Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 1022 - 705: One Hand Holds Up the Heavens
Bai E's face was expressionless.
He simply raised his right hand and gently grasped at the void.
There was no earth-shattering commotion, no dazzling brilliance.
But in the next moment, centered on him, a wave of spiritual energy, clear, cold, yet full of majestic vitality, swept silently like the purest moonlight or the first ray of dawn light, instantly covering the entire Ming Pearl Port and even spreading towards the more distant sea!
For the out-of-control Spiritual Ability Users, he merely brushed remotely, and the twisted whispers and eroding marks from high-dimensional space entwined in the depths of their souls swiftly dissolved and evaporated like thin ice exposed under the scorching sun.
The out-of-control ones collapsed one after another, mentally exhausted and weakened from their previous rampage, yet the deadly madness and chaos in the depths of their eyes had faded, replaced by deep fatigue and a bleak sense of survival.
The purification process was gentle and thorough, causing no secondary harm.
For the Bug Race emerging from underground, Bai E's approach was even more direct.
His spiritual energy penetrated underground, not to attack crudely, but precisely "calmed" the energy veins disturbed by the Bug Race's "mother body", temporarily severing the energy and information link between the surface Bug Race and the underground "mother body".
Without the support and command of the deep "mother body", the remaining surface Bug Race units suddenly became disorganized, their attack rhythm completely collapsed, and under Bai E's star sea-like spiritual energy pressure, they instinctively began to retreat underground or fell into a daze, becoming easy targets for the defending forces.
As for the Bug Race under the harbor and the restless beastmen at the coast, he didn't even directly attack.
He merely pushed his spiritual energy "presence" like a tangible wall towards the coastline and sea area.
This was not an aggressive spiritual energy shock, but a "domain" proclamation of a higher-level life form.
The bugs underwater sensed the deadly threat and frantically submerged, away from the harbor.
The beastmen at the shore were as if an invisible giant hammer struck their hearts, their "Waaagh!" frenzy instantly extinguished by cold fear, they gazed hesitantly towards the city, letting out uneasy growls.
Ultimately, led by a few relatively smart beastmen leaders, they scrambled onto their shabby vehicles, cursing yet swiftly fleeing the coastline without looking back, leaving behind chaos and the gradually fading roar of engines.
As for the southeastern sea where a dark mass, nearly forming, from evil plots in high-dimensional space, Bai E's presence and releasing his spiritual energy field initiated a violent struggle and retreat.
It seemed able to see Bai E, and more so, sense a certain trait in Bai E's spiritual energy that it both greatly detests and dreads—
It was the sun… the eternal sun in high-dimensional space.
The darkness rolled violently, issuing soundless, pain-filled, and furious spiritual energy shrieks, ultimately retreating like tidal waves into the deep sea, disappearing into the shadows between high-dimensional and physical worlds. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
A demonic ceremony that almost destined to corrupt half the city was snuffed out invisibly.
With a wave of his hand, a light breeze disperses the clouds.
Strong enemies retreat, crisis reversed.
Only then did Bai E slowly speak, his voice wasn't loud, yet resonated clearly in everyone's ear, calm, yet with an undeniable power:
"I have returned."
A simple four-word phrase, yet like the needle stabilizing the sea, thoroughly anchored the minds on the brink of collapse.
Like the first ray of dawn before the darkest hour, it pierced the sky, dispelling the despair shrouding Ming Pearl Port.
The prophecy in the painting has become reality.
And the one who rewrites the ending has returned...
From extreme hopelessness to unbelievable ecstasy.
Then to a bewildered awe towards such a power beyond comprehension.
The chairman, Ethan, and other council members slumped in their chairs, bodies drenched in cold sweat, their minds blank, with only two thoughts echoing repeatedly: "Bai E has returned", "We are saved".
Ordinary soldiers and civilians erupted in thunderous cheers, many bursting into tears of joy, worshipping the figure hovering in the sky.
If Bai E's prestige previously stemmed more from legends and his achievements in saving other cities, now, he genuinely performed a "miracle" in front of everyone in Ming Pearl Port as a living "god".
Kiro Lan stood at the shattered tower window, gazing at the silhouette, silent tears streaming down, yet her face blossomed into an unprecedented, radiant and reassuring smile.
Morphie, in the ruins of the old city district, punched the nearby broken wall fiercely, gazing at the sky, his eyes complicated.
Feeling both relieved and dejected.
Even if I put in two hundred percent effort, I still can't reach even the tail end of his shadow?
...
Outside Ming Pearl Port, Blade Face Kiao saw the little ones retreating like a tide.
Though he disdained personally engaging in such meaningless destruction, the clumsy retreat of his kin sparked his interest.
Yet as he aimed to move against the retreat, he suddenly sensed the spiritual energy surge from Ming Pearl Port that made even his soul tremor.
"It's 'that human from before'!" Blade Face Kiao licked his somewhat dry fangs, eyes gleaming with intense excitement and escalating battle zeal, yet also a clear hint of dread.
"He really has returned! And… become even more 'Waaagh!'!"
