Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 626: Under the deep shadow

Views:

"What?!"

"what happened?"

"This darkness..."

At the moment when the shadow surged out from the gap in the void and enveloped all the strong men present, the legendary strong men were also shocked to find that the battlefield where they originally fought had been completely shrouded in fog and turned into a sea of fog. A dark space with a strong and oppressive aura. This space is extremely calm and incompatible with the ripples of time and space that are constantly rising around it.

Mist? shadow? dark

How can it be!

Almost all the legendary powerhouses who had some knowledge of the void could not help but be stunned for a moment. As we all know, the void is the nothingness outside the world. Except for the space-time turbulence caused by the space-time fluctuations overflowing from the world itself, there is almost nothing, what time and space. Terrifying void disasters such as storms are nothing more than violent fluctuations in time and space.

Mist... In this terrifying void where even steel battleships would be torn apart in an instant if not protected by runes, how could such a calm mist exist

But now is not the time to think about this. The shadows pouring out from the gaps in the void have shrouded all the powerful people. Then, as the shadows become thicker and thicker, the darkness becomes more and more substantial, and the entire surrounding world of Kronos , the chaotic void that has been stirred by many legendary experts has been swallowed into a huge, ball-like darkness. It is rapidly taking shape, and seems to be turning into a huge egg, a huge cocoon. .

But even if they don't know what is going on, no one will let this dark plan go smoothly.

In the battles of the past few days, although no legendary beings were fatally injured, even the Void Beast Leviathan, which looked the most miserable and had the most injuries, was nothing more than a bruise on the face when converted to a human. , but in the final analysis, fighting requires energy. The continuous high-intensity fighting for many days has indeed exhausted their spirit. In addition, they are immersed in the battle with the opponent and are suddenly attacked. The power of the dark mist is maximized. , so all the strong men were imprisoned at once.

But when everyone reacts, they will never allow this shadow to imprison them!

"What the hell."

In the darkness and mist, Joshua looked around at the darkness that was approaching him. The soldier couldn't help but frown, as if he had seen something dirty.

He clasped his hands in front of his chest and did not take action, but the shadow of the four-armed giant appeared behind him. The shadow of the power of steel hundreds of meters high silently raised its iron fist, and then blasted out towards the surroundings in an instant. Tens of thousands of straight punches with explosive fist winds. Suddenly, the darkness that had enveloped the world and the void and was as calm as dead water suddenly began to shake violently, as if it was bombarded by endless tsunami waves. Look like that.

With Joshua's current strength, there are not many things in this world that can restrain him. Any material that has not reached the ultra-density degenerate material level is useless in front of him, and if the legendary sealing circle does not have a lot of It's fancy, but it can easily be blasted to pieces by him... Time and space can't bind it to one world, let alone others

But strangely, even though the sea of fog was violently fluctuated by Joshua's bombardment, as if it was about to completely collapse in the next moment, it was still not really defeated. On the contrary, it even withstood a unilateral round from Joshua. After the fierce attack, the black mist seemed to be stimulated by something, and suddenly began to grow rapidly - twice or three times the amount of fog suddenly appeared in the surrounding void, approaching the warrior again!

Are physical attacks ineffective? Or does it have the ability to absorb energy and multiply itself

For the legendary strong men, there is actually no guesswork in battle. With their strength and observation ability, any attack will be completely seen through once it appears. In their world, the 'unknown' Attacks are almost completely non-existent, and no matter how subtle and ingenious the techniques are, they can always fully understand them even if they cannot do it themselves.

It was the moment of battle. Joshua's brain was running at an unprecedented speed, collecting all the information around him for analysis. His pupils turned into silver steel luster, sweeping across the surrounding void, and suddenly the microstructure of black mist, energy The concentration, proliferation rate and impact on the surrounding void are all known.

The large-scale aggregation of black particles at the molecular level... looks like mist, but is actually linked into a whole through electromagnetic force.

In an instant, Joshua knew the existence of the enemy - it was not so much a fog, but a net, a huge net that filtered through the void and the world, so fine that ordinary humans could not imagine it! And what it catches is not any specific prey, but the ubiquitous 'energy' in this world!

This is the darkness that swallows the light, the giant web that captures energy!

Heat and kinetic energy are also a type of energy, so Joshua's fists have an effect at the beginning, but after the initial destructive power has passed, that power will be captured by them and turned into food for their own growth... The entire void, because of this The dense energy of the great demonic tide is dissipating rapidly, and the world of Kronos, which is also enveloped by it, has become colder due to the gradual disappearance of energy. After a while, the entire world may be frozen due to this. , and finally became a cold and dead world like the Seventh Abyss!

Although this black mist has been seen through by Joshua, its actions will not be slowed down by this. As the waves of the fog sea surge, the light in the void dims again - the light of the stars lights up again due to the great demonic tide. , the essence is caused by the excessive energy spilled in the void, and the black mist is preying on this energy at this time. Joshua can sense the shocking mental fluctuations coming from the black dragon king Ceano in the distance, as if its Negative energy is no exception and is being swallowed up by this silent darkness.

Many legendary powerhouses present, including demons, dragon kings, void beasts and golden fleets, all attacked in unison at the moment they were swallowed, as if they wanted to break the darkness, but this action did not have much effect, just like Just like Joshua's previous straight punch, the number of enemies began to increase.

After receiving so many attacks, the sea of fog in the void began to squirm rapidly, as if it wanted to start a counterattack and digest these prey in its body.

Suddenly, shadows were condensing inside the darkness, and endless black particles began to rotate rapidly under the violent fluctuations of thunder magic power, that is, the huge electromagnetic force. In an instant, they condensed into millions of raindrop-sized particles, covering the entire body. It was pitch black, as if it were a black needle that could swallow up light, and then it was fired rapidly towards all the legendary strong men in its body!

There was no resistance in the void, and the needles reached their maximum speed in an instant. They were like a rainstorm coming from all directions, piercing all targets. The black mist has encountered many powerful enemies, but no powerful enemy can survive its attacks unscathed.

But this time, I'm afraid there will be an exception.

Joshua didn't know how others would respond. Anyway, for him, this counterattack of the black mist was a bit disappointing. Faced with the endless waves that hit from top to bottom, left, right, and front at the same time, at one twentieth of the speed of light. With black spikes, the phantom of the Steel Titan once again appeared behind the warrior - but what was very different from before was that the phantom of the Titan began to shrink rapidly the moment it appeared, and finally became about the same size as Joshua himself. To the point where it even merged with the warrior's body, leaving only four arms.

You can hear the sound of a huge mass being extremely compressed, and you can see that the surrounding space-time ripples are beginning to sink with Joshua as the center. On the warrior's shoulders, two pairs of silver, metal-like strong arms have been condensed, including Joshua's body. The six fists inside slowly clenched, causing the surrounding void to ripple like a tsunami.

And the next moment, it was a swing.

When the black spikes came at a rapid speed, Joshua stepped on the void with an expressionless face, and his six arms that covered the front, back, left, right, and bottom had already brought about violent time and space ripples, blocking all incoming attacks. Block them all!

The black needles measured in tens of thousands were like heavy rain, hitting at a speed of tens of millions of meters per second, and Joshua's chosen response method was to smash every raindrop.

With Joshua at the center, time seemed to stand still, and only countless groups of ink-like black mist could be seen rapidly dissipating. After having closed his eyes and using pure energy induction to sense the hearts of the surrounding warriors, they all hit almost at the same time. In fact, the black spikes are arranged in order, and what he did was just without any fancy, he simply pointed out his fingers one by one, crushed all the spikes in order, and beat them into black. fog.

Bang bang bang bang bang - there should be no sound in the void, but the black mist produced by the exploding black spikes can carry fluctuations. Joshua's physical fitness and reaction ability have reached an unbelievable level. This kind of ordinary Tong's attack has no meaning to him at all.

-that's all.

Feeling the black mist gathering around him, Joshua paused the action of condensing the spikes because he was shocked by his own response method. Joshua reopened his eyes and scanned the surroundings. And at this moment, as if there was something wrong with the soldier's response, a black spike actually passed Joshua's interception and hit him hard!

But without any accident, this black spike also collapsed into black mist in an instant... The strength of Joshua's body was no different from that of his arms. They were both extremely condensed degenerate substances. His interception made no difference.

But because of this, Joshua nodded in realization: "So that's it. I didn't expect it to be this kind of attack."

After deliberately letting go of a black spike and letting it attack his body, Joshua finally felt the true power of the black spike in person - it seemed tiny, but in fact it was completely condensed by electromagnetic force. The spikes have a density that exceeds that of most matter, and the weak current lingering around it can even cause the disintegration of matter at the molecular level! Coupled with the energy absorption effect of the black mist itself, ordinary energy shields and substances seem to have no effect on the spikes.

The most important thing is that if you are careless and get pierced by this black needle into your body, even a legendary strong man will have his body's energy circulation cut off by the warrior, causing a chain reaction and being injured... A simple and powerful attack, but unfortunately it has no effect on him.

Joshua shook his head. After his body had achieved 27% assimilation of the power of steel, the entire surface of his body was already degenerate matter. Even a single hair would be enough to pierce All the magical weapons, if it weren't for the old Pope's rogue ability to control the speed of light, almost nothing in this world could harm him. Whether it was material collapse or energy extraction, it would be meaningless to the warrior.

"Speaking of which, this condensed electromagnetic force... why does it feel like the power of that ancient dragon?"

"What does this mist have to do with the ancient dragon that possesses the power of thunder?"

The surrounding sea of fog was raging violently, and it seemed that other legendary strong men were dealing with the torrential siege of spikes. However, the darkness around Joshua temporarily stopped moving, seemingly due to the warrior's incredible coping methods and physical fitness. Shocked, but Joshua didn't care that much. Instead, he was concerned about the nature of the black mist's power.

"But it's not surprising that the ancient dragon's power was learned by others and then used against itself. This is very reasonable."

The power of the ancient dragon can be regarded as a natural phenomenon under certain circumstances. It is reasonable for intelligent life to learn knowledge from natural phenomena, arm itself, and then turn around to deal with natural phenomena.

The other side seemed to know that the previous attack was useless to Joshua, so after a pause for a few seconds, the dark sea of mist began to surge violently, which was completely different from how it dealt with other legendary powerhouses. . It is not that the darkness that has fought countless powerful enemies has never encountered enemies that are almost impossible to destroy like warriors, so they know what kind of attacks they should use.

In the center of the dark mist, deep purple lightning spread in the shadows, causing endless black particles to condense through the flashing thunder. It formed an extremely condensed core and began to accumulate energy and quality that made the void tremble!

But it's not the only one that attacks, while everyone else can only be passively beaten.

Just when the dark mist began to condense into the core, on the other side of the mist, Joshua stepped into the void. He radiated high-heat light from all over his body, causing crack-like regular red lines to appear on his body. The warrior took a deep breath, and suddenly, the energy in the surrounding void that had been condensing toward the dark core was pulled by a huge suction force and poured into his mouth. Joshua, who entered the full fighting form, clenched his six fists, and his pupils shone with silver power of steel. He fiercely competed with the shadows for the share of energy, greatly delaying the formation of the dark core.

Joshua could clearly feel that in the center of the darkness that devoured all energy, some incredible change was taking place - a vacuum was emerging. It was not the kind of vacuum in the vacuum of the universe and void where no visible matter exists, but a real vacuum. The true absolute vacuum! The reason why the completely opposite conditions of energy condensation and vacuum appear at the same time is precisely because all the energy in that space is extracted by the darkness and then compressed into the core of darkness!

Extreme condensation and absolute vacuum! Such an extreme situation appeared before Joshua's eyes. Under the constraints of the astonishing electromagnetic force, the dark core was transforming itself into a black aggregate with a density exceeding the ultra-dense material on Joshua's body, and The scope of the vacuum has also been further expanded due to the increase in density of the black core!

The warrior saw through the black mist's plan in an instant. At the moment when the dark core was formed, it planned to use black spikes to directly break its balance and release a terrifying mass tide that could destroy everything. The first explosion was rapidly expanding. The vacuum sucked in everything around it, and the second explosion caused the core of matter to collapse, causing a large-scale collapse of matter and energy! This power is enough to destroy everything, turning everything it sweeps into a sea of pure hot ions!

Vacuum implodes!

"Micro artificial mass points... can't plunder energy, so they will destroy matter?"

Facing the enemy's rapidly condensing material energy, Joshua, who still maintained his human form, stretched out his arm. His expression was calm, and silver brilliance condensed in his palm. Along with the surge of steel power, the silver-white steel swayed over the warrior. The palm of his hand flowed and formed, and finally turned into a cold metal spear. The space shook as the sharp tip of the spear swayed, creating waves of ripples. Joshua weighed it and felt a little dissatisfied, so the red flames merged into the tip of the spear, causing the space around the top of the spear to release a blazing light that was distorted by the depression in the space.

This spear is not a simple spear, but a projection of the power of steel. It is the condensation of degenerate matter with a mass of hundreds of thousands of tons. The weight of a small mountain is compressed into a spear as high as a person, with Qiao Qiao attached. Shuya heats it up to millions of degrees... This is the simplest, most direct, and crudest force in the material world.

"To be honest, I really don't understand. How dare you sneak attack eight legendary beings at the same time and imprison them in your body... Who are you looking down on, darkness? Even God will not be so arrogant!"

Holding the spear in his hand, Joshua narrowed his eyes slightly. He peered through the meaningless line of sight blocked by the black sea of fog, and saw the rapidly forming dark core true form. It condensed very quickly, but the warrior was faster. The steel spear in his hand has been heated by the high heat of nuclear fusion until it is as golden as the sun. The energy of the explosion spills into lightning plasma and spreads towards the surrounding void. An attack capable of destroying everything has been formed in the palm of the warrior.

Therefore, he raised his spear and aimed it at the center of the shadow mist.

—Feel the light of the sun, the unknown darkness.

As the extremely powerful mass projected and distorted the space, only a golden arc of light could be seen breaking through the shadows. The steel spear, accelerated to an incredible level by Joshua's power, penetrated the darkness. It was first in the darkness and fog for a moment, and hit the core of darkness. superior.

There is no sound in a vacuum world.

But, the next moment.

The violently surging light pierced the darkness and illuminated the world of Kronos beneath it.
