678: Chapter 678 The Army of Purifying Angels

Chen Yi raised his hand and blasted away a God Emperor-level Fallen Angel that was trying to sneak attack Lin Mengxue from behind: "Did you not feel anything before?"

An Ran sighed: "It's not that I didn't feel anything, it's just that subconsciously, I completely couldn't believe that the Will of the Heavenly Dao would actually make me do such a thing!"

"After all, from the moment I was born, the mission bestowed upon me by Lord Chen Yu was to bring happiness to the planets with life!"

"And a portion of my power originates from the Heavenly Dao, and perhaps even my very existence is due to the Heavenly Dao—"

"How could I possibly believe that the existence telling me to destroy everything is the same Heavenly Dao I have always followed?"

"However, I believe it now!"

Chen Yi asked: "Then what do you want to do?"

An Ran smiled slightly: "Just as you thought!"

"However, my power originates from the Heavenly Dao, and I fear my Soul has already been eroded by the Will of the Heavenly Dao!"

"I reckon anything I do will be useless, but if there were a relay station—"

At this point, her gaze fell upon Chen Yun.

The meaning was clear—she wanted to hand over all of her power to Chen Yun, so that Chen Yun could replace her and fight against the Heavenly Dao alongside Chen Yi and everyone else!

Chen Yun was stunned: "Me, can I do it?"

Chen Yi casually destroyed another Fallen Angel that wanted to attack Su Taotao, and without turning his head, he teased: "Didn't you think you were capable just now? Now you're not?"

"I—" Chen Yun lowered her head, her face blushing with shame.

She remembered her "I want to destroy the world" stance from just a moment ago and wished she could find a hole to crawl into!

An Ran smiled: "Alright, now is not the time for this! If possible, try to capture those angels alive! I should be able to seize back control of them from the Will of the Heavenly Dao!"

Chen Yi raised an eyebrow: "You can do that too?"

"Yes, I am confident!"

"Alright then!"

Chen Yi took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared from where he stood.

The next second, he had already appeared behind a God Emperor-level Fallen Angel.

He raised his hand, and a golden light surged from his palm, turning into invisible chains that bound her tightly.

Then, he casually opened the Crystal Palace and tossed the Fallen Angel inside.

The entire process took less than a second!

He did not stop, and his figure disappeared from where he stood once again.

Another God Emperor-level Fallen Angel was currently hunting down a few fleeing Ancient Gods.

Chen Yi appeared in front of her, backhanded a barrier to Seal her, and threw her into the Crystal Palace!

Another one, another one, then another, and another—

In just one short minute, he had captured nearly a hundred angels!

Everyone else on the battlefield saw this scene and instantly understood Chen Yi's intention—capture the Fallen Angels alive and convert the enemy's power into their own!

This was a great opportunity; it would weaken the enemy, strengthen their own side, and allow them to perform a great service!

Countless people began to shift from killing to capturing, and those Ancient Gods and Heavenly Gods who were capable followed suit!

Although they couldn't do it one per second like Chen Yi, if a few people worked together, they could subdue one with some effort!

The situation on the battlefield began to change quietly!

The number of Fallen Angels was decreasing, and more and more Fallen Angels were being captured!

---

This battle lasted for three days and three nights.

In the Void Realm of the Taihuang Land, light and darkness intertwined, and roars were mixed with deafening booms.

The five-million-strong army took turns fighting; one group would retreat to rest when tired, and another would take their place.

Although the Fallen Angel army was massive in number, the five-million-strong army's coordination became increasingly tacit; from initially fighting on their own, they eventually formed a complete offensive and defensive system.

However, the power of those Fallen Angel replicas was still too eerie.

They felt no pain, no fear, and did not tire; they only attacked tirelessly.

Coupled with Chen Yi's order to capture them alive, meaning they couldn't be killed directly, the difficulty of the battle skyrocketed.

Many warriors often had to pay a price several times that of their opponent just to capture one Fallen Angel!

Chu Feiyu's Nirvana flames never extinguished, and Yue Wen's time reversal almost never ceased!

The two God Emperor-level support units forcefully kept casualties within an acceptable range, but the exhaustion in everyone's hearts had accumulated to the extreme!

But in the end, they were victorious!

As the last Fallen Angel was knocked unconscious by a punch from Zhao Zhao and thrown into the Crystal Palace.

Deafening cheers erupted across the battlefield.

Every single Fallen Angel had been captured alive, not one escaped; it was a resounding and satisfying victory!

Chen Yi stood in the Void Realm, looking at the starry sky that had been purified, and let out a long sigh.

"I suppose this is the end of it, right? Next up is to purify those angel replicas!"

---

Three days later, inside the Crystal Palace.

Chen Yi brought Chen Yun and An Ran into the space where the Fallen Angels were being suppressed.

It was an empty area locked down by layers of barriers, and the captured Fallen Angels lay densely packed on the ground.

The dark aura on their bodies was still slowly circulating, but because they were suppressed by the barriers, they could not move.

Every Fallen Angel was unrealistically beautiful, but at this moment, they were like sleeping stone statues, lying there quietly, waiting to be judged.

An Ran walked up to the first Fallen Angel, knelt down, and gently placed her palm on her forehead, letting her power flow into the Fallen Angel's body through the center of her brow.

Wherever it passed, those dark purple, entwined patterns of despair were dispelled one by one, spreading from the forehead to the entire body.

"Come, Chen Yun, you give it a try!"

"Alright, I understand!"

Chen Yun took a deep breath, imitated An Ran, and placed her palm on the forehead of another Fallen Angel.

The light also surged into that Fallen Angel's body, dispelling the darkness bit by bit.

In just an instant, the Fallen Angel's hair changed from dark purple back to silver-white, the pitch-black wings began to turn white from the roots, and the dark red patterns faded from her white dress.

The ferocity on her face disappeared, replaced by an expression of tranquility.

She opened her eyes; her pupils were no longer a glaring red light but a gentle, pale gold. She looked at Chen Yun, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and then she slowly closed her eyes, continuing to sleep.

Chen Yun felt a strange connection.

It was as if an invisible thread had bound their powers together.

She could feel her existence, perceive her state, and give her simple instructions through her mind!

Chen Yun was a bit excited: "It worked! It seems I really can control them!"

"After all, their power actually originates from me; it is perfectly normal that you can control them!"

An Ran said indifferently, "You did well; let's continue, don't waste time, time waits for no one!"

"I understand!"

The two women exchanged a glance and walked towards the next pair of Fallen Angels simultaneously.

In the corner of the Crystal Palace, the Fallen Angels within the barrier were being purified one after another.

The whole process was not complicated, but it was extremely exhausting and also a troublesome task!
