Chapter 565: We Did All the Work—How Did You End Up Taking All the Credit?
Perfect Life roared to vent his emotions, then gritted his teeth tightly.
His spatial teleportation ability had always been one of his backup cards. While he wasn't doing anything earlier, he had specifically visited all eight cities.
Not for any other purpose, but simply to place a teleportation point in each city.
Though there were certain distance limitations, within the same city, he could move freely between teleportation points.
And each city's teleportation point had one located at the city's exact center—where he stood now.
Similarly, he also stood at the center point of the massive Yin-Yang Fish pattern that rose from beneath the city and covered the entire area.
The formation beneath his feet overlapped with the entire city!
This level of consumption was overwhelming even for Perfect Life, who had enhanced his abilities through multiple Perfect Clearances.
He clenched his jaw tightly, feeling a tightness in his chest, desperately wanting to cough violently.
But he didn't dare cough violently—he couldn't let this energy dissipate, or all his previous efforts would be wasted."Hah..."
A suppressed laugh squeezed through his teeth, followed by another roar as the entire Eight Trigrams lit up. Even though it was still daytime in Gen City, the dazzling light remained soul-shaking.
A gentle yet overwhelmingly righteous power covered the city. The large areas of thorns on the ground began to wither and disappear.
They turned to dust, scattering between heaven and earth.
As for the constantly churning ground, it gradually calmed down. Further attacks had been suppressed, vanished, unable to form again.
Those who hadn't completely transformed into demons were all enveloped by a gentle force, slowly recovering, leaving the vigilant people around them astonished.
Perfect Life's breathing finally gradually stabilized, though he felt his steps becoming somewhat unsteady.
If that level of attack energy had directly targeted him, he wouldn't have cared, but this plan to save the entire city was still somewhat too difficult.
But that was fine—since mastering this technique, he rarely had the opportunity to attempt using it.
However, just as he relaxed slightly, he suddenly frowned.
It seemed... it wasn't over yet...
On the other side, Pride was never one to drag things out. After splitting the opponent's body and dealing with their death throes counterattack, he swung his axe directly at the opponent's head!
The massive demon head fell with a thud, hitting the ground and rolling away with a rumble.
Yet, just as Perfect Life sensed, everything was still not over.
After being controlled to avoid fighting Lu Ce, the Hell Envoy had channeled all its energy into slaughter.
When the last trace of life dissipated under Pride's battle axe, the massive body—the already dead corpse—began to shrink violently.
All the fluids in its body seemed to be squeezed dry at that moment, madly gathering, absorbing, flying upward into the sky.
The purple-black blood flow, no matter how much there was, couldn't be that extensive, but during its ascent, it swelled like a river expanding from its source.
After flying high into the sky, it looked like a great river's waters flowing from the ground to the heavens, becoming an inverted waterfall!
Pride didn't pay attention to this thing but instead walked slowly to the Hell Envoy's corpse and picked up the half beacon.
In just the time it took for this action, the purple-black blood river had already finished flowing.
As if worried that Pride would react, everything happened very quickly. The next second, the blood river disappeared, and Gen City's sky became covered with dark clouds!
Looking up at this thing, just as Perfect Life knew, everything was still not over.
There was no preparation time at all. The second after dark clouds enveloped the entire city, torrential rain poured down.
The black raindrops carried corrosion, corruption, and death. But Perfect Life, who had just exerted himself, was somewhat drained now.
As for the other New Saints, though they all sensed something wrong and raised protective barriers, they couldn't cover the entire city.
Most top players wouldn't deliberately practice such large-scale offensive or protective abilities because they were basically useless in the game.
Feeling that "Sin" probably couldn't be relied on now, Perfect Life's face turned slightly pale as he prepared to force himself to act again.
And at that moment, the rain in the air, before even hitting the ground, suddenly began swirling upward.
All the water flows in the city, just before landing, started reversing upward, making the entire space extremely chaotic, blurring the distinction between ground and sky.
Perfect Life: ?
Perfect Life was momentarily stunned, turning to look in one direction.
Black water gathered in wisps from the city's ground, converging upward into the sky.
Above the city, it gradually coalesced into human form—Chiyo Eine.
Her eyes had completely turned black, her hands stirring in the air, preventing the black rain from falling, forming a pond high in the sky.
Or rather, forming an aerial lake the size of a city!
Seizing this opportunity, Perfect Life raised his hands upward, pushing the massive Eight Trigrams from the ground into the sky.
It collided with the black lake, mutually canceling each other out.
He turned to look at Chiyo Eine, nodding slightly in acknowledgment.
Chiyo Eine glanced at him, then turned her head away without speaking.
The thought that her actions were actually equivalent to helping "Sin" made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
But Xie Antong had already told her to properly act as a Saint for now, and she felt this city-wide slaughter should be stopped as well.
So, she still appeared.
Above Gen City now was a once-in-ten-thousand-years spectacle—the black lake in the sky and the Eight Trigrams mutually annihilating each other, while above them loomed dark clouds, making the entire sky appear black.
The next second, a golden light split the sky, a golden pillar soaring upward. Pride stood within the light pillar, holding his battle axe high, like a deity of this realm.
The two assembled beacons had combined into one, and now he was using Pride's power, combined with the Broken Divine Weapon, to forcibly seal the city.
Boom!
A dull sound reverberated throughout the city, like a bell announcing the arrival of a new world.
The entire world was refreshed in an instant—black water, thorns, churning ground, dark clouds—all disappeared in a flash, smoothed away by a special power.
Simultaneously, Pride's soft murmur was amplified throughout the city.
"I've sealed this city."
"One-eighth completed. Your time... is running out."
Jiang Yuan looked at the instantly transformed scene, excitedly shouting angrily:
"Long live the Saint Lord!"
How the hell did "long live" even come out?!
Perfect Life's mouth twitched as he mentally complained.
Everything had disappeared. In the entire city, the only thing reflected in everyone's eyes was that golden figure holding a battle axe within the light pillar.
We did all the work, so how did you end up taking all the credit?
