Summoning the Holy Sword Chapter 1179

Chapter 1179 - Spirit Rinsing (2)

Rhode extended his arm, while his younger sister who sat opposite him also stretched her right arm forward. Both of them drew a circle in midair and two golden lines emanated from their fingertips swiftly. Shortly after, two exquisitely gorgeous magical rituals appeared out of thin air, spinning as they closed in on Lilian. The little girl began to float off the bed, gnashing her teeth as she looked as white as a sheet. A translucent, human-shaped bubble emanating a hazy glow emerged from her body, gradually breaking away from her. That was Lilian’s spirit and also her essence. At the same time, her right arm turned pitch-black like a rotten and decomposed matter.

This looks really serious.

After separating Lilian’s body and spirit, Rhode and his younger sister couldn’t help but exchange looks, spotting the shock and uncertainty in each other’s eyes. It seemed like Marybelle’s concerns weren’t groundless. After materializing Lilian’s spirit, the group witnessed silks of darkness proliferating from her right arm and spreading to other parts of her body. It was like a stain on white jade, subtle yet glaring. Looking at this scene, Rhode’s heart sank. Even though he knew how hard it was to deal with Chaos, he didn’t expect things to be this tough.

“What should we do, Big Brother?”

“Subdue the Chaos presence, force it back, and we will activate the spiritual rinsing again. Then, Marybelle will be in charge of eradicating it. Is that alright?”

Rhode gave a command quickly. Upon hearing his order, Marybelle nodded gently and retrieved her magic wand. Rhode glanced at the depressed Anne, Lize, Sonia, and the rest at the side, before shaking his head.

“All of you should wait outside.”

“Why, Leader? We want to cheer on Lilian too.”

Anne asked in displeasure as upon hearing Rhode’s command, they were bewildered. However, Rhode apparently had no intention of granting them this opportunity. He looked briefly at Anne and shook his head.

“Best not to do that. The agony of the spiritual rinsing isn’t tolerable for most people. Lilian may turn into a totally different person, so I think leaving her alone will be a relief for her. If you witness her losing self-control, I suppose she will never be willing to meet you again in her whole life.”

“But… Okay then.”

Even though Anne tried to come up with another excuse, Lize held her arm and made her stifle her words. Meanwhile, Sonia pondered for a moment, gnashing her teeth unwillingly and taking another look at Lilian, before finally leaving the room along with Marlene and the rest. Everyone was aware that this might be the last goodbye.

“Alright, there’s not much time left. Let’s begin!”

After ensuring that the rest had left the room, Rhode said quickly. He gazed at Lilian’s spirit and gave a meaningful look to his younger sister. Upon realizing his intention, the younger sister moved her slender finger across the air. Along with this movement, a rune emanating the golden brilliance of the sun appeared in midair, hovering above Lilian’s spirit. Shortly after, under the bright illumination of the rune, the traces of darkness in Lilian’s spirit began to fade away like every weakling who instinctively sought support whenever they faced a powerful threat. The initially spider web-like black silk twisted and turned like worms, crawling as they retreated and once again, blending into the right arm that had turned pitch-black.

“Argh… Argh…”

Lilian gritted her teeth in torment. Although she had shut her eyes, her wild, twisted expression was enough to describe the tremendous agony—the pain of innumerable needle-like worms crawling, squirming, and munching her flesh. This suffering that penetrated deeply into her bone marrow was enough to make her insane. But Lilian held on, gnashing her teeth and tolerating the intense pain. Gazing helplessly at the little girl’s anguished expression, Rhode let out an inward sigh. This was only the start and Lilian was already reacting in this tormented manner. Rhode wondered if she could survive the main spiritual rinsing phase. But now, there was no turning back!

“Second phase!”

Rhode yelled and raised his right arm. Along with this movement, the entire room vanished from sight all of a sudden, only to be replaced by a sky sprinkled with pure, lustrous stars. Meanwhile, Lilian’s spirit was like the sun in this vast sea of stars; dazzlingly eye-catching. The black presence coalesced on her right arm wriggled to break free, but a certain invisible and massive strength pinned them down strongly. The black presence on Lilian’s right arm waned alongside the scattered black silks as though it were a swept-up carpet.

“Argh… argh!!!”

Lilian’s petite body struggled increasingly, stiffening and trembling constantly. She was like a beached fish, flopping to return to the water. But no matter how she wrestled, she couldn’t break free as Rhode’s power had imprisoned the entire space completely.

“Peel off!”

“Argh———!!”

The moment Rhode and his younger sister extended their right arms and held down together, Lilian widened her eyes abruptly and her petite body shuddered. Her head rocked left and right constantly as she gaped but couldn’t utter a word. Although Lilian was mentally prepared for the pain, she realized this was far more agonizing than she had imagined. Along with the actions of Rhode and his younger sister, Lilian felt as though her skin were being peeled off heartlessly. Her entire body was burning and stinging in pain like she was submerged in the scorching lava lake, where unparalleled heat and affliction permeated her body and spirit.

The pitch-black, turbid presence of Chaos on her right arm would have evolved and extended a dozen tentacles like rotten chunk of flesh cut off from a human, lashing at the surroundings. However, with Rhode and his younger sister around to confine them, they didn’t stand a chance at all. If it weren’t for Rhode and his younger sister imprisoning them, perhaps this mutated Chaos presence that also contained the power of Order might turn the situation around and devour them instead. However, Rhode and his younger sister were somewhat experienced in dealing with Chaos now, so naturally they wouldn’t allow Chaos to invade their realm. As a matter of fact, the area around the Chaos presence had completely turned into a vacuum in the realm of Order. In here, there were no Chaos or Order. There was only nothingness.

“Marybelle!”

“I got it, Your Majesty Rhode.”

Upon hearing Rhode’s scream, Marybelle stepped forth and widened her eyes to stare at the Chaos presence as though she were scanning and examining it. At that moment, the Chaos presence instinctively realized the dangers approaching. It began to struggle to break free from confinement. After a few moments, Marybelle raised her magic wand and tapped on it lightly.

Just very lightly.

The frantic Chaos presence stopped moving entirely like a robot that lost its power source and could no longer operate, maintaining its last position inside the void. At the next moment, it began to crumble, shatter, and disappear completely…

“Ah…!! Ah——! Ahh———!!”

But at the same time, Lilian let out a startling scream. She widened her mouth and yelled as though she were being slaughtered. Her eyes had rolled to the back completely. The immense pain made her lose control of her muscles as saliva flowed down the corners of her mouth. At that moment, Lilian was no longer that childish, innocent little girl. She was like an injured and frantic beast instead.

“Lilian, hang in there!”

Rhode was startled to witness Lilian’s reaction. He raised his right arm hurriedly and along with this movement, Lilian’s mouth was as though blocked up by something and her screams were muffled. This was meant to prevent her biting off her tongue from the uncontrollable torment. But now, Rhode had no time to waste. The longer the delay, the more pain Lilian would be in. What made matters worse was that since this ritual was conducted on her spiritual essence, Lilian couldn’t avoid the agony by letting her body go unconscious. All she could do was to accept and tolerate everything passively.

“Get ready to rinse her spirit!”

Along with Rhode’s order, the young lady standing opposite him closed her eyes. Shortly after, a bright, dazzling magical ritual expanded from the rune hovering above Lilian, enfolding the little girl completely. Then, Lilian’s spirit gradually became indistinct.

“———! ———!”

At that moment, Lilian’s eyes rolled to the back of her head like a dying fish. Her limbs convulsed and her body palpated at the intense and stimulating pain. Pale yellow liquid escaped from between her legs. In this extreme torture, no one could avoid revealing their most hideous side. Fortunately, Marlene had led the rest away from the room. If not, it was unimaginable how they would properly face Lilian in the future after witnessing this unsightly scene.

The pure white spirit faded away gradually like snow melting under the sun. At that moment, Lilian had lost all her strength. Her petite body was arched over, while her legs thrashed. They couldn’t see her usual appearance from that now twisted and painful expression. Although Rhode blocked off her mouth to stop her from screaming, the little girl continued to let out deep growls in her throat like a wounded beast.

“Argh———! Argh—! Argh———!”

We need to hurry!

Gazing at Lilian’s expression that was turning ashen, Rhode became increasingly anxious. There was a limit to all tolerance. If Lilian’s body couldn’t handle the pain, she would collapse entirely. Despite Rhode’s distress, he continued to carry out the ritual accordingly with his hands. Under the power of Rhode and his younger sister, Lilian’s spirit and body were rinsed completely. The black spots and thin silks were all gone, leaving behind a white, sacred spirit emanating a gentle and bright glow.

“Phew…”

Looking at this scene, Rhode heaved a long sigh of relief. It seemed like despite the pain Lilian was in, she managed to hold on and protect her spiritual essence. If her spiritual essence crumbled thoroughly, her spirit could never fuse into its original state. Rhode and his younger sister exchanged looks with each other and withdrew their hands. Along with this motion, the spirit hovering above descended and entered Lilian’s body slowly. In just a few moments, it fused with the body perfectly. Lilian also stopped wrestling and fell into a deep sleep.

Rhode nodded in satisfaction.

Seems like it’s over.
