Soul of Burning Steel

Along with the ground, the energy flow of the two powerhouses gradually weakened, the raging storm slowly subsided, and freezing rain, ice and snow quietly descended on the Moldovan territory in the middle of the night.

On the banks of the Mai Zhe Unfrozen River, in the center of the huge disc-shaped depression, Joshua suppressed Herras. He held his own arm bone and inserted it in the center of the chest of the high priest of the cult. The warrior looked calm and indifferent. There is no excitement after defeating a strong enemy, but a trace of regret.

At this time, the vitality around the two of them has completely converged back into their bodies, and they are no longer radiating terrifying energy to the outside world. As a result, the icy river water began to pour back into the depression, covering the place where the two of them were with ice water, but whether it was He Neither Erras nor Joshua cared about this, they just stalemate in the gradually deepening river, waiting for the final moment to come.

Of course Herras is not dead.

The vitality of the high priest of the cult was so strong that it even surpassed some legendary powerhouses. Even after experiencing the impact of the power of order, the erosion of Joshua's vitality, and the suppression of the warrior's divinity, his vitality did not stop resisting. Now, with Herras's body as the battlefield, two completely different but equally aggressive and erosive life forces are fighting. fighting each other around.

But Herras is at an absolute disadvantage.

Because he was too greedy, he took the initiative to absorb the power of order and the carefully prepared life energy in Joshua's body, and he acted first and then later, causing great disadvantages. If the opponent is an ordinary fighter, this disadvantage is not irreparable, but his opponent is Joshua, and the life energy level of the two is at the same level. Yes, then he can't recover the disadvantage now.

This is no longer a question of whether the vitality is strong or not. The vitality of the warrior is like an extremely active cancer cell, which erodes crazily and assimilates the vitality of Herras. Joshua is as old and even weaker. This is not an incarnation that can be given up at will, but the body of Herras in the plague world. If this body is eliminated, it means that the existence of 'Herras' Total death.

"You want to be the will of a world."

At the bottom of the icy river, Joshua suddenly said, layers of sound waves pierced through the river and reached Herras' ears: "The human form walking on the Mycroft Continent is just your mouthpiece for devouring life force, and the plague world is your mouthpiece." body, and your body is their brain."

"This is your path to advanced legend. Incarnate in a small world, occupy the outside of the world, absorb the life and quality of it bit by bit, and finally become a real [Void Behemoth]. I will take your body from Playing it in your subspace is the only possibility to kill you."

The soldier's words were so decisive, as if he had seen through all the secrets of Herras. After hearing this, the high priest of the cult was silent for a long time, and then suddenly laughed.

Herras' wrinkled face was already like cracked porcelain, and some fragments fell off from time to time. They were the wreckage of countless two forces fighting each other. It was full of life force without an owner. Between the icy river water, pale light is released, causing countless algae and microorganisms in the river to scramble. In just a few seconds, large pieces of dark green algae appear out of thin air. They are extremely strong, even at minus ten degrees Celsius The low temperature can't kill them.

"You are right. Incarnation of a giant beast wandering in the world, this is my path."

The high priest of the cult did not stop resisting, his vitality was still fighting fiercely with the warriors, red sparks splashed out from the cracks in his body from time to time, it was Joshua's expelled vitality, but even This is the case, but his tone is very relaxed: "The Mycroft Continent is dead, and I can see its destruction... The future of the religious order cannot be entrusted to this doomed world. I want to think about their future." .”

At this time, Herras did seem to have the aura to lead a huge cult group, he stared at Joshua's red eyes, which seemed to be burning with flames, and asked in a curious tone: "Then what about you? Mighty warrior, what is your path? Has the battle with me made you find your way to legend?"

Because of Herras' words, Joshua was silent for a while.

Destiny legend.

The topmost layer of Mycroft's world, a god who walks in the world.

Creatures who have reached this stage are enough to be called gods in ancient times. They can call wind and rain at will, move mountains and fill seas, and fight with each other can easily change the terrain of the country. The battle of multiple legendary powerhouses, It can even shake the foundation of the continent, make the sea furious, and overthrow all living beings.

How easy is it to become a legend? The induction and control energy of the black iron rank, the strengthening of the soul and energy refinement of the silver rank, the power of self-understanding of the gold rank, the extraordinary first step, and the ultimate breakthrough of all limits, all are just to lay the foundation for advanced legends, As long as the foundation is a little bit unreliable, then it can only stop forever.

"Legend is to completely change the form of life and become a further existence."

After a long time, the soldier slowly opened his mouth and said, his expression was serious, as if he was thinking seriously: "I have seen several legendary strong men, and their paths are all amazing, whether it is incarnation of the holy light, the realization of the will, or the self-improvement This is true of nature, or you who want to become a giant beast of the world, you want to transcend the world's shackles on 'life' and become an immortal 'existence'."

From life, advanced to existence, this is the dividing line between extreme intention and legend. No matter how powerful extreme intention is, it is life, and legend is no longer pure life. They can even be said to be a certain phenomenon, a certain A master of power.

"Herras, your advanced direction actually has many overlaps with mine. The battle with you has taught me a lot. The cohesion of the power of steel is a big step closer to success."

Joshua held the palm of the arm bone, and tightened it again, black and red lines emerged, and the light flickered, arousing a trace of divine power, suppressing Herras, who set off another wave of resistance, and the soldier's face Covered in the red light, he couldn't see his expression clearly: "You are indeed a good opponent."

But having said that, he shook his head, his tone full of regret.

"But your path is not my path. The direction for me to become a legend does not depend on you."

At this time, the vitality of the two had been stimulated to the limit. Herlas' life energy could turn into a ball of pale light in his body, while Joshua's life force had condensed into a ball of black fire. Now the fire surrounded the ball of light, Like a group of ravenous hungry wolves, they bit off pieces bit by bit, and the loss of each piece made the flame more vigorous and the light ball dimmed.

Of course, Herras could transform into countless fragments of spore mist to escape Joshua's suppression, but such a move can only be said to be suicide in the face of an equally powerful life force controller. Only by condensing the self into the core can it be forced Resist the opponent's devouring.

The countercurrent of vitality caused the wrinkles on the warrior's face to gradually disappear and return to its original state, leaving only the gray hair that did not recover. Joshua sensed that the high priest of the cult under him was getting weaker and weaker, but the other party's vitality was also getting weaker and weaker. The condensed, black flames have been difficult to tear off pieces from the light sphere, and can only burn on its outer shell in vain.

And Herras didn't have the energy to continue talking—his soul dwelled in the center of the life force core, surrounded by black flames, and the warrior's soul-depriving power was always affecting his spirit, making Herras dare not relax at all .

"It's over, Herras."

Having reached the last step, Joshua raised his head and looked at the surface of the icy river. He raised his left hand, and a gray light flew out of thin air, piercing through the thick ice water and algae. The dragon-hunting sword and gun came to the warrior's hands following the master's call.

"Die."

The next moment, Joshua held the sword and spear in his hand, and pierced Herras' life core neatly.

The high priest of the cult originally had no life core. His body is actually the plague world outside the world. There is no need to condense the core as the body of the brain and the incarnation of the mouthparts. As long as the soul is immortal, he will not die. Even if it is temporarily eliminated, it can be reborn with the help of the plague world.

But now, in order to resist Joshua's ferocious, cancer-like erosion, Herras had to condense his own life core to fight against it, but this was just drinking poison to quench his thirst. Hit to pieces.

The pale ball of light instantly disintegrated into countless fragments, and Herras' body was also shattered in an instant.

The High Priest of the Plague Cult, who had been in Xishan for decades, died silently on the banks of the Mai Zhe Unfrozen River, but Herras did not stop resisting even before his death.

As he said, life is like this, fighting each other, devouring each other, selfish like a plague to the point of killing other life in order to survive.

The enormous vitality spreads in all directions. Looking down from a high altitude, it seems to be a huge white ring expanding rapidly. When the halo arrives, the Moldovan territory, which has become dead due to the battle between the two, comes back to life. , the river is clean, the air is fresh, and among the ashes of the forest that was destroyed by the aftermath, there are also new shoots.

The wave of vitality that can only be described as terrifying has even caused all kinds of wonderful changes in other surviving creatures around. In just a few seconds, the brown algae in the river seem to have crossed the evolutionary process of thousands of years and become Fearless of frost and cold, it can even absorb free energy between heaven and earth. Complicated life like insects, trees, and beasts, although they haven't changed much under the radiation of life, but the power accumulated in their bodies makes their offspring definitely have far stronger power than their parents. Several newborn monsters The embryonic form of the race has been born.

Of course, most of the vitality was absorbed by the nearest Joshua. Even though the vitality of Herras had been consumed more than half during the battle with the warriors, the vitality obtained by Joshua had already made his own vitality reserve It has become more than doubled than before, and the excessive life fluctuations can no longer be suppressed, following the heartbeat of the soldiers and spreading towards the outside world.

So he closed his eyes and just stayed at the bottom of the cold, unfrozen river, controlling these newly acquired vitality bit by bit with his own will.

But for some reason, the originally stable system trembled under Joshua's gaze, as if the blurred snowflakes of a bad signal covered the second half of the attribute list, causing a sudden refresh of the system afterwards. A large string of text is covered and cannot be read clearly.

Even with Joshua's power of observation, he could barely make out a few scattered words in just a few seconds.

The vibration of the system didn't stop until the long string of texts ended, and the previously refreshed texts disappeared completely.
