"This won't do—the Frost Barrier."
"Hehehe, here comes a bomb, you guys don't mind, right? — Mental Blast!"
Loki was enveloped in thick ice, and the chilling aura caused frost to form on Chang Yan's skin. Then, a mental bomb exploded.
"You weaklings! You think these tricks can stop me? Today I've said it before, whoever I want to kill, no one can stop me!"
The fierce arm slammed straight at Loki, shattering the barrier with a single punch, and then Chang Yan pierced through Loki's heart.
"Die!"
"How could I possibly die at the hands of a mere mortal—!"
(Triggering side quest - Unique Reward Standard, grants 1 Wondrous Summoning Attempt)
"Ouch——"
Upon witnessing Loki's death, Fenrir unsurprisingly went berserk, nearly biting through the distance barrier of the illusory mist.
Then it immediately pulled its head back in.
Tch, almost there.
"Loki is dead just like that? As long as Fenrir is still alive, let's continue the operation."
"Hehehe, everyone, the banquet is about to begin!"
"—"
One by one, people dressed in religious attire emerged, their faces and figures concealed by robes, yet an eerie aura emanated from them.
The brain is trembling.
Reason is screaming.
The eyes are screaming.
The will is in fear.
They don't want to see the "truth"!
Chang Yan lowered his head quietly, because he wanted to laugh.
"Hmph, hmph, hmph, hahahahaha! Great, great! You bunch of troublemaking lunatics have finally all come out! I'm so happy I want to rip my own heart out and crush it for fun! Hahaha, very good, very good, yes, that's it! All of you have come out, and one by one—"
"Tear it all to pieces! Hahahaha!"
The demon raised its head, breathing in the filthy air of the human world, and let out a joyful, maniacal laugh.
"But before that, let's deal with this annoying dog first!"
"Witness my might here—the interplay of light and shadow, the composite radiance!"
The spear of divine punishment descended from the sky once more.
The Pillar of Shadows has returned to the world.
Chapter 265 Blood of the Styx
"Ow—"
The shocking scene unfolded once again; what was seen in the video was vastly different from the actual scene.
Even a behemoth like Fenrir was held back by the Pillar of Shadow, and then the Spear of Divine Punishment clashed with it.
The beast's shrill screams revealed its pain, but it was, after all, a divine beast that had slain a god, so this attack did not kill it.
And at the same time——
The shadow beneath him instantly transformed into a gaping maw of hunger, like a crocodile lurking in a river, its jaws snapping open to tear apart its unfortunate prey before swallowing it whole.
This scene unfolded behind each cult member. While some reacted in time, others were swallowed whole by the shadowy monster.
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
Strange chewing sounds came from the shadows on the ground, sending chills down the spines of even the cultists.
"Oh my god, you scared me to death! Where's your little darling Naiko?"
"Shut up! Prepare for battle, reinforcements are here."
Suddenly, a thick fog quietly enveloped the area. Sensing the sealing power inherent in the fog, Chang Yan smiled disdainfully.
You want to seal me away? With a mere God-Slaying Tool that doesn't even reach the level of a forbidden technique? What a joke!
God-Destroying Tool - Obliteration Mist.
The owner is Geork of the Heroic Faction of the Calamity Clan, a descendant of Faust who made a pact with the legendary demon Mephisto Feleus.
The ability of the Fog-Slaying ability is to infinitely spread spiritual energy around the holder, which can seal any object that enters it, and even send it to another dimension.
Overall, the God-Slaying Tool is very suitable for group battles, but against more skilled opponents, it only serves as a minor distraction.
Unfortunately, I, Chang, am one of those awesome people!
Have the members of the Calamity Gang's Hero Faction arrived...?
A group of cultists, shrouded in mist, bypassed Chang Yan and attacked the bystanders in the back. Meanwhile, several more figures appeared beside Fenrir, who was severely injured in the distance.
"He was seriously injured, but thankfully he didn't die."
A blond youth approached Fenrir, examined him for a moment, then pulled out a golden sword and plunged it directly into Fenrir's skull. After sensing a strange connection, he couldn't help but remark in praise:
"Truly worthy of being the ultimate sword of kings, the holy sword of domination!"
After drawing the holy sword, Fenrir's enormous body gradually shrank until it became as small as a puppy, circling around Arthur (the last descendant of King Arthur).
"Sorry Loki, all we wanted was Fenrir. Well, you probably can't hear me now anyway. Alright, I'm going to find the current Red Dragon Emperor. Black Song, you go find your fangirls too."
WALL-E arrived here under the cover of mist at some point. After saying a few words, he spread his White Dragon Emperor Wings and flew towards the direction where Hyoudou Issei was.
Meanwhile, a glamorous black-haired cat-eared girl giggled, transformed into a black cat, and followed WALL-E in the direction he had left.
"Then what about over there? Just leave them be?"
Looking at the two cult high priests fighting Chang Yan nearby, the Monkey King asked a few people around him. As a demon monkey who inherited the bloodline of the Fighting Buddha Sun Wukong, he also inherited Sun Wukong's mischievous heart.
"Helping them release the fog is already generous enough. Although they are a terrorist organization, we don't want to get involved with cult lunatics. Let's retreat as soon as WALL-E and Black Song return. Anyway, we've got Fenrir."
"hiss--"
A massive, intertwined tentacle transformed into a long whip, which, manipulated by a group of cult members, slammed into Chang Yan with a whooshing sound.
"Hmph~ Good timing!"
With a strange laugh, he advanced instead of retreating, shattering the ground beneath his feet as he delivered a powerful punch.
He chose to confront this "long whip" head-on.
"boom--"
The fist struck the whip, producing a dull thud of flesh colliding.
"Turn to dust!"
After being punched by Chang Yan, the tentacles seemed to sense something was wrong. They flew around wildly in the air and then turned into black and white particles.
I am the nemesis of tentacles!
"Damn it, is this guy immune to magic? I threw over a dozen spells at him, and he's completely unharmed."
The priest next to Yuukawa Naoko looked extremely grim. How was she supposed to fight a monster that was immune to magic and could be killed instantly?
Piloting a Gundam? Looks like it'll just get smashed to scrap metal anyway...
"There's no other way. I'll go get help. Only a monster can kill another monster."
"Hey, Naoko, who are you calling? You, you actually went behind my back to see another man, *crying*!"
"Shut up, you old bastard! You're just a vampire whose wife and children have been torn apart and whose family has been destroyed. The reward is nothing more than a device that can locate your bloodline across space."
After several followers sacrificed their lives to summon several ethereal mythical creatures, they finally managed to hold off Chang Yan. Yu Chuan Naoko also sped up, and as a portal opened, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man with a depressed expression walked out.
Yuukawa Naoko didn't waste any time and hurriedly spoke up, probably afraid that this jerk would disgust the helper she had invited away.
"Mr. Yang, please hold off that monster. Kill it if you can, and just hold it off if you can't. The locator you requested will be ready in a day. Although we are a cult, please don't mistake us, the Light of Truth, for other cults. We always keep our word."
"Just stalling me is enough... Okay, by the way, the memory device you gave me last time was quite useful, although it broke down after I remembered my name. But I'm used to my current name, so remember to get me a few more."
Recalling a name and you're rendered useless? Just how far have your memories been sealed?
"Okay, let's settle the payment together."
"Okay, I'll go then."
There was no need to inquire about Chang Yan's abilities and fighting style.
He is unlikely to die.
And his death was even more terrifying.
A red and black bat wing unfolded behind him.
"Come on, young man, try and punish me!"
He tore open his chest, and countless drops of blood flowed out, but the blood that flowed out was blackish-red.
"Ha, a vampire? Wait, this is the aura of death... Wow, I didn't expect someone would dare to mix the waters of the River Styx with their own blood. But judging from your appearance, you're probably not one of those cult lunatics, are you?"
After smashing a star spirit beside him, Chang Yan looked at the depressed vampire uncle.
His blood can be considered a branch of the River Styx.
"I'm just a homeless, pathetic person."
Chapter 266 I Am Undefeated
(I downloaded Honkai Impact 2 out of boredom. Yeah, my pro friend can one-shot this guy, but I couldn't kill him even after I ran out of ammo. *crying* o(╥﹏╥)o)
(Although I've gotten several orange-tier equipment items, I can't evolve them without the materials. Without evolution, I'm completely powerless, and because I can't evolve them, I can't beat the material stages... I'm stuck...)
--------
"Since you're so confident, then I'll—"
"We must treat you well!"
Before the words had even finished, Chang Yan's steps seemed to cover the distance, and in less than a second he appeared in front of the vampire uncle, his hands piercing through his chest, holding a red and black heart that was throbbing.
"Such speed! But it's just a heart. Don't compare me to ordinary vampires!"
The blood and heart on his back burst forth with countless sharp spikes, trying to pierce Chang Yan's body and hands, but these spikes were stuck in an invisible barrier and could not be penetrated.
"Die!"
With a sinister smile, the uncle vampire's body and heart were gradually broken down into black and white particles. Seeing this, the uncle seemed surprised, but showed no fear or panic.
The man's body gradually decomposed, but the blood of the Styx continued to flow, tempting life to its depravity.
"My body is gradually disintegrating... This is the first time I've ever experienced death like this. If you want to kill me completely, this isn't enough, boy."
The man slowly emerged from the River Styx, the remaining liquid on his body transforming into a simple set of clothes. His face still bore that depressed expression, as if he were about to commit suicide at any moment.
"Such powerful immortality... But more than that, I'm concerned about the River Styx. Even the true progenitor of vampires would find it difficult to fuse the River Styx with their own blood."
Looking at the liquid that had quietly flowed to his feet, Chang Yan originally wanted to stomp on it, but after thinking about it, he withdrew his foot.
If my shoes get corroded, I'll have to fight barefoot.
"Tsk, what an annoying opponent."
Chang Yan clicked his tongue. This guy was really annoying because he couldn't be killed no matter what. In order to take into account the plot later on, he had only used a substitute, the power of his body and shadows so far. He hadn't even summoned the Lord of Darkness.
"Fine, let you fight my double. Since those cultists dared to attack this place, they must have some trump cards to deal with those big shots. Hmph, as the saying goes, it's better to give help in times of need than to add flowers to brocade. Let them suffer some casualties first before I go out and reap the rewards."
After summoning the illusory mist, Chang Yan's figure vanished into the thick fog.
