Chapter 3080 Ancient Scars
The bodies of the demigod witches then turned into two golden rays of light, entangled with the moonlight around the hundred-meter giant Shade, and then wrapped around his right fist.
The golden and silver light filled his right fist with the most powerful power he could use in his mortal state so far. "Time" and "Moon" were the powers he was most familiar with. Unless he ignited his divinity, even the stranger himself could not think of how he could go further in his mortal state.
Hundreds of ring sorcerers witnessed that at this moment, he used the "divine overflow" state to drive his body and soul. Without using any magic, he took a step forward and threw a punch at the old man on the throne under the starry sky.
This simple and unpretentious blow shattered the layers of already unstable space one after another. Time became incoherent under this punch, and the stars and the moon in the night sky also sparkled because of this punch.
Time and the moon, the ring wizard and the witch merged perfectly together under the "divine overflow". This punch seemed to be able to directly penetrate the ancient's head and then smash the towering tree behind him.
Even Emilia, who was riding on the little unicorn, was wondering if Shade was beating the old man. After all, they were of similar size, but one was standing and the other was sitting. Then she saw the old man sitting under the tree holding the armrest of the seat with his left hand for leverage, and raised his right fist to punch Shade.
Boom!
The sound came directly from the soul of everyone who witnessed this scene. This was not just a collision of flesh; the collision of spirits directly caused the elements to form a tidal wave-like spread. The strong wind formed by the impact waves of physics and spirit even made the entire giant tree tremble, and the violent shaking was then transmitted to every corner of the forest.
When the elemental tide and shock waves spread, the little unicorn even had to stretch out its horn to prop up the shield to keep its balance in the air. Emilia, who was still in the thirteenth ring state, knew more than ever what kind of terrible power Shade was using.
Even though she is temporarily borrowing the power of the Thirteen Rings, it is nothing compared to that great power.
The collision of the two fists even made the Thirteen Rings' heads dizzy for half a second. Large groups of Ring Warlocks fell from the air, and the Paradox Bugs scattered in the open space exploded and died directly.
Only Iluna, whose angelic power was about to fade, and Bill Schneider, who fell headfirst from a tree at the edge of the clearing, saw Shad confronting the Ancient One. Shad staggered back two steps, then exited the "Body of Courage" state and returned to his normal body shape. The two demigod witches who assisted him fell to the ground slowly like feathers, but fortunately they did not seem to be seriously injured.
The ancient opponent closed his eyes and leaned back after the punch. When he opened his eyes again, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth like a stream of light.
The people who had recovered from the chaos and shock only realized at this moment that the forest was shaking and the giant trees were humming. The "God Caller" did not seem to be simply fighting with the ancient under the tree, but more like directly colliding with the entire forest.
Xia De used his left hand to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, eyes, ears and nose, while his right hand, which had completely lost sensation, was still recovering.
The corners of his mouth trembled, because he clearly felt that he was indeed fighting against the entire Vestal Forest. From the result, he was not considered a loser, but compared to the ancient, his "divine overflow" state could not be maintained for a long time, so he actually lost:
"Since we can't win even with this, it's time to end this long night."
Xia De was suspended in the air, looking at the old man on the throne who was also recovering. Both of them needed a chance to catch their breath:
"Are you sure you want to fight us to the last minute? Your behavior tonight was so strange that I even thought you might admit defeat to Emilia in the next second."
The old man on the throne smiled, but his breathing was still not completely stable. He looked at the glowing "little man" in front of him:
"I asked the Watchmaker to admit defeat so that you could gather all the conditions and come to me as soon as possible. But I will not admit defeat myself. If I lose like this, how can I accept it?"
He closed his eyes and then opened them again. There was no need to hide anything now:
“I know you’re still wondering what exactly I want to do, so let me fill you in on the missing information.
The source of all this was the departure of the Infinite Tree Father, the collapse of the World Tree, and the serious impact on the time order of the entire world, including the outer planes. The scars of time appeared directly in the material world, and many of the cracks took centuries to heal even in the Second Era. "
"Is there also a time scar in the area we are in?"
Xia De asked, trying to recover as quickly as possible. The old man nodded slowly on the throne:
"Yes, and it is the most dangerous scar. It is more terrifying than any time rift you have encountered now. The 'Doomsday Rift' you discovered some time ago is just a small branch of this scar. It represents that the ancient rift is about to get out of control.
If the people of the Second Age had not handled it carefully, this world would not have even lasted until your time. But the Tree Father had arranged everything. A piece of the World Tree happened to fall in this area, which delayed the outbreak of the problem. Later, the coalition forces that defeated me in the Ancient War also discovered the problem after the war, so they knew that they could not completely eliminate me. They needed me to suppress the gap. "
Everyone on the battlefield heard what he said. Most of them looked solemn. Emilia, who had already gained her memories from the ruins, pursed her lips slightly, while Shade looked at the throne itself:
"This Throne"
Although he had lost the divinity stored in his chest, the old man still had the same dignity as before. When Shade, who was in the "divine overflow" state, talked to him, even the demigod witch could not tell whether the old man on the throne or her lover had a more transcendent feeling.
"How can I be content if I don't fight this one?"
He placed both of his hands on the armrests on both sides of the throne. Under the light of the giant tree behind him, the old man in a long robe and with a white beard looked closer and closer to the appearance of the "World Tree" in Shade's mind:
"Since the Second Era when I was sealed here to guard this thing, five eras have passed, and countless tens of thousands of years have passed. Now even I can no longer suppress it, but how can I be willing to give up my seat so peacefully?"
From the beginning of the battle until now, Shade only believed that this conversation was true:
"No one wants to take your seat. You can sit here as long as you want."
The old man under the tree shook his head, and for the first time so far, a tired look appeared on his face:
"But I have to let it go. It's been too long, too long. I can't even wait to let it go. Since the opening of the grand movement of "Whispering Poems", I have been waiting for tonight to come."
"Since you also want to maintain order here, why have you been against us all this time? What is the purpose of this war tonight?"
This time it was Vanessa who asked the question. The little witch looked very inconspicuous because she was standing with a group of tall witches.
The old man on the throne answered this question in a very soft voice:
“Don’t think of me as a positive character. Although I am willing to protect this forest, I am still an evil creature. Although I hope someone can take my place on the throne and inherit the responsibility I have shouldered for ten thousand years, I also want to take revenge on you. I want to release my true nature and let the scar of time directly engulf the forest and tear apart the material world.
So I guided the God Summoner to lead the final candidate to me, just as I said just now: if you beat me, I will tell you these things; if I win, I would rather let this ten thousand years of responsibility become a joke and let time completely collapse. "
By now, Shade had a good idea of his mental journey and why what he did seemed contradictory. Miss Pav was right. There was indeed only one Ancient One, and there was indeed no schizophrenia.
After a brief conversation, both of them had almost recovered from the punch. The ancient one looked at Shade again with eyes that seemed to have seen through all of time and space:
"Let the gods appear, let the ancient god appear. I am waiting. I have been waiting. I am the remains of the world tree. I thought that only gods could defeat me. I was wrong at the beginning of the Second Era. At the end of the Sixth Era, I want to prove that I was right at least once."
Shade glanced at Emilia from the corner of his eye:
"How about we discuss this? I summoned a god to defeat you, and you still sit here."
The old man on the throne shook his head:
"I told you I can't sit here any longer."
"Then how about we make a bet? I can beat you without summoning the gods. If I win the bet, you can continue to sit here."
The Ancient One laughed, and he laughed sincerely:
"No, either replace someone or destroy them, it's that simple."
He held the armrests on both sides of the throne tightly with his hands, and leaned his upper body back completely on the back of the throne. After a slight sigh, the rotating light from the dial behind him merged into the giant tree, and the lush treetops that already had a green fluorescence became even brighter.
The forest under the night seemed to have completely "come alive" at this moment. Every leaf, every branch, every breeze, and even every stone had consciousness and soul. In other words, all of Vestal Glade had become him. He was Uk Wood, and also the remains of the world tree. He was both the ancient one on the throne and Vestal Glade itself.
The woodland is his "sublime language", the woodland is his "puzzle", the woodland is him, and he is the woodland.
PS: ok, now we can guess what Xia De’s words of central ring sublimation are.
PS2: There is a detailed dialogue description of Professor Yuk Wood's thoughts after the fight, and it will not be glossed over like this. There is no need to talk too much before the fight, here is just a preliminary revelation.
