Preface 3: The soul returns to the broken abyss
The green flames gradually extinguished, and Vihanna completely disappeared in front of Duan Ming, leaving behind a pile of steel armor that had been corroded by evil energy and completely lost its luster.
As if pouring oil, the evil energy flames on his body became more and more vigorous, but Duan Ming did not feel any discomfort, losing the enemy, and his mood gradually stabilized. Calming down, he walked slowly towards the only light behind him.
The sky was full of large and small stars, and the void energy was like a river, constantly twisting forward in Duan Ming's sight, and thousands of strange planetary fragments and meteorites were drifting with the waves. Below, there was no trace of grass or trees, only patches of pitch-black wasteland and green rivers polluted by evil energy.
And where Duan Ming was at the moment was the window of a hideous starship, and in the distance hovered several technological products that also belonged to demons, powerful tools used to conquer the worlds.
Combined with Vihanna's soul, Duan Ming knew that this was Marton, the Broken Abyss, the former demon cage, and the location of the Demon Hunter Birth Mission in the game.
But now, Marton is completely occupied by the Burning Legion, unless he becomes one of them, under the continuous demonic attack, Duan Ming can only perish even if he has the ability to reach the sky!
There's only one way to get out of here!
Duan Ming turned his head and looked not far above the remnants of the Ereda Demon, an emerald green cone-shaped crystal suspended in the air, exuding an evil power that was incomparably familiar to him.
The Sagritan Keystone, the key to the worlds, including Azeroth!
As far as Vihanna can remember, the Burning Legion has discovered Azeroth and launched an attack on her. In other words, the Keystone contains the coordinates of Azeroth!
Thinking of this, Duan Ming suddenly became excited.
At one point, he was almost completely struck down by the despair of reality, but a game made him regain his confidence, and that world was called Azeroth!
Despite the persecution of disasters that could destroy the world, the inhabitants of Azeroth did not give up their struggle, turning the tide again and again, and being reborn again and again in desperate situations.
The orcs who were used by the Burning Legion finally found their survival goal, and the Eastern Kingdom was revived under the iron hooves of the undead Scourge, and the Dragon Sleep Coalition was united in the flames of destruction of Deathwing......
Subverting the established future again and again, Duan Ming was not only moved, but also saw hope, although he did not change the final outcome, he silently struggled with the disease, and admired the dawn of the next day in the surprised eyes of the doctor again and again.
Looking at the power of evil energy lingering in his fingertips, a thought suddenly appeared in Duan Ming's mind that made him extremely tempting. I can't change my fate, but perhaps, I can use this power to change the fate of Azeroth!
Punching his fist hard, the smile on the corner of Duan Ming's mouth looked extremely excited, although it looked very weird under the illumination of the emerald green light, but he could still feel his simple and innocent childish emotions.
Yes, naïve......
"Soul Eater, Your Majesty is asking you to repair the Keystone, not letting you destroy my spaceship, what are you doing......" Just as Duan Ming's heart was still surging, a huge black shadow gradually became clear at the entrance in front of him, and his emerald green eyes approached Duan Ming like two lanterns.
His massive body exuded a terrifying majesty, his sulfur-like skin seemed to burn at any moment, and his broad bat-like wings stretched out from his back, swaying as he moved forward, and his appearance gradually became clear.
Doom Guard!
"I haven't seen you, who are you?, where is the Soul Eater?" Although it was a spirit, the green flames wrapped in it made Belish mistakenly think that the other party was of the same kind, and there was only doubt in his eyes, but there was no hostility.
Until he saw the wreckage on the ground......
Rumble!
The huge hooves hit the ground so hard that it seemed that even the entire starship trembled, and with the landing point as the center, a circle of evil fire quickly expanded outward like a wave.
Duan Ming didn't have the slightest intention of dodging, and let the evil energy flames pass through his body, unharmed!
Although it is only a casual attack, as the commander and number one general of the spider queen, Belash's power is not far from the demon lord. And this kind of power is also irresistible to ordinary creatures.
"It seems that you do have some abilities. The tentative attack did not work, and Belish finally looked at the translucent soul in front of him: "But don't compare me to that bitch of Vehanna, outsider, show your identity!"
Devouring Vihanna's soul, although it was somewhat mutilated, Duan Ming had mastered the language of communication between demons, and at the same time, he also recognized each other.
Bel Ash, Tyranna's commander and master of the starship, is a formidable enemy mastered in the shadows.
As a former Titan Hound, the Doomward Guardian has a wealth of arcane knowledge, coupled with shadows and evil powers, he is more than a little stronger than Vihanna!
Of course, the taste of this soul must be more fascinating......
The corners of Duan Ming's mouth hooked up a faint smile, but now he didn't have the approachability of the past, hideous, terrifying, and it looked like another demon!
"Keystone shard, fool, put it down!" Seeing that the other party did not respond to his question, Belish became more and more impatient, and as he looked at the other party, he caught a glimpse of the familiar light in his right hand.
Suddenly, the Doom Guard's eyes flashed with surprise and panic, and the thought of Tyranna knowing the consequences of this turned to anger.
As Bel Ash's words fell, he reached out and grabbed it in the void, and the huge energy instantly gathered in his hand. The latter swung down fiercely, and a long whip composed of pitch-black energy was pulled out with all his might, galloping towards Duan Ming's position.
Rumble!
The Shadow Whip slammed into the ground, and the floor reinforced by evil energy could not resist the attack, as if it was covered with dense black cobwebs, and large pieces were shattered!
As for Duan Ming, he was already ready to dodge when the other party summoned the long whip. Vihanna not only left him with valuable combat knowledge, but also with his fighting habits about Bel Aish.
As a spirit body, Duan Ming's ability to move quickly and sensitively was swift and sensitive, and Bel Ash's attack seemed to be immense, shaking the starship with every blow, but it did not pose much of a threat to the other party.
Seeing the other party swimming in this space like a loach, Belish became more and more impatient, and whipped forward, and when Duan Ming dodged, he immediately stretched out his other hand and shook it in the air: "Cunning pig, give it to me, kneel down!"
The vast shadow power turned into a vortex in the hands of the Doom Guard, like a cannonball out of the chamber, bursting out towards the location where Duan Ming landed.
The shadow energy instantly hit the floor beneath his feet, and unexpectedly, it was like a small drop of water dripping into the sea, without setting off any waves.
Landing safely, Duan Ming was about to open his mouth to taunt, when the brown-green floor under his feet was suddenly swallowed up by endless darkness, and countless finger-thick tentacles burst out of it, tying him into zongzi in an instant.
Don't look at these tentacles as weak and weak, they have an incredible ability to adsorb, biting Duan Ming's body to death, no matter how much he struggles, he can't shake the shackles of the shadows. An irresistible force dragged his body, and the latter trembled, but did not give in as Belish thought.
"Fool! this is what will happen to challenge the great Bel Ash!" Raising his head to the sky, the Doomsday Guard waved the whip, only to see the latter shrink rapidly in the air, and soon turned into a giant sword the size of a door panel, of course, this size is nothing more than a one-handed sword for Bel Ash.
The power of the shadows faded away, replaced by blazing flames. The Blazing Sword emitted a rolling wave of heat, and even though it was far away, Duan Ming felt a scorching aura rushing towards him.
It seemed that the demons had the mentality of appreciating the enemy's fear, and Belish slowly approached Duan Ming, and the rumbling footsteps were like a hammer hitting the opponent's heart, piercing the enemy's psychological defense line again and again.
However, the latter was obviously not among them, seeing that the other party was acting like this, Duan Ming actually pouted impatiently!
"Ridiculous, are you demons' brains all paste?!"
As soon as the words fell, the souls surging with evil energy disappeared in the shadow prison, the temperature around them seemed to drop suddenly, and inexplicable wails and screams poured into Bel Ash's eardrums and soul like a tidal wave.
Don't forget, this is Vihanna's room, who is Vihanna? She's the Demon Lord's tech advisor and she's also a Soul Eater!
Almost most of the objects in the entire room were related to souls, and Vihanna was reluctant to use them, but Duan Ming was happy to be extravagant.
Soul Gems, Imprisoned Crystals, Soul Stealing Scythe......
The treasures that Vihanna regarded as treasures were held up by an unknown force, and under the rough pull of Duan Ming's soul, wisps of miserable white streamers rose from them, constantly circling and wailing in this room.
Soon, a mass of substantial soul power formed a white storm that spread throughout the dim space, and if you look closely, you will find that countless twisted spirits appear in it, and then quickly disappear, and the eerie and terrifying posture makes the scalp tingle.
Rumble!
Wielding the flaming sword, Belish slashed the resentful spirits that dared to attack him without being affected, and his hideous face was full of disdain: "Is this all you can do?"
"Do you think that if you devour the Soul Eater, you will be able to defeat me? I am Your Majesty's strongest executor, and Vihanna's power is not worth mentioning in front of me!"
"Fool, you have no way but to surrender!"
"The Shadow will be the final destination of these rotten souls!"
Once again, using the flames to devour the incoming spirits, Belish no longer entangled with them, and the wings behind him swung outwards fiercely, and a raging storm of flames instantly emptied the surrounding space.
Then, with his left hand held high, a large area of pitch-black power that was completely opposite to the color of the air was summoned, and under the control of the Doom Guard, it turned into a vortex of shadows that was constantly twisting and collapsing.
The powerful gravitational pull easily absorbed the nearby spirits, and the pitch-black vortex expanded more and more, and seeing that the Shadow Storm was about to banish all the nearby spirits, a green streamer silently appeared behind Bel Ash.
"It's over, demon!"
"Ah——!h
The shadow storm in his hand burst instantly, and the smug look on his face vanished, replaced by endless anger and fear, and green lines that quickly crawled all over his body.
"This power, no! it can't be! it is, Sagra ......"
Before Bel Ash could finish speaking, the dazzling green light completely flooded his body. From the outside, Vihanna's room seemed to be a green sun, and its brilliant emerald green light was like a bright light in the night, attracting the attention of many demons.
The vast chaotic power was constantly swirling and twisting on Duan Ming's body, and he was suddenly infused with such powerful energy, the latter suddenly felt a tearing pain coming from all over his body.
Prompted by the forces around him, the spirit slowly climbed upward, like a balloon that was constantly inflating, Duan Ming gradually couldn't bear the growing swelling feeling, as if it was about to explode in the next moment.
"Ah——!h
The scream that soared into the sky seemed to ignite the fuse, and the chaotic energy erupted into a terrifying roar, and the torrent of energy like a wave quickly spread into the distance.
