Chapter 527

"Xia De, you go first..."

Because she was worried that the crystals on her body would spread to Xia De, the maid pushed Xia De, but Xia De shook his head:

"What silly things are you saying?"

He poured the entire bottle of Level 3 Holy Water onto Difa's body. As the liquid flowed along her body, the crystallized body began to recover to normal.

But the holy water was evaporating rapidly. Xia De reached out and held her in his arms, letting the light on his body fully soak her.

The two hugged each other without moving until half a minute later when the earthquake ended and the trend of the crystals around stopped, then they let go.

The darkness in the surroundings was becoming more and more intense. The streams of darkness were surging toward the center of the crystal forest. Because of the crystals, the ground was abruptly a layer higher, and all items in the surroundings were covered by black crystals.

The oppressive environment was affecting their spirits. With the eruption of these dark crystals, Xia De clearly felt that his mood was becoming somewhat bad.

"Be careful, the demon's power is affecting us; it's Human Pus. Don't have negative emotions; try your best to avoid any negative emotions."

The maid reminded him carefully. Her voice was very low. After all four amulets shattered, she was almost unable to hold on.

"I understand."

The streams of darkness were still flowing forward. Following the direction of the darkness flow, the two passed through the thick darkness, moved forward in the oppressive and silent environment, passed through crystal trees one by one, smashed the giant black crystal rocks blocking the way, and finally broke through the crystal forest and officially entered the most core position of the Dark Domain.

The earthquake just now might indeed have been the final blow of the decisive battle. Along the way, they encountered many people sealed by dark crystals, and even the Hidden Servants and Hidden Ones in the 【Dark Domain】 were sealed by crystals. Xia De took the risk to touch them and confirmed that the people inside were not dead, but the crystals were extracting power. This way was very much like "Human Pus."

Leaving the crystal forest, they finally arrived at the large clearing under the giant black pillar.

The pitch-black stone pillar was quietly rooted here, as if drawing power from the ground, spreading darkness to swallow the world. Around the clearing under the pillar, giant black crystals sealed faces of surprise.

Among these twenty-plus crystals, the church's Ringed Shushi accounted for two-thirds, and the others should be helpers found by the Blood-Crying Hermons. From the position, before the earthquake happened, they were unfolding a fierce battle, and it was clearly the Orthodox Church that had the upper hand.

But now, no matter which side it was, they were all motionless.

There was faint light under the tree, but the obstruction of darkness and sound absorption made Xia De and Difa unable to know who else could maintain an active state.

They cautiously walked through the strange black crystals standing like a forest, and relied on the darkness to cover their figures, confirming that the only ones who could not be affected by the dark crystals under the tree were eight people.

Three of them belonged to the Orthodox Church: the Thirteen-Tier Ringed Shushi "Steel Right Hand" Sari Pirot, an Eleventh-Tier female Ringed Shushi with a glowing overlapping leaf holy emblem hanging on her chest, and Iluna.

The brown-haired girl had golden light flickering in her left eye. As she moved, this eye, condensed by Xia De with his last bit of divine power, dragged out golden bright traces in the darkness, as if golden flames were burning in her eye sockets.

Among the other five, an old woman holding a bronze book branded with the Zaras Spell Academy school emblem stood with the three from the church; the injured Miss Miss Jia Lin Na stood leaning against a crystal a bit further away; a strange tall middle-aged man with a Twelfth-Tier Spirit Ring rotating behind him leaned on a cane, and beside him was a strange Tenth-Tier Ringed Shushi.

All their figures were exceptionally hazy. If Xia De wasn't familiar with Miss Miss Jia Lin Na and Iluna, it would be really hard to recognize them.

Xia De and Difa came behind Miss Miss Jia Lin Na. The witch looked toward the side and rear, nodding slightly to signal them not to speak.

As for Dac Nisi, he leaned against the trunk of the giant tree, his left hand gripping a metal sword hilt wrapped in bandages. The black sword body on the hilt was composed of wriggling pus, which should be the hilt of the Dark Sword.

And the black streams surging from all directions were surging toward his right hand. The red glove on his right hand had disappeared, and the darkness was being swallowed by the opened demon mouth, and at the same time, it was dyeing him black, making him look stronger and stronger.

But his situation didn't look good either. His entire right leg was covered by black shadows, and there were pitch-black traces everywhere on his body. These traces were his way of repairing his body, representing that if it weren't for the 【Dark】 talent, he wouldn't even have a corpse by now.

"The ritual, the Chosen One ritual of 【Darkness】 is to swallow darkness, absorb the power of the distant past, and let that power merge with himself, using 'darkness' and 'history' to piece together the road to the future."

The witch explained the current situation in a low voice. The sound absorption of darkness made it impossible for anyone to hear her voice except the two nearby.

"How did you come?"

The witch asked cautiously, but because the situation was complex, Xia De didn't explain. His hand was pressed against Miss Miss Jia Lin Na's side from behind, silver light representing the 【Cynthia's Silver Moon】 blessing.

"Who are those people over there?"

Xia De asked in a low voice, hiding behind the crystal.

"Three Ringed Shushi from the church. You should know Steel Right Hand. The Eleventh-Tier one is from the Church of Nature. The youngest girl is the first Chosen One. She is very powerful. I remember you seem to have taken her to the Lucky Southern Cross Club? Beside them is Professor Golis from the Zaras Spell Academy. The man leaning on the cane is a vampire species, Twelfth-Tier, and beside him is a Tenth-Tier Ringed Shushi from the Blood Spirit School."

Miss Miss Jia Lin Na introduced quickly, and at the same time, Dac Nisi silently raised the Dark Sword in his left hand.

This sword was an ritual sword used by the priests of the Ancient God 【Darkness of the Crawling】. After the Human Pus repaired the sword body, it seemed to possess the power of a demon. The wriggling darkness made the sword body appear curved, but no one would question its power.

"Did you think Mr. Hermons was really led away?"

Scarlet eyes looked at everyone around. Even though the black crystals just now didn't seal the rest of the people here, everyone's state was not good. Dac Nisi's current state was very strange. The giant pillar piercing the sky behind him seemed to be giving him power.

Xia De pulled Difa and hurriedly hid behind the black crystal. He had a feeling that Dac Nisi's eyes could also see through the surrounding darkness.

"What exactly does the Blood-Crying Hermons know?"

The old professor from the Zaras Spell Academy asked in a deep voice. She was manipulating five balls of fire suspended in an arc above her head.

"You lost."

The demon's mouth swallowed the darkness around, Dac Nisi breathed heavily, and the Spirit Ring behind him was also expanding:

"You shouldn't have let me come here. When I stood here, I had already won. Do you think, why did our 【Blood Spirit School】 send people to investigate the 【Dark Domain】 half a year ago?"

He should be referring to the vampire Xia De killed in the underground ruins.

"The Blood-Crying Hermons knew long ago that the second Chosen One was related to the 【Dark Domain】? Do you have more 【Whispers of the Chapter】?"

Mr. Sari Pirot, who was blocked by the Twelfth-Tier vampire species, asked in a deep voice. Although the vampire species couldn't beat the Thirteen-Tier Ringed Shushi in this darkness, the racial ability to transform into a bat swarm was quite troublesome.

"Not just the Blood-Crying Hermons, my partner gave me more information. I am not only a Chosen One, I am also a person favored by demons!"

Dac Nisi's right hand suddenly moved backward, sticking tightly to the trunk. The demon mouth bit the giant pillar. In his arm, something seemed to be flowing. The right hand was absorbing something from the pillar piercing the sky, gurgling. The golden light spots on Dac Nisi were becoming stronger and stronger. This speed of strength improvement was simply bizarre.

"A god once killed a powerful ancient evil spirit demon here and sealed the corpse here, which is why this area was formed. But do you know where the demon's corpse is?"

"Is it this pillar? Is this pillar the corpse?"

Professor Golis from the Zaras Literature Academy asked. Her opponent was a strange shadow. That shadow seemed to be the product of Dac Nisi's shadow stirring and crushing the Hidden Servant and the two merging, looking even more terrifying than the Twelfth-Tier vampire species.

"Yes, this is the key to completing the ritual. That's why Mr. Hermons led the Sunlight Greatsword away in advance. And all of you, none of you can escape! Mr. Hermons arranged everything, and I am the Chosen One. Fate favors me!"

He took his right hand off the trunk, and then bent down abruptly and inserted it into the ground. Black pus spread instantly, the ground vibrated again, the surrounding airflow was chaotic, and with the earth's wailing, the ground appeared with crystal spreading phenomena again.

This time it was even more terrifying than just now. The rustling crystals clung to the surface of all objects layer by layer.

Among the eight people who could still move just now, the Eleventh-Tier Ringed Shushi from the Church of Nature and the Tenth-Tier Ringed Shushi beside the vampire species were sealed by crystals first, and then the old professor from the Zaras Literature Academy, because she still had to fight with that shadow, was also unfortunately sealed:

"If I had known there was an ancient demon here, I should have let the people from the Serkesai Medical Academy come."

This was the last dissatisfied mutter she left behind.

Xia De hugged Difa tightly, but even so, the feet of the two completely turned into a crystal state. But fortunately, they were both wearing boots, so just take off the boots. This power from the ancient crystal demon seemed to be immune only to the light on his body.

Miss Miss Jia Lin Na summoned the Eleventh-Tier Golden Staircase of the witch, barely resisting the dark crystal state, but had no energy to attack. The Thirteen-Tier Ringed Shushi "Steel Right Hand" Sari Pirot from the Church of Creation was completely unaffected, and cooperated with Iluna, who was also unaffected. In the third second after the earthquake, he grabbed one of the bat swarms dancing in the air, and then used his steel right hand to grasp it, restoring it to a human state.

Mr. Pirot looked at Dac Nisi:

"Don't you care about your companion's life?"

He strangled the neck of the Twelfth-Tier vampire species. The latter tried hard to pry open the opponent's hand, but could only make a hoarse sound from his throat.

"Companion? Didn't all my companions die?"

Dac Nisi laughed, panting and leaning his back against the giant pillar behind him, his right hand continuing to absorb the darkness around. Although it looked like he used the power of the ancient demon combined with Human Pus to seal all living things in this crystal forest, as a human, this was a great burden for him.

Mr. Pirot also smiled and threw the unconscious vampire species aside. The moment it hit the ground, black crystals appeared on the surface of its body, and it was wrapped by crystals in one breath.

"Beiya, don't intervene, this thing is very dangerous. I'll deal with him. I want to see if the so-called ancient demon power is enough for him to deal with a Thirteen-Tier Ringed Shushi like me."

"I am the Chosen One, I have already stepped on the path of fate. I, will not lose."

Dac Nisi's scarlet eyes looked at Mr. Pirot, looking as confident as the Thirteen-Tier Ringed Shushi.

And Iluna didn't disobey the order. After nodding slightly, she took two steps back. She looked sideways toward Miss Miss Jia Lin Na's direction, and for a moment, she locked eyes with Xia De. ===== CHAPTER 529 =====
