Chapter 131 The Last Heir of the Magic Continent 20
Chapter 131 The Last Heir of the Magic Continent 20
As time went by, the day of the Demon Spirit Sacrifice soon arrived.
On this day, all the students and teachers of Saint Kaya College gathered in the magnificent and solemn church.
They were dressed in gorgeous magical robes and stood in neat rows under the huge statue, with determination and piety shining in their eyes.
At this moment, King Xie Teming was holding a magic wand shining with mysterious light and whispering ancient spells.
As he chanted, a powerful magical power gradually emerged and spread throughout the church. In an instant, the entire church floor was covered in a layer of green magic, like a vibrant meadow.
At the same time, the students also raised their right hands, ready to release their unique magical powers.
At this moment, Xie Qi stood below, holding his hands up, but in his heart he couldn't help but complain to 948, "This whole thing is like a cult, so fucking idiotic. But that magic stone is really bright, breaking it up would be nice to make a diamond ring for my wife."
948: "..."
"Students of Saint Kaya Academy, today you step into a solemn and mysterious realm, feeling the intersection of invisible power and faith. Cast your own power, and use the wisdom of your heart to feel the pulse of the world. Integrate your talent, strength, and wisdom into this sacred ritual, and offer your most sincere prayers for the path guided by God."
As Xie Teming finished speaking, Szelote placed the magic stone in his hand on the altar. He took a deep breath and began to slowly release his magic.
The students and teachers below also released their magic at the same time, and everyone looked serious.
In an instant, the entire church was shrouded in dazzling light, and a steady stream of magical colors gathered from everyone's hands onto the magic stone.
But as time went on, they slowly realized that something was wrong. According to past experience, this prayer ceremony should have ended quickly, but this time it seemed to be taking unusually long.
Not only that, every year when they release their magic, they only need to release a little bit of power and they won't feel any discomfort.
But this year, they clearly felt that their magic power was constantly dissipating, as if it was being madly devoured by the magic stone.
Many students gradually found it unbearable, and some even put their hands down directly.
However, what is even more unexpected is that even if they no longer release magic outwards, the magic stone will continue to absorb their magic power.
They discovered to their horror that their abilities were slowly weakening and disappearing...
"Ah!" A student let out a scream, his face turned pale as paper, his body swayed as he tried to stand firm, but eventually he fell down weakly.
Soon after, several more students experienced the same thing. Their bodies gradually became weaker and they collapsed to the ground.
In a short while, half of the students who had just been standing in an orderly manner had fallen to the ground weakly. However, even so, the magic in their bodies was still dissipating.
The originally green magic circle on the ground now turned blood red, as if it was continuously absorbing the students' lives.
The blood dyed the entire ground red, creating a strange and terrifying picture.
Principal Boveli had already noticed the abnormality at this moment, but even he could not stop the transmission of magic.
They couldn't even move, their legs seemed to be tied up, unable to break free, nor could they release their magic.
He felt that his strength was being devoured by an invisible force, and the energy in his body was continuously flowing out.
At this moment, all the people in the church became sacrifices to lift the seal, and magic threads of various colors floated in the air.
These magical threads danced in the air like colorful ribbons. They came from every student and teacher, transforming their life force into powerful magic, and then gathered into the magic stone.
The magic stone, which was supposed to be a blessing, was now slowly turning black from the top as it absorbed more and more magic power. It began to emit an ominous aura.
Until the dazzling body of the Demon Spirit Stone turns into transparent black, the seal of the Demon King will be immediately lifted.
After Xie Qi noticed this change, he rushed to Szellot without hesitation. He didn't care about his own fading magic power and desperately pulled Szellot to a safer place farther away from the magic stone.
However, even so, their bodies could not avoid being absorbed by the magic stone. A trace of magic power continuously flowed out of their bodies and gathered into the magic stone.
At this time, Xie Teming tightly grasped the magic stone that had turned one-third black, muttering to himself and reciting a mysterious spell.
So, everyone present witnessed this scene. A huge crack suddenly appeared in the air behind Xie Teming, forming a deep black hole.
What was terrifying was that the legendary demon king actually emerged from the black hole! His head slowly emerged, with a ferocious and terrifying expression, as if he was about to break free and descend into the world.
"Xie Teming! You traitor to humanity!" Principal Boveli had cold sweat on his forehead, but because his magic had been absorbed by the magic stone, he couldn't even use the simplest magic. He could only barely support his body and shouted at Xie Teming.
Xie Qi didn't expect Xie Teming to move so quickly.
At this moment, Xie Teming looked at the magnificent scene before him, and the joy in his heart was beyond words. He had waited for this moment for many years, and today he could finally get what he wanted and realize his ambition.
He said arrogantly: "Hahahaha... What is a traitor? Only people on the same side are traitors! You and I have never been on the same side, so how can I be called a traitor? Hahahaha..."
Xie Teming opened his arms with a smug smile on his face, as if waiting for a great moment to arrive.
However, just when Xie Teming was getting too proud of himself, before he could reach his great moment, he was hit by a critical hit from Xie Qi.
Xie Qi held the magic wand and swung it towards Xie Teming's head mercilessly.
Before Xie Teming could react, Xie Qi immediately turned around and tried to destroy the magic stone that fell to the ground.
He knew in his heart that if the Demon Stone turned completely black, the Demon King would be completely released, and the whole world would then be in great crisis.
However, before Xie Qi could get close to the Demon Stone, the Demon King suddenly stretched out an arm and pounced on him quickly.
At this critical moment, Szellot flew over and knocked Xie Qi to the ground without hesitation, successfully preventing the devil's sharp claws from hurting him.
“Die! Die! Die…Anyone who tries to stop me should be punished!” The devil’s deep and malicious voice echoed in the auditorium, making people feel extremely terrified.
At this moment, everyone fell into despair and was unable to react. They had completely lost control of their bodies and were unable to cast any magic to resist the demon king's attack.
They could only watch helplessly as the devil had broken free with his two arms. If he broke free from the seal, he would only be waiting for death.
The teachers at the front were in the most dangerous situation. They were unable to move and were very close to the devil. They could only watch helplessly as the devil waved his arms and attacked them.
Just as the devil's arm was about to hit them, a dazzling golden light burst out instantly, protecting them tightly.
The devil's arm was also burned by this powerful golden light, and bursts of black smoke came out.
The source of this golden light was the magic wand held tightly in Xie Qi's hand.
At this point, Xie Teming, who had been dazed from the beating, had also recovered. Veins bulged on his forehead, and he suppressed his rage as he stared at Xie Qi, gritting his teeth and roaring, "How can you still use magic? Who the hell are you?"
He found it hard to accept the fact that even Boveli could not cast magic, but this humble pariah was still able to use the power of magic.
However, Xie Qi ignored his roar and questioning, but just raised his arm, grabbed the long magic handle, and then turned his wrist slightly, and quickly tore off the cloth covering the totem on his right hand with his left hand.
Then, Xie Qi silently chanted a spell, and in an instant, everyone clearly saw the totem on his right hand shining with dazzling light.
The light followed his fingers and slowly wrapped around the magic wand in his hand.
Then, Xie Qi held the magic wand and gently tapped the ground. At that moment, an enormous magic circle quickly formed with the bottom of the magic wand as the center.
This mysterious magic circle enveloped all the students and teachers present. In the blink of an eye, the students and teachers who had been lying on the ground, unable to move, disappeared without a trace, as if they had never existed.
At this moment, the only ones present were Xie Teming, the Demon King, Xie Qi, and Szelote.
