Chapter 367: Return! World Task Reward
The Bone Sovereign saw the divine attribute that exploded from him being taken away, and then saw the weak human nearby unexpectedly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He grew even angrier. Even though he had just awakened and his demigod power had not yet recovered; even though his body had been severely damaged and not yet healed, he still wanted to crush this ant to death.
He opened his mouth and let out a roar that shook the space, the surrounding space began to distort, and bone creatures like a tidal wave were swept into the distorted space, instantly crushed into fragments.
The distorted space rushed toward Lu Heng from all directions. Under such demigod power, unless one was also a demigod, it was impossible to resist or escape.
However, Lu Heng shouted out those two words almost simultaneously: "Return!"
The next instant, Lu Heng's body faded away.
The distorted space gathered at the spot where Lu Heng had been, crushing space and annihilating all matter.
Yet Lu Heng was unharmed, for he had already returned to the main world through recruitment rules.
After Lu Heng disappeared, the Bone Sovereign, being attacked for the second time, propped up his five-meter-tall body and roared to the sky.
The roar shook the sea, causing tsunamis to spread from the Wugu Blue Cave, with surging waves rising over ten kilometers of sea surface, and even life a hundred kilometers away was dispersed by this terrifying pressure.
The Sea Demon Clan's ship had already sailed out of a hundred kilometers, but the Sea Demon crew on board still felt intense spiritual pollution.
Fortunately, the distance was enough, and the spiritual pollution was still within a bearable range.
Even so, the Sea Demon crew looked back and saw the monstrous waves rising from the Wugu Blue Cave, each one shocked in their hearts.
They were all glad that Lu Heng had let them leave first, for if they were still near the Wugu Blue Cave, they probably wouldn't have escaped. This chapter first appeared on M|V|L^EMPYR.
...
In the Wugu Blue Cave.
Tens of thousands of biological skeletons came to life, sank to the seabed, and crawled before the Bone Sovereign as if servants worshipping their monarch.
"Damn Summoner!" The Bone Sovereign had no outlet for his anger, and the exploded power destroyed most of the Wugu Blue Cave.
After venting, his body fell into a weakened state again.
He was indeed very weak, having been sleeping under the Wugu Blue Cave for so long, originally to accumulate power. With just a little more time, he could awaken and return to his peak.
But he never thought he would be severely injured a second time by a weak ant.
The previous sword had broken all his breastbones, and now there was a big hole in his chest cavity, and part of the divine attribute had been taken away.
Not only was he angry now, but he also had to prepare for the impending crisis.
Because he had a natural enemy in another world, he chose to sleep here to hide his aura in the deep sea.
Now that he had awakened and was forced to burst with demigod-level power, surely that presence would discover him.
He must leave here and search for energy to restore his full state.
He gathered his remaining demigod strength, cut open a space rift with his finger, and stepped in.
Behind him, several powerful biological skeletons followed into the space rift.
One biological skeleton was too large to pass through the space rift, directly shattered into fragments, and was carried by the skeletons behind it into the space rift.
The skeleton army of the Wugu Blue Cave was too numerous, and the space rift could not last long, so only high-rank bone creatures could follow.
A moment later, the space rift closed, leaving behind tens of thousands of biological skeletons.
These biological skeletons, originally worshipping, seemed to lose their soul for a moment when the space rift closed, shattered into bone fragments, and covered the seabed.
...
After the Bone Sovereign left, shortly after, a Void Eye opened in the seawater, scanning the scattered bone fragments with a cold gaze.
This Void Eye, a meter wide, with a black vertical pupil, stared at the destroyed skeleton coffin for a moment, then slowly closed, bringing no change to this sea area, as if it had never appeared.
...
At the same time.
All the Human Recruiters were teleported away from the Dragon Sleep World.
As usual, first a bright light stung their eyes, then they fell into endless darkness.
At the moment of returning, Lu Heng saw the fragmented space crushing from behind, those twisted, shattered spaces like colorful broken shards, all left behind the moment he teleported away.
Then, the Abyss Battlefield return data appeared before him.
