Chapter 495: Evenly Matched, The Sky Cracked
The finger shadow and the Ancient Thunder Tower collided violently.
There was no rumbling sound, not even the expected lightning.
At this moment, two forces were infinitely concentrated in confrontation.
"It blocked it!"
Everyone showed expressions of joy and surprise. The Ancient Thunder Tower had actually blocked the Demon Emperor’s finger.
But the severely weakened Demon Kings showed shocked and disbelieving expressions.
The Demon Emperor’s finger had actually been blocked.
What was the background of this tower, how could it be so terrifying?
Everything was quiet for two seconds.
Crack!
A sound like breaking glass rang out.
In the distant sky outside the ancient city, a huge crack appeared.
Beyond the crack was endless void.
A terrifying aura transmitted from the void, making all the career holders tremble.
The sky had cracked!
The collision between the Demon Emperor and the Ancient Thunder Tower had cracked the sky!
The power of the two was too terrifying, exceeding the limit that the lower space could bear, so the sky cracked.
Fortunately, the cracked location was still quite far from the ancient city, and the space crack only appeared for a few short seconds.
The shadow of the Demon Emperor’s finger disappeared, and the Ancient Thunder Tower returned to its normal position.
It seemed there was no winner or loser.
Lin Moyu suddenly appeared outside the Ancient Thunder Tower.
At this time, flames flickered in his hand, holding solidified Fire God blood essence.
Skill: Summon Elemental Lich!
The Flame Lich appeared in response, streaking across in a flash of fire towards where the Demon Kings were.
"Not good!"
The Dark Demon King shouted and tried to retreat.
Unfortunately, they were too weak now. Though they reacted, they were too slow.
The Flame Lich crashed into the Demon Emperor’s finger outside the space-time passage at top speed.
With a huge boom, flames exploded.
The Flame Lich self-destructed, unleashing an attack close to the pseudo-god level.
The five Demon Kings were engulfed in flames, screaming incessantly.
Normally, the Flame Lich’s self-destruction could hardly harm them.
But now was different. Now they were extremely weak due to the blood sacrifice.
The Flame Lich’s self-destruction was enough to deal them a fatal blow.
The Demon Emperor’s finger was also engulfed in flames, but it had no reaction, letting the flames burn.
This level of flames couldn’t harm it at all.
Lin Moyu had long anticipated this and wasn’t surprised at all.
"The Fire God’s fire!"
Lin Moyu seemed to hear a voice, but also seemed not to hear it, as if it were an illusion!
Then the Demon Emperor’s finger curled slightly, and the flames on the five Demon Kings went out simultaneously.
At this time, the five Demon Kings looked as miserable as could be.
They involuntarily flew towards the Demon Emperor’s finger as the space-time passage expanded at this moment, swallowing them up.
Then the space-time passage disappeared along with the Demon Emperor’s finger.
Lin Moyu didn’t try to stop it. In fact, he couldn’t have stopped it in time. Everything happened extremely fast.
The blood sacrifice had only summoned the Demon Emperor’s finger, and it only had the power for one strike.
Everyone in the ancient city breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had narrowly escaped death.
This finger of the Demon Emperor was too terrifying.
One finger had suppressed the entire scene.
Feng Yiming also felt as if he had survived a calamity. He flew to Lin Moyu’s side, "Divine General Lin, we owe this to you."
Lin Moyu shook his head, "If it weren’t for me, the demons wouldn’t have come to attack the city. Fortunately there were no casualties."
But Feng Yiming didn’t think so, "Killing demons is the responsibility of all humans. Divine General Lin is already a role model for our generation."
As a member of the Feng family, Feng Yiming’s level of flattery was several levels higher than Feng Xiu’s.
Lin Moyu said, "I’d like to study the Ancient Thunder Tower some more. May I have your permission, Colonel Feng?"
How could Feng Yiming disagree? He repeatedly said, "Divine General Lin, please feel free."
The Ancient Thunder Tower had been in the city for years, open for people to admire every day.
But there were few who truly had the qualifications to enter it.
Lin Moyu was one of them.
After Lin Moyu entered the Ancient Thunder Tower again, the military’s teleportation array lit up.
Three people appeared from the teleportation array.
The three had powerful auras, all god-level experts.
After receiving Feng Yiming’s call for help, they first went to the deep space, then returned to the upper space through a space-time passage.
Then they used teleportation stones to return to the Divine Summer Ancient City.
They had rushed over non-stop since receiving the call for help, taking only ten minutes in total.
They thought that with the Divine Summer Ancient City, it should be able to hold out for at least ten minutes.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived, the battle was already over.
Feng Yiming respectfully saluted the three, "Ancient City Army, Brigade Commander Feng Yiming, greets the three lords."
The three were god-level experts from the military. One was from the Feng family, named Feng Xingjian, an elder of Feng Yiming.
The other two were called Tan Xinxia and Tan Xinqiu, two brothers.
Upon arrival, the two immediately flew up to inspect the battlefield.
"Yiming, no need to be so formal. Is the battle over? Have the demons retreated?"
Feng Xingjian asked quickly.
In terms of family hierarchy, Feng Xingjian was Feng Yiming’s uncle.
His words also carried a casual tone.
Feng Yiming said, "Yes, fortunately Divine General Lin was here. Divine General Lin controlled the Ancient God Tower and repelled the demon army."
"Divine General Lin?" Feng Xingjian was somewhat puzzled. Among the Divine Generals he knew, there was no one surnamed Lin.
Feng Yiming said: "It’s Divine General Lin Moyu."
"Lin Moyu? So it’s him." Feng Xingjian had naturally heard of Lin Moyu’s name, and was even very curious about him.
The youngest Divine General in human history.
Killing the Flame Demon King before reaching level 48, creating a miraculous record that surpassed many god-level experts.
Wait!
Feng Xingjian suddenly said in surprise, "You said Lin Moyu came? Isn’t he only in his 50s?"
Feng Yiming made a sound of agreement, "Divine General Lin was level 52 when he first arrived, now he’s already level 53. According to him, he came to the lower space due to an accident."
"Where is he?"
"Still in the Ancient Thunder Tower, said he wanted to study it a bit."
At this time, the two god-level experts who came with Feng Xingjian had already looked around the ancient city.
They saw demon corpses everywhere.
Clearly the battle had been very intense.
It just ended a bit too quickly.
Feng Xingjian asked, "Yiming, tell us the whole process of the battle."
"Alright!"
Feng Yiming then recounted the situation in detail, making the three sigh repeatedly as they listened.
They had long known the Ancient Thunder Tower was very powerful. If one could control it, it would be enough to fight against god-level experts, even kill them.
They didn’t expect Lin Moyu to do it, and even actually kill a Demon King.
In the end, he even forced five Demon Kings to perform a blood sacrifice, summoning the Demon Emperor’s finger.
In the end, even the Demon Emperor’s finger could only fight the Ancient Thunder Tower to a draw.
The whole process was like a mythical story.
After listening, Feng Xingjian couldn’t help but laugh, "It seems we really are getting old."
Another god-level expert snorted, "It’s that Bai Yiyuan who’s lucky, getting such a good disciple."
"You have the guts to say that to Bai Yiyuan’s face? See if he doesn’t beat you up."
"Even though I can’t beat him, so what? I’ll still say what needs to be said."
"Alright, alright, you’re not afraid of being beaten up, you’re the strongest."
The three arrived at the square, exchanging words.
They had long seen the red light shooting into the sky, knowing it was Lin Moyu obtaining the second [Origin Rune].
As god-level experts, they knew much more information than Feng Yiming.
They knew [Origin Runes] couldn’t be obtained just by wanting them, nor by effort alone.
It involved more complex things that couldn’t be clearly explained in words.
The three could only envy him.
"Divine General Lin is truly blessed with great fortune."
"Two [Origin Runes], throughout history, there haven’t been many."
"And without exception, the worst achievement of these people was level 96, high-level god."
Even among god-level experts, there were distinctions.
96-99 were considered high-level.
Each level difference meant a world of difference in strength.
Like Bai Yiyuan and Meng Anwen, who had reached the peak of level 95, just one step away from becoming high-level god-level experts.
Level 98 was especially special. Just reaching level 98 was considered high-level.
But if one reached the peak of level 98, touching another level...
Though still level 98, the combat power would increase greatly. Such people were called half-step super gods.
Level 99 was also half-step super god.
As for true super gods, none had appeared in the thousand-year recorded history.
According to historical records, people like Lin Moyu who obtained two [Origin Runes] were very rare, and without exception their lowest achievement was level 96.
Lin Moyu would surely be able to reach this step.
The three looked at each other. In their eyes, Lin Moyu’s status had quietly changed.
In the Ancient Thunder Tower, Lin Moyu was deeply communicating with the thunder core.
The space where the thunder core was located was still engulfed by the sea of lightning.
When Lin Moyu controlled the Ancient Thunder Tower earlier, he discovered something different that aroused his interest.
