After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 98 Grand "performance", ultimate "performance" ([-])
  With the perfect integration of the shimmering sphere and the card slot, the already transparent rock formation magically began to subside, and the violent Mingjin Volcano also fell into slumber again.

No, not right!

Ryan's eyes were fixed on the stone palace.

The magma that should have spewed out is being absorbed by the stone palace, causing red lines to crawl out on its surface.

"This is?"

Ryan couldn't help but said.

"The Blood Moon Temple is an ancient relic inherited from the last era. Its existence is almost unknown to people. To open it, you need a specific 'key'."

Blood Witch Serena explained a few words softly.

"Last era?" Ryan was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses.

The current era is the Golden Era, and before that, it was the Divine Era where the gods were still there.

According to legend, in that era, the kingdom of gods and gods adorned the sky like stars, and faith was the only way.

As red lines spread across the entire stone palace, a fingerprint groove appeared on the dusty door.

The Blood Witch stepped forward, and an indescribably powerful spirituality rose from her body. This spirituality was so strong that it even gave Ryan a sense of insignificance facing the vast ocean.

"The key, plus a pure and unpolluted ray of legendary spirituality, can open the 'Blood Moon Temple'."

The Blood Witch raised her right hand and pressed lightly on the groove of the handprint. The legendary spirituality from the "Circus Master" was also pressed into it by her in the process.

The next moment, the bright bloody light completely occupied Ryan's sight.

After an unknown amount of time, when the light faded, what appeared in front of him was a slowly rotating vortex door.

"The reward I give you is the qualification to enter the 'Blood Moon Temple' here. As for how much you can gain from it, it depends on you."

"Go."

With a gentle wave of the blood witch Serena's hand, Ryan felt that his body had lost control again. He was wrapped in a heavy tide of blood. Together with Freni in his arms, he was rushed into the Blood Moon Temple. In the Whirlpool Gate.

Their bodies were completely swallowed up by the whirlpool door. After more than ten seconds, the whirlpool door slowly closed.

Blood Witch Serena smiled, turned around, took a step forward, and her body turned into countless bloody light spots.

On the edge of the crater, the huge moon wolf sat quietly. At this moment, its body was completely covered with blood, and there was no longer even a ray of pure white in the past.

Blood Witch Serena appeared next to Moon Wolf. She knelt down and hugged Moon Wolf gently.

Compared with Yue Lang, her body shape is so petite, but the scene of the two embracing each other gives people a feeling of incomparable harmony.

As if this is how it should be, how it should be.

"I'm so tired...Finally, it's over..."

In a low voice, the mask on the Blood Witch's face turned into pieces starting from the lower edge, and scattered with the wind, revealing a delicate face, like a girl in her twenties and eighties, bright and moving.

However, the color in her eyes is different from the youthful appearance, full of vicissitudes and old age.

She has lived for one hundred and fifty years.

Serena tilted her head and leaned against Yue Lang, quietly looking at the moon in the sky.

At this moment, the blood moon still hung high in the sky.

The two moons are in the sky, and if you ignore the color of blood, it is really a stunning scenery.

In a daze, the Blood Witch remembered the girl with hope in her memory, but now, everything has changed.

Everything she cares about has long been lost with time, just like the words in "The Hero and the First Witch" that she "directed" herself.

——"Her body has been riddled with holes in the endless pursuit. Her relatives and everything she cares about have been destroyed to ashes."

——"Tell me, if you were the 'First Witch', would you still care about the survival of this world?"

This is a "line", and it is also a question in her heart.

"Fuck this world!"

Serena laughed and cursed, and then she quietly leaned on Yue Lang, welcoming her own "end".

"Tata...Tata..."

At this time, the sound of footsteps sounded from a distance.

Serena lowered her head and looked in the direction where the sound came from. She saw a girl wearing light silver scales and a long sword on her waist, running hard towards the volcano.

The girl's face was extremely pale, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her breathing was rapid, but even so, she had no intention of slowing down.

"Ugh..."

The whimpering in her ears made Serena turn her head in surprise, and she was a little surprised when she looked at Moon Wolf who had set his sights on the knight girl.

"You mean, you feel the blood of the Moon Wolf Royal Family in her?"

"It's incredible. Moon wolf blood appears in humans, and is it the royal blood of the Moon wolf?"

"If I remember correctly, this little guy is also her partner, right?"

Thinking of the sleeping Freni, Serena chuckled: "What a lucky child, you are much luckier than me..."

"With two such partners walking together, maybe you can really break through the shackles of fate, maybe?"

Facing the oncoming knight girl, Serena stretched out her hand and made a slight move. The next moment, a bloody wave appeared at Cecilia's feet under the volcano, completely engulfing her body.

"Just think of it as another parting gift from me."

……

Time back to half an hour ago.

The moment her eyes were completely covered by blood, dark blue magic power burst out from Freni's body, but unfortunately, it was of no use.

The difference between the two sides in terms of magic power and spirituality is as great as abyss.

Seeing this, Freni gave up her useless struggle.

"I wonder how Mr. Lane is doing?"

She thought with worry.

Freni had thought that the witch behind the changes in the Whirlpool Islands was very powerful, but she never expected that she would be so powerful.

Moreover, if they are both witches and there is no hatred, generally speaking, they will not attack each other.

Who would have thought that this powerful unknown witch would attack them without hesitation after they met.

Amid heavy worries, Freni felt her consciousness sinking deeper and deeper. Even if she tried hard to stay awake, it was to no avail. In the end, she fell into the endless abyss. I don’t know how long it took, Freni woke up leisurely.

"you're awake?"

A gentle female voice appeared next to her ears. The witch lady opened her eyes and looked up, and saw a beautiful woman with a smile.

The extremely distinctive white hair made Freni instantly recognize the other person's identity.

——Blood Witch Serena!
  "you?!"

After glancing around and not seeing Ryan's figure, Freni became anxious: "Where is my companion?"

Magic power surged through her body, and even if she knew she was no match, she would not hesitate at all.

"Little guy, don't worry."

"Don't worry, your companion is fine. He is just in another place."

"I will let you meet later, if he is qualified."

Serena smiled, her body looking a little unreal: "The place we are in now is your true spiritual space. The conversation here will not be known by any existence."

"I also spent a lot of energy to get in here."

"We don't have much time. There are some things that I will tell you as soon as possible."

"You must be almost swallowed up by the pollution, right?"

After hearing that Ryan was okay for the time being, Freni relaxed slightly, but the next words made her eyes suddenly shrink.

"The witch's pollution, like tarsal worms, is constantly eroding the witch's body and mind. Extensive and uncontrolled use of magic power will speed up this process."

"I think over the past few years, your use of magic has been too extensive."

Serena smiled: "How about it, do you want to solve this fateful curse?"

"Why are you helping me?" Freni said calmly.

For no reason, even if they are both witches, the other party has no need to help him.

"Why?" The smile on Serena's face grew brighter: "In the past, I was helped by a certain guy when I was desperate. Now that I am dying, I naturally have to do the same thing."

"Dying time?" Freni captured the key words in the other party's words.

"Yeah, I'm about to die." Serena spoke in a normal tone, mentioning her own life and death without much care: "I have lived for a hundred and fifty years, death, isn't it a normal thing? "

"Don't worry about such insignificant things."

“Let’s get back to pollution.”

"The witch's pollution comes from the 'first witch', which is said to be a curse from the 'world'."

"Of course, I don't know the specific details."

"Magic power is unfettered and has the power to reach the source. However, while possessing magic power, the witch is also eroded by pollution."

"The stronger the spirituality and the higher the rank, the more able it is to suppress pollution, but this kind of suppression has its limits."

"Under the influence of pollution, the witch has no possibility of being promoted to a fifth-level legend."

"This is an iron rule."

"Since the beginning of the Golden Age, there has never been a 'law' that no one can transcend."

"Although many witches actually died from the erosion of pollution long before they touched the threshold of legend, haha..."

Serena looked slightly serious:
  "Based on that guy's work, I continued to study for hundreds of years, and finally found a way to break through the shackles of the pollution curse."

"That is, every promotion of the 'Path Profession' is carried out with an attitude beyond perfection. In this way, when you reach the limit of the fourth level, you will have spirituality and magic power that are far superior to those of the same level."

"Based on this kind of spirituality and magic power, and combined with the 'special secret method' I will teach you later, you can break free from the shackles of pollution and be promoted to a true fifth-level legend."

"At that time, the legendary spiritual fire will be able to completely suppress the curse, and we will no longer have to worry about the erosion of pollution."

"How is it, isn't it great?"

Serena smiled and spread her hands.

"...But I guess I won't be able to survive until then." Freni pursed her lips: "The pollution on my body..."

"Okay, okay." Serena covered her mouth and chuckled: "Although your pollution exceeds the standard a bit, since you are here, I am naturally prepared."

"I have a special method that can slow down the pollution on your body to the greatest extent. After that, I will open the 'Blood Moon Temple'. The 'holy blood' inside is a treasure that can allow professionals to break through the spiritual upper limit."

"As for how much you can increase your spiritual upper limit, it depends on you."

"..." Freni was silent. After a few seconds, she said, "So, the appearance of Moon Wolf is to attract witches like me to the Whirlpool Islands?"

"This is only part of it." Serena smiled: "The other reason is that I have an experiment that I want to try at the end of my life."

"After staying at the fourth-level extreme position for so long, I am very curious about what the fifth-level legend is like."

"Even if we can only stop for a short time..."

"A witch's curiosity is very serious, huh."

"Oh, by the way, I have to tell you something. The young knight traveling with you needs to pass my test if he wants to enter the Blood Moon Temple."

"If the test fails...the weak will not be eligible for rewards."

Serena turned around, her tone was obviously smiling, but she seemed extremely indifferent.

"You..." After hearing this, Freni's expression changed. She wanted to say something, but the blood witch in front of her had disappeared.

The next moment, a large amount of knowledge entered Freni's mind.

……

In this world, Serena lowered her head and looked at the young knight who defeated the black knight on the bloody stage below.

"What a gorgeous 'performance'..."

Her spirituality was sublimating and entering a more powerful realm. At the same time, abyss-like pollution invaded her true spirit in the process.

Her spirituality, even after sublimation, still appears weak and cannot stop the erosion of the huge pollution.

But now she doesn't care anymore.

After a "grand" performance, the role she "played" has gone one step beyond the limit.

Enough to become a legend!
