Chapter 1078: Chapter 494: Hell Monarch’s Plunder (Part 2)
Next, he tore open the second and third barriers with incredible speed.
Each barrier he tore open enhanced his power, making his gaze even more resolute.
When David reached the fourth barrier, the three Hell Lords finally perceived his presence.
They roared angrily, rushing out from their respective domains, attempting to stop the intruder who dared to challenge their authority.
However, David showed no fear.
He leapt up abruptly, his claws piercing like lightning through one Lord’s chest.
The Lord’s eyes were filled with shock and unwillingness as his body rapidly withered, his Law Core devoured by David in a single gulp.
With this Lord’s fall, his dominion fell into David’s hands.
David’s pupils gained a ring of ice crystal patterns, his breath carrying the domain of Absolute Zero, freezing the surrounding space.
David did not stop; he continued rushing toward the remaining two Lords.
His claws swung again, and yet another Lord fell at his feet.
This Lord’s dominion was similarly devoured by David, further strengthening David’s power.
The last Lord, seeing this, tried to flee in terror.
But David’s speed far exceeded his imagination, instantly appearing before this Lord, his claws piercing through the opponent’s Law Core once more.
With the fall of the third Lord, his dominion was completely devoured by David.
At this moment, David possessed the dominion of four Hell Lords.
Four rings of ice crystal patterns flickered in his pupils, his presence cold and mighty, as if even the void trembled under his power.
Yet David did not forget his purpose for this journey.
He turned and rushed toward Reina, who was drawn by the Ice Hell Core.
Reina was currently bound by a powerful force, her eyes filled with pain and helplessness.
David quickly reached Reina’s side, extending his palm to reveal a piece of Hell Core Fragment emitting cold light.
This was an additional gain from devouring the Hell Lords’ dominions, a fragment containing the power of the Ice Hell Core.
Without hesitation, David implanted the Hell Core Fragment into Reina’s body.
As the fragment fused, Reina’s body began to emit dazzling cold light, her painful expression gradually easing.
Ultimately, an ice crystal-like mark appeared on her chest, the “Eternal Frozen Heart” formed after the Hell Core Fragment fused with her body.
“Reina, it’s okay,” David said softly, his gaze filled with tenderness and care.
He knew the “Eternal Frozen Heart” not only relieved Reina’s pain but also granted her great power, becoming her protective weapon.
With Reina’s awakening, David also withdrew his Chaos Dragon Wolf form.
Standing beside Reina, viewing the still chaotic void, his gaze flickered with even greater determination.
He understood this was merely the beginning of his plundering of Hell Lords’ dominions, with more challenges and opportunities awaiting him in the future.
The coronation ceremony proceeded in a solemn and sacred atmosphere, the entire Church Court Square illuminated by dazzling magical light like daytime.
Nobles, scholars, and believers from various regions gathered on the viewing platform, witnessing this historic moment.
David, dressed in luxurious King’s Robe and a crown embedded with gems on his head, his gaze shimmered with determination and confidence, as if foreseeing his glorious future.
However, beneath this seemingly calm surface, a dark undercurrent was quietly surging.
Some high-ranking members of the Church had secretly planned for thousand years to achieve their undisclosable objectives.
They utilized the power of faith, collecting the devout beliefs of the followers, condensing them into a mysterious substance known as “Faith Crystal.”
These Faith Crystals contained immense energy, enough to alter the world’s pattern.
Just as the coronation ceremony reached its peak, the ground of the viewing platform began to tremble suddenly.
Immediately after, three thousand Faith Crystals floated slowly from the ground, aligning into a massive inverted cross shape emitting eerie light.
At this instant, the entire Church Court Square fell into a deathly silence, with everyone’s attention drawn to the sudden change.
David’s expression instantly became solemn; he could feel the mighty energy emanating from the Faith Crystals.
He knew this was no accident, but rather the result of someone’s meticulous planning.
Yet, before he could react, a terrifying energy wave burst forth from the center of the inverted cross.
In an instant of explosion, light and dark seemed to reverse.
The originally dazzling light was swallowed by a dark force, and the entire Church Court Square was engulfed in darkness.
A colossal shockwave emanated from the inverted cross, spreading to the surroundings, collapsing buildings and scattering crowds.
At that critical juncture, Lucia unfolded her wings of light without hesitation, tightly enveloping David within them.
Her gaze was filled with determination and resoluteness, as if she intended to use her life to protect David.
As the shockwave arrived, Lucia’s body began to emit dazzling light, trying to use her power to resist the terrifying energy.
However, the energy of this faith bomb was overwhelmingly strong, even Lucia couldn’t fully withstand it.
After enduring the first wave of shock, her body started showing anomalies.
Her skin became translucent, as if it could dissipate into the air at any moment.
Following that, her body began to particleize, transforming into countless light particles dispersing into the void.
David watched Lucia disappear before him, his heart filled with pain and despair.
He wanted to seize Lucia’s hand, but could only touch the scattered light particles.
In that moment, it seemed as if he had lost the entire world.
However, as Lucia completely vanished, an ancient Holy Scripture Page floated from the void, gently landing in David’s hand.
This was the only relic Lucia left for him, and her final safeguard.
David tightly grasped the Holy Scripture Page, as if he could still feel Lucia’s soul accompanying him.
As the blast’s aftermath gradually subsided, the Church Court Square turned into ruins.
The originally solemn coronation ceremony vanished like a bubble, leaving only boundless sadness and chaos.
Yet amid the chaos, David’s gaze became even more resolute.
He knew the sudden disaster was no accident, but deliberately caused by someone.
He vowed to find the mastermind behind it and avenge Lucia.
At that moment in the Church Court Square, besides David, there was no one else.
He stood alone in the ruins, grasping the Holy Scripture Page Lucia left behind, gazing at the still pitch-black sky.
His heart was filled with anger and determination, as if he intended to overturn the world’s injustice and darkness with his power.
Among the ruins of the Church Court Square, David tightly held onto the ancient Holy Scripture Page, his gaze flickering with complex emotions.
Lucia’s sacrifice sliced his heart like a knife, but he also understood he couldn’t wallow in misery.
He must rise up and find a method for Lucia’s rebirth.
At that moment, David suddenly recalled the Erosion Realm Book in his hand.
This was an ancient and mysterious book, said to capture and analyze the essence of the world.
David decided to attempt using it to capture the soul wave patterns before Lucia dissipated, hoping to find some clues within.
He cautiously opened the Erosion Realm Book, concentrating his attention on its pages.
As he focused his thoughts, complex runes and patterns began to manifest on the pages, seemingly resonating with the surrounding energy.
David took a deep breath, placing the Holy Scripture Page Lucia left him near the Erosion Realm Book, attempting to connect its energy with the latter.
In that instant, a miracle unfolded.
Lucia’s soul wave patterns before her dispersal were captured by the Erosion Realm Book!
These wave patterns formed flowing lights on the pages, intertwining to create a complex data network.
