Acai's Sky

Chapter 956: Immortal Village Guardian 3

He looked at his arms covered with scars. Those hideous scars began to heal under the infiltration of the vitality, and the chain lines that were raging under the skin gradually faded.

The copper bell around the waist suddenly made a clear sound, no longer the hoarse vibration before, but as clear as the morning bell and evening drum.

However, an angry roar came from the depths of the black fog, and the entire space began to distort.

The ghosts reorganized in the destruction, turning into even larger monsters - their bodies merged into a giant hand a hundred meters high, with dark blue veins surging under the skin, and when the five fingers were spread out, each fingertip was wrapped with chains.

The giant hand slammed towards the ancestral hall, and spider-web-like cracks instantly appeared on the ground.

The veins on Ah Cai’s forehead bulged, and her hair danced wildly due to the force.

Golden runes rose from the ground and condensed into the shadow of a towering ancient tree above her head.

The treetops stretch to the clouds, and thousands of rays of light hang down among the emerald green branches and leaves, each ray of light containing vigorous vitality.

The shadow of the ancient tree swung out its branches, which collided with the giant hand with a loud bang. The strong air wave blew the village defender away several meters and hit him heavily against the wall of the ancestral hall.

"Break it for me!" Acai's roar was filled with unquestionable majesty.

The shadow of the ancient tree burst out with brilliant light, and countless golden spots shot towards the giant hand like meteors.

The monster made up of ghosts let out a shrill wail, its skin began to peel off piece by piece, and its dark blue blood vessels sizzled under the erosion of the breath of life, sending bursts of white smoke rising.

The village guard struggled to his feet, his eyes filled with shock and hope. He gripped his hatchet tightly and rushed into the black fog, the copper bell on his waist tinkling with a passionate rhythm as he ran, as if accompanying Ah Cai's strength.

The golden runes around Ah Cai suddenly burst out, pouring down like an upside-down galaxy.

The shadow of the ancient tree took root in the earth, and its branches penetrated the clouds with overwhelming force. Thousands of green vines grew wildly along the dark blue blood vessels of the giant hand. Wherever it passed, the roar of the ghosts turned into the sound of bubbles bursting.

The chain patterns under the giant hand's skin were crushed into powder by the vigorous vitality, and the entire black mist turned into drifting ashes with a rustling sound.

The village guard looked at his arms covered with blood scabs. The centipede-shaped scars were fading at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He trembled as he tore open his collar, and the cluster of blue flames on his chest was extinguished in the golden waves, replaced by the healthy color of new skin.

The copper bell at the waist rang out clearly, shattering the remaining ghosts in the air. Sparks flew to the ground, and instantly a patch of bright blue flame orchids bloomed.

Ah Cai's hair moved without wind, and the dark golden symbols wrapped around her body turned into thousands of streams of light, shooting like arrows towards every crack in the debris.

The originally gray sky cracked, and sunlight poured down like a waterfall. Green waves surged on the scorched earth - moss quickly climbed all over the broken walls, and rotten beams and pillars sprouted emerald green shoots. Even the ashes of ghosts suspended in the air were wrapped in the sprouts and turned into nutrients to nourish all things.

The entire debris field trembled violently, like a giant beast awakening from its slumber. Giant trees rose from the ground, their aerial roots dangling from their canopies weaving emerald curtains in the air.

The cliff that was originally barren suddenly bloomed into a waterfall of crimson flowers, and new plants quickly grew where the petals fell.

The villagers stared in amazement at the scorched earth in front of the ancestral hall. A hundred-meter-tall sycamore tree broke through the ground, and glowing spirit birds lived among its branches. Their chirping resonated with the runes surging around Acai's body, playing a hymn of life between heaven and earth.

When the last trace of black mist was swallowed by the green, Acai slowly opened his eyes.

Small pink and white flowers emerged from the cracks in the blue bricks under her feet, and each petal was emitting a soft halo of light. The fragments of the continent looked like a three-dimensional painting inlaid in an emerald frame.

The village guard knelt on one knee, his hatchet stuck into the soil. The vines wrapped around the blade blossomed into golden spikes of flowers. "Is this... is this the legendary magic?"

When he looked up, his peach blossom eyes flashed with a brighter light than ever before, and from the new forest in the distance, the grand echo of the roar of hundreds of beasts could be heard faintly.

Mysterious lines on the ground slowly lit up with a faint blue light, spreading under the new soil like living blood vessels.

Ah Cai took a half step back cautiously, and the dark flame condensed again in his palm, and the dark fire made the ground flicker.

The village guard suddenly knelt on one knee, with a strange light in his peach blossom eyes. The copper bell on his waist moved automatically without wind, making a clear and ethereal sound, which perfectly matched the pulsation frequency of the ground pattern.

"It's the resonance of the seal!"

The village guard's voice trembled as he pointed his finger at the intersection of the lines. "The old patriarch said that when vitality and the power of darkness collide to the extreme, it will awaken the dormant ancient restrictions."

Before he finished speaking, the entire land suddenly shook violently, and countless golden light spots gushed out from the ground, interweaving into a huge rune formation in the air.

The runes flashed with light like the sun, completely burning away the remaining black mist.

Ah Cai's pupils suddenly contracted - a crystal clear crystal slowly rose in the center of the rune array, sealing a struggling black aura inside.

The breath was like a trapped living creature, twisted into a hideous face in the crystal. It was the black evil shadow condensed from the black fog earlier.

A halo of emerald green and dark gold flowed on the surface of the crystal, and every flash was accompanied by the black evil's shrill wail.

"It turns out that the core of the Black Evil has been hidden deep in the earth!" A Cai raised his hand to control Youyan, and the flame wrapped around the crystal like a chain to prevent it from falling.

Under the dual pressure of the energy of life and the strange fire, fine cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal, and the power of the black evil was being decomposed into tiny spots of light at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The village guard suddenly opened his collar, and the cluster of blue flames on his chest turned into streams of light and sank into the crystal.

Veins bulged all over his body, and the centipede scar on the back of his neck split open again, but instead of gushing out black blood, a golden liquid of light flowed out.

"Use the blood of the villagers to strengthen the final seal!"

He roared and stabbed the hatchet into his palm. Blood dripped onto the surface of the crystal, and golden thorn patterns instantly bloomed, completely imprisoning the Black Evil.

With an earth-shattering roar, the crystal exploded and turned into a sky full of stars.

On the new land, countless tender buds broke through the soil and bloomed into colorful flowers that had never been seen before.

Ah Cai stared at the slowly fading starlight in the sky when she suddenly heard a system notification chime in her head: [Ding! Successfully suppressed the Black Evil Core, obtained 1 Sealing Power Crystal, and the Village Guardian's inherited secret technique - Blood Contract Chain!]

The village guard slumped weakly on the ground, all the scars on his body disappeared, replaced by light golden lines.

He trembled as he pulled out half a jade pendant from his bosom. The patterns on it matched perfectly with the crystal Ah Cai had obtained. "Perhaps... this is fate. The seal of Changsheng Village requires both your strange fire and the blood of the people who guard it."

At this moment, the entire continental fragments suddenly shook violently, and a crack appeared in the distant sky, revealing the light and shadow of another unknown world.

She knew that although the threat of the Black Demon had been temporarily lifted, the secrets of this shattered continent had only just begun to be revealed...
