Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 304 - 305: Luo Kefei’s Determination [1/2]

Within Kalina’s domain, the Inner Hell of scorching flames (Inferno), the world transformed into an endless sea of crimson flames,

guided by the power of shadows, These flames condensed swiftly, taking the form of innumerable arrows. They descended with a furious storm, howling as they approached the ice wall ahead.

The thick, ice barrier shattered into countless fragments under the relentless assault of the fiery arrows, dissolving into oblivion within Inferno.

With the loss of the ice barrier protection, Luo Kefei, the Guardian General couldn’t hide his furious expression. At that moment, he no longer possessed the imposing aura he had at the beginning.

His clothes were torn, his cloak charred black, and his body covered in bloodstains as if he had just emerged from the depths of hell.

His wounds and burn marks were a chilling sight to behold.

As an eighth-Tier powerhouse, Luo Kefei possessed unparalleled healing abilities.

Most wounds would quickly mend, and even severed limbs could regenerate. However, now, Luo Kefei’s wounds continued to accumulate while his healing lagged far behind.

As expected, the flames from the shattered ice wall whistled toward Luo Kefei.

Despite timely unleashing his ice attribute aura and wielding his Icey blade to resist, he couldn’t evade all the attacks. Dozens of terrifying flame arrows pierced through the old general’s body.

Intolerable pain relentlessly assailed Luo Kefei’s mind, prompting the Grand General to release another heart-wrenching scream.

In the midst of Luo Kefei’s agony, a crimson figure launched a fierce attack, appearing abruptly before him, surrounded by an intense Shadow Aura. This attacker was none other than Kalina.

At this moment, the once-hidden jet-black demonic horns and demonic wings on Kalina’s body became strikingly visible. Her delicate body was engulfed in crimson flames, under her control, shaping into a sturdy flame armor that encased her alluring and captivating figure.

Simultaneously, red fiery patterns emerged on Kalina’s face, resembling battle totems.

It must be acknowledged that Kalina now exuded an indescribable beauty emanating from her fiery passion.

And in her beauty, the raging inferno of hellfire bestowed upon everything around an overwhelming sense of oppression. Beautiful, yet harboring a murderous intent.

Faced with such a beautiful and Powerful presence, Luo Kefei instantly felt as if he faced a great enemy, his blue eyes filled with gravity.

In the next moment, he saw Kalina’s sword, brimming with immense heat, thrusting toward him.

Guided by his instincts for battle and survival, Luo Kefei immediately raised the two blades in his hands, crossing them in front of his chest.

The Icey-blue aura surged forth without reservation, enveloping the twin blades.

Luo Kefei’s extreme cold was enough to freeze souls, a power that countless experts on the continent feared.

However, in the domain of the "Scorching Hell," surrounded by an endless expanse of fiery purgatory, and confronted with Kalina’s meticulously prepared killer move, this coldness appeared utterly inconsequential...

*Boom!*

Accompanied by a deafening roar!

The ice-blue Aura and the crimson power of shadows clashed violently! The shockwave generated by the eruption of terrifying power instantly swept through the entire space.

The successive and relentless impacts caused the stability of the domain to falter, with cracks appearing on the barriers of space.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

Confronted by Kalina’s powerful strike, Luo Kefei let out a hysterical roar.

His blue eyes Become red with blood, and fresh blood continuously flowed from the corners of his mouth! Almost all of his coldness was concentrated on the twin blades, and even parts of Luo Kefei’s soul began to burn, attempting to withstand Kalina’s attack.

However,

Compared to abyssal demons, human strength is limited.

Even though they both reached the peak of the eighth Tier, the physical strength, attacking power, defensive capabilities, and regenerative abilities of ordinary humans are far inferior to abyssal demons. Despite Luo Kefei’s current strength, after a series of earth-shattering clashes, his stamina had significantly consumed.

At this moment, even if he gave it his all, Luo Kefei can’t withstand Kalina’s attack.

As time passed,

The ice-blue radiance gradually became suppressed by the fiery crimson flames, and fresh blood continued to burst from Luo Kefei’s body.

*Boom!*

In that instant, the icy-blue aura that had been sustaining him finally lost its strength, crumbling away before being engulfed by the relentless crimson power of shadows. Lokefi’s twin blades slipped from his trembling hands, and Kalina seized the opening, ruthlessly driving her attack toward Lokefi’s chest.

*Crack...*

Accompanied by a crisp shattering sound,

Luo Kefei’s protective ice armor and the black gold armor on his chest were both shattered by Kalina’s attack, The scorching flames fiercely struck Luo Kefei’s chest, causing the esteemed general to spit out a mouthful of blood and sent him flying, crashing heavily into the barrier of the domain.

In this clash,

Kalina undeniably emerged victorious,

although Luo Kefei wasn’t instantly killed by the strike, he was undoubtedly on his last breath. As long as Kalina launched a few more attacks, Luo Kefei would unquestionably be dead.

This fact,

Luo Kefei himself was well aware of it,

looking at the Flame Demon King not far away, still bathed in raging fire and displaying an imposing aura, A strong feeling of powerlessness and a deep unwillingness welled up relentlessly in the heart of this experienced general.

"Heh... Nothing has changed…"

Luo Kefei helplessly shook his head,

after cultivating for so long, honing so many powerful techniques.

He thought that when facing a Demon King’s existence, he would have the strength to put up a fight.

He wouldn’t be as powerless as he was when facing the Sword Demon.

However, today, after facing Inferno, Luo Kefei despairingly discovered

that feeling of powerlessness had not disappeared.

Even if he exerted all his efforts, he couldn’t catch a glimpse of a glimmer of victory.

"Truly... truly a monster..."

Luo Kefei, with a touch of desolation, sighed and exclaimed.

After slightly regaining his senses from the recent conflict, Luo Kefei unconsciously glanced behind him, at the spatial barrier he had collided with earlier.

And at that sturdy barrier, a tiny crack appeared at this moment.

After enduring wave after wave of intense energy clashes, it seemed that a slight vulnerability appeared in Kalina’s domain.

Realizing this, Luo Kefei’s eyes suddenly narrowed,

if he could exert his remaining strength on it, he should be able to shatter Inferno’s domain barrier.

If he did that, he would be able to escape with his life!

"Survive... I must survive..."

Facing the mighty existence of a Demon King Infront of him, escaping might be a wise choice.

However,

After quietly pondering this thought, Luo Kefei sighed and shook his head.

After a moment of hesitation, he made a decision in his heart.

This time, he didn’t plan to escape.

The power of Inferno surpassed his imagination. If he were to flee, she would surely chase after him, and the entire skyDome would be engulfed in their battle, consumed by a sea of fire.

Countless citizens of the empire he protected would perish in the flames,

including his own daughter and granddaughter.

The evacuation speed of the sky’s residents couldn’t match the spreading speed of Inferno’s sea of fire.

...

Regardless,

As the esteemed general, he had to fulfill his duty and eliminate this terrifying Demon King existence right here! Even if he couldn’t defeat her, he had to hold her back! Delay her as much as possible until the people could evacuate to a safe place! Or until the Emperor and other powerful Cultivators came to support him!

If all else failed,

He would have to self-destruct, taking this creature down with him!

With this thought in mind, Luo Kefei’s expression turned resolute.

The power that had just subsided within him surged once again, and even his life soul began to burn.

His gaze locked onto Kalina, devoid of the previous despair and oppression, now filled with unwavering determination.

"Bring it on!!"

After saying that,

Luo Kefei took a deep breath, tightly gripping the newly formed icy blade in his hands.

They radiated a dazzling icy-blue light as he launched a fierce assault toward Kalina in front of him...

’?!?!’

’Huh?!’

Seeing this scene, Kalina, who had intended to launch an attack to stop Luo Kefei from escaping, couldn’t help but reveal a Shocked expression,

’What?!’

"He dares to charge at me??"
