Chapter 272 - The Heaven’s Doom (1/2)

Lin Luoran makes a cut with her sword, and the black curtain, already vulnerable due to the slit, is ripped off a giant crack.

Crystal and Ridd.i.c.k are Blood Lines of higher rank. Therefore, Alice becomes the first one to be attacked. As the sun s.h.i.+nes on her, her face as beautiful as Princess Sisi is burnt and smoked, her uncovered hands full of swelling blisters. Alice shrieks and is surrounded by the awaken Huaxia cultivators and killed with sword.

Everybody is in high spirits because of this. As soon as the tentacles monster is gone, they are set free. Even some cultivators choked with purple faces are saved by their partners quickly.

The bat monster has already moved out of the state of lifeless into fury and panic. “How dare you—”

Lin Luoran stands with sword in her hand, Goldie flying over her head. The outer surrounding people burst out laughter, all cheering “Hail Master Lin!”. Seeing this, an ancient proverb pops inside Ridd.i.c.k’s head—your time has pa.s.sed!

Naturally, the bat monster wants to eat Lin Luoran alive, yet it cannot move an inch—it is not because of the bald pen, but the mysterious force from Tao of nature locking on it.

The clear sky suddenly changes. With the sun still in the sky, a swirling cloud pops over the Textile School, sparkling while shooting out lightnings.

This oppression makes not only the bat monster, but half-monster Crystal with strong hostility scared from the bottom of the heart.

Is this the dark cloud?

It hits Lin Luoran that the invincible power of thunder and lightning can be the omen of Heaven’s Doom!

“Back off!” The dark cloud is by no means for her, a little cultivator at the level of Laying Foundation. It is mostly for the bat. Therefore, Lin Luoran doesn’t want everyone to stay here to take the thunder and summons the cultivators out.

It turns out that although being panicked, the cultivators are scared of the dark cloud and jumps out of the wall with trembling hands and legs. The dark cloud stops at the distance, making no move to come after them.

It really comes for the bat monster—

“Back off! I said back off!” Lin Luoran watches the bat monster alertly while telling the cultivators to back off to leave a safe distance.

It is very dramatic to see that a moment ago they were combating to death yet a moment later the black curtain is ripped off and the dark cloud shows, appearing to punish the bat monster.

Who said that Tao of the nature is in disorder? It will not tolerate such a monster!

…

“Are you alright?” Seeing Lin Luoran flies out, Liu Zheng asks.

Lin Luoran nods, eyes cast to the distance, speaking in low voice. “I’m afraid your master has finished his closed-door training.”

Many years have pa.s.sed since the last Heaven’s Doom took place in the State of Huaxia. Only when a great monster takes shape and cultivators break their essence and complete gathering vitality will the dark cloud appear. At first, the crazy Taoist thought there was someone gathering vitality in Zu area. Feeling the power of the dark cloud, he had to come all the way from the west suburban area of Rong City, regardless of the Soul Wood. As cultivators at the level of Bearing Essence can travel very fast, it only took several minutes before Lin Luoran feels his coming.

“Is someone gathering vitality?” The crazy Taoist comes on the clouds, staring at the bat monster under the dark cloud.

n.o.body knows about him. Perceiving that Lin Luoran is respectful, they guess in their hearts that this is the legendary master at the level of Bearing Essence. Therefore, no one dares to disturb them and pretends not seeing him at all.

Lin Luoran and the cultivators backed for more than a mile. The oppression from the dark cloud makes cultivators with low ability tremble. She whispers, “Sir, what does that mean?”

The crazy Taoist explains the appearance of the dark cloud to her. She shakes her head. “I’m afraid the bat monster belongs to neither of those cases!” She tells him about what happened in the secret land of magnetic mountain without anything concerning the bead. He exclaims that they got really lucky.

“You really have the gut to do that. A monster whose spiritual mind possessing a body can conjure Heaven’s Doom can cause ma.s.s turmoil. I’m afraid you are kept alive only because you are useful to it.”

Lin Luoran freezes. Hearing what he just said, she feels that she was thinking too much of herself to rely only on the bead.

If she and Goldie hadn’t broken the black curtain together, maybe the bat monster might have other tricks to kill them.

Considering that it was all about luck, Lin Luoran feels frightened by hindsight.

However, the crazy Taoist points to the inside for her to see.

…

The bat monster is so strictly targeted by the dark cloud that it cannot move while Crystal is not doing so well herself. Only Ridd.i.c.k flips his wings and finds that he can actually move.

“Crystal, this cloud seems so strange. We might as well go somewhere else!” Seeing her blank expression, he tries to hold her hand. As soon as he touches her arm, a strong force of electricity pa.s.ses through, which nearly makes him fall.

He becomes anxious. She’s not moving not because she doesn’t want to but because she cannot.
