Chapter 1388: Purification
Chapter 1388: Purification
January 27th, 2018
Beyond the world, atop a black mountain outside Bright City, Liu Bolin gazed silently down upon the city below, his expressionless face belying the anticipation in his eyes as if waiting for something.
Suddenly, a pure white, holy light soared into the sky from within Bright City.
Upon witnessing this sacred light, Liu Bolin's face lit up with uncontrollable joy, his eyes fixed on the city.
The holy light reached its zenith and began to spread out, sweeping across the land like waves. In the blink of an eye, it enveloped not just Bright City but also the surrounding area for dozens of miles.
The warm, sacred light seemed to burn like a flame within the city. Within just thirty minutes of its appearance, this holy light had completely purged the malevolent and demonic energy that had shrouded Bright City.
The light did not disappear after dispelling the malevolent energy but instead, after purification, began to retreat.
In the blink of an eye, the sacred light condensed into a basketball-sized orb floating about 500 meters above Bright City, quietly guarding the city. With this, the purification of Bright City was complete.
After its evolution, Bright City underwent a significant transformation. What was once a gloomy city with a predominantly black color scheme now exuded brightness and grandeur. The oppressive and fearful atmosphere was gone, and even the sight of the city instilled a sense of unexplained peace.
However, Liu Bolin's attention was not on these changes in the city but on the land beyond its borders.
The land within fifty li (approximately 25 kilometers) of Bright City and the land beyond it were two extremes. While the land within fifty li was also black, it lacked the intense darkness of the land beyond. More importantly, Liu Bolin could sense the vitality of life within the land within fifty li of the city.
To Liu Bolin, this was an impossible miracle, and it had occurred right before his eyes within less than a day of Lu Hai Kong's arrival.
Witnessing this, Liu Bolin knew that his decades of waiting had not been in vain; he had finally encountered the person he had been waiting for.
A smile spread across Liu Bolin's face, and he turned to leave with purposeful strides...
...
Beyond the world, within Bright City.
There were two others who were equally shocked, perhaps even more so than Liu Bolin—Chang Yu Chun and Qi Ji Guang, who had been captured by Yue Ying and Ma Dai.
After being captured by Lu Hai Kong, they were still contemplating how they would resist and fight to the death against him.
But to their surprise, Lu Hai Kong didn't even bother to meet them; he had purified them along with Bright City.
When the holy light shone upon them, eradicating all traces of malevolent and demonic energy from their bodies, they were transformed from extra-dimensional demons into humans within a mere half-hour. The two men were left dumbfounded by Lu Hai Kong's unconventional move.
Moreover, the thought of becoming human again had never crossed their minds, and at this moment, they were completely stunned, their minds blank.
In fact, the moment they realized they had become human, their emotions were most volatile. During this time, Lu Hai Kong could have easily recruited them, but he chose not to take any action.
At this moment, Lu Hai Kong had actually forgotten about those two guys. Admittedly, Chang Yu Chun and Qi Ji Guang were both talented individuals. One had a Strength Value over 100, and the former's Command attribute exceeded 110, both impressive feats.
However, unfortunately, it wasn't ten years ago. Currently, Lu Hai Kong had nothing but an abundance of generals under his command.
Not to mention those with Command attributes over 100, but there were countless generals with Strength Values exceeding 100, totaling over a hundred.
With so many capable generals, Lu Hai Kong didn't pay much attention to Chang Yu Chun and Qi Ji Guang. Additionally, he had other pressing matters to attend to at this time.
Lu Hai Kong was currently occupied with two main tasks: troop transportation and expansion.
First, regarding troop transportation, since this was the first time using the Cross-Domain Gate, Lu Hai Kong was unaware of the conditions beyond it or the adversaries they would face. Thus, he brought along his most formidable lineup, consisting almost entirely of generals, without any soldiers.
After stabilizing the situation and securing Bright City as a foothold, Lu Hai Kong naturally began transporting soldiers and various combat resources from Ironclad City.
Apart from troop transportation, Lu Hai Kong also had to assign combat missions.
Upon capturing Bright City, Lu Hai Kong had also gathered intelligence about the surrounding area.

Upon discovering that the nearby demon cities were all small-scale, with populations around ten thousand, and their leaders mostly summoned to Xianyang, Lu Hai Kong seized the opportunity.
While directing the transportation of troops from Ironclad City, he simultaneously issued attack orders.
However, due to the absence of soldiers, Lu Hai Kong employed an extravagant tactic for added insurance. He divided his over a hundred generals with Strength Values exceeding 100 into three teams.
These teams were led by Huang Zhong, Lu Bu, and Dian Wei, each with around fifty members. Each team was assigned a target to besiege!
Deploying a team of fifty to attack a demon city with at least ten thousand extra-dimensional demons seemed like a crazy idea. If people from the Three Kingdoms World heard of this, they would undoubtedly declare Lu Hai Kong insane, questioning how fifty soldiers could possibly defeat ten thousand extra-dimensional demons.
However, the perspective of those from the other side of the domain was different.
Especially when the three small teams led by Lu Hai Kong's generals approached the demon cities, the defenders went into a frenzy!
In their eyes, Lu Hai Kong was undoubtedly a madman!
A team of fifty, with one member's Strength Value nearly reaching 130, four or five around 120, and the rest all over 100, was an incredibly formidable lineup.
This kind of lineup could rival a top-tier force, yet he was using it to attack a small city with only ten thousand inhabitants. Lu Hai Kong truly didn't take generals with Strength Values over 100 seriously!
