HCB Chapter 41 The Miracle Disappears
Chapter 41 The Miracle Disappears
"He severely injured Poseidon, contributed divine essence and blood, and gained the power of 150 million reincarnations."
Reincarnation Power balance: -70.2.
Looking at the wonderful prompt, Ling Yunxiao wished he could pick up Wang Mian and spin him around a couple of times.
At the same time, at the Cangnan border.
Lin Qiye had already left Cangnan City due to the trickery of the God of Deception. He turned back in astonishment, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. Loki smiled, admiring Lin Qiye's expression. His light, airy voice at that moment sounded like the most terrifying curse in the world.
"You have left Cangnan City. The miracles in the city have ended. Everything you expected has vanished with the wind."
Lin Qiye stared in disbelief in the direction of Cangnan. Many people had told him not to leave Cangnan, but no one had ever mentioned that his departure would have such severe consequences. At this moment, the entire city of Cangnan was gradually turning into streams of light, completely disappearing from the world. Faint sounds seemed to emanate from within the city, but he couldn't hear them.
"Hehe... Want to hear the last words in that city? Do you want to know how many people are wailing and suffering right now? Because of your departure, their loved ones are turning into streaks of light. There must be people cursing you. I'll listen for you!"
Loki laughed heartily at Lin Qiye's devastated expression. He waved towards Cangnan City, and the faint sounds in the distance suddenly became clear.
"Hahaha... We survived!"
"The miracle has failed, but we actually survived!"
"Hahaha... Ten years ago in the City of Miracles, an even greater miracle occurred: we all survived!"
"Hahaha...Mom...we're all alive..."
Cheers and laughter reached Lin Qiye's ears clearly. His eyes trembled as he suddenly remembered what Ling Yunxiao had said to him.
"Seven Nights, no matter what happens next, you must remember two things."
First, I have already used the "living to die" strategy to save everyone, so you don't need to panic.
Second, trust the emotions you personally experience, and don't be misled by false cruelty.
So, Brother Ling's hair turned white overnight and he was on the verge of death all to save the people of this city? He knew about this all along? So, he had been working tirelessly for everyone in the city all along?
Lin Qiye's mindset changed in that instant, and he looked up at Loki.
If Ling Yunxiao were here, he would surely discover that Lin Qiye, enveloped in hope and joy, is far stronger than Lin Qiye, who is consumed by despair and sorrow.
The power of love and protection is often more captivating than the power of hatred.
However, Ling Yunxiao was destined never to know Lin Qiye's whereabouts. By the time he and Wang Mian rushed out with all their might, Cangnan City had already been reduced to ruins.
This was the first time Ling Yunxiao had ever witnessed such a large-scale, almost world-destroying scene. His body trembled slightly with hatred, and his feelings for this city were much deeper than those for Lin Qiye, who had been living in a mental hospital.
Just as Ling Yunxiao was about to take out the Book of Life and Death and risk his life to invite a few old friends, a dazzling golden light shone from the city, and the phantom of a three-pointed double-edged halberd pierced the sky, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
Ling Yunxiao grabbed Wang Mian, pointed in the direction of Yang Jian, and before he could speak, Wang Mian had already resigned himself to his fate and gripped his wrist tightly, pulling him along at full speed.
When Ling Yunxiao and Wang Mian arrived, Yang Jian was roaring to the sky. His three-pointed double-edged halberd had reappeared and was about to pierce through the void and land on Indra's neck, cutting off his head.
"Ah Jin, spare his life! You can't kill this god!"
Ling Yunxiao exclaimed in surprise, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Yang Jian.
Yang Jian stopped, turned around, and his eyes were filled with a chilling intent. When he saw that the person who came was Ling Yunxiao, who was old and frail with white hair and beard, his fingers paused slightly, and the murderous intent in his eyes subsided considerably.
"Brother Ling, why won't you let me kill him?"
Yang Jian knew who had saved the people of this city, and he also knew who had rescued his mother long ago. Therefore, he was still very polite to Ling Yunxiao.
Indra, who had already resigned himself to his fate, couldn't help but smile when he heard that someone had come to his rescue. It seemed that there were indeed cowards among the people of Great Xia; he wouldn't mind taking on another proxy afterward.
"Hoo hoo hoo... Of course it's because I'm going to kill him! If he dies in your hands, he's dead and that's it, he'll leave nothing behind! But if he dies in my hands, he'll be worth a lot. Putting everything else aside, killing him will at least help Lin Qiye keep Loki."
Upon hearing Ling Yunxiao's words, Yang Jian no longer hesitated. He presented Indra, who still had a smile on his face, to Ling Yunxiao and even thoughtfully placed the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd imbued with the power of origin into Ling Yunxiao's hand.
Before Indra could struggle, Ling Yunxiao had already swung his divine halberd, bringing it down hard on his neck. Indra's head flew off, his blood splattering on the ground.
Ling Yunxiao felt a warm current flow into his body, and everything around him underwent a dramatic change. He opened his eyes and found himself standing before Houtu once again.
In the endless darkness, beneath the illusory image of the goddess Houtu, radiating a faint glow in the void, the progress bar had already reached 10%.
So, the requirements double with each upgrade? I've handled at least ten million units of reincarnation power recently! And this is only 10%?
“My child, you did very well. This is my reward for you.”
Houtu remained benevolent and serene, her fingers brushing across Ling Yunxiao's head. Ling Yunxiao instantly felt his blood boil, a power seemingly emanating from the depths of his veins surging forth. He felt his strength and speed had undergone an indescribable transformation; at least, he could now defeat ten Zhao Kongchengs.
The Ancestral God suddenly helped me enhance my bloodline power because he knew my thoughts? So, should I still go? Is that place too dangerous for me now?
"Child, don't be afraid, keep moving forward! Take this pen with you!"
As Houtu finished speaking, a pen landed in Ling Yunxiao's hand. Ling Yunxiao couldn't help but frown. The Judge's Pen? Didn't he already have one?
Before he could ask a question, he had already returned to Yang Jian's side. Fortunately, the judge's pen spoke up in time to explain for him.
"I am the judge's pen of the underworld, summoned here to serve you. The one who just came over, that's a human pen! It can determine life and death with a single stroke, from the highest heavens to the deepest hells."
What had just happened took him some time, but for Yang Jian and Wang Mian, it was only a breath. They were completely unaware of Ling Yunxiao's departure.
