The clear cracking sound was even clearer than the sound of the thirteen rings casting spells. Although most of the "Spark Source" was made from [active metal], it was not entirely a relic, so it did not have the characteristic of being indestructible.
On the other side, the "Infant Mother" also realized the danger of that white sun. The illusory light was erasing everything around her, and she wasn't even a thirteenth ring.
So the woman holding the baby directed the "Giant Warrior" toward the white sun, while she herself quickly fled away from the white light.
As the enormous golem lunged upwards, all its eyes, including the AllSpark in the center of its chest, flashed red at the same frequency, and the flashing speed increased rapidly.
After it was completely immersed in that white sun—
Boom!
The blood-red city and the surrounding sea of blood trembled violently, and a flash of light caused those outside the maze to close their eyes.
Although the labyrinthine lock did not break, after the light faded, in the very center of the blood-red city, the space of the real world and the space of the labyrinthine lock intertwined. The blood-red light and the desolate wasteland under the rain blended together, making the scenery seem like an abstract painting in a short moment.
The space was slowly repairing itself, but the "Colossus" replica made from the relics had completely disappeared due to severe damage. The source of the fire and all the demonic eyes on it were waiting for the next summoning.
"Therefore, the source of the spark on the golem is actually in the Guardian-level relic, Master Charles's Alchemy Manuscript!"
From the core of that chaotic space, Shad and Ellie reappeared. The little unicorn had just shielded Shad from the golem's self-destruction and was somewhat listless, but fortunately, it was unharmed.
Still in the state of fusion with the illusion, Shad patted her little head, then bit his finger and used his own blood to retrieve the longbow that shimmered with the red moonlight:
"Blood Moon Arc Light!"
The longbow was aimed at the direction in which the "Infant Mother" had fled, and the arrows were the Moonlight Greatsword, which combined with the power of Sylvie.
The rapier left a brilliant silver trail in the air, striking the "Infant Mother" directly in the back and blasting her and the object she was holding to smithereens. Knowing she would regenerate within the "Abomination's" original form, Shad turned and flew towards the besieged Bloodweavers.
Meanwhile, Adele outside the labyrinth smiled as the pre-prepared ritual began. Time slowed in her eyes, and then, in the reflection of time and space, she saw the traces left by the "Infant Madonna" at the moment it was shattered.
"This time, I've found you."
Adele turned and flew toward the source of the trail, remembering what the woman had said last Friday night.
Within the labyrinth, the self-destruction of the Colossus and the clash of the "Light of Annihilation," while not causing the labyrinth to completely collapse, have made it extremely unstable.
When Shad arrived at the location where Vanessa and the others were besieging "Helmons," this "Bloodthirsty One" was truly weeping blood. He clutched the AllSpark in his chest, seemingly struggling to hold on amidst the attack, but upon seeing Shad arrive, he immediately burst into maniacal laughter:
"Summoner of the Gods, I've been waiting for you! You've finally come! Without using the Fire Seed you possess, how much spirit do you have left? I can't leave, and I won't let you leave either!"
He withstood the attacks of the other three and plunged headlong into the blood-red city, which was mostly submerged by the river of blood. His body actually burrowed into the soft, red soil that felt like flesh and blood.
Thump thump~ thump thump~ thump thump~
A tremendous heartbeat immediately resounded from the depths of the earth, and on the surface of the "Crimson City," streaks of crimson light, like blood-red rays, extended outwards. A surging life energy spread throughout the entire labyrinth, truly imbuing this city, which was already seemingly alive, with life.
The 13th-ring warlock "Hand of Radiance" from the Church of Dawn's expression changed drastically; he realized what the other party was about to do:
"Helmons is a madman! He wants to use his own spark to corrupt the House of False Men, to use his own flesh and blood to assimilate the flesh and blood of the false men, and thus make the House of False Men a part of him!"
This was absolutely a spur-of-the-moment decision by Hermons in a desperate situation. No matter how crazy someone is, no one would prepare such a plan in advance. Even the Truth Society would not dare to carry out such a deep fusion with the relics.
The pseudo-people clearly did not want to be assimilated into humanity, and their fierce resistance made everything around them even stranger and bizarre.
Three enormous fleshy masses transformed into red suns appeared in the sky, while in the blood river rippling through the city, every second different faces and limbs appeared on the surface of the blood-red river and were then swallowed up.
A rumbling sound echoed throughout the city; every building in this flesh-and-blood metropolis trembled, touching and merging with each other, yet also separating within that merging. The city's landscape shifted and changed rapidly, as if someone had accelerated time itself.
No one present, including Shad, could forcibly stop Hermons' actions. The situation had now transformed from a battle between the Ring Warlocks into a battle between the Bloodweavers and the House of the False Ones.
The Bloodthirsty Ones would most likely perish, an outcome that seemed utterly ridiculous, to the point that Shad didn't believe they had no other tricks up their sleeves.
"You all leave first."
So he spoke to Vanessa, "The Hand of Radiance," and "Thunderfury," reaching out to place the somewhat listless Ellie into Vanessa's arms, then gently shaking her to let Sylvie emerge from his shadow.
Aside from the spirit transformed from "Blood Essence of All Things" used to unlock the maze, most of the spirit consumed during the spellcasting was paid for by Sylvie. Furthermore, Shad had been continuously using [Life Return], so his current condition was still acceptable.
"You all leave first."
He spoke again, and the witches and ring sorcerers nodded:
"Please be careful."
They then left with Ellie, quickly retreating towards the edge of the maze, leaving only Shad hovering above the still violently changing flesh and blood city.
The three crimson suns had evolved from lumps of flesh into fleshy masses resembling eyes, and countless eyes had sprouted on the ground at some unknown time. This was a manifestation of the power of the "Bloodthirsty Ones" infecting the [House of False Humans].
The past Adele said that the "Life Reversal" technique cannot be used indefinitely, otherwise the body will assimilate with the world, that is, the body will irreversibly turn into stone.
However, whether it was because Shad had high resistance to petrification or because this was not a normal world, the continuous use of this strange technique did not make Shad feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he felt that his control over flesh and blood abilities had become slightly higher.
Grace and Helen met everyone at the edge of the maze and helped them escape. When Ellie turned around worriedly, she saw Shad raise his right hand towards the sky, and the red moon reappeared in the blood-red sky.
As the crimson moon's blood-red light shone upon Shad, translucent, gigantic red petals appeared around him like an illusion. Then, as the petals solidified, they closed inwards until a massive, closed bud appeared above the vibrating maze.
"Miraculous Technique: Flower of the Corrupted Moon".
According to Daniste, this spell should have summoned a flower to hold in one's hand. The current scene occurred because Shad had poured almost all of the normal life force within the palm imprint into this spellcasting process.
The crimson moon gained life, and the enormous Flower of Decaying Moon seemed to materialize. Its closed petals emitted a scarlet color that was now clearly tinged with the dim yellow light from the Ring of Withering Fire.
Flesh and blood rotted, withered, and mutated; all power concentrated in the flower about to bloom. When those who had left the labyrinth looked back from beyond the sea of blood, they saw the moon flower in full bloom.
A thin crack appeared at the very top of the closed flower bud, and a light, a mixture of dim yellow and scarlet, shone down upon the entire world. Although the light was clearly radiating upwards, at that moment, all the flesh and blood within the maze were enveloped within it.
The flowers bloomed slowly, and as the feather-like, translucent petals fell from the void, the churning flesh on the city's surface lost its luster at a visible speed. The newly formed faces, limbs, and eyes, before they could even wriggle or resist, turned into soft, rotten blood and mud as the petals fluttered down, as if the entire city was melting.
The flower buds in the air stretched outwards in layers, the edges of the translucent red petals tinged with a withered yellow, and as each huge petal unfolded, a ring of ripples spread outwards.
Wherever the ripples passed, the melting and collapse of the flesh-and-blood city accelerated. The decay of flesh and blood reduced the city to a state of pulp, while the withering of flesh and blood caused the writhing walls of flesh and blood to quickly dry up.
The countless open eyes on the ground collapsed from their sockets, leaving only empty holes oozing a thick, dark red liquid. Even the three giant, blood-red eyes that had evolved from a mass of flesh in the sky were blinking frantically.
Crimson light bursts outward, attempting to resist the power of decay and corruption. However, when the light of the Blood Moon Flower descends, they can only rot like rotten red apples, until they turn into putrid blood rain and flow back into the earth.
Translucent scarlet petals danced in the blood-soaked city, the ground now a stinking pit of rotting flesh. The scenery within the labyrinth was rapidly fading, while the remaining fragmented cityscape trembled, like a dying person making its final struggle.
Vanessa and Sylvie gazed at the crimson moonflower, now in full bloom, and although they still couldn't see Shad, they both felt a strange sense of dread.
"Even if he were to do it all on his own, could he have achieved this level?"
