Yue Lun seemingly suffered a small loss, but the Countess didn't appear as relaxed as she seed; Blood Qi was surging within her body, indicating significant internal injuries.
However, she wasn't alone here.
The stone soldier conjured by Mike Tea's ability quickly blocked the remaining Skywing soldiers, and a fierce confrontation began instantly. But facing the unending stone soldiers created by the life-refining process, the Skywing soldiers found their battle exceptionally challenging.
However.
If Mike Tea alone managed to block the rest of the Skywing, it left only the Third Legion Commander, Yue Lun, to face the Countess, the leader of the Hermit Order, and the Pirate General Night Owl simultaneously.
The capabilities of these three were at least at the Tier One teor level.
And that was without considering their hidden powers and the various Sealing Objects they carried.
Taking those into account.
The power of the three had quietly reached the Eclipse Moon Realm.
At this point, Yue Lun had no choice but to confront them. However, facing three formidable foes who had almost reached the Eclipse Moon Realm, he was not confident.
The only piece of good news.
Was that the leader of the Hermit Order and Night Owl hadn't attacked with full force yet.
The leader of the Hermit Order was observing coldly from the sidelines without intervening, and Night Owl was rely holding a uniquely shaped Prison Spear.
Only the Countess was directly confronting Yue Lun.
"Quick battle, must eliminate one first. Obviously, these cultists don't truly trust one another, so they're holding back, unwilling to go all out, afraid of the others turning against them."
Yue Lun saw the situation clearly.
The cult leaders weren't unified; they were wary of each other.
And they knew how deceitful and contemptible the others could be, so they couldn't let their guard down.
This was his opportunity.
Suddenly, Yue Lun unleashed a surge of Blood Qi, charging fiercely at the Countess standing in the middle of the altar.
A dragon of Blood Qi emanated from him.
Wherever the Blood Qi passed.
A scorched trail appeared on the ground.
The Countess's eyes turned cold, as two bat-like wings unfurled behind her, entirely black, with a gigantic bat shadow appearing behind her.
The bat let out a long screech, swallowing the Blood Qi dragon whole.
Instantly.
The formidable attack vanished without a trace.
The Countess's face flushed.
However.
No other abnormalities appeared.
After missing his strike, Yue Lun drew the huge sword from his back, stomping heavily on the ground, creating cracks, and then shot forward like an arrow, reaching above the Countess, the sword descending like a waterfall.
Creak!
Blood Qi surged violently.
The Countess's expression changed as the bat shadow opened its mouth again, attempting to bite Yue Lun.
However.
This strike was not aid at the Countess, but at the Seven Coiled Sculpture on the square.
Yue Lun knew that the most important thing now was to keep these people here; he was just the vanguard of the Free Federation, and if he held on for a while, more powerful forces would arrive.
By then, there's no way this group could cause much trouble.
So.
As long as he disrupted the ritual, preventing them from entering the Aerial Garden, he would achieve his goal, and then he could just stall them.
Creak.
Intense sword light fell like a torrential rain upon the Seven Coils sculpture, creating crack after crack. With Yue Lun's full-force slash, the sculpture, having endured countless years of erosion, could no longer withstand such terrifying attacks.
But at this mont.
The Countess, her face twisted with rage, shouted, "Stop! You have no idea what you're doing!"
Yue Lun remained calm: "I know, and I understand very well that as long as I interrupt your ritual, then it's all over.
This is the Seven Coils Ruins.
But the ruins are within Central City.
You can forget about escaping."
The Countess's eyes filled with a venomous glare.
And at this instant.
The Seven Coils sculpture completely shattered, turning into fragnts, and blood began to flow out from those stones.
The bizarre occurrence startled many.
It was as if the Countess's spilled blood was now overflowing.
"Damn it, are you all not going to act? Or shall we all be trapped here until Seven Coils' spirituality is entirely lost, and we can't enter?
There's still a chance to fix this.
But you all need to go all out, keep him occupied."
The Countess pointed at Yue Lun.
The leader of the Hermit Order and Pirate General Night Owl grasped the seriousness of the situation. They indeed hadn't wanted to act before, but didn't foresee Yue Lun destroying the sculpture, directly challenging their shared interests.
At once.
The two moved towards Yue Lun.
Strong spirituality continued to spill out, exerting enormous ntal and spiritual pressure on Yue Lun.
The Countess actually began to manipulate the blood on the ground, directing it back to the sculpture, and the shattered sculpture slowly started to heal and join back together.
But at this mont, an unforeseen change erupted.
A strange noise ca from the sky.
The Countess looked up to see a pitch-black Demon Blade falling like a teor, smashing the near-reford sculpture to pieces.
The black aura surrounding the Demon Blade clashed with the blood seeping from the sculpture, emitting a hissing white smoke where they t.
"No!"
The Countess let out a piercing scream, more painful than when Yue Lun had destroyed the sculpture.
Because this ti.
The sculpture had no chance of recovery.
The black Demon Blade bore a force equal to the sculpture's, belonging to another deity. The mysterious and chaotic sensation obviously originated from the Black Moon.
"Black Moon Apostle? Do you really want us all to die for comfort?"
The Countess looked towards the sky.
A black dot rapidly expanded, finally landing heavily where the sculpture shattered, perfectly extracting the Demon Blade.
Baiyu revealed a faint smile, "Seems like I wrecked your plans, but I'm not sorry for it."
The Countess quickly cald her extre rage, her eyes fixed on Baiyu, making no hasty moves.
From Baiyu.
She felt a very familiar presence.
Frank brothers!
Previously, the Frank brothers ntioned dealing with private grudges, and the Countess didn't give it much thought. With the suppression of the Blood Realm, they should easily resolve it with their strength.
But clearly, she was wrong.
Now the Frank brothers were missing, and this kid confidently appeared here, the result was obvious.
Black Moon Apostle.
In this age, they were rare.
Those who survived as Black Moon Apostles possessed formidable strength, and furthermore, Baiyu exuded power that greatly disturbed her.
"You, a Black Moon Apostle, plan to help them?"
After a mont of silence.
The Countess coldly spoke.
