The sky above the dark and chaotic snowfield echoed with a strange, ear-piercing shriek. It was as if the wrath of nature was gathering rapidly. The vengeful spirit had sensed that its foundation was under threat. It had to interrupt its recovery process to intercept these intruders. Meanwhile, Hao Ren was looking at the strange thing in front of him in astonishment. He had even forgotten about the raging snowstorm around him.
The "sealed ground" that Vivian mentioned was a black platform.
There was nothing special about the platform. It was just a flat, circular platform with a radius of a few feet. There were signs of rough grinding, which was obviously the handiwork of Vivian. What really caught their attention was the lavender light membrane that floated above the platform.
The light membrane was more than ten meters high and about three to four meters wide. It was translucent, and one could easily see the scene on the other side through the light membrane. It was like an aurora falling from the sky. Hao Ren guessed that it was some kind of dimensional rift.
Lily climbed onto the stone platform and reached out to touch the light membrane. However, her hand went straight through it. The dimensional rift was dormant and seemed to be unpassable.
Vivian looked up at the light membrane, then bent down to examine the stone platform that she had not seen for more than three hundred years. "I made this pedestal. The dimensional rift was already there. I used the residual energy of the rift to build this sealing altar below it."
Hao Ren's eyebrows twitched. "This dimensional rift is the 'gateway' from three hundred years ago? The vengeful spirit came out from it? "
Vivian nodded. "I don't know how it formed, but the vengeful spirit obviously came from here. After I defeated the vengeful spirit, I tried to send it back to the gateway, but it failed. The gateway might be faulty and could not be activated at all. So I had to set up a seal near the gateway to suppress the vengeful spirit in this place. Look, these runes were left behind by me. "
As Vivian spoke, her finger gently brushed the edge of the circular pedestal. Immediately, some dark red light appeared. It was the Letta runes.
"Did you get the 'stones' from this place as well?" Lily asked casually.
"It fell out of the crack after the vengeful spirit was sealed." Vivian scratched her head. "I don't know what's going on with this crack. It's obviously closed, but something did fall out of it at the time. Later, I tried to drill through this layer of light, but I didn't succeed. "
Hao Ren did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Then, you didn't know what the stone that fell out of the light film was, and you just gave it to someone else? You're really … Don't you think ordinary people can withstand something that's related to supernatural power? "
"I was poor back then." Vivian felt a little wronged. "Other than the stones I picked up from the streets, I had nothing else to give away."
"Can we not talk about the gateway first?" A sharp whistle came from the sky. Nangong Sanba suddenly raised his crossbow nervously. "The energy concentration around us seems to be reaching a critical point!"
The blizzard in all directions was rapidly intensifying. There were countless indescribable shadows hovering in the sky, forming a new storm. Snowflakes seemed to appear out of thin air, falling from the dark night sky where nothing should exist. Strange flashes of light began to appear around them. Once again, Hao Ren felt the tingling sensation on his skin. This tingling sensation was a sign that the vengeful spirit was approaching!
A large swarm of bats quickly dispersed around Vivian. The lightning web was brewing in the swarm of bats. "Defeat the vengeful spirit here, and I can seal it again!"
The next moment, the vengeful spirit seemed to realize the threat and hostility of the group of people in front of it. A strange tearing sound came from all directions like a tsunami. Then, countless chaotic shadows appeared in the air and madly rushed towards the group of people around the round table!
Just as Hao Ren was about to use his Graviton Bomb again, a pale brilliance suddenly burst out around them. White Flame spread her hands, her long hair dancing without any wind. Then, an endless sea of fire appeared out of thin air as far as her eyes could see. The pale flames were colder than the surrounding snowstorm. However, under the erosion of the white flames, the rocks turned into steam, the ghosts turned into ashes, and even the lightning seemed to be ignited by the flames. The flames flowed against the path of the lightning and directly ignited the thunderstorm clouds in the sky!
The sea of white flames burned, and the powerful attack of the vengeful spirit, which was almost a natural phenomenon, was constantly being dissolved by the strange flames. Hao Ren looked at White Flame in amazement and muttered to himself, "Don't demon hunters use crossbows?"
"Crossbows are just standard equipment. There are also demon hunters who specialize in spells and magic," Vivian released her swarm of bats after a brief moment of surprise. At the same time, she turned to Hao Ren and explained, "There are also demon hunters like White Flame. If I'm not mistaken, this is her innate ability after the awakening of her bloodline."
Hao Ren was amazed. "… How did the mage-emperors create this kind of superhuman?"
"What?" Nangong Sanba did not understand.
Hao Ren casually made up a story. "Nothing. It's about the story of your ancestor being pulled out from the body of the oldest ancestor by another group of ancestors."
"… What?"
The pale flames burned the twisted spirits away. Vivian's swarm of bats spread out an overwhelming lightning net, as if to catch the storm and forcibly stop the snowstorm that was about to turn into a tornado. Vivian's fighting spirit seemed to have been inspired by the demon hunters. The dazzling lightning was almost at the level of a natural phenomenon, like the surrounding tornado!
The screeching did not stop for a moment. The strange sound almost pierced through the brain. The formless vengeful spirit seemed to feel that the threat this time was fatal. Its attack was even fiercer than before. White Flame's pale flames had the upper hand at first, but as more spirits emerged from the surrounding storm, the speed at which the flames were replenishing could not keep up with the gathering storm.
A twisted shadow suddenly broke through the wall of flames and went straight for White Flame. White Flame was focused on controlling the flame that was burning the sky. When she reacted, the shadow was already in front of her. The calm and confident demon hunter could not help but show a look of panic on her face.
But when the shadow was less than half a meter away from White Flame, it was suddenly cut in half by a crimson line of fire. Lily raised her claws and shouted at White Flame, "Don't just stand there!"
White Flame was stunned for a moment. She muttered to herself, "Otherworldlings can also save people?"
At this moment, a flashing rectangular metal block suddenly flew over the wall of flames, drawing an arc in the air as it flew towards the snowstorm wall and the continuous stream of spirit monsters. In the continuous sound of space tearing, the vengeful spirit's reinforcements began to collapse.
Hao Ren poured out two boxes of Graviton Bombs and distributed them to Nangong Wuyue and Becky. "Throw it hard! Enough! "
"Did you really kill this vengeful spirit all by yourself?!" Lily waved her claws and killed the spirits that slipped through the net as she shouted at Vivian. "Why do I feel that it's more powerful than all of us combined?!"
"I was much more powerful than I am now!" Vivian replied loudly in the air. "And then I slept for a long time and lost my level!"
Hao Ren looked at the endless storm and light around him. He felt that the vengeful spirit was the most troublesome enemy he had ever encountered in his life. He had fought stone golems, demon hunters, werewolves, shadelings, and even the First Borns. But those guys at least had a physical form, and he could see a big hole in them with a single shot. But the vengeful spirit … He was still not sure what he was fighting against!
He only saw the endless snowstorm, the shapeless shadows, the indescribable light and whistling sound, and the crackling electricity on his skin. He did everything possible to destroy these supernatural phenomena because Vivian said that it could reduce the power of the vengeful spirit. But honestly, even an old expert like Vivian, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, did not know the nature of the vengeful spirit. She did not know how the "reduction" would affect the vengeful spirit. She only knew that it should be done, but no one knew how it worked.
No one even knew how to approach a vengeful spirit.
"I have detected a large-scale... field." The MDT finally knew its duty. It had been trying to analyze the life form of the vengeful spirit. Now, at the place with the highest energy intensity, it finally found some of the attributes of the thing. "The range is one kilometer... No, the range is not fixed. It's like an electric field, and the frequency is constantly changing. The energy evolution process inside this field is somewhat similar to life. This is probably the vengeful spirit."
Was this the nature of the vengeful spirit? A... creature with a field effect?
At this time, Hao Ren suddenly felt his collar move. Lil Pea finally could not stand the noise outside. The little one poked her head out and looked outside curiously. When she saw the scene outside, she cried out in surprise.
Then, no one knew what the little mermaid was thinking, but she suddenly began to "sing".
The snowstorm suddenly weakened.
