Chapter 952: Chapter 501: Cleansing Starry Sky City (Part 1)
Royal City.
White Tower.
Observatory.
In the Eye of the Present World, made of the rarest Spiritual Diamonds, the Great Prophet Iyeta and dozens of Stargazers, along with the Tower’s Observers, are observing the Spirit Realm from their respective spiritual positions.
The "Eye of the Present World" is the core of the White Tower, commonly known as the "Great Eye."
It is the strongest viewing mirror, extremely sensitive to abnormal changes.
With its help, the observatories of the White Tower can directly observe changes in the Spirit Realm, discern star phases, predict future weather, and guard against Spirit Realm Monster attacks.
And the moment when the stars are shining is the second-best opportunity after the Bright Festival for observation, when the Spirit Realm is penetrated by starlight, sparkling and bright.
Like a dreamlike crystal world, it is a great opportunity for them to observe the High Level Spirit Realm beyond the Inner Spirit Realm and Outer Spirit Realm.
"Hmm, I see the River of Eternal Death, that vast River of Death spanning the sky, not knowing what lies dormant in the depths of the River of Death..."
"Ah... the City of Chaos, everything here is broken..."
"Wow, is this the Light Country? Why is it so dim?"
"Death Castle! I found it, Death Castle, the Death Announcing Birds are flocking, they are fighting..."
"... What is that?"
"Heavens, what did I see? Darkness, endless darkness, Lord Iyeta, Lord Iyeta..."
Suddenly, a shrill scream echoed in the Great Eye.
A Stargazer, his entire body boiling with black gas, staggered back a few steps and fell to the ground.
White-robed Iyeta swiftly approached, white light flickering in his hand, waving it forward, dispersing the black gas with strong Spiritual Energy, but the Stargazer’s body had already turned putrid, beyond recognition.
"What happened?" Iyeta sternly asked, "What did you do?"
The Stargazer’s vocal cords were hoarse, his eyes bulging, and blood gushing from the corners of his mouth.
"In-infinite terrifying spirit... I-I saw it, in..."
He struggled to make a sound, each word like swirling in minced flesh.
Iyeta leaned down, bringing his ear close, but in the next instant, the Stargazer’s flesh and blood burst, veins popped out, and his eyes exploded, his gaping mouth fiercely biting toward Iyeta.
Amid cries of surprise, Iyeta swiftly moved his face away, retreating rapidly.
The Stargazer, blood gushing from his entire body, made guttural noises, pouncing at Iyeta.
Though Iyeta was the Great Prophet, his combat abilities were not weak, and with a reverse palm strike, he hit the Stargazer’s forehead, his powerful Spiritual Energy instantly shattering his soul.
The Stargazer collapsed to the ground, blood soaking through his robe.
A foul stench wafted from the corpse; at some point, his entire body’s flesh had already decayed and putrefied.
"He’s already turned into a monster... just the transformation time was short, the flesh wasn’t completely corrupted, but his soul had already gone mad..."
Another Stargazer incredulously looked at the corpse on the ground.
"What happened? How did he get corrupted?"
Iyeta knelt down, lightly touched the corpse with a finger, and said gravely, "His spirit was severely impacted. Possibly his Spiritual Vision observed a terrifying high-position presence. The extremely strong position difference not only impacted his spirit but also induced a mutation."
"How could that be possible?"
A Tower Observer was shocked and said, "The Great Eye has an extremely strong protective effect, and there was no contact with Black Fog, how could it induce a mutation?"
Iyeta’s face was extremely grim, saying, "Immediately preserve all observation states on his spiritual position, from when he entered, I will go find the teacher."
Another Stargazer said, "But, Lord Meredith is preparing the Source Prophecy, already at a critical stage..."
Iyeta paused for a second, then decisively said, "Still, I must go."
He turned around and walked away from the Great Eye with large strides, leaving a group of Stargazers looking at each other.

Starry Sky City.
Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.
As Rod opened his eyes, he saw Molly entering the door, followed by Mephit, Anna, and Kashan.
The Black Battle Group was all present, hmm, I just noticed they’re all girls, I need to recruit some guys in the future, this is a battle group, not my harem... Rod coughed and asked, "What’s the matter?"
Molly said with a serious expression, "Something happened, the seventh squad led by Lord Chucher went missing in action while fighting in the commercial district, due to the complexity of Starry Sky City’s commercial district, I’ve decided for the Black Battle Group and the ninth squad to assist together."
"Very good!"
Rod leapt up from the bed, putting on his Guardian Robe with an exceedingly handsome motion.
"Let’s go."
Before the voice fell, he flew out the door.
"Molly, with you overseeing Starry Sky City’s battlefield, I feel reassured, please await our good news."
The voice gradually faded away.
The group was stunned for a few seconds before realizing Rod had already left.
Anna instantly transformed into a Centaur, shouting, "Wait for me!"
She took Kashan with her and chased after him.
"Rod!" Kashan shouted, "If you don’t come up with new ways to irritate me today, I will hammer you!"
Molly turned around and said faintly, "Miss Mephit, let’s go."
Mephit walked out of the room silently, with a peculiar Divine Light swirling in her silver-white eyes.
"He has grown stronger again..."
She murmured in a voice that only she could hear.
"Why..."
——
The commercial district is located to the southeast of Starry Sky City, twelve thousand yards away, at the junction of the east and south, a crucial node for deep cleaning.
This area is very dangerous, filled with various deformed monsters, so the stronger seventh team led by Chucher was sent for cleaning.
