Chapter 2156: Chapter 1203: Breakthrough and Upheaval (Part 2)
Boom!
With the sound of a massive energy burst, the dark red giant tree trunk immediately spewed forth an even thicker black mist, rolling and rising in the air.
As the black mist gradually subsided, everyone was delighted to find.
Leo Ray had already blasted a hole through the giant tree trunk, as large as over a dozen square meters.
Amidst the swirling black mist, an ominous and bloody glow flashed within the malodorous cave, and at the far end of the hole, a dim crystal-clear light emerged.
Despite its extreme dimness, Leo Ray was still able to easily discern that it was indeed the light of the God’s Stone!
These God’s Stones were all enveloped in dark red, firmly embedded within the giant tree trunk, surrounded by vein-like energy flow patterns crisscrossing, clearly providing support to the entire Forbidden Tree.
Seeing this, Leo Ray tightened his grip on Rolanddel.
Possessing several God’s Stones, he clearly understood that God’s Stones cannot be destroyed.
Therefore, to break the “Root,” the only way is to forcibly detach the God’s Stones from within.
Sure enough, just as Leo Ray thought of this, a prompting voice sounded: “Lord, there are a total of twelve God’s Stones, as long as you detach them all from the tree trunk, you can destroy the ‘Root!’”
“You damn thing, don’t even think about succeeding!”
In astonishment, the mysterious entity abandoned Grey Elder and Elder Bing, carrying overwhelming murderous intent as it flew towards Leo Ray.
But just as he moved halfway, Yonir gritted his teeth and blocked the way. Although he couldn’t cause any harm to the mysterious entity, under the protection of the Energy Barrier, he desperately managed to hold off the opponent for a moment.
Boom!
With a loud crash, despite Yonir unsurprisingly being thrown aside by the mysterious entity, Grey Elder and Elder Bing rushed forward again, intercepting the mysterious entity once more.
With the desperate obstruction of the three Tier 6 Experts on our side, even though the mysterious entity was filled with murderous intent, it remained unable to approach Leo Ray by even a fraction.
However, amidst the perilous and intense battle, no one noticed.
Although the repeatedly intercepted mysterious entity appeared extremely frustrated, the corners of its mouth involuntarily lifted slightly, seemingly unconcerned about Leo Ray actually taking down the God’s Stones.
Sure enough, while Elder Bing and the others held off the opponent, Leo Ray and other experts on our side just barely took a few steps inside the broken hole when a change occurred.
An unexpected Absolute Defense Barrier appeared out of thin air, cutting them off again, preventing any further advance.
This sudden barrier shimmered with dark eerie light, from the bizarre energy waves it emitted, it was clearly extremely sturdy, unless all the experts on our side were to join forces, it would be tough to break through.
“Where did this barrier come from?!”
Louise, who was at the forefront, was stunned, her fair face full of confusion.
“Lord, that mysterious entity must have other accomplices!”
With a solemn expression, the voice blurted out: “I’m afraid the opponent, seeing you shatter the tree trunk, simply made the God’s Stones bait, thereby luring us in!”
“We should retreat for now.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray, also sensing something amiss, issued the command without hesitation.
Upon hearing Leo Ray’s order, everyone swiftly flew out of the tree hole.
Just as everyone left, another Confinement Barrier indeed appeared at the damaged section of the tree hole, almost trapping everyone within.
“Sir, these barriers seem familiar.”
Just as anxiety filled the group, Little Jie’s voice suddenly sounded in Leo Ray’s ear: “Although much stronger, they’re identical to the ones I created.”
“Identical?”
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray just turned his head and suddenly discovered in surprise.
Behind Little Jie, another ‘Little Jie’ suddenly appeared.
Although the newly appeared ‘Little Jie’ looked exactly like the previous one, the fair face lacked any expression, resembling a marionette.
In the blink of an eye, more expressionless ‘Little Jie’ figures emerged in succession, standing behind each powerful ally.
This rigid scene was undoubtedly very similar to the first time they saw Little Jie, but these ‘Little Jie’ were not bound by Black Chains, lacked facial expressions, and were completely different from Little Jie.
“These aren’t illusions, where did so many Little Jie’s come from?”
Beside, Little Illusion clearly noticed this unexpected scene and blurted out.
However, before her voice could finish, a change occurred again.
All around the ‘Little Jie,’ energy waves surged, clearly initiating some kind of technique.
For a moment, Leo Ray felt his feet as heavy as lead, even struggling to straighten his waist, as if burdened by the weight of Mount Tai.
Familiar with this sensation, Leo Ray recognized it as the same suppression he felt when Little Jie previously deployed the Confinement Barrier, but now significantly stronger.
Startled, Leo Ray exerted all his strength to turn his head.
Finding indeed a ‘Little Jie’ standing behind him, using the Confinement Barrier to bind himself within it.
It didn’t end there, Leo Ray quickly noticed.
Not only himself, but Little Jie, Louise, Diana, Lorenz, and the other three Stone Spirits also faced strong suppression, each immobilized by the ‘Little Jie’ behind them.
“Forgive this one’s incompetence, I do not know why these creatures look exactly like me.”
Little Jie, whose energy was already depleted, was almost crushed to the ground, teary-eyed and said anxiously: “I’m sorry, Lord, I can’t break free from their constraints!”
“This isn’t your fault, there have been signs all along.”
Looking at the frail Stone Spirit pressed to the ground, Leo Ray managed a smile and replied: “I underestimated the methods of that mysterious entity.”
And without further ado, Leo Ray referred to the events in the Silver Fire Kingdom Underground City.
Recall that Little Jie once doubted certain barriers were not her creation but used identical techniques.
Now it seems they are indeed the work of these ‘Little Jie.’
Yet what puzzles Leo Ray is why as the God’s Stone, Little Jie should be unique, so why are there so many ‘Little Jie?’ Truly bewildering.
“Your Excellency (Royal Highness Prince)!”
Upon noticing the sudden turmoil affecting Leo Ray and others, the battling Elder Bing, Grey Elder, and obstacle Yonir were taken aback.
However, the mysterious entity seemed unfazed, its lips curved into an impossibly bizarre arc, grimly saying: “I already mentioned before, you are merely trying to stop the inevitable, beyond your capability.”
As it spoke, the mysterious entity’s taunting expression became fierce, shouting harshly: “The game should end here, let me extinguish your final hope.”
With that, the mysterious entity’s immense aura surged once more, and it swung its war scythe with an extremely sharp slash, countless dark red blade shadows swept towards the trio like a world-shattering calamity.
Faced with such a terrifying onslaught, the trio could only grit their teeth and choose avoidance.
Yet during this gap, the mysterious entity’s speed reached an unprecedented level, directly breaking through the trio’s barrier, carrying immense killing intent towards Leo Ray.
At this point, their intention was unmistakably clear.
Clearly intending to first eliminate the team’s absolute core, Leo Ray, and then sequentially take out the other allies.
Realizing the intent, Elder Bing and the other three reacted swiftly, simultaneously flying towards Leo Ray, attempting to intercept.
But due to the mysterious entity’s overwhelming speed, they couldn’t keep up.
In almost an instant, the grinning mysterious entity appeared before Leo Ray, raising its war scythe flashing with deadly ominous light.
