Chapter 362 You gave it to the wrong person!
Sealing progress: 41%.
The Ruins itself began to adjust.
It no longer relies on a single attack to break through.
Numerous small physical structures fell from the sky, probing each defense point.
The Vermilion Bird is responsible for high-altitude interception.
White Tiger is in charge of clearing the high-speed ground.
Xing Tian withstood the direct pressure.
Each of the Tyrannosaurus Rex's attacks caused the dark entity to pause for half a second.
The energy flow rate of the Xuanwu Town continues to freeze.
Azure Dragon maintained two systems in the distance: one to stabilize the field for Nie Qingcheng, and the other to provide support for the sealing array.
The load is getting higher and higher.
Guan Xing said, "The Azure Dragon space module is experiencing a slight vibration, and the load has exceeded the normal limit of 130%."
Zhang Yan said, "We can manage."
Nie Qingcheng said, "My situation is stable here, so you don't need to allocate so much to me."
Zhang Yan replied, "No change."
"Zhang Yan".
"No changes."
Nie Qingcheng emphasized each word: "You can't move right now, yet you're still so hard."
Zhang Yan said, "I'm used to it."
Qin Xiao's eyes welled up with tears, but he couldn't help but say, "Yan-ge, can you two please stop showing off your love during the apocalypse?"
Nie Qingcheng said coldly, "Shut up."
Qin Xiao: "Okay."
Sealing progress: 49%.
The outer edge of the Ruins contracted.
The anomaly was detected immediately by the stargazing team.
"It's clustering!"
Zhang Yan sensed it.
The numerous scattered material attacks ceased, and began to converge into three stronger shocks.
The first strike landed on Xuanwu.
Xuanwu Town did not retreat.
Hard pressure.
The runes on the back armor lit up layer by layer.
The second arrow fell towards the Vermilion Bird.
The Vermilion Bird evaded the attack at high altitude, but its left wing outer edge was grazed, causing the Firewing to become briefly unstable.
The third route went straight for Zhang Yan.
Xing Tian stepped forward.
The white tiger pounced simultaneously.
The mechanical puppets also moved.
Nie Qingcheng did not allow the puppet to cover itself with its chest again.
She had the puppet collide with the attack trajectory from the side at the moment the white tiger pounced.
His left arm was forcefully inserted into that twisted structure.
The left arm disintegrated starting from the forearm.
She didn't make a sound.
Zhang Yan, however, sensed the oscillation in the feedback loop.
"Nie Qingcheng".
"I am here."
"Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt."
"to be honest."
"My hands are numb from the vibration."
Zhang Yan paused for a moment.
"Those are the puppet's hands."
"I know."
"Then what's wrong with you?"
Nie Qingcheng said calmly, "If I say it's numb, then it's numb."
Zhang Yan was speechless for a moment.
Sealing progress: 55%.
The dimensional rift has fully opened.
The sealing energy began to reach the outer layer of the Ruins' main body.
The edge of the black hole shows obvious inward curling.
Guan Xing's voice trembled: "It's effective! The sealed energy has entered!"
Qin Xiao shouted, "Brother Yan! Keep going! It's almost done!"
Zhang Yan did not answer.
The most difficult stage is when consciousness anchoring begins.
The closer the sealing energy is to the core of the Void, the stronger the back pressure becomes.
He felt as if his consciousness was being constantly pulled apart.
But he cannot relax.
The crack must not be allowed to deviate.
We must not allow the error in the coordination of the four spirits to increase.
Sealing progress: 61%.
Nie Qingcheng suddenly said, "Zhang Yan."
"Um."
"I'm wearing a ring."
"I saw it."
"You saw it on the tarmac just now?"
"Um."
"Is it pretty?"
Zhang Yan said, "It looks good."
Nie Qingcheng responded softly.
"Then come back alive and pick them yourself."
Qin Xiao didn't dare to speak.
Even the stargazers remained silent.
Sealing progress: 68%.
The materialization rate of the Ruins has decreased significantly.
But the pressure emanating from the depths of the black hole did not diminish.
Instead, it becomes more concentrated.
Zhang Yan sensed that the Ruins were beginning to abandon external expansion.
It is contracting.
It's not a retreat.
It is preparing for the next attack.
Sealing progress: 71%.
A system warning popped up forcibly.
The entity of the Ruins is attempting to make direct contact at the level of consciousness before its materialization is complete.
Target: The core of the host's consciousness.
Zhang Yan's consciousness suddenly sank.
The sounds of the external battlefield still linger.
Nie Qingcheng asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Yan said, "It wants to come in."
Nie Qingcheng's voice tightened: "Where to?"
"The level of consciousness."
"Can you stop it?"
"able."
"Consciousness contact is the most dangerous thing! It will bypass all the mechs and directly contaminate cognition!" Guan Xing exclaimed urgently.
Zhang Yan said, "I know."
Nie Qingcheng only asked one question.
"Can you still hear me?"
Zhang Yan said, "I can hear you."
"Then remember it."
"Um."
"I'm outside."
The next second, Zhang Yan's consciousness was dragged into a completely dark space.
Zhang Yan exists in two places simultaneously.
On one side is a sealing array.
Xuanwu Town.
Suzaku's high-altitude firepower.
The White Tiger and the mechanical puppets form a close-range defense line.
Xingtian and Tyrannosaurus Rex are under pressure.
Nie Qingcheng's breathing.
Qin Xiao's monitoring.
A report on stargazing.
On the other side, there was an endless darkness.
He stood there.
It has no body weight.
There is no direction.
Only consciousness.
The ruins are there too.
It has no physical form.
No sound.
But it is there.
The next instant, Zhang Yan received the first message.
That's not true.
It's a scene.
The City of Heavenly Crafts has fallen.
The four spirits are asleep.
The perfect Heart of Nature shattered.
There was no cheering amidst the ruins.
It has no name.
No one who came after knew about that seal.
All participants have vanished into history.
A thought came from the ruins.
"What's the point of this?"
Zhang Yan did not answer.
The external sealing progress has stalled at 71%.
Consciousness contact is disrupting the core flow.
The images continued to stream from the ruins.
Eight hundred years ago.
The previous thirty-seven people of Guantian Pavilion activated the Guantian Anchor.
They trapped the projection of the Ruins for sixty years.
The last person died at the center of the formation.
There is no monument.
No record.
There was only one very short line of text in the handwritten copy.
Successful despite delay.
Xu asked again.
"What's the point of this?"
Zhang Yan looked up.
"What are you afraid of?"
The darkness paused for a moment.
There was no response from the ruins.
Zhang Yan continued, "If you weren't afraid, you wouldn't have used the Zefeng Consortium."
"Cannot tame nodes."
"It won't penetrate Ito's skin."
"We will not bring our consciousness anchors into the city."
"It will not arrive ahead of schedule."
A slight ripple appeared in the depths of darkness.
Zhang Yan spoke very slowly.
You've been going in circles.
"You don't want to face it head-on."
"Because you know this time is different from 30,000 years ago."
"The heart of nature is more complete."
"The Four Spirits are usable."
"Observe the sky and fill the gap."
"Military evacuation."
"Nie Qingcheng is outside."
A second thought came from the ruins.
"She will die."
Zhang Yan's voice remained unchanged.
"You can give it a try."
From outside, Nie Qingcheng's voice came.
"Zhang Yan?"
Zhang Yan responded very slowly.
"I am here."
Nie Qingcheng immediately asked, "Progress?"
"Seventy-one."
"Is it stuck?"
"Um."
"What do you need me to do?"
"Need not."
Nie Qingcheng was silent for a second.
Don't lie.
"Really, you don't need to."
"Then hurry up."
Zhang Yan said, "Okay."
The consciousness of the Ruins was suppressed once again.
This time, it's not about the visuals.
It's an emotion.
fear.
exhausted.
give up.
lonely.
These emotions directly overwhelmed Zhang Yan's core consciousness.
There is no logic to it.
There was no explanation.
Once something is covered up, suspicion will begin to arise.
They questioned whether the seal was even meaningful.
I wonder what the point of saving this world is.
I doubt whether I can come back.
Zhang Yan stood in the darkness, without retreating.
"You gave it to the wrong person."
