NOVEL NEXT Chapter 133
Chapter 133: Sage-Stage Existence! Truth!
“Tremble, ants! With your deaths, bring me a moment of joy!”
Amidst the deep voice, an overwhelming pressure swept over the place—mightier and heavier than even the might of heaven!
The air seemed to be stagnant, and the temperature dropped suddenly!
The wind and clouds in the sky suddenly stirred, and even space itself seemed to be trembling!
This aura that brought chills to living beings enveloped the entire Unfallen City.
The originally bright, cloudless sky became dark and depressing instantly! It was like a piece of ink had quickly bloomed, and the entire sky became pitch black. Not a single bit of light could be seen!
From a distance, it looked like a huge mouth that was going to swallow the world! Then, it looked like an abyss that laid above Unfallen City!
Such a terrifying phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the city!
The city—which was originally immersed in peace and shrouded in orderly light—suddenly became precarious!
Unfallen Cit—which had been promoted to a first-level home city—suddenly seemed to become a small boat in a vast stormy sea. There was a crisis of overturning at any time!
Everyone in the city showed surprise and trepidation on their faces at this moment!
Some low-stage players even shuddered uncontrollably, their legs shaking like chaff being threshed!
Under the horrifying atmosphere, all of them sensed some sort of fatal crisis! It felt like the God of Death’s scythe was right behind them!
The [Doomsday Online] players’ faces turned pale, and their hearts fiercely shrank as if a cold palm was grabbing them tightly!
Even chills rose up from the soles of many people’s feet, reaching all the way to their foreheads. Cold sweat dripped from their bodies like rain, soaking their clothes wet. When blown by the wind, the chill even seeped into their bone marrows!
Exclamations and shouts instantly sounded throughout, and the entire city was no longer peaceful!
“This… Why did such a phenomenon suddenly appear in the sky?!”
“Has the sky changed? Why do I feel like I am being stared at by some extremely terrifying wild beast and that I might die at any moment?”
“This aura and this power… Is there a terrible monster appearing? Or is a devastating disaster about to come?!”
The people discussed, their hearts panicking.
As for Xue Linglong and the others—who were in the center of this terrifying aura—their expressions changed crazily. The shock in their hearts was like waves in a storm!
Fear blew across like the wind and grew wildly in their hearts!
As if staring at an endless abyss, Yang Xuerou and the others all felt an indescribable sense of suffocation and danger!
At this moment, even people as tough-minded as them also couldn’t help but feel a chill on their backs. The hair on their bodies stood on end, and countless goosebumps appeared on their skin!
What level of lifeform must one be to release this kind of pressure and sense of oppression?
Just facing the aura alone had already made their scalps numb, and a soul-freezing chill affected them all over. It was like they had fallen into an ice cave!
“Is this a Stage Seven abyss monster?” asked Luo Xinghe with difficulty, his heart beating wildly.
They had encountered Stage Six monsters during the siege war. Although they also felt a strong sense of oppression, it definitely wasn’t as strong as the oppression they felt now!
At this instant, they were like insignificant ants that were facing the vastness of the sky. All they could do was shudder and fear!
“I’m afraid that even Stage Seven monsters don’t have such a strong aura, right? Is this another god?!” Fatty Lu Da’s face was pale. He swallowed his saliva and spoke in a trembling voice.
“It’s not a god. This should be a Sage-level existence that is at least Stage Eight and above.” Link was still calm and composed. There wasn’t a single trace of fear on his handsome face. There was only coldness on his face.
After all, Link was a person who had faced a god directly. Coupled with the [Fearless] passive, it wasn’t possible for a Sage-level existence’s aura to cause mental impact to him.
“Stage Eight? Stage Eight existence!” Luo Xingyao and the others couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Stage Eight beings were called Semi-Sages, while Stage Nine beings were true Sages!
Regardless of whether it was a Semi-Sage or a true Sage, they were all Sage-level existences. They possessed amazing power and could overlook all other living beings!
Those who had yet to reach Sage-level were like ants in front of them!
No wonder there was such a terrifying aura exuding from the drop of blood!
Sage-level existences were simply beyond the reach of human beings at this period of time!
It should be noted that the humans on Blue Star who had reached Stage Five—Star-rank powerhouses—and started the climb to sanctification were already extremely rare, close to none!
As for the terrifying Sage-level existences, they could wipe out the current Unfallen City with just a wave of their hands!
The fear of death instantly enveloped them and eroded their hearts!
“Haha, I am indeed a Sage-level existence, a Stage Eight Semi-Sage! Those below the Sage-level are all ants; you guys should be glad that you are going to die in my hands!” The deep voice sounded again.
The drop of blood—which exuded a terrifying aura—broke free from the tentacles’ shackles and turned into a hideous blood shadow that was several feet tall. Immense blood energy and pressure emitted from it!
However, the blood shadow—suspected to be a Sage-level existence—wasn’t in a hurry to make a move. It seemed to be enjoying this moment, taking the despair and fear of others as pleasure.
Link stared at the blood shadow and then suddenly laughed. But due to the [Mask of the Faceless] being on his face, the swirling pattern on the mask distorted when Link smiled. It made Link look a little crazy and hideous.
The sudden laughter broke the extremely heavy atmosphere.
Xue Linglong and the others all looked toward Link, and even the blood shadow’s hideous face seemed to flash with surprise.
Link clapped his hands and sneered. “Your acting is quite good; I was almost deceived by you.”
Link’s eyes suddenly became exceedingly sharp, and he said in a deep voice, “It’s impossible for Sage-level existences to descend on Blue Star at this moment!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was dazed. They were slightly unable to keep up with Link’s thoughts, and their hearts were full of doubts and surprises!
It is impossible for Sage-level existences to descend? Then what’s this in front of them? Moreover, Link clearly said that this was a Sage-level existence earlier!
Link continued, “Blue Star has the protection of the planet’s will, and restrictions that even the gods are afraid of might exist. Hence, even Sage-level existences also can’t violate the rules and descend now.”
“And you… You should only be a Stage Six existence’s breath or a strand of will. The intensity of your current form definitely won’t exceed Stage Six. Stage Six—this should be the limit that Blue Star can tolerate at the current stage.”
These words landed sonically.
This answer was partly from the conclusions that Link drew after encountering the Stage Six Dark Sage and the Spider God, but it was also partly his own guesses.
After all, even a godly existence like the Spider God had only created three Stage Five Spiderhuman High Priests!
Even the gods had to follow certain rules and restrictions. They couldn’t come to Blue Star in person. It was still too early for Sages to break the rules and truly descend, even if they wanted to do so!
The current Blue Star was a place that was gradually opening up, or rather, gradually being unsealed!
And [Doomsday Online] was to provide all human beings an opportunity to make a rapid transition in lifeform level!
Link’s words made everyone so shocked that they were unable to speak.
Even the blood shadow froze for a while!
Link’s words were obviously true, and they had hit the blood shadow at the spot that hurt most!
