Chapter Eighty-Seven: Trade-offs (Revised)

"The supreme gift."

Henig held up the Divine Crystal, which still reflected a brilliant light even in a dark sky without sunlight.

A burst of black fire burned, and the crystals became more dazzling. Henig looked at it for a moment, then gently put it in his mouth. The swan-like neck twitched slightly, and her pale pink tongue swept over the corners of her lips, and her expression was happy with some regret, as if she was savoring the last bottle of wine.

"I feel a surge of power...... "Hernig's pretty face swelled up with a crimson as if he felt pain, curled up with his hands on his chest, and let out a suppressed moan from his mouth. Black blood continued to pour into her body from Su Qin's body, so much so that layers of black mist shrouded her surroundings, mixed with flickering red light. The drastic change in power caused Heenig's body to gradually become ethereal, leaving only a trembling two-handed sword in place.

Supported by millions of souls, the Heenig fought fiercely with the last remaining fragments of consciousness in the divinity. In this pure contest of wills, the winner will surely swallow all of the loser. If Hernig emerges victorious, she will be able to complete her missing soul and take a crucial step towards DeathScythe, the highest form of the enchanted weapon. If she fails, regaining the Chaos Divinity of Dependence will set off a new round of turmoil.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, a pale hand suddenly grasped the hilt of the magic sword. Su Qin, who was originally in a coma, was now looking at the magic sword in his hand with an indifferent face, and the battle that had taken place before had caused him extremely serious trauma. So much so that half-broken ribs could be seen on his flank, and the broken bones that pierced the flesh were constantly tearing the wounds, and the blood flowing from them soaked the entire coat.

Excessive blood loss and constant severe pain made Su Qin's face like gold paper, looking three points like a human and seven points like a ghost, even so, he still relied on his iron will to turn his soul fluctuations into soul power and mercilessly punched into Henig's body. The blue lightning continued to sink into the sword's body, and the enemy on the back of the abdomen caused the Henig to retreat in the confrontation with the Divine.

"Stop! Don't you know the consequences of doing so? Henig gritted his teeth and held on to defend himself against attacks from both sides.

"I just know there's never been a better time to get rid of you." Although he said this, Su Qin did not further increase the intensity of his attack, which gave Heenig a glimmer of hope.

[Sure enough, no one can resist the temptation of power, maybe he just wants to gain some initiative. However, such superficial concessions will not affect the final implementation of the plan at all. Heenig made a secret decision in his mind, but he still showed a natural panic on the surface.

"Don't you think it's a pity? Divinity can only come from powerful beings above the lord level, and it is far beyond the supreme supreme being of ordinary Chaos Knights who can truly dominate all Chaos Lords. Even in the infinite space, it is more than six stars, and it is difficult for us to look up to the big people now. If I can devour and transform this seemingly inconspicuous trace of divinity, I will definitely be able to increase my strength to hundreds of times the current realm. At that point, you only need to wave your hand to wipe out a beast like that. ”

"But what does that have to do with me?" Bending down to approach the crystal transparent body of the magic sword, Su Qin narrowed his eyes and saw that drops of cold sweat began to roll down from Henig's forehead.

"No matter how powerful it is, if it can't be used by me, it's just another burden after all. I don't want to go through all the trouble of making a wedding dress for someone else. ”

"Have you forgotten that there are six million innocent souls in there? If I'm devoured, they won't be able to escape! As expected, Heenig was sure. However, on the surface, she pretended to be really threatened, and instead used the six million souls that she had devoured and had not yet digested as a bargaining chip to threaten Su Qin in turn.

"Oh? Do you think I'm going to be the kind of person who sacrifices myself for others? Although Su Qin pretended to say this coldly, Henig snorted lightly and shook his head.

"No one knows yourself better than you." A fox-like sly smile appeared on Henig's delicate and flower-like face, however, she didn't know that Su Qin was relieved in her heart after hearing these words. He pretended to regret and withdrew his soul power, and instead sent his own soul fluctuations into the demon sword's body. The soul fluctuations were transmitted back and forth between Henig, who was a magic weapon, and Su Qin, who was a craftsman, and continued to strengthen, and finally evolved into an incredible strength of power that poured into the demon sword's body.

"Free those souls, and I'll help you deal with that shred of divinity." With the advantage that the fisherman temporarily gained after making a profit, he held the power of soul resonance tightly in his own hands.

"Deal."

Feeling the power of his soul that was enough to severely damage himself, Heenig nodded his head in agreement without hesitation. In fact, no matter how many ordinary souls there are, they are fundamentally incomparable to divinity. The absolute gap in quality cannot be bridged by quantity. Therefore, even if she lost these ignorant and ignorant ordinary souls, as long as she completely devoured this wisp of divinity, and combined with the ghost and god eggs she had obtained from the souls of sinners who had deviated from the orbit of human beings, she still had a great deal of confidence to launch an attack on a higher realm.

With the release of the restraints, a halo appeared on the pale gray translucent sword of the magic sword, and millions of souls escaped from it as dots of fluorescence, and these cleansed souls gradually flew into the sky along the light, and the dark magic that enveloped most of Europe in the sky had begun to gradually dissipate after Gregory was defeated, so these rays of light easily penetrated the dark clouds, and on the other side of the clouds, through the soul vision, a door composed entirely of light could be seen slowly rotating to absorb all the souls.

This is the river of the soul and the fountain of life that circulates between all things in the world, and she flows quietly between the material universe and the energy universe, taking on the important responsibility of purifying the soul and making it reincarnate alternately. Seeing this magnificent scene, Su Qin felt that his soul was slowly becoming quiet and peaceful. In the silent blessing, he seemed to feel something, and deliberately recalled it without finding any intuitive changes.

Sensing that Henig was already planning to grind the last trace of will in the divinity, Su Qin abruptly withdrew the power of soul resonance and let the divine crystallization launch a final counterattack. This unexpected attack was entirely borne by Henig herself, so much so that she did not have time to summon all her mental strength to resist the opponent's near-death blow. Traumatized, Heenig's spirit fell to the ground with a blank eye. With a crisp cracking sound, the broad blade of the magic sword, which originally resembled a two-handed sword, quickly cracked and shattered, leaving only a slender black sword body like a one-handed stabbing sword.

[This is just the beginning] Before it shattered, the magic sword suddenly burst out with a stream ......of black blood that turned into a blood needle and pierced into Gregory's body, killing and robbing him of his powerful soul. Subsequently, for the first time, Heenig's voice completely disappeared from Su Qin's mind.

But feeling that the black blood in his body was unwilling to roll lonely, Su Qin helplessly found that the matter did not end there. The battle between the Rebel Blade and the Sword Bearer is only a temporary end. As time passes, the Henig, who has devoured divinity and the eggs of various ghosts and gods, is bound to become a more difficult existence than ever.

"Well, it's time to come back."

Su Qin's thin figure slowly disappeared into the light, and Retia, who was piloting the fighter plane in the distance, suddenly felt a sense of sadness.

As the dark clouds that envelop the sky gradually dissipate, a world full of sorrow after decades of war finally brings a glimmer of peace.
