Soul of Burning Steel

Without any time to think about other things, when Joshua saw the artifact sword that had appeared on the abyss battlefield and wiped out the entire Burning Blade demon army with one blow, the attack was already unavoidable.

The reason why he couldn't dodge wasn't karma or fate, nor was it locked by Qi. The attack range of the Cinder Sword was too wide. Before the opponent's corona-like energy flow gathered, the warrior couldn't leave the opponent's aiming range at all.

After all, this is the 'Sword of the Earth' that claims to be able to reshape the surface of the earth and return the mountains to the plains of ashes!

When its sword pointed at Joshua, the energy condensed, the space vibrated, and an inexplicable phantom appeared over the entire western part of the holy mountain—the burning earth, the erupting volcano, the field covered by lava, and all kinds of things that filled the world when the world was born. The illusion of the wild atmosphere flashed by, making the air scorching hot, and countless sparks turned into rain.

The terrifying coercion spread in all directions, and countless flying dragons wailed and fell from the sky. Even the other giant dragons that were fighting with the ultimate priests could not help but shudder, and the paladins and priests also shuddered. Similarly, they stopped attacking at the same time, and turned their heads to look at the simple and unpretentious long sword in midair.

Evian's face was pale, he could feel his own magic power, his own life, his blood and soul were being absorbed endlessly by this terrifying long sword, if it was the heyday of his dragon form, it might just be a serious illness , but now, the red dragon smells that death is approaching.

But so what—

The ferocity lurking in the depths of the blood was aroused, and Evian's eyes were burning with golden-red fire. The red dragon tore up the soul and magic power and sent them to the long sword in his hand without hesitation, no longer caring about his own life.

Death is never terrible, what is terrible is that living is worthless, the life of a red dragon should be like fire, like a volcano, and when it erupts it is the last glory.

He wants that human to die before him!

"Joshua, return to nothingness with me—"

The last roar of the red dragon came to an abrupt end, and his humanoid body turned into nothingness with a wave of magic light, and returned to the body of a giant dragon with scars, and the body of this red dragon quickly turned gray, and then turned into Evian, who was full of dust and burned everything up, completely disappeared from this world.

And the long sword of embers was suspended in the air, and the tip of the sword was shining.

Under the crisis of life and death, Joshua didn't talk nonsense, and all the fighting spirit gathered in his heart. He knew that it was a matter of life and death. If he couldn't stop this blow, he would die like a red dragon.

Boom!

The heart beating, thunder roaring, all the latent power in the body erupted instantly, the warrior's chest swelled rapidly, he raised his arms to cross his head, and the surging life energy was compressed and transported to the whole body with the heart as the core, and finally gathered On the arms that have turned into golden iron and steel armor, you can see the blue veins are tense, the muscles are knotted, and the stance shield formed by the condensed fighting spirit has become the essence, and the cyan light of order is transformed under the operation of the azure orb. Forming a film of light, the flickering runes mixed with divine bones enveloped the warrior's whole body and the weapons in his hands.

At the same time, a little bit of inspiration that I had just learned from the self-explosion of the Fusion Star was also rapidly stimulated—a golden-red hot fireball was rapidly condensing in front of the warrior's crossed arms, and the life energy that changed reality was impacted by high temperature. Simulating the power of the sun, fighting energy poured into it like a torrent.

In the next instant, above the sky, the scorching heat from the center of the earth spread.

Including the remaining ashes of the red dragon, the dust in the air was ignited, and the sky was covered with flames like stars, and then turned into a mighty vortex, all of which returned to one place and condensed into a beam of light.

At this moment, the entire holy mountain battlefield seemed to be static, and every living and soulful existence had a throbbing in their hearts. It was the shock of witnessing incredible power. They raised their heads and looked at the sky, powerful The energy even changed the celestial phenomenon of this piece of sky, the clouds collapsed into rain, the sun suddenly dimmed, the day turned into the night sky, and the sky was filled with stars.

I saw a red star shining among the starlight in the sky, it quickly fell and enlarged, turned into a beam of light penetrating the sky, and fell on the lava land.

The countless dou qi shields and stances built by the soldiers were shattered in front of this incomparably pure red beam of light. Rather, it is quite remarkable that the defense constructed by one person can actually resist this kind of power. But it all boils down to being useless. The red light fell, and the black figure seemed to be roaring. He swung the huge sword in his hand, as if he wanted to split something, but was immediately swallowed by the light.

it's over.

This is the thinking of all people and dragons. Under such a blow, no one under the legend can survive. This is a blow that moves mountains and mountains. Crushed into a plain, no matter how strong Joshua was, he would be sent to eternal sleep by the life-burning blow of the red dragon.

Rumble rumble rumble! ! ! ! !

The endless shock wave spread, and the entire lava area of ​​the crater bulged suddenly under the impact, as if it was raised several times in an instant, but it turned into burning ashes under the impact of extremely powerful energy in an instant.

But an unexpected scene happened——after this earth-shattering roar, an explosion sounded slightly lower than it, and the beam of light that was falling vertically was tilted a little because of the violent explosion , under the impact of the incomparably powerful energy flow, this little bit immediately turned into a non-negligible error, the crimson beam of light kept shaking, and finally slanted towards the distant tide.

With the movement of the beam of light, the ground shattered, rumbled and roared from the west of the holy mountain, and the ground sank several feet in an instant. A huge sword-scarred rift made of lava started from the crater and spread towards the far sea like a straight line. After more than ten kilometers, the sea tide separated left and right and turned into two parallel waterfalls. The hurricane stopped and the sky was cloudless.

In mid-air, the black long sword shattered into pieces and turned into smoke and dust. The imitation artifact long sword only had the power of one blow, and after one blow, it returned to the ground.

The liquid lava was lifted into the air by the terrifying shock wave, and fell straight down like rain. The high-heat rock steam mixed with endless white water mist, turned into a tornado in an instant, covering the entire western sea area, and the entire Ada Gray Island was violently Shaking, the earth cracked huge cracks.

Although the magical circuits in the temple area were affected by such vibrations, they still functioned stably. Layers of pale golden shields of holy light rose to block most of the lava rain and shock waves, but the vertical and horizontal cracks It wasn't something they could stop. Many temples were temporarily paralyzed because of these cracks, allowing the black-gold high-temperature magma to overwhelm the sky and cover the sky.

However, the other flying dragons present did not have this kind of defense. Most of the flying dragons and giant dragons near the battlefield were blown away by the violent shock wave. A dragon over 20 meters long is no better than a fly under this kind of force. How much, the entire west of the island and the surrounding dragon army were wiped out almost instantly, and were completely burned to wreckage by the lava rain.

This war was temporarily stopped, and all the giant dragons of extreme intent who were fighting with the priests of the holy mountain immediately got rid of their opponents, and they hurried back to rescue those giant dragons that were swept away by the aftermath of the long sword of ember. It is rare, and the adult dragons who participated in the war are the backbone of the clan. They cannot allow these seeds to die meaninglessly like this.

And the priests headed by Robzek have no intention of continuing to fight with the dragon. The lives of the dragons are precious, and the priests in the holy mountain are the same. go.

With such power, if it is waved at the holy mountain... it only needs one blow to destroy the entire defense line in the west direction, right?

But there was a light golden light flying out of a temple, and the center of the beam of light descended, and the area that had become a lava lake flew rapidly.

Lolanda frowned, neither the clergyman nor the giant dragon had time to attend to him at this moment, they were busy helping their own members. They seemed to acquiesce in Joshua's death, but the blond paladin didn't think so. He was keenly aware of the process of condensing the energy of the embers long sword until the beam of light fell down. At the moment when the beam of light actually hit the crater, A force that made him feel familiar exploded in an instant, pushing the beam of light away a little bit abruptly.

If it was a direct attack from the divine weapon, even Lolanda would not doubt Joshua's death, but since it deviated, the paladin would never believe that the warrior who could survive the direct attack of the evil god of natural disasters would die here kind of place!

Never will!

In the blink of an eye, Lolanda had arrived at the original crater, and above the lava lake, the astonishing scorching heat was still spreading, and the aftermath of terrifying energy fluctuations oscillated back and forth in this place, hitting the holy light shield on the first body of the paladin. The banging. He lowered his head and scanned the surging magma with his eyes, as if trying to see through the existence behind him.

A moment later, the paladin looked shocked and delighted.

At the same time, rays of light burst out from the surface of the lava, the liquid rock seemed to be pushed away by some force, and a black shadow shrouded in a hazy mask emerged from it.

A giant dragon at the extreme level saw this scene. It let out a breath and almost suffocated on the spot without taking a breath. After recovering, the white dragon suddenly let out a surprised and angry roar: "It's not dead!" ?!"

"How could he not die?!"

Joshua is indeed not dead.

He held a big silver sword in his hand, maintaining a posture of splitting something, and the face of the giant ax was tilted on his chest, blocking part of the power. The warrior seemed to be roaring at this moment, and burning sparks spurted out from his mouth, turning into a The rushing air current declared his survival.

As early as when the Fusion Star blew itself up, the warrior's clothes turned into fly ash, leaving only the armor formed by fighting spirit as a cover. At this time, the fighting spirit wrapped around his body was almost gone, almost completely disappearing. The surface of the body is also full of cracks burning with sparks like burning charcoal, and the blood has been burned dry.

But no matter how embarrassing he was, Joshua did not die, and he still held the weapon in his hand tightly.

Muscles were scorched, eyes were turned into coke, bones could be seen on both arms, and divine runes flowed on them. The outer skin of the warrior had already been vaporized under the high-temperature explosion, and most of the flesh and blood had disappeared. .

Even with the vitality of a warrior, it is coming to an end at this time. The Azure Orb at the heart flickers on and off, releasing a dim light. The continuous high-speed regeneration exceeds its load limit for a while, and it is about to strike.

But Joshua is still alive.

That trumps everything.

"Want to take me with you?"

Fighting Qi replaced the throat, shaking the atmosphere. Joshua had turned into a pair of deep-socketed eyes that still shone with black-red fighting energy. He raised his head and 'stared' at the sky, as if he was laughing.

"You are not qualified!"

After the Cinder Sword issued a blow, Joshua simply and neatly split the light ball suspended in front of him, which he used to simulate the self-explosion of the fusion core star.

Two close encounters, one use, one experience, the warrior is already very familiar with the power of Fusion Star, but even so, this light ball is still very unstable, but it just so happens that what Joshua wants is instability, Firefly's incarnation's divine machine struck out with a sword, and the restless fireball exploded immediately, forming an explosion that was more violent than the fusion star that Evian blew himself up before.

The energy of the geometric multiple reaction surpassed the warrior's control ability in an instant, and hit the divine weapon that descended from the top of his head.

There is no doubt that even such a powerful self-detonation cannot compete with the blow from the red dragon's exhausted life-activating artifact, but it has slightly tilted this unparalleled power just like the reactive armor self-exploding and resisting armor-piercing projectiles. a little--

In the end, Joshua only endured a small part of the direct impact from the divine weapon. Most of his miserable appearance is caused by his self-explosive energy.

The paladin rushed to the warrior's side, and Lolanda supported the warrior's shoulders neatly, and quickly took him away from the lava field. In the next second, the furious attack from the dragon's side had descended on the lava lake, as if The aurora descended on the earth, and countless spells of all kinds almost blew up the huge magma lake nearly a kilometer in size, and a new round of lava rain fell.

When Robzek and the others saw Joshua who was still alive, they were also so shocked that they almost lost their ability to think. Even he, who had seen warriors resist all kinds of powerful spell attacks from Mandagar, couldn't believe that Joshua could survive in such a desperate situation. Surviving this is simply unbelievable, a miracle of miracles!

But no matter how surprised, after seeing Lolanda helping Joshua fly to the temple area, the silver-haired paladin immediately led the other extreme-level priests to guard without saying a word, and the dragons had no ability to resist the attack The surface of the earth is indeed powerful, but under the defense of the overlapping holy light of resonance, there can only be circles of ripples. When the holy light guarding the soldiers enters the central area of ​​the holy mountain, no matter how unwilling the dragons can only Angrily stop attacking.

At this time, the soldier's condition was very bad.

The thunderous heartbeat is gradually weakening, the fiery thoughts are cooling down, and the spirit is like falling into the abyss, and the darkness is oppressing rapidly. Except for the heart and brain, all the flesh and blood of the whole body were completely scorched. Even the Azure Orb would need several hours for this kind of injury to start from scratch and initially regenerate the flesh and blood that can basically sustain life. Now Joshua is almost That's all for a few hours.

He won't survive five minutes.

Moved into the most solemn hall of the underground fortress of the holy mountain, Joshua was placed on the stone slab in the center of the temple, surrounded by more than four high priests of the ultimate level, and the healing light was injected into the warrior's body one after another. Inside his body, he was urging the regeneration of flesh and blood—but at this moment, there was no active flesh and blood in his body, and the surging power of the holy light could barely keep the warrior alive.

At this time, in the center of this magnificent and ancient underground hall, the black coke-like body became as bright as a black gemstone under the infusion of holy light, and there was even residual firepower discharged, forming light patterns like embers. Although the appearance is gorgeous, with a trace of tragic beauty, but there is no breath of life.

"That does not work!"

In the center of the square majestic hall, the dean of the White Rose Monastery, Sister Besana, frowned. The kind-faced old woman had a hint of anxiety in her voice: "Holy light can regenerate flesh and blood, and reshape vitality. Based on the fact that the subject still has a good body and does not resist, Earl Radcliffe only has the heart still alive, but that is his energy center, even if he allows it, we can't introduce the holy light into it at all !"

"At this time, pure life energy injection is needed, holy light is not enough!"

Another ultimate-level cleric, Priest Garcia, who was injured by the legendary dragon's surprise attack, responded immediately. This old man with dwarf blood remained calm and quick-thinking: "A heart of terror, or yes……"

"Your Excellency, Teacher of Nature, this warrior is the key to your ability to find the Father of Nature."

Suddenly, behind all the extremely strong men, there came a somewhat erratic old man's voice.

Lolanda, who had been watching from the sidelines, turned around to look, and then her eyes widened suddenly: "Godfather... His Holiness the Pope?!"

On the wall of the main hall, in front of those exquisite murals and reliefs, two hazy figures seemed to condense from a very far distance, and the powerful energy rays emitted from them even illuminated the dome.

Pope Eagle's body at this time was composed of a misty mist of holy light. He seemed to be temporarily distracted here, so facing the shocked eyes of everyone, he just smiled slightly, and then disappeared without a sound. Beside him is a beautiful elf lady made of green natural energy.

This lady was wearing clothes made of grass leaves and a crown of green oak leaves. After the phantom of Pope Eagle's holy light disappeared, she walked towards Joshua's position. The strong man backed away subconsciously, making way for the lady respectfully.

Because that is the leader of the elves, the Great Drew, the teacher of the way of nature, and one of the leaders of all the elves in the world.

"It's still alive like this..."

Approaching the warrior, seeing Joshua's state at this time, the natural instructor couldn't help but let out a soft sigh, she shook her head, and then smiled helplessly: "Igel called me to deal with the five-color dragon with one sentence, now You want me to save someone again..."

"Forget it, if you are really what he said, it is the key to finding God the Father..."

So far, the elf lady took out a ball of light shining with warm green light from nowhere, and in the center of the light ball floated a small piece of crystal clear translucent substance, which was like crystal, with a texture of But compared with ore, it is less rigid and more soft, and it is filled with an incomparably strong breath of life.

"The heart of the tree of life!"

Everyone present was amazed at once, but the natural teacher was not affected by this amazement, she came to the soldier, and without the slightest hesitation, pressed the heart of the tree to Joshua's heart.

Green light flashes.

The heavy heartbeat resounded throughout the hall again.
