Tens of thousands of red butterflies appeared in the snowy night at some point and were soon seen by everyone.
The strange red butterfly had a translucent appearance. As it fluttered in the woods and open spaces, red spots of light fell from its wings.
They surrounded the figure walking towards the clearing, as if playing with him or walking with him. Soon the red butterflies were all over the forest, and at the same time, the gentle singing of a young girl came from somewhere.
It was clearly the eve of the decisive battle, and the material world was clearly on the brink of disaster, but the scene before my eyes inexplicably made the anxious and uneasy atmosphere become peaceful and... weird. The song was very childish, but also very sad. Listening to the song, it was as if a piece of my chest was missing, and the feeling of losing the most important part of my life almost made me want to cry.
"What is this?"
No one could answer this question, but everyone in the forest who was waiting for the last thirty seconds of the signal saw a figure surrounded by red butterflies, walking out of the petrified forest with black mud flowing, and coming to the edge of the clearing. At this time, the sky full of red butterflies was already flying all over the clearing, accompanied by snowflakes like waves.
This was an illusion cast by the most advanced humanoid angel-level relic. Although Helen and Grace were not at their peak strength, they had broken free from the shackles of the curse of fate and were truly walking on this land hand in hand.
The Guardian's huge petrified clone looked down at the figure, and other eyes from the dense forest were also staring at him.
"Godcaller!"
I don't know who was whispering, but Yin Luna, who was preparing to set off with the church team, showed an excited expression on her face when she saw Hongdie:
"Shad..."
As he walked forward, Shad had closed his eyes, listening to the sad singing of Helen and Grace.
After absorbing the divinity from the heart of the earth, the gushing power that he had been holding back could finally be fully released at this moment. And the moment this long-suppressed impulse was realized, the sense of power was even stronger than before:
"Please, prepare to be promoted."
Facing the gray snow blowing in his face, the red butterflies illuminated his vague figure. In the shadow of the petrified forest behind him illuminated by the fire, Xia De stepped on the illusory steps formed by the red butterflies under his feet, took a step forward, and came into the air.
clear.
"She" said gently, and at this moment, the drop of divinity that was about to be used took the initiative to resonate with the spiritual rune Moon Shadow.
Then, above the night sky where snowflakes and tens of thousands of transparent red butterflies were flying, a big hole appeared in the sky covered by dark clouds, and the March moonlight shone on Shad, with a large cloud of steam slowly appearing behind him.
Thick, boundless, hot steam fog came from nowhere and almost covered the entire sky in an instant, but it could not hide the shadow illuminated by the moonlight and entangled by red butterflies.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The ancient bells were playing, and the shrill whistles echoed throughout the river valley. In the city, Tifa held Mia, who was feeling soft, and stood at the window of the opera house, listening to the bells and looking towards the northeast of the city. Miss Swift and Miss Hayley Aurora didn't know what this meant, but she knew.
A faint smile appeared on the face of the black-haired maid.
The wind blew in the woods, but it was not the cold night wind that had been blowing all night long. Instead, it seemed to come from the distant past, from the very beginning, the gentlest wind under the moon.
A huge shadow emerged from the depths of the gradually shrinking steam fog under the night sky, just like a great existence hidden in the fog showing itself. At this moment, it seemed as if thousands of people were cheering at the same time, and as if thousands of people were shouting at the same time.
It seemed as if a life ring that was even larger than the moon appeared clearly behind the figure that had already reached the sky. The brass ring reflected the light of March, and the four-color spirit runes resonated. The dazzling light of gold, silver, brass, and black iron illuminated everyone's face at the moment.
Luvia looked at Shade in the air with a serious expression, and there was only that figure in her purple eyes. The two red butterfly marks on her shoulders glowed faintly, and the transparent figure behind her, who could not be seen by anyone, looked directly at the faint golden cracks on Shade's body.
A golden aura filled Miss Aurora's face, and her gorgeous face was filled with a probing look:
"It's really him."
The silver light illuminated Miss Carina's worried face:
"Be careful."
Miss Sylvia was bathed in the moonlight, her face flushed with excitement:
"It's him indeed!"
Hillis stood in the shadow of the trees, most worried:
"You must come back."
Only Miss Benanis, who was swept by the four-color spiritual light in turn, still stared at the figure in a daze. She fully understood what kind of story Shade was about to perform:
“This is the best story and the best stage.”
Everyone in the church scattered in the forest looked up at the figure, but only Yin Luna whispered in her heart:
"Every time I wonder who is the chosen one. The noise is getting more exaggerated each time."
Light and shadow intertwined on Shad's body, and as he gained divinity and used the power of divinity time and time again, he became more and more adept at grasping this power.
As the life ring emerged clearly behind him, countless phantoms intertwined in the center of the huge life ring, and even more bizarre scenes appeared among the red butterflies dancing with Shade along with the gray snowflakes.
Shad opened his eyes, looked down and finally saw his guardian, he took a step in the air.
Miracle - Thorns of the Moon/Shadow of the Moon -
The golden spiritual rune separated from the ring and appeared on Shade's left side. The faceless woman with a crown of thorns on her head and a silver moon in her left hand appeared with her head lowered, and then overlapped with Shade's body:
When the silver moon hangs high, thorns and shadows cheer for you.
Dense cracks appeared on Shade's body surface, and brilliant gold radiated out.
Blasphemy-arrogance-
The silver spiritual rune broke away from the ring and appeared on Shad's right side. "Stone Oxenfurt", who was clapping his hands in an exaggerated arc, raised his head slightly, walked towards Shad, and then overlapped with Shad's body.
The stone mirror reflects your arrogance and that of the world.
The silver moonlight almost turned Shad's entire body into silver, and the thin steam mist that had not yet dissipated floated around him like mercury.
Enlightenment-Cinderella-
The brass-colored spirit rune broke away from the ring and appeared in front of Shade. The girl with a big tail in a maid dress flapped her wings behind her and flew towards Shade. She did not overlap with Shade's body. The illusory figure hugged Shade and turned around, then happily kissed his cheek, and then became a part of him.
Shad swore he had no idea what was going on.
When the midnight bell rang, the girl came under the moonlight as promised.
In an instant, the illusion of a "fairy tale town" composed of five layers of maze locks flashed under the night sky, and the brass-colored life ring radiated light like the sun.
Whisper-Puppet—
The black iron spiritual rune broke away from the ring and appeared behind Shad. The puppet that had appeared in the Wilde Opera House flew towards Shad on the puppet dragon, overlapping with Shad's body at a speed that seemed to want to hit him to death.
Everything in the world is a puppet of fate... except you and me.
Everyone on the ground, including the guardians, watched the scene in the air quietly. Although they could not see Shade's face and the life ring clearly due to the light and the red butterfly, it did not prevent people from feeling the extraordinary power.
"Sure enough, the one who summons the god is a demigod..."
Golden miracle, silver blasphemy, brass enlightenment, black iron whisper, the four-color spirit runes surrounded Shade in a quadrilateral and gradually shrunk inward. The four-color strange illusions truly overlapped with his body. At the same time, the illusions and thick fog in the snowy night all disappeared, and only the group of red butterflies accompanied Shade. When the sun-like brass ring continued to rise until it completely overlapped with the three moons in the night sky, looking through the center of the life ring to the night sky, it actually looked like three moons of different sizes, embedded in the life ring.
At this moment, Xia De's figure completely turned into light, and even the outline of his body could not be observed. A new power was brewing in his body, which was another step on the road to becoming a god.
Outsider, channel a drop of divinity to imbue the spiritual runes you prepared for the "Word of Ascension".
The voice beside my ear is a gentle whisper, and the dripping sound is like water drops falling into my heart.
The golden liquid guided by the soul infected the first spirit rune of the Central Ring's Sublimation Language. It was also an ancient evil spirit, reflecting the figure of Shade:
"Miracle - Shadow of the Moon."
The light dissipated, but the rippling golden waves spread in all directions. Although the wind and snow had not stopped, all sounds seemed to have stopped at this moment.
When the golden ripples representing divine light touched Yin Luna's body at the edge of the clearing, the 17-year-old girl suddenly trembled all over. At this moment, it was as if a sun was burning in her eyes, and all the past explorations of new powers were completely integrated at this moment. The power beating in her heart silently merged into her body, and she felt that she had understood what kind of power she wanted.
The divinity was absorbed by the spirit rune, but the glow of divinity still shone on Shade. His body was slowly falling to the ground, but his eyes were still fixed on the guardian in the center of the clearing.
The huge mud statue finally raised its foot and tried to step on the ground. But the next moment, the witch's light shining in the night sky melted the entire statue into mud like the sun melting snow.
So the other guardians' earth clones stopped trying to stop Shad. After Shad crossed the boundary line guarded by the colossi, new clones filled the gap.
