Chapter 2671 Checking
The Bone Dragon escorted the player team below as they quickly retreated, leaving a large number of Licker creatures on the frontlines.
"Hahaha! This is awesome!"
The players on the back of the Bone Dragon laughed joyfully, their rewards piling up.
At that moment, the task hint for absorbing dimensional strength kept refreshing continuously.
One of the player commanders happily approached Shi Lipeng and grinned, asking, "Master Shi, are we really retreating this quickly?"
"Yeah, Mr. Fang has sent word that we should withdraw immediately."
"How's Mr. Fang doing? He kept everything under wraps so well before. Can we finally hear the details?"
"Well, Mr. Fang is still in action. I can't say exactly what will happen next."
A few minutes ago, the stone Fang Heng had given him cracked.
It was their agreed-upon signal.
Once the stone cracked, it meant that the mission had been accomplished, and the retreat plan was to be executed immediately.
As for Fang Heng, he would likely continue depending on how things developed.
According to what Fang Heng had said, if the situation allowed, he wouldn't mind destroying the entire world.
However, judging from the strange phenomenon sensed in the sky just now, it was highly likely that Fang Heng had already taken action.
The Bone Dragon's back was filled with undead faction players, laughing and chatting joyfully.
Suddenly, one of the players noticed something. He looked down towards the ground beneath the Bone Dragon and his expression immediately became more serious.
"What's wrong?"
"Everyone, come take a look."
The others quickly gathered around and followed his gaze.
What?!
On the ground, massive cracks had appeared, seemingly out of nowhere.
The cracks were spreading and growing rapidly.
Looking up, the dark clouds in the sky had thickened even further, and ahead, the sky had become a storm of lightning.
The sunlight that had been visible earlier was now completely blocked by the gloom.
It felt as if the entire world had plunged into an apocalypse.
Huge rifts continued to churn on the ground.
Shi Lipeng's face hardened, his heart racing uncontrollably.
Was this the result of a massive extraction of dimensional energy?
Suddenly, Shi Lipeng's pupils contracted sharply.
"Watch out!"
Swish!!
The Bone Dragon beneath their feet accelerated and veered sharply to the right.
The players turned around and saw a huge spatial rift tearing open in the air, right where the Bone Dragon had just passed.
A crystal-like head peeked out from the rift.
What the hell was that?!
The players looked back at the spatial rift, a cold sweat running down their backs.
If they had been a moment slower, they would have collided with the creature in midair.
This was bad.
The flow of world energy had been disrupted, causing the entire world to descend into extreme instability.
Shi Lipeng shouted urgently, "Quick! Accelerate the retreat! We need to leave immediately!"
In the next moment, the undead Bone Dragon's flying speed surged to its limit, as it quickly headed toward the designated teleportation passage for their retreat.
...
Central sealed area.
Fortress Lord Niel panted heavily.
Just a minute ago, he had watched as Fang Heng, in the form of the God of the Underworld, broke through the encirclement of the Holy Court's honorary knights, forcefully escaping and vanishing from sight at high speed.
He had even taken one of their own with him.
That person was...
Niel furrowed his brows slightly.
No! This wasn't the time to think about that!
There was something more important!
Niel turned to look at the entrance passage leading to the forbidden zone.
The entire fortress had been destroyed by more than half. A large number of Lickers still blocked the exit, but it was clear that they wouldn't hold out much longer.
A large number of monsters, emerging from dimensional rifts, had already surged into the central area of the sealed land's forbidden zone.
"Sir!"
Several Holy Court guards hurriedly came up to protect him.
As the world's energy continued to be extracted, the dimensional monsters spilling out from the dimensional space had fallen into a frenzy. With Fang Heng's departure, they had lost their target and were now charging toward their group.
"Follow me!"
Niel steeled himself, slashing through the dimensional monsters that lunged at him with a sword. He sternly ordered, "The sealed monsters are inside! Fang Heng must have done something inside. We need to go in and confirm the situation!"
At this point, Niel had pinned all his remaining hopes on what was inside the sealed area.
If everything was caused by the monsters' seals being broken, then there might still be a chance to save the situation.
Niel even fantasized that perhaps High Priest Ron could still lead them to turn the tide.
"Go!"
"Yes!"
The Holy Court's Knight Legion and guards roared in unison, charging alongside Fortress Lord Niel into the central area of the sealed land!
Having already been severely depleted by Fang Heng, the Holy Court team found themselves once again the target of focused attacks from dimensional monsters.
Niel pushed his holy power to its limits, leading the others in a desperate battle, watching as his companions fell one by one.
After paying an enormous price, they finally broke through to the forbidden zone within the sealed land.
However, when they saw the scene inside the forbidden zone, their faces instantly turned pale.
Where was High Priest Ron?!
The magic array that had originally sealed the area had been destroyed more than half, and many of the altars still remained, sealed.
But the altar at the very center, which had sealed the demonic seed, had been completely destroyed!
Then where was the sealed demonic seed?
Had it vanished?
Niel's mind went blank as he struggled to understand what had happened.
"Bang!!!"
The Great Hall was filled with shattered magic arrays, altars, countless spatial rifts, and dimensional creatures, but nothing else remained.
He couldn't find Ron, and even the demonic seed had disappeared along with him.
Before Niel could continue observing, a swarm of monsters surged toward them from within the forbidden zone!
"D*mn it! Block them!"
Meanwhile, in another part of the sealed land, Fang Heng was leading Yan Yuexin in a rapid retreat!
Yan Yuexin's heart pounded wildly, her eyes fixed on Fang Heng as she watched him flip his wrist and summon the great holy sword.
It was him!
Before, she had been ninety-nine percent sure, but now, Yan Yuexin was one hundred percent certain!
Fang Bai was Fang Heng!
"Whoosh!!!"
Fang Heng swung the great holy sword forward, sending a holy ripple outward!
The ripple sent the dimensional monsters that surged from all sides flying back.
Fang Heng kept swinging the sword, cutting a bloody path as he and Yan Yuexin escaped.
Along the way, numerous dimensional rifts continued to tear open, and more dimensional monsters poured through them.
"This is a huge mess..."
Fang Heng bitterly smiled.
He hadn't controlled the energy absorption properly, and now, he had absorbed too much dimensional energy. It seemed the world was on the verge of collapse.
They had to get out of here quickly!
Fortunately, the holy ripple effect of the great holy sword was incredibly effective against groups, allowing them to carve their way toward the periphery and escape.
