531 Secret of the Ruins 5 (1/2)

Chapter 531: Secret of the Ruins 5

After the black tree man fell, three arch-shaped black doors had also appeared slowly on the walls of the cathedral hall, as though black flames had burned through the paper surfaces, the sides of the black doors were all ashes, mingled with black and sparks.

Garen looked at the Testament in his hand, and strode towards one of the doors, no longer looking at the other two.

Going past the black door, he entered yet another cliff, surrounded by a limitless black abyss.

The cliff was in a huge deep blue hole, freezing winds blowing through the air, making it unnaturally cold.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, Garen looked down, only to see a sea of pitch-black, with the vague hint of a roiling black mist. He was all alone in here, and there was a thick layer of transparent ice on the stone walls.

He took a deep breath, steadying his heavily injured body, and holding the ancient badges in his hand, he opened his palm calmly, then he closed his fingers down on it tightly again.

The Testament Badge instantly sliced a small wound on his palm, the blood flowing around his palm, and dripping directly into black abyss below.

The dark red blood drops bumped into each other and rolled about, scattering and falling into the bottomless abyss, disappearing in an instant.

As the blood dropped down, Garen lightly released his Testament Badge, and let the blood-tainted badge slide out from his hand, also falling into the deep abyss.

Whoosh!

Just then, a bit of blue lit up suddenly in the deep abyss.

At first the blue was only the size of a sesame seed, but in an instant, it expanded to the size of a fist, and in another instant, the blue abruptly rushed up from the abyss, a wave of ice cold blue air like a tide.

A giant ice blue bird, several tens of meters tall, flapped its wings and flew out of the abyss, suspended in front of Garen in an instant, its huge bright blue eyes staring at Garen on the cliff calmly.

The huge bird had a long tail feather, like the legendary phoenix, but it had an incomparable and terrifying icy air around it, instead of flames.

The blue ice layer on the walls around them kept growing thicker and thicker, and within a dozen or so seconds, the whole place had become a huge ice cave.

Clouds of almost solid cold white air surrounded the bird and Garen, singing lightly as though it was alive. That was not the sound of the wind, but rather more like a rhythm and melody.

There was still a lot of cold blue air roiling around, expanding, a cold blue current spinning through the air like seawater.

Garen raised his head to look at the giant bird in front of him, the huge blue wings spread open lightly, guarding him from the sides like a statue carving.

The huge bird lowered its head slowly, its beak approaching Garen, and opening slightly.

A dot of blue light fell out of its mouth, and hovered just in front of Garen.

The light had a hint of pure cold inside, Garen could feel that it was not just his body that felt this cold, just looking at that dot of light, even his heart felt traces of cold.

He reached out his right hand, and gripped the blue light dot lightly.

He felt as though the light dot wanted to bury itself into his body, and Garen did not put up any resistance at all either, relaxing his heart and spirit, only to see the light dot dart under the skin on his palm, utterly disappearing from sight.

As soon as the light dot vanished, the huge bird in front of him faded slowly as well, vanishing slowly as though it was an illusion. All that was left behind to prove it was not just a dream was the ice on the walls.

Garen took in a deep breath, and carefully checked his body, but discovered nothing.

He knew that he probably would not feel anything for a while, combining it with what the Cthulhu King said would happen before, he turned around decisively and walked towards the sealed room in the cathedral before.

Striding back to the cathedral, he glanced at the other two black doors, and walked straight towards one of the black doors, where the Cthulhu King’s scent lingered.

Walking past the black door, he saw the Cthulhu King just barely standing on the cliff, evidently waiting for him.

Garen tossed the Light God’s head, that he had been holding this whole time, towards the Cthulhu King’s direction, the head rolling to the Cthulhu King’s foot, but the Cthulhu King did not even look at it.

For world-dominating heroes like the three of them, they would never actually take such overconfident novices seriously. In the end, the Light God’s self-absorbent plans and plots would have no hope of succeeding even if he was facing anyone else other than Garen.

Precisely because he posed no threat whatsoever, they did not place any importance on him at all, forget facing him head-on or hating him.

”Just waiting for you.” The Cthulhu King looked even worse than Garen, although there was no longer blood flowing all over his body, the wounds of different sizes were still clearly visible, just one glance and more than ten wounds could be seen. Add that to his deathly pale face, and he had obviously lost a lot of blood, the fact that he could still stand out of his power and determination was enough to see how he inherited the title of Cthulhu King, proving that he was an impressive figure.

Garen nodded at him, and strode over, taking down the Demon Mirror that he had tied up, and threw it over directly.

The Cthulhu King also threw him his Testament directly. The two items crossed paths in mid-air, falling into their respective hands.

Catching the Testament with a smack, Garen strode to the edge of the cliff, turning around to look at the Cthulhu King. The latter smiled at him, and wisely retreated a long distance away.

Only then did Garen grasp the Testament again, applying slight force, so that drops of his blood instantly dripped into the abyss. After that he released the Testament again, letting it tumble down.

In no time at all, a dot of red light lit up again deep in the abyss.

The red light came with an intense whooshing sound, like the sound of an intense wind blowing at a huge fire, then the whole abyss just lit up suddenly, the piercing red light growing brighter and brighter, closer and closer.

In an instant, bright red flames sprayed out of the abyss, like a sea of fire, illuminating the whole cave fiery red.

In the middle of the flames, a huge humanoid figure, more than fifty meters tall, flapped its wings and pounced up.

The humanoid figure was covered in red bone armor, with bat wings on its back, and every time it flapped its wings, it would bring a surge of flames.
