has very powerful energy; it's perfect for charging the Guizhong Ballista first."

Cloud Retainer, who had casually tossed out the three Guizhong Ballistae, turned to look at Ningguang: "After the charging is complete, I, Moon Carver, and Mountain Shaper will each pilot one Guizhong Ballista."

"Alright."

Hearing Cloud Retainer's words, Ningguang nodded.

Without any hesitation, she decisively activated the energy of the Jade Chamber.

Since the adepts were acting like this, she naturally wouldn't be stingy with the Jade Chamber's energy at this moment.

"Boom!"

Over Liyue Harbor, the ancient structure of the Jade Chamber became vibrant at this moment, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping was awakened.

Ningguang stood in the middle of the Jade Chamber, her gaze firm, her hand gestures quickly sweeping through the air, activating the power hidden deep within this magnificent building.

Suddenly, a "Boom" rang out.

A sudden surge of massive energy fluctuations emerged from the base of the Jade Chamber, penetrating every inch of stone brick, every tile, until golden runes bloomed over the pavilion.

The appearance of these golden runes was like the brightest stars in the night sky; the power contained within was not only vast but also filled with mysterious and ancient wisdom.

Flowing within the runes was not only Geo elemental power but also the heaven and earth energy that the Jade Chamber had been accumulating at all times.

Each rune emitted dazzling light, its brilliance enough to change the surrounding weather; the clouds were forced away, the dark clouds were dispelled, and even the surging tsunami caused by the Vortex God in the distance seemed insignificant in the face of this power.

"Sure enough, this Jade Chamber is a powerful energy fortress."

Looking at this scene, Moon Carver narrowed its eyes: "Humans are truly incredible."

Actually able to use floating stones, without relying on the power of adepts, to create such a terrifying war machine.

The energy contained within this made even it feel shocked.

"The Jade Chamber floats in the sky, absorbing the elemental power of the natural world every moment to store and charge."

Cloud Retainer narrowed her eyes looking at this scene, and said softly: "This power, once triggered, should be able to resist Osial, and combined with our power—now that Osial's power has faded too much—we should be able to deal with it!"

"Boom!"

While the adepts of Jueyun Karst were communicating.

The golden runes emerging from the Jade Chamber also poured out energy, forming a massive energy field above everyone.

This power was as firm as a rock; whether it was the terrifying pressure of the god from the sea or the violent elemental power of the natural world, neither could easily penetrate this defense composed of ancient wisdom and powerful magic.

And this was just the beginning.

"Boom!"

In the next second, these golden runes rotated and rose around the Jade Chamber, then gathered in the air into a massive blue circle.

The blue source slowly rotated, radiating light that was hard to look at directly; every ray of light seemed to depict an ancient legend.

Guided by Ningguang's Geo elemental power, these halos began to connect to each other, constructing a massive energy web.

This grid continued to expand, traveling through every inch of the Jade Chamber; every pulse brought tremors to the surrounding space.

The energy fluctuations in the runes were so intense that even residents at the edge of the city could feel the ground beneath their feet shaking.

At this moment, the Jade Chamber was no longer a silent watcher but had become a powerful guardian god of Liyue Harbor.

Its power was surging, vast and boundless, as if it could support the entire sky and resist any external invasion.

This formation circle was like a sacred barrier; the light of the energy circle was particularly dazzling in the night sky, like a star in the night sky.

It shone firmly even in the storm.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The terrifying energy of the Jade Chamber continued to surge.

The massive energy network, like a woven star map, spread out in the air; countless delicate rays of light intersected, gathering into a massive magic array.

The array rotated in the void, the runes on it flashing with obscure and difficult-to-understand characters; every stroke was the essence of wisdom accumulated by Ningguang and the sages of Liyue.

The three Guizhong Ballistae tossed out by Cloud Retainer had already grown larger, quietly located at the very center of the array.

As the array was activated, these ancient mechanical objects began to absorb the surrounding energy.

"Hum!"

The light on their surfaces gradually brightened, as if injected with living blood.

Energy flowed along the outline of the Guizhong Ballistae, the light gradually strengthening until they, like ignited beacons, bloomed with dazzling radiance.

"Boom—!"

At this moment, the entire Jade Chamber shook under the effect of this energy, as if resonating with the Guizhong Ballistae; every brick, every step, was vibrating for the awakening of the Guizhong Ballistae.

This vibration spread throughout Liyue, and the people within Liyue Harbor also saw this scene, each of them with expressions of extreme shock.

"What is that?"

"What terrifying energy."

"Lady Ningguang, I knew it, the Jade Chamber is definitely not a simple palace."

"Could that be the energy to fight the ancient god?"

One after another, they were incredibly excited; for this sudden situation, they felt a glimmer of peace of mind.

They could no longer feel the momentum of the ancient god, and seeing the terrifying energy in the sky, everyone was incredibly excited.

That seemed to be a means to deal with the god.

At this time, on the Jade Chamber.

The energy transmission between the magic array in the sky and the Guizhong Ballistae formed pillars of light; these pillars seemed to connect heaven and earth, traveling through the clouds.
