Chapter 301 299-me of Faith
The me Kirin''s eyes flickered with fire as it slightly shook its massive head, "So it was, all because of that useless fellow."
Forst Herald, staggering to the me Kirin''s side, cried out indignantly, "Hey, you two are actually having a chat here. Hurry up and kill this dimwit!"
Ethan, gasping for breath, continued to buy time, "So it seems, to defeat you, one must wield a me even stronger than yours."
"Exactly," the me Kirin responded sinctly.
"Why is that?" Ethan was genuinely puzzled, seeking an answer while also trying to extend their conversation.
The me Kirin, observing Ethan''s weakened state, knew that it wouldn''t even need to strike.
Ethan would crumble like a porcin doll, his body breaking apart piece by piece.
Perhaps it had been a long time since the me Kirin had spoken to anyone, for it seemed willing to borate.
"This is the world of the deities, where hierarchies are strict. The inherent Elemental Cycle has beenpletely obliterated."
"Elemental Cycle?" Ethan furrowed his brow slightly.
The me Kirin blinked its fiery eyes, "Essentially, Hydro counters Pyro, Pyro counters Dendro... such predeterminedws of nature."
"I see," Ethan nodded slightly, "So the battles between deities are more about strength?"
"Strength is too broad a term. It''s more about the depth of one''s mastery over the Power of Rules. A deity whoprehends more of the Power of Rules possesses overwhelming strength," the me Kirin exined, sounding like an ancient deity mentor guiding Ethan, a lost soul.
"So you''re saying, if I had a higher tier of me, I could defeat you?" Ethan''s eyes swirled, testing the waters with his question.
The me Kirin looked down upon Ethan, a hint of mockery in its gaze.
Its mouth, hot enough to be measured in thousands of degrees, uttered words chilling to the bone: "Nice thinking, but what a pity... Your me is too inferior; it stands no chance in killing me."
Forst Herald spoke disdainfully, "A mere ant, how high-grade of a me can it possibly possess?"
Ethan''s eyes lit up slightly, "Is the me of Faith considered high-grade?"
Forst Herald burst into loudughter, shaking its head back and forth in the air as if it had just heard the most preposterous thing, "me of Faith? Have you lost your mind? If you possessed that kind of me, you could be a god."
Desire flickered in the me Kirin''s eyes as it looked up at the sky, speaking softly, "That kind of me, although it is the lowest tier, is something I wish to possess…"
Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly, summoning Aneropo with an unstoppable smile on his face, "Sorry to disappoint, but I have the me of Faith."
The voices of me Kirin and Forst Herald abruptly stopped, their gazes simultaneously shifting to the fireball by Ethan''s side, distinctively different from the surrounding mes.
Aneropo''s fireball, radiating an unparalleled holy aura, was red-gold in color, with murmurs of prayers and supplications from believers mingling within…
This fireball was too conspicuous. As a master of fire, the me Kirin naturally noticed it.
The me Kirin''s pupils constricted in sudden fear, roaring, "How could you possess the me of Faith? That is the power of a deity…"
Ethan stood up, his lips curving slightly, "Don''t get me wrong, I don''t possess it."
Forst Herald, scared enough to almost jump up, pointed its robust serpent tail at the fireball in a panic, eximing, "Then where did thise from?"
Ethan bowed slightly toward the two massive beasts, speaking with gentlemanly grace, "Allow me to introduce everyone, my deity servant—Aneropo."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Aneropo materialized from the fireball.
Due to theck of Power of Faith, his form was not solid, emanating an ethereal feeling.
"Master, your servant Aneropo is at your service." Aneropo bowed slightly, his refined voice echoing throughout the entire valley.
Even the me Kirin, which had forgotten to flee, had its mes flickering rapidly in its eyes.
Shock had rendered it speechless.
This weak, almost dying insect actually had a deity... a deity servant?
The me Kirin took a step back, retreat already in its mind.
Ethan''s eyes flickered with intense fury as he lifted his spear once again, "Aneropo, coat my spear with ayer of the me of Faith."
"My master," Aneropo swung his arm, and ayer of golden-red mes enveloped Ethan''s spear, "The me of Faith has been applied."
Ethan pointed his spear at the me Kirin, a mocking smile on his face, "me Kirin, thanks for sharing so many secrets with me."
Seeing the mes on the sphemous Spear, the me Kirin was utterly terrified, its soul nearly departing from its body, "Who are you exactly? Are you a son of god from the divine realms? Why else would you have a deity servant?"
Ethan, however, was not about to give the me Kirin any chance to dy, "You don''t need to know anymore. Die. I really want to see what kind of monster you are."
He gripped the spear tightly, golden wings unfurling behind him, as he sped towards the me Kirin.
The me Kirin''s strengthy in its power and mes, but it had no advantage in terms of speed.
The tables had turned; Ethan was now chasing the me Kirin to kill it, just as he had done with Forst Herald.
Forst Herald, having fled early on, was once again caught up by Ethan.
Watching the me Kirin being pushed back, its fiery scales scattering and sparks flying everywhere, it couldn''t help but bitterly think: "Where in the world did this mane from? His strength is formidable, cunning as a fox, and most importantly, he has a deity servant by his side..."
"It seems our good days areing to an end."
A hint of pain shed in Forst Herald''s eyes; it truly did not want to return to those dark, sunless days.
The me Kirin, cornered and furious, had its eyes spewing magma, forcing Ethan back and standing its ground against him.
"So what if you possess the me of Faith? My power far surpasses yours; I will kill you."
The me Kirin advanced rather than retreating, attacking Ethan ferociously.
Ethan''s eyes burst with brilliance as he roared back: "Kill!!!"
Man and beast collided, and with a huge explosion, mes shot up into the sky.
A gigantic pir of fire hung in the void, almost reaching the heavens.
Demi-god Phito saw the pir of fire. Standing at the top of the cliff, he looked down into the fog-filled valley.
The breeze made his divine robe flutter and whistle.
"Ethan can seed, right?" Phito extended his hands, delicate as jade.
Red and blue lights shed momentarily in his palms.
At the valley floor,
The mes dissipated, and embers slowly fell.
Ethan stood in mid-air, clutching a spear in his hand.
The spear was thrust into me Kirin''s throat, from which mes erupted vigorously, as if blood itself was gushing out.
Fire and blood intertwined, creating an unparalleled masterpiece.
me Kirin screamed in agony, its body wavering unstably before finally copsing onto the ground.
The gleam of intelligence in me Kirin''s eyes gradually faded, its body bing somewhat rigid.
Forst Herald abruptly turned around, clumsily maneuvering its enormous body. Its pupils filled with timidity and confusion:
"What were you thinking fighting him? He has a deity servant... Could he be just an ordinary person?"
Forst Herald''s eyes brimmed with sorrow.
The massive body of me Kirin was still aze, filling the valley with thick smoke and the scent of something charred.
Ethan gazed upon this magnificent sight, catching his breath with a renewed glint of sharpness in his eyes.
"Forst Herald, will you still resist?"
Forst Herald looked at Ethan, its massive crystalline maw opening:
"He and I were one. With his death, I too cannot live."
Forst Heraldid its head upon the ground, as if waiting for death''s arrival.
True to its words, the mes throughout the valley began to recede.
They transformed into specks of light and merged into me Kirin''s body.
Ethan furrowed his brows, twirling his spear as he observed the scene before him.
me Kirin wouldn''t revive, would it?
However, after absorbing the surrounding specks of light, me Kirin''s body began to change, gradually shrinking.
Then, it suddenly disintegrated, and along with me Kirin, Forst Herald also copsed.
The two behemoths silently fell apart, leaving only a sky full of light specks behind.
These specks of light hung in various parts of the valley''s floor like stars.
The scene was fantastical and exceedingly beautiful.
It was like a field in July or August, filled with a myriad of twinkling fireflies.
Such a blurry and dreamy picture surely couldn''t be just for show.
Ethan furrowed his brows tighter, not quite understanding what had just happened.
Aneropo approached Ethan, pointing at the specks of light and spoke, "Master, these light points can be connected to form lines."
"Connect them into lines? How so?" Ethan asked, his curiosity piqued.
"Master, why don''t you try using Pyro Magic and Cryo Magic?" Aneropo suggested once again.
Ethan swung his arm and chanted a spell, causing a fireball to appear in the air.
The fireball floated aimlessly until it touched one of the light points.
It was as if the fireball had hopped onto a roller coaster, swiftly traveling along a path, passing through the light points.
The fireball traversed through numerous light points, akin to an artist using mes as a brush, painting within the valley.
Soon, a pictureposed entirely of fire emerged throughout the entire valley.
The pattern was intricate and regal, dizzying anyone whoid their eyes upon it.
Ethan, upon witnessing this scene, eximed in awe, "Aren''t these the Language of Nature?"
