Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Light Divine Crystal
The Heart of the Crimson Imperium.
Crimson moonlight filtered through stained glass, casting eerie spots of light on the silver-threaded bed curtains.
Lilith suddenly sat up from the silken white sheets, her sharp nails leaving marks on the gilded bedpost.
"Interesting!"
At the moment of the blood body’s death, everything within the sanctum was already made known to her!
She involuntarily licked her red lips, her throat moving.
That human’s talent...
Truly terrifying!
This time she took action personally, yet she still suffered a setback at the hands of that human!
Thinking of this, she slowly got up.
Lilith, in her silver-haired lolita form, stood before a full-length mirror, observing her noticeably shrunken figure in the reflection.
Her once waist-length silver hair now only reached her shoulders, and her slender wrists seemed as if they could break with a snap.
She felt the energy within her!
Weakened again!
This time, the death of the blood body caused her power to further weaken.
Once at Monarch Tier Nine, now reduced to merely Monarch Tier Five.
"This level..."
Lilith’s eyes darkened slightly.
Absolutely cannot expose her true strength!
If those Monarch Level blood clans knew her power had decreased to such an extent,
they would surely rise together to attack her, eliminate her, and take her place as the new Blood Progenitor.
"I must restore my power quickly!"
The one and only Divine Pattern was obtained by that human, and the pattern has successfully recognized him as its master...
Her eyes narrowed slightly.
Then she doesn’t need to seek out the Divine Pattern, she only needs to capture that human...
Upon realizing this, a brilliant plan flashed in her mind.
Light Divine Crystal!
The talent of that angel has already reached Mythical Fifth Tier...
To continue advancing further, possessing this material is necessary.
Her pale lips curled into an arc.
This mythical material now exists as only one piece in the entire Alternate Space.
The sole Light Divine Crystal is in The Crimson Cathedral!
If that human wants that angel to keep advancing, he will certainly come to The Crimson See.
By then...
She unconsciously licked her lips.
As long as she can capture him, use his blood to awaken the Divine Pattern within her body.
By then, her power would not only return to its peak, but might even progress further——
Thinking this, she waved her hand.
Crimson energy surged like a tide, her petite form stretching instantly.
Her silver hair grew to her ankles, the blood-red gown billowed in the shadows without wind, the pressure of the Blood Progenitor once again enveloped the entire sleeping palace.
"Pass down the order——"
...
Outside the Sanctum.
The entrance to the Divine Realm.
The initial bustling scene here was long gone.
Due to disturbances in the Demon Domain, most Monarch Level powerhouses had rushed to the borders.
On the surface, this appears to be a beautiful picture of Xenos and humans working together to fight the enemy!
But...
Beneath this facade of calm lurks a surge.
"Buzz!"
Space trembled suddenly, and the figures of Aster Grant and Crystal Winslow suddenly emerged.
Stryker, who had been waiting for a long time, instantly flashed to their front, firmly guarding the two.
The remaining Monarch Level Xenos, seeing someone exit the Divine Realm, their gazes suddenly turned dangerous!
Stryker’s gaze swept cautiously over all the Xenos present, not turning his head, he spoke in a low voice:
"Aster, how is it?"
"All went smoothly!"
Aster’s brief response slightly eased Stryker’s tense nerves, but in an instant, they tightened once more.
The real crisis is only just beginning.
The surrounding Monarch Level Xenos had quietly formed an encirclement, even sealing off the space.
"Stryker, we will not take action against you."
"But before our clansmen emerge, before the ownership of the Divine Pattern is clear, no one is allowed to leave!"
"Exactly! We must confirm into whose hands the Divine Pattern has fallen in this Divine Realm!"
Hearing these words, Stryker’s face instantly grew as dark as water.
These Xenos don’t want them to leave?
Can they stop him?!
Behind Stryker, Aster’s gaze swept across the scene.
Only then did he notice...
The Monarch Level powerhouses remaining here were few, each race only had one representative left.
Zane Drake, Cavan Vero, and even the Queen of The Crimson See were nowhere to be seen.
He instantly understood, something must have happened in Baelgard, otherwise, they wouldn’t have left here.
"Aster, you guys go first!"
Stryker’s voice was extremely low.
Fortunately, Zane Drake had already anticipated this situation.
They had also made preparations!
Immediately, a black-robed figure approached Aster and Crystal Winslow from behind Stryker.
A slender palm grasped the wrists of Aster and Crystal Winslow simultaneously.
Aster instinctively wanted to resist, but then he heard a familiar voice...
"Don’t resist!"
Aster’s resisting movement instantly stopped.
"Go!"
Stryker suddenly roared, the pressure of a Monarch Level erupted violently.
The multi-locked space barrier was abruptly torn open by a fissure.
The black-robed person seized this fleeting opportunity, and the three figures vanished like bubbles in the air.
"Space Talent?!"
The pupils of the Xenos powerhouses shrank suddenly, their faces turning ferocious in an instant.
"Damn it! The Divine Pattern must be on those two!"
"Chase! We cannot let them escape!"
Yet——
"Boom!"
Stryker’s muscular body stood like a mountain in front, his military uniform straining against his knotted muscles.
He slowly rotated his wrists, joints cracking like firecrackers.
Earlier, because of concern for Aster and Crystal, he had held back.
Now...
"Just with you bunch of misfits——"
Stryker’s lips curled into a vicious grin, the pressure of his Monarch Peak level swept across like a tsunami, the ground beneath his feet cracking inch by inch.
"Dare to make a move against me?!"
At this moment...
Space twisted once more, Veronica Vero emerged stumbling along with members of The Council.
The second seat of The Council, guarding here, instantly appeared in front of Veronica.
"Miss, this time the Divine Pattern..."
"Is in human hands!"
Hearing this, the second seat visibly relaxed his tense nerves.
As long as the Divine Pattern is in human hands, it means it belongs to either The Council or Draconia.
The two forces are on friendly terms, so it’s acceptable regardless of whose hands it’s in.
"Miss, I’ll escort you all away!"
The current situation on the field is complex, he must ensure Veronica’s safety!
However, the elders of the Angel Race and Ghost Race waiting here grew increasingly restless.....
They had yet to see their clansmen return and sensed something amiss.
"Something’s not right... not just our people, but other Xenos haven’t come out either."
"Where are the people from The Crimson See? Why are none of them seen?"
"Let’s wait a bit longer, we weren’t here just for the Divine Pattern..."
"That blood clan couldn’t have acted against our clansmen!"
At this time, the Xenos and Stryker had already engaged in combat.
Just that...
Stryker is already at Monarch Peak.
Additionally, he possesses four Monarch Peak level Beastbond beasts!
This group of Xenos could never be a match for Stryker!
After dealing with these Xenos, Stryker finally withdrew from there!
As for killing this group of Monarch level.....
Currently, humans and Xenos are still in an alliance, killing them would bring too much trouble.
Unwise!
However, what he didn’t know was, when he returned to the City of Chaos...
He then discovered... a huge surprise was waiting for him.
