Chapter 1192: Chain Reaction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The sudden shudder pierced through Meng Chao’s spine from the back of his head like a steel nail that had just been pulled out of a ten-thousand-year-old ice cave. Pinning him firmly to the ground, it froze the blood all over his body and even the surging biological electric current in his neural network.

At the next second, however, the flames that originated from the end of the world connected his blood vessels and nerves again. The transmission volume and speed of the nerve signals increased tenfold in an instant.

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and glanced at the top of the several dozen stone pillars that were emitting “brain waves.”

He could clearly see that a skeleton statue of the Rat G.o.d was standing atop each stone pillar.

The statues were in various standing, lying, or sitting poses.

However, the Rat G.o.d’s skeleton, including the horn on its head, was spread out like an antenna.

At the same time, a high-ranking priest of the Great Horn Army was sitting cross-legged under each statue.

They were sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, deep in meditation or a nightmare.

‘I should have noticed it a long time ago.’

Meng Chao found that the stone forest was in chaos. If the high-ranking priests were still conscious and had their independent personalities, as well as free will, they would have stopped meditating and jumped down to protect the Ancient Dream Saintess a long time ago.

Judging from their current appearance, it was obvious that they were controlled remotely by Ka.n.u.s, the Jackal, who was hiding in the darkness. They had been reduced to some kind of signal relay station and amplifiers.

“Ka.n.u.s, the Jackal, is implanting a killing command into the Origin Warriors’ brains and armor through the high-ranking priests, who are sitting cross-legged below the stone pillars.”

Meng Chao said to Ice Storm, “We need to cut off the connection between the ‘Jackal’ Ka.n.u.s and the Origin Warriors before the kill command is transmitted. Otherwise, these half-human half-mechanical monsters will turn into a.s.sa.s.sins who won’t rest until one of them is dead. Then, the Ancient Dream Saintess will be completely wiped out!”

“What?”

Ice Storm was shocked. For a moment, she could not keep up with Meng Chao’s thoughts that were jumping like a series of lightning bolts.

There was no time to explain. One second longer, and the transmission of “Jackal” Ka.n.u.s’ command to the Origin Warrior would progress by one more percent.

Gritting his teeth, Meng Chao suddenly stood up from his hiding place.

His breathing, heartbeat, body temperature, and the speed of his spirit energy in the vitality magnetic field suddenly soared to the maximum.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Dozens of thick, dark-red electric arcs suddenly burst out of his body.

Each of the electric arcs split into thousands of strands and intertwined with each other, forming a magnificent spirit armor.

It was like a bright red flower that had been watered with the blood of thousands of martyrs, blossoming around his body.

However, as soon as the spirit armor appeared, it was swallowed by the liquid metal-like substance spurting out of Meng Chao’s thirty-six thousand pores, and it was hidden under his totem armor.

Stimulated by the new spirit armor of the six-star Spirit Armor Realm, Meng Chao could equip his totem armor at least thirty percent faster than before.

Before Ice Storm could even take a breath, it felt that Meng Chao, who had just been s.h.i.+rtless and exposed his iron bones, had turned into a black iron fortress that was flowing with magma.

The two flame sabers that were forged by the temple’s Skull Crushers had been injected with more spirit energy than the critical point under the transmission of the chains around his arms. The temperature kept rising, and they turned into an almost transparent orangey-red color.

Even though Ice Storm had condensed a thick layer of ice sh.e.l.l on her skin in time, she could still feel the suffocating heat wave.

The heat wave easily tore through the ice sh.e.l.l and seeped into her flesh, internal organs, and even her bones.

It made it difficult for her to breathe as if she was in the middle of a raging sea of fire.

“This guy’s strength… actually increased again?”

Ice Storm’s heart was full of awe.

From the land of Holy Light to Picturesque Orchid Lake, Ice Storm had traveled far and wide. One could not really say that she had never seen an expert more powerful than the Reaper before her.

However, she had never seen an expert advance at such an exaggerated speed as the Reaper.

In just a few months, he had turned from a living dead person in the dark dungeon into an unfathomable monster!

‘Who is this guy? Where did he come from?’ Ice Storm could not help but mutter internally.

Then, she shuddered.

“If you want to live long, don’t easily pry into the secrets of a monster.”

That was what her mother, a witch, had said to her a long time ago.

Obviously, the Reaper in front of her was such an existence that even the witches would regard him as a monster.

Ice Storm’s curiosity was instantly torn to shreds and cast aside.

Nevertheless, another thought lingered in the depths of her mind, and it could not be dispelled no matter what.

“If he’s such a monster, he should be able to help me reach… ‘that place,’ right?”

Meng Chao did not know about the sparks that were bursting out of Ice Storm’s brain.

His entire attention was focused on the dozens of stone pillars.

The shape of the stone pillars, their relative positions, and the high-frequency oscillation that was triggered by the resonance of the tiny crystal components under the surging spirit energy ripples… All the information turned into a powerful torrent that poured into the pits of Meng Chao’s brain.

As his brain cells screamed, Meng Chao instantly completed a series of complicated a.n.a.lyses and calculations.

He also deduced seventeen possibilities for the collapse of the stone pillars in his mind.

Meng Chao chose the seventh option without hesitation.

It was the plan to blow up the most stone pillars in one go in the shortest time possible.

“Roar!”

Shua!

He roared brutally like a beast that had broken out of its cage. The chains, which had been burnt red by spiritual energy, immediately roared out like furious dragons, the two heavy sabers that were dragging the ends of the chains drew two crimson arcs of light that could blind one’s eyes in the air and dashed toward the two stone pillars on the left and the right.

Each of the two stone pillars was as thick as three to five people’s arms. Under the illumination of the morning sun, they were emitting a bronze l.u.s.ter and looked indestructible.

However, under the entanglement of the chains, hissing noises were echoing on the surface of the stone pillars that were as hard as iron, spurting out cl.u.s.ters of colorful spiritual energy.

It was especially so when the two flaming sabers, which were known as the Skull Crushers, pierced into the interior of the stone pillars.

It was more like a chain reaction that triggered the tiny amount of crystals hidden deep inside the stone pillars. The stone pillars, which were as hard as iron, were like towers built on a beach, facing the roaring waves, they collapsed and collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Meng Chao curled the corners of his mouth.

He waved his arms, and two ripples immediately flowed into the heavy sabers forged with the skull crusher through the chains like raging waves. Then, with the enhancement of the Blades, they turned into a destructive flame that could destroy everything in its path and pierced directly into the roots of the stone pillars.

The reason why the stone pillars were able to stand tall and erect was that they were a hundred times more magnificent than the karst landforms on Earth.

It was precisely because the stone pillars contained a large amount of crystals inside.

It could be said that they were the product of spiritual energy that was continuously ejected into the ground through the cracks in the ground.

Every stone pillar had the effect of amplifying the ripples of spirit energy.

Otherwise, the Ancient Dream Saintess and “Jackal” Ka.n.u.s would not have chosen this place to serve as the frontline command center of the Great Horn Army.

Naturally, the spiritual energy that Meng Chao blasted into the stone pillars was magnified ten times or even a hundred times in an instant.

Crisp cracking noises were heard from the bottom of the two stone pillars at the same time. They were falling toward the southeast and the northwest respectively.

It was not the end yet.

The other two stone pillars were standing in the direction where they were falling.

Meng Chao manipulated the chains with his ten fingers and transmitted the vibrations of different frequencies, subtly controlling the direction and speed of the falling of the two stone pillars.

They crashed into the third and fourth stone pillars without any deviation.

Boom!

The collision of the stone pillars immediately produced earsplitting explosions and even triggered huge bright spots in the shape of b.a.l.l.s of lightning.

The spiritual energy rippled like a torrential flood, covering the entire place in an instant and transmitting “Jackal” Ka.n.u.s remotely to simulate brainwaves. The information flow that was implanted with the command of slaughter and the nightmare picture was blown to pieces.

The third and fourth stone pillars were broken, too.

They were not ordinary stone pillars after all.

The tiny, powder-like components of the crystals that were mixed in the rocks were activated by the furious spiritual energy that Meng Chao had blasted out.

The two stone pillars turned into explosive barrels that could be triggered at any time.

When they crashed to the ground, colorful shockwaves that could be seen with the naked eye burst out.

The spiritual shockwaves swept through the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth stone pillars.

The collapse of more stone pillars triggered an even more complicated and intense chain reaction.

In the blink of an eye, at least thirty to fifty stone pillars in the whole stone forest were affected and collapsed.
