Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Black Sword
Helis realized when Liu Ye was still asleep, and a "thing" with a powerful aura landed on this island with her.
Heris originally planned to check it out, but Liu Yeming was still in a coma at that time, and Heris was afraid that once there was a conflict, she might not be able to protect Liu Yeming who was in a coma.
So after Liu Yeming and Bai left, Heris immediately prepared to find out.
Heris chased the breath to the center of the island.
A deep tunnel appears on the side hill of the island in the center.
Heris touched the walls of the tunnel.
The walls of the tunnel are very flat, there is not a trace of temperature, there is no dust in the tunnel, and there are no stone chips on the ground.
This shows that the entire tunnel was not melted out of energy, but should have been directly annihilated by the destructive force.
Heris solemnized.
It must not be a simple "thing" to be able to do this.
Heris cautiously made her way deeper into the tunnel.
The closer she got to the tunnel, the more Heris could feel the oppression of that "thing", but at the same time, the more she was like this, the more she was attracted to this thing.
It was a dangerous feeling, she had never thought that something would appeal to her more than her desire for power, and Helis couldn't estimate how powerful it really was.
That power oppressed Heris more than any she had ever felt, a power unlike anything Heris had ever felt.
The sheer power of destruction made Heris's hairs stand on end.
Excited.
Fearful.
Excited.
The moment of facing life and death made Heris nostalgic, the fear of facing death made Heris excited, and the feeling of insignificance under absolute power made Heris's whole body tremble.
Before seeing what it was, Heris felt like this, and Heris couldn't imagine what it was.
Heris licked her lips, which were dry from excitement, and couldn't help but speed herself up.
She couldn't wait to see that "thing".
The tunnel was long, but at Heris's speed, it only took a moment to reach the end of the tunnel.
And Helis also saw the thing at the end that scared Heris.
A jet-black broadsword.
The great sword, which was darker than the night, floated at the end of the tunnel with a dark halo, and there was a dead silence around it, there was nothing, no sound, it felt like nothing was there, there was no light here, and the reason why Heris was able to see the sword was simply because the sword was even darker than this darkness.
The sword body like the abyssal void continued to exude coercion, and the cold coercion made even Heris feel breathless.
"It's amazing, just a sword has such power, it's hard to imagine who forged this sword, no, maybe not at all." Helis sighed as she looked at the black greatsword.
As if sensing Heris, the jet-black sword trembled violently.
The surroundings shook with the pitch-black sword.
The ground began to crack, and the atmosphere began to shake.
Heris looked at the greatsword with a feeling that something was wrong.
Suddenly, the jet-black greatsword swung in the direction of Helis.
Heris subconsciously dodged sideways.
In an instant, the entire island was cut in half by a huge force, and then the island that was cut in half suddenly exploded.
Helis burst out of the island of destruction and flew in mid-air.
"Whew." Heris gasped and covered her left arm with her right hand.
Blood flowed from his left arm.
Before Helis could react, the pitch-black sword slashed through the smoke and stabbed towards Heris, who hurriedly dodged away.
But even if Helis dodged, there was still an extra blood mark on her cheek.
"Make no mistake, this is too sharp." Helis looked at the jet-black sword, her face full of disbelief.
Just after the first meeting, Heris was injured.
If it weren't for Helis hiding quickly, Helis's arm would have been cut off directly.
The jet-black greatsword slashed straight down again.
Helis stretched out her hand, and a defensive shield stood up in front of her.
The jet-black sword slashed at the shield that Helis had erected, severing the shield that Helis had unfolded without hindrance, and stabbing Helis in the shoulder.
"Woo!" Heris screamed and gritted her teeth and threw a punch that blasted the greatsword away.
Heris clutched the slashed spot and jumped away.
The jet-black greatsword that was blasted away by Heris flew out of a hundred meters before stopping, and after stopping, the jet-black greatsword bent again and stabbed towards Heris.
Seeing the black sword stabbing at her again, Heris hurriedly took out a fairy bean from her pocket and stuffed it into her mouth, swallowing it directly without even chewing it.
After swallowing the fairy bean, the wounds on Heris's body healed immediately.
Recovering from her injuries, Helis summoned her flying sword, then clenched her hands and roared at the jet-black greatsword.
The sword in Helis's hand clashed with the pitch-black greatsword, and only a "click" was heard, and the flying sword in Helis's hand broke in two.
Not only that, but the jet-black greatsword cut off Heris's flying sword and still slashed towards Heris with unabated momentum.
Heris hurriedly stepped back, and the black sword cut through Heris's clothes, leaving a scar on Heris's chest.
"Hmm." Heris snorted and gritted her teeth, and the condensed qi in her hand slammed into the jet-black greatsword, blasting the jet-black greatsword into the sea.
The jet-black sword broke through the sea and stabbed at Helis again.
Looking at the jet-black sword, Heris gritted her teeth.
"Damn, come on, I don't believe it, I can't cure you?" Helis roared and squeezed all her breath.
Knowing that her protective shield could not stop the attack of the jet-black greatsword, Heris directly gathered the qi in her whole body and blasted a shockwave towards the black greatsword.
"Destroy the Sky Cannon!" A huge pillar of light slammed down on the jet-black greatsword, and the scorching heat boiled the air around it.
The pitch-black greatsword did not change its attack in the face of the incoming shock wave, and still stabbed straight at it.
When the shockwave and the black greatsword were handed over, there was no explosion, and the black greatsword directly cut the shockwave in half.
"How is that possible?" Heris's eyes widened, and then in an instant, the black sword had come to the front, piercing Heris's heart under Heris's terrified gaze.
Heris stared in shock at the black sword plunged into her chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell from the sky into the sea.
Am I just dead? Died at the hands of a sword? I'm really unwilling.
These were Heris's last thoughts before she lost consciousness.
