Chapter 67 - 59 A Ride that Outstrips All Others
Under the pitch-black night sky, the usual vibrant colors were lost. The dazzling Sky Light illuminated the mountain range, bright as daylight, and even more eye-catching than the sun itself.
The mountains and gorges shook violently as if a fearsome earthquake had arrived, with a deep, continuous rumble that filled the air.
Terrifying explosions echoed from the depths of the mountain range, accompanied by the dawn of the Sky Light.
That roar was so piercingly loud, drowning out all other sounds and captivating everyone’s attention.
Everyone’s faces blanched in terror; could it be that the uprising of the world’s most fearsome Demon Beasts was upon them?
This seemed too soon; the world was not yet fully prepared.
As the people were thrown into a panic, a massive army of three hundred thousand outside the city hurriedly prepared as well. Bows, cannons, Demon-breaking Arrows, and other formidable war machines were rolled out, all aimed at the main exit of the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
Should a tide of countless Demon Beasts converge, all weapons would instantly explode into action, delivering the fiercest first strike and causing innumerable deaths in an instant.
However, after a long wait, the anticipated beast tide did not appear. The main exit remained undisturbed, with nothing happening.
But still, brilliant Divine Light burst in the mountains, illuminating the entire night sky and scattering vast swathes of clouds.
Terrifying fluctuations continued to explode, echoing like thunder deep into the night, drawing the attention of everyone within and outside the city.
