Chapter 947: Black Sun Ritual
Osaka.
In the sky above the city that had fallen into ruins, Lin Qiye slowly sheathed the [Zhanbai] and let out a long breath, a look of exhaustion appearing in his eyes.
He looked down at the city below him, a deep black blade mark intertwined into a large circle with a radius of about two kilometers, with intricate patterns spread out within the circle, dazzling the eyes.
This was Lin Qiye’s first time drawing such a wide range of magic formations, and it was also the first time he had truly used a “forbidden spell”, which was one of the few forbidden spells in Merlin’s Secret Code of Forbidden Spells that Lin Qiye was able to use right now.
”Almost there ……”
Lin Qiye muttered.
At the same time, Black Hitomi and the other three caretakers dragged the bodies of the two Corpse Beasts and returned to Lin Qiye’s side, placing them, along with the two Corpse Beasts that had just been decapitated by Yuzuru Takeru Shiraito, all in the very center of the forbidden spell as per his instructions.
Although these corpse beasts were contaminated by the red moon, they contained a large amount of divine power residue after all, so it was just right to use them as fuel for this forbidden spell, and as for the residual red moon power in them, as long as they weren’t used to carry out a sublime summoning, they wouldn’t have too much of a negative impact.
Lin Qiye returned to the McLaren, reached out and gently tapped on the body, the pixel-built body quickly disintegrated, and a thick, silver-colored square monument, heavy from the chassis slammed to the ground, emitting a dull sound.
This piece of monument length and width are not more than one meter, but do not know what material composition, heavy incomparable, the surface engraved with dense mysterious symbols, as heavenly books.
Is this the [Heart of Purification]?……
Lin Qiye placed his palm, pasted it on the surface of the square stele and poured his spiritual energy into it, and the mysterious words on the surface of the square stele instantly brightened up.
A sacred and pure breath, immediately from the surface of the square monument emanated, as the naked eye can not see the ripples, rapid ripples from the ruins, with a shocking speed to the entire “human circle” spread.
In an instant, the corpse beasts that had landed in various parts of the “Human Circle” all looked as if they had sensed something, and violently turned back to look in the direction where the [Heart of Purification] was located, and a light of loathing blossomed in their reddish eyes.
They opened their mouths and hissed angrily, then left behind the city that had been reduced to rubble, as well as the crowd that was desperately fleeing, and hurriedly raced towards Osaka!
Successive roars came from the distance, and Lin Qiye, who was standing in the very center of Osaka, narrowed his eyes slightly.
At the end of the horizon, three Corpse Beasts were approaching from different directions, trampling on the shattered city like raging beasts.
The corpse beasts were distributed in different locations, and the distance from Osaka was also near and far, and from the moment the [Purifying Heart] was turned on, the endless waves of corpse beasts would come here in waves after waves.
As he watched the three corpse beasts approaching rapidly, Lin Qiye took a deep breath, his eyes haloed with a touch of magical light.
He opened his mouth, and an obscure and low chanting sound came out from his throat, echoing above the ruins.
With the sound of the chant, the immense magic formation in the center of the city began to gradually light up along the black traces on the periphery, and strands of crimson magical light converged towards the center, outlining the outline of a massive sphere suspended over the city.
With the infusion of magical light, the huge sphere became more and more solid, gradually evolving into a round of hundreds of meters high black sun, hanging under the dim sky dome.
Terrifying aura fluctuations suddenly descended!
Forbidden spell, [Black Sun Ritual].
”What is that?!”
”The sun! A black sun!!!”
”Oh my god, what’s wrong with this world? Another monster, another black sun ……”
”Hahahahaha! Destroy it! Everything is destroyed!”
”You guys look! There’s a crimson figure standing under that black sun!”
”……”
The appearance of this giant black sun instantly attracted the attention of everyone within Osaka, and even some of the remote cities around them could see the light emanating from this miniature sun from afar, and a look of fear and worry appeared in their eyes.
Lin Qiye’s chanting became more and more urgent, and the magic array engraved in the ruins brightened to the extreme.
In the next moment, the surface of the black sun that hung high in the sky suddenly contracted, and a hideous crimson vertical eye blossomed, emitting a bizarre red light!
Lin Qiye ended his chanting, his face slightly blanched as he calmly stretched out his hand and pointed towards the three corpse beasts that were rapidly approaching in the distance.
”Extinguish.”
Boom-!
A terrifying crimson beam burst out from the vertical eye, piercing through nothingness in an instant and landing in front of the three corpse beasts, a terrifying explosion erupted, and the red light reflected the distant sky into the color of blood.
The light dispersed, dust drifted down, and the bodies of the three corpse beasts had been blasted into pieces and disappeared.
A single attack had killed three Immeasurable Realm Corpse Beasts.
Before the surrounding people who saw this scene could let out a gasp of surprise, Lin Qiye turned his head towards the two corpse beasts that came running from the west and faintly spoke:
”Extinguish.”
The vertical eyes on the surface of that black sun turned sharply in the direction of the corpse beasts, and crimson beams shot out, once again killing the two corpse beasts that were attracted by the [Heart of Purification].
”Extinguish.”
”Extinguish.”
”……”
As Lin Qiye’s calm voice rang out one after another, the black sun that hung high above his head was like a tireless turret of destruction, frantically shooting out crimson rays of light, killing the waves of corpse beasts from all directions.
It only took one hit to kill a corpse beast of the “Limitless” realm; only a few corpse beasts of the “Klein” realm that appeared out of nowhere required three to four hits.
Every time a corpse beast was killed, Black Hitomi and the other three caretakers would quickly go and collect the corpse beast’s limbs and pile them back up in the center of the magic formation, recycling them to be used as forbidden spell fuel for the [Black Sun Sacrifice] to continue its voyage.
Although Lin Qiye’s own realm was only “limitless”, with the spell formation set up in advance, along with the corpses containing huge amounts of energy as fuel, the number of corpses that had died under his command was climbing rapidly!
As Merlin had said, magicians, what they were best at was positional warfare.
The combination of [Heart of Purification] and [Black Sun Ritual] had made the center of Osaka, the center of the city, a millstone of death for the Corpse Beasts.
However, Lin Qiye knew very well in his heart that this seemingly dominant situation wouldn’t last long.
As long as the Red Moon’s contamination was still eroding the Eight Length Mirror, there would be a steady stream of Corpse Beasts descending, and the speed at which the [Black Sun Ritual] killed the Corpse Beasts was nowhere near as fast as the Corpse Beasts descending, and as time passed, the number of Corpse Beasts that were besieging the place at the same time would increase dramatically.
Once this number exceeded the load of the [Black Sun Ritual], it would only be a matter of time before this place was overrun by the corpse beasts.
