As the last chain fell away, the massive pendulum of life finally broke free from its restraints.

Buzz—!

It was like a sun being lit, radiating an unprecedented brilliant golden light.

On the clock face, countless profound runes rotated wildly, as if they had come to life.

The ancient pendulum in the center began to swing regularly from side to side, and with each swing, it emitted a vast, powerful, and terrifying pressure filled with the aura of life.

This was the true form of a Divine Artifact!

Thor bathed in the sacred golden light, feeling the immense Divine Might rushing towards him, and his spirit was greatly invigorated.

He could no longer suppress the ecstasy in his heart and let out a triumphant and arrogant laugh.

“Hahahahaha!”

“Finally!”

“This legendary Divine Artifact is finally mine!”

He was excitedly thinking.

The next second, the old voice, with an irrepressible hint of laughter, slowly sounded.

“Hahahahaha...”

“Thank you... for breaking my Seal...”

“I can finally... resurrect!”

“Hahahahaha!”

Resurrect?

The smile on Thor’s face abruptly froze.

What did that mean?

Was it not the artifact spirit of the pendulum of life?

How could an artifact spirit be resurrected?

A strong sense of unease suddenly rose in Thor’s heart.

Without thinking, he reached out to touch the giant pendulum of life.

However, just as his fingertips were about to touch the cold metal.

An irresistible, terrifying force suddenly erupted from the pendulum!

Boom—!

Thor didn't even have time to react; his entire body was struck as if by a high-speed train!

A searing pain tore through his chest, and the crisp sound of breaking bones was clearly audible!

He was sent flying like a cannonball, slamming heavily into the mountain of bones in the distance!

The next second, it was as if the entire world began to shake violently!

Rumble...

Rumble...

A dull, rhythmic roar, without warning, came from all directions.

“What is that sound?”

Kaelen frowned; he could clearly feel that everything around him was undergoing some unknown change.

Zhou Huai, controlling Gandalf, finally showed an unprecedented look of solemnity on his calm face.

He speculated, “Don’t you think... that sound is very much like a heartbeat?”

Hearing this, Kaelen subconsciously asked a very foolish question.

“Whose heartbeat?”

Zhou Huai answered without hesitation.

“Whose else?”

“Don’t forget, we are currently inside this big guy.”

Kaelen’s body suddenly stiffened.

He widened his already large eyes, and his charred face was filled with horror.

“You... you mean...”

“It’s this giant monstrous beast, it... it’s resurrecting?!”

“How is that possible?!”

“Why not possible?”

Zhou Huai calmly retorted.

“The pendulum of life controls the rules of life, doesn’t it?”

“It was meant to resurrect life!”

By now, Zhou Huai finally understood everything.

All previous doubts were dispelled at this moment.

No wonder the pendulum of life was Sealed.

Because what was truly Sealed was not the pendulum of life.

But this terrifying giant beast, which had been dormant for an unknown number of years!

The old voice from before was not the artifact spirit of the pendulum of life at all.

But the immortal Soul of this powerful monstrous beast!

This guy had been secretly guiding everyone, step by step, to help it break the Seal.

Ultimately, it would use the vast life force of the pendulum of life to complete its resurrection!

...

At the same time.

On the sea surface within the ruins, the already turbulent waters completely boiled!

Waves several hundred meters high violently crashed against the sea, creating surges a hundred times more terrifying than Gandalf's Forbidden Spell - Meteor Shower!

The monstrous beast army on the sea became extremely agitated.

They were like headless flies, crashing into each other, tearing at each other, as if the end of the world had come.

It was then that a bizarre scene unfolded.

Initially, it was just some low-level marine monstrous beasts; their bodies began to strangely twist and shrivel, the light in their eyes rapidly faded until they completely lost their life.

Immediately after, this eerie death spread rapidly like a plague!

One deep-sea monstrous beast after another twisted and struggled in painful roars.

Their life force seemed to be drawn away by some invisible entity from a distance!

In just a few minutes, hundreds of thousands of deep-sea monstrous beasts were reduced to shriveled corpses floating on the sea surface!

The surviving professionals, whether on ships or hiding on small islands, watched this scene with wide, terrified eyes.

“Who can tell me what exactly happened?!”

“Why are these monstrous beasts dying for no reason?!”

“I don’t know... I just feel... like something terrible has happened!”

And tens of thousands of meters below in the dark deep sea. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

The several Hell-level deep-sea BOSSes let out earth-shattering roars!

Their crimson eyes stared intently at the enormous corpse before them, launching the most frantic, desperate charge!

All sorts of terrifying skills, filled with destructive Qi, poured down on the massive corpse as if they were free!

However, the vitality within the enormous corpse grew even stronger.

It seemed that the vast body, which had been dormant for an unknown number of years, had begun to subtly move!

...

Inside the corpse.

Thor shot up from the mountain of bones!

Lightning flashed all around him, and his handsome face was filled with undisguised rage!

He looked around and could clearly feel the dark red flesh walls around him subtly writhing.

Then he looked at the pendulum of life in the distance, which was still radiating intense vitality.

Anyone who wasn't a fool would understand what had happened!

“I don’t care what you are!”

Thor’s eyes held a cold killing intent.

“Die!”

He knew very well that he absolutely could not let this {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} big guy fully resurrect!

Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to leave here alive!

Boom—!

A violent blue lightning suddenly erupted from his body!

He raised thor's hammer, and the raging lightning power around him, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, surged wildly into it!

He brought it down heavily on the giant pendulum of life!

However, the resurrecting giant beast also seemed to sense the threat.

Hiss—!

From the writhing dark red flesh walls around, without warning, countless thick dark red tentacles branched out!

Those tentacles, like arrows leaving a bow, densely and overwhelmingly, swept towards Thor!

Thor roared, and thor's hammer in his hand erupted with an even more dazzling lightning glow!

However, he had already consumed too much of his Origin power to break the Seal.

Facing this endless barrage of tentacles, he was forced to retreat repeatedly!

Just then.

In the distance, a calm voice slowly sounded.

The person held a staff, and at the tip of the staff, dark green flames furiously condensed!

He chanted loudly, his voice filled with an irresistible majesty!

“Forbidden Spell - Meteor Shower!”
