Chapter 1806: Chapter 428: Solar Radiance
The clothes on Meng Xizhou no longer emitted a glow, but they restored the texture of satin.
However, her hair, eyes, and fingertips all shone brightly, making her resemble a sun.
She successfully embarked on the path to refining the Light Fire...
Completely refining this fire seed would still take some time, but at this moment, the power she wielded was already comparable to the three generals of North Continent.
Even possessing just a strand of the origin power of the fire seed counted as total transcendence!
Just a few hours ago, the two had a brief Spiritual Link, although it didn’t yield any useful information... it was at least "heartwarming."
The encounter now appeared somewhat bloody.
Because in the cage, there was not only light but also scattered blood pearls, all from Gu Shen’s blood.
Gu Nanfeng gripped the long knife tightly, staring fixedly at Meng Xizhou’s left hand.
The young woman was holding a blood-drenched head...
Gu Nanfeng’s throat quivered.
In the end, he said nothing but delivered a long-repressed stroke!
"Boom!"
This blow shattered the withered, suspended wooden cage, innumerable winds swirled, transforming into an extremely sharp sword energy. Amid the fierce tearing of the Skytop, the scene deeply hidden in the light was completely revealed to every Transcendent in the Eastern Continent Fleet!
"Is that... Gu Shen!?"
Luo Yu sprang to his feet.
Not just him.
Everyone in the Eastern Continent Fleet clearly saw the head Meng Xizhou held, and everyone’s mind was filled with a buzzing sound, turning blank.
The sword energy spanned thousands of meters, slashing all the glory in the void to pieces.
But this sword could not harm Meng Xizhou at all.
The Goddess, who had initially refined the Light Fire, was wrapped in intense light, with one hand holding the head and the other behind her back. The slashed sword energy melted away before it even fell, it simply was not in the same realm of power.
"Boom boom boom!"
Without orders, the Eastern Continent Fleet directly began shelling.
A portion of the Black Silver brought back by Gu Shen had been made into Black Silver Bombs, a weapon kept at the bottom of the chest, rarely used, yet in the first round of volleys, they were fully unleashed!
This round of shelling directly engulfed Meng Xizhou.
The Goddess maintained her pose, her gaze cold... When faced with this grand barrage, she merely stepped forward.
The Black Silver Bombs melted hundreds of meters away by the majestic light, the strong-logical bombs, though ferocious in power, in front of the "Light Origin," could not even get close to Meng Xizhou’s garments, the sun suddenly radiated light, engulfing the glory of the Eastern Continent Fleet’s attack, counterattacking!
Luo Yu felt his eyes turn entirely silver white.
Everyone else felt the same.
The taste of "blindness" was transmitted vividly to every fleet Transcendent’s Heart Lake, staring directly into the sun brought "side effects," not just blindness, but their spiritual power couldn’t capture any movement, the intense sound of bomb explosions detonated instantly, yet the world seemed to become extremely silent.
The large Eastern Continent Fleet was forced into this extreme silver white and silent environment.
Dozens of seconds later.
The light dissipated... Luo Yu vigorously rubbed his eyes, looking at the familiar silhouette leaning against the Green Silver Glass at the front of the main boat.
These dozens of seconds saw many events.
Including but not limited to the confrontation between Gu Nanfeng and Meng Xizhou, As the strongest in the Eastern Continent Fleet, Gu Nanfeng kept striking even after the sun’s glow exploded, though a super-strong person mastering the origin power can crush the Titled, it doesn’t mean they wouldn’t be hurt by the Titled, thus facing Gu Nanfeng’s relentless knife attacks, Meng Xizhou had no choice but to intervene.
And this was the final result after intervention.
The Green Silver Glass shattered into pieces, the wooden knife in Gu Nanfeng’s hand also broke apart, his entire aura extremely weakened, but he wasn’t dead, just temporarily unable to muster the strength for a second strike.
"Young Master!"
Luo Yu shouted angrily, rushing forward immediately, noticing the Young Master’s eyes shut tight, bloody tears flowing out.
One of the costs of staring at the sun is blindness.
Others in the fleet only saw the glow explode from miles away.
While the Young Master was at the center of the explosion, he truly was the one directly looking at the sun!
"I... I’m fine."
Gu Nanfeng’s weak voice rasped, waving his hand, "Where is Meng Xizhou?"
"Meng Xizhou?"
Luo Yu hesitated, looking back, this void of the Old World was cleaned thoroughly by the sun’s glow, whether the scattered dried branches or the light fragments left after the fall of the Light God’s Seat were engulfed by the previous glow... As the glow dissipated, those traces vanished accordingly.
The initiator was even lost without a trace.
"She... left."
Luo Yu, filled with sadness and anger, veins bulging on his forehead.
"Left..."
Gu Nanfeng raised his head, the blood tears from the sun’s glow streaming down his cheeks, seemingly with a hint of relief on his face.
With Meng Xizhou’s power, she could effortlessly slaughter the entire Eastern Continent Fleet.
But she did not.
"Luo Yu, hurry back to Changye, I have urgent tasks to attend..."
Gu Nanfeng coughed painfully, extending a hand to clutch his chest, there Meng Xizhou had struck, still faintly hurting now.
Gu Nanfeng gripped Luo Yu’s hand, firmly advising: "Remember, return through Gu Castle Fortress, not from Cicada Wing City Fortress, sailing west is quicker."
"Young Master..."
Luo Yu wanted to say more but ultimately swallowed it all.
Positioning Gu Castle, the Eastern Continent Fleet sped south-west, this collapsed void filled with dissipated glow, returned to darkness.
Many things had happened here.
Yet it seemed as though nothing had happened.
Occasionally, one could see a distant glimmer, coming from the outermost part of the Umbrella’s defense line.
For better fortress surveillance over the Old World’s dynamics, Deep Sea deployed a batch of "Heavenly Eye," extending into the unknown Old World as much as possible... This particular void happened to be the farthest realm spied by "Heavenly Eye."
