121-21 Love Pair
Chen Jiahong flew through the vast palace, which had now become an aerial fortress. Not only were there traps everywhere, but they were also incredibly intricate. This meant Chen Jiahong had to activate his magical seals frequently; otherwise, finding a boundary tree within this million-square-meter palace would be extremely difficult, especially since even the long-time locals were unsure of its layout. Since Zhizhi couldn't fly, he could only follow behind, slowly searching. Mo Bei was always slower than Chen Jiahong at finding undiscovered traps, and coupled with the depletion of his spiritual energy, he was constantly being outmaneuvered by rapidly triggered mechanisms. Even someone as powerful as Chen Jiahong could let his teammates down; this was probably why he disliked bringing others along.
Seeing that it couldn't move any further, Zhizhi simply returned to the main gate. At that moment, Mo Bei, who had been hit by numerous traps, also flew back, and the two comforted the survivor. Looking back at the palace corridor, they saw lightning flashing within. It was Chen Jiahong, who had been searching for the button or switch, increasing his speed as he flew, causing the corridor to crackle with lightning and be filled with electricity.
Seeing that he couldn't help, Mo Bei immediately rushed out of the palace and used Thunderflame Bombs to launch baskets at the gate, relieving the pressure on the battlefield below. Meanwhile, Deng Kaiyang, seeing the sheer number of people, unleashed his first spiritual skill. Several vines shot upwards from the ground in the far distance, weaving and intertwining into a net, finally binding together into a hemisphere that enveloped the capital city of the Kingdom of Love. Within this domain, those without a blood pact experienced a terrifying 80% reduction in movement speed. Only Chen Jiahong was unaffected; the rest were almost immobilized. The mutants at the farthest point observed the situation.
"If it were just a dozen or so people, it wouldn't be satisfying to fight them, but with hundreds of thousands of them now, I can finally get serious." Deng Kai, whose spiritual energy was about to run out, stubbornly insisted, his domain also on the verge of collapse.
Just then, Mo Bei's lightning-flame bombs rained down on the battlefield, relieving some of the pressure. However, Deng Kaiyang was also dodging the lightning-flame bombs that could hit him at any moment: "Mo Bei, can you work on your aim a bit?"
The domain gradually crumbled and disappeared, and everyone instantly resumed their actions. Chen Jiahong, who had explored 99% of the palace, knew something was wrong. Lightning flashed wildly, enveloping the palace. Chen Jiahong smashed open the gate, swept past Mo Bei, and dazzling lightning bolts fell from the sky. Deng Kaiyang announced a break. Meanwhile, many of the infected had run to the bottom of the palace and started building human ladders along the edge of the giant pit. Even with the combined efforts of two people, they couldn't withstand such a massive number. At a glance, it was a sea of heads surging.
Mo Bei watched Chen Jia Hong's figure and suddenly recalled the scene when she first entered the palace: "Squeak! Where's the switch for the trap at the gate!" Upon hearing this, Squeak immediately ran to activate the trap. Mo Bei leaped down and unleashed Thunder Flame Sky, causing flames to erupt throughout the passage. Squeak also jumped down before the trap closed.
A gust of hot wind blew by, scorching the walls of the secret passage. Black light emanated from ahead, and black mist rose from it from time to time.
Mo Bei and Zhi Zhi saw the boundary tree overflowing with black mud. Zhi Zhi ran to the boundary tree, used her spiritual technique, and chanted, "I love you endlessly~" At the same time, her right hand spread its five fingers, rotating 90 degrees to the right with each "love" gesture, and then retracting. When the love was endless, it rotated 360 degrees to the right. In that instant, all evil karma flew into her right palm, the black energy surrounding the tree tore apart, and the tree began to emit its own faint blue light, which also helped to tear apart the black energy.
The black mud within the bodies of those corrupted beneath the palace was completely sucked out, flying towards the illusory mass at the palace's base. A wave of purplish energy inopportunely drifted away. Chen Jiahong immediately reacted, and Deng Kaiyang followed him towards the illusory mass, located at the lowest point in the center of the palace, separated from the main palace body by a tiny gap. Flying in the sky, Chen Jiahong instructed Deng Kaiyang to extend the vines deep into the gap, guiding them to the entrance. The vines passed through the gap, reaching the room where Mo Bei and his companion were, gradually reaching towards Mo Bei's feet. As Mo Bei watched Zhizhi being gradually enveloped, he subtly lifted his foot to avoid being entangled by the vines.
"It's all my... love..." As Zhizhi was completely enveloped by evil karma, she uttered her last words. Only then did Mo Bei realize that something was wrong. He summoned Lei Yan in his hand and looked down at the vines that were sprouting from the cracks on the side: "If we can just stall for a while, we can wait for Chen Jiahong and Deng Kaiyang."
Squeaky summoned a bow, nocked it, and an arrow overflowing with evil karma appeared. Seeing the danger, Mo Bei immediately activated Thunderfire Skyward, flying almost close to the wall while continuously hurling Thunderfire Bombs at Squeaky. Squeaky simply released her grip, and the arrow shot forth, the evil karma whistling past and scattering across the ground. One arrow struck Mo Bei, embedding itself deeply in the wall, denting it several meters deep.
Mo Bei crashed to the ground after the arrow disappeared, leaves of the Boundary Tree fell, and the evil karma was drawn back into Zhizhi. Besides the pain, Mo Bei's most immediate sensation was the loss of physical and spiritual energy. At that moment, he remembered Luo Amaya's bag and bet that Zhizhi, due to its villainous nature, wouldn't interrupt his examination.
Inside the bag was a long spear. Mo Bei didn't dare use it because the arrow was extremely fast, and the spear was for close combat; using it would be tantamount to suicide. At the same time, he dodged an arrow with a lightning flash, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw countless swirling evil karmas, just like when Deng Kaiyang's domain disappeared. Suddenly, Deng Kaiyang's "domain can restrict speed" exploded in his mind. Under this extreme situation, he comprehended and activated Spirit Skill 6: Thunderous Flame Breaking the Primordial Spirit Domain. The environment was immediately filled with lightning flames, continuously dealing (60%) damage while also granting 40% speed and attack speed reduction. As a skill that was learned even later than the ultimate skill, it was very annoying to have invisibility. At the same time, a lightning flame dragon appeared behind Mo Bei.
Facing the skill-stacking opponent, Zizi fired wildly in all directions, while Mo Bei, with arms outstretched, crouched at the top, seemingly exuding an air of superiority, but it turned out she was simply dodging. Zizi withdrew her evil karma, and just as Mo Bei was wondering what she would do next, countless jet-black evil karma erupted like lava, gathering at Zizi's location to form a dense, thorny forest that blotted out the sky. It then collapsed with a roar, transforming into thousands of black threads that coiled back around Zizi, swirling and emitting sharp whistles as they shot upwards.
