Chapter 1001: Witch Hunt: Arrival

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Two out of the six elders were traitors. They schemed and poisoned the two Supreme Elders, intending to kill all the inhabitants of the Walpurgis Night and destroy it once and for all.

They were members of the Moon Coven, a gathering of witches formed during the Walpurgis Night's glory days. It was created to prevent the "truth" from spreading in the world. Morgan Le Fay, the Great Matriarch, delved into forbidden knowledge that couldn't be uncovered no matter what.

Le Fay was investigating the calamity, and it's said that her research made some progress. However, she perished before she could uncover the truth-the hidden truth about the so- called "Rebels."

The Walpurgis Night was a small sacrifice to prevent a greater tragedy that could involve all dimensions.

The Witch Hunt Game was a plot created when Le Fay fought against the Commandments long ago. The Purity sent his power into the Walpurgis Night to destroy it, but Le Fay managed to isolate it with her own power. The power of Purity was supposed to obliterate the Walpurgis Night instantly, but her power countered it, giving all the inhabitants a chance to survive. However, Le Fay's power couldn't completely erase the Purity's power, resulting in the creation of the Witch Hunt Game. The six holy stakes were remnants of Le Fay's power before she died.

When Le Fay finally passed away, the Commandments couldn't locate the Walpurgis Night as it was hidden away in the Dream Realm. Though the Purity's power still lingered, he couldn't pinpoint it due to the strong dream power that prevented him from locating it.

They could only wait until the power bloomed to destroy the Walpurgis Night.

At last, it bloomed, and the one who sent the invitation was the remaining power of Le Fay. The game was intended to prevent destruction, but the Purity's power corrupted it, twisting the rules into a macabre contest of killing witches to gain points before they could utilize the holy stakes.

That's the truth about the Witch Hunt Game. Two god powers were locked in a struggle for dominance.

Elder Uiny hovered in the air, gazing down at the devastated landmass below her. She radiated a potent dream power that warped her surroundings with every passing moment.

"And after that, we waited for the moment when the Purity's power would become active, secretly carving magic circles all over the land. The instant we received the invitation, we already knew that the Purity's power was blooming," Elder Uiny's voice reverberated.

Edeya, Captain Sarguan, and Zhang Ren looked at her with grim expressions. They realized that even if they worked together, they weren't a match for an elder. Their bodies were riddled with wounds.

Poisonous Vine stood at the back, surveying her surroundings, trying to find a way out of this predicament.

"You're strong, but it's not enough if you want to kill me," Elder Uiny remarked.

Poisonous Vine clicked her tongue in annoyance. "This is bullshit! Let me take an arm or two!"

As soon as she spoke those words, she charged forward and swung the whip in her hand. Her mana swirled fiercely around the whip, creating a vortex of violent energy.

[Extreme Poison Vine]!!

Elder Uiny narrowed her eyes and stepped back, but the whip chased after her relentlessly. With no other choice, she gathered her energy into her blade. As she swung it, a fierce wind and flames swept out, colliding with the whip.

Bang!!

"You bitch! Do you really think you could kill me so easily, huh? Then why don't you try it? Hehe, did you perhaps know that I'm not alone when I arrived here?! Once you meet those people, then you'll meet your end!" Poisonous Vine laughed as she swung her whip once again.

Elder Uiny narrowed her eyes, moving her body as fast as she could. She made a grabbing motion in the air, and her dream power erupted. Molten rocks rained down from the upside- down land in the sky, each piece containing energy capable of harming higher-level experts. "Idiot! You will die too! You can't kill us without suffering a huge blow!" Poisonous Vine exclaimed before darting around, avoiding the descending molten rocks.

Elder Uiny narrowed her eyes and raised her hand, causing thousands of gigantic fireballs to form behind her. In the next second, she unleashed all the fireballs in Poisonous Vine's direction.

The whole area trembled as thousands of gigantic fireballs descended.

Poisonous Vine attempted to increase her speed, but then she realized she was standing on top of a huge platform. The platform emitted a powerful gravitational force that slowed down her movements.

"This...?! She manifested this platform using dream power..." Poisonous Vine could only watch as the gigantic fireballs descended toward her position.

Boom!! Boom!!

"Let's go!" Edeya exclaimed before dashing forward. She moved through the air, focusing her attention on her target.

In just a second, she arrived behind Elder Uiny. Making a hand gesture, she swung her sickle downward.

[Rapture Cleave]!

Elder Uiny noticed the attack and stepped to the side, but she didn't anticipate the attack spreading out. Blood splattered, covering Elder Uiny's figure. Then, two huge golden palms formed on both sides, crushing her.

Bang!!

As the two golden palms parted, revealing Elder Uiny's bloody figure, Edeya gritted her teeth and tightly clenched her soul weapon.

When Edeya arrived in front of Elder Uiny, the elder lifted her head and opened her palm. A burst of dream power erupted in every direction, distorting the whole area.

Ohm!

Edeya widened her eyes as she paused in midair. She felt her body being twisted in all directions, groaning in pain before forcefully pushing her body away, creating an explosion in

front of her.

Bang!!

Her body flew several hundred meters away before she stabilized herself, taking a deep breath as she looked at Elder Uiny.

Elder Uiny stood at the center, radiating powerful energy. They sensed that she had grown

even stronger once again.

"Battle Warrior... This is the base of my dream power, a manifestation dream. The longer the battle lasts, the stronger I become," she said, looking down at Edeya and the rest.

From her perspective, they were truly formidable to have pushed her to this extent. They were stronger than the top elite squads like the Dark Gold Corps and Crescent Moon Corps.

"I admit it. You people are strong, but that's it. I can't kill any of you right now since you're quite strong, but you will exhaust your stamina before me, and that will be your end," Elder Uiny said in a cold tone.

Edeya, Zhang Ren, and the others remained silent, acknowledging the truth in her words. Elder Uiny couldn't deliver a killing blow to any of them since they were protecting each other, and the same could be said for them-they couldn't deliver a fatal blow to Elder Uiny. Amanda and Princess Iris were breathing heavily, sweat beading on their foreheads. They could barely endure the energy radiating from the battle. Princess Iris's support skills seemed ineffective in the face of the intense confrontation.

Poisonous Vine stood up, ignoring Edeya and the others. She cared little for their well-being, her focus solely on Elder Uiny. "If that's all you've got, then you're not going to succeed in killing every living being in Walpurgis Night. With your strength, you may be able to defeat a Spatial Whisperer in a one-on-one battle, but you're no match against Red Mist."

"Red Mist..." Elder Uiny muttered, narrowing her eyes.

"I don't know her real name, but if you ever encounter her, you'd better call for backup. Red Mist's strength is on par with Thousand Earth and Ice Death. She's keen on wiping out all the witches, so you know, you're probably on her list," Poisonous Vine said.

"Well, she's not here, so what are you gonna do?" Elder Uiny asked.

"It's simple. Keep fighting until I take one of your limbs," Poisonous Vine grinned before

charging forward.

Swoosh!!

Suddenly, a ray of light burst through the upside-down landmass in the sky, continuing to

move forward before slamming into Elder Uiny's body.

Bang!!

Elder Uiny groaned in pain as she crashed to the ground.

"What's that?" Poisonous Vine paused in the air.

Edeya, Zhang Ren, and the others looked at the newly arrived expert.

"I can't let you do that!" A voice echoed as the smoke slowly dissipated. Elder Uiny coughed before she stood up and looked up. There, she saw a young man with

short, black spiky hair with red strands. His eyes were black, and he was wearing brown and white clothes, with a figure hanging on his back.

The figure resembled a little girl with pale blue skin and long red hair. She had dark eyes and a pair of white horns on the side of her head, covered in a long cloak.

"You're the reason behind this killing game, then I will stop you to prevent this madness,"

the young man said, his gaze fixed on Elder Uiny.

"Brother Bryan, you can put me down," the little girl said to the young man named Bryan.

Elder Uiny ignored the words of the young man as she silently closed her eyes. She could feel her connection with the magic circles that were increasing the speed of destruction. It was getting close, so there was only a short amount of time left.

"Fine, then I'll take all of you," she said calmly.
