Chapter 3582

Although the total number of people on both sides at this moment is hundreds, this cannot be strictly considered a war. Because when a thirteenth-level Ringed Shushi is present, the role of others added together may not be as great as the effect of a thirteenth-level sorcery.

After confirming that this space would not collapse easily, Vanessa raised her hand and hundreds of meteorites fell, while Miss Ai Si Bo Ge held that ancient holy emblem obtained from the mausoleum, and called for wind and snow with a light voice amidst the soft singing of her companions.

That seemingly ordinary wind and snow disrupted the arrangement of starlight, making those soul echoes whose bodies were made of starlight unable to quickly absorb the surrounding light. She was transforming the venue to make this place everyone's home field.

Among these past echoes, the two strongest probably also had power equivalent to a thirteenth-level Ringed Shushi. The combat power of these starlight humanoids is actually almost equal to the power of the group, which should not be a coincidence.

Originally, they should not have been defeated too quickly, but Xia De's group knew in advance that they would face such an attack, so they were well prepared. In the situation of grabbing the first move, the battle situation changed rapidly in a direction favorable to Xia De's group. Sorceries composed of various colors collided in this huge underground space, and the fluctuations of the four elements mixed together. The huge phantom was becoming clearer and clearer above everyone's heads.

The clowns also played their role. They were extremely good at hiding and assassinating, and disappeared after the battle began, approaching the direction of the enemy.

When Vanessa and the opponent holding a magic wand among the starlight humanoids were bombarding sorceries head-on, the clown wearing a mask jumped out from behind the opponent, and the dagger glowing with purple-red light stabbed directly into the opponent's back. Then they jumped into the shadows and disappeared again, letting the unstable caster be pushed into the air by the spikes rising from the ground, and then pierced through the body by the thunder spear shot by Xia De.

Bella, as a diviner, did not participate in the battle, but it was not because her combat power was not enough, but because she needed to stay at the back of the team to protect Emilia. She watched the starlights become fewer and fewer under the pursuit of everyone, and then cast her gaze toward the behemoth that was becoming clearer and clearer higher up.

Until the last figure glowing with starlight exploded in the air, but the exploding stars were suppressed to death by the 【Night Curtain Seal】 of Xia De, Megan, and Xi Wei, and this battle, which took less than ten minutes from start to finish, came to an end.

"How come Megan's 【Night Curtain Seal】 feels so much more powerful than Xi Wei's?"

Bella thought in her heart, watching everyone land together, and the little bits of starlight also gradually fell from the air to the water surface, letting ripples like stars also ripple on that shallow water surface.

"The water surface is not glowing because of those falling light spots! Look above!"

The top of this space is arc-shaped, and high up on the arc-shaped rock wall, an irregular crystal body larger than a giant dragon had silently appeared from the void.

Its main body is the star-blue color that only the deepest and farthest night sky can present. Looking closely, countless tiny light spots inside the crystal are sealed in that blue depth, like a miniature nebula fixed and set.

The light spots are not static, they flow slowly and flicker. Some light is sharp silver-white, and some have a hazy purple halo. The light scatters through the crystal wall of the huge crystal, casting swaying light spots on the surrounding air and even on the faces of the group on the ground, as if the entire starry sky was miniaturized in this strange space.

It also fully appeared at the same time the battle ended, and fell slowly from the air. It looks heavy, and that kind of "heaviness" is not only because the real weight is amazing, but also because the starlight contained in it has distant memories from ancient times.

It is a fallen star, a solidified night sky, a strange fate, but also a "giant egg" wrapped in new life.

"Is this... the egg of the Star-Falling Beast?"

At this moment, the outsider seemed to see the broken starry sky turning into a meteor falling toward the material world on the night when the gods left. He saw the earth shaking when the stars came into contact with the ocean, saw the starlight affecting this bay in the seabed for countless years after that, and saw the solidified starlight turning into an egg constantly falling in the seabed.

Finally, from the depths of that "Star Egg", he saw the complete star-blue ring. The ring emitted a faint light, and this was the other party's main body—the Ring of War.

"Star-Falling Beast First Form · Star Egg! Attention, except for the three of us, no one should attack! Others prepare to deal with the soul echoes it calls in the later stages!"

Xia De said, his body grew rapidly, he ran forward at high speed, until he held the falling crystal with both hands in the appearance of a giant.

Thump thump! Thump thump!

The sound of a heartbeat seemed to be perceived by Xia De through touch from inside the crystal. At the same time, he also knew that he could not stop this crystal from falling to the ground. It was incomparably heavy, as if falling downward was its natural mission.

So flames were summoned to wrap the crystal. While Xia De tried to slow down its falling speed by lifting it upward with all his strength, countless slender flying swords hit the crystal from all directions at the same time.

Miss Ai Si Bo Ge and Vanessa also rushed over together. The power of ice and snow turned into chains and bound the "star" in the flames, dragging it upward. The incantations chanted by the female sorcerer summoned wind and snow, letting snowflakes hit the surface of the crystal like white light streams.

Vanessa was dragging the crystal to fall to the ground while controlling gravity, and summoned an earth golem to hold the crystal together with the giant Xia De. Finally, it was the rock pillars shooting upward from the ground, one after another, bombarding the bottom of the crystal.

Cracks appeared on the surface of the huge crystal with the efforts of the three, but the cracks were extremely slight, and even if one didn't look carefully, one couldn't detect them at all.

The heartbeat sound coming from inside the crystal became clearer instead, until even people far away from the battlefield could hear it clearly. And the starlight flickering inside the crystal also gradually gathered toward the inner core, outlining the larva of a creature that was curled up and looked like a scorpion, but also like a rhinoceros.

The spellcasting speed of the three people attacking this "egg" became faster and faster, earth, moonlight, ice and snow, thunder, flames, and even curses, but they could only watch the cracks on the surface of the crystal gradually become longer, and there was no gain other than that.

Even Xia De's 【Black Moon Mark】 could only let that crystal peel off small fragments. And those fragments fell to the ground and turned into the enemies everyone encountered in the passage just now, and were eliminated by the girls on the ground casting spells together.

Finally, accompanied by the sound of thump thump thump~ echoing in the entire underground space, the star-blue crystal finally fell to the ground.

At this moment, everyone's ears heard a huge sound as if the earth was wailing, and everyone's eyes also saw the dazzling white light that would only appear after the light became extremely bright.

"Was it this situation when the fragments of the starry sky fell into this sea area back then?"

And when the sound disappeared and the light dissipated, Matilda and Stella, who were also beside Emilia, looked at the surroundings in surprise. This was no longer that underground space.

Under their feet, deep blue shallow liquid rippled on the ground that was as transparent as glass; above their heads was the deep night sky, and against the background of this deep sky, there were countless stars flickering.

The rock walls disappeared, there were no boundaries around, not only above their heads but even beside them were the starry sky, as if the group had come to the real starry sky at this moment. The curtain of night seemed to make the whole world quiet, and Bella clearly felt that the starry sky displayed above her head and around her at this moment was more complex than any night sky she had seen since she was born:

"This wouldn't be the original appearance of the starry sky, right?"

And at the position where the crystal fell just now, Xia De, Vanessa, and Miss Ai Si Bo Ge all flew into the distance under that huge impact force.

When Xia De stopped in the air and looked at the crystal again, the egg-shaped crystal shell had shattered and was being swallowed by a "scorpion" with a deep blue shell. Starlight also rippled in the shell of the ring beast larva, which made it almost merge with this world, and the hook on its tail glowed with ominous black light.

Even if it lay on the ground, it had a height of three meters. Compared with the behemoth in imagination, this was indeed just a "larva".

And Xia De found that he had actually exited the giant form.

【Outsider, body expansion abilities are ineffective in this starry sky. No matter how huge you are, the stars will always be bigger than you.】

After a slight pause:

【Outsider, you have insights into "stars".】

The "scorpion" with a deep blue glass-like shell soon swallowed all the crystal shells. It ignored everyone, but slightly raised the front half of its body with mouthparts in this distant starry sky and aimed it upward:

"Ang!"

The sound echoed between the flickering stars. Dozens of starlights in the background of the night sky immediately fell toward the ground. But this was not for attack. When those starlights fell to the ground, ripples appeared on the water surface again, and the starlight humanoid figures appeared again.

"Let's do it."

Xi Wei led one-fourth of the members of the team to immediately start fighting with those humanoids, and while fighting, they moved away from the area where the ring beast larva was located. The remaining people watched the battle situation while waiting for more starlight to fall from the sky. They must do their best to ensure that the battle with the Star-Falling Beast larva would not be disturbed.

All sounds in this space would be reduced. The sound of Xi Wei and the others fighting seemed to Xia De to come from another world.

And after the deep blue monster summoned the first wave of soul echoes, it floated into the air lightly in silence, but immediately after, Vanessa, who had already summoned the fate ring and the golden ladder, reached out and pressed downward. The suddenly increased gravity pressed the "scorpion" back to the ground again.

"Let's test what power is most effective against it first."

Xia De said to Miss Ai Si Bo Ge nearby, and the thunder spear was thrown forward and arrived in front of the "scorpion" on the ground in an instant. But the scorpion's tail pointed forward, and the star-blue barrier completely blocked the thunder spear.
