Chapter 315

That bundle of consciousness surged over!

Then.

"Boom!"

Princess Luoying seemed to hear the sound of fire igniting.

No, she didn't hear this sound with her ears!

It was more like she heard it from within her soul!

"Aaah, what is this!"

That cold, emotionless consciousness, devoid of any feeling, let out a terrified cry!

Right after, black flames appeared before Princess Luoying's eyes!

Flames can be black?

These black flames seemed to have no temperature at all—even though the flames had already touched her skin, her skin felt nothing!

As if the flames were merely an illusion, nonexistent!

"The pendant!"

Princess Luoying suddenly realized what these black flames were!

It was the pendant given to her by the fox woman Sister Qing Ling!

The pendant was very small—without the chain, the pendant itself was only the size of a fingernail.

After receiving it, Princess Luoying had been curious about what was inside the pendant.

Inside was an extremely tiny flame of Abyssal Demon Fire.

But Sister Qing Ling never told her it was Abyssal Demon Fire; she only said it was a divine blessing.

Inside the pendant, the Abyssal Demon Fire did not burn in a fixed shape; the flame flickered occasionally, shaped by unseen winds.

Yes, although Abyssal Demon Fire burned on the soul level, it could still be influenced by certain environments—the Old Lion King had once used a lion's roar to push back Dreaming's released Abyssal Demon Fire!

At the time, Princess Luoying had found it strange, wondering if it might be fire?

But she had never heard of black flames before.

Now, at last, she understood!

Inside the pendant, it truly was black flame!

Though it looked like only a tiny flicker, when it burned fiercely, it was terrifying.

Princess Luoying's entire body was surrounded by black flames.

The black flames did not harm her.

Not even her clothes were burned.

Then, the Holy Spirit slammed straight into the black flames!

Then, the Holy Spirit screamed!

Because as it collided, the black flames seemed to find an outlet for energy, surging violently upward in an instant!

In less than half a second, the black flames completely engulfed the Holy Spirit, burning furiously!

"Aaaah~~~~ What is this, what is this~~~"

The Holy Spirit's voice was filled with terror, agony, and bewilderment.

"So it can be afraid too!"

Hearing the Holy Spirit's shriek, Princess Luoying couldn't help thinking.

When the Holy Spirit first appeared, how majestic it had been.

The aura it exuded seemed to look down upon all living things like a god!

Yet beneath the burning of the black flames, it too was terrified, too afraid—no different from the lifeforms it had once despised.

"Save me, save me!"

The Holy Spirit cried out in panic!

At the end of the passage, the Sixth-Rank Temple Knight had been stunned into silence!

He simply could not imagine why a Holy Spirit From the Heavenly Realm would be burned like this by black flames!

Holy Spirits originate from the gods' divine realms, varying in strength.

But even the weakest Holy Spirit was far stronger than him, a Sixth-Rank Temple Knight.

Yet this Holy Spirit From the Heavenly Realm was now screaming in agony!

Yet faced with the Holy Spirit's cries for help, the Sixth-Rank Temple Knight could not move a single step.

He was afraid!

Black flames—he had never seen or heard of such a thing!

Without thinking, he knew such flames must come from the most evil depths of the Abyss!

As a Sixth-Rank Temple Knight, he was not especially afraid of beings from the Upper Layer of the Abyss.

Even Abyssal Lords, if they dared come to the Continent of the Gods, could not withstand the slash of his greatsword!

But this strange black flame had burned the Holy Spirit to this state—if he went near, it would be no different from walking into death.

His faith in the gods was indeed firm.

But this Holy Spirit was not a god.

Clearly, his own life mattered more!

Behind him were several Temple Knights slightly weaker in strength.

But none of these Temple Knights dared step forward either!

"Save me!"

The holy spirit was still calling for help!

Inside the room, Princess Luoying's "Aunt" was also startled by this sudden turn of events.

"Abyss Demon Flame!"

Princess Luoying's "Aunt" recognized the Abyss Demon Flame!

Clearly, the holy spirit on her aunt's body was far more powerful than this newly descended holy spirit, and her knowledge was far broader as well!

"Save me!"

That newly descended holy spirit was being burned smaller and smaller, weaker and weaker.

Princess Luoying's "Aunt" stretched out her hand, and a magic glowing with Bai Guang was hurled by her toward the Abyss Demon Flame!

"Boom—!"

But the Abyss Demon Flame not only failed to be extinguished, it instead burned even more ferociously, as if it had been given fuel!

Princess Luoying's "Aunt" furrowed her brow.

She made no further move, standing there, watching the outside coldly.

She actually let the Abyss Demon Flame burn that newly descended holy spirit to nothing.

That holy spirit's screams grew smaller and smaller, until they vanished completely — it had already been utterly burned to nothing by the Abyss Demon Flame!

And the Abyss Demon Flame finally exhausted all its energy and went out!

"You actually have a deal with the Abyss Demon God. Your Xiling Kingdom's royal family is due for a change."

Princess Luoying's "Aunt" said coldly.

Clearly, the appearance of the Abyss Demon Flame made her think Princess Luoying had obtained it through a deal with the Abyss Demon God.

And at this moment, Princess Luoying, who had made no move all this while, suddenly raised her head, and a long-prepared magic was sent forth by her.

In the blink of an eye, her "Aunt" was bound by vine after vine.

What Princess Luoying practiced was unmistakably nature-aligned magic!

"Ningcui, now."

Princess Luoying said.

Ningcui moved very fast, already rushing over, her slender sword pressed against the chin of Princess Luoying's "Aunt" — that is, the Eldest Princess of the Xiling Kingdom.

"Have them all leave, or I'll kill you."

Ningcui said coldly.

"Interesting."

The holy spirit attached to the Eldest Princess laughed lightly: "Go ahead and kill me."

Ningcui faltered upon hearing this.

This holy spirit was attached to the Eldest Princess — how could she kill it?
