CHAPTER 477: CHAPTER 477: EXPANSION

Light Spirit Mirror Light froze time and space, solidifying into a semi-transparent crystal, but within, Cain slowly and stiffly raised his head, glaring at the lofty Zhu Haomiao, a sinister grin tugging at his lips.

"Do you... think... you... can... kill... me?!!!"

Crack~

As if glass shattered, the interior of the semi-transparent crystal exploded with crisp sounds, a pair of majestic, elongated demon horns slowly spread on Cain’s head, blinding golden patterns writhing and growing along the horns, emitting divine waves that twisted space-time.

Gazing at the familiar horns, Zhu Haomiao’s cold and indifferent pupils slightly rippled, vaguely understanding something.

"Roar!"

Cain’s physique expanded rapidly, from a handsome, jade-like graceful young man, in an instant transforming into a demon over three meters tall, green-faced with fanged tusks, and muscles knotted all over his body.

Cobweb-like cracks spread across the crystal, and in the dim barrier world, a scarlet blood moon quietly emerged, casting a massive shadow that obscured the sky and sun, sketching the outline of bat wings on the ground.

Buzz buzz buzz~

The Asura King’s Kunlun Mirror trembled violently, watching as the enemy was about to break free from control, Zhu Haomiao leisurely extended his hand, grasping at the air.

At the same time, the giant Dharma Form behind him synchronized with his main body’s movement, raising its hand to draw an eerie and sharp treasure sword from the void.

Luo Hou Sword!

Armor Piercing Force·Abyss Split!

Flying Radiance Force·Moon Shattering!

High-position divinity and legendary law fused, a black light thin as cicada wings condensed on the sword blade, the splendid Red Lotus Karma Fire adhered to it, manifesting as trails of flying flame patterns.

Boom!

The Asura King’s Dharma form raised the treasure sword high, its entire body roaring with blazes, delivering a fierce slash at the immobile bat-wing demon.

Sizzle~

The flash of black light passed over Cain, his grotesque, terrified expression instantly froze, a barely perceptible bright red line slowly emerged on his face, from the top of the skull to the perineum, along the midline of his body, almost perfectly slicing him in half.

"No... it shouldn’t be this way, fate... wasn’t arranged like this..."

"Lord..."

"Why abandon me..."

"Ritual..."

Reaching towards the sky, Cain gazed into the void like a drowning man sinking into the deep sea, eyes sinister and despairing.

Crack~

Behind him, as if the scarlet blood moon pressing overhead was suddenly ripped apart, "slowly" disintegrating into two halves.

Simultaneously, the remaining destructive sword qi surged forth, landing in the city behind Cain, tearing open a bottomless pitch-black gorge.

Rumble rumble rumble~

The sword qi extended infinitely, where it passed, explosions erupted a hundred meters high like walls, delving deep into the distant ocean, disappearing beyond sight.

Peering into the faintly visible bright red magma at the gorge’s depths, Zhu Haomiao knew he nearly sliced through the earth’s crust with one strike, involuntarily furrowing his brows.

He then retracted his gaze, looking toward the gradually "splitting" Cain.

The previously hair-thin bright red sword mark steadily expanded, the gushing Red Lotus Karma Fire burning flesh and soul, destroying all vitality from the primordial level.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!"

A pain beyond the soul’s endurance cried out in a beast-like wailing lament from Cain as he was completely engulfed by the blazing red lotus flames.

Seeing the enemy’s "shell" gradually disintegrating, Zhu Haomiao squinted, the towering enormous serpent slowly leaned closer like a drooping cloud, fully enveloping Cain.

Opening an abyssal dark maw, the giant serpent devoured Cain in one bite, chewing joyously.

Crunch crunch~

Although Cain’s size was but a speck compared to the giant serpent, the serpent relished its meal, endlessly devouring source quality into its belly, every scale lighting up with intricate, mysterious, and splendid magic patterns.

On the other side, Zhu Haomiao stood in the void, savoring the delicious rich flavor on the tip of his tongue, eyes devoid of joy or sorrow, deep in his soul lit two indescribable distorted law runes.

Gluttony·Devour, Jealousy·Plunder

Essence, Qi, God +100

Strength, Body, Dexterity +200 (100×200%)

And as such massive "blood food" entered his belly, the last trace of the blood hole on Zhu Haomiao’s chest completely healed.

In an instant, every cell, every strand of soul burst with a tsunami-like surge.

Anger·Super Recovery

Essence, Qi, God +100 (Growth +50, Digestion Sedimentation +50)

Strength, Body, Dexterity +200 (Growth +50, Digestion Sedimentation +50) (×200%)

The flesh and souls of over a million sinners paired with high-position divine source quality rapidly digested and absorbed within a few seconds, Zhu Haomiao’s accumulated and sparse nutrition swiftly escalating his power, his aura swelling explosively.

Yet this was not the end; obliterating the festering destructive divinity, Zhu Haomiao’s vast greed coin reserves finally materialized, a spectacular golden cascade flowing in his pupils.

Meanwhile, countless native wizards finally escaped the core battlefield, gathering at the city’s edge, gazing at the three-headed, six-armed Dharma Form seated in mid-air, expressions dazed and despairing.

Gold-red flames roared, the enormous dark serpent, like a mountain, swayed and writhed behind the Dharma Form, appearing both evil and solemn, like a god-demon revolving around the sun.

In the center of the flames, the Asura King’s Dharma Form reflected the transformation of the main body, infinitely expanding from a few hundred meters to over a thousand meters, like a true constant star encompassing the city overhead.

Scorching, incinerating winds rushed forward, even separated by a vast distance, surrounding plants began to wither, countless wizards’ exposed hair curling and charring.

More terrifying still, at the battlefield center, directly beneath the burning "star," countless skyscrapers slowly melted like candles.

Metal, cement, glass...

All materials mingled into liquid magma, sticky and winding, converging into a bubbling fire lake.

The ferocious giant serpent coiled around the three-headed, six-armed god, seated at the sun’s center, beneath it, high temperatures distorted the air, the bright red magma fire lake spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye. Witnessing the scene like the end of the world, countless people posed a soul-deep question.

"What... is this thing?!"

Even the well-experienced High Rank Mages couldn’t help but lose their composure, as in their understanding, no matter how powerful, a single entity had its limits and couldn’t expand indefinitely.

But the monster before their eyes defied common sense, surpassing their understanding!

"No! It’s not a being meant for this world..."

Amidst the painful murmurs, the sky suddenly emitted an almost imperceptible crack, the whole gray-white world trembling slightly, seemingly unable to withstand the intense ravage.

In an instant, many reacted, shouting fiercely.

"Bad, the barrier is about to collapse, hurry and reinforce it!"
