Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 163 - 164: Strange Thoughts 4/4

"Ahhhhhh!!!"

Accompanied by a painful scream,

Wilt, who was just fiercely determined moments ago, was directly struck by the golden energy and sent flying! He spat out blood as he crashed violently into the back mountain of the Marquis’s family!

This scene,

Left Jei and Xiumu dumbfounded.

Similarly,

Yumo, who was still in a dazed state from afar,

Staring at the silver-haired girl enveloped in golden light, Yumo’s beautiful crimson eyes couldn’t help but shake, and her delicate body trembled continuously. Yumo’s hands were tightly clenched, not only shocked by the powerful force Mengxi displayed, but also trying to suppress the sudden impulse within her body,

That golden light?

’Is that divine power? It’s so dense?’

Yumo couldn’t help but bite her lip,

When she saw Wilt’s scythe about to touch Mengxi’s fragile body, Yumo’s eyes filled with intense killing intent, as if she wanted to directly tear Wilt apart. However, just as Yumo instinctively wanted to stop Wilt’s attack, the power that burst out from Mengxi instantly left Yumo dumbfounded, and the gathered power of the Shadow in her hand suddenly dispersed...

That burst of golden light,

Containing a dense and sacred power, even made Yumo herself feel threatened,

Not only threatened,

But also disgusted,

It was a disgust and hatred that came from the depths of her soul,

It even evoked the thick killing intent within Yumo’s heart...

The sacred aura emanating from Mengxi before had already made Yumo feel uncomfortable, but she could still tolerate it. However, now it was different. Even with some distance between them, upon sensing that divine power, Yumo’s eyes couldn’t help but emit a chilling murderous intent.

Crimson light slowly rippled in the girl’s eyes, and even the blood butterflies surrounding Yumo danced wildly with their wings due to their master’s inner turmoil. An extreme cold aura gradually spread out from Yumo at its center,

Trees withered directly, the grass under the trees became shriveled, and those heretics of the Divine Punishment Sect who were hiding nearby, intending to make a move on Yumo, were enveloped by the cold aura released by Yumo without a doubt. Their hearts stopped abruptly, and they died on the spot...

Kill,

Kill!

Kill her!

Eradicate this aura completely!

...

...

A series of strange thoughts crazily sprouted in Yumo’s heart, causing her to raise her hand and press it tightly against her head, trying to suppress that terrifying impulse.

However,

As another wave of golden divine power swept over, an eerie voice unconsciously sounded in Yumo’s mind,

-Kill her, it’s your mission-

’What?!’

’Who? Who’s talking?! What mission...’

’No!’

’No, I can’t!’

’I can’t kill her!’

’That’s the protagonist! I, I can’t harm her! I can’t...’

For a moment, Yumo fell into an extremely chaotic state. In order to suppress the strange impulse in her mind and to return to calm as soon as possible, she jumped down from the treetops and rushed to the wall beside her, using her head to fiercely smash the wall!

"Boom~boom~..."

--

On the other side,

Wilt, who was sent flying by the golden light, after taking a few deep breaths, shook off the rocks covering his body, and barely managed to crawl out of the huge pit.

"Cough, cough..."

At this moment, Wilt had lost his original composure, and his face was already filled with shock and astonishment.

His previously elegant black robe was now in tatters due to the impact, and coupled with the blood stains on his face and body, as well as his unkempt appearance, Wilt now hardly looked any different from a beggar on the street.

However, Wilt had no energy to care about his appearance now.

After standing up, his dark green eyes locked onto the silver-haired girl amidst the ruins in the distance.

’Is that a miracle?’

This golden power? Is it divine protection??

The power left by the Goddess to the Chosen One, used to protect her in critical moments?

Although the Child of Demon lord had mentioned this to him,

Wilt never imagined that this inexplicable golden power could have such a terrifying impact.

In an instant, not only did it break his attack,

But it also severely injured him?!

Keep in mind that he is an 8th-tier high-level cultivator!

It seems those guys from the Asumos Church weren’t talking nonsense this time...

For a moment,

Intense regret surged in Wilt’s heart. If he had been more cautious just now and prepared his defenses in advance, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a sorry state!

’Damn, I was careless...’

’However,’

’Since I’m not dead yet!’

’It will still be you who dies!’

’According to the church, such divine protection can’t be used consecutively! This power can only protect you once, and after that, I’d like to see what you’ll do!’

’Even if I’m severely injured!’

’I still retain the strength of the 8th tier!’

Under the intense pain, Wilt’s expression grew more and more ferocious. At the same time, recalling his embarrassing appearance just now, his heart burned with anger, wishing he could completely erase the girl who had caused him to lose face!

’Blood Scythe, return!’

After murmuring a phrase in his heart, a green light suddenly rippled in Wilt’s palm!

The blood-red scythe, buried in the ruins far away, sensed Wilt’s call and suddenly broke through the ground, instantly returning to his hand.

Gripping the scythe tightly, Wilt let out a chilling laugh and prepared to launch his final attack!

However,

As he finished his cold laughter and looked back at the position of the silver-haired girl,

Wilt’s eyes suddenly narrowed sharply,

’What?!’

Amidst a mix of golden and silver lights, the silver-haired girl unexpectedly launched her attack first after opening her heterochromatic eyes—one gold, one purple! In an instant, she turned into a streak of golden light and charged straight at him, astonishing Wilt!

A strong unease feeling instantly surged into Wilt’s heart!

He didn’t need to care about the attack of a 6th-tier girl,

Even if he only had one finger left, as an 8th-tier high-rank expert, he could easily crush a 6th-tier existence!

However,

Wilt was surprised to find that at this moment, Mengxi was not a simple 6th-tier! With the enhancement of the golden divine power, the Chosen One’s strength was forcibly elevated to the peak of the 7th tier!

Of course, if it was just the peak of the 7th Tier, Wilt wouldn’t need to be so uneasy...

The important thing was that the girl’s body didn’t just possess holy power, but a more terrifying divine power! Like the power of shadow, divine power of the same volume had more strength than magic or aura! As a result, within the same level, those who used divine power could almost completely overpower those who used magic!

Although the Chosen One was now at the peak of the 7th order, the pressure of her outburst had caused Wilt’s face to change drastically,

The smile on his face just now vanished in an instant!

’Can it really be increased so much?!’

’is the Saintess cheating or what?!’

As he cursed in his heart,

Mengxi had already reached Wilt! The sword wrapped in golden light struck straight at Wilt’s face! The absolute pressure brought by the divine power made Wilt’s dark green magic power starts to wane! The cold killing intent on the sword’s edge made Wilt feel the long-lost sense of life and death crisis!

"No! Don’t think you can win just because you have divine power!!"

Suppressing the fear that sprouted in his heart,

Wilt roared and waved the blood scythe in his hand, facing Mengxi’s attack head-on!

"Boom!!!"

In an instant,

Accompanied by the flashing of intense light and the collision of two horrifying forces,

The sharp sword carrying a sacred aura fiercely collided with the sinister blood-filled scythe! The powerful residual energy suddenly spread from the center of their battle! In a flash, the ground shook, and the sky cracked! The two already battered peaks around them collapsed!

As the two forces continued to clash,

Wilt, who was already severely injured, felt increasingly unable to hold on, and his face gradually showed a painful expression. Under these circumstances, Mengxi’s golden aura gradually suppressed Wilt’s dark green magic power!

"Clang!"

With a loud noise, the golden light suddenly overpowered the dark green light!

Wilt was directly sent flying by a sword strike! He suddenly flew into the sky and violently crashed into the barrier wall!

A mouthful of bright red blood spurted out of Wilt’s mouth again...
