Chapter 159 Black Tide Eruption
"Hiss~"
In the head-on collision, the swordsman Carlo did not gain any advantage and did not dare to continue fighting. He suddenly retreated dozens of meters and avoided Mafa's iron-clad punch.
He looked at the two swords in his hands again and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Because the bronze golden body was not cut just now, the sword blade was shaking slightly, and it was making a sad sound.
"It really was a worthwhile trip..."
The legendary demon hunter saw his attack being blocked so calmly. Not only did he not retreat at all, but his fighting spirit became stronger and stronger. He murmured to himself: "Tsk tsk... I can finally have a good fight!"
At this moment, the fighting grandmaster Rocky Refar also flew backwards, crashed into a big tree, and vomited several mouthfuls of turbid blood, before he eliminated the strange power that had entered his body.
After he spat out a mouthful of blood, a sinister smile appeared on his lips: "This barbarian old man is really tough. However, he must have been seriously injured after taking my punch."
After a pause, he looked at the skinny old man on the altar and said, "Carlo, have you noticed that the old man seems unable to leave the altar?"
The swordsman Carlo obviously noticed this and said coldly: "Then force him out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the legendary's fighting spirit surged and he suddenly entered the magic release state.
"Magic Release: Garuda!"
In the next moment, he saw the shadow of a demon with an eagle's body and a human face appear behind him.
It was the sixty-first god among the seventy-two generals, the [Feather God] Garuda!
In a blink of an eye, Carlo's aura surged several times.
A closer look revealed that a layer of white frost had formed on the famous sword [Frost Flower] in his left hand, while the [Blue Ghost] in his right hand was surrounded by a faint blue cold light...
The sword light extended one foot beyond the target, and the state had reached its peak.
He saw his two swords cross each other, and he suddenly thrust forward to slash with all his strength, chanting softly: "Ghost Song: Great Cross Shining!"
"Haha, a confrontation forced you to use this move?!"
Looking at the posture of the attack, Rocky Refar on the side was not to be outdone, with fighting spirit flowing through his body, and his muscles were more like steel, emitting black light.
He kicked the ground hard, there was a "pop" sound in the air, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
On the altar, Marfa was covered in a bronze-gold sheen, showing no fear at all.
Facing the surprise attack of two powerful men, he controlled the weather with a staff in his left hand, and fought against two top-level strong men with his right hand. He caught the sword with his bare hands, and his bronze body withstood the punches.
The collision of fists and feet made a sound like the ringing of bells.
Suddenly, there was a howling wind on the ring, and the swords and golden bodies collided, causing sparks to fly.
But no one noticed that with every crack on the altar at Marfa's feet, the black air in the pit not far away became thicker...
…
The great witch priest Mafa was like a demon descending from the sky, and he withstood the attacks of two top-level extraordinary beings by himself. This also gave the warriors in the tribe some breathing space.
Soon, the melodious sound of ocarina rang out in the tribe. Snakes, insects, rats and ants in the caves under the thatched huts came out of the holes and rushed towards the enemies on the hillside.
Flower snakes, red-tailed centipedes, scorpions, poisonous frogs, spotted pythons...
The Coleman tribe has the custom of raising these insects and snakes. Now they have come out in droves, covering the entire mountain and field, which is really frightening.
The group of people on the cliff were not afraid at all. After everyone finished chanting the spell, they descended from the sky with wind and rain, and a huge flood!
Earth, wood, wind, fire, thunder, lightning... high-level spells of various types exploded like fireworks, and high-level magic groups swept everything with an invincible posture.
At the moment of life and death, even those wounded soldiers of Coleman who could not fight did not give up resistance. Instead, they knelt down towards the altar line and prayed devoutly.
"Great God Morogos, please protect our people..."
With the blessing of the will of tens of thousands of people, everyone saw that the luster on the body of the great witch priest Mafa was visibly getting brighter and brighter.
At this moment, even the dumbest person can see that the reason why Mafa is so powerful is that he must be blessed by some mysterious power!
Bazel figured out something and said in surprise, "Is this... a secret method of faith? That's impossible... Does the 'Morogos God' really still exist?"
Ryan finally believed what Marfa said, "God's will is still there."
With his current combat power, he is no longer a mortal. It would be strange if he doesn’t have the power of a demon!
And at this time,
Mafa's aura has reached its peak.
After "Calling the Wind" and "Calling the Rain"...
Above the clouds, it seemed as if countless lightning snakes were shining.
The high priest Coleman seemed to have sensed something, looked in the direction of Ryan Bazel, and shouted: "Heavenly Thunder!"
This statement clearly hints at something!
He is going to fight to the death!
"Heavenly thunder", "Heavenly thunder", "Heavenly thunder"...
As soon as this spell was uttered, the purple lightning in the sky became more violent, and the brilliant thunder actually condensed into a gigantic lightning snake a thousand meters long, which was about to fall from the sky in the next moment...
…
"Ryan boy, let's go, that old man is ready to fight to the death."
Seeing this scene, Basel also sighed.
On the battlefield, high-level warriors killed low-level warriors like grass. A high-level magic group of hundreds of people was like a sharp knife, piercing the Zhongting tribe all over its body, but no one could do anything to them.
In this situation, the top fighting forces of the five major families in Glory City have come out in full force, and it is definitely not something that a single Coleman witch priest can stop. In the end, both sides may suffer losses, but the Coleman clan will definitely be wiped out.
"Um."
Ryan said nothing more, nor did he watch the fighting in the tribe any longer.
He followed Bazel silently and left quickly.
This was the plan that Mafa had told him at the beginning. Sooner or later, they would shed their last drop of blood to protect the temple.
Probably, it’s today.
…
Dark clouds covered the canyon where the Temple Tribe was located. Purple lightning poured down, crackling... High-level spells and powerful killing moves emerged one after another. The battle between the two sides had reached its most intense moment.
But no one noticed that as time passed, the fierce battle impact had caused the white stone altar engraved with various ancient Monk words under Mafa's feet to crack into pieces, and the black air in the sinkhole became increasingly thicker.
…
on the other hand.
Ryan followed Bazel and quickly shuttled through the forest. They planned to head south to meet up with Old Man Tust and his men.
The two were walking at a fast pace, and in a blink of an eye they were already at a valley one or two kilometers away.
But suddenly,
Bazel frowned, stopped, and asked, "Ryan, do you feel that the ground has become higher?"
“Eh…”
After hearing this, Ryan realized that something seemed to be wrong.
He had been on this road before. It was clearly a flat road, so why did it feel like climbing an uphill slope now?
Although that angle was temporarily undetectable, the two extraordinary beings with keen perception were able to distinguish it immediately.
Then, while they were talking, they were horrified to find that not only was it uphill, but the slope was getting steeper and steeper!
The trembling sensation under the feet became stronger and stronger, making it difficult for people to stand steadily.
Ryan: "What's going on? An earthquake?"
In his opinion, even if there was a fight over there, it would not be possible to have an impact so far away. Only natural disasters such as earthquakes could cause such exaggerated changes in the terrain.
“It doesn’t look like an earthquake.”
Basel's face was full of doubt, and he was a little confused when he saw such a strange situation.
I was walking just fine, but the ground suddenly tilted?
In just these three or two seconds, the ground's tilt angle has risen from more than ten degrees to the current forty or fifty degrees.
Ryan felt that something was wrong, because the ground was not tilted locally, but the angles of all the ground visible around him were rising at the same time, as if they were about to stand upright and close in the middle.
The birds and animals in the forest are most sensitive to these abnormalities. Just when Ryan and Basel stopped to observe, they suddenly saw various birds in the forest fluttering towards the sky.
Chirp...squeak...squeak...
There were so many of them that it seemed as if something terrible was about to happen.
Although he didn't expect what happened, Bazel's face suddenly changed: "Maybe something serious has happened, let's get out of here!"
But it's too late!
At this moment, there was a sudden explosion like a volcanic eruption, shaking the earth and making people deaf.
Ryan and the other man's attention was naturally attracted to the explosion, which was in the direction of the "Eye of Hell"!
Take another look,
In the distance behind him, a black cloud rose into the sky as if a volcano had erupted.
The black gas was not like the usual thin black gauze, but was turbid and sticky like asphalt that could be seen by the naked eye. In a blink of an eye, the black gas spread out, spreading like a tide, and instantly covered the sky and the sun.
The light between heaven and earth dimmed in an instant, as if night had fallen.
Although they were confused, the two did not stop.
As Bazel ran, he asked, "Why did the black gas in the pit erupt?"
When Ryan saw this scene, a terrifying thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he blurted out: "The [Black Tide ] has erupted!"
Marfa said that the outbreak of the "Black Tide" was inevitable, and Ryan was mentally prepared.
He had guessed before that since the prophecy passed down by the Coleman clan said that the "Black Tide" was related to the seal of the "Eye of Hell", then even if there was any movement, it would most likely be related to the tiankeng black hole.
Now seeing that so much black gas is inexplicably gushing out of the crater, the most likely possibility is that a black tide has erupted.
"What exactly is the Kuroshio?"
Ryan had a bad feeling in his heart.
If his guess was right, this would be a sign of the Black Tide erupting.
Does this mean that the prophecy has come true?
So what “great terror” is about to befall the world? Is it coming too?
What exactly is the “Great Terror”?
But what is this ground turbulence about?
Could it be that a large amount of black gas rushed out and caused negative pressure underground, resulting in partial collapse and deformation of the ground?
"Oops!"
Basel's perception was much stronger than Ryan's. The fatal sense of crisis made him ignore everything and he simply pulled Ryan and fled rapidly in the direction of the black gas.
But it's too late!
An even more terrifying scene happened before my eyes.
The ground, which was at a slight angle just now, suddenly became more and more inclined, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
At first, the two felt like they were climbing a slope, but after a few breaths, it felt like they were vertically climbing.
They found that the ground, which was supposed to be flat, was now upright at 90 degrees, and the angle was still expanding!
"What the hell! This forest is fucking alive!"
Basel seemed to sense something, and this legend who had lived for more than two hundred years was frightened to death.
He had already transformed into a werewolf, and he cursed angrily, his speed had already reached the extreme. Even with Ryan, the burden, his figure was as fast as a shadow, running fast on those large tree trunks that were already 90 degrees perpendicular to the "rock wall"...
"Living things? Holy shit...isn't this forest a giant Venus flytrap?"
Ryan finally understood and his face turned pale.
Although his vision was limited by the fog, he could see that the ground within a radius of dozens of kilometers centered on the tiankeng stood up, just like a Venus flytrap that was catching its prey!
But the high priest Mafa never mentioned this matter, and it was obvious that the Coleman people didn't know that there was such a big creature underground.
Things kept falling from the "sky", stones, leaves, and all kinds of panicked monsters...
Now, except for the birds at the edge of the forest that flew away, no one without wings could escape!
Bazel was also extremely fast, and was about to reach the edge of the high wall. But at this moment, countless spikes suddenly emerged from the forest, densely packed, like a mouthful of teeth, slowly closing...
