Chapter 397

Luo En slowly raised the magic sword in his hand, the silver blade flickering with a strange luster under the blood-red light of the Abyss.

Textures like water ripples flowed on the surface of the blade, and every pulse remained in perfect synchronization with the user's heartbeat.

The remaining legions — "Void Devourer," the remnants of "Flesh Fusion," and the survivors of "Dimensional Rift" — began to regroup after a brief shock.

Although these Abyss warriors were accustomed to various terrifying scenes, Luo En's aura still made them feel unprecedented unease.

It was a sense of threat that transcended conventional cognition, like an instinctive fear when facing a natural enemy.

In De Lai Er's huge church body, the hundreds of imprisoned souls began to stir uneasily.

Those once-devout religious figures actually stopped their usual wailing and emitted a low whisper that approximated awe.

"Truly terrifying..."

De Lai Er's green-fire eye sockets stared tightly at the figure in the center of the battlefield, the bell in his chest cavity becoming rapid and irregular:

"That aura... is neither pure wizard power nor standard Abyss awakening; it reminds me of the 'Balance Breaker' mentioned in ancient prophecies..."

In the long years, De Lai Er had seen relevant records in some taboo books.

That was about a legendary existence capable of breaking the natural opposition between wizards and the Abyss, fusing two completely different power systems into one.

But those records all described it as some theoretical possibility; no one had ever truly achieved this kind of fusion.

"If it really is..."

De Lai Er's thinking began to run rapidly, analyzing the consequences this change might bring:

"The appearance of such an existence will completely rewrite the power balance between the Abyss and the main world.

Whether it is wizards or Abyss creatures, they will face unprecedented threats."

On Ke Luo's face, which was covered with time cracks, an unprecedented solemn expression also emerged.

As an observer of time, his perception ability extended to more distant future branches.

"I saw..."

His voice was like coming from the depths of the river of time, carrying a tremor that approximated fear:

"Countless timelines began to diverge violently after that existence appeared.

In some branches, the power structure of the entire Abyss was completely rewritten;

In some branches, the boundary between the main world and the Abyss disappeared; and in other branches..."

Ke Luo paused, time cracks flickering wildly around him:

"In other branches, even I cannot see the result.

Time itself became blurred in the face of those possibilities, as if some power transcending time was interfering with my observation."

Luo En saw the enemies regrouping, and the magic sword in his hand began to undergo subtle changes.

The silver blade flowed like liquid, reshaping its form.

The blade gradually lengthened and thinned, and the metal fluid redistributed, forming a more elegant and lethal arc contour.

The guard extended into a streamlined arc structure, both beautiful and practical, capable of perfectly protecting the user's hand.

Flexible strings began to grow from the end of the hilt.

Those were invisible strings composed of pure energy.

Each string was directly connected to the user's spiritual power, capable of precise adjustment according to intent.

"Child, this morphological change..."

Nari's voice sounded in the depths of his consciousness, carrying obvious worry:

"Will it consume too much of your spiritual power? Mother feels your consciousness fluctuations are vibrating violently..."

As a mother, she could keenly detect the subtle changes in her "child."

Although it looked very stable on the surface, the deep consciousness structure was indeed bearing huge pressure.

"Don't worry, Mother."

Luo En's response remained calm and confident, but his tone also carried a certain warm comfort:

"This is the result of the natural evolution of power; the magic sword is adapting to the form I truly need.

This pressure is within the bearable range, and will gradually decrease as the adaptation process completes."

He did not hide the fact that he was indeed bearing pressure, but he did not exaggerate the danger.

This honest way of communication made Nari feel more at ease instead.

After the transformation was completed, the magic sword in Luo En's hand had turned into a longbow with a unique shape.

The bow body was entirely silver, with energy patterns like the Milky Way flowing on the surface.

The bowstring was condensed from pure magic, flickering with faint light in the air.

The entire weapon exuded an elegant and lethal beauty, like a sacrificial vessel dedicated to an ancient Elven King.

Facing the regrouped "Void Devourer" legion, Luo En slowly pulled the energy string.

These strange existences from the eighth layer live by devouring reality, and each individual is an incarnation of walking void.

Their attack method is extremely terrifying, capable of turning everything they touch into an absolute void, without even leaving a trace of existence.

But it was precisely this pure evil nature that made them the perfect target for the "Hunt Evil" skill.

Luo En began to apply the technical principles of the Ring of Radiance, but the application method underwent a fundamental change.

No longer creating light birds that fly, but directly condensing light elements into arrow forms.

When the bowstring was pulled to the full, an arrow composed of pure light formed on the string.

The arrow was transparent, with energy like liquid stars flowing inside, exuding a pure aura that made all evil existences tremble.

"Go."

Luo En released the bowstring.

The light arrow shot toward the nearest Void Devourer like lightning, at a speed so fast that space didn't even have time to fluctuate.

The moment the arrow hit the target, this Abyss creature with void as its essence began to tremble violently.

The "void" trait within its body and the physical nature of the light clashed violently, repelling each other like water and fire.

The body of the Void Devourer began to show unstable fluctuations.

The originally perfect void structure was forcibly filled, and the form of existence appeared fundamentally disordered.

Finally, it completely disintegrated in a harsh sound of space tearing, and even the most basic trace of existence was completely erased.

Exclamations erupted from the spectator seats.

Everyone in the Abyss had heard of the terror of the Void Devourer.

That ability to turn everything into void was something even some high-level awakeners had to handle carefully.

But in front of Luo En, these terrifying existences that made people hear their names and turn pale were as fragile as paper.

"How is it a bit like the traits of those demon hunters..."

De Lai Er's voice carried deep shock:

"Each arrow carries the power of sanction against evil existences, this targeted restraint..."

He paused, a hint of fear appearing in his green-fire eye sockets:

"It's as if it was born specifically to hunt us."

Luo En had entered a certain transcendent combat state at this time, his consciousness and weapon reaching perfect unity.

The bowstring rang repeatedly, like the funeral bell of the Grim Reaper, with every sound announcing the death of an enemy.

Light arrows poured out like a rainstorm, each precisely hitting the fatal weakness of the target.

This was not a blind covering attack, but a precision sniper shot based on precise calculations.

The rationality of a wizard and the combat instinct of the substitute puppet were perfectly fused.

Allowing him to analyze the weaknesses of dozens of targets simultaneously and formulate the optimal strike sequence.

Kan Pu Si's space warriors tried to avoid the attack through dimensional jumping, moving and flickering between multiple spatial layers.

But the power of the stars contained in the light arrows had already transcended the limitations of space.

And with the insight bonus from the "Time-Knowing Eye," it happened to be able to penetrate such obstacles and disguises involving dimensional changes, striking directly at the essence of the target.

The arrows penetrated the dimensional barriers like they had spirituality, piercing enemies scattered across multiple spatial layers together.

Those space warriors who thought they were safe were as transparent and uncovered in front of the arrows.

Within a few minutes, hundreds of enemies turned into void, and the entire battlefield became empty.

Only a few dozen survivors remained, trembling at the edge of the battlefield, not daring to take another step forward.

Seeing their legion about to be wiped out, De Lai Er and other apostles, as well as the remaining apostles of several other legions, began to conduct emergency consciousness exchanges.

In the social system of Abyss creatures, direct spiritual dialogue is a common communication method between high-level existences.

Through this method, they can exchange large amounts of complex information in an instant without being detected by the outside world.

"Cannot let that monster continue..."

De Lai Er initiated the contact first, the bell in his church body becoming rapid and chaotic:

"I felt real danger. That form of existence not only threatens our legions but also threatens the fundamental basis of all our existences."

His judgment was not groundless.

As an ancient apostle from the same era as "Mad Bite" Mo Gelong, De Lai Er had seen too many so-called "geniuses" and "miracles."

But never had any existence made him feel such a strong sense of crisis.

That feeling was like facing a natural enemy, an instinctive warning written deep in the genes.

"Injecting power in violation of rules will invite Ma Genusi's punishment..."
