Upon hearing this, Lu Hu couldn't help but exclaim, "Truly, you are worthy of this title. You act with prudence and never act rashly."
Wang Tao agreed, saying, "Luckily it was Fang Zhou. If it were any other student, they wouldn't have been able to report to us in time."
"I might get caught in this myself."
While directing the gargoyles, Su Xinyan guessed, "Ordinary professionals cannot feel the chilling sensation that comes from the [Blasphemy Torch]."
"It's probably because Ark's soul talent is very strong that it was able to sense it."
Fangzhou took this opportunity to ask the three instructors about his doubts.
"Since blaspheming against creation is so dangerous, why didn't we cleanse the blasphemous aura from Cave 1 beforehand?"
The three instructors exchanged glances and sighed.
Lu Hu asked Fang Zhou to turn off the live streaming function of the hunting recorder before explaining helplessly, "There's only one reason: we're willing but unable to do anything about it!"
The blasphemous aura has permeated the environment of Earth, and humans can only detect it roughly at present, without being able to completely clean it up.
Even the [Purify] skill of a Light-attribute class can only purify the highly solidified [Desecrated Core], but cannot purify the intangible and formless aura of desecration.
Wang Tao also said with a serious expression: "For us humans, naturally generated [Blasphemy Torches] like these are actually a good thing if we discover them early."
The blasphemous aura in this area has solidified into a [blasphemous core].
If it can be completely purified, it can be considered a blessing in disguise.
Su Xinyan added, "Fangzhou, it's actually a bit too early for an apprentice like you to be exposed to this kind of knowledge."
You only need to remember one thing.
Although most of the abyssal demons were banished back to the mythical world, the blasphemous aura they left behind is like poison left for Earth, posing the greatest threat to humanity in the long run.
The specific reasons are too complicated to explain now; you'll understand them naturally when you reach the Mythical Battlefield and your strength increases.
Fangzhou nodded slowly, gradually digesting the explanations from the three instructors.
The gargoyles flew extremely fast, and soon carried everyone to the edge of the town ruins.
At this moment, having absorbed and devoured the souls of many nocturnal demons, the blazing torch of blasphemy grew ever larger.
More and more blasphemous flames filled the sky, burning like a blue sea of fire above the ruins.
Faced with this suffocating scene, Su Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned to Fangzhou and said in a relaxed tone, "Luckily you discovered them early, Fangzhou. They can't cause any trouble now."
Lu Hu also laughed and said, "That's right, it seems that the power of these blasphemous ghost flames is still at the lower apprentice level."
It's relatively easy to handle.
Fangzhou, I'll have to give you credit for this when we get back!
Amidst laughter and conversation, the gargoyle circled several times above the town ruins.
The three instructors measured the extent of the desecrated will-o'-the-wisp, gaining a clearer understanding of the current state of the desecrated torch.
It is still in its infancy, but the evil power it exudes is already considerable.
"Now!"
Su Xinyan gave a soft shout, waved her staff, and quickly activated the gargoyle to unleash the [Stone Armor] skill.
As she chanted her incantation, the stone textures around the gargoyle began to ripple, as if it had come to life.
Rock-like scales gradually covered its body, forming an indestructible armor.
Fang Zhou, Lu Hu, and Wang Tao were enveloped in this protective layer in a strange way, as if they were placed inside a mobile fortress, making it difficult for any external dangers to penetrate.
Immediately afterwards, the gargoyles, like arrows released from a bow, carried the people in their armor and plunged headlong into the churning, blasphemous flames.
In the night sky, countless blue will-o'-the-wisps, like greedy hunting dogs, pounced on the gargoyles.
They exploded around the gargoyles, making crackling sounds.
But all of this was nothing more than a spectacular fireworks display for the gargoyles clad in [Stone Armor]. The apprentice-level will-o'-the-wisps, despite their large numbers, could not shake the defenses of the gold-rank gargoyles, and could not even leave a scratch.
The gargoyle resembled a meteorite falling from the sky, with a clear target and unstoppable momentum.
It headed straight for the blasphemous torch emitting a faint blue light in the center of the town ruins, determined to wipe it out completely with a single blow.
"Yay!"
Su Xinyan's excited laughter echoed in the night sky.
As she commanded, the gargoyle accelerated, and finally, with overwhelming force, crashed into the blasphemous torch. At that moment, the blasphemous flames that filled the sky seemed to freeze for a moment.
boom!
A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth.
The blasphemous torch, under the gargoyle's impact, was crushed into fine powder like a fragile paper toy in an instant.
In the midst of this devastating collision, a black gem the size of a fist flew out of the ash.
It drew a strange arc in the air, but Land Rover reacted extremely quickly, grabbing it firmly and putting it in its pocket almost the instant it left the torch.
With the destruction of the blasphemous torch, the scattered will-o'-the-wisps seemed to have lost their backbone.
They gradually lost their luster, eventually turning into wisps of smoke and dissipating into the night sky.
The oppressive atmosphere and the suffocating chill gradually dissipated.
The spot where the torch was once desecrated is now a huge crater.
"Ahem!"
Fangzhou twisted his waist with some effort and straightened up from the gargoyle's back, which was half-kneeling on the ground.
After looking around at the chaotic ruins of the town, even someone as gentle as him couldn't help but complain, "Instructor Su, you're a necromancer, not a gargoyle knight!"
Why make such a fuss when a single punch could have solved it?
He never expected that Su Xinyan's battle plan would be so simple and direct, just a reckless charge.
They used gargoyles to clear a path and smashed the blasphemous torch to pieces.
Because the disparity in strength between the two sides was so great, the effect was naturally very good.
But it's too rough! It's really too rough!
As a refined and noble mage, how could I risk my life like a berserker!
Su Xinyan chuckled foolishly twice.
She was so engrossed in the gargoyle's power that she ignored Ark's minor offense.
Lu Hu and Wang Tao also shook their heads, feeling a little dizzy from the huge impact that came from the sky.
Soon, Fangzhou recovered and jumped off the gargoyle with the three instructors.
He looked at the black gem in Lu Hu's hand and asked curiously, "Instructor Lu, is this the [Desecration Core]?"
Lu Hu nodded and said, "That's right!"
Judging from its color and quality, it is already a black iron-grade blasphemous core.
If this blasphemous torch were allowed to devour everything unchecked for a few more days, it might even produce a Black Iron-grade blasphemous ghost fire.
