Chapter 1247: Little Xie’s Breakthrough
An Lin’s footsteps faltered upon hearing this.
Little Xie also turned to look at the Night Monarch with a perplexed expression.
The Night Monarch put his palms together, and a powerful spatial fluctuation swept toward them.
In the next instant, An Lin and Little Xie appeared in an unfamiliar space.
There was a cold, blue fire here that appeared as if it could freeze one’s soul. They were burning gently in the darkness, lighting up the entire space with their cold light.
Around them, one cage stood after another, within which countless sinister devils howled and screamed.
The Night Monarch spoke in a faint voice, “They have gone beyond the point of no return. Not only are they hurting other living beings, but they have also even begun attacking their own race. Their last trace of humanity has already been wiped away, to the point that even I am unable to save them…
“Little sword spirit girl, if you want to obtain something from slaying these sinister devils, you are free to have a go. I was actually planning to take care of them myself soon anyway.”
Little Xie made her way toward the sinister devils upon hearing the Night Monarch’s words.
The sinister devils before her were even more twisted and insane than the ones she had seen. Boundless negative emotions swept forth like tsunami waves, threatening to drag everyone around them down into the abyss of depravity.
“You must be in a lot of pain. Let me help you find your release.”
Little Xie spoke in a faint voice that was only audible to her. She slashed her Evil-Slaying Sword through the air, and it instantly sliced through the sinister devil’s body.
“Roar… !” the sinister devil let loose a crazed roared before its body was annihilated into nothingness. It completely disappeared from this world. At the same time, a flow of energy fused into the Evil-Slaying Sword along the blade of the sword.
Little Xie closed her eyes and carefully savored the energy.
She could feel that she had recovered quite a bit of her power again, as if a certain deficiency in her body had just been supplemented.
“How do you feel?” An Lin asked with a concerned expression.
“It works.” Little Xie nodded as she continued on toward another cage.
Thus, Little Xie continued to repeat the same sword strike over and over again.
One sinister devil after another perished to her Evil-Slaying Sword.
Little Xie was steadily growing more and more powerful.
The Night Monarch had also noticed her transformation.
Gradually, the expression with which he looked at An Lin became more and more intrigued.
There were over ten thousand sinister devils being held captive in these cages.
Little Xie repeated the same motion over and over again, and before she knew it, she had slain almost all of the sinister devils here. Aside from the fact that she was steadily growing more powerful, nothing was really changing, all the way up until she cut down one of the few remaining sinister devils.
Boom!
A certain shackle seemed to have been broken.
Little Xie’s aura climbed explosively as vital energy surged for over five hundred kilometers in radius.
“What! This aura!”
The Night Monarch’s eyes widened with astonishment as he witnessed the scenes unfolding before his eyes.
The power of darkness within the Abyss of Evil transformed into a colossal vortex, which poured into the little girl’s body without any reservation, nor any end in sight.
Little Xie’s aura seemed to have put on a jetpack, and it elevated relentlessly, becoming more and more vast and ethereal.
A divine light surged as the space around them was shattered.
“This… The space I created was shattered?” The Night Monarch took a deep breath.
As the space had been shattered, An Lin, Da Bai, Little Xie, and the Night Monarch reappeared within the Abyss of Evil.
Dong Yang was struck by a sense of indescribable horror at the sight of the returning group, and he finally began to yell in despair.
“Ah… Don’t come over here! Save me! Save me!”
Everyone ignored Dong Yang.
The phenomena occurring around Little Xie’s body did not stop. The power of darkness flowing into her body became more and more vast and turbulent, as if she was trying to absorb all of the power within the Abyss of Evil.
The Night Monarch was finally starting to get concerned, and he pleaded with Little Xie, “I only managed to guide this power of the darkness here from the veins of the earth after much difficulty, please use it sparingly!”
Even though the power of darkness was a non-exhaustible resource, taking too much of it in too short a period of time could make the supply run dry.
Boom!
Little Xie’s aura elevated explosively again.
An inky-black divine sword appeared on her forehead.
A boundless black divine light began to sweep outward, but also enshrouding Little Xie’s body like a cloak of feathers, making her appear as if she were the Queen of darkness.
Her terrifying aura erupted forth, striking Dong Yang with a crushing sense of asphyxiation.
The Night Monarch stumbled back with astonishment on his face. “Divine dao manifesting as a sword, divine light manifesting as a cloak… Is this sword spirit trying to breakthrough to divine rank?!”
An Lin was also struck by Little Xie’s divine light, but he wasn’t harmed in the slightest. Instead, it was an extremely comfortable sensation as his meridians and bones were all being nurtured to a great extent.
“Is Little Xie finally going to become a divine tool?”
He was ecstatic for Little Xie. She had been stuck at the pinnacle of immortal tools, and she was now finally able to make her breakthrough.
Elsewhere, outside of the Abyss of Evil, the clear, blue skies had already transformed into complete darkness, as if eternal night were settling over heaven and earth.
All humans and members of the Ant Tribe looked up at the sky with shock and horror, where it appeared as if doomsday were about to descend upon them.
Even the Celestial Thearch, who was far away in the Heavenly Court, abruptly stood up, and he narrowed his eyes as he looked toward the southeastern region of the Kingdom of the Nine States, seemingly as if he could see the darkness in the extremely far distance.
“What terrifying energy fluctuations. What kind of creature is making a breakthrough?”
In the sky above the Abyss of Evil.
An inky-black pillar of divine light fell from the sky before descending into the abyss. This was an extremely volatile pillar of light that instantly annihilated everything in its path into nothingness.
All the way up until the divine light struck the little girl in the black cloak, upon which it was completely absorbed by her.
This time, vital energy was surging within a radius of several thousand kilometers. It was completely outside of the range that An Lin could detect with his divine sense, and it was probably outside of even the Night Monarch’s sensory range.
An Lin was getting quite frightened by this massive phenomenon.
This was the most exaggerated phenomenon he had ever witnessed.
This indicated that Little Xie was going to be absorbing an insane amount of energy.
Little Xie wasn’t going to blow up like a balloon from excessive energy absorption, was she?
An Lin was a little concerned.
Countless divine symbols and peculiar diagrams fell from the sky before merging into Little Xie’s body, as if she were being blessed by the heavens.
An Lin’s eyes were completely unable to keep up.
The Night Monarch was also completely dumbstruck. “You’re telling me this is what a breakthrough to divine tool looks like?”
Peace and serenity returned to heaven and earth only after an entire hour had passed.
A wisp of sunlight spilled down from the sky, piercing through the boundless abyss to shine upon the little girl’s body, making her soft skin appear even more glittering and translucent.
The little girl opened her inky-black eyes. This was an extremely pure black that seemed as if it were able to engulf all light from this world.
“Success?” An Lin asked with an animated expression.
The little girl nodded with a toothy smile. “Success.”
An Lin stroked his chin as he looked at the sword in the little girl’s hand with confusion in his eyes. “You’re a divine tool now, but why is it that the Evil-Slaying Sword is still so black and ugly? There’s no difference to it at all.”
Little Xie made her way toward An Lin with a fake smile on her face. “No difference? Don’t worry, I’ll show you how it has become different!”
A chill suddenly ran down An Lin’s spine, and his heart skipped a beat.
There was killing intent!
