Chapter 172 Domain, Deploy!
Vinnie Berent's mind was filled with the word "impossible." The awakening of the Wind and Thunder Gods meant that the Night Emperor had also awakened, but that was impossible.
After entering the demigod realm, the Night Emperor couldn't resist his own sleepiness and fell into an eternal slumber from which he would never wake.
For half a century, he had never awakened, and no matter how hard the Eternal Night Church tried, they couldn't awaken this demigod.
It was also impossible for the Wind and Thunder Gods to break free from the sleeping curse on their own. If they could have, they wouldn't have fallen asleep in the first place.
Because the characteristic of the Eternal Night profession was that the longer one slept, the closer the soul and body became to extinction. The longer it dragged on, the less likely they were to wake up.
Vinnie Berent was just about to say, "Are you sure?"
When she heard the Lingjing notification in her ear: [Ding! The morality of the Thunder God, Boreas, has been cleared. Killing them will grant generous rewards.]
At this moment, all the Lingjing Xingzhe in the real world received the Lingjing notification.
The Wind and Thunder Gods, who caused a natural disaster last December, paralyzing a city and causing more than 100,000 casualties, had returned once again. All the high-ranking members of the two camps were in a panic.
Kyoto, in the Five Elements Alliance headquarters' meeting room, which combined high-tech listening and surveillance systems with soundproof and anti-wraith formations, nine beams of light were projected down.
The Nine Elders appeared in the fluorescent blue beams, looking at each other. A solemn atmosphere spread in the silence. No one spoke for a long time.
After a moment, Grand Elder Di Hong spoke first, his tone heavy, "The Wind and Thunder Gods have awakened. Heavenly Punishment just contacted us for help, hoping that the peak lawful dominator power will jointly fight against the Wind and Thunder Gods."
Grand Elder of the Red Fire Gang slammed the table angrily and said, "This isn't asking for help, it's inviting us to our deaths!"
Wonderful Elder sighed, "There are no demigods in the real world anymore. Facing such high-level powerhouses, all we can do is watch and pray. To try to stop them is suicide, it's meaningless."
After the fusion of the Wind and Thunder Gods, their level reached 12. Even if all the nine-star peak experts in the world were to fight, the Wind and Thunder Gods could cut from south to north, and then from north to south, without even breaking a sweat.
Grand Elder of the Water God Palace looked around and said, "So we're just going to watch?"
"What else can we do?" Wonderful Elder said indifferently, "The Wind and Thunder Gods are too high-level, and without a demigod, how can we stop them? From a practical standpoint, this is beyond our ability to handle."
"And from a selfish point of view, it's not happening on our side anyway. The Free Alliance's problem is for the Free Federation to solve themselves. There's no reason for us to risk our lives to clean up Heavenly Punishment's mess. We just need to take care of our own affairs."
"Besides, although the Wind and Thunder Gods are crazy, their instinct to hunt down evil professions is still there. Maybe they can eliminate many evil faction experts. Although they no longer care about the lives of ordinary people, that's something we can't control."
As they spoke, the Lingjing notifications continued to echo in their minds, meaning that the Wind and Thunder Gods were slaughtering wantonly, points were deducted again and again, and the Lingjing wanted them more and more.
The eight peak dominators looked at each other, neither refuting Wonderful Elder nor agreeing with his views.
But at this time, silence was acquiescence. At this moment, the Sword Pavilion Elder tapped the table and said in a deep voice, "You're focusing on the wrong thing. Shouldn't the focus be on why the Wind and Thunder Gods awakened!"
"If they've awakened, what about the Night Emperor?"
The elders trembled, inexplicably feeling a strong unease. Free Federation, New Covenant County, in an office building.
An Diexi rushed into the boss's office in a panic, watching Zhai Cai, who was wearing a black mink coat and stuffing expensive liquor and cigars into a backpack, and said, "Boss, the Wind, the Wind and Thunder Gods have appeared again! Boss, what are you doing?"
"What else can the boss do? The boss is preparing to run away." Zhai Cai said unhappily, "Diexi, bring me that box of watches worth five million Federation dollars."
An Diexi was stunned. "Shouldn't we respond to Heavenly Punishment's call and discuss countermeasures to jointly fight against the Wind and Thunder Gods? It's not good to be a deserter right after joining Heavenly Punishment, is it?"
"Stupid!" Zhai Cai scoffed, "The demigods have all entered the instance dungeon, and my armor has been borrowed by the Void Society Leader. How can we ants fight against the Wind and Thunder Gods?"
"Sacrifice is the knight's destiny, you yourself said..."
"Sacrifice isn't suicide." After a flurry of activity, Zhai Cai threw out a teleportation jade talisman and said, "The Wind and Thunder Gods will follow the spiritual power and kill the Lingjing Xingzhe. The higher the level, the easier it is to be targeted. I'm going to Huaguo to find Yuanshi Tianzun. If Huaguo is also affected, we'll join his gang and hide in the gang's instance dungeon."
After speaking, with a "crack," he crushed the teleportation jade talisman in his hand.
The Return of the Dead group!
Sun Miaomiao: "Hey, what's going on? Weren't the Wind and Thunder Gods sealed? How did they come out again?"
Red Chicken Brother: "What's there to worry about? There are tall people to hold up the sky when it falls. Didn't the five alliance leaders take action to settle the Wind and Thunder Gods last time? This time it will be calmed down quickly too."
The entire chat group suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke for a long time.
Including his confidant subordinate, Fear King, everyone's first reaction was that Shura planned to give up this fight and choose to retreat to preserve his strength.
But the next second, they saw the Taiyi Sect Master, who had retreated to the rear of the lawful demigods, take out a three-legged small cauldron from his inventory.
He tilted the mouth of the cauldron and poured out a middle-aged man wearing a black robe, with a pale face, no hair, no beard, no eyebrows, and emerald green eyes.
The Night Emperor!
How could the Night Emperor be here? How could the Night Emperor be in the Taiyi Sect Master's item!
Seeing this middle-aged man appear, the evil demigods felt a monstrous wave in their hearts, and their pupils contracted sharply.
The middle-aged man with no hair, no beard, and no eyebrows sat down on the ground, lowered his eyes, and without even looking at the demigods present, made a hollow and loud voice, "Domain."
As soon as they heard these two words, the evil demigods disappeared from the spot like startled rabbits, as if they had learned teleportation...
A deep darkness swelled from the Night Emperor's body, rapidly spreading, encompassing hundreds of kilometers, extinguishing all spiritual power, and putting everything to sleep.
The lawful demigods looked back in shock and were instantly swallowed by the deep darkness.
Star Lord! Thoughts of anger, incomprehension, and confusion flashed through their minds. Their steps faltered a few times, and their bodies, spiritual power, and spirits were unable to resist. He inevitably fell into a slumber.
"Thump, thump, thump." The level 10 lawful demigods fell one after another into the barren land, falling into eternal slumber. The Night Emperor, who, like the Goddess of Beauty, specialized in only one ability, could even pull the Wind and Thunder Gods into slumber, let alone them.
Only the Void Demigod, the level 10 Goddess of Beauty, and the Xie family ancestor, who had the Demon Refining Pot, who were the most mobile, did not immediately fall asleep when the darkness spread, and managed to escape the cover of the sleeping domain in time.
Of course, there was also the Star Lord, who had already star-遁 to a distant place.
"Star!!" An angry roar came from high in the sky. The Void Society Leader, wearing a silver mask, had a glittering and shining Treasure Tree of Myriad Treasures emerging from behind him. He hung the black heart covered with pores and the dark golden female face mask on the top of the Treasure Tree of Myriad Treasures.
He looked down at the Star Lord from above, the surrounding air twisting and boiling, furious to the extreme: "You really are a traitor! I'm going to skin you alive and crush your bones, I'm going to make your body and spirit disappear!"
The evil demigods who successfully escaped the sleeping domain looked at this scene in astonishment, looking at the lawful demigods who were lying on the ground, almost wiped out in one fell swoop.
Unable to understand what was happening before their eyes, unable to understand how the Star Lord and the Night Emperor had hooked up.
Even more incomprehensible was the meaning of the Star Lord doing this.
Only Ling Tuo frowned, seeming to understand something, and his face changed.
"Puff!"
At this moment, a bronze-colored blade tip pierced out from his chest. This knife was covered in bronze rust, and the blade was blood-red. It was a bronze scimitar, and the hilt was the head of a Yaksha with copper-bell-like eyes, a high nose, and a wide mouth.
If Demon Eye Heavenly King were here, he would recognize that this knife was from the Battle of Zhuolu. It would be discovered that the legendary knife of Shura was the Chiyou Blade.
The young Bewitching Demon had heard that Shura was invincible with one knife, and no one, whether in the lawful or evil faction, could match him in a one-on-one fight.
But no one knew what Shura's knife looked like. This knife had been sleeping with Shura in the holy mountain for decades and had never appeared in the world. Whether it was the second entry into Kyoto or this demigod instance dungeon, Shura had not used it.
Now, after decades of being sealed, the Chiyou Blade had been unsheathed, and the first person it pierced was Ling Tuo.
Ling Tuo roared in pain, his expression twisted and ferocious, as if some kind of poison had been extracted from the knife, making it difficult for even a demigod like him to bear the corresponding pain.
The moment the blade pierced his heart, his body could no longer move. His internal organs seemed to be adsorbed by the magic knife, and his blood essence and spiritual power, like a burst of floodwaters, surged outwards.
This was one of the functions of the Chiyou Blade.
"You asked me why I never used this knife." Shura, whose skin was as dark as iron and as towering as a pagoda, held the knife and stood behind Ling Tuo and said indifferently, "Now I'll answer you, because it's for killing you. I deliberately starved it for twenty years, the more hungry and the more crazy, only in this way can I kill you with one blow."
Ling Tuo struggled to twist his neck and looked behind him. Blood seeped from his seven orifices, miserable and terrifying. He said word by word, "Why, why?"
Shura's expression did not change, and he said indifferently, "The true Sun Lord I supported was your father."
