Chapter 539: Spear of Despair
The Ultimate System · 第539章 绝望之矛
"Everyone bullies me. I, the Despair Marquis, am the sovereign of Despair City, possessing boundless territory and exercising supreme authority. You ants dare to offend my majesty." The Despair Marquis stared expressionlessly at the people of the six great sects, but his gloomy voice was filled with boundless fury.
His clean, lovely face had now become hideously ferocious. In the eyes of the six great sects, he was like a peerless demon, raising his hand to shatter heaven and earth, destroying everything.
Those disciples of the six great sects who had only heard his name but never seen him in person could not believe that this child, as cute as a porcelain doll, could harbor such deep resentment.
His icy eyes gazed straight at heaven and earth. In an instant, not only were the heavens and earth frozen, but even their beating hearts suffocated at that moment.
The elders of the six great sects saw that their disciples had all been penetrated to the depths of their hearts by the Despair Marquis's power of despair, and their expressions changed drastically. If this continued, these disciples would likely sink into despair forever, unable to extricate themselves.
The elders of the Divine Clan Hall stepped forward, their lips moving slightly, and golden mysterious heavenly talismans flew out from their mouths.
These talismans radiated sacred golden light, growing more numerous and denser, until finally they coalesced into a Talisman Deity.
The Talisman Deity roared, and a celestial sound echoed through the entire void. The power of hope and the power of goodness, the two most luminous forces of heaven and earth, converged into a river that swept over the bodies of the disciples.
"What just happened?"
"Why did I feel so despairing?"
"Junior brother, how could I have wounded you?"
The Winged Clan controlled the most luminous forces of heaven and earth, and when the elders of the Divine Clan Hall wielded them, the power they could unleash was even greater.
This powerful force directly dispelled the Despair Marquis's power of despair, restoring the disciples of the six great sects.
An elder of the Divine Clan Hall, born peculiar with three wings, was an anomaly among the Winged Clan, naturally possessing much greater power than his kin.
But he had just discovered that the Despair Marquis's strength surpassed theirs; merely dispelling this power of despair had exhausted all their means.
Long Xuan looked at the people of the six great sects. He hadn't expected them to come to Despair City to rescue the creatures of the myriad races.
If only the Despair Marquis had returned alone, he might still have been able to save the people of the six great sects. But now, Gu Xiao, son of the Might Sovereign, had also come, bringing many powerful attendants.
Given the current situation, it was very dangerous.
"Hehe..." At this moment, the Despair Marquis lowered his head, his smooth, shiny bangs covering his eyes, emitting a chilling sound.
In an instant, the Despair Marquis raised his head, his originally calm eyes now flashing with an eerie light.
"All of you, die!" the Despair Marquis roared, raising his hand. The power of despair pierced through heaven and earth.
The overwhelming force made the elders of the six great sects utterly despair. This was heavenly might, divine might.
"This little demon is actually a Divine Heaven rank expert," Zhu Long said, his face drastically changing as he saw the power the Despair Marquis unleashed.
Divine Heaven rank—a single step to heaven. Even if they joined forces, they were no match for the Despair Marquis.
"Now we must go all out and let the disciples leave first," said an elder of the Giant Spirit God Sect.
"Better to sacrifice ourselves and eradicate the Despair Marquis. That would be a blessing for the myriad races."
At this moment, Mu Longtian, who had always been arrogant and wanted the myriad races to worship him, turned pale as he felt the Despair Marquis's vast, ocean-like power.
Before this power, he was afraid, terrified, his pupils filled with panic.
He hadn't expected the Despair Marquis to be so strong; he didn't even have the courage to lift a finger in his presence.
At this moment, the thirty elders of the six great sects suddenly erupted with their full auras, surging into the clouds.
"Sky-Rending Dragon Art!"
The elders of the Ancient Dragon Sect roared, their skin splitting as they transformed into colossal dragons, roaring and spewing dragon essence that merged together.
Giant Spirit God Sect, Divine Clan Hall, Water God Sect, Horned Heaven Sect, Heaven Eye King Sect.
The thirty elders of the six great sects gave their all, their surging power coalescing in the void.
Gu Xiao, standing there watching the scene, showed a hint of displeasure on his face. He hadn't expected the Despair Marquis to be so strong.
Breaking through to Divine Heaven rank in such a short time—Gu Xiao felt this was most improper.
Though the Despair Marquis was a dog under the Supreme One, he was still a lowly creature of the Dragon Clan. How could he surpass the supreme Gu Clan?
Gu Xiao had been stuck at half-step Divine Heaven rank for a long time. Vaguely, he wanted to entrust his heavenly position, but always got stuck at the most critical step, unable to ascend for a long time.
Long Xuan didn't know what to do now. On one side was the master who had once taught him, on the other, the person most important to him.
"Despair Marquis, today the six great sects will fight you to the death!" Zhu Long roared, merging his boundless power with the others.
Roar!
A giant towering figure stood between heaven and earth, divine sounds缠绕, treading on paradise, unleashing supreme might.
"Below Divine Heaven rank, all are ants." The Despair Marquis's icy eyes looked at the towering giant before him, and his delicate, small hands gently clapped together.
The void instantly tore open a huge hole, pitch black inside. A force swept through heaven and earth, bursting forth violently.
This force was world-destroying. Before it, all living beings were so small, so fragile.
Crack!
The towering giant roared in fury, but before this force, it shattered inch by inch.
"Spear of Despair!"
In an instant, from the pitch-black void, a dark spear radiating infinite despair slowly extended.
This spear emitted a dark light, engraved with despair talismans, as if condensed from the despair of heaven and earth, possessing the power to destroy everything.
Whoosh!
The spear trembled slightly, and in an instant, it shot toward the six great sects.
"Xiao Guang, stop!" When Long Xuan saw the spear, his expression changed drastically. His figure flickered, and he appeared instantly before the collapsing giant.
The Despair Marquis saw Long Xuan's figure, and his expressionless face changed slightly. Then, as if losing everything, he let out a mournful howl.
"Are you leaving me too?" The spear halted in the void. As the Despair Marquis howled, it trembled violently. The heart moves the intent; perhaps the Spear of Despair could also feel the despair in the Despair Marquis's heart.
"Xiao Guang, I..." Long Xuan looked at the Despair Marquis.
Pfft!
In an instant, a cold light flashed. A skull pierced through Long Xuan's body, tearing away half his heart.
"Despair Marquis, you are too soft-hearted. Such a disobedient dog, just kill it. Why waste words?" Gu Xiao, standing in the distance, laughed darkly. In his palm lay a skull. He took the half heart from the skull's mouth and put it into his own mouth, chewing.
"Mm, not bad. The heart of a dragon is indeed excellent," Gu Xiao laughed cruelly.
"Xiao Guang..." Long Xuan looked down at the hole in his chest, gushing blood. Then, containing all his emotions in his eyes, he gazed at the distant Despair Marquis and murmured. Finally, as if losing all strength, he fell downward.
...
At this moment, in the treasure vault.
Lin Fan, with a round belly, let out a burp.
"Damn, there are too many pills. I can't eat anymore, really can't eat anymore." Lin Fan had never imagined that one day he would be stuffed to bursting by an endless supply of pills.
"Eh, what's going on outside? Why so noisy?" Lin Fan wondered, then rubbed his belly, stood up, and walked outside.
