The flames of the multiverse are repeatedly extinguished and rekindled, and civilizations rotate through glory and destruction. In a long time, there are no eternal things, no infinite possibilities, and no absolute power. Even the world's galaxies will be destroyed by accidents. Decline, not to mention everything created by intelligent life, is perhaps the most beautiful and fragile thing in the world.
But it is precisely because of lack that we long for it. Unlike normal intelligent races that live in a normal world and constantly pursue violence that can destroy themselves, demons who are born with destructive power desire the most creative power that can create the world and revive the flames.
Around the Sixth Abyss, in the endless void, two mighty, majestic and dark, holy and terrifying forces once again collided. The power of destruction that was enough to bring everything to death, and the brilliance that was enough to illuminate thousands of stars. The flames passed by each other, and the remaining waves shook the turbulence of time and space, even affecting other abyss in the distance.
"That's it." The figure of the huge demon holding the two scythes shook violently, and streaks of silver fire flashed out from time to time on its body, but it still sneered - that was the voice of a demon, as greedy as locusts and ants, And as hot as the lava in the abyss: "You are the one who holds the power of creation!"
And just when Goliath was so sure, it suddenly spread its wings, and the endless shadows began to spread, like a black mirror. Countless demon shadows of different shapes, as if they were various races of demons, flew out of the mirror. , their bodies are burning with seemingly hot flames, but in fact, these shadows can absorb heat and kinetic energy from everything they touch, causing them to fall into absolute silence.
It can be seen that countless world wreckage flying in the void are touched by these shadows, and immediately stop moving and lose energy, and then are dragged into the shadows and disappear into the black mirror formed by Goliath's wings.
But Joshua didn't make any defensive moves. He just raised his head slightly and swept through these shadows with the corner of his eye. The materialized light carried reverse entropy comparable to stars, and in an instant transformed thousands of shadows. The demon's body was penetrated. The injury did not seem serious, but soon, it was like a focus was burned on the paper by flames. The flames began to spread rapidly on the penetrated shadow demon, and then burned it out in an instant.
Even when faced with Goliath's seemingly weird attack, Joshua did not panic at all. He calmly used his power to defeat every attack of the opponent with the smallest strength. On the contrary, every time the warrior He clenched his fists and waved them, but Goliath had to stand ready and go all out.
This is not surprising. The skills and combat power mastered by Joshua's incarnation are no different from the original body. The only difference is the issue of 'equivalent', but even with this small flaw, he can pass it. The issue of 'self-summoning' can be solved quickly, and in the face of such a serious warrior, Demon King Goliath's ability, which is related to particle motion and can deprive the enemy of heat energy, kinetic energy and other energy, is no longer weird and mysterious.
There is no doubt that Goliath is indeed powerful, but without revealing its basic cards and using only basic moves, it is impossible for it to fight against Joshua, who has perfected his own strength. Every time, he is evenly matched. The fights between each other all allow the warriors to gain more control over their power, while Goliath can only know that his opponent is 'very powerful', 'strong in defense', 'very fast' and 'a lot of energy'. The enemy's basic The information that the attribute is so high that it explodes is completely meaningless - after all, Joshua only attacks normally from beginning to end, but it has to use one extraordinary ability after another.
As if he felt certain, the body of the standing silver giant trembled slightly. This slight movement caused a visible distortion of time and space in the surrounding void. However, after Goliath noticed this, he let out a strange sound. Laughing loudly, the aura of the Abyss Lord above its head began to slowly grow larger, and the black light began to flash. At the same time, Goliath raised the double scythes in his hands and drew them in the void, forming a black-red magic circle. The prototype began to be sketched out quickly, and countless unfamiliar runes condensed.
At this time, Joshua moved, and his body disappeared. Only a silver torrent could be seen rushing towards Goliath like a straight line. The distorted time and space brought a long groove in the turbulence of time and space. The energy gathered by it turned into a colorful galaxy of light visible to the naked eye in other worlds behind its warriors.
The kinetic energy carried by this impact is enough to directly knock a planet into pieces. If it rushes into the sun, it will also cause a celestial level disaster. And this terrifying energy is all condensed in the four fists of the warrior. The violent silver light instantly drowned Goliath and its magic circle.
But this time the attack was in vain.
Joshua stood where Goliath originally was. He touched the black scar that suddenly appeared on his chest and split the neutron armor, and then smoothed it away. The warrior frowned slightly and glanced around - the abyss lord's huge body disappeared the moment he was about to receive his heavy punch, leaving him in the air. However, Joshua did not find out what the other party had done to be able to do so. While doing this, fight back against yourself.
Although the opponent's long-awaited counterattack could only barely penetrate his own defense, Joshua understood that if this attack were to strike in the ordinary world, it would be enough to take away most of the light and heat of the entire continent in one blow. , while harvesting infinite souls, it also extinguished the earth-fire furnace. This is a genuine 'scythe of death' that can destroy the world and destroy civilization.
However, maybe it’s not that I didn’t find it, but that I couldn’t understand it.
Joshua recalled the strange magic circles and runes drawn by the other party before disappearing. They were completely unfamiliar things that he had never seen before or anything similar before. And just when the warrior was vigilant about the surroundings and began to meditate, he suddenly raised his hand, and three fingers were firmly clamped on the blade of a black giant scythe.
The giant scythe suddenly emerged from the dark void and slashed directly at Joshua's head. However, Joshua's perception and reaction speed almost reached the limits of the material world. He instantly noticed the attack and launched a counterattack. - As the warrior's three fingers continued to exert more force, dense cracks began to appear on the black scythe's blade. Just before half of the scythe was about to be crushed by Joshua, the scythe immediately turned into a shadow and disappeared.
"That's right."
With just such a little flaw, such a little bit of information, Joshua immediately understood a lot of things. He looked around at the dark void around him, and laughed softly: "No wonder your form suddenly changed, and you didn't look like a demon at all. —”
"Goliath, you actually have mastered the power of 'shadow'!"
The information flow stirred by the giant god spread throughout the void. Even in several surrounding abyss worlds, Joshua's voice could be heard, but there was no response in the void, only silence.
[shadow]
In the past, Joshua had studied the changes in the world with several of Mycroft's most powerful spellcasters, including Nostradamus, Barbarossa, Barnir and William. They had discovered the nature of the great demonic tide, and it was very possible that It was the energy frenzy that came from the center of the multiverse and was caused by the destruction of endless worlds. It was they who, through studying the data in the world of Siberia and many other worlds, discovered that there was a new kind of extraordinary energy in this multiverse. strength.
And that extraordinary power was named Shadow.
The original ordinary light and shadow phenomenon was changed in nature in that silent but huge change, and it has since possessed extraordinary elements, just like in ancient times, the spiritual substance of intelligent life became spiritual energy. Just like the wandering energy in the air turns into magic, like ether and the six elements, just like the power of life is given meaning and becomes fighting spirit, when brilliance and love can also become 'holy light', everyone It's not surprising that 'Shadow' can also become the inheritance of some kind of power.
However, the research on the power of shadow is still in its infancy even in the world of Mycroft. By observing those shadow ability users who have awakened their instincts in the world of Xibiya, the mages of the Sky-piercing White Tower have summarized many basic talismans of shadow. Wen, there are also some operating rules,
But now, Demon King Goliath has shown his proficiency in the power of shadow and how to use it - this is really shocking and wonderful.
However, it's not surprising.
Joshua looked around the void indifferently, trying to find out where Goliath was who had escaped into the shadows. This new extraordinary power that had never appeared before was very difficult even for him. Something that can be seen through at a glance, the warrior thought in his heart: "After all, Mycroft's world has many complete inheritances of extraordinary powers. Naturally, he is cautious about new unknown powers, and studies them bit by bit. Not many strong people would abandon their original path and study this power wholeheartedly."
"But demons are different. They don't have so many choices at all. The fact that Goliath can become the Demon King naturally means that he is extremely talented. As a demon king-level existence, he is not afraid of the backlash of failed experiments... In a short time, there will be It is not unexplainable that the power of shadow can be exercised to perfection."
Goliath, who has melted into the shadows, should have melted himself into the ubiquitous shadows in the multiverse at this time. This should not be considered a hidden method, but because Joshua is not familiar with the power of shadows, As a result, he was unable to detect where the other party was.
This is a brand-new extraordinary power that affects the original extraordinary people. They need to adapt to this new environment, learn to deal with brand-new enemies, repair the loopholes in their own cultivation methods and combat skills, and fill in all the extra gaps. ... There are so many flaws in just fighting. For a being who intends to control everything, this new extraordinary power will definitely give him a huge headache.
Goliath said nothing, did not reply, did not agree. Even when the new trump card of the power of shadow was revealed, it did not show any sign. The Demon King silently searched for Joshua's loopholes in the void. They carried out surprise attacks from time to time. Although the warriors were able to put up the most perfect defense every time, it was obviously not Joshua's character to be beaten unilaterally.
And just when Goliath once again emerged from the shadows and launched an attack on Joshua, it seemed to have received some kind of counterattack. Even though the warrior hadn't turned around to block it, his entire body and both scythes were blasted away from him. It bounced far away, and then disappeared into the shadows in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
Joshua slowly turned his head and could see that with the Iron Titan as the center, there were burning fireballs that were constantly expanding and emerging in the silver nebula.
Blue flame, white flame, orange flame, yellow flame, red flame.
Emitting five different kinds of light, dozens of fireballs of different sizes continue to gather and grow in the nebula of the power of steel. They burn fiercely and release strong light of different spectra. These fireballs merge with each other, split, expand, and contract. With these different movements, the light of the fireball also changed rapidly.
At this moment, Joshua was surrounded by these small stars that emitted infinite light. There were more than forty-five small stars, and the number was still increasing. They were rotating around the body of the Iron Titan like satellites. Under the simultaneous illumination of dozens of stars, all shadows in the optical sense no longer exist. Even the power of shadows in the extraordinary sense can never invade this pure 'stellar celestial realm'.
Even without the Holy Light, Joshua can resist shadows. He is the torch that lights the unknown distance, so how can he be afraid of the endless darkness.
"call-"
The Iron Titan raised his four hands at the same time and grabbed four different miniature stars. These miniature stars are very different from the stars formed by nature. Some of them are pure luminous bodies, crystal suns. , some are fireballs similar to real stars, with corona rising from time to time on the surface.
Some micro-stars are actually small flaming galaxies, with cantilevers of different properties rotating and annihilating, bringing out high-heat sparks, while some stars are a geometric model that is constantly aggregating and dividing - you can even see that there is an immortal in the center of some micro-cores. Bird-like shadows are gestating, and some three-legged birds are taking shape.
The crystal star of psychic energy, the flame star of magic power, the galactic star of elements, the geometric star of ether, the star of holy light and life energy... At this moment, the God of Steel evolved almost all the extraordinary power that can bring about it. The light illuminates a small half of the abyss and void.
Joshua looked around indifferently - all the darkness was dissipating, and even the turbulence of time and space gradually calmed down because of his presence, forming a huge concave flat area with endless light, countless different spectra and The extraordinary power is spreading around with the momentum of a supernova explosion, and all shadows and things unrelated to these extraordinary powers are dissipating.
The warrior does not understand the power of shadow - but he understands other extraordinary powers. As long as he gathers and expels all the extraordinary powers he knows, then the only ones left will be existences he does not understand.
The brilliance shines.
Until finally, a huge demonic form could no longer hide its figure and had to emerge from the final shadow of the void.
Demon King Goliath came out of the range of Joshua's miniature stars in a somewhat embarrassed manner, and looked at the warrior from a distance.
"The second time..." Joshua raised the corners of his mouth slightly and whispered.
"I lost." But Goliath got one step ahead - the Lord of the Abyss said: "I surrender."
Joshua: "...?"
