At tis, it would expand and diffuse, like a canopy of light covering the entire Thorn Graveyard, flowing with starlight, but the canopy was covered with black, vein-like energy cracks.
More often, it was in a struggling, chaotic state, with light and shadow fiercely clashing and annihilating within it, emitting silent screams, as if a trapped, contaminated, incomplete will was wailing in pain.
“Could it be... that ball of light is the Light Patrol Throne?”
Mingxi asked herself uncertainly, and of course, she was also asking Guangguang.
“Master, it should be, but it, like those Transcendent creatures, has been contaminated by chaotic energy, negative emotions, and so on, which is why it cannot maintain its original form.”
Mingxi sighed, “The Augus Royal Family is truly sinful. They were uniquely favored by the Ashura, yet they didn't know how to cherish it. Not only did they conceal their existence, but they also used inhumane thods like sacrifice to guard this hidden treasure land.
Ultimately, even the most important royal inheritance, the Throne, turned into this ghostly appearance.
Tragic!”
Guangguang agreed, “They are simply reaping what they sowed.”
“Master, according to analysis, the Light Patrol Throne is indeed a very powerful divine artifact. Although it is currently contaminated, it should be able to return to normal once contracted.
Why don't you try to contract it?”
Mingxi: “Doesn't the Light Patrol Throne only recognize the Augustus bloodline?”
“What if it succeeds? You can even contract the star god scepter, so there's not absolutely no possibility of contracting the Light Patrol Throne.”
Guangguang urged again: “Give it a try? Anyway, your Drawing Spirit 【None】 item can lift the karmic rules, so even if you violate the agreent, you won't be killed by Wanlv Town Town.”
Mingxi, however, shook her head firmly: “My agreent with Regina is to do my best to help her retrieve the Light Patrol Throne, not to help her contract the Light Patrol Throne.
One can be greedy, but one must never lose integrity and abandon principles.”
“Alright, it's just a re divine artifact. Master, you're not short of one or two.”
Guangguang was quite Versailles.
Mingxi: “...”
Divine artifacts, she was still short of them.
“Roar—!!!”
A roar full of malice and madness exploded from the top of the Thorn Mountain.
Accompanied by the grating sound of thorns rubbing, a massive figure slowly stood up!
It was not a physical creature, but an anomalous existence ford by the aggregation of all the withered thorns and fragnts of shattered star crystals that made up the Thorn Mountain, as well as the light and shadow energy emanating from the light mass suspected to be the Light Patrol Throne.
Its form was blurry and distorted, its main body resembling the outline of a giant, over twenty ters tall, composed of countless intertwined thorns.
The torso was embedded with shattered star crystals, reflecting chaotic light spots.
Its head was a constantly swirling mass of energy, mixed with turbid light and thick shadows, and two crimson eyes, like those from the abyss, locked onto Mingxi and Erald Green.
Most unsettling were its arms, entirely composed of boiling, contaminated light and shadow energy; the left arm was like flowing, incandescent magma, and the right arm was like solidified, pitch-black asphalt!
As its arms swung, they brought forth chaotic energy currents that tore space and resentful screams that twisted the soul!
“This place is really effing ridiculous! The Light Patrol Throne actually gave birth to an Aberrant Guardian after being contaminated. Its instinct should be to destroy everything that tries to approach the Throne!”
Guangguang's voice carried an incomprehensible exclamation.
“Master, you must be careful. It has at least the strength of a Venerable-level Transcendent creature!”
Mingxi was also helpless.
This hidden treasure land was not just dangerous; it was practically a hell-difficulty dungeon.
‘Clearing’ this dungeon would definitely be ten tis harder than Regina said!
As Guangguang warned, the Aberrant Guardian's crimson eyes had already launched an attack.
Its corrupted light arm suddenly lifted, and a beam of light, spiralingly interwoven with turbid white light and pitch-black shadows, instantly blasted towards Mingxi and Erald Green!
Where the beam passed, even ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) space groaned, leaving strange traces of charred and frozen interweaving.
“Erald Green, you recover first, I'll deal with it!”
Mingxi shouted, shielding Erald Green, who was still absorbing the potion to recover, behind her.
Facing this world-destroying beam of light, there was no fear in her eyes, only extre calmness!
She gripped the Miao Sword tightly with both hands, the blade humming!
All her strength erupted like a volcano, pouring into the blade without reservation.
Mingxi's figure transford into a blurry streak of light, eting the beam.
Of course, she wasn't trying to directly confront the light beam, but rather, with a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, she precisely and continuously unleashed nine slashes along the beam's path!
Each slash struck the most unstable and crucial folded node of the beam's energy structure!
“Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!”
The blade light was like electricity, and space seed to be folded and dislocated layer by layer by an invisible force.
That terrifying destructive light beam, under Mingxi's miraculous swordsmanship, was forcibly cut, twisted, and guided!
Most of the energy was channeled into the cracks of the distorted space, being diminished and devoured.
The remaining Impact wave hit the Senluo Barrier set up by Erald Green, but this energy was still vast. After shattering the Senluo Barrier, it struck the back of her blade.
“Crack... crack...”
The Miao Sword let out a groan of unbearable strain, finally shattering into dust, and Mingxi was also violently sent flying.
Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
However, with Erald Green's Life Sharing, she wouldn't be severely injured.
“Roar!”
The Aberrant Guardian seed enraged, its corrupted shadow arm violently smashing into the ground!
“Boom!”
Countless thorny tentacles, composed of vile light energy and corrupted shadows, burst forth like venomous snakes, coiling around Mingxi from all directions!
The tentacles carried strong energy erosion and soul-burning effects!
Mingxi moved like the wind, a new Miao Sword appearing in her hand again.
She maneuvered through the dense tentacle attacks, each flash of her blade precisely severing the nodes of the incoming tentacles.
But the tentacles were endless, and the Aberrant Guardian's main body was also pressing closer, its corrupted light arms once again gathering even more terrifying energy!
For a mont, Mingxi was in extre danger, her stamina and ntal energy rapidly depleting!
This Aberrant Guardian refreshed the list of the strongest opponents she had encountered.
At this mont, Erald Green, whom Mingxi had arranged to be in the rear, also looked grave.
“Not enough... still not fast enough...”
Erald Green kept muttering to itself.
It felt the energy slowly recovering within its body, and looking at Mingxi, who was engaged in a bitter battle ahead, a hint of madness flashed in its eyes!
The ethereal blue soul fire in its eyes reignited, and it made an extrely bold decision!
It took out a potion from the Ti Realm that was eerily translucent and almost white.
This was a potion it had made using several materials collected in the Thousand Devil Territory of Green Field Star, including even strange things obtained from dangerous places like Tower Killing and Bloodless Despair Abyss.
For example, monster flesh, or mutated dream昙 orchid.
The one in its hand was the only successful one.
Level unknown!
Effect... unknown!
