It was midnight!
The sun was still below the surface of the sea. It was the darkest moment of the day.
To the east of the Twin Dragon Island, behind Fang La's camp, inside a cave that was guarded by a bunch of soldiers with red scarves on their heads …
"Light is generally pure, and joy is always in nirvana. They are happy without worries, and if they complain of suffering, they are not. They are always in the light of happiness, and if they complain of sickness, they are not. If anyone lives in that country, he will be free of worries, and his place will be solemn and pure, and all evils will not be purged … "
Fang La, with white flames popping up at the center of his eyebrows, stood on an enormous altar that was surrounded by twelve pillars of black fire, and chanted the Scripture of Light!
"Holy Fire, grant me divine power!"
"Holy Fire, grant me divine power!"
On the white altar, a hundred believers were sitting cross-legged with devotion and excitement on their faces.
They opened their hands and raised them in front of their chests, as if flames were soaring!
Accompanied by the chanting of a group of people.
Some white flames that resembled candlelight separated from the white statue of the Lord of Light on the altar that was dozens of feet tall.
Then, it floated into the palms of the hundreds of believers on the altar that were raised in front of their chests.
Hum!
Then, the Ordinary believers vaguely emitted Extraordinary power waves.
Some of the Extraordinary people even had vague flames popping up at the center of their eyebrows, and their vibe became a lot stronger.
"Lord of Light, Lord of Light …"
After sensing the concrete changes in their bodies …
Those people, who were the generals, soldiers, and even civil officials of the south, became zealous as they chanted at the same time!
Boom!
However, exactly at this moment …
A deafening noise came from outside, but it instantly drowned out the zealous roars of the hundred believers.
Pop! Crackle!
Following that, the entire cave seemed to have suffered a powerful blast.
A lot of sand and stones fell from the ceiling, making the twelve enormous pillars of black fire around the altar shake unsteadily.
"What's going on?"
Fang La, who was looking at the believers who were shouting passionately in satisfaction, suddenly changed his expression.
"Your Majesty, the military camp … the military camp … was just struck by lightning!"
A few seconds later, a general from the south who was covered in dust charged into the cave. His armor had mostly been damaged, and there was even a black piece of shrapnel sticking out of his abdomen. He looked rather panicked!
As rebels, most of the so-called generals and ministers under Fang La's command were born as coachmen, fishermen, and other bottom-level people. It was inevitable that they would lose their composure when something happened.
"You didn't listen to me yesterday and even tried to approach the forbidden area of the Twin Dragon Island.
"He has already angered the All-Heavens Dragon Emperor. He ordered me to send down heavenly punishment. If you persist in going about things the wrong way and take another step forward, even your so-called Revered Ming will be punished! "
As soon as this general finished speaking, a voice penetrated the mountain rocks and entered the ears of everyone on the altar.
"It's the person who blasphemed the Revered Ming yesterday!"
"Bold demon, you must be using a demon art to deceive us. Your Majesty, this subject requests to go out to battle. I will definitely capture this demon and purify him with the holy fire! "
"Your Majesty, I also request to fight!"
After hearing what Ji Ye said …
The people in the cave weren't as shaken as those people yesterday. Instead, they all requested to fight Fang La excitedly.
"Silence!"
Fang La, however, raised his voice to silence them.
Then, he approached the white statue and chanted a spell. His hands were in the shape of flames, as if he were listening.
After a few seconds, he raised his head and declared to the eager believers with a thunderous voice, "The Revered Ming has just issued an oracle.
"Revered Ming has just passed down an oracle. This person has profaned the light and is guilty of a heinous crime."
"Anyone who kills the blasphemous demon will be rewarded with the holy fire to cleanse their soul. The Revered Ming will personally lead them to the World of Light as a deity. In order to kill the dead, Revered Ming will also send a 'Son of Light' to bring them into the Great Light World.
"Also, give out my order. Whoever captures and kills this man will be appointed as the Marshal of the State of Defense and will be rewarded with a hundred thousand gold coins! "
…
"Is … Is this really a heavenly punishment?"
"We've really offended the All-Heavens Dragon Emperor!"
At the same time, people in the camp outside of the cave were already panicking.
At the center of the camp where almost ten thousand people were stationed, there was a huge pit where smoke was popping up.
The dozen or so tents around the big hole had been overturned by the fierce blast waves. There were dozens of bodies that had been blown into pieces, and a large number of people had been affected by the heavenly fire caused by the "Heavenly Thunder". Their bodies were on fire, and they were screaming and rolling on the ground.
The so-called Heavenly Thunder that the general of Fang La's army had mentioned was naturally the Flood Dragon's Egg.
It was the Flood Dragon's Egg, which had the widest range of destruction among the modern weapons that the Twin Dragon Island had created so far.
However, because it was detonated by Ji Ye's Lightning Superpower that descended from the sky, the enemy mistook it for a Heavenly Thunder Descent!
After throwing down the super firecracker that blew up the entire camp of Fang La's army …
Ji Ye didn't leave just yet.
Instead, he swaggered to the scene of the explosion that was illuminated by the raging fire.
Under the light of the fire, there was a faint white mist in his eyes. He looked at the group of soldiers who were pale as they tried to attack, but their expressions were filled with fear.
It was because a brawny man who was wearing leather armor that was made of burnt black bear hide and had bear claws on his hands that were as thick as millstones.
The General Flying Bear Xu Fang, who had survived the explosion of the Flood Dragon's Egg but died in Ji Ye's hands, was an Extraordinary Rank-7 general who was only second to the four marshals under Fang La's command!
Their generals had all been killed by an enemy who descended from the sky with a terrifying "Heavenly Thunder".
Most of the ordinary soldiers were only Ordinary, and the strongest among them was no higher than Extraordinary Rank-5. How could they dare to go forward and capture the enemy?
"What … His Majesty's order …"
However, very soon, they seemed to have received some news, and some of the soldiers at the periphery began to move.
"Huh? Are you ready?"
"Okay, I'll lure him here right now!"
In the sky above the camp, Ji Ye, who was covering himself with the illusion created by the Mirage Dragon Pearl in front of him so that he wouldn't be discovered by the people down below, replied to the voice from the mini walkie-talkie he was wearing.
"Your so-called Lord of Light is nothing compared to the Empyrean Dragon Emperor that I serve. The Heavenly Thunder today is just a minor punishment for you.
"If you don't turn back, I'll be destroyed by the Heavenly Thunder the next time I come!"
Ji Ye, who was in the camp down below, began to move in a certain direction after saying that.
The white Dragon Aura around him became even more eye-catching. Like an enormous lightbulb, it attracted the attention of a lot of soldiers in the dark night!
"His Majesty has decreed that whoever captures and kills this man will be named as the Marshal of the State of Defense and rewarded with a hundred thousand gold …"
"The Lord of Light has decreed that whoever kills this man will have their soul enter the world of light …"
At the same time, Fang La's bounty had been spread to the entire southern military camp in thunderous voices.
"He's running to the sea!"
"He's a sea demon! Don't let him touch seawater!"
After hearing that, the soldiers who didn't witness the horrifying power of the Heavenly Thunder became zealous. They yelled and chased after Ji Ye, who was like a lightbulb, without any hesitation.
"Demon, don't you dare run! Take this!"
"I'm General Li of the Flying Dragon Kingdom …"
"You're not going to break out of the siege …"
Many generals who were confident in their strength stood in Ji Ye's way with their weapons.
"Ah … What … Pew …"
Those second- and third-rate generals, who were only Extraordinary Rank-5 and Rank-6, were slapped away by Ji Ye without much suspense. Even the fences and fortifications that were made of stone and wood in the camp were destroyed without being able to stop him.
However, "Ji Ye" was delayed because of that.
Along the way, after killing nearly 100 soldiers who were so fanatical that they wanted to die for the "Kingdom of Light", when they were only half a mile away from the seaside, they were still surrounded by the army from all directions.
"Kill him!"
"By the Holy Fire!"
"Kill the blasphemer!"
Then, countless sabers, spears, and arrows were shot at him!
