Chapter 1929: Ashes of the Burning Fire
Devouring ancient evil objects with a human body was something that was absolutely impossible to do. But this strange body of his at this time seemed to be cast for this purpose.
The bottle entered his body completely, his aura became powerful again, the brass Ring of Order covered with cracks appeared again behind him, and then dense black little hands emerged from the center of the Ring of Order, filling the cracks in the Ring of Order, but also making the Ring of Order look even more strange.
"I use my body to suppress the power of 【Door in the Bottle】. You only need to defeat me in this state, which is equivalent to defeating it and letting it fall into a weak state, without having to face this terrible evil object directly."
While Laplace Howard was speaking, he was still trying to suppress the twitching expression on his face. He was indeed using his body to suppress this ancient evil object, but even so, Xia De and Sister Daifulin still noticed that the power of the evil object was gradually affecting his body and eroding his spirit. The sound of bang-bang-bang kept coming from his body, but this time it was not a heartbeat, but rather the sound of doors being hit.
The flames surged fiercely, as if they also felt the new firewood that could be lit. But the Diviner just opened his mouth, and the surging flames were swallowed by him, making the twisted and strange aura on him even more powerful.
"I locked this evil object with my body, come and defeat me."
He covered his chest and said to the two people in front of him, but his eyeballs had turned pure white at some point:
"Of course, if I defeat you, it means that my path has not yet come to an end."
"You originally wouldn't have planned to bring the maze demon - Yaru here to lock it up at the end, right?"
Xia De asked, and only after the other party nodded did he finally understand why the demon was carrying a 【Universal Key】 alone. Obviously, both sides were calculating each other, and that evil spirit had long been guarding against this partner of his.
Whether Laplace Klein Howard really wanted to solve the hidden danger of the evil object - Door in the Bottle after his failure, or just wanted to give himself another chance to try, or both ideas existed, this was no longer important.
Dense black little hands connected with black lines surged toward all directions from behind him, and as he floated into the air in the sea of fire, the strange Ring of Order behind him actually changed from a round brass shape to a square brass shape. As the "Ring of Order" grew larger and larger, Xia De finally understood that it was clearly the Ring of Order transforming into a giant door standing behind him.
Xia De looked at Sister Daifulin:
"I can't beat him, he is in this state... can you?"
The nun shook her head slightly, and the secret silver eye mask with dense patterns reflected dazzling light in the sea of fire. Xia De had never seen all the patterns on the exquisite ornament so clearly, but then, under the reminder of "She," Xia De quickly looked away. Such staring was a very impolite behavior toward the nun in front of him.
"But don't you still have a way?"
The nun asked softly, but this was actually an affirmative sentence.
Xia De hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should use this method, so Sister Daifulin lowered her head and said again:
"I am the fire-protecting nun, and you are the fire-bearing hero. You and I are one."
Xia De was then persuaded. Pink luster gathered in his hand, turning into another "Thorn of Love," which the nun took.
Then he stepped back a few steps, took a deep breath, and used the massive Spirit transformed from the flames he had absorbed through the nun just now, and used that brand-new power once again:
"Domain - Zhong Lou Lover!"
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The sea of fire behind Xia De seemed to have been split by someone. While the flames were avoiding toward both sides, Sister Daifulin raised her head slightly, "seeing" the black stone clock tower rising at the end of the road behind Xia De at some point.
Flames wrapped around that road, and flames licked that clock tower. Under the clock tower, the Seventh Ring of Order flashing with light behind Xia De, Miracle - 【Charm】, Enlightenment - 【Zhong Lou Lover】, and Enlightenment - 【Flesh and Blood】 all flashed with dazzling spiritual light.
The sea of fire did not transform into the snowy Fairy Tale Town, but the clock tower, Xia De, and Sister Daifulin had already been connected into a line. The red, cracked land under their feet had also turned into neat stone roads.
The nun lowered her head slightly, letting no one see the expression on her face. With her back to the Diviner, facing Xia De and the clock tower, she held the "Thorn of Love" with both hands and slowly stabbed it into her chest.
Gray stone appeared at the stabbing point. Amidst the rustling sound, the nun turned into a statue wearing a silver eye mask, and then scattered into a pile of ashes on the ground. On the ashes, the eye mask like a silver crown lay quietly, reflecting the dazzling light of the surrounding sea of fire.
But in an instant, a large hand wrapped in gray gauze and covered with fire-red cracks picked up the eye mask.
Xia De, who was over three meters tall, draped in tattered knight armor, wrapped in gray gauze, and even the edges of his skirt armor flashing with dazzling fire-red embers, tucked the eye mask onto the upper part of his left arm. As his arm swung, ashes kept falling from his body, and he pulled out a long sword wrapped in gray stone shells from the flames in his palm. Fire sparks and cracks immediately spread toward the long sword.
Burn marks were all over Xia De's body, as if he had turned into ashes that had burned out.
He swung the long sword forward forcefully, and the flame light marks remained in the air for a long time. At the same time, the stone shells on the surface of the angel-level relic 【Ashes】 peeled off, and fire-red cracks spread all over the sword body. The long sword transformed into a flame greatsword that matched Xia De's body size at this time in the flames.
Holding the sword in his right hand and holding it empty in his left hand, flames rose from his palm. He pinched the flames to pieces forcefully, and the raging flames wrapped around his whole body. Then the flames dissipated, but the severe burn marks on his body surface had all been lit. The surrounding flames provided Spirit for him at this moment continuously, and the roaring sea of fire seemed to be cheering and celebrating for him at this moment.
This was his home field, and Sister Daifulin's suggestion was very correct. In this state, it was impossible for him to lose to anyone.
This was already the fourth time Xia De used the power of "Domain - Zhong Lou Lover" tonight. After merging with Yiluna alone, merging with the seven in one and the red butterflies, and simultaneously merging with the Chosen One of Space and Balance, the fusion with the Chosen One of Death, Sister Daifulin, brought Xia De a feeling that was particularly different.
Hot but cold, the soul seemed to be propped up by a piece of charred wood, but the wood happened to have a few sparks that had not yet gone out.
The "Primal Fire" existing in the deepest part of Sister Daifulin's soul and body finally touched Xia De's soul directly for the first time at this moment.
Mr. Edmund of Coldwater Port said this was an Unknown-level relic, and Sister Daifulin said it was an angel-level relic. But under Xia De's powerful soul perception, he clearly felt that even the Unknown-level relic 【Tracing Back Time】 did not have such powerful power as this tiny spark.
The tall body took steps on the stone road, looking up at Laplace Klein Howard floating in the air. The blade pointed upward, and the sea of fire followed the command and turned into thousands of chains, entangling with the black little hands behind the Diviner.
Xia De stepped upward forcefully, stepped on the flames, left the ground, and also arrived in the high sky. There was no need for any complicated spell-casting or preparation. The silver-white "Thunder Spear" pinched from the sea of fire with his left hand was thrown toward the black little hands that were rushing toward him.
After the figure of the Diviner was revealed behind those black little hands, he swung the greatsword in his hand and left fire marks in the air while smashing toward the enemy in front. The latter, while controlling those little hands to continue to fight with the sea of fire that was trying to burn him to ashes, summoned a shield like a brass door to block in front of him.
Clang~
Fire sparks splashed. In the loud noise, the greatsword in the giant Xia De's hand hard-headedly smashed a dent in the door shield in front of him.
One strike did not work, so he swung the greatsword to continue smashing. Laplace Klein Howard kept retreating under the bombardment of that increasingly powerful force. At this time, not only did the Ring of Order behind him transform into a standing door, but even a "door" symbol appeared on his brow.
Strange black lines surged from his brow to all parts of his body, and some even moved away from the skin and touched the air, but were quickly burned by the surrounding flames. If it weren't for facing Xia De and Sister Daifulin in such a state, and if it weren't for the environment at this time, this would definitely be another bitter battle.
"God-Caller, Xia De Surun Hamilton, this time I lost to you."
His voice with an echo came out, but it could not stop Xia De's action of holding the sword and hitting the shield.
"The end of the world will surely come in the Sixth Era, and we don't have much time."
Smash after smash, the brass door was finally completely pierced by the greatsword. The greatsword swung toward the Diviner's body, and the fire and black light erupted at the same time in an instant, even pushing away some flames in the air:
"My path has already failed, but why do you think that you will definitely succeed?"
The greatsword that split the black light carried flames and stirred his body into fragments, but from the brass door standing behind the corpse, another Laplace Klein Howard walked out.
"Arrogance is the original sin of intelligent life. Do you know how many people, besides you and me, are silently working hard to reverse the doomsday that is destined to come? Do you want me to tell you the stories of everyone?"
Xia De swung another sword. Laplace Klein Howard took a step back and hid directly behind the brass door transformed by his own Ring of Order. The ash greatsword hit the door, and with a hum, both sides retreated in the fire. Xia De felt his palm was numb from the shock. ===== CHAPTER 1930 =====
