Chapter 360 358-Heart of Fragmentation
Luther pursed his lips slightly, not pressing further.
Everyone has their secrets, and since Ethan chose not to share, Luther understood that he couldn't insist.
"What are we going to do now?" Ethan asked.
"Use the Hypnotic Perfume," Luther replied, leading Ethan forward. "We need to make sure Elida and Sebastian fall into a deep sleep."
The fact that Herman wasn't mentioned meant they intended to target him first.
Whether Herman slept or not actually didn't matter much.
As long as Elida and Sebastian couldn't assist Herman, that was enough.
Luther stopped in front of Elida's cabin, pulling out a glass bottle.
The bottle contained a pink gel-like substance. Though Hypnotic Perfume had the fluidity of a liquid, it also possessed the viscosity of a gel.
The presence of two such contradictory sensations in one substance struck Ethan as peculiar.
Luther unscrewed the bottle cap, and the Hypnotic Perfume instantly surged out.
Once it encountered the air, it transformed into a gas and enveloped Elida's cabin under Luther's guided exhalation.
Then, as if being absorbed, the Hypnotic Perfume rapidly flowed into Elida's cabin and completely disappeared.
By then, half of the Hypnotic Perfume in Luther's bottle was gone.
"Let's go, to Sebastian's place next," Luther said, leading Ethan to the next cabin.
The same procedure was repeated, and Luther finally took a deep breath.
"That's done. Now you need to assist me in retrieving the Heart of Fragmentation from Herman. Otherwise, I'll just be a burden to you."
Ethan nodded firmly and followed Luther to Herman's cabin.
At that moment, Herman's cabin was glowing with a deep blue light, resembling the mysterious blue of deep-sea jellyfish.
Luther pushed open the door, and Ethan finally saw Herman's current state.
Herman was sitting on a cushion in a devout, prayer-like posture.
His body continuously radiated the light of divine crystals, and the Magic Circle above his head was constantly rotating, as if absorbing power.
"Herman is also a vessel?" Ethan inhaled sharply in shock. What exactly was happening in this camp?
Even Herman, the overseer, was just a part of a vessel?
Luther's expression was solemn as he nodded slightly:
"Correct, as you see. These Magic Circles are like a net, locking all of us in the camp, leaving no one able to escape."
Ethan's throat bobbed as he swallowed hard.
What secrets were hidden within the divine crystal mining mountain, and why would someone as powerful as Herman be part of a vessel?
Luther's gaze locked onto a chest next to Herman.
He walked over and opened it.
Inside lay a long sword, covered in rust and corrosion. Had Luther not informed him that this sword was the Heart of Fragmentation, Ethan wouldn't have given it a second glance even if it lay abandoned by the roadside.
Luther attempted to take out the Heart of Fragmentation, but the Magic Circle within the cabin vibrated.
A blue barrier emanated from Herman's body.
Luther tried to lift the Heart of Fragmentation, but it seemed as heavy as a mountain. Despite using all his strength, his expression contorting with the effort, he struggled to move the sword.
"What's wrong?" Ethan asked, curious.
"There's an enchantment carved on the Heart of Fragmentation, making it immovable," Luther said, his face etched with defeat.
After all, it wasn't the first time he had encountered such a setback.
Ethan motioned for Luther to step aside, then placed his hand on the Heart of Fragmentation.
The Golden Divine Dragon Blood within his body surged like a tidal wave, unleashing immense power.
Even golden scales appeared on Ethan's arms. manhua
He was now harnessing the Power of the Dragon, a force capable of moving mountains and shattering stones, yet it seemed futile against the Heart of Fragmentation.
Ethan's eyebrows twitched as he released his grip from the sword.
"What do we do now?"
Luther clenched his fists and gritted his teeth:
"There's no other way. I have to use a Blood Sacrifice to retrieve the Heart of Fragmentation. But during this, I can't be disturbed, so you'll have to deal with Herman's passive defense alone."
"No problem." Ethan knew this wasn't the time for bargaining or delays. They needed to act quickly to avoid complications.
"But if my Blood Sacrifice is interrupted, I'll be severely injured or even risk death. Do you understand what you'll be facing then?" Luther still harbored some concerns.
Ethan's eyes flickered with determination.
What would he face? Facing Herman alone, or even all three of them, and possibly even drawing out the Thousand-Faced Demon Spider...
"Isn't this a situation with no way out?" Ethan forced a smile, looking somewhat tragic, "If we don't succeed today, I won't be able to fend off Elida anymore."
Luther fell silent instantly, and an eerie quiet fell between them.
"Ethan, hold on."
With that, Luther sat down cross-legged, slapped his chest, and three drops of bright red Essence blood floated in front of him.
Ethan stared at the three drops of Essence blood, astonished.
He had thought he had correctly estimated Luther's strength, but now it seemed Luther's power far exceeded Ethan's expectations.
Each of these three drops of Essence blood contained a potent sword aura.
Ethan even felt that if he got too close to the Essence blood, his skin would be sliced open.
The sword aura within the Essence blood was so pure and intense that just a glance at it made his eyes ache and almost brought tears to them.
Ethan quickly averted his gaze, only watching Luther's actions from the corner of his eye.
Luther channeled his sword technique, and the three drops of Essence blood revolved around him like three stars, but their movement was not random.
Ethan could see clearly that the Essence blood was painting patterns around Luther, using the blood as ink, leaving traces in the void.
When the three drops of Essence blood eventually dissipated in the air, a red thread matrix appeared around Luther.
This matrix enveloped Luther, unleashing a massive surge of power from his body.
The powerful gust of wind billowed Ethan's robes.
Ethan sharply turned to look at Herman, noticing his beard fluttering in the wind, indicating the strength of the gust.
Everything inside Herman's cabin was blown to the ground, creating loud noises.
Even Herman's eyelids twitched slightly, as if about to open.
"You didn't tell me it would be this loud, did you?"
Ethan braced himself, cursing inwardly.
As Luther's Blood Sacrifice formation was activated, the Heart of Fragmentation began to tremble at a lower frequency, but still could not break free from the enchantment engraved upon it.
Suddenly, blue light flickered on the Heart of Fragmentation, and the enchantment on it materialized, transforming into a small blue figure.
Luther's Blood Sacrifice formation also transformed, morphing into a small red figure.
The two figures, like bitter enemies upon meeting, glared fiercely at each other and immediately entangled in combat.
Luther's face turned pale as he tightly closed his eyes.
"Roar—"
As Ethan was observing the scene, a roar erupted from Herman's body.
"Is he awake?" Ethan startled, quickly turning his attention to Herman.
But Herman still knelt on the ground, with the power of deity continuously emerging from his head, being absorbed into the Magic Circle.
Ethan realized this must be Herman's passive defense, as Luther had mentioned.
The sound wave rushed towards Ethan, and when it invaded his body, a fierce beastly roar erupted within his soul consciousness.
lightsΝοvεl ?οm This roar seemed to resonate through heaven and earth, as if trying to tear Ethan's soul from his body.
Ethan recited the Soul Language of Nature, stabilizing his soul.
But the sound wave then targeted Luther.
Luther had said he couldn't be disturbed.
Ethan took a large step forward, positioning himself in front of Luther, intercepting the sound wave attack intended for Luther.
"Pfft—"
Ethan instantly spat out blood, with blood also trickling from his nose.
Soul attacks were straightforward but lethal and extremely dangerous.
A slight miscalculation could result in severe soul damage, reducing one to an imbecile.
A worse outcome could mean instant death, with the soul ascending to heaven.
Ethan's eyes reddened, his heart pounding:
"Just this sound wave attack is so powerful, if Herman wakes up, couldn't he practically blow away the entire divine crystal mining mountain?"
With the sound wave attack ineffective, the Magic Circle began to rotate again.
The power of deity flowed within the Magic Circle, illuminating some previously unlit areas.
Suddenly, a hand as if forged from gold emerged from the Magic Circle, so massive it almost filled the entire cabin.
It seemed like a hand of deity stretching down from the sky.
It rapidly reached towards Luther.
Seeing this, Ethan brandished his Dragonblade and roared:
"Come at me if you dare."
The Dragonblade collided with the gigantic hand, and the immense force sent Ethan flying backwards.
The Golden Giant Hand, unobstructed now, continued its reach towards Luther.
Ethan recited the Thunder Language of Nature, moving towards the giant hand as fast as lightning.
Channeling all his strength into the Dragonblade, he fiercely slashed at the Golden Giant Hand.
The Golden Giant Hand shifted slightly, narrowly missing Luther as it passed by.
