--- Chapter 125 ---

Sky Roc flapped its dominant wings and quickly flew across the vast horizon with outstanding speed.

After investigating the first village, they swiftly flew to the seashore and arrived at a fisherman village near the beach, which was attacked by ten dark creatures.

"Sky Roc!" Yunlong hurriedly commanded.

Sky Roc released a loud cry, which caused a powerful wind storm to sweep over the dark creature to the ocean.

"Charge." Yunlong grasped his hands.

BOOM!

A thunderous roar chimed in the cloud, crimson lightning abruptly struct the ocean with deadly force.

"Don't kill them yet." Gu Yuena calmly said while looking at the abyssal creature, which basically was fried alive.

Gu Yuena's eyes keenly observed the black swirl above the village and sensed a familiar uncanny sensation she had felt in the past.

"The dimensional tunnel became stronger." She muttered in astonishment.

AAAUUUU! ROOAARR!

The dark creatures wholly roared and caused the black swirl to become a dimensional crack in a flash.

"This is bad..." Gu Yuena frowned and solemnly looked at the dimensional crack.

"Something is coming." Kaguya suddenly opened her mouth.

A humanoid silhouette walked out of the dimensional crack. It was a dark elf in a shadowy robe who possessed a weird-shaped longbow.

The dark elf slowly moved his gaze to Yunlong and swiftly shot an arrow at him, which seemed pierced through the space.

Bam! Crack!

Yunlong caught the arrow with his bare hand and crushed it without any difficulty.

A bow slowly appeared in Yunlong's hand, yet a golden line swiftly was sent toward the dark elf's head. "Great Unison Art: Air Strike." He drew air with his hand.

Clank!

The dark elf quickly changed his position, and his robe clashed against Yunlong's arrow, releasing a clashing metal noise.

"You need to pierce and destroy the heart." Gu Yuena commented while drawing a silver spear from thin air. "That's the only way to kill them."

"You should have said that earlier," Yunlong responded with a sigh.

He briefly glanced at the dark creatures on the beach and continued, "You deal with them, and I'll take that one."

Gu Yuena nodded and naturally jumped toward the ocean, leaving Yunlong and Kaguya alone on Sky Roc's back.

"Yunlong, do you need my help?" Kaguya asked while looking at the dark elf with a calm gaze.

"Save them from that place." Yunlong quickly pointed at the villagers, who had survived the first attack.

"Okay." Kaguya quietly nodded her head.

Yunlong and the dark elf stared at each other for a moment. They drew their bows at the same time and naturally launched great arrows.

CLANK!

"Golden Cage." Yunlong grasped golden threads with his fingers. A series of golden rays burst out and formed a complex cage around the dark elf.

The dark elf tried to escape by destroying the golden cage, but Yunlong appeared behind him and rested a sharp blade on his neck.

"Don't move..." Yunlong whispered coldly.

The dark elf's eyes immediately became dull, and he casually grazed his neck against Yunlong's sword.

"Huh?" Yunlong weirdly stared at the dark elf, who fell onto the ground with a lifeless appearance.

[You have killed a cursed dark elf's Archer]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony activated] historical

[You have gained Night Forest's Blessing]

[You have obtained Erk's memory]

Darkness was the first thing Yunlong saw from Erk's memory, but a crimson ray slowly illuminated the darkness. A burning forest appeared before him, and every elf there was attacked by dark creatures.

They slowly were swallowed by dark creatures without any resistance because the strength difference was too huge. Erk fought until he couldn't move his body anymore, which was the end of his life.

However, it seemed Erk's quickly was revived after by unknown forces and became a puppet for them, which they used for plundering another planet.

The scene stopped when Erk's consciousness faded, and a black-robed man slowly descended from the sky with a staff made of bone.

"Kekeke... What a nice puppet I have here." The black-robed man chuckled. "Since we finished this place already, let's proceed to the next place."

Yunlong awoke with a frown on his face, and he looked down at the corpse. "Erk, what a life you have there." He commented with a sigh.

BOOM!

Gu Yuena released an elemental fusion attack, which caused a cold explosion on the beach and froze the seawater.

She peacefully stood on the ice with a calm expression while ten ice sculptures remained around her.

"Not bad..." Yunlong smiled slightly.

Yunlong moved his gaze to the dimensional crack and sensed an ominous spatial element from it. "This..." He frowned because this dimensional crack constantly was connected to some places on the douluo continent.

"This is way more complex than I expected." Yunlong's spiritual sense traveled through the dimensional crack.

"What a mess." Gu Yuena commented while standing beside Yunlong.

Yunlong opened his eyes and looked at her. "We have to find the first created dimensional tunnel and sever it immediately." He solemnly said.

"I know... I'm trying to find it right now." Gu Yuena's mouth twitched in annoyance.

Gu Yuena discovered a spatial line in the north area and hurriedly moved her gaze there. "North, the tunnel originated from the north." She said confidently.

Kaguya approached them with a few people following her, and they were the survivor of this fisherman village. "I have saved them." She silently reported while waiting for Yunlong's response.

"Good job." Yunlong patted Kaguya's head gently.

"We don't have time for patting." Gu Yuena indifferently complained. "Let's go to the north already."

Yunlong created a clone to assist these survivors and called the sky roc to transport them away to Star Luo City, where Zhu Zhuyun would deal with the rest.

"Let's go." Yunlong quickly grasped both Kaguya and Gu Yuena's waists and brought them to the sky.

--- Extreme North ---

The snow empress looked at her snowy land with a gloomy expression because it's been a few months since these invaders came to her domain.

They attacked and even swallowed some of her vassals, which caused her rage to explode. The Snow Empress killed every single of them, but many of them kept coming after that.

A green-haired girl suddenly descended from the snowy storm and approached Snow Empress with a bitter expression.

"Ice Emperor." Snow Empress looked at her close friend, who's more like a sister.

"Snow Empress, we can't keep doing this." Ice Emperor wryly said. "We need a solution as soon as possible."

"I'm trying to find an answer, but they are coming from the spatial crack, which wasn't my forte." Snow Empress responded with a sigh.

"If only there was a person with a great spatial ability.." She slowly moved her gaze to vast white lands.
