Chapter 975: Ruby (Super long chapter, asking for monthly tickets)

Under the chilling gaze, dense twisted bone columns descended from the heavens, like giant clubs swinging in the night sky, aiming from all directions at the elderly man below.

He Ao watched the swinging giant clubs, stood up and retreated. Then, as the club began to bend in an attempt to intercept his retreat from behind, he leapt directly onto a bone column.

Using that bone column as a base, he jumped again toward another column on the opposite side.

Although his jumping height and distance were limited, he was able to approach the ruby suspended in the air by skeletal arms quickly by utilizing the 'ladder' built by the densely packed bone columns, running and jumping simultaneously.

"Array Command: Prohibit Running"

The red brilliance flowed again from within the ruby, accompanied by the cold voices of the skulls, as if an invisible force was dragging He Ao's body, significantly slowing his running speed toward the ruby.
