Chapter 4000 Song of the Purple Moon (51) — The Essence of the Sun?
Ultimately, the aura of the Divine Dragon reached a certain extreme, just like a butterfly about to emerge from its cocoon, always stuck at the last moment!
Full but not overflowing.
This final step felt like a chasm between heaven and earth... Ah, Xi Ruo felt a sense of emptiness, as if she could see an endless ladder to heaven that she still needed to climb.
These thoughts came very quickly and were soon replaced by a surge of power!
Thanks to the baptism of the Heart Refining Pool, a secret place of inheritance, the true dragon of Shenzhou did not succumb to this false power... She breathed a sigh of relief and clenched her fist.
False power—master it!
Her golden eyes were like those of a god. Only at this moment did Ah Xiruo realize how terrifying Testarossa was—even though she had already used the effect of [Holy Mark] +1, she still didn't have the confidence to completely crush her opponent.
【Radiant Moon】...It seems that it's not just a simple comparison of strength.
This should be the limit of my current development of the [Stigmata]... The effect of [Stigmata] +1 is quite overpowered, but the True Dragon of Shenzhou can obviously only achieve a small +1 at this time. Facing a monster like Testarossa, it is impossible to achieve a large +1 across different levels...
Most likely, given his current physical condition, he simply couldn't handle the "big +1" state, right?
“Your Highness over there,” Ah Xi Ruo said calmly, “why don’t you deal with your opponent first… that guy in the white tortoise shell seems to be getting impatient.”
...white tortoise shell?
Upon hearing this, the corner of the King of Light's mouth twitched slightly, and his expression darkened... How could he be impatient?
—No, you, with that level of power, aren't you an enemy of Testarossa?
In fact, at this moment, the [Radiant King] was indeed planning to at least temporarily join forces with the enemy of his enemy... So, the [Radiant King] silently gripped the twin swords in his hands.
"Then I thank you very much." Testarossa just chuckled lightly, showing no concern whatsoever.
Regardless of what you think in your heart, you still need to maintain your composure, right?
Her crimson eyes instantly turned to [Radiant King].
The King of Radiance frowned, and the Great Temple of Radiance instantly expanded outward, directly covering the entire space... A palace formed from dark energy instantly appeared in everyone's sight!
"Come on, rebel leader, let's finish this battle!"
At this moment, the [Radiant King] also displayed a rather heroic fighting spirit—it's just a pity that the background of the [Radiant Great Temple] is dim, which makes it look quite gloomy and doesn't feel like a "temple" at all, but more like a "demon palace"!
Testarossa said calmly, "I've already said that even if you defeat me, it won't matter. You're already a figure of the past."
He had some doubts just now, but now he realized that this "self" was probably not real... perhaps related to Gazef, and there was a shackle binding him in the dark.
It seems that there is an entity in this place that he absolutely cannot resist, controlling him—but for some reason, this entity has not given him any instructions... Or perhaps, the other party is currently too busy to manage anything?
"Whether it's meaningful or not, we'll talk about it after the results come out!" [Radiant King] was clearly not someone who could be influenced by a few words.
His power increased once again... and it was a leap forward!
The speed is even faster than before!
The moment the two-handed divine sword was activated, it had already slashed in front of Testarossa—Testarossa narrowed her eyes slightly, and with a raised hand, a black line instantly blocked the two-handed divine sword.
"Oh? You've gotten stronger again?"
[Deadline] This time, the resistance seems to be quite difficult, and Testarossa can't help but fall into deep thought... It seems that this maze is more interesting than expected?
She suddenly changed her mind about dealing with the fake "Radiant King" so quickly—after all, she needed time to analyze everyone here.
...Especially the one who gave her the most dangerous feeling, who had been standing quietly to the side, a blonde woman with blue eyes who, despite wearing a female pirate outfit, exuded a noble air that was nothing like a pirate.
There was another kind of aura that she found extremely repulsive, which seemed to be... the aura of [that place].
However, if it really is "them", then there is no need to worry too much, because Testarossa knows very well "them" style of doing things and rules!
……
"That's how they fight..."
Shenzhou's True Dragon continued to activate the [Holy Mark] effect, not because of Zhang Bolu's [Dragon Sparrow Breaking Formation Song] buff, so she habitually wasted her stamina, but because in this state, she could better feel the [Radiant Moon] combat style—which was probably her biggest deficiency at the moment.
In the land of China, either you can't withstand a single move from her, or she can't even withstand one before screaming in pain... There's simply no room for you to learn from her.
She also wanted to see a battle of masters, but unfortunately, her friends in China weren't cooperating...
Just like Ah Xiruo's focus, the Pirate King was also showing a surge of fighting spirit and eagerness to try his hand at the game. He had finally broken through and evolved, and this was the time when his mentality was at its strongest, but he could only stare blankly, which was somewhat frustrating!
But as the "King of Pirates," Zhang Bolu disdains teaming up with others—if he's going to fight, it has to be a one-on-one duel, and he'll fight to the death without regret!
Thus, the Pirate King, bursting with fighting spirit, instantly turned his gaze to Lady Shinone—clearly, this ancient top-tier magic creator was also a formidable opponent!
In an instant, Lady Xinonie sensed Zhang Bolu's fighting spirit and was taken aback, but immediately understood his intentions.
She couldn't help but chuckle softly, "What, you want to use me as a testing ground? You'll have to pay a price."
"Hahaha!" Zhang Bolu laughed loudly, holding the [Dragon Sparrow Ring] as he soared into the sky. "Behind every price is a gift from fate! Lady [Shinone], thank you for this battle!"
"Boss, I'm here to help you!" [Xiang Feihu] appeared instantly!
"Get out of my way!" Zhang Bolu waved his hand dismissively. "This is my war!"
[Xiang Feihu] was taken aback for a moment, but obediently retreated. As Zhang Bolu's crew member, she did need to abide by the captain's orders; this was her self-discipline.
The [Dragon Sparrow Ring] instantly unleashed a stunningly beautiful blade of light, slashing towards Lady [Shinone]—this eight-foot-tall, voluptuous lady, who at this moment still wielded a massive black hammer created by the demon, withstood the [Dragon Sparrow Ring], a renowned Void Artifact among the top 100 inner-class blades!
The clash was like two torrential rains colliding, its momentum no less than that of Testarossa and the [Radiant King] who were currently fighting!
……
Miss Witch felt a chill run down her spine.
This Pirate Queen has gone mad again—if it were her, she would definitely team up with the violent maniac and the Radiant King to first take down His Highness, then betray him and take down the Radiant King, and finally join forces to take down this stunningly beautiful and slutty bitch with the amazing figure!
Ultimately, he won alone!
This is absolutely perfect!
At a time like this, what's the point of talking about chivalry? You can't just refuse [Xiang Feihu]'s help...
However, since she had already chosen the side of the Pirate King, there was nothing she could say—after all, if Xiang Feihu went berserk, it would be enough to give her a hard time.
"Dream...can I really win this time?"
"It's hard to say." Xiaomeng blinked, then nodded seriously. "But I will try my best... because I also want to try and see if I can influence this level of [fate]."
She felt that the "fate" Xiaomeng spoke of was different from her own understanding of fate... A look of doubt flashed through her mind, and the witch silently threw a silver-gold ball the size of a tennis ball behind her.
The sphere landed silently, and like its owner, it rolled stealthily to the side before finding a gap to slip into—to be honest, Miss Witch didn't trust any of the people here, not even Xiaomeng.
—She only believes in…and only loves herself.
At that moment, the eerie, constantly writhing "wall of flesh" in the surrounding space suddenly tightened!
Then, a dark golden spot of light appeared on a "wall of flesh"—the spot of light spread rapidly like ink spreading out!
Soon, the surrounding "walls of flesh" turned a dark gold color and were no longer in a bloody mess. They even looked somewhat eerie and solemn!
"What...what's going on now?"
The witch gasped instinctively. Suddenly, a huge crack appeared in the dome, and a massive, dark gold pupil surrounded by countless intricate runes was rapidly opening!
In an instant, countless sounds, like demonic chants, rang out in the air!
ah--! ! !
A piercing scream suddenly rang out at that moment.
Ah Xi Ruo subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound and discovered that the person who screamed was none other than [Golden] Shaq—this ambitious [Great Pirate] who was almost subconsciously ignored by all the powerful people present... and could only be relegated to the role of a small fry here!
[Gold] Shaq covered his head with both hands, his body convulsing, and a visible gray aura emanated from his body, continuously merging into the dark gold maze.
I feel like I'm about to be completely drained?
Zhang Bolu suddenly frowned, looking around with surprise and uncertainty. The evolved [Dragon Sparrow Breaking Formation Melody] instantly gathered around him, with nine war drums beating wildly!
That feeling that could disturb his mind reappeared—but the "dragon energy" given by Ah Xi Ruo was still there, so the Pirate King only felt his mind was disturbed, not completely out of control!
Lady Shinone, however, stopped what she was doing. "The labyrinth... it actually evolved, and it even directly transformed into a [Super Artifact] level? This..."
She subconsciously glanced at her disciple Raizo, who was also almost ruined... Could it be that Raizo later made some unknown modifications to the Golden Nightmare Labyrinth?
Is this disciple really going to surpass his master?
"Evolution?" Zhang Bolu frowned and said in a deep voice, "Madam Xinone, what will this maze become after it evolves?"
Lady Xinone chuckled softly, "I wouldn't know about that, since I withdrew from its research long ago, but one thing is certain..."
She glanced at Zhang Bolu with a mocking look, then casually tossed aside the sledgehammer in her hand. She spread her arms wide, her ten sharp finger blades gleaming coldly. "One thing is certain: you're going to die a horrible death... I am now ten times stronger than when I first appeared!"
This is also what Raizo once mentioned: the final form of the labyrinth, capable of amplifying nightmare-inducing creations tenfold—but only within the labyrinth itself!
The Pirate King instantly adopted a defensive stance—he could no longer match his opponent in terms of pure strength, and could only rely on his evolved divine magic.
"A silver-level divine spell, quite impressive." Lady [Shinone] suddenly chuckled. "Since you're so warlike, then let me show you a golden divine spell."
“Golden…divine magic…” Zhang Bolu’s gaze momentarily lost focus.
Lady Xinonne's body slowly rose, and twelve golden, intertwined, rotating rings instantly appeared around her.
—Golden [Eternal Divine Art] [Atom Master]!
Lady Xinone instantly raised a finger blade, pointing it at Zhang Bolu... and the Dragon Sparrow Ring in his hand!
A beam of light shot out!
Zhang Bolu instinctively raised his sword to block, but the beam of light disappeared instantly after entering the [Dragon Sparrow Ring]... Just as Zhang Bolu was filled with doubt, a mournful cry suddenly rang out in his mind!
That's the mournful cry of the [Dragon Sparrow Ring]!
Cracks were spreading rapidly across the blade of the [Dragon Sparrow Ring].
"My sword..."
"Don't be surprised, I just changed the structure of your knife to make it more brittle." Lady Xinone chuckled. "It won't withstand the force you're holding it, it'll break right away."
Zhang Bolu couldn't help but gasp. The strength of the [Dragon Sparrow Ring] was undeniable; it was the divine weapon that had accompanied him in his conquests... But at this moment, the feeling that it could shatter with a single squeeze was unmistakable!
The Pirate King slowly put away the Dragon Sparrow Ring with a gloomy expression—it didn't feel like a divine sword, but rather a piece of candied glass.
If this ability could also be applied to the body...
"What a terrifying divine art." Zhang Bolu narrowed his eyes, then sighed, and a blade of light slowly appeared in his palm.
"Quite clever, you immediately thought of condensing energy blades..." Lady [Shinone] chuckled, "However, even energy blades are essentially composed of 'atoms'... As long as they are 'atoms,' they are all under my control."
A dragon's roar suddenly rang out.
Suddenly, Ah Xiruo unleashed a Dragon Fist from afar!
It's the real Dragon Fist!
The miniature golden dragon roared straight toward Lady Shinone!
Lady Xinone shook her head. This was just someone who didn't believe in superstitions... However, she was used to it. After all, only she herself could understand how heaven-defying the divine magic she had comprehended was!
Otherwise, how could she have become the top magic creator of her time?
—【Atom Controller】, activate!
Another ray of light pierced directly into the [Dragon Fist].
Lady Xinonie then remained motionless as the Dragon Fist struck her—as expected, the dragon-shaped energy would disintegrate into a gentle breeze!
boom--! ! ! !
The Dragon Fist exploded directly on Lady Shinone's body... The shockwave was so powerful that even the dark gold walls of the Golden Nightmare Labyrinth were shaken several times!
This is not normal! Xi Ruo's punch is a punch with a power of +1 based on Testarossa!
Lady Xinone emerged from the blaze of the explosion in a disheveled state... her face filled with disbelief—her divine magic had failed?
"Could it be... a Quark-level..."
All that could be heard was Ah Xi Ruo's cold laugh, "What's with all this talk about atoms? As long as my control over [Qi] is stronger than yours, that's all that matters. All that fancy stuff!"
That's the rhetoric, but Ah Xi Ruo did indeed feel that when the [Dragon Fist] hit the opponent, it was indeed weakened by most of its power, otherwise it wouldn't have been so weak... It could only be considered a forced attempt to save face with a smoky but harmless attack.
But who is the true dragon of China? He can lose anything, but he can't lose his words!
……
Is this something that can be explained so simply?
Lady Xinonie looked at the true dragon of Shenzhou as if he were an idiot... Is this guy some kind of academic failure or mentally challenged?
However, the "quark" level is her own terminology; in other words, the other party's essential life level seems to be higher.
Could it be something we were born with...?
[Sunday] Essence?
