Weapon seller in the world of magic

Chapter 455 A weird ritual in Void Temple: Xin Rui's vow of revenge

In the sky, the divine throne was flying at hypersonic speeds in the form of a fighter that looks like an F-14 Tomcat. Mark was sitting in the pilot seat but he wasn't piloting at all. He just sat in the front and let the girl sit in the back. 

There's a reason why he transformed the divine throne into such an appearance. He wants to give Zan Rong peace of mind. 

He thought it is best if she doesn't see his face for a while after the recent incident as she might not be in the mood to talk. Once her bad mood subsides, he hoped for things to become normal.

They traveled for a couple of hours before ending up at a place that seemed like a large city. However, almost all the buildings were damaged and dark creatures could be seen roaming here and there.

Some of them are two-legged, some of them are four-legged, some of them even have wings, and most of the two-legged ones have weapons like swords, staffs, and bows in their hands. However, all of their bodies are just made up of skeletons. 

And the strongest of them all is an undead dragon, which is sleeping on top of a large mansion located in the heart of the city.

From about five hundred meters away high in the sky, Mark was observing the situation through his sniper rifle. Zan Rong roughly judged the situation and reached out to Mark's shoulder, tapping it.

As Mark turned his head, she said in a worried tone, "Let's go."

"You don't want to check for the survivors?" asked Mark.

Zan Rong shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Not my family or friends. I don't care whether they live or die. For me, getting back home is most important right now."

Usually, Mark also has the same opinion as her, but he didn't expect his brother's girlfriend to turn out to be indifferent to the lives of others but extremely care about her family. For a moment, he felt like seeing himself in the mirror.

However, Mark doesn't agree with her demand. He has quests to finish and there is a good opportunity before him.

Hence, he equipped the Exo-skeleton suit and exited the plane, leaving his future sis-in-law alone in the floating plane. 

"Hey, wait… where are you going?" She slammed the window glass on her side as she looked at Mark, but she only received a response of a two-finger salute from Mark before he dived down toward the city.

Meanwhile, inside the dimly lit mansion, a tanned male elf was seen soundly sleeping on a bed.

At the same moment, Mark's feet touched the ground, his eyes opened, which were scarlet in color and glowing. The veins were black in color contrary to the usual red in elves or humans.

He took a deep breath and sniffed like an animal. A wide grin immediately escaped his mouth, "A strong prey, not an elf but another race. Regardless, I'm going to have a great feas..."

*Boom* *Boom* Boom*

The sounds of explosions were heard continuously far away from the distance and they were getting louder each second.

The elf sprung up from the bed, get out of the room, run downstairs to the exit to see what was happening outside.

He went outside and blew out a whistle.

The undead dragon landed before him and the elf mounted on top of it.

As it flapped its wings and slowly rose a hundred meters high into the air, the elf saw the scene of dozens of metallic puppets armed with unique weapons destroying everything in the city.

And there's someone floating in the sky with a weapon placed under his armpits.

"What the…"

Meanwhile, back on Earth-43;

Void Temple, Dragon Empire;

In the northernmost region of the most powerful empire in the world lies the mountain range of Huangdi, where the temperatures are usually below 10 degrees Celsius even in the hottest summer.

The place is home to several lakes, mountains, spirit beasts, and even high-ranking dungeons, but the most famous of them all is the Void Peak, a mountain known to be the tallest mountain with more than 9800-meter altitude.

Still, one could see houses all over the mountain as they trekked to the top. An ancient temple is sitting on the top of the mountain, looking over the world like a king on the throne.

Ascending the stone staircase, dragon guardians, adorned in gold and gemstones, lead to colossal doors unveiling a resplendent interior. Within, vibrant tapestries depict celestial beings, while ethereal murals merge landscapes with celestial realms.

The sanctum houses a statue of a dragon, which is glossy black in color. However, it doesn't mean it is a black dragon. It is called a Void Dragon, a deity known as the Dragon God.

The entire statue is made of Adamantium and other myriad materials; this mere 20ft statue weighs like 1 million tons. 

No one knows who created it but according to the history, someone who trekked the mountain some unknown time ago and found the statue sitting on the top of the mountain. The temple was then built around it.

When one would hear such a description, one would assume that this place is something like a holy site.

However, the reality is vastly different from the imagination of a commoner who never gets to visit it.

In the sanctum, right where the statue of an ancient deity is present, a couple was having sex in their naked states while several old men and women in their long robes were staring at them in silence. There was a large circle around the couple with mystical symbols inscribed here and there.

This was going on for more than three hours already and neither of them was willing to finish it. If one would look at their facial expressions, it's clear that lust has disappeared long ago and they were no longer enjoying.

Instead, each of them looked quite fierce and they were trying their best to be in a dominant position. Meanwhile, the elders stayed in their spots like statues. No one has any sort of expression on their face. They were completely calm.

Suddenly, the woman's movements became faster as she took the dominant position on the top and her fingers are ravaging his as*h*le while forcefully blocking his legs that are spread apart. The man tried to get up but he was pressed down very hard. 

"Arghhh…"

The man let out a loud scream as he ejaculated the semen into her womb. The moment he did, panic appeared on his face and there was a smile on the woman.

"Wait…"

He was about to say something but the mystical symbols lit up around them and both of them were enveloped by threads of energy.

"No… Wait… please… No..." The man started begging but the ritual can no longer be stopped. Very soon, his entire body disintegrated into thousands of thin light needles before flowing into her body.

"Aaaaa" The lady screamed in pain as each needle pierced her body before merging with her ether particles.

She continuously screamed for the next couple of minutes and the tears were flowing down her cheek like a river, but the pain only magnified over time.

Finally, the last needle merged with her ether particles, and her pain subsided and she collapsed onto the ground.

An elder with Supreme Realm cultivation then walked forward and stopped before her. As she raised her head with dried-up tears, he spoke with indifference, "Good job, Xin Rui. You managed to hold out well and make the breakthrough to the legendary realm. Using my authority as one of the Grand Elders of Void Temple, I hereby grant you the status of Elder."

"Welcome, Elder Xin," the rest of the elders spoke out in unison while bowing slightly as a formality.

The woman with beautiful emerald eyes let out a forced smile and cupped her fists with a bow, "Thank you, Master."

"Now, go and dress up," said the Grand Elder as he turned around to walk away.

Xin Rui walked toward the group in silence. They gave her the way. As she went past them, her facial expression changed and she grit her teeth with clear hatred in her eyes, "The legendary realm. I'm now powerful enough to seek justice for my family. But, I'm not strong enough to have my revenge. I need one more breakthrough. 

Once I step into the 9-circle realm, the Dragon Empire will burn. The princes will die one after another without knowing why or how. I will force the Emperor to kneel before my father's tomb and apologize for his mistake. Until then, I need to keep this rage in myself."
