Chapter 683 - 484: "World’s Spine", Searching for a World Destruction Level Battlefield
Mage Wendel, having finally found a worthy opponent, could at last reveal his true might!
A torrent of crimson-gold Flame blotted out the sky, completely submerging the thousand-meter-long Void Blade Mantis.
However, how could a powerful Catastrophe Level Demon be defeated so easily?
SHINK! SHINK! SHINK! SHINK!
From within the sea of Flame, countless sharp sounds of space being torn apart suddenly erupted!
The Void Blade Mantis, surrounded by the Flame, let out a silent, furious roar.
Its two scythe-like claws, each hundreds of meters long, danced into a blur of dark purple phantoms!
Thousands of crisscrossing streams of Sword Qi slashed out madly from within the sea of Flame!
Each stream of Sword Qi held the terrifying Power to sever space itself. They tore through the Flame and ripped apart space, attempting to hack the torrent of fire engulfing it to absolute smithereens!
Two Catastrophe Level powers engaged in the most direct and violent confrontation in the shattered sky!
The torrent of Flame was sundered and torn by the endless Sword Qi, transforming into countless Mars flying through the sky.
But in the next moment, the sundered Flame would swiftly converge again, reforming into a raging torrent that "bit" at the Void Blade Mantis in the center from all directions.
The Flame was endless.
The Sword Qi was also endless.
On one side was the destructive Blazing Flame that could incinerate all creation.
On the other was the conceptual edge that could sever space.
Every collision between the two powers triggered violent spatial tremors. Streaks of pitch-black spatial rifts constantly flashed and vanished around the battlefield, like the final Wailing of this world.
"Good! Now this is more like it!"
Mage Wendel watched the Void Blade Mantis struggle and fight back wildly within his Flame Domain, the smile on his face growing ever wider.
He stretched out his hand and made a grasping motion toward the sea of Flame.
"Melt!"
With his low shout, the torrent of Flame that had merely been enveloping the Void Blade Mantis suddenly constricted!
It was no longer simple Flame, but began to grow viscous, as if transforming into true, flowing, crimson magma!
The magma churned and roared like a living Giant Beast, wrapping itself tightly around the Void Blade Mantis. It seeped into every crevice of its body, frantically scorching the Demon’s indestructible Void Shell!
HISS...
The Void Blade Mantis let out a pained screech.
Under the scorching heat of the crimson-gold magma, its dark purple shell began to emit wisps of green smoke as molten marks appeared on its surface.
The intense pain completely enraged this predator from the void.
Its two compound eyes suddenly flared with light!
An even more terrifying will erupted from its body!
VMMM!
A ripple of dark purple energy violently expanded outward with its body at the center!
Exile into the Void!
This was one of its most powerful Talent Abilities!
It could forcibly banish all matter and energy within a certain range into the endless dimensional rifts!
Wherever the dark purple ripple passed, whether it was Mage Wendel’s raging torrent of Flame, the surrounding dust and floating Meteorites, or even space itself—all of it was "erased" in an instant!
It was as if an invisible hand had gouged a hole straight through the canvas of reality!
A vast expanse of absolute "nothingness," over a thousand meters in diameter, appeared in the center of the battlefield!
The Void Blade Mantis’s figure reappeared.
It looked somewhat battered.
Its dark purple shell was covered in molten marks, and dark purple blood even trickled from the joints of its limbs.
But its aura was even more ferocious, more violent than before!
It raised its head, its compound eyes burning with black fire, and locked its gaze on Mage Wendel, who was hovering in the distance.
The next moment, its figure... vanished from its spot.
A spatial jump!
Raylo’s pupils contracted sharply!
He was all too familiar with this skill.
Almost at the same instant, the space behind Mage Wendel warped violently. The giant scythe, shimmering with a Space Blade, silently swung down at his head!
The scythe arrived without a sound, yet it was impossibly fast.
It didn’t travel at high speed in the physical sense; it directly traversed space to appear behind Mage Wendel.
This was a killing blow!
Faced with this sudden, deadly backstab, Mage Wendel acted as if he had eyes in the back of his head, not even turning around.
He even still wore that arrogant and confident smile.
"A fine strike!"
He let out a low shout and, instead of retreating, leaned his body back sharply!
Just as the giant scythe, powerful enough to sever space, was about to touch his body—
VMMM!
The hundred-meter-tall, crimson Melting Furnace spinning above his head suddenly aimed its opening downward!
WHOOSH!
A torrent of crimson, even more viscous and scorching than before, erupted from the opening like a volcano, instantly swallowing Mage Wendel’s figure whole.
The giant scythe slashed into the torrent of Flame as if plunging into an endless ocean of magma.
The indestructible Space Blade on the scythe’s edge frantically sliced through the surrounding Flame, but its speed suddenly slowed as if it were trapped in a mire.
And the sundered Flame would heal in an instant, then reverse its course with even greater ferocity to envelop, entwine, and smelt the giant scythe!
