Chapter 1186: Passing Through Space
Nightdemon''s eyes widened. He had personally witnessed the catastrophic effect of this technique on the death spirit king.
He hurriedly pped his wings to draw some distance between them as he waited for the Shining Trapezohedron to regain functionality.
However, he btedly realized that Zhang Lie''s serpents had filled the entire hall. The explosion of a hundred blood dragons released more energy than a superior world possessed, and it would take quite some time for the relic to work again.
Nightdemon had no choice but to charge at the serpents in his path and clear a route forward, pping his wings and burning them with beams of energy from his eyes as he tore at them with his ws.
The spirit serpents weren''t living creatures, and they weren''t affected by Nightdemon''s innate aura of fear. To him, they were certainly among the most troublesome ss of opponents.
The serpents came in a massive drove. As Nightdemon killed one, it would respawn from the sea of ck gic energy. Countless serpents bit and tore at Nightdemon''s wings, their fangs filled with corrosive gic energy. Nightdemon''s wings grew pockmarked within an instant.
Just then, finally, the Shining Trapezohedron regained its functionality. Overjoyed, Nightdemon activated it immediately and caught all the serpents within.
"[The Boundless de: Dragon''s Wrath]!"
Zhang Lie thrust forward with Guicang, summoning a blood dragon. The blood dragon''s howls shook heaven and earth, and Zhang Lie''s attack shot toward Nightdemon.
Nightdemon immediately activated the Shining Trapezohedron once more and formed a spatial barrier in front of him.
The blood dragon prated the barriers and charged straight at him, but by then, he had already hidden within a dimensional fold.
"[First Form: Parting the River]!"
A frightening force descended on Nightdemon, energy rumbling and rippling around him. As Zhang Lie swung the de in his hand, a huge sh of sword energy shot toward him.
Thisyer of space, along with the subsequent sixyers, were all crushed by Zhang Lie''s technique. Nightdemon, scared by the ferocity of the attack, hurriedly emerged from hiding—behind Zhang Lie.
The Shining Trapezohedron let out a bright glow as Zhang Lie tried to dodge, but the range of the attack was toorge for him to do so. In the end, he was caught by the relic and forced into the Shining Trapezohedron, where he saw 24 ovepping regions of space. Each region was about the size of a superior world, and the horizon couldn''t be seen. The ovepping nature of the space within meant that it was nearly impossible to escape. Wherever he flew, he would return to his original spot within moments.
If he were to fly to his left, he might suddenly find himself in the region above him. Furthermore, the relic was like a Rubik''s cube that Nightdemon could manipte at will.
Nightdemon roared inughter. "Haha, Zhang Lie, I''ve finally caught you! I''ve won!"
"This match isn''t over yet."
Nightdemon taunted, "Oh? And what can you do from within the Shining Trapezohedron? Escape?"
"We''ll see, won''t we?"
A pitch-ck sun appeared behind Zhang Lie, and a blood moon by his feet. His aura was magnified tenfold, and a halo of ck sun appeared above his forehead. Naturalw seemed to warp around him. Runes likewise appeared on the bloody moon by his feet, forming an intricate array.
"[Syzygy]!"
Zhang Lie''s gic energy began to fluctuate wildly.
Zhang Lie crossed his twin des. The blood moon resonated with the de in his left hand, and the ck sun with the de in his right. He simultaneously shed forward with both des, forming a huge celestial web.
Thebination of the ck sun and blood moon destabilized the space within the relic.
Nightdemon''s eyes widened. "Impossible!"
"[des, Reverberate]!"
A blood dragon materialized around Zhang Lie. Energy poured out of him in waves, honing the edge of his de. The pulses of energy struck the realm like a tsunami, devouring everything within.
The twin des Guicang and Hanguang emitted a fearsome aura, shining as brightly as the sun and moon. Sword energy materialized from Guicang into a blood dragon that revolved around his body.
Hanguang''s light swept up all the serpents that had been caught within the Shining Trapezohedron and transformed them.
The de Hanguang morphed into a ck dragon, and the de Guicang into a blood dragon. The two dragons, coiling together as one, shot out toward Nightdemon like a hurricane, bearing down on him with the might of Zhang Lie''s spiritual sea between them.
Infused with the blood moon and the ck sun, the twin dragons formed a ck whirlpool.
The dragons shattered the interior of the Shining Trapezohedron, causing Nightdemon''s face to turn pale. He was extremely shocked.
Nothing had ever managed to escape from the prison of the Shining Trapezohedron, and the king of chaos himself had personally refined 24 disparate regions of space to create this relic.
In a matter of moments, however, Zhang Lie had smashed six of those regions to pieces, and a huge hole had been carved into the seventh. Moreover, his attack didn''t stop there—the other regions were in danger of being destroyed, as well. Even the king of chaos'' face was turning dark, and he barely hid his shock.
The Shining Trapezohedron, which even he had toiled over… Despite the fact that he had outgrown the relic, he was still sovereign within the third realm, and this relic had been particrly difficult to create even for him.
The king of chaos roared mentally to Nightdemon, "Enough! Let him out!"
If Nightdemon were to perish, he would be able to reverse time and revive him, but the Shining Trapezohedron would be far harder to restore.
Nightdemon instantly did as he was told—not just because of his main body''s shouts, but also because the destruction of the relic would swiftly lead to his destruction as well.
Nightdemon released Zhang Lie instantly, but Zhang Lie''s attack was still ongoing.
