Chapter 224: The Goddess Returns
Lin Xuan forced his actions to pull his body out of the ruins with mental power. At this point, his entire body was in a state of distortion. There is a huge depression in the chest. The left leg and left hand are also distorted. There were also more than a dozen extremely deep wounds all over the body. If it were a normal person, I would have died long ago without this injury, I don't know how many times.
In the wounds on Lin Xuan's body, a crimson light flickered and swam from time to time. It was Steppenwolf's divine power that was constantly destroying Lin Xuan's body structure. His wounds kept healing, then they were torn again, and then they were healing, they were tearing, and the physical pain alone made Lin Xuan feel painful.
Not far away, Superman, Aquaman, and Lena were once again fighting Steppenwolf. But without a main output, all they can do is contain as much as possible. Lin Xuan didn't continue to pay attention to the battlefield over there. I saw him concentrate and enter a meditative state.
The blood from his wound began to slowly collect in his chest. Then it flows continuously according to a specific trajectory. Finally, an eerie blood-red pattern was formed on the chest. The big battle was imminent, and Lin Xuan naturally didn't have time to slowly deal with the injuries on his body. So she had to choose only one emergency treatment.
Because Steppenwolf's divine power was there, Lin Xuan's injuries could not be improved. Therefore, the top priority is to first deal with the external divine power that is raging in the body. Lin Xuan moved his hands with difficulty, forming a complex gesture on his chest. At the same time, he began to use some strange language and recite obscure incantations.
A dark magic derived from the Black Witch. Originally, it was used by the Black Witch to seal away power borrowed from demons or other underworlds. But now Lin Xuan tried to use this method to temporarily seal the Steppenwolf's divine power. His own demigod blood was enough to replace the blood sacrifice that was originally needed. A large amount of life force, coupled with the blessing of the Supreme Ring, forcibly sealed Steppenwolf's ownerless divine power.
With Lin Xuan's spell, the pattern on his chest seemed to come alive and began to flow continuously. At the same time, the external divine power in the body also began to be attracted by some kind of attraction, and it continued to converge to the chest.
At this time, if you use your spiritual power to perceive Lin Xuan's body. It can be found that a red light is slowly gathering together under some invisible force. And around it, countless blood-red threads were constantly generating, and more and more, denser and denser. A blood-colored cocoon was forming, enveloping the crimson glow in it.
The light seemed to realize something, and began to fight hard. For a while, two different forces began to collide in Lin Xuan's body. Lin Xuan's entire chest continued to rise and fall, and the huge energy seemed to be about to tear him to pieces in the next second. Lin Xuan's right hand had even grasped a piece of blue Atlantis crystal. Once you can't control it, just crush it.
At this time, the main battlefield has completely fallen into a disadvantage. Even if Superman, Aquaman, and Lena join forces, they will no longer be able to compete with Steppenwolf. The Flash tries to sneak up on it using his super speed. But the overflowing energy wave from Steppenwolf's body made it impossible for him to get close at all.
Steppenwolf once again burst out of his divine power and neutralized the trio. And in his hand, I don't know when a crimson ball of energy has appeared.
"Look at the world you're desperately guarding, it's so weak and ugly. These ant-like creatures are so incompetent. Let them be reduced to ashes before your eyes. ”
Steppenwolf leaps into the air, in mid-air. A pillar of crimson light flew directly towards the metropolis. At that speed, even Superman can't go back to the sky.
However, the moment the pillar of light landed, Steppenwolf frowned. Because at the last moment, a sturdy figure fell in front of the pillar of light and struck the blow. You must know that this time, Steppenwolf is going all out, and once it actually hits, the entire metropolis will be reduced to ashes. This level of energy was even more powerful than the blow that Lin Xuan had just received, but the person who came still caught the blow steadily.
In Steppenwolf's view, a pair of white arms wearing silver bracers crossed in front of him, firmly blocking the blow. And the silver bracers unleashed a peculiar stance that neutralized most of the divine power. The effects of the explosion were confined to a range of about 100 meters.
Far away in Washington, through various drones, satellites, and watching the live broadcast, the US high-level officials finally breathed a sigh of relief. If the Metropolis was really destroyed by the blow just now. It is estimated that at least 30% of the people in the conference room will take the blame for resigning. The rest will not be any better, facing all kinds of accountability, as well as attacks from competitors. A political career is almost impossible to go any further. And they finally see the savior of Central City.
Gold and red armor, standard sword and shield dual-wielding. With a tall posture and a slightly resolute face. The person who came was none other than Wonder Woman, Diana, who had not been seen for a long time. At this time, if there is a BGM sound, it may be more perfect.
"It's a rare old god to be in bondage. I thought you were hiding at the edge of the universe and shivering? ”
"I gave up on humans, but I ended up choosing to be on their side. They may be ruthless, weak, and cruel. But as long as there is one person in this world worthy of my protection, then I will fight to the end. ”
When this line comes out of anyone's mouth, it looks like an incomparably secondary two. But in the case of Diana, there is a special sense of solemnity. There was even an invisible will in the dark that responded to Diana's words in some way. Diana also seemed to sense something, and the expression on her face became more resolute. Lin Xuan, who was not far away, also felt a trace of throbbing, but he didn't look into it at a critical moment.
Diana pulled out the Vulcan sword on her back and rushed straight forward. That's how her fighting style comes from. And the sword of the Vulcan in her hand also made Steppenwolf feel jealous. With Diana on board, the battle has once again become a stalemate. Steppenwolf has the ability to knock down anyone. But the new gods of the Apocalypse have a super weakness. None of them can fly. Yes, the gods who are so powerful to them do not have the ability to fly, and can only use the equipment on their bodies to assist. And the flying equipment on Steppenwolf's body was destroyed by Lin Xuan's dissociation technique in the wine glass. In this way, Da Chao has the upper hand and constantly holds back in the air. Aquaman, on the other hand, always wraps himself in the seawater to buffer Steppenwolf's attacks. Wounded several times, but recovered quickly in seawater. As for Lena, this is a real god. Even if Steppenwolf was a notch higher than him, it would be difficult to inflict fatal injuries on it for a while.
However, Steppenwolf was pinned down on this side, while the battlefield on the other side began to lose ground. The demon army has unlimited soldiers, and the battlefield has begun to spread to the city. The human side is being gradually suppressed.
