68. Torture the soul, the proposal of eternal life (I)
The figure of Lord Tomad Jonson rushed up dozens of steps like a meteor, and the brilliant blade of Excalibur pointed directly at Levi Stern's neck, and the dazzling light surrounded his body like a raging flame, and the scorching breath that made people breathe rushed towards him, as if the Abyss Demon Domain had cracked a terrifying crack here.
The void shattered beside Levi Ston and then pierced into his skin like thousands of burning steel nails, and the young regent endured the pain to the bone, and the knight's sword slowly raised, a silver-white flame of fighting aura bloomed on the blade. He had done his best, but under the terrifying aura of Lord Blindeye, the flame of light flickered and flickered, as if it could be torn off the blade of the sword at any moment.
At the moment when Excalibur's brilliant sword light was about to end, a thin and powerful palm grabbed Levi Stun's arm, and the voice of the shadow assassin Arranth Kate sounded in his ears, which was dull and hoarse due to his tenseness.
"Young Master Levi...... Run. ”
A violent thrust pushed Levi's body backwards, and the Shadow Assassin's body twisted and wound around Excalibur's brilliant blade like a black viper with its head raised. The venomous dagger brought two dark green lights at his side, and the cold eyes looked like the green eyes of a poisonous snake.
Levi staggered a few steps, thrust his knight's sword into the ground, and then stood on his feet. The young Lord Regent initially tried to rush back to fight alongside the Shadow Assassins, but was stopped by blood-red eyes that harbored deep fear and anger.
"Run, run!" the Shadow Assassin hissed, the Venomed Twin Daggers stabbing at Lord Blindeye's defenses from top to bottom, a sonorous metallic resonance that was barely intelligible.
Levi only hesitated for a breath interval, then turned around and ran briskly in the direction of the bronze gate, with the blessing of the sacrificial fighting spirit, he jumped up several steps with each step, and his movements were as fast as a ball of light and shadow.
A vicious curse came out of Tomad Yangsen's mouth, and the Excalibur Brilliant suddenly flashed with a brilliant sword light that could not be forced, and the two bits of dark green light were suddenly scattered with a high, sharp voice, and countless fragments flew around, as if a rain of light as sharp as a needle bloomed in the dark sea of stars.
Arranth Kate let out a low groan, shattered not only by the pair of poisoned daggers that reached the level of a high-level magic weapon, but also by the ten fingers of his hands, and purple-red blood poured out from under the broken rune bandages, staining his arms below his elbows in the blink of an eye. Several fragments of daggers were inserted into his body, one of which happened to pierce his right eye, almost deep into his skull.
It would have been easy to continue the hunt for Arranth Kate, who was already mortally wounded, but Lord Blindeye was not focused on the Shadow Assassin, his real target was Levi Ston. The golden eyes lifted, quickly catching the back of the young regent who was about to run through the bronze gate, the corners of Tomad Yangsen's mouth outlined a mocking arc, the colorless light suddenly rose, and the whole body rushed forward.
Thomas Youngson was confident that he could catch up with Levi Ston before he could escape through the bronze gates, but the next moment, his right foot was dragged down by a force that could not be ignored, leaving him stunned. For a moment, the Shadow Assassin's entanglement seemed to hold him in place, but the stalemate was less than a tenth of a heartbeat, and with a tooth-aching rattle, Lord Blindeye kicked Arrans Kate's head back violently, blood and broken bones gushing out of his mouth like a fountain.
Even after another blow, Arrans Kate didn't let go of his hands until Lord Blindeye severed his wrists with Excalibur and then slit his chest. The Shadow Assassin's life was not long, but it was enough for Levi Ston to rush to the bronze door leading to the Temple of God, and then dodge into it.
Seeing the bronze gate slowly close with a heavy grinding sound, a layer of blood light suddenly bloomed in Tomad Yangsen's golden eyes. "Stop!" his eyes were fixed on the bronze door, and the sound in his throat was incomparably hollow, echoing through the sea of stars like a thunderbolt. "In the name of I, Tomad Yangsen!"
The sound poured into his ears like a hammer, and Levi Ston was suddenly stunned as he was closing the bronze door, and he felt a wave of dizziness, the power rushing from his arm, and the intense fear made every nerve scream and moan. "Move, move, move, my hand, move!" the young regent felt himself cry with all his might, but in reality it was only a grunt in his throat.
When the bronze gate stopped advancing, Tomad Yangsen's face showed a mixture of ecstasy and anger, because the transcendent divine power he had just used had already depleted his power again, and he had become weaker. A trace of fishy sweetness crept up his throat, and at the same time, the sound of countless curses and cries of unjust souls sounded in his ears, and in the depths of his chest, the divine fire that had been ignited by the blood sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of souls had become weaker, and even swayed like a candle in the wind.
Tomad Yangsen gritted his teeth angrily, and more faith power rose from the Alchemy Divine Domain and injected it into the divine fire, making it burn again. "Nothing can stand in my way, not even you, Dish Friedrich!" he snarled at the dark purple lightning that appeared behind him, and then waved his left hand, which was blocked as if it had hit an invisible wall.
Mr. Dust's figure revealed from the lightning, his ornate and majestic Grand Magister's robes covered in scorch marks and tears, but his expression showed no embarrassment. "Give up, Thomad Youngson, your ambition is impossible. The old magician opened his mouth word by word, and the old man's voice contained some kind of majesty and power, "The power of faith obtained by relying on the bloody ritual contains too many impurities, although you have barely ignited the divine fire, you have also turned it into filthy, and it is not even as pure as the divine fire of the abyss great monarch Amur Hidras. ”
"So what?" Lord Blind-Eyed's angry face turned into a mocking sneer, he thrust the Excalibur at his feet, stretched out his hands, and looked at the colorless flames of light rising from his palms, "Now I have become an immortal god, and you are just a wisp of remnant soul in a rotten body, if the price of upholding justice and light is so miserable, then it is no wonder that materialism is rampant in this world, and evil and darkness have the absolute upper hand!"
Mr. Dish shook his head slowly, his movements looking very sad, "Immortal? Thomad, is this what you call immortal?" The old magician raised his arm, and a faint white light fell from the sky with this gesture, enveloping Lord Blindeye's body.
Thomas Yangsen deliberately showed an arrogant expression, but he couldn't help but take half a step back, wrapping the colorless divine fire around his body, forming an indestructible protection. However, the white light did not bring any attack, but only shone on Lord Blindeye's body like a real ray of sunshine.
"Your tricks are getting weirder, old Dich. "Don't you think the real darkness will be dispelled by this light?"
"It's always good for an old man to be brighter. Mr. Dish spread his hands, "Thomad, I am saddened to see that your eyes have been blinded by pride and arrogance, and this magic is not a light spell, but a metamorphosis of true vision. Now can you see what that divine fire really looks like after stripping away the gorgeous appearance?"
Lord Blindeye snorted coldly, and was about to continue to speak to refute, when the colorless light burning in his palm suddenly became cloudy, and a faint trace of blood light swayed and lingered in the flames, and it seemed that he was still screaming piercing!
"Old Dic, what are you doing? Do you think that this little illusion can blind the eyes of the gods?"
"Thomad Jonson, haven't you seen clearly what is blinding you?" Mr. Dust's tone suddenly became stern, and the right hand behind his back made a series of secret gestures, "Those are the souls of innocent people who died tragically in the bloody ritual, they were forcibly refined into the power of faith by the evil alchemy ritual, but the curse and despair before death cannot be removed by any means, and together with the power of faith, it enters the core of the divine fire, making it dirty!"
"You're lying!" roared through gritted teeth, "you don't know what a divine fire is, let alone the true meaning of the bloody ritual, because your brain has long been filled with stupid kindness, and you don't understand the power of darkness at all!"
"No, you're wrong. Mr. Dish sighed, "I understand......"
The Star Iron Greatsword appeared above Lord Blindeye without warning, and then slashed down with a roar, a trace of surprise flashed in Tomad Yangsen's eyes, Excalibur Brilliant jumped off the ground, and blocked upwards at lightning speed, the position of the two swords was only a few centimeters above his head, and countless sparks burst out!
