Chapter 524: Counter kill (II) (2/2)
Sheng Yue looked at the nearby Long Haochen with shock. He could sense that from this Golden Foundation Knight started to come out extremely dense fluctuations of light essence. And the purity of this light essence reached a level he had never seen before.
Long Haochen’s chanting voice was very gentle, and his incantation was very low pitched, but definitely didn’t lose out in efficiency. One could see that around his body started to bubble forth numerous specks of light.
Sheng Yue took a deep breath, and couldn’t help but reveal a grateful expression, remarking in a low voice, “Don’t push yourself too much.”
Long Haochen was of course unable to respond to him, but his chant started to become clearer.
Tiny specks of light started to surround his body. At first, there were only a dozen, each of which reached the size of a soybean, hardly remarkable. But as their quantity increased, everyone could sense with shock that the shape of a sphere of light started to form around him. At close and far distances appeared the same kinds of specks of light, gathering around Long Haochen’s area, and starting to spiral all around him.
Sheng Yue started to fly to the opposite direction of the Exorcist City. Since this knight was invested for the Exorcist Mountain Pass, he had to guarantee his safety. What if the demons chose to launch a surprise attack?
Not only him, but without need for his orders, a series of shadows swept outside the city, forming a protective barrier in the sky surrounding the Exorcist City, to guarantee the defense of Long Haochen while he chanted.
At this very moment, Long Haochen was extremely focused and seemed to only be able to hear his own long and tedious voiced incantation, which could lessen his feelings of guilt.
He had entered a fantastic state. When the chant had just started, the spiritual energy in his body was very dispersed, most of his spiritual energy having been depleted during the last battle.
But after the golden specks of light started to fuse with him, he discovered with stupor that the spiritual energy in his body kept rising, calmly piling up inside him. He had originally planned to chant until he had recovered halfway, but after completing the half, the rest continued naturally.
At this moment, his attention and senses were not on his own body, but were one with the air, assimilating nature and light.
The first time Long Haochen attained this state was in the Illusory Paradise. Ye Xiaolei had described it as a divine realm. God is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. At the current time, he wasn’t an incantator, but a conductor, conducting all the light essence.
He had as his support his deep kind-heartedness, and as his baton his sadness and dedication.
He experienced deeply the gentleness, kindness, harmony, sacrifice, mercy, pardon and compassion associated to light, and this instant, his mind made one with the light element. This instant, he had become the Scion of Light in the true meaning.
The power of light should never be used for slaughters, so even if Long Haochen managed in the future to become a powerhouse of the Demon God Emperor’s grade, he would absolutely not command light essence to do such things in times of attacks. The spell that he was using right now was using the concepts of pardon, compassion and kindness as one, without the slightest selfishness or distraction, and sparing no cost to spread out his feelings of mercy.
The golden dot of light forming a spiral shape gradually reached a high altitude, taking the shape of a huge pillar of light exceeding a hundred meters diameter. At this time, the demon god pillars over the distant demon camp were completely overshadowed, and the overwhelming light element’s influence made all the demons shudder in fear. Although they could sense that this holy light was not directed at them, being darkness affinity demons, they could hardly contain their fear.
No other grand scene followed after the appearance of this golden pillar of light. Finally, Long Haochen chanted the last syllable of his incantation, and from his body, a seven-colored light glowed. The Starlight Unicorn and he had already recovered their peak state of spiritual energy, but were still floating in midair, their eyes having become brilliant like never before.
The sky was totally golden, and as far as the eye could see, everything had taken a golden color. A faint rain of light started to pour out of nowhere, falling gently and slowly.
Everywhere the thin rain poured, people were given a gentle and agreeable feeling, and every drop of rain would turn into a very thin halo of light.
Every drizzle gave off a soft feeling of warmth. At the start, this small warmth was insufficient to really be noticed, but rapidly, people found out that the soft rain gave her an immense feeling of carefreeness and tranquility.
Everyone had the reflex of gazing at Long Haochen, riding the Starlight Unicorn King. Their feelings of excitement had gradually changed into feelings of tranquility. Then, they regained excited looks, filled with extreme feelings.
