Chapter 665: Chapter 491 Praise “The Night”, Victory is Ours!_1 Chapter 665: Chapter 491 Praise “The Night”, Victory is Ours!_1 “Damn, that manipulative bastard!”

Someone couldn’t help but curse under their breath.

However, before anyone could respond to his words, the old man suddenly spoke up:

“He wants to breach those defenses, charging straight at us to launch the final attack! Be careful!”

No sooner had his voice faded than they saw the gigantic fireball, hanging in the sky whose size was difficult to discern, suddenly stop its relentless ascent thousands of meters above.

Immediately afterward, it began to plummet towards this place!

And with its descent, everyone present felt an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Under the power of that enormous fireball.

The surrounding clouds were shaken apart, and with them, the atmospheric pressure of the area compressed and vibrated unceasingly under the fireball’s fall, making breathing become somewhat labored!

“Can we… really withstand this?”

“What in the world is this thing? Are we really just dealing with an Angel Envoy, and not a True God!?”

“….”

The power that surpassed the Flame Giant caused the resolve that had just been kindled in the hearts of those present to sink once again.

This force had already surpassed many natural disasters!

It even went beyond their comprehension!

In their minds, only those beings invoked in prayers, truly transcendental above all, could be deemed worthy of the name God, capable of unleashing such power!

The only way to contend with it was to invoke “The Night”…

But how could that be possible?

Many among those present had undergone the “Eternal Night” ritual numerous times.

They knew better than anyone…

That what overflowed from that darkness was only an untouchable darkness.

Some so-called “Messengers of The Night,” who could “listen” to His words, people could only confirm he heard something, but what exactly he heard, no one could validate…

“Don’t overthink it, don’t despair!”

“It’s not time to give up yet! Advance with me, coordinate with the ultimate ‘Wall of Dusk,’ block it!”

Accompanying these words, the elder suddenly stood up, his eyes overflowing with intense darkness streaming out like tears, at the same time, a great amount of darkness enveloped him completely.

Then, without looking back, he charged straight into the gigantic fireball that lit up half of the sky.

Not long afterward…

The huge fireball collided with the core defense area’s “Wall of Dusk” without any delay.

There was no sound from the collision…

But everyone couldn’t help but feel their eardrums vibrate, a buzzing noise echoing in their heads.

But fortunately…

This time, the darkness, imbued with countless people’s efforts, finally held back the seemingly indestructible giant fireball…

Instead of, like before, shattering into pieces the moment it was merely touched.

But it was just holding back, with violent ripples spreading wildly.

It looked like it would break just like some of the outer “Wall of Dusk” barriers in no more than a minute!

However, it was at this moment…

The old man, encased in dense darkness like a gushing fountain, managed to brace against it.

The moment he made contact, his mouth and nostrils spilled blood, some blood vessels on his skin burst instantly, feeling an indescribable pressure, but after a moment of mental blankness, he suddenly stretched out his hand, pressing it against the “Wall of Dusk.”

“Sizzling…”

Even through a wall, but the slight force of the flames that penetrated still caused the skin on his hands to peel away.

Some blood and fat even turned into grease and dripped down at that moment…

Extreme agony coursed through him.

But the old man did not let go; instead, he continued to channel strength into the ultimate barrier, holding back the enemy’s onslaught…

At the same time, the members of The Dusk Sect who had recovered their senses also began to move.

Thousands of “Semi-Extraordinary Ones” exerted their force at the same time, and a dense darkness rose from all directions, flowing into the old man’s body before surging towards the “Wall of Dusk” ahead.

The profound darkness and the scorching fireballs continued to wrestle with each other in their clash.

The terrifying charge from the fireballs persisted…

Under the onslaught, countless obscure inscriptions on the “Wall of Dusk” were scorched and burned away by the flames.

But fortunately, as each minute passed, another surge of human dark power rose to withstand the blaze.

In the deadlock, many “Believers of The Night” from various regions collapsed on the ground, utterly exhausted, and passed out…

Even the old man’s consciousness gradully began to fade from overusing his power.

Finally, it was uncertain how long they had held out for.

The immense pressure slowly weakened…

And soon, it vanished completely.

Had they successfully blocked what seemed to be an apocalyptic attack?

“Did we, block it?”

“Haha, yes, we blocked it, we finally did it!”

“If we can block an attack like that, what chance do they have of getting in!”

“Praise ‘The Night,’ victory is ours!”

“…”

Some people couldn’t help but cry out in their exhaustion.

Hearing the voices below, the old man’s bloodied face revealed a slight smile of relief.

However, before his happiness could last long, he discovered that all the “laughter and cheer” suddenly disappeared, and immediately after, his heart “thudded” sharply.

He saw a burning figure standing atop the “Wall of Dusk” above his head.

The figure slightly raised their chin, looking down at him with an air of superiority, and the continual overflow of flames in their eyes betrayed a look that seemed to mock yet also acknowledge him.

And meeting his gaze, the young man enveloped in flames slowly extended his palms.

“Clap clap clap~” came the crisp clapping sound.

The man, while clapping his hands, spoke in a tone that sounded casual, but filled with a certain arrogance and hauteur:

“Not bad, not bad at all. Considering your numbers and strength, it’s truly not easy to have blocked my move that rivals that of a Level 2 Containment Subject…

“After all, even if a Level 2 Containment Subject were struck in its main body, it would turn into a new source of energy on the spot.

“And you, although the level of power used is high, the amount is too little. In my view, it should have been easily penetrated…

“But now, to think you’ve actually blocked it, that is indeed unexpected.

“However…”

His words stopped there.

However, what?

The old man’s heart tightened, sensing a deep unease, wondering what the other had not yet said.

But at that moment, he suddenly noticed something, raised his head, shifted his gaze, and his whole body stiffened, his pupils constricting to the size of pinpoints!

“Another one?!!” he exclaimed in shock.

Behind the halted fireballs, he saw a new round of fireballs that were no less in size and amount than the previous.

This new round of fireballs, in terms of size, scale, and intensity…

were almost indistinguishable from the first.

In fact, they were even slightly stronger!

“How will you deal with this second ‘Sky Light Fall’?” the young man’s indifferent voice reached his ears from above.
