Chapter 2672 The Rift
Chapter 2672 The Rift
At this moment, the guards outside the sealed land had retreated back to the fortresses, busy dealing with the large number of dimensional creatures, and no one was left to pay attention to Fang Heng and Yan Yuexin, who were trying to escape from the sealed land.
Seeing that they had already entered the outskirts of the sealed land, and the gates of the fortress ahead were tightly locked, vast hordes of creatures were spilling out from the dimensional rifts, attacking the city.
Yan Yuexin felt her scalp go numb.
It was strange.
Wasn't this just a simple escort mission?
How had it come to this?
Why did she have to endure this hellish torment?
How were they going to escape this situation?
While lost in such thoughts, Yan Yuexin suddenly heard a loud shout by her ear, "Follow me!"
"What?!"
Her heart skipped a beat as she wondered if Fang Heng was planning to force his way out.
The next moment, a phantom of a magic array appeared in front of her and quickly condensed and spun into form!
Skeleton summoning skill!
"Boom!!!"
Accompanied by intense pressure, a Bone Dragon emerged from the magic array, flapping its wings and soaring into the sky!
A Bone Dragon!
It was actually a Bone Dragon!
This was the first time Yan Yuexin had seen Fang Heng summon a Bone Dragon with her own eyes, and she was so shocked that she couldn't find the words to speak.
"Let's go!!!"
Fang Heng grabbed Yan Yuexin and quickly jumped onto the back of the Bone Dragon, soaring rapidly into the sky.
"This, this..."
Yan Yuexin was so stunned by the scene before her that she couldn't speak.
Standing on the Bone Dragon's back, she moved forward quickly, and along the way, occasional spatial rifts appeared on both sides.
The entire world felt like it had descended into an apocalypse.
A torrential downpour poured down!
"Szz! Szzzz!!!"
Yan Yuexin's heart skipped a beat.
What was that!?
The raindrops that landed on her were corrosive, causing hundreds of points of continuous damage!
She looked up and saw that high in the sky, a massive black rift had appeared in the space overhead.
From the rift, a huge phantom of a mouth emerged, revealing sharp white teeth.
A steady stream of liquid was dripping down from the artifact-like opening.
The highly corrosive liquid fell onto the Bone Dragon, leaving deep black imprints on its body.
Fang Heng's brows furrowed as he suddenly raised his hand high.
Whoosh!
The blood-red longsword on Fang Heng's back exploded with a loud bang, forming a blood screen that quickly covered the area above. The corrosive liquid rapidly dissolved upon contact with the blood screen.
Fang Heng could feel it faintly.
The massive creature above them had already reached the demigod-level tier.
"Speed up! We need to break through!"
Fortunately, the ruins of a massive pit, where the retreating forces had gathered, were already visible in the distance.
Fang Heng controlled the Bone Dragon, beginning to descend as he accelerated toward the retreat point.
Yan Yuexin's mind was in a bit of disarray.
This was insane. She was running away with Fang Heng now—would the Holy Court suspect any connection between them?
Would she still be able to continue working within the Holy Court faction after this?
"Yan Yuexin!"
Hearing Fang Heng's shout, Yan Yuexin snapped back to her senses. At that moment, she could no longer care about anything else. Looking down at the dry, cracked earth, she quickly spotted the location of the still-intact teleportation magic array and shouted, "It's over there! The magic array is there! Fang Heng, take me down!"
As she spoke, the fluctuations in the surrounding space grew stronger.
More spatial rifts began to appear around the Bone Dragon!
"Go!"
Fang Heng shouted, and with that, he leaped off the descending Bone Dragon's back, pulling Yan Yuexin along.
"Wait! I need to activate the magic array first!"
Seeing this, Yan Yuexin's heart raced with anxiety.
However, the Bone Dragon continued to dive downward at high speed!
Wait, no! This wasn't just reckless—this was suicide!
Whoosh!
In the critical moment, Fang Heng's right eye activated, and the magic array in his vision rapidly spun!
The omniscient eye!
The magic array below suddenly erupted in light and began to spin rapidly.
What?!
Yan Yuexin was stunned and had no time to think about how Fang Heng had remotely triggered the magic array. She hurriedly condensed an imprint in front of her.
Whoosh!!
In the next moment, the magic array flared with violet light, enveloping both of them at once.
...
[Hint: The player has entered a mid-tier special game world-City of Abundance.]
[Hint: The player has exited the sealed land.]
[Hint: Mission-The Undead's Counterattack (faction mission) is being settled...]
[Hint: The player has dealt a devastating blow to the Holy Court's world. The player gains an additional 12 million contribution points. All players in the undead faction gain +2 morale, while all players in the Holy Court faction lose -2 morale. Effect duration: 30 days.]
[Hint: Team contribution points will be settled once all players involved in the mission have either retreated or perished.]
Fang Heng's retina displayed the game notifications as they slowly faded.
Yan Yuexin materialized within the teleportation magic array, feeling a sudden weakness beneath her feet. She collapsed onto the ground, chills running down her spine.
She felt like she had just danced on the edge of the Grim Reaper's door.
It was lucky she was still alive.
This mission was beyond what any ordinary person could handle!
"Are you alright?"
Yan Yuexin looked up to see Fang Heng offering a friendly, albeit casual, inquiry. A wry smile appeared on her lips as she waved her hand lightly.
"I'm fine."
"That's good. Hope we meet again next time."
Yan Yuexin watched as Fang Heng brushed off his pants, seemingly treating the whole event like a trivial task, before quickly leaving. She couldn't help but bitterly smile.
What the hell?!
Did he even realize what he had just done?
He had directly destroyed a high-tier game world occupied by the Holy Court!
That meant the conflict between the undead and the Holy Court had completely escalated!
The Holy Court couldn't possibly ignore such a direct humiliation from the Undead.
The rift between the two factions was beyond repair now.
Only one thing could come next: war!
Fang Heng, however, had no idea about the ramifications of his actions.
Even if he did, it wouldn't matter to him.
Right now, Fang Heng's mind was consumed by the thought of the death realm's ice soul seal.
He had obtained The Sigh of the Compassionate from the seal!
Add to that the transcendent sealing technique, which was nearing its peak.
He had just gathered more than twenty vessels filled with dimensional energy, and he was eager to return and have Abe Akaya absorb them. That would further enhance his attributes.
And on top of that, he had the support of the undead council and the Sealing Art Association.
With all these advantages combined, sealing Sulhog, who was trapped, shouldn't be a problem.
There was over a 60% chance of success.
Even if he failed, he could always try again, and the probability would improve with each attempt.
Once successful, he'd get his hands on the treasure left by the Empress!
The key to the God-level necromancy passage was within reach!
Time to go!
First, back to the Zombie Apocalypse to absorb more dimensional energy.
Excitement flashed in Fang Heng's eyes.
...
In the death realm.
Ji Xiaobo had been waiting at the entrance of Icebound Valley for a long time.
Behind him, several instructors from the undead council accompanied him.
After contacting Shi Lipeng earlier, he immediately brought his team to the Icebound Valley to prepare for the next phase of the sealing process for Sulhog.
