Chapter 726: 694. Overturn the city!
As the seven stars shine brightly.
Xia Feng noticed that the mist in the sky above was growing denser, rapidly transforming into a deep purple.
Soon, the purple sky seemed to collapse, descending rapidly below.
Xia Feng's expression changed slightly: "Run."
It seemed that reaching the top of the tower was indeed impossible. Xia Feng realized he had underestimated Moluo Saint Shepherd's methods.
Mu Qingtong's expression was solemn. She too recognized the descending mist and reacted quickly, following Xia Feng further downward.
Miao Master looked at the sky, shook his head: "I have the Red Moon Sacred Seal on me, I can't run away anymore, you guys go."
"?"
What? Old lady, why did we come here if you're not going to run? For tourism? Xia Feng glanced back.
One of their group's purposes for coming in was to rescue Miao Master. If Miao Master doesn't leave, wasn't their tower entrance in vain?
A waste of effort.
Well, not entirely in vain; he brought out the Seven Emotions Curse requiring him to profess love to Miss Mu daily, a huge loss!
Cha Naixue frowned, glanced at the middle-aged woman, hesitated only for half a second, then nodded to Xia Feng below: "We go."
After speaking, she didn't hesitate at all, falling downward.
Good lord, Xia Feng muttered internally, I thought you were about to stage a TV drama with your teacher about 'I won't go', 'You should go'.
Unexpectedly decisive.
Since Cha Naixue didn't mind, Xia Feng naturally wouldn't persuade further. The group swiftly charged toward the bottom of the tower.
"Look, this Purple Mist has already formed a sea of clouds, vastly exceeding the amount released by Obrian back then."
As they fled, Cha Naixue looked back, she clearly felt the malice coming from the depths of the Purple Mist, as if countless evil beasts were eyeing her voraciously.
Xia Feng opened the Holy Knight Space, leading the group of women quickly to the side.
Back then, Obrian attempted to open the Thought Cage Core, complete the erosion and assimilation of the thoughts of the two Holy Daughters, but was eventually stopped by Xia Feng, and the Thought Cage Core failed to open.
Even the Thought Cage Core that Obrian failed to open nearly succeeded in eroding the two Holy Daughters.
Now, within Babel Tower, all seven Thought Cage Cores have been successfully opened, releasing an amount of Purple Mist that is terrifying, more than thousands of times the previous release.
If touched, those with unstable willpower are highly likely to be instantly assimilated, and even those with strong willpower might not hold out for a few seconds.
Honestly, Xia Feng wasn't sure what the result of this thought assimilation would be—whether one would become a puppet or something else—unknown.
But the assimilators would definitely lose their self-will, akin to being dead.
"Jiang Qiue," Xia Feng asked through thoughts, "can you use Immortal Word to get us out of the tower?"
The woman in the blue dress had a solemn expression, shook her head: "Unless Babel Tower opens another gate, otherwise..."
Her thoughts halted there as she sensed through Spiritual Sense, startled to discover.
Babel Tower's 108 portals, originally tightly closed to isolate the inside from the outside, were now completely open!
The spatial seals on them all removed.
"The doors opened, let's go!" Xia Feng also discovered this change, hesitated no longer, used the Holy Knight Space to take the group of women directly through the tower.
However, what shocked them was that the sea of Purple Mist that filled the entire Babel Tower also surged out once the tower doors opened.
Black Moon City, near dusk, Western Heaven was red with sunset glow, in the east, the mysterious army continued their siege, battling chaotically with the Black Moon Knight.
A battlefield of tens of thousands, blood and fire filling the sky, corpses landing, half of the entire city engulfed in flames, the roads still possessing a few residents not having fled into shelters, running astray.
But at this moment.
Whether it was the Lion-controlling Youth leading the army from the eastern horizon,
or the Burning Heaven Disciples battling the Red Bishop before Babel Tower,
everyone looked puzzled toward Babel Tower's direction, as if a storm surge from ten thousand miles fell, the Purple Mist cloud sea rushed towards everyone in the city.
The Burning Heaven Disciples' eyes contracted in fear, although they didn't know these Purple Mist origins, they clearly felt the terrifying danger, didn't linger in combat, turned and ran.
High above, the youth standing on the majestic Divine Lion had his gaze heavy, quickly ordered the army to retreat, the Divine Lion also carrying him towards the borders of the huge city.
The Purple Mist's expansion speed was extremely fast, chasing Xia Feng and five others, gradually shortening the distance.
Xia Feng somewhat understood, Moluo Saint Shepherd intended to assimilate the thoughts of all life forms in the city.
But what does he plan to do with this? Use Black Moon City as a base to unify the Empire?
If the assimilated life forms have no quantity limit, then unifying the Empire is indeed possible, not only the Empire but potentially the Three Realms as well.
Of course, if that's the case, it's too heaven-defying.
"Buzz——"
As Xia Feng speculated, in the far sky, deep purple streams of light brightened, rapidly enclosing the entire city.
The Lion-controlling Youth had to stop.
The Burning Heaven Disciples were also forced to halt.
The mysterious army besieging behind them and even the Black Moon Church's Knight Order, and major bishops all stopped.
Obviously, this Purple Mist attacks indiscriminately, even targeting the Black Moon Church members.
A few Venerable Realm experts simultaneously displayed Spiritual Clothes, attacking the purple seal, to no avail, the light barrier blocking the entire city unmoved.
Moluo Saint Shepherd was evidently prepared, the entire city was his meticulously prepared trap, no matter the reason for coming to Black Moon City, don't dream of leaving.
"Everyone, since you came uninvited, stay here."
In the world filled with Purple Mist, the cold and authoritative male voice sounded, akin to a life-and-death judgment from God.
Pronouncing the return of their souls.
Purple Mist surged like a destruction flood, obliterating the inner city where Black Moon General Court was, flowing toward the outer city.
"Swish——"
Xia Feng and others charged out of the inner city, reaching the outer city's edge, then looking back,
discovering that the Purple Mist sea had stopped expanding, only covering half of the outer city, seemingly reaching its limit, unable to extend further.
"It's you!" The hoarse and sinister voice filled with killing intent.
Xia Feng looked back and met the gaze of Leng Xiu who stood atop a distant roof, he smiled and waved: "Oh, it's Blood Ghost, hope you've been well."
"Kid, you sure are brave, still daring to linger in Black Moon City."
Leng Xiu squatted on the rooftop like a Winged Beast, surrounded by bats, revealing bloodthirsty fangs, blood-colored eyes full of wicked intentions, sizing up Xia Feng, then shifting gaze towards the two Holy Daughters behind him.
His tongue licked his sharp teeth, chuckling coldly in amusement.
Compared to Leng Xiu, Burning City's hatred for Xia Feng and his people was even greater, mocked by An Ji Saint Shepherd like that, unless this gang is killed, the anger in his heart can't be released.
However, in Burning City's view, the mastermind of yesterday's affair was An Ji Saint Shepherd, who not only swindled Burning Heaven's Divine Faith Fruit but also gave a fake Sumeru King Order to mock them like monkeys.
For many years, no one dared to pull such tricks in transactions with Burning Heaven, courage truly bounded!
