Chapter 1030: Vali Appears

"Then it is time to end this!"

Watching Kokabiel's state, Lingyun shook his head slightly, then slowly raised the long sword in his hand, and a powerful force surged out from the long sword.

Just as the long sword in Lingyun's hand was about to fall toward Kokabiel, a streak of light suddenly flashed from the horizon and then slammed fiercely toward Lingyun.

Seeing this scene, Lingyun faintly raised his hand, and terrifying power gathered continuously in his hand, finally transforming into a light bullet that blasted fiercely toward the direction of that streak of light.

A violent roar exploded in mid-air, and the massive meteor was directly blocked in mid-air by the light bullet released by Lingyun. A terrifying shockwave expanded outward in a ring, instantly whipping up violent gusts and air currents, accompanied by dazzling firelight. As the waves of light spewed wantonly, they directly submerged Tokisaki Kurumi and her group.

"Ha, it seems a spoiler has appeared!" Lingyun waved his hand casually, and a Light Blade directly tore through the turbulent air currents.

And that meteor had already torn through the light bullet released by Lingyun in a very short time, slamming fiercely toward Lingyun.

Lingyun stretched his left hand forward and pressed directly onto the meteor. The powerful impact acted upon Lingyun, causing cracks to appear on the ground beneath his feet. Kokabiel, who was under Lingyun's feet, could not help but let out a muffled groan, was directly blown away by the massive shockwave, and crashed heavily onto the ground.

Lingyun's gaze turned toward the meteor; the true form of the meteor was a human figure. The figure was covered from head to toe in pure white full-body armor, with blue jewels embedded everywhere in the armor, and even the face was covered beneath the armor. Behind the armor, there was a pair of extended, ghostly blue light wings.

Powerful force continuously spewed out from the figure's body, seemingly wanting to blow Lingyun away. But Lingyun remained as steady as Mount Tai, firmly resisting the figure's impact.

"Divide——"

A low voice sounded from the jewels on the figure's armor; the light on Lingyun's body flickered slightly, but then did not show the slightest change.

"Heh, petty tricks!"

Lingyun chuckled, and terrifying power was released from his palm; the violent sound of an explosion resounded throughout the entire battlefield, and a massive pillar of light suddenly shot into the sky.

Following the expansion of the pillar of light, massive and hideous scars instantly appeared on the ground, gravel rolled continuously under the blowing of the violent wind, and a white light shadow was sent flying by the impact, crashing heavily against the Light Wall that Lingyun had set up in this place.

The figure that crashed into the Light Wall quickly climbed up from the ground and shook his body slightly; it was very clear that Lingyun's attack just now did not cause him too much damage.

"The ability of the Sacred Gear is actually ineffective? This, how is this possible?" The figure looked toward Lingyun's direction, his eyes filled with a trace of disbelief.

"Divine Dividing of the White Dragon Emperor? Vali?" Looking at the appearance of this person in front of him, Lingyun knew exactly who he was.

The holder of one of the legendary Longinus, the Divine Dividing of the White Dragon Emperor, one of the powerhouses currently belonging to the Fallen Angel side, Vali Lucifer.

The Divine Dividing of the White Dragon Emperor possesses a very powerful ability, which is the ability to halve the power of anyone the owner touches and to use that halved power for himself. And the Boosted Gear of the Red Dragon Emperor, which is the counterpart to the Divine Dividing of the White Dragon Emperor, also possesses a very powerful ability, which is the ability to double the owner's power. It can also bestow the doubled power upon others.

This is the legendary power of the Red Dragon Emperor and the White Dragon Emperor. One can glimpse a portion of the might of the so-called Longinus from these two items.

However, this kind of ability is not permanent; it cannot exist forever. If it were permanent, it would be too heaven-defying. But even just like this, as long as there is sufficient time, the holders of these two Sacred Gears could each raise their own power to a level rivaling gods and the Devil King, or weaken gods and the Devil King to a state weaker than ordinary humans, fully worthy of the name Longinus.

However, although these two Sacred Gears are powerful, they are not without limitations. On one hand, the activation of this ability requires a certain amount of time, with a ten-second interval each time. On the other hand, if the physical ability of the Sacred Gear holder is too weak, they will be unable to withstand the power of doubling and halving, thereby causing their own body to fall into a state of collapse.

And at the moment of contact with Lingyun, Lingyun clearly felt that Vali had activated the Sacred Gear's ability more than once. It was clear that Vali had used a special method, and judging from the appearance he was showing now, this was clearly not just the appearance of a pair of light wings.

"Balance Breaker?"

Lingyun naturally knew that every Sacred Gear possesses the ability of Balance Breaker; under the condition of activating Balance Breaker, the ability of the Sacred Gear can be greatly enhanced. For example, the Divine Dividing of the White Dragon Emperor, when Balance Breaker is activated, can halve the opponent at any time and at any ratio. It is just that every activation of the ability consumes energy, and may even shorten the duration of the Balance Breaker.

"That's right! This is my Balance Breaker!" Vali clenched his fists, but a trace of caution appeared in his eyes as he looked at Lingyun.

"Vali, be careful, this person is completely different from the opponents we have encountered before!" A low voice sounded beside Vali.

"I know!" Vali nodded; this was the first time he had encountered an existence capable of rendering his Sacred Gear's ability ineffective.

Just now, he had clearly already activated Balance Breaker, yet it was completely unable to cause any influence on Lingyun; this was something he had never encountered before. One must know that the ability of the Divine Dividing of the White Dragon Emperor is effective even against gods and the Devil King, but Lingyun, apart from the power on his body wavering slightly, did not show any change.

"Vali, what is your purpose for coming here?" Lingyun looked at Vali, who had climbed up from the ground, and asked slowly. "Do you want to be my enemy, or are you saying that you want to be like this guy and start a war between the Three Great Factions?"

"Sorry, I don't have that intention. Although for me, having a war would make things more enjoyable. But before coming here, Azazel specifically instructed me not to mess around, and also to bring Kokabiel back. So, can you give Kokabiel to me?" Vali shrugged and said.

"Bring Kokabiel back, huh?" Lingyun tilted his head, looked toward Vali's direction, his eyes carrying a trace of ambiguous amusement.
