Chapter 2319 Hellstar!

The air was burning, the earth was shaking, and the dark clouds were roaring. Even the splendid buildings in the royal palace seemed to be falling apart into broken pieces that were swallowed by the battlefield!

By paying their lives, several experts in the Nascent Soul Stage finally bought enough time for the three experts at the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage to retrieve their Colossi.

It was like three chaotic swirls suddenly appeared from the void, spreading out into magnificent giants that were clearer and clearer.

When the space ripples gradually dispersed, the swirls turned into three ultimate slaughter weapons in different shapes but equally appalling!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The flames of light unleashed by the power rune arrays of the three Colossi broke the night sky of infinite darkness. The earsplitting roars they let out were also shocking the air of the entire royal palace.

Through the enhancement of their Colossi, the three experts at the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage were finally able to completely suppress Li Linghai’s dark air.

At this moment, “Devilish Abyss”, “Acyclic Earth”, and “Star Breaker” finally revealed their most aggressive form. Passing the many experts in the Nascent Soul Stage, they attacked Li Linghai with their full strength at the same time.

Many experts in the Nascent Soul Stage involved in this operation were also equipped with inferior Colossi. Those inferior Colossi were mostly made of the broken parts of the original Colossi after fierce battles or even installed with more than fifty percent of magical equipment units that were crafted by human beings. Naturally, their battle efficiency was not as good as the original goods left from the primeval battlefields. But however inferior they were, they were Colossi after all!

For a moment, chaotic swirls were surging out of the void nonstop. Under the illumination of the colorful light, iron giants appeared one after another, turning the center of the royal palace into the place where the densest Colossi in the entire universe could be seen!

However...

The Nascent Soul Stage experts’ concerns just now slowed down their attacks for a moment, which left a tiny gap on the supposedly impenetrable siege.

In the meantime, “Acyclic Earth” Yun Kuohai summoned his Colossus after retreating quickly. He seemed to be ten times more daunting than before, but his retreat left enough time for Li Linghai to perform her skills too.

Therefore, while many Colossi leaped out of the void, the two black holes on Li Linghai’s face had spread out to the maximum too, and they almost swallowed her entire face. Her arms were entirely mired in black streaks while they cramped weirdly in the midair as she cast her spells.

A spell was nothing more than a gesture of order to activate a certain field.

The fields that were being activated by Li Linghai at this moment, however, filled the entire royal palace!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The violent beasts’ roars below the ground were immediately a hundred times louder than before. The cracks that were as dense as a spider web all expanded into dark gorges and abysses. All the gorges and abysses were melting at a visible speed, swallowing the whole ground and transforming it into a... black hole more than five kilometers in diameter, a terrifying “crater”!

“How is it possible!”

Everybody was shocked and intimidated.

The earth below them was no more. Looking downward, they could only see the black fog rolling like boiling ink, as if the gate to hell had been opened and countless monsters were about to lunge out.

Not only were their bare eyes unable to see through the truth deep inside the “crater”, but even the crystal cameras as well as the many kinds of detection magical equipment on the crystal suits and the Colossi, including the senses of the experts in the Nascent Soul Stage and the Divinity Transformation Stage, could not reach the bottom of the crater through the hundreds of meters of black fog.

But it was absolutely impossible!

In the past five hundred years, the four Kurfürst families had been trying to unveil the secrets of the “underground palace”. Although they did not excavate the royal palace for a large-scale development due to technological limitations and their competition, they had still scanned everything several hundred meters into the ground clearly as preparatory work.

Even though there were the underground parts below every building in the palace, including the secret tunnels and arsenals that were as complicated as mazes, it was impossible that such a huge, terrifying space just appeared out of nowhere.

Where were the buildings and rocks that weighed billions of tons a moment ago? How could they just vanish?

If there was such a huge empty chamber below the ground, how could it have avoided their attention for five hundred years? Were they all blind?

Unless—

Unless there were really nine “world fragments” below the royal palace, which were connected to the three-dimensional universe in mysterious, cutting-edge technologies! They were activated just now and swallowed all the rocks, foundations, and underground buildings!

In other words, the swamp-like abyss did not really lead to the underground world but to the nine world fragments that Blackstar the Great had carefully prepared a thousand years ago!

Everybody thought quickly. Those who were keener had realized what was going on. Recalling Li Linghai’s weird way of addressing herself and her unbelievable strength, they were so shocked that they almost cried out aloud.

Those who were less responsive, however, were still in ignorance. Staring at the abyss below their feet, they managed to float in the midair by boosting their power rune arrays, but they were at a loss of what to do.

The underground black hole that was five kilometers in diameter was erupting tremendous black fog like a volcano eruption, enshrouding the entire sky and earth. It had also generated a weird force of attraction that was dragging all of them into the black hole.

They could not even see their own fingers in the darkness. Their communication with the outside world had been cut off too. They seemed to have been snatched into a cage that could never be broken.

The penetrative black fog, on the other hand, was also corroding their spiritual shields nonstop and sabotaging the joints on the Colossi. Their vitality fields were greatly disrupted too.

It was not just a mysterious, unpredictable dark space below the ground, but also a ubiquitous, terrifying array. They had even lost their senses of direction, and they did not know where to run even if they intended to escape!

The three experts at the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage were naturally among the people who had the highest computational ability and fastest response.

The moment Li Linghai turned from white to black, they had already felt a vague alarm. The infinite dominating air around Li Linghai gave them quite a familiar feeling.

It was also one of the reasons why they backed off instead of fighting Li Linghai with their lives.

At this moment, associating Li Linghai’s weird behavior and the uncanny changes in the royal palace, they couldn’t help but come up with a horrifying name.

Could it be... him?

The three experts at the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage found themselves caught in an extremely awkward and dangerous situation.

It was something that they never expected when they accepted the mission that they thought was absolutely riskless.

“Kill her! She will not let go of you! She will certainly execute every last member of the four Kurfürst families! Don’t have any illusion! She’s certainly going to kill us all!”

“Silver Fox” Li Jiande was perhaps the most conscious one here. He was still struggling in the overwhelming black fog and roaring futilely.

But the three experts at the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage were naturally on full alert when they had just fallen into such a weird “underground black hole”. Who was willing to charge at Li Linghai, or... him, without caring about their own life?

Besides, the moment the underground black hole took shape, Li Linghai had disappeared.

Under the cover of the falling rocks, the spreading dust, and the erupting black fog, her air had been entirely concealed, and she ran out of the siege in advance, escaping to the deepest part of the underground black hole.

But her mad and dominating laughter was still echoing from the deepest part of the black hole, or rather, from every direction of the black fog. “You could’ve chosen heaven, but you’ve come to hell! Fighting your emperor at the royal palace is the greatest mistake that you’ve ever made. It’s time to regret what you did. I will only keep three of you alive. Three!”

Her laughter was still echoing when the thickest metal tentacle suddenly extended out of the black fog and darted at the dozens of Immortal Cultivators in the Nascent Soul Stage without a sound. Before anybody realized what was going on, it had already tied up one of the Immortal Cultivators together with his crystal suit!

The metal tentacle was about one meter in diameter and filled with dense thorns and suction discs on the surface. When it strangled the victim like a boa, the Immortal Cultivator in the Nascent Soul Stage couldn’t struggle at all before he was dragged into the fog.

The sounds of metals being torn apart, bones being minced, and flesh exploding immediately came from the fog.

Then, a cluster of plasma mixed with metals, broken bones, and blood was spat out from the darkness.

Li Linghai laughed aloud. “Another traitor whose family will be wiped out! Whoever wants to surrender, help me remember the names of those who have died. Remind me later that their entire families are to be executed!”

The devastating picture and the creepy laughter made all the experts in the Nascent Soul Stage palpitate although they were all seasoned warriors. Losing the courage to march forward, they wasted no time hiding behind the Colossi of the four experts in the Divinity Transformation Stage.

“Don’t believe her! She has already been exhausted and cannot persist for long!”

“Silver Fox” Li Jiande roared, infuriated by their uselessness, “Go now! Attack together! She will certainly be suppressed!”

“Haha. Hahahaha!”

Li Linghai laughed with utmost disdain. The black fog was suddenly rolling ten times faster and dispersing, revealing Li Linghai in a Colossus before everyone again!

Everybody including the four experts in the Divinity Transformation Stage gasped hard.

What a weird and terrifying Colossus it was!

At first look, it did not have a regular torso that looked like a human being’s at all. Instead, it resembled an enormous iron ball fifty meters in diameter.

Around the iron ball, six gigantic but twisted faces had been engraved. Some were solemn, some angry, and some mysterious. Six faces and six enormous swirls overlapped and covered the surface of the iron ball.

A hundred metal tentacles were also waving crazily around the iron ball. Each of the tentacles could be stretched to hundreds of meters away freely. It was exactly one of such tentacles that swallowed an Immortal Cultivator in the Nascent Soul Stage a moment ago.

The main color of the “Colossus” was the depressing dark, but the shining purple flames around it enshrouded it in the most intimidating aura. The moment it showed up, the overwhelming air spread out to the entire dark space again!

“Come on.”

Li Linghai said casually, “Whoever wants to be the first victim of ‘Hellstar’ after a thousand years, just come!”
