Redemption of a Born Demon
Chapter 411 - 286: Each with Their Own Agenda; A Newborn Calf Fears No Tiger (Part 2)
This was a question the entire world was watching.
Constantinople.
WHOOSH!
Yi Beidou and his group swaggered past the Starry Sky Country’s fleet and stepped onto the docks of Constantinople.
"What a terrifying Technique. How is something of this scale even possible?"
Ding Huiyuan couldn’t help but marvel as he looked at the massive Celestial Eye in the sky.
As a master of the Divine Sense Realm himself, he could feel the terrifying extent of the Celestial Eye’s illusion in the sky even more keenly.
’This immense magnetic field, this miraculous range and influence... it’s almost beyond human capability.’
"Find his real body, and we’ll know how he did it. Come on, let’s head to the liveliest part of the city first."
Yi Beidou said, his gaze fixed on the area in the city where the phenomena and auras were most terrifying.
Nearly twenty powerful auras were entangled there, churning the magnetic field like a hurricane and altering the weather itself. Dark clouds gathered over the city, creating a scene like the eve of apocalypse.
That was the main battlefield between the Illuminati and the people of Secret Technique Heaven.
The group nodded slightly and flickered toward the city’s interior.
Meanwhile, in a basement somewhere in Constantinople.
’Hmm? More Saint Realm experts have entered the city?’
A flicker of emotion crossed Eye of the Sun’s face. The horizontal eye on his brow twitched slightly, and through the Celestial Eye’s projection in the sky, he clearly saw the figures who had just entered the city. He quickly matched their images with the data in his mind.
’Yi Beidou? Donghua Martial Artists? Heh, so these secular folk have come to join the fun after all. Rushing straight for the main battlefield without even investigating the situation in the city? To use an old Donghua saying, "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers."’
Eye of the Sun chuckled to himself.
’However, I can’t let you get close so easily and disrupt the situation. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, you’ll have only yourselves to blame.’
Eye of the Sun’s eyes narrowed slightly. The golden pendants on his ears trembled, seeming to connect to a certain magnetic frequency.
"Pale, southeast quadrant. Five Donghua Martial Artists. Go intercept them."
Eye of the Sun said impassively.
"Huh? Weren’t you having me lie in wait to snipe the people from Secret Technique Heaven in the endgame and sweep them out of this contest? Why are you sending me to stop a few secular Martial Artists?"
A displeased voice echoed in Eye of the Sun’s mind.
"It shouldn’t take you long to either eliminate them or scare them off. Just come back and resume your watch when you’re done. Your abilities are the most suitable for this right now. I’ll use the Eye of Omniscience to share their aura positions with you. If you run into trouble, I’ll lend a hand and help conceal your own."
Eye of the Sun said flatly.
"Trouble? Are you kidding me? I’m just stopping a few secular Martial Artists. Are you looking down on me?"
"Fine, whatever. You sure know how to order people around."
The voice grumbled, and the golden earrings stopped trembling.
Somewhere in the city, a presence hidden in the shadows began to move.
On the roof of a tall building about a kilometer from Yi Beidou’s group’s path, a figure flickered into existence.
A young Caucasian man in punk attire, looking very avant-garde and fashionable, appeared on the rooftop. His gaze seemed to pierce through the obstruction of the tall buildings, locking onto Yi Beidou and his group as they advanced rapidly along the deathly quiet streets.
’Secular Martial Artists? And one of them seems to have vaguely reached the pinnacle of this era?’
’Well, I might as well go say hello to these young folks. I hope it’s not over in a flash. That would be a bit too disappointing.’
The young man said with a smile.
The next moment, a pale light emanated from his body.
However, this radiance wasn’t dazzling. Instead, it was morbidly hazy. His entire aura didn’t strengthen; on the contrary, it weakened rapidly. His skin turned pale and bloodless, like a terminally ill patient.
In this state, even the senses of a Saint Realm expert would automatically overlook this feeble life form.
This was the concealment ability the young man had mastered.
"Cough, cough."
The young man couldn’t help but let out a dry cough. A bit of spittle splattered onto the concrete rooftop, which actually hissed and emitted white smoke as if it had been hit by something highly corrosive.
"Now then."
The young man chuckled and reached out, grasping at the empty air.
A ball of pale light shot out from his palm. The light rapidly extended and solidified, finally forming the shape of a longbow in his hand.
The longbow was ornate, its entire body a pale white. Golden patterns spread across the bow’s limbs like thorns, like Spells, like clouds, filled with a profound and mysterious charm.
An ordinary person would be shocked at the sight, thinking they were witnessing a sacred object from ancient legends.
The longbow appeared solid, but it was merely an illusion, formed from a condensed magnetic field.
A Spirit Treasure!!
That’s right, this longbow was a void-like Divine Object, just like the crown that Devi controlled!!
Although such void-like Divine Objects were rare, as an Ancient One from a Secret Organization who had lived for over a thousand years, his accumulated resources were beyond what an ordinary person could ever imagine.
This young man was one of the Illuminati’s famous Four Knights, the one who represented Pestilence and Conquest.
The Pale Knight!
The Pale Knight locked onto the direction of Yi Beidou’s group. He placed his hand on the bowstring, and the pale light on his body seemed to be devoured by the longbow, rapidly condensing into an arrow on the string.
