Just as Tianyang was attracted by the dense sea of black people on the dome, the shadow under his feet squirmed silently, and then a figure made purely of shadows rose up. The shadow was only a thin layer, and it moved towards Tianyang without any sound.
Just as it was about to touch Tianyang, Tianyang's figure disappeared in an instant, and the shadow's movement suddenly stopped, and then a red line appeared on the waist, and purple-red flames gushed out from the shadow, tearing the shadow into two pieces.
Tianyang appeared on the other side and watched the two shadows melt like cream in the purple-red flames. He frowned slightly.
If Tianyang had not used the 'Man' star technique to increase the accuracy of perception to the extreme, he might not have been able to detect this strange black shadow in time.
You have to know that he is already a heavenly level, and he is still like this. If a strong man of the next level were to be in this hall, the chance of being possessed by the black shadow would be very high.
After the black shadow melted, the shadows cast by other statues, pillars, and platforms in the hall all squirmed, and then human-shaped black shadows rose from them. They seemed to be attracted by an invisible force and all pounced towards Tianyang.
Tianyang pointed forward calmly, and Heiting in the state of 'Ghost Nothingness' released invisible thunderstorms, killing those dark shadows in batches. At the same time, Tianyang waved 'Wild Fire', setting off bursts of purple-red flames, burning and melting those dark shadows that rushed to his side.
Perhaps those black shadows realized that this would not cause any harm to Tianyang, so they began to gather together, three or five black shadows, and threw themselves at any shadow nearby, making that shadow a little thicker.
The number of shadows in the hall immediately shrank by half, but they were still gathering. Finally, only one shadow was left in the hall.
This black shadow already has a strong texture and its shape is no longer thin. Although it is difficult to see the facial features, it is clear that it is a tall and strong man wearing heavy armor with a cloak fluttering behind him.
Although it was just a shape formed by the aggregation of shadows, it unexpectedly exuded an invisible majesty, as if an emperor appeared before Tianyang.
"this... ... "
Tianyang looked up at the flares that were still burning and emitting light, and combined with the name "Lightless Hall", Tianyang guessed that this might be a mechanism used by the Against-Light Cult to defend against invasion.
Once someone steps into the hall and creates light, the hall's defense mechanism will be activated, releasing these shadows.
Since he didn't know what abilities this shadow had, Tianyang didn't dare to be careless. A symbol lit up in his replica eye, and a short old man appeared in front of him.
It was Lei Fu, the former Speaker of the Thunder Council.
As soon as this time projection came out, Lei Fu made one gray-white "elemental javelin" after another appear behind him. As the projection stretched out his hand and waved, those elemental javelins fired like a machine gun, firing at the majestic black shadow like an emperor.
At the same time, the projection of Lei Fu squatted on the ground with his hands on the ground. The dark ground quickly bulged, and two "rock puppets" took shape in an instant. They took big steps and approached the black shadow, forming the second wave of offensive after the "elemental javelin".
At this time, the black shadow of the emperor raised his leg and stepped forward violently, creating a dark shock wave. The shock wave swept across like a surging wave, shattering the gray elemental spears and washing the two rock puppets to make them stagger and unsteady.
Then, the emperor raised his hand.
The dark statues of the black people in the crowd all vibrated, as if they were injected with life, and submitted to the dark shadow of the emperor. They were transformed into another form of puppets, and pounced on the rock puppet, the thunder cauldron, and the sun from the ground, from mid-air, and from every corner.
Tianyang said "Huh", a little surprised at the black shadow's ability, but he reacted quickly, driving the black thunder to release a thunderstorm, blowing up the black people statues that pounced on him one by one.
Lei Fu used the ability of 'Wild Wind' to form a tornado around himself, which made the black statues that rushed towards him bounce away. Then he spread the tornado, making it form a storm of considerable size. The power of this storm was so great that it swept up countless statues and smashed them into pieces.
Then Lei Fu raised both hands high, causing flashes of lightning to appear in the sky above the hall. Then a dazzling bolt of lightning struck the emperor's dark shadow, causing it to flicker as if it was about to explode.
More lightning bolts fell, densely packed together, layer upon layer, forming a forest of thunder.
The hall was filled with dazzling lightning, and the emperor's shadow had endured no one knowing how many times it had been hit. But at this moment, the falling thunder suddenly changed its angle in mid-air and struck towards the projection of the thunder cauldron, as if even the lightning was subservient to the shadow, and therefore temporarily changed sides and attacked the thunder cauldron instead.
Tianyang's pupils slightly dilated, and he had a vague idea. He was worried that the projection of the thunder cauldron could not withstand it, so he raised the "wild fire", set off a tide of flames, and offset the lightning.
At this time, Tian Yang heard someone say "Huh", and then a strange voice sounded: "It's the 'Thunder Apostle', stop fighting, as long as there is light, the 'Shadow Guardian' of the Niguang Cult can exist forever."
The sound was still ringing when darkness suddenly flowed near the flare in the hall. It enveloped the flare like a waterfall, causing the light to dim quickly.
Tianyang also dispersed the projection of Lei Fu and the forest of thunder. When the hall became dark, the so-called "Shadow Guardian" did not attack again. It seemed that it could not find its target. Then its body disintegrated and turned into thin black shadows, disappearing into the air.
Although Tianyang couldn't see anything, he sensed that someone appeared on the other side of the hall, but the person's breath was a little strange, and Tianyang couldn't feel his heartbeat.
"Come with me. Once there is light here, the 'Shadow Guard' will be activated. You probably don't want to communicate in the dark." The man chuckled, and then, as Tianyang sensed, he turned around and walked forward.
Tianyang followed and roughly knew that he had entered a door, and then walked along a passage. After turning several corners, he and the mysterious man entered a room again.
"I have to close the door."
The man spoke, and then Tianyang heard the sound of a door closing, and then a faint light came on in the room, which turned out to be a candle.
As the candles lit up one after another, Tianyang saw a middle-aged man with silver hair and beard. His hair was neatly combed backwards, and his chin was covered with a silver beard.
He was wearing a black robe that looked very vintage, with a classic style and simple design.
He appeared to be blind in one eye, so that eye was shut tightly and had noticeable scars around it.
"Are you an Ascendant?"
"But what you just used were obviously dark particles."
"Oh, I see. You must be a 'traitor.'"
The middle-aged man with a silver beard talked to himself. He chuckled and said, "Don't be offended. I have forgotten how long it has been since I last saw anyone, so I am a little excited."
"Fortunately, I usually talk to myself. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to speak now."
"I'm sorry, I don't have anything to eat or even water, otherwise I should have brought out some good wine to treat you."
At first glance, he seems to be a kind-hearted person, but Tianyang just feels it is weird. Yarati has been lost for nearly a thousand years, and the surface is full of all kinds of strange phenomena. In such an environment, how can there be normal humans
No one can live that long, not to mention he said there is no food here, so how did he survive until now
"By the way, can you tell me, what is your name?" The middle-aged man's remaining eyes flickered with curiosity.
"Tianyang, my name is Tianyang."
Tianyang paused and asked, "What about you?"
The middle-aged man looked slightly dazed, then smiled bitterly: "I don't know what to call myself. When I was still complete, I did have a name."
"At that time, people called me 'Silver City', and some people also called me 'Tyrant' behind my back." The middle-aged man laughed dryly, as if he was talking about something insignificant.
Tian Yang almost raised Wildfire to chop him when he heard it.
Silver City!
He is actually Yincheng!
The Emperor of the Silver Empire, the world's first Ultimate, the man who was later parasitized and therefore called the 'Mad King'
Why isn't he dead yet
Didn't they say his body collapsed
For a moment, Tianyang felt as if he was falling into a fog.
The middle-aged man who called himself "Yincheng" had a slightly changed expression and said, "It seems that you know who I am. And since you have come to the Lightless Hall, how could you not know who "Yincheng" is?"
"Well, I am also a part of him, so you can just call me 'Silver City', so it will be easier to communicate."
Tian Yang saw that he showed no signs of madness, so he tried to ask, "Your Majesty Yin Cheng, what is your current condition?"
Ginjo laughed, walked to the side and sat down: "Don't worry, I'm not parasitic, and I'm not an 'Apostle'. I just said that I am a part of that man. I am him, and I am not him."
Tian Yang was surprised to hear a new word and couldn't help asking, "What is an apostle?"
Ginjo looked back at him: "You don't know? I clearly feel the breath of 'revelation' in you. Why haven't you become the Ultimate, the Apostle?"
Tian Yang was surprised again and asked, "You actually know that I received the 'revelation'?"
He paused and said, "I have only received the 'revelation', but have not yet awakened and become the Ultimate. Your Majesty Ginjo, is the Ultimate equal to the Apostle? What is an Apostle?"
Yin Cheng looked at him deeply and said, "I am not that man, so you don't have to call me Your Majesty. Besides, the empire has fallen, and that man is no longer the emperor."
"Although the 'Shadow Guard' outside was created based on that man's template and still retains his original form, the 'Conqueror King' is already dead."
After exhaling lightly, he continued, "An apostle is a messenger of God, an agent, and a temporary user of God's body."
