Chapter 2105: Xia De's Principle of Return
The strong wind pressure made the locked small boat almost sink into the sea, but Xia De, who was standing at the bow, seemed completely unaffected. Closing his eyes tightly, the power surged between the divine resonance, and the fatal sense of crisis brought about a brand-new breakthrough belonging to him.
"Time reversal... fishing technique... unloading force rotation... Mia tail flick... sun and moon return."
The long sword was drawn from behind, and the silver sword light almost made Miss Lei Qianya unable to open her eyes. The storm had completely turned into a blizzard at this moment. A pitch-black lightning flashed between the snowflakes. In the deafening rumbling sound, the frog leg fell towards the sea surface, and Xia De, holding the sword at the bow, jumped into the high sky with a leap.
On such a pitch-black night, compared to the ocean, snowflakes, and that falling black light ball, his figure was not eye-catching. But when the phantom of the spiral starry sky appeared above his head, no one could ignore the sword light that flickered at that moment.
【Night Watcher】 was raised high above his head, and the stars in the starry sea phantom swirled with the movement of the sword dance. Xia De in the sky opened his eyes and finally integrated all his insights into the movements at this moment, truly turning the high-level strange art that Miss Adele Isabella had spent her whole life creating into his own power.
【Night Watcher】 touched the black light ball falling from above, and as his body rotated in the air, the swinging long sword seemed to adsorb the light ball, making the pitch-black light turn into ink color, and as the long sword rotated, it was all attached to the long sword.
Miss Lei Qianya below saw it most clearly. The pitch-black light ball had clearly disappeared, and Xia De, who was rotating and swinging his sword in the air, left a huge ink-colored circular sword mark that broke through the snowy night, which could be seen even in the center of Moon Bay City.
And as the rotation ended, Xia De faced the Eleven-Ring Shushi who was casting spells in the air again, and the long sword in his hand slashed forward with the power of that rotation:
"Principle of Return!"
The galaxy reversed, time flowed backwards, and the reversed ink-colored energy almost turned into thunder and lightning, striking back at its original owner with Xia De's sword swinging movement in the air.
The "Dragon Devourer" who was casting the spell never expected his full-strength blow to be resolved like this. The power of the black light striking his face was even stronger than when he made the move just now. He was forced to descend in altitude to try to dodge, but it was too late. In the dull sound, the seven huge pitch-black dragon heads behind him were blown to pieces by the ink-colored sword light, the life ring hid in the void, and he screamed, almost spitting blood and falling straight onto the boat below.
The old man in the priest's robe stood up and helped him up, and an Eleven-Ring life ring appeared behind him as well. At this moment, the church people who saw the confrontation at the pier realized what had happened just now. Just as they were about to fly to the sea area to help the unknown swordsman pursue the victory, Xia De, who threw out that sword in the air, was falling, and his roaring voice had already reached Miss Lei Qianya's ears:
"Throw me higher!"
The cinnabar birthmark trembled because of the excitement in her heart. She stood up, and as Xia De was about to fall onto the boat, she used compressed wind to make Xia De, who was squatting down to unload force, fly back into the higher night sky at the cost of the small wooden boat almost being stepped into the sea by him.
The wind blew over his whole body, and the snow and silver light went against the current. At this moment, almost all eyes were focused on the figure that rose into the airspace that had become dangerous because of the black lightning. The long sword was held high by him, and the sound of "Ah~" was even louder than the thunder in the blizzard.
Bella Lei Qianya below, the three people riding dragons and the church Ringed Shushis at the pier, and even at the edge of the pier and the urban area, in the temporary station of the Dawn Church's action tonight, the Thirteen-Ring Shushi "Hand of Radiance" Joshua Brooklyn also widened his eyes and looked at the night sky on the distant sea.
These people who had the same movements saw the heavy pitch-black lightning falling in the rain curtain in the next moment, hitting the man who was holding the long sword high.
Boom!
Thunder attached to the long sword. The thunder induced by the seal of the god was far beyond Xia De's normal tolerance. But he in the high sky still held 【Night Watcher】 with both hands, and after reaching the highest point in the sky, he slashed it down with all his strength.
At this moment, it was as if thunder reappeared. After the pitch-black thunder was connected by the long sword, it almost vented all its power towards the lower part again.
Except for the witch nearby, no one could see clearly what happened next. The small wooden boat that was confronting Xia De just now turned into fly ash under this blow. And the two injured Eleven-Ring Shushis quickly fled along the sea surface and were caught by the bone dragon that descended and fled to a further distance.
Pitch-black electric light was still jumping on the sea surface. The Great Witch of "Fate" did not even go to pursue the two who fled, just stood there and looked at the scene in front of her in a daze. Afterwards, Xia De fell back onto his own small boat. The original standing posture turned into kneeling on the bow of the boat with a sword because of the black electric arcs jumping on his body. But he was not annoyed at all, and his face was full of ecstasy:
"It's not a complete reversal of the attack, but changing the direction will lose attack power, so they were allowed to escape. But finally, finally..."
【Outsider, you have mastered the strange art - Adele's Principle of Return, corresponding to the 【Space-Time】 rune. Although not fully mastered, you have already known the core of this strange art.】
"She" seemed to be happy for his progress again.
"Compared to Miss Isabella, I am still far behind."
Standing up with the sword, the remaining cloth strips were still hanging on the long sword, and there were golden afterglows on the cloth strips swaying with the wind. The long sword emitted a stable and charming silver light, and the golden runes were covered by the cloth strips. The Great Witch of Fate, who was shocked and speechless, could only see the two runes "Clear" and "Sword Slash."
"You, you..."
She wanted to reach out to support the half-kneeling Xia De, but was scared away by the black electric arcs jumping on his body.
"Very powerful, right? It's the lady who taught me who is powerful."
The black electric arc crackled and jumped again by his ear, making the corner of Xia De's mouth twitch in pain. Unexpectedly, even after being struck in the arm by the black electric light, Miss Bellindell reached out again, this time truly helping him up. Xia De looked at her with a smile and wiped the water from his face.
He was not worried that the strange art just now would be recognized. After all, although it was the same strange art, his current spellcasting method was too different from that Great Witch of Time. As long as he didn't use it in front of the other party, he wouldn't worry about being exposed at all:
"I know you are very curious, but let's talk about anything after we go back. The 【Dragon Feast Sect】 was temporarily repelled, and the church probably won't pay attention to this side for a while. I'm going into the sea to get something now, I have already sensed it. If I haven't surfaced within three minutes, you should leave by boat first."
Turning around and about to jump into the sea, the witch grabbed his sleeve. This time it was not to stop Xia De from going, but to hug his neck, and then gently touched her lips to his... She finally couldn't suppress the throbbing in her heart at this moment.
The two people who were close at hand looked at each other. In the witch's golden eyes, there was still the familiar look, but it also carried some very complex emotions. Xia De smiled at her again:
"Rest assured, I will definitely come back."
After speaking, he turned and jumped into the sea. The blonde witch wanted to grab him subconsciously, but didn't grab anything.
Above his head was a gale and blizzard, but entering the water felt as warm as returning to a home with steam pipes in winter. Listening to the dragon roar that became clearer and clearer in his ears, Xia De swam downwards without a purpose. The joy and feeling of breakthrough brought by mastering 【Adele's Principle of Return】 relying on the thunder and the insight of the moment made his inspiration become more powerful.
He grasped the inspiration in his heart, pursued the increasingly clear call, gradually closed his eyes, and gave up all senses except inspiration little by little.
Time and space seemed to become unimportant in this process of constant diving. The sea water around him slightly revealed light. And when Xia De opened his eyes again, he had stopped in the pitch-black water.
There seemed to be nothing around, but there seemed to be everything around. Reaching out to feel the rhythm of the water, every touch of water pattern seemed to record the war that happened in the ancient era.
"This is not that sea anymore."
Xia De understood that he had found the target. This strange dark underwater world was the remnant of that great war back then. He passed through the outer periphery of the seal by relying on the faint attraction of divinity, and at this moment he had to face the main body of the seal. This was easier than he thought, but this ease was not just because his inspiration was powerful, but because he had the power to resonate with this seal on his body.
【So, what are you going to do?】
"She" asked with a smile, Xia De frowned slightly and looked at his hands.
Cracks had spread all over his body without knowing it, and golden scars provided some light in the water. So he reached out his right index finger, and with a wave, the golden light marks left a trace in the water for a moment.
Xia De then understood what he had to do. It seemed that he didn't have to force the use of 【Philosopher's Stone】 to cooperate with "Key of Doors" to pick the lock:
"Guardian of the Merman - Lord of the Scarlet Spiral."
The spiral-shaped holy emblem appeared.
"God of Manipulating Ocean Storms - Furious Storm."
The lightning and hurricane-shaped holy emblem appeared.
"God of Loneliness Drowning in the Deep Sea - God of Deep Sea Drowning."
The holy emblem of the terrifying skeleton in the sea appeared.
The holy emblems of the "Three Evil Gods of Cold Water Port" now appeared in front of Xia De together, arranged in a triangle. The golden holy emblems resonated with each other, and the vibrating ripples spread rapidly in all directions.
"The God War back then, these three actually participated."
The trembling sea water even made Xia De feel his skin a bit itchy, but he couldn't care about feeling these, because the dragon roar he had been able to hear since just now had completely disappeared at this moment.
The surroundings did not return to silence, and the gurgling sound coming from the water body was like liquid boiling. ===== CHAPTER 2106 =====
