Chapter 279: Chapter 195: The True Golden Sun

Limb regeneration!

What else could it be but a miracle?

In an instant, countless people knelt down with reverence and awe, treating Zhou Yuan as a true god, worshipping devoutly.

Zhou Yuan felt the divine mark slightly warm up, recited the previous lines once more, and then selected a suitable group to grant the Night Divine Power, making them Divine Envoys to maintain and spread the religion in the future.

Of course, whether or not the world had a future remained unknown...

After completing everything, he commanded the male fire dragon and drifted away.

Into the deep darkness.

"Going to the danger zone..."

"Is He going to wipe out the mutated creatures in the danger zone?"

People’s hearts surged with countless waves; perhaps the struggle between wasteland humans and mutated creatures would end today!

...

Zhou Yuan rode the male fire dragon at high speed, occasionally seeing groups of mutated creatures in the old world ruins below casting glances at them. A swarm of bloodthirsty giant bees with the ability to fly attempted to chase them but were burnt to ashes by a breath of dragon flame, scattering and fleeing hastily.

He ignored these mutated creatures, directing the male fire dragon straight toward the direction roughly marked by the power station chief on the map.

About an hour later, a gigantic ruin covered in vines appeared ahead, with faint firelight illuminating nearby, indicating human habitation and a large thriving settlement.

[This was the largest power control center of the old world, generating enough electricity to light up the entire world. Later, it was almost destroyed in the cataclysm. Automatic robots took over a decade to barely repair it. However, just before it could be restarted, the Goddess Night Cult arrived.

Many years later, the expelled followers of the Goddess Night Cult found this place and made it their stronghold. You can find many secrets inside.]

"This is it."

Zhou Yuan retracted the male fire dragon in mid-air, free-falling rapidly and transforming into a shadow at the last moment, disappearing into the darkness.

He approached the building silently, encountering several Spectral Blessed Guards along the way who were playing cards and completely unbothered by their duties.

After all, this was deep within the danger zone, and wasteland humans couldn’t reach here. The surrounding mutated creatures had long been slaughtered, and even if new ones arrived, they’d be deterred by the blood and corpses warning them not to tread here.

After ensuring there were no surveillance or alarm devices, Zhou Yuan acted. In the absolute darkness, the Devouring Shadow seemed like an omnipresent maw, devouring the guards in an instant, leaving no trace behind.

He continued deeper into a spacious hall, which had been converted into a church by the Goddess Night Cult. An enormous statue of the Goddess Night stood in the center, with dozens of followers praying under the Archbishop’s guidance.

Zhou Yuan’s gaze fell on the Archbishop, who gave him an intensely sinister and eerie feeling.

[For years, Spectrals had been crossbreeding with various races, attempting to create offspring that overcame the extreme low-light weakness. After countless bloody experiments, they finally succeeded. A new race was born, but only one of them currently existed.]

[Cleanser, 5th tier extraordinary person, a Half-Human Half-Spectral supernatural creature, Archbishop of the Goddess Night Church.

This name was self-selected because he believed the world was a massive filthy place, and he saw himself as the one chosen by fate to cleanse all impurities, restoring the world’s clarity.]

The offspring of Spectrals and humans, Cleanser... What a crappy name.

Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but mock inwardly.

"Who goes there?"

Suddenly, Archbishop Cleanser turned around, his sharp sight piercing through the darkness, landing on Zhou Yuan. As a Half-Spectral, he possessed a powerful sense of darkness perception.

Seeing he was discovered, Zhou Yuan wasted no time and took out the Eastern Town Rod, striking down on Cleanser. A fiery red barrier lit up, suppressing Cleanser’s power to the same realm.

He then activated the skill — Overhealing.

Rip.

Archbishop Cleanser’s robe instantly tore apart. The left side of his body began to swell rapidly, transforming into a bloated giant with numerous deformed limbs and tumors growing.

He had never seen such a strange and eerie ability, hesitating for an instant, and in that moment, the rapidly vibrating golden rod extended and swept across, unleashing a mournful wail.

Bang!

A thunderous boom shook the entire building. All the followers present were blown apart by the rod, turning into a fine mist of blood, scattering like rain throughout the air.

Archbishop Cleanser tried to use his deformed left arm as a shield to withstand the attack. He had absorbed numerous mutated creatures to enhance his physical strength, but he still fell short before Zhou Yuan’s True Dragon form.

The muffled sounds spread with powerful shockwaves, mingled with the crunching sound of metal against bone. The terrifying weight of the Eastern Town Rod, under Zhou Yuan’s will, kept increasing limitlessly, smashing Cleanser’s body apart, sending flesh flying.

Unrivaled in the same tier was not just an empty boast.

At this moment, a cold and sinister will rose from the shattered remains of Archbishop Cleanser’s body.

Cleanser floated out like a ghost, entirely jet-black, resembling a void leading to the abyss. However, he still maintained a human shape compared to the Spectrals seen before.
