boom!
Lu Ziming's spiritual light erupted wildly, and the long sword in his hand slashed out like lightning. A dazzling bolt of lightning seemed to appear between heaven and earth. The sword energy was hundreds of meters long, with intense light and a chilling aura. The burial ground was chilled by the light. The sword energy was as unpredictable as thunder and lightning, and it bombarded thousands of Fang Xiu like a thunderbolt from heaven.
Rumble—!
The sword energy, as powerful as a thunderbolt, instantly tore Fang Xiu apart completely. For a moment, the lightning was so intense that it seemed to engulf the entire Avici Hell.
What no one noticed was that after Lu Ziming unleashed this sword strike, the madness on his face vanished completely, replaced by an incomparably sinister look. He suddenly turned around, his figure disappearing from the spot in an instant, and thrust his long sword fiercely into an open space.
Pfft!
That was the sound of a sword blade piercing flesh.
As the longsword entered his body, Fang Xiu's figure slowly emerged.
"Got you!" Lu Ziming grinned sinisterly, then flicked his wrist, twirling his sword and ripping out Fang Xiu's heart.
Having succeeded in his attack, he grabbed the heart and retreated rapidly, instantly creating distance between himself and Fang Xiu. He wasn't stupid; he knew Fang Xiu was immortal, so he fled immediately after obtaining the heart, not giving Fang Xiu a chance to turn the tables.
"Hahaha..." Lu Ziming laughed wildly, staring greedily at the still-beating heart in his hand, his face beaming with a look of ecstasy bordering on madness!
"Finally! Finally!! We can leave the burial ground! Hahaha..."
He laughed maniacally, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment he had accumulated over the years.
"Fang Xiu! Do you really think I don't know where your true form is?" Lu Ziming said, absorbing the power of the Forbidden Heart in his heart while activating the "villain dies from talking too much" mode.
However, he was very shrewd. The reason he talked so much was not to show off, but to buy himself some time, since absorbing the power of the Forbidden Heart would take some time.
Fang Xiu stared at Lu Ziming, a huge emptiness in his heart, but he didn't care at all, quietly watching Lu Ziming perform.
"To tell you the truth, I was just acting! I knew where you were hiding all along. The reason I was willing to expend my spiritual energy just now was to lower your guard and use my sword energy to conceal my figure so that I could ambush you!"
I admit your illusion magic is very skillful, but you've forgotten one thing: the Heart of Forbidden Tricks!
We both possess the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts. I can use the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts to sense your location, hahaha..."
"Hehehe..." Suddenly, a ferocious laugh came from Fang Xiu's mouth, his violent eyes full of mockery.
"It's rare to find such a naive prey as you. Using the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts to sense location is such an obvious thing. Do you think you're the only one who knows it?"
"Hmph! Fang Xiu, stop bluffing. If you knew, you wouldn't have been ambushed by me." Lu Ziming sneered. He felt that he had the victory in his grasp. With the Heart of Forbidden Evil in hand, he could easily leave the burial ground soon.
"I'm just experimenting with my abilities."
"Experimental ability? What ability?" Lu Ziming pretended to change color and quickly asked in cooperation, but in his heart he kept sneering, "Fool, I'm about to finish absorbing the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts. Even if you have great abilities, you can't stop me."
It's utterly foolish not to act now and seize the Heart of Forbidden Demons.
The mocking look in Fang Xiu's eyes intensified: "Has the power of the Heart of Forbidden Demons been almost completely absorbed?"
Lu Ziming was initially startled and tried to stall for time, but then his face lit up with ecstasy. He suddenly grabbed Fang Xiu's heart and crushed it, feeling the spatial detachment from his body, and he was overjoyed.
"Hahaha... I can finally leave the burial site!" He laughed and laughed until tears streamed down his face, perfectly demonstrating what it means to cry tears of joy.
"Fang Xiu, whatever your plans are, the situation is now settled. You can stay in the burial ground and have some fun. I'm going to be my captain now! Hahaha..."
Amidst Lu Ziming's maniacal laughter, his body gradually faded, seemingly about to leave this space.
However, at that moment, a mocking voice rang out.
"Time rewind."
As soon as Fang Xiu finished speaking, an unbelievable scene unfolded.
The entire hellish realm seemed to have been paused, everything instantly frozen, including Lu Ziming's almost transparent body, which remained frozen in place.
The ecstasy on his face had frozen in time, and not a single cell in his body could move, as if time had stopped, and the only thing that could move was his consciousness.
Lu Ziming stared in horror at everything before him, completely unaware of what was happening.
Under his horrified gaze, the body that had been transparent began to solidify as if time had reversed, and then Fang Xiu's crushed heart was instantly restored.
Then, as if a movie were playing in reverse, Lu Ziming placed the heart back into Fang Xiu's chest, and the blood hole in his chest quickly healed.
Ultimately, both of them returned to the position they were in before their hearts were stolen.
This state of frozen time was finally broken.
Lu Ziming was utterly horrified at this moment, looking at Fang Xiu as if he were looking at a god.
"You...you...who are you?! You can actually manipulate time?!"
He had never imagined that there was such a thing as manipulating time. Was this even human? Was this something a human could actually do?
At this moment, Lu Ziming finally understood why Fang Xiu wasn't flustered at all, but instead kept looking at him like he was a clown.
