Nightmare's Call

Chapter 472: Conflict: Part 2

“Holyspirit King...” The elder still had doubts in his heart.

However, the Moonstone Crystal on his chest that was struggling to get away from him forced him to make a choice at this very moment.

Was it to needlessly die for the Moonstone, or to leave his doubts behind temporarily, and submit to the other side.

The answer was self-evident.

“Have you thought things through?” Lin Sheng could see the decision in the elder’s eye.

“Can you give me some time?” the elder smiled bitterly.

“Of course. Excellent and capable people should by right be treated preferentially.” Lin Sheng smiled.

They no longer had any reason to fight between the two.

The old man no longer displayed any hostility. After Lin Sheng healed him with holy power, he had personally experienced holy power’s inherently powerful healing capabilities.

And that made Lin Sheng’s claim to be the Holyspirit King even more credible.

The old man was named Ning Jia. He carefully described the situation of this desert to Lin Sheng.

A long long time ago, a divine stone called the Moonstone descended from the sky here, and bestowed upon countless of people a training method called the Moonstone Force.

Lin Sheng then carefully asked about the Moonstone Force training method.

He then got to know about the object as the Moonstone Crystal from Ning Jia, and that was the red gemstone inlaid in his chest.

Unsurprisingly, the so-called Moonstone Crystal was actually part of Moonstone itself.

It was a seed that consciously absorbed the life force cultivated by these people.

Grabbing on to the crystal, Lin Sheng let Ning Jia lead the way towards the other places to look for the place where the Moonstone had originally landed.

And nearby the place, Ning Jia finally saw that many Moonstone Force practitioners who had dropped dead onto the ground without any signs of combat.

The Moonstone not only absorbed their Moonstone Crystal, but also the entire life force of their body.

That allowed Ning Jia to see the true face of the Moonstone, and with the healing provided Lin Sheng’s holy power, he was finally determined to lead the Darkspirit Army and turn against the Moonstone.

This expedition did not last all that long.

After Ning Jia rebelled, with his great reputation and connections, plus the appearance of many corpses that had their Moonstone Crystal absorbed finally turned the desert Hidden Realm into the vanguard of the Darkspirit Palace at great speed.

While Ning Jia no longer had the Moonstone Crystal, Lin Sheng had bestowed him the Seed of Holy Power.

His soul was so powerful that the Moonstone had no way to completely drain it indirectly, and his holy power training saw massive improvements.

In addition, the holy power also nourished his aging body. While he had lost the powers and training he had once long had, the unique nature of holy power allowed him to compensate for with pure physical strength.

So, his capabilities did not drop that much.

He could still beat up the other Palatinates aside from Tenko Kasumi and was a tinge stronger than the Sin Dragon Matriarch.

Plus, after training his holy power, he too had joined Lin Sheng as one of the top elites under Lin Sheng’s command.

As the Darkspirit Palace army no longer had any reason to fight, most of them slowly withdrew.

With the God of War Ning Jia’s support, the Black Desert’s forces were fully mobilized.

Many of the weak ones that did not have the qualification to cultivate the Moonstone Crystal or those Palatinate-levels like Ning Jia who were too strong to be absorbed by the Moonstone. All of them driven by fear, fury, and having a mutual enemy, automatically gathered under Ning Jia’s banner, becoming an auxiliary force of the Darkspirit Palace.

They led Lin Sheng straight towards where the Moonstone was in this Hidden Realm, Blackgold City.

Now, their drive to destroy the Moonstone was stronger than Lin Sheng.

After all, this had affected their life or death.

At the same time, the stalemate of the Redwin sealing war that lasted for several days had finally ended.

And Redwin had officially changed their power of allegiance to the Underworld.

The Heaven Spire’s entrance was sealed shut as the open field outside was a scene of carnage.

There were no bodies, nor any traces of the magical circle deployed earlier.

Everything had turned upside down.

The entire land had seemed to be completely covered by a thick layer of red soil.

The red soil had completely buried all traces here beneath it.

Some of the powerful Darksiders broke through the tide of Blacktide monsters and went to the Heaven Spire to investigate the situation, but the Hidden Realm there was sealed, without any fluctuations that allowed entry.

Even the peerless Faldt had disappeared.

Some speculated that the seal may have succeeded, while some guessed that Faldt had managed to break into the Hidden Realm.

Regardless, a temporary calm had returned to the world.

...

The Heaven Spire Hidden Realm.

Inside the Snowfrost Hall deep within the towering white spire of the Heaven Spire.

The meeting hall had already been completely reduced into an underworld prison shrouded in gray smoke and underworld power.

Countless of stone pillars jutted out from the ground, with dark red chains on them as each bound a naked, wailing living person.

All of these living people were all of the Heaven Spire’s Darksider elites.

They were unwilling to submit to Faldt, and Faldt cared not for such rubbish, as subduing them was a waste of his time.

So he instead turned them into Underworld Force Pillars for him to accumulate energy in order to open a passage to the Underworld.

This war made him realized that attacking a Hidden Realm was still quite troublesome.

So he had decided to open a passage and summon part of his real body into this world, and strengthening himself before doing anything else.

But before that, he needed to deal with some unexpected surprises.

He quickly walked into the back of the meeting hall. There was a small restroom there, which was the temporary waiting room of those waiting.

Now it had been transformed into a special experiment site.

There was a total of six ordinary humans with special powers in their bodies that he had captured alive at the edge of the battlefield.

At that time, he had just annihilated the entire Heaven Spire resistance and caught this sneaking group of younglings at the edge of the battlefield with faint malice towards him.

For his age, these people were indeed younglings, as their age did not even come close to the two digits of his.

The strange powers within their bodies garnered his interest.

And after he was sure that they were not a threat, he easily defeated all of them and brought them as he conquered the Heaven Spire and threw them there.

Faldt activated his Gaze of the Doomed.

This was a special ability that allowed him to see through the nature and origin of power. It was a power unique to an Underworld Declaimer like him.

The Gaze of the Doomed swept past the few people there one by one.

Soon, the special power of one of them slightly startled him.

“What is this? Light? White power?”

Faldt’s Gaze of the Doomed suddenly stopped on Adolf.

He was attracted by the slightly dazzling light.

Within the dark hall, he slowly walked towards the bearer of the Sacred Vessel of Destiny.

“Tell me, what is this?”

He squeezed Adolf’s lower jaw and transferred a surge of Underworld Force to wake the latter up.

The Underworld Force was a special power only possessed by high-level powerhouses of the Underworld. It had the ability to stimulate a person’s potential, and temporarily revive them.
