Chapter 270: Beheading

The sky brightened.

The black knight floated in midair, yet orange-gold wings appeared behind him.

This scene resembled a floating archangel, back against the sun, slowly descending to judge the wicked and redeem the mortals.

"Sol (Holy Sun)"

When this miraculous scene occurred underground, it resembled a divine miracle even more.

Accompanying the chanting of "Word of the Sun," Li En transformed into an orange-red blazing sun, but this time, the power output had easily increased by four or five times.

This was Li En's first time using a two-character Dragon Word spell; it was a completely unknown experience, and he could only grit his teeth and endure.

"Skerva (Blade of Severance)!"

When two "Dragon Words" came together to form a "word," the meaning contained within became entirely different.

The model of the "sword" was the cornerstone; this time, not only magic power but also the "Sun" was poured into it.

Finally, a "Sun" appeared above Li En's head—a sword-shaped sun radiating holiness and heat.

This holy "Dragon Word" forged a holy weapon.

"Moo!"

The moment the holy Sun Sword appeared, the radiating brilliance had already begun to "dispel evil."

And Ulda Niu Mo, filled with the breath of purgatory, was naturally suppressed by the brilliance, naturally wailing in pain beneath this evil-dispelling holy light.

"Solskerva (Holy Blazing Sun Sword)!"

Li En did not hesitate; his loosely clasped hands suddenly struck downward.

And within the void encircled by his arms, that Sun Sword also smashed down fiercely!

"Moo moo moo!"

The beast in its agonized screams had nowhere to retreat; that nearly endless power of brilliance exploded all at once the moment it fell.

And this strike still carried the "Wallbreaker," which was invincible!

"Liberation. Purification. Gratitude."

The entire underground area brightened.

Light and heat overflowed infinitely; not only the two fighting parties, but even warriors like Claire were forced to retreat.

The earth began to scorch; vast patches of vines turned to ash, and the green evil fire was directly dispelled.

When the light began to fade, what echoed in the midair was no longer the cow's cry filled with negative emotions, but the final words of the "World Tree Sapling."

"Finally... liberation."

The light vanished, and the giant beast finally stopped.

Everywhere were steam and shattered stones; when the smoke cleared, the massive monster had become a giant corpse slumped on the ground.

The invincible Ulda Niu Mo had lost its head; a huge hole pierced from the skull to the chest, and most of the flesh had been burned to charcoal.

That sword of judgment had struck the Niu Mo's core fiercely.

The "angel" slowly descended, appearing holy and inviolable, yet he had already become a man covered in blood.

A single-character "Dragon Word" was probably the base magic output for a second or third-tier spell; Li En estimated that a two-character one was roughly equivalent to a fourth or fifth tier.

"At least a sixth-tier or higher grand spell."

The fact that it didn't die on the spot was because Li En realized he couldn't control it and activated the spell early, causing it to explode in an incomplete form.

"Are you okay?" Hela caught the falling Li En with both hands, not minding the bloodstains covering her palms.

"Need to rest."

At this moment, Li En himself was in truly terrible condition; the eagle's wings floated above the "dragon wings," and the powers of the snake, dragon, and even eagle were all activated, merely to sustain this kind of exhaustion.

That scene resembling an angel descending to the mortal world was merely the result of the bloodline being fully activated by the will to survive, forcing out the eagle's featherization ability.

However, looking at that massive headless corpse, Li En still nodded in satisfaction.

"Find someone to carry me; you continue the pursuit; I'll sleep for a while." Having spoken, Li En immediately fell into a coma.

And after confirming his aura remained stable, Hela and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

They looked at that charred corpse, their expressions still holding complex emotions.

Even though the mushroom people draining its life force was the main reason for killing this monster in one go, the explosive attack that destroyed its shell with a single strike still far exceeded conventional expectations.
