Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 431: An indescribable beast

Views:

The smell of rust, like steel evaporating, spread and covered the entire Maghe River.

On both sides of the river, the confrontation between the giant of light and the giant beast of life energy has been in a stalemate for several minutes. Ever since the giant tried its best to break free, the giant beast has been acting very calmly and cautiously.

Since this body actually has no substance and is only composed of pure life energy, the outer shell of the giant beast changes layer by layer, with countless tentacles occasionally turning into jointed limbs and occasionally turning into giant pincers. It seems to be thinking about what kind of use it should use. posture to deal with the six-armed giant in front of him.

But in the end, the giant beast stopped all actions, and its huge body stagnated slightly, and then turned into the life force flowing all over the sky, and was absorbed into the body again by a figure at its core.

Herras stood in the air, his dark green hair dancing with the energy flow he radiated. He looked at the giant in the distance, with no emotion in his eyes, and no light of thought and observation.

On the other side of the river, the six-armed giant collapsed almost at the same time, turning into thick veins of life energy, and was absorbed into the figure at the core. Joshua also stood in mid-air. He moved his right wrist, and there was a hint of energy there. Inconspicuous red marks.

After a while, Herras spoke.

"You are Joshua Van Radcliffe, the dragon-slaying lord of Moldavia."

His voice cannot be described as indifferent or cold, because in fact, it is also a word with emotional fluctuations. Herras's voice seems to be synthesized by a biological machine, without any fluctuations, just a simple narrative : "You are more powerful than the rumors and my expectations. According to the sect's positioning, your danger level has risen from slightly threatening to extremely dangerous."

As if he was about to say something after thinking about it, the dark green-haired extreme powerhouse stated his thoughts plainly: "The scheduled plan has changed. Killing you has a higher priority than exploring the ruins of Mount Modes."

"Oh?" Joshua did not react to these words. He had heard similar words countless times. The warrior clenched his right fist, which had completely recovered, and said calmly: "This means What?"

It means the warm-up is over.

After removing the life energy incarnation, Herras was surrounded by extremely powerful life radiation. Of course, with his extremely strong strength, this radiation could be completely restrained in the body, but at this time, he had no intention of paying attention to such a trivial matter. He raised his right hand extremely seriously.

The pale and slender palm was like a crystal made of steel, with no flaws or holes to be found. This flawless palm was lightly clenched into a fist, with only one index finger standing up, pointing at Joshua in the distance.

At this time, Herras' body was still in the dark misty abyss, but the pure light emitted by the extremely powerful life energy radiation illuminated his body in such darkness, and countless flying light points gathered, Let a point of light that is extremely pale and as bright as a new star condense on the tip of his finger.

So pure. When Joshua saw this scene, such thoughts flashed through his mind. Although extremely strong warnings of danger were going back and forth in his mind, at this moment, the soldier expressed heartfelt admiration for this light.

Such a pure gathering of life force is probably only one step away from the power of steel, right? Herras is indeed a strong man at the pinnacle of his will, and he deserves his reputation.

And in the next moment, the light advanced layer by layer, and white light bloomed.

"Buzz——"

An extremely slight buzzing sound sounded, as if it was just a sigh, and along with this buzzing sound, a light that was so subtle that it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye shot out from the fingertips of Herras.

Although it seems inconspicuous, it is actually extremely bright, even more eye-catching than the sun. The entire Magherent River has turned into darkness because of its light, but other than that, there are no aftermath or explosions. Appeared, the extremely concentrated power caused ripples in the space where the light passed, and it flew towards the warrior.

But Joshua also raised his fist.

The extremely thick vitality condenses and burns on this steel fist, which is stronger than steel, and then turns into a black flame. The majestic power makes it shine, and the terrifying heat energy flows in it, just like the real sun.

Facing the silent pale light that caused ripples in the space, the warrior did not waste any energy to make a sound. He just clenched his fist seriously, and then punched hard towards the terrifying light that was directly pressing-

At this moment, a bright crimson light suddenly exploded!

---boom! ! ! ! ! ———

First there was a soundless silence, and then there was a loud noise that could shatter people's eardrums. When Sukrash among the trees in the distance saw this, he hurriedly threw his apprentice down and used his own body as a shield to block the young man. In front of him, his face was distorted by the tremor that sounded like the destruction of the world. He felt that his brain was shaking, and the violent shock waves ran over him again and again, making the knight groan in pain.

And in the middle of the Maghe Ice-free River in the distance, two dazzling lights, one red and one white, were colliding head-on. There was a stalemate between the two. Endless thunder arcs flashed around them, and the water of the Ice-free River was in the distance. At temperatures exceeding the surface of the sun, the gas instantly turned into nothingness. The sand, gravel, and soil at the bottom of the river and along the riverside also instantly turned into ash and shattered into countless tiny fragments.

boom! ! ! ! !

A second violent explosion occurred. This time, invisible fluctuations spread wildly in the area where the two rays of light collided. In the blink of an eye, it cut off the entire Maghe River and blasted out a diameter of several Everything in the huge pit of a hundred meters was crushed into powder and burned into lava by the pure and incomparable fluctuations of life energy, while a round ball of light expanded rapidly and then shattered into fragments of energy that filled the sky.

But in the next moment, probably because both sides misjudged the other's power concentration, the light of life formed by the two people's power was staggered in the violent explosion, and shot diagonally in other directions.

The pale light spreads endlessly in a straight line into the distance, like a white scratch spanning thousands of meters, clearly reflected on the world. It easily penetrates all the hills and peaks along the way, as if it is just a layer. The thin white paper and the white light streaking diagonally upward cut through a mountain peak, and in the next moment, a dazzling golden magma scar appeared on the incision of the mountain peak, and the huge peak above it followed the cut. Following this scratch, it slid down towards the earth, causing the clouds in the sky to separate, like white cloth cut open by scissors.

The black-red glare is completely different from the white light. It carries high heat that dissolves and evaporates steel and spreads toward the distance, producing endless explosions and loud noises. The scorching storm even melts the snow for several kilometers along the way. Returning to the scorching heat of midsummer, this light blasted from top to bottom into a frozen riverside lake. Immediately, endless water vapor began to transpire, like a curtain of clouds rising from the ground to the sky. , the huge cloud pillar was filled with black-red light, and arcs of lightning flashed around it.

Not only that, in the distance, around Mount Modes, the men of eight forces were fighting against the transformed plague cultists.

Before these plague cultists transformed, most of them only had high-level or peak silver-level strength. The gold-level ones only had one Randall priest. However, after completing the transformations of the Blasphemy Spider Demon and the Abyss Giant Armor, their power broke through one by one. own previous boundaries.

The Lord's Mansion of Moldova, the Sky-piercing White Tower, the Royal Mage Association of the Empire, the Qiyao Council, the Eye of Caesar, the Stegory Dragon Mercenary Group, the Fang Adventure Team, the Blue Shield Mercenary Group, eight forces with a total of seventeen golden warriors and their The subordinates are fighting these strange monsters whose power has skyrocketed. Each blasphemy spider demon can involve a large amount of silver-level combat power, and the most powerful ones require the help of gold experts to deal with them.

But the most troublesome thing is the abyss giant armor transformed by Priest Randall.

This giant insect monster, which is more than ten meters tall, is extremely powerful, and its carapace is even harder than steel. Even a golden strong man cannot break through its defense in a hurry. Now this terrifying giant beast is on the earth. It charged like a chariot, leaving deep traces on the soil and rocks.

Brandon and several other golden warriors were fighting this giant abyss armor. The blond swordsman held two swords and calmly slashed at the opponent's body. The two sacred swords could easily break through the giant armor's carapace. , causing real damage and making the opponent howl in pain.

With his strength, there is no problem in single-handedly defeating this giant abyssal armor. However, there is not only the blond swordsman on the battlefield at the foot of Mount Modes. The knights of the Moldovan Lord's Mansion are fighting the blasphemous spider demon. The abyss The giant armor could care less about its men, but Brandon couldn't do that and could only drag the opponent in place.

And Verdani was also helpless. She was a war mage, and the spells she was proficient in were all terrifying spells that could break through the city with one blow and shatter the city walls and mountains. But when this kind of thing is used on the melee battlefield, it is equivalent to annihilating both the enemy and ourselves. , so the purple-haired mage could only build a magic circle behind the blond swordsman. Golden crystals composed of elemental power were suspended behind Veldani, and from time to time he would shoot out more than a dozen extremely sharp beams, trying to destroy this The giant abyss armor on his head was nailed to the spot.

But Priest Randall let out a loud roar. Although he transformed into a monster, he did not lose his wisdom. With reason, he could even use divine spells. A brown halo of filth surged around the giant armor. Devouring the light emitted by Veldani one by one, the next moment, it was like a huge steel chariot, rushing straight towards the purple-haired female mage.

Veldani did not dodge. Even though she was unable to use her best war spells, she was still a high-level golden mage. She saw layers of magic barriers built out of thin air in the atmosphere. It seemed that she wanted to block them head-on. The collision of the giant armor of the abyss.

However, she suddenly trembled and her movements stopped. The blond swordsman roared when he saw this. He jumped up like lightning, hugged the female mage in his arms, and immediately left the place.

The charging Abyss Giant Armor didn't know why, but it abruptly stopped its charging. It didn't even hesitate, turned around and ran away in the opposite direction.

The next moment, a pale light streaked through the atmosphere, breaking through the original positions of Veldani and the Abyss Armor, and slashed diagonally towards Mount Modes.

boom! ! ! !

A moment later, there was a loud bang, and the peak of Modesi Mountain, which was not considered tall and majestic, was immediately cut open by the light. Under the gaze of everyone present and the deformed monster, the huge peak slid down the lava scars bit by bit. , and a cave entrance located in the center of the mountain peak, leading directly to the depths of the ground, appeared in front of everyone.

The entrance to the ancient ruins has been opened!

No one, including the blasphemous spider demon, had figured out who was sending the extremely dangerous light that even easily separated the mountain peaks, but this did not affect the endless thoughts swirling in their hearts. Only Brandon and Randall The priest looked in the direction of the light at the same time. The human eyes and the six pairs of green observation holes of the giant armor flashed with the same shocked light.

"Joshua!" "High Priest of Herras!"

Both of them also sensed the earth-shattering battle that took place in the distance, and the terrifying tidal fluctuations of life energy were transmitted here only at this moment, causing all the gold-level powerhouses present to feel a shock in their hearts, sending chills down their spines. rising.

And in the distance, on both sides of the Maghe Bufrog River, the two people who were attacking Hung Yi with life energy fluctuations were still in a stalemate.

Joshua's whole body was filled with boiling murderous intent like the core of lava. He squinted his eyes and scanned the opponent's energy flow and weak points with his red pupils. But this time was different from the past, even if the target was extremely powerful. The dragon's observation ability that can easily see through weaknesses seems to have completely lost its effect. Herras's body is filled with a life energy shield as thick as the earth's crust. It is not that there are no weaknesses on it, but even the weakest place needs to be Only with all your strength can you break through.

This is the benefit of a deep foundation. Even if a warrior crosses several worlds and kills chaos monsters crazily, he can't compare to the opponent's decades of accumulation. Herras's power is so strong and his power is so exquisite, even if it's not Perfect, it can also be said to have no flaws.

At this time, this warrior's unprecedented formidable enemy suddenly said: "The ruins have been opened."

Even after the fierce battle, Herras's voice showed no emotion. He turned his head, looked in the direction of Mount Modes, and said lightly: "Sure enough, the fragments of 'it' are here, and the seal is still very strong. stable."

"seal?"

The warrior who was confronting the high priest of the cult couldn't help but be stunned, but he quickly realized the meaning of the other party's words. Joshua suddenly realized: "Yes, Palm Print Lake... This is the battlefield against evil gods and demons in the Age of Glory. Why?" There may be ruins! So, at the bottom of Mount Modes is the seal of an evil god or a fragment of an abyss lord! No wonder you have always had plans for the North, and you never gave up even if you suffered such a heavy loss!"

This line of thinking is broken at once, and only other forces who don't know the truth will really think that the bottom of Mount Modes is a relic from the Glorious Era!

Herras did not continue speaking. He moved his eyes and locked on Joshua. The expression of this strong man who was at the peak of his powers and only one step away from becoming a legend changed slightly for the first time. His brows Wrinkled slightly, he seemed a little unhappy: "Your vitality is the strongest I have ever seen, but my absorption power has no effect... Joshua, you are a good opponent. If I fight with you, my The road has been somewhat confirmed.”

"Unfortunately, not now."

Before he finished speaking, Herras's body suddenly bloomed with a black halo, and his body began to expand rapidly with this halo - not that life energy was manifested, but that it expanded in the true sense!

In just an instant, the body of the high priest of the cult turned into a huge, shapeless and indescribable thing. When it touched the ground, it began to absorb and assimilate the soil. In an instant, tens of tons of river water And the sandstone was swallowed by it. Whether it was organic matter or inorganic matter, whether it was solid or liquid, everything was assimilated by the monster transformed by Herras.

Joshua took a long breath. Even he was shocked by the opponent's unexpected move. Just when he gathered his strength and prepared to attack this indescribable thing that resembled a sponge or a ball of meat, its... However, countless dark green lights suddenly lit up on the body, which were eyeballs and compound eyes that were constantly rotating. They were densely packed, like a scene in a nightmare.

The dark green eyeballs rotated crazily, and streams of almost substantial light of life shot out from them, focusing on Joshua who had no time to dodge, freezing him in place. The next second, this huge monster was assimilating everything around him. A thick tentacle shot out and pulled the warrior into his belly.

I got gastroenteritis today, probably because I ate something unclean after returning home...
