Chapter 938: We ll Be Writing Our Own Legends (I)
"We..." Elf Queen Kellybel looked at the scene before her in a daze. "We'll be destroyed?!"
Gu Tingyun stood at the edge of the cliff inside Heavenly Academy with a walking cane and gazed at the whole world that had been plunged into the world-ending tribulation.
He turned his head and looked at the naïve-faced disciples thronging behind him.
Outside the Jiuhua City Shop, Song Qingfeng, Xu Zixin, Nalan Mingxue, and the others who no longer looked soft and immature as well as many civilian warriors such as Liang Shi and Fu Jianghe slowly raised their heads and looked up at the sky.
This was the world where they lived.
However, it was being cruelly trampled by others.
...
When the Innumerable-Immortal Sea, Gods' Palace, and Nine-Fold Darkness began to retreat, everyone thought that the worst had passed. However, no one had imagined that, compared with the previous wars, this was the real catastrophe that was going to destroy the world.
At this moment, everyone realized that they had only defeated a tiny number of these extremely powerful existences.
In the previous wars, they had shown only a very small portion of their strength. Now, as their truly stunning force was revealed, everyone looked horrified.
...
On the continents, people walked out from buildings one by one and looked up.
Perhaps they had been the happiest when they were ignorant.
Working each day as the sun rose and resting as the sun fell, people were bound by the invisible laws of nature. They were ignorant but also were free of pain and fear.
If nothing unexpected happened, perhaps the whole world would go on like this until it dissolved into nothing one day without people noticing it.
The closer they got to the truth, the more they felt that the world was just an abyss of endless darkness in the ocean.
Perhaps the world before them was Hell.
The people who tried to resist had all been destroyed.
...
"What a fragile world. I even feel like it will collapse if I put one finger on it," a voice said while sneering. It showed itself from the darkness like an evil devil that had brought endless horror to this world.
With three heads, eight legs, a human face, and two horns, it spoke the human language but was cold and inhumane. One could see the undisguised evilness from its face.
The world had its dark side and bright side, and this being undoubtedly represented the deepest darkness.
The sky was filled with both black and white light. Darkness and light started to merge in one place in the sky; it was a scene that no one had ever seen before.
No one could remain intact before this force since this force controlled the whole world!
"Once a human did the same stupid thing, and he ended up dying on this land." A heroic-looking god who was wearing golden armor and a crown gazed at the land as he sat on a huge silverish-white dragon. "Is this man his reincarnation?"
"Even if he is, can he change his pre-destined fate?" A saint master dressed in a purple Daoist robe gazed at the world below them coldly. "That ultimate treasure has stayed in the mortal world for a long time. It seems like these mortals have obtained some of its presence."
"Then, we must kill them all," the evil devil said chillily, "It's the ultimate fortune that has been nurtured by the Heaven and Earth for countless years! How can we share it with these bugs!?"
"We must take it out as a whole."
Countless years had passed. An ultimate thought from that loftiest existence flashed across the minds of these gods and evil demons. "It's time for harvest."
"Ferocious Godly Army!?" A voice seemed to come from beyond the Heaven.
Only one voice remained.
"Roar!" Mind-disturbing whistles seemed to rise from their souls, and the Heaven and Earth seemed to merge again. As gusts howled, thick grey mist rose and engulfed the whole world.
...
"It's the Elf God!" In the Elf Kingdom, Elf Queen Kellybel and First Elder Hyru watched as the mist spread. However, the mirror-like lake looked even clearer as if it was welcoming its creator.
"Perhaps ...the Elf God has descended to the Lower Region?! He returned to see us?!" Elf Queen Kellybel and First Elder Hyru led the elders to walk up to welcome the god, trembling in excitement.
...
"The patriarch is coming back!" In the East Continent and even the Continent of Immortal Relics, the people in the major factions were thrilled.
After all, these patriarchs were the figures who they boasted about for generations.
"Palace Master, look!" Standing outside the ancestor shrine with other cultivators behind him, Xue Daolv stared at the strange phenomenon intently.
"That patriarch is the most ancient one of our Liuyun Daoist Palace!" With a smug face, Xue Daolv showed off his knowledge and whispered to the disciples beside him, "It's said... our Liuyun Daoist Palace is only a side branch of the side branch established by this patriarch."
It happened everywhere in the world such as the Orc Kingdom, the Elf Forest, and Liuyun Daoist Palace.
Fog rose, and it was as chilly and gloomy as frost.
A blurry and twisted figure walked over from the fog.
Everyone's cheers stopped, and their excited expressions froze on their faces. Then, their faces turned wicked in horror, and they yelled with fear, "What... what's this?!"
In the Elf Royal Palace, a figure slowly walked out of the misty shadows. With half of its withered face concealed under the cape, it pulled out a rusty strange bow to the fullest and aimed it at all the elves before it!
It looked exactly like the grand statue outside the Royal Palace!
"That's..." First Elder Hyru almost chocked. "The godly technique, Moon Fall?!"
With a humming sound, his mind turned blank.
Almost subconsciously, he lunged to one side. In the next moment, he looked back and saw several astonished elders being devoured by the white light that was shooting up into the sky!
Meanwhile, an invisible force seemed to spread between Heaven and Earth.
"No... it's no longer the Elf God!" Elf Queen Kellybel said in a shaky voice.
They were filled with despair. In this final tribulation, their god didn't bring them redemption but destruction!
...
It happened not only in the Elf Forest but in the factions such as Liuyun Daoist Palace and all the kingdoms in the West Continent...
It felt as if a massacre had begun!
"That's... the immortal technique - 10,000 Li Flowing Clouds! According to the legends, it's the most powerful immortal technique in the mortal world!"
In Liuyun Daoist Palace, the holy cultivation place full of flowers and flowing white clouds, countless disciples who had been anticipating the descent of their patriarch were plunged into a shower of blood!
Screams and howls rose in waves! They still looked astonished since none of them had anticipated such a thing!
What they saw was the fate of the losers. Perhaps one day, they would become like this too. While they were worshipped by the future generations, they already became puppets and butcher knives of other beings and would slash cold blades at their descendants!
