"Brilliant!"
"What's that?!"
"Is there a fire somewhere?"
"How is that possible? A fire wouldn't be this bright! Besides, our city doesn't have such tall buildings!"
"Hurry, take a photo! Share it on social media!"
"..."
The towering column of light was too dazzling, capturing the attention of half of Cangnan City. Pedestrians stopped in their tracks, eagerly speculating about the cause of this phenomenon.
Some claimed it was an explosion, others thought it was an optical experiment, and a few believed it to be a divine miracle. Yet, only a handful knew the true significance of this light column.
Two minutes earlier, in the old city area:
On the deserted streets, ripples in space gently stirred, as if someone had lifted a corner of the canvas covering the old city. Following this, five figures clad in black and red cloaks emerged.
One of them glanced around, took a step forward, and lifted the "No Entry" sign lying on the ground, closing it.
As the sign was put away, the silent old city shattered like a soundless bubble, revealing its true, gruesome state. The ancient streets were soaked in eerie blood, with grotesque monster limbs scattered everywhere. If Lin Qiyue were there, he would have recognized that these were the dismembered faces of the monsters he had faced!
Countless, at least thirty-four of them!
"Operation [Realm of No Restraint] complete," the person holding the sign casually remarked. "You can call the logistics team to clean up the battlefield."
"Where's Captain Zhao?"
"Chasing after those two escaping faceless beings."
"...We underestimated them." The injured woman covered her right shoulder, looking somewhat dejected.
"Don't say that, Hongyan. No one expected a Faceless King among these faceless beings," the man beside her consoled.
"Captain can handle the Faceless King alone, right?"
"Of course, he's a formidable three-realm 'Chuan' realm expert. Nothing will happen." The man paused. "Just hope that those two fleeing faceless beings won't cause harm to ordinary people..."
As he spoke, a blazing pillar of light shot up from another direction, illuminating half of the sky!
The five turned their heads simultaneously, their eyes filled with shock.
"That is..."
"A Forbidden Zone is emerging. The energy fluctuation is extraordinary!"
"This is at least a five-realm 'Limitless' realm expert, or perhaps even a six-realm 'Klein' realm... How could such a powerful being come to the small Cangnan City?"
"No, this doesn't seem like a human Forbidden Zone." The man's brows furrowed.
Hongyan froze for a moment, then seemed to realize something. "You mean..."
"This seems like a divine Forbidden Zone, also known as... Divine Realm."
At the mention of the divine, the gazes of the few people became focused.
"Which deity is it?"
"Burning, sacred, powerful, and with a creation aura. If I'm not mistaken, this should be..." The man stared at the gradually fading pillar of light and spoke deliberately:
"Deity Designation 003, Archangel Michael, the Angel King."
...
Lin Qiyue felt uncomfortable.
In the center of the golden light pillar, his body had completely lost control, eerily suspended in mid-air, and endless energy spewed from his eyes.
Lin Qiyue felt like he had returned to ten years ago, once again seeing those eyes across the vast universe.
The aura of supreme holiness was still vivid in his memory.
The difference was that, ten years ago, this aura came from the moon, and now it emanated from... his own eyes.
The aura of the blazing angel and divine might erupted madly from his eyes. His eyes were like two burning suns, as if they could melt everything into nothingness.
Ten years ago, Archangel Michael exchanged glances with him on the moon.
Ten years later, Lin Qiyue opened his eyes, and the remaining power of the Archangel erupted completely!
Fortunately, the residual Archangel power in Lin Qiyue's eyes wasn't much. The light pillar lasted for seven or eight seconds before gradually dissipating, and Lin Qiyue's body fell from mid-air, stabilizing himself unsteadily.
In his eyes, the brilliant golden light gradually dimmed, leaving only a faint halo.
If the previous brightness equaled the sun, the current brightness was only that of a candle.
Although the burst of golden brilliance was formidable, it didn't belong to him. Now, the faint golden halo in Lin Qiyue's eyes was truly under his control.
A faint trace of Archangel power.
Lin Qiyue took a deep breath and slowly raised his head.
The pitch-black night sky, the worn-out streets, the horrifying monsters, and the blood-soaked ground... When this far from beautiful scene unfolded before Lin Qiyue's eyes, he smiled.
He smiled happily.
After ten years, he finally saw the world with his own eyes again.
At this moment, in Lin Qiyue's eyes, those monsters covered in blood seemed somewhat cute.
Since the eruption of the Archangel's divine might, these two monsters had been pressed firmly to the ground by the divine power, almost turning into meat patties.
Only when the golden light pillar disappeared did they come to their senses. They looked around in confusion and then fixed their gaze on Lin Qiyue.
Bloodthirsty desire appeared in their eyes once again.
"Roar!"
One of the monsters roared and lunged at Lin Qiyue!
Compared to before, Lin Qiyue was noticeably calmer now. In the instant the monster made a move, he had already judged its trajectory in his mind, gaining precious seconds for evasion.
It wasn't that he could predict the future, but since opening his eyes, his perception abilities had undergone a tremendous change.
One aspect was the range of mental perception, expanding from ten to twenty meters. Remember, it took Lin Qiyue five years to achieve a sensing range of ten meters, but now it doubled in an instant.
The other aspect was dynamic vision.
Within this twenty-meter range, Lin Qiyue had almost three times the dynamic vision of an ordinary person. His reflexes were abnormal, almost reaching the level of predicting the unpredictable during close-quarters combat.
As for the other abilities brought by his eyes, Lin Qiyue had yet to feel them.
However, the current situation didn't allow him to explore slowly.
Like an arrow released from a bow, the monster passed the spot where Lin Qiyue had just stood, crashing into a large piece of wall debris. Its limbs pushed off the wreckage, propelling it towards Lin Qiyue again!
At this moment, Lin Qiyue had already rolled away from the monster's landing spot, reached out beside him, and picked up the half of the white cane that had fallen to the ground.
Lin Qiyue quickly stood up, crouched down, and stared intently at the rapidly approaching monster, gripping the half of the white cane in both hands!
The monster left a trail of afterimages, stirring a strong wind that blew Lin Qiyue's black hair in front of his forehead.
With a sudden force from its hind legs, the entire body leaped into the air!
This time, Lin
Qiyue didn't dodge.
Clutching the half of the white cane tightly, his eyes fixed on the monster's eyes.
"Roar!"
The monster's sharp claws reached out directly for Lin Qiyue's neck.
At the moment when it was about to touch Lin Qiyue, his eyes suddenly contracted!
The faint golden halo in his eyes, like adding firewood to a bonfire, abruptly brightened, resembling two burning furnaces!
A strand of divine might, mediated by Lin Qiyue's eyes, surged into the monster's body.
At this moment, the monster's perception of Lin Qiyue changed. He transformed into a supreme deity with six wings, exuding a terrifying pressure!
Under this divine might, its body experienced a brief stiffness.
During this short time, Lin Qiyue raised the half of the white cane in his hand high...
Precisely pierced into the monster's right eye!
"Brilliant!"
"What's that?!"
"Is there a fire somewhere?"
"How is that possible? A fire wouldn't be this bright! Besides, our city doesn't have such tall buildings!"
"Hurry, take a photo! Share it on social media!"
