One by one, the healers cut off their connection with the 'group' so that they could heal themselves in case of emergency and even the queen was persuaded to quit the connection to keep her safe.
This strange lightning could absorb someone's life force and turn the victim into nothingness, as if returning back to dust in nature.
Such an ability could even cut off their racial advantage skill, making the target helpless without the 'immortal body' achieved from the shared damage and the linked healing skill.
As more and more healers went out of the ceremony circle and hid away from the black clouds, the celestials on the battlefield gradually felt the difference.
Those healers had to consciously use their healing ability to heal whoever got wounded, but now that they weren't included in the connection anymore...
The celestials still shared the damage they got to their physical body, but no one healed their wounded souls anymore, and the crazy underworld creatures immediately noticed this weakness.
At that moment, the underworld creatures madly attacked the celestials' souls, reaping a lot of souls in one go!
The celestials who were taken aback could do nothing about the injuries to their souls but the higher-ups instantly realized something was wrong.
"What's going on with the soul healers and other healers? How come they didn't heal us?"
The marshal used his heirloom to protect his own soul, but he couldn't protect anyone with his heirloom.
He trusted the soul healers to care for all the wounded soldiers with the linked healing that worked like magic, but now...
They were suddenly gone! Just what's going on?!
The other generals were also confused, but the queen, who directly faced the danger, didn't have time to inform the generals and could only hide behind her elite bodyguards.
"Have you guys investigated what's going on? How did the clouds turn black and have so much lightning inside?!"
The queen asked one of her bodyguards, and the team leader immediately kneeled on one knee in the air, far away from the black clouds beneath their feet.
"Reporting, your majesty. We don't see anyone threatening around our camp, but we speculate that this must be an attack from an ability user!"
The question is, what kind of Ability User has such an incredible ability?!
Even the queen was slightly intimidated and still had lingering fears about the ferocious lightning that could devour a celestial's life force.
From that lightning, she felt a power that no ordinary creature could have, as if that lightning was indeed from nature and was released by heaven.
How is it possible, though?
The celestials were the sons and daughters of heaven, so how could they be punished by the same lightning from heaven?!
The queen, who had little experience in war, was panicking at first, but the lightning only turned into an eastern dragon and returned back to the sea of black clouds.
It was as if the lightning didn't want to deal with them anymore after killing all their soul healers leaving only one soul healer and half their normal healers.
Yes. Those healers who ran away from the ceremony circle could indeed save their lives, but wherever they went, the lightning followed, and it was so fast!
Not even someone with a speed ability could match the speed of lightning when they struck someone, not even the celestial.
In just less than ten minutes, the healers were massacred to the point of only leaving weak ones.
The way they died was the same.
As long as they were touched by the lightning, their life force would be emptied within seconds and they would turn into sparkles.
If this continued, even the whole celestial would die under the strange clouds and lightning's attack, but surprisingly, the lightning only struck the healers before disappearing into the black clouds.
Still, even when the danger was suddenly gone, the queen was still afraid of using the clouds as the foundation of their base camp.
The clouds around her tent were still white, but the clouds around the altar and the ceremonial area were already dyed in black.
God knew what kind of terrifying thing would be lurking around the black clouds, right?
While the queen and the surviving healers gave up on the 'connection', the soldiers on the battlefield slowly received the impact.
The queen was supposed to stay still in front of the altar during the skill activation, but she broke free to flee the strange lightning attack.
A few minutes after the queen broke free from her ceremonial state, the brightly lit altar slowly dimmed.
The white 'pillars' made of countless holy threads connecting the healers, the queen and the soldiers also slowly dispersed into nothingness.
At first, the soldiers didn't sense this, but after someone was attacked by a ferocious underworld beast and their damage wasn't shared to the rest of the celestial soldiers...
The marshal and the generals immediately found something amiss.
"Quick! Find the queen! She broke free from her ceremonial state. Something must have happened to her!"
Damon only used his ability for fifteen minutes, yet he had already cut off the soldiers' immortal bodies, leaving them back to square one.
However, such a great ability full of mystery also had its own drawbacks.
After Damon used his cane for only fifteen minutes, his body, which was in prime condition, suddenly deteriorated, and the 'young man' instantly turned into a grandpa in his seventies.
If this ability wasn't used on the celestials with better physiques and souls, Damon wouldn't turn into such an old man within fifteen minutes.
In this way, Damon's previous unique ability also drained his own life force!
