《The Heavens Shall Fall》Chapter 67: Plate
Advertisement
Ming Li was still fighting his way towards the altar. He killed three more seekers of the ten remaining. With only seven seekers left, they could not afford to move out of the array. So Ming Li successfully reached the front of the altar while breathing ruggedly.
Facing the altar, he smiled viciously as he touched it and tried to put it in his cube. However, his face fell when he was not able to move it even an inch.
Without much option left, he gritted his teeth and tried to sense the demonic energy in the altar as he said "If I can't take the altar, I'll at least take as much demonic energy and mess up your plans!"
He then started absorbing high concentration of demonic energy from the woman in the altar. Demonic energy rushed through his veins like water rushing through an empty pipe filling his core and whole body.
Ming Li roared violently as he quickly absorbed more and mess up the array of the Black Spider Guild. His mind reeled as many more weird images appeared on his head. Suddenly, he coughed up blood, but that did not stop him from continuing his refinement.
Wild energy erupted from him as it spread out everywhere affecting the seekers on the array. All the seekers in the chamber were shocked on the changes occurring in the altar. They have never seen someone who can cause a huge change in the energy of the altar with a single touch.
Immediately, they came back to their sitting position as they tried their hardest to continue what they were doing earlier.
...
Outside, the fighting continued as the three leaders of the Black Spider Guild came close together and seem to be transmitting messages to each other.
All of their forces were being pushed back and the shield were showing signs of cracking. All of the members of the Black Spider Guild were already deployed, and all of them knew this would be the last part of this war.
"There is no more time! We need to activate it now!" Mao Kang said.
The leader of the two group nodded as they did a double handed incantation together with Mao Kang. Every incantation seem mysterious, everyone who looked at it seems to be unable to remember each one of those incantation even though they were staring right at it.
The incantation lasted for ten breaths. After completing the incantation, the same array below the chamber appeared on top of the guild covering the entire mountain.
Cracks appeared on top of the mountain as the land at the peak crumbled creating a huge hole where dark energy erupted. Everyone stopped fighting when they sensed the danger coming from the peak of the mountain.
The remaining monsters who were still alive all howled while running away as if they were petrified of something. Each one of them ignored the flame pillars, the wind attack and other random attacks. All they cared about was to escape the seemingly incoming danger from the unexplainable dark energy from the peak of the mountain.

Below the hole, cracks appeared on the chamber where Ming Li was located. The roof of the chamber turned to dust as the surrounding floor crumbled. What remained was a hundred meter diameter platform where Ming Li and the array was located.
The platform started to float at a fast pace directly exiting the hole on the mountain peak. Ming Li was shocked on what was happening, but he could not do a thing since he was busy absorbing and refining demonic energy from the altar.
When they appeared outside, he saw the vast battlefield where everyone stared at his location with shocked expressions.
The leader of the Black Spider Guild were also surprised to see Ming Li on the platform. They have no idea why Ming Li was there, however, they did not care anymore. All they thought about was to activate their last trump card to win the war. Focusing on their goal, they continued their incantation as they all laughed loudly as if they were calling something extremely terrifying from the depths of the underworld.
The opposing elders from the Golden Phoenix Order and Crystal Leaf Sect recovered from shock as they tried to stop the leaders of the Black Spider Guild.
They employed various skills, however, all of those skills were mysteriously blocked by an invisible force coming from the altar far away. They all felt like it was impossible to stop the impending danger, but that did not stop them from continuously trying to stop the elders.
The dark energy increased tremendously as the incantation continued. Screams of souls could be heard everywhere as an eerie feeling seeped into everyone bones. Great pressure descended on everyone while natural energy seem to scatter and became harder to control.
When the three leader finished their incantation, they laughed manically as visible black energy erupted from the altar forming a gigantic illusory spider which slowly materialized above the mountain. It was so big that it covered half of the mountain where the Black Spider Guild is located.
Everyone gaped in shock, and each one of them trembled in fear from seeing something so frightening.
"No one can stop this now! Hahaha!" Mao Kang flew towards their enemies as he began fighting the opposing elders. With him, the Gao and Yu group leader also slaughtered their way towards the enemy elders.
They were now filled with confidence in winning the war if the illusory spider completed its awakening. Thunderous booms echoed out as they exchanged attack with their enemies waiting for their final weapon to completely form.
Up in the floating platform beside the altar, Ming Li was looking at the direction of the three group leader of the Black Spider Guild while adsorbing the demonic energy. He knew that he could not do anything against the black spider forming, however he still wished to delay its awakening.

Mao Kang laughed loudly as he pulled out a small poison spirit. It seemed weak and harmless, but similarly, the two other group leaders brought out one. Even the two elder of Mao group also pulled out the similar poison spirit. It was as if they were confident on defeating everyone if they activated this poison spirit.
"This will be the end of you all!" Mao Kang said while holding the poison spirit right infront of him.
Everyone stopped their attacks and became wary of the poison spirits the elders were holding. They all glanced at each other trying to read the situation and observe who would attack first.
Ming Li noticed this, and a crazy expression appeared in his face as he laughed loudly while pulling out his own a similar poison spirit! If one looked at it closely, it would be the very poison spirit that turned to ash in the Garden of Death!
"Old fools, now you will die!" Ming Li said loudly while glaring at the direction of the elders.
The elders heard this which made them shift their gazes towards Ming Li. In Ming Li's hand, they saw the poison spirit he was holding. Elder Mao Cheng immediately recognized it as he roared "You brat! So you did not fail!"
"Hahaha! You actually believed I failed!? Since you are an idiot. Now die!"
Actually the poison spirit creation did not fail! The part where it turned to ash was part of the process of creating it which Ming Li planned. It was so that he would be able to keep the poison spirit and use it against the elders.
He then crushed the poison spirit on his hands causing the five poison spirits on the elders possession to also explode! the explosion created a green mist which covered their whole body. Each elder tried to shove the mist away, however, it was ineffective. They knew the potency of the poison; that was why they were confident on using it as one of their secret weapons in the war. However, they never expected it to be used against them.
Their faces fell when they realized they can't escape from the poison, their level suddenly dropped and their strength was reduced by 30%!
The enemies noticed this which made them laugh and launch a deadly attack towards the weakened elders.
Attacks landed towards them as they were thrown back several meters with great injuries from just a single clash. The 30 percent drop in fighting power was extremely high for a fight between seekers at the soul ascension realm.
The three elders glanced at Ming Li with hatred as they ordered "All soul realm seekers, kill that brat immediately!"
Several soul realm seekers immediately flew towards Ming Li attempting to kill him. However, when they were 100 meters near him, their strength dropped by fifty percent! Their faces fell as Ming Li roared and attacked them killing a Soul Realm seeker at a single attack.
"The six poison spirit I created are actually connected and can be considered as one poison spirit. The first five could lower the target's strength by 30 percent, but the sixth one which is on my possession, could lower anyone's strength by 50 percent if they come near me! It is a masterpiece where I used thousands of rare plants to create. It was inspired by the poison at my previous village!"
He then started killing seekers who came inside the range of his attack while still refining demonic energy.
When the number of enemies increased, he was not able to kill them all anymore. While attacking, he then pulled out a Golden Plate. The plate was non other than the one that Ji Chanming gave him.
The Golden Plate floated beside him radiating terrifying energy. With the enemies approaching at fast speed, Ming Li then hit the plate with his fist creating a deafening sound. Everyone who was rushing towards him stopped in place as they observed the Golden Plate beside him.
After Ming Li striked the Golden Plate, flames flickered at its surface as it shot outward forming a gigantic Golden Phoenix which slaughtered everyone on its path. Three Soul Realm Seekers from the Black Spider Guild were instantly killed by that attack.
The incoming seekers were shaken and slowed down their speed. Earlier, they were still confident even if their strength would be lowered by fifty percent. They were sure that, if they cooperated they could kill Ming Li, but with the weapon Ming Li pulled out, they became wary and started planning out how to approach Ming Li.
On the other hand, Ming Li was also worried about his situation. He knew that he could kill some of those soul realm seekers, but soon, he would be outnumbered and would eventually die. Furthermore, he had to deal with the gigantic spider
He continuously striked the golden plate creating Golden Phoenix Flames to threaten and kill some seekers who entered the 100 meter diameter. More and more seeker surrounded him which made him feel greater pressure.
With this, the striked the golden plate twice in succession which created a different effect!

The Demon of Shadows (Hiatus)
Spartans. Genetically modified supersoldiers who participated in the spartan program, which aimed to reinforce and compensate for the humans capability of emotion in order to create the ideal supersoldier. The program itself resulting in the implantation of a limiter for a certain individual, which acted in limiting that persons emotions. Replacing it with a cold logical based calculative mindscape. The limiter aimed to support the ideal supersoldier in completing the objectives assigned to them. Be it mass slaughter, or assasination. One such man who had volunteered to participate in the program to provide data in return for a large sum of money to save a precious friend, has his life lost in battle after years of service and mindless violence. Death, however, was something he usually gave, not to receive. So when death comes to take his life, he awaits in silence, only to be dumbfounded at what is to happen next. This is the story of Nicholas Gray, the Shadow Demon. Note: Story is based on other LitRPGs found on the site such as Dante's Immortality, Necromancer and Co, etc. and on Halo for the majority of the first chapter and possibly later on down the road, I only borrowed things such as the armour and weapons used in the game itself and all credit goes to them for that kind of stuff. I will also perhaps use it to explain his backstroy to further character progression if I can. The cover photo was also a picture I found on the internet and if you wish for credit or for me to take it down just say so and i'll do it as fast as possible. I also don't have a set schedule, and this is just being used to improve my grammar and just as a hobby, nothing more. I will also appreciate feedback in regards to grammar, style, and story in general as this is the first time I have created a story apart from at school, hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it!
