I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1319: 18.157 First Grey Star - A Wisp of Life

Flames of the red god engulfed the battlefield. After Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle sacrificed his life to call forth the Nirvana Flame and vanquish the adversaries in front of him, the fire he generated caused all of the previous ice monsters to melt. On the battlefield, the fires are still there. calm and lovely.

Even the frozen corpses from the final waves of monsters from beyond the spatial boundaries had melted and found rest in their never-ending sleep.

A guy and his lion lay calmly, leaning with closed eyelids against each other in the middle of all these blissfully resting dead. The fire-winged lion, a god-level animal, and his master, Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle, inked a soul contract together. Lu Wangle rested his head on his lionʼs body and closed his eyes. He had lost both hands, one eye was bleeding blood, and one leg was missing. vl

Right now, he seemed so content. Like he was just asleep. The portal to the other realm is barred by the red gold flame. The flames are still burning with this couple leading the way. But it does nothing but burn its opponents.

At the rear, inside the main tent...

The messenger who had gone forward and the messenger from Lu Clam who had come across to report on their patriarchʼs decision both gave detailed accounts of the situation at the front.

”Reporting! A new type of monster had come out from the entrance of the dungeon! Itʼs an elemental type monster. Ice attribute. Twenty humanoid dimensional monsters had come out. Request for reinforcement.”

”A new monster? This week hasnʼt finished yet! How can there be a new monster?” Heavenly Guardian Gu exclaimed.

The King, Wang Xingmo, said, ”Was it stated that new monsters could only come out every week? Though this news is good, I want to hear about the situation of Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle instead.”

The messenger showed an ugly look and immediately kneeled down. ”I beg the king and lord to please help Heavenly Guardian Lu!”

Everyone knew at this point that a significant event had to have occurred on the battlefield. They all became solemn at this point as a dreadful premonition passed through their heads. The messenger filled them in on everything that transpired following the arrival of the next wave of monsters.

”Please. Please help. The Ice-attributed monster is too powerful. They were covered with a white aura that could freeze everything on its path. Except for the Ice and Fire ability, users had instantly turned into frozen states. One touch is enough to destroy their frozen bodies, and a lot of people have died because of this.

Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle fought the monsters and led the others. I was sent here to ask if there is any new information about monsters so we can defeat them.”

”Reporting!”

THUD!

Abruptly, a second messenger dashes in. For some reason, a crimson gold fire wraps him, keeping the ice from spreading even though he appears gaunt and coated in it. Out of all the members of the Lu Clan, this man is most likely the most fit to report to the higher ups. His legs were attacked by weakness, and he promptly went to his knees.

Although the other messenger was supporting the man, he was also aware of the manʼs bodyʼs coolness.

”Are you alright?” The messenger supporting the other asked.

”Iʼm... Okay.”

”Reporting! Our troop had been defeated. Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle remained alone to block the monsters. The patriarch used our clanʼs forbidden spell. He burned his own life to summon the Nirvana Flame. The current situation of the enemies and the patriarch is unknown!”

Everyone was astonished this time, especially Heavenly Guardians Mu Zang and Mo Xinyue, and fear crept into their thoughts. Running quickly from the tent, the two of them witnessed several hundred guys covered in fire and ice. The man who came to report to them is not in a better state than they are.

Mu Zang turned to face the battlefield from behind and saw it completely engulfed in reddish-gold flames, resembling a sea of shaded red fire. Although it was an incredibly lovely sight, people who were aware understood that it was a scene of a sacrificed death by a member of the Lu Clan.

The death inside the gold-crimson flames. This incident is documented in the Lu Clanʼs history. The Lu familyʼs blood mystery is known only to those descended directly from the Lus. The Lu family is supposed to be descended from the Phoenix, a legendary race. The Lu Clanʼs fire is far more potent than that of other fire elemental users as a result of this blessing.

There is another mystery in the Lu Clanʼs family history that only the main family is aware of. The Lu Clan has a clear lineage that contains the power of Phoenix blood. They have the ability to use the Nirvana Flames, the power of the Phoenix, by burning their life.

Heavenly Guardian Mo Xinyue felt so stunned that he was dazed. Such a scene can only mean one thing.

”Nirvana Flame.”

Lu Wangleʼs Sacrificial Death

Mu Zang pulled Mo Xinyue toward the battleground right away. As close friends of Lu Wangle, they were aware of the hostʼs condition as well as the repercussions of these flames, even though they were just as astonished as he was. The fact that the fire is continuously blazing indicates Lu Wangleʼs continued existence.

”Wake up. We need to get him out of there! The fire is still there. Wangle is still alive!!” Heavenly Guardian Mu Zang shouted, waking Mo Xinyue from his shock.

Heavenly Mo Xinyue got up right away and prepared to go to the battlefield with Mu Zang. However, Xian Wu, the Heavenly Guardian, stopped them. Despite having joined the gang somewhat later than the other four, he is nevertheless familiar with Nirvana Flameʼs effects. It destroys everything in its path, yet the flames will never harm you unless you are not considered enemy by the wielder.

Furthermore, he thinks Lu Wangle would not designate them as enemies.

Heavenly Guardian Xian Wu said, ”Walking by foot is slow. Ride a wyvern! Also, let Sen go with you.”

Mu Zang and Mo Xinyue accepted the recommendations made by Xian Wu. He was aware that he could not hold these two off. The only option is to encourage them and ensure their safety while allowing them to behave as they like. Mu Zang, Mo Xinyue, and Doctor Sen soared into the sky on the wyvern.

As they made their way to the battleground, they noticed a calm area that defied belief in such a conflict zone.

There are individuals lying around on the ground, their eyes closed as though they were peacefully resting, but the three of them understood that these people were probably dead, or that some of them might have been alive but had gone into a coma. The narrative mentions that they were frozen alive, although it is unclear how many of them survived or whether it was a method of death.

Considering that their bodies were burned and frozen, they are quite fortunate to still be alive.

All pollutants are burned by Nirvana Flame. All negative emotions were also eliminated, and individuals who perished in these flames were either burned to nothingness or had their souls cleaned. All negative states, such as freezing, were canceled, with the exception of death, which was reserved for its most natural condition.

In the middle of the combat zone, they discovered Lu Wangle and his horse. Like other people, they had eyes. Although it appeared as though they were all asleep, nobody is certain if they are still alive.

”Found him! Wyvern, get down to that place!”

GRAAAWW!

Doctor Sen checked on Lu Wangle as soon as they landed at the location where Lu Wnagke was. As Heavenly Guardian Mu Zang, Lu Wangleʼs heartbeat is still present, although it is quite feeble and seems to be going out at any moment. It seemed as though the master and his animal companion shared the same condition as the fire-winged lion.

There are twenty enormous mounds of ashes not far from them; these are unmistakably the remains of the dimensional creatures that the Nirvana flame destroyed.

Doctor Sen stated the results of his checkup. ”They are still alive, but... his state is not good. His body is cooling as if... his life is fading.”

”Is there no other way to keep him alive!?” Mu Zang asked.

Doctor Sen responded, ”We need something to help him support his soul. His soul is too weak. Healers with holy elements can keep this state and prevent his life from fading, but... this means we need to dedicate a healer to keep them alive.”

”Since there is a way, letʼs try it first. Bring them back,” Mo Xinyue said.

Doctor Sen said, ”Letʼs send people here to check for those alive. While the Nirvana Flames are still burning, I donʼt think any monsters will come over. Save as many alive as possible.”

”Okay!” Only then did their small group return to the main tent with a comatose Lu Wangle and his fire lion.

Back at the rear...

Lu Wangle and his fire lion of a mount were given their own tent. Nobody is sure if they are still able to wake them up, as they were both asleep. The lion and the human both had a few pieces of equipment strapped to them to record their heartbeats. Their heartbeats are still faint right now. These two were assigned to receive healing from two healers on a regular basis.

As stated by Doctor Sen, however, this state of affairs amounts to little more than keeping Lu Wangle alive despite her incapacity to fully recover or even awaken.

Numerous fighters and hunters were also spared from the front lines, and the bodies were returned to their relatives. Now, nothing remains on the battlefield save the blazing reddish-gold flame and the trails of ashes left by the enemies who were burned.

There were no monsters, no fighting, nothing at all, and it was a rare tranquil night. The terrain in front of the portal to the other realm was only lit by the unceasing blaze of reddish-gold flames. Everyone was waiting with Mu Zang while he attempted to get in touch with Ye Jingya.

Ye Jingxia and Ye Anxia, on the other hand, played hard enough this morning before making their way back to the tent, where everyone was gathered. Zhi Yang and Tun Shizhe were among them.

Ye Anxia, who was napping in Tun Shizheʼs arms, suddenly woke up and looked at the flames burning on the battlefield.

She mumbled with glowing eyes, ”Phoenix. Phoenix Flame, which had a different shade than mine.”

”This color... isnʼt this Great Grandpa Luʼs flame? Why is there a dying aura of a phoenix?” Ye Jingxia asked in confusion. Even though he can see what is happening, he canʼt understand anything as he doesnʼt know the details. All he knows is that this crimson-gold flame is something his great-grandfather possessed.

Tun Shizhe answered Xiao Jingʼs perplexity. Tun Shizhe never cared about anyone else than kids. He already understood what he probably aspired to while the other two cubs were away. There was no doubt that Lu Wangle—this guy—had experienced something.

”Xiao Jing, for a fire ability user, what do you think fire is to them?” Tun Shizhe said.

Ye Jingya knew the answer and excitedly wanted to respond to his fatherʼs question. ”Xiao Jing knows. For the fire ability users of this world, fire is their source of strength and life. Itʼs their origin!”

”So what does the current state of the crimson-gold flame mean?” Tun Shizhe asked with a knowing smile.

At this moment, Ye Jingxia realized what was happening. For some reason, one of their great-grandfathers, Lu Wangle, is in a dying state.

”Oh no! Great Grandpa Lu is in danger!” Ye Jingxia exclaimed. ”Xiaxia, come help, brother, save Yeye!”

”Okay~ save Yeye!” Ye Anxia said as the two cubs let go of their Father Tunʼs hands and ran towards the place that emits the strongest aura of Lu Wangle. For them, who can easily see through peopleʼs auras, they wouldnʼt mistake Lu Wangleʼs aura for another.

A few moments after the cubs had left, the smile on Tun Shizhe faded. Except for the cubs, he had no affection for anyone around him. A few steps behind him, Zhi Yang was silently observing the man.

Tun Shizhe spoke, ”Do you have something you want to say? You might be somewhat connected to me, but that doesnʼt mean you are allowed to go beyond your means.”

”Please forgive my rudeness. Itʼs just that Lord Hei didnʼt want the young lord and princess to get involved in this war as much as possible.” Zhi Yang kneels on one knee, not even meeting the eyes of Tun Shizhe.

He believed that this man, who shared the same visage as the God of Void, must have some other connection to his lord. Enough evidence exists in the fact that he was unable to resist him. There are very few people in this world who would stop him from achieving anything. Lord Hei is the first, the one for whom he was made. The God of Void, who created him, is the other.

This manʼs intense terror of Lord Hei can only indicate that, despite having no connection to him, he is somehow linked to his creator.

Tun Shizhe thought for a moment after hearing Zhi Yangʼs words. ”I also donʼt want my cubs getting too involved with mortals. They are too weak, too fragile, and too impure. But since they have a blood connection in this world, and my cubs like them, isnʼt it okay to allow my cubs the choice. The choice of whether to save a bug or not.

Though, in my opinion, spending too much emotion on those bugs is a waste of time. They will fade together with time after all. Go and protect them. Take them to rest on time or he... would be angry.”

”As you wish,” Zhi Yang said. The next moment he raised his head, the figure of the black-cloaked man no longer existed. As if he vanished in the darkness, he could never be perceived.
