Chapter 119 The Path of Defying Gods 11
These runes shimmered with an eerie light, radiating a powerful aura of energy that prevented Shen Ying from getting closer.
Shen Ying was startled and quickly withdrew her hand, but the runes did not stop spinning. Instead, they became faster and faster, and the light became more and more dazzling, illuminating the entire space with colorful lights.
The leader of the Dream Clan, Vann, shouted, "This is a protective rune! It has triggered its defense mechanism! Everyone be careful!" He quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations. The unique purple light of the Dream Clan surged from his hands, attempting to resist the power of the rune.
Cole and Mina were not idle either; they used illusions and summoned magical creatures to assist Vaan.
Magical creatures swirled around the rune, using their power to interfere with its operation, while the illusions created by Cole attempted to confuse the rune's energy perception.
Sion took a step forward, extending his right hand, palm up, from which a pure white divine power rose. This power coiled around the rune like threads, attempting to find the core weakness in its power.
Shen Ying watched nervously from the side. She knew that the situation was extremely critical. If they could not break the runes, they would not only fail to obtain the "Stone of Revelation", but they might even be injured by the runes' counterattack.
With everyone's concerted efforts, the rune's rotation speed gradually slowed down, and its light began to flicker erratically.
Seizing the opportunity, Sion increased his output of divine power, and fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, which was a considerable drain on him.
Finally, with a flash of bright light, the power of the runes seemed to be drained and dissipated into the air.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Shen Ying walked towards the "Stone of Revelation" again. This time, she encountered no obstacles. The moment her hand touched the crystal ball, a torrent of information flooded into her mind. She saw scenes of humanity's ancient struggle against darkness, and stories of love and wisdom that did not rely on gods. These images deeply moved her.
Meanwhile, in the shadows of the temple, a pair of eyes were watching their every move. It was a spy sent by Herak, who, with a sinister smile, was preparing to return and report the situation to Herak.
The leader of the Youmeng tribe, Fanran, slowly walked up to Saien. His purple eyes were fixed on Saien, his gaze full of inquiry.
In his eyes, Sion was initially just an ordinary human, but just now, the power emanating from Sion was like lightning piercing through the dark clouds in the night sky, allowing him to clearly perceive the divine power contained within it.
Fan Ran frowned, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes: "Who exactly are you? Why do you possess divine power? You appear to be just an ordinary human, but that power doesn't lie. What is your purpose?"
His voice was deep and serious, echoing in the silent temple tunnel, while the rest of the Dream Clan watched Sion in silence.
Shen Ying sighed inwardly, rubbing her forehead in exasperation. Of course, she knew why Sain possessed divine power—it was because Sain was the one and only god! But she dared not reveal this secret unless Sain himself was willing to expose his identity.
Seeing that Sien remained silent, Shen Ying knew he didn't want to explain, so she cleared her throat and said, "Van, Sien is my friend. I can guarantee he poses no threat to us, and now is not the time to discuss this. Our immediate priority is to deal with the changes and potential dangers that this 'Stone of Revelation' might bring. This fluctuation of power may only be the beginning. We need to be prepared. Who knows what traps or mechanisms lie ahead?"
Shen Ying's words temporarily put aside everyone's doubts about Sion's identity, and their attention returned to the "Stone of Revelation." At this moment, the light of the "Stone of Revelation" became even softer, as if responding to their approach.
However, just as everyone was relaxing, a muffled rumbling sound suddenly came from deep within the temple, and the ground began to tremble violently, as if some huge monster was awakening.
The leader of the Youmeng Clan, Fanran, changed his expression: "This is bad."
Cole and Mina immediately became alert, and the magical creatures swarmed around them restlessly. Shen Ying looked at Sion with a hint of worry in her eyes. Sion looked at Shen Ying with gentle eyes and softly comforted her, "Don't be afraid."
The rumbling grew closer, and a massive black shadow slowly emerged from the depths of the tunnel. It was a colossal puppet composed of ancient rocks and mysterious runes, its every step causing the ground to tremble. An eerie red light flickered in the puppet's eyes. It seemed to lack consciousness, merely acting on its instinct to protect the temple, launching an attack on Shen Ying and the others.
The members of the Youmeng Clan immediately unleashed their magic, various lights intertwining and shooting towards the puppet. However, these attacks only sparked a burst of sparks when they hit the puppet, without causing any real damage.
Shen Ying gritted her teeth, preparing to find the puppet's weakness, while Sain slowly raised his hands, preparing to use his divine power again to fight against this sudden threat.
Sion's divine power surged, transforming into a dazzling shield of light that temporarily blocked the puppet's attack.
Shen Ying observed carefully and found that the runes on the puppet's joints were slightly weaker.
“Attack the joints!” she shouted.
With everyone focusing their firepower, the puppet's movements slowed down slightly.
But it suddenly released a powerful energy wave, blasting everyone away. Sion steadied himself and prepared to counterattack.
Sain's eyes narrowed, and he formed hand seals, unleashing divine power that surged towards the puppet like waves, creating a series of divine power shackles around it to restrict its movements.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Dream Clan attacked the puppet's joints again. Cole used illusion magic to distract its vision, while Mina commanded magical creatures to tear it apart.
As the puppet struggled, runes flashed across its body, as if it were about to launch an even more ferocious counterattack.
Just as the puppet was about to launch a stronger attack, Sion suddenly increased his divine power output, and the shackles shone brightly, actually suppressing the power of the runes on the puppet's body.
As Vaan chanted an ancient Dream Clan incantation, the surrounding air began to condense, forming sharp wind blades.
He waved his hands, and wind blades shot towards the puppet's head like arrows, attempting to disrupt the puppet's energy core and coordinate with the group's attacks.
With everyone working together, cracks began to appear in the runes at the puppet's joints, and its movements became increasingly sluggish.
As the cracks in the runes at the puppet's joints widened, Sion's divine power swept towards the puppet like a surging tide.
The Dream Clan members cooperated fully, and Cole's illusion magic made the puppet's movements even more chaotic, while Mina's magical creatures frantically tore at the puppet's weak points.
Vaan controlled the wind blades that continuously struck the puppet's head, causing its energy core to flicker erratically.
With a final, concerted attack from everyone, the puppet collapsed with a deafening roar, turning into a pile of rubble and dim runes.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Shen Ying quickly walked towards the "Stone of Revelation" and carefully picked it up.
At this moment, the light of the "Stone of Revelation" was stable and soft.
Shen Ying's eyes lit up with joy.
