Chapter 638 The Darling of the Path of Power
Facing Heleqin who was killing everyone but no one could stop him, the giant king El Nino was furious.
He raised the burning branch in his hand, and then swung it down suddenly!
——In an instant.
A scorching breath like the fire of hell came from the void and instantly filled the entire battlefield!
It was as if invisible hot wheels were rolling on the ground, and the blood rain in the sky was completely evaporated before it even approached the ground.
Immediately afterwards, semi-arc-shaped knife marks like flame butterflies and feathers condensed in the air.
They block out the sun and cover the sky.
Looking up, it's like seeing countless stars.
All the knife marks were bright red, so deep that they seemed to cut through space.
As El Nino turned his gaze towards Heleqin, the endless knife marks gathered together and condensed into a long river.
They flowed in the air like a giant snake, wrapping around Aiwass!
The earth cracked, the rocks shattered - any obstacle was instantly crushed by the knife mark.
However, when these knife marks passed over the skinless creatures, they did not cause any harm to them!
Because these "followers of the sword" are born from El Niño's anger and act according to El Niño's will!
They can fly as fast as his mind imagines!
Looking at the Flame Blade Snake flying at an unreasonable speed, Origen, who was sitting behind Aiwass, suddenly locked his eyes.
"--careful!"
There is no doubt that it is an extremely fast speed that ordinary people cannot avoid!
El Niño just imagined the endless swords flying towards him, and they came roaring!
It was as if a murderous thought suddenly occurred in a person's mind, wishing that person to be hacked to death—the moment such a thought arose, the attack had already reached the body!
However, he failed to push Helechin away - or rather, Helechin grabbed him with his backhand.
Heleqin's body suddenly became ethereal and disappeared the moment before the Flame Blade Snake hit him.
A large amount of shadows suddenly burst out from his body, transforming into a dark storm.
——Undead Charge!
——Shadow Cloak!
When Heleqin disappeared in the air in an instant, even the giant king El Nino hesitated for a moment.
But he didn't hesitate for long.
He once again turned his murderous gaze towards the night demon in the air.
The blade whizzed over and rushed towards the Night Demon!
Night Demon's expression became serious for once.
The wings behind her overlapped in front of her to form a black shield, and at the same time, a black and red magic circle emerged beneath her - the thick curse turned into an invisible barrier.
But even so, the flame blade snake rushed past and directly knocked her away!
The barrier shattered, the black shield shattered, and the dark wings behind the Night Demon bent and shattered in an instant, and blood-stained shadow feathers flew all over the sky...
However, the Night Demon who was knocked away showed a hint of surprise on his face.
It wasn't that she was shocked by the high damage...
Rather, it's the opposite.
"...How could he be so weak?"
The Night Demon looked up in disbelief.
That sword is so divine and glorious.
The giant held it in his hand as if it were a scorching sun. Even from a great distance away... at least several kilometers, or even dozens of kilometers away, he could still feel the overwhelming heat.
The core concept of the Night Demon is "night", so this kind of attack with the attributes of "sun", "light" and "fire" has restraint on her.
Not to mention, this is a divine weapon bestowed by the Supreme Heaven himself - she was once the eldest daughter of the Helasar Empire, and was also the Son of the Moon who was extremely afraid of the sun. She must have some understanding of the wounded branch.
But……
...The current attack seems too fragile.
It was only slightly stronger than the wildfire giant Utgarochi's jumping attack with an axe - at least it was at a level that the Night Demon could fight safely for more than a dozen times without worrying about being suddenly killed.
It was even so weak that she suspected it might be a trap.
——Perhaps this cunning giant king wanted to make her let her down and then give her a fatal blow!
So the Night Demon nervously built up his defense again and engaged in a fierce offensive and defensive battle with the sword controlled by El Niño.
Of course, although it is called an offensive and defensive battle, in fact it is just El Niño unilaterally suppressing the Night Devil.
Even so, El Nino, controlling his sword at an incredible speed, saw the Night Demon being knocked away and immediately launched a pursuit, attacking three times in a row. However, each of these attacks was weaker than the last, and the last two attacks couldn't even penetrate the Night Demon's defense.
And just at this moment.
Behind the giant king El Nino, a figure quietly emerged from the bell tower of the royal city.
He was riding a black ghostly Pegasus, with a purple ritual array emerging beneath him, chanting something silently.
"Humph, I knew it!"
El Nino, without even turning his head, sneered, "Cunning elf!"
His previous pursuits of the Night Demon were just a cover - in fact, after Heleqin disappeared, he had been worried and looking for the other party's traces.
——It is to be able to attack the opponent the moment he appears!
So El Nino immediately sent those swords to turn back as quickly as possible and shoot towards the human figure!
At the same time, El Niño continued to condense new swords, and the moment they condensed, they were projected in that direction!
Like countless red stars falling from the sky——
Not dozens, not hundreds, but thousands of meteor showers!
The explosion caused by each meteor was enough to destroy half a house, which was about the size of four carriages gathered together.
And launching such an attack is effortless for El Niño.
Endless red lotuses unfolded like rain hitting a curtain of water, and the ground rumbled and wailed.
——If Heleqin’s speed is too fast, then just destroy the surrounding area!
The sweeping blow instantly destroyed the surrounding area—smoke and dust rose up, the ground rumbled and shook, and the giants living within the attack range were also affected and chopped into pieces in an instant.
El Niño looked at this stunning and magnificent scene with a cruel smile on his face.
This is why he must hold the Wounded Branch in his hand - even though Utgarochi can destroy almost all enemies with the Wounded Branch, he can also kill himself and overthrow the royal family effortlessly!
As long as Utgarochi held the wounded branch in his hand, El Niño was no longer his king, for he could kill everyone in the world with his own will, he could chop down giant trees with his own will and start a world war.
Compared to the "Giant King", this is the real king of the world!
El Niño cannot tolerate holding such "imperfect power".
After all, the true power protecting the giants is the Supreme Heaven, and he is truly loved by the Supreme Heaven. Therefore, the power El Niño holds is undoubtedly greater than that of Utgaroch!
Of course, maybe... part of the reason comes from his jealousy.
He was only less than a hundred years younger than Utgaroch, yet he missed all opportunities—missed the war, missed the achievements, missed the powerful opponent. He also missed the "Blood of the Supreme Heaven" that would have allowed Utgaroch to skip the promotion ceremony and forcibly reach the sixth level.
If I can't hold power in my hands, you might as well kill me directly or send me to ascend to heaven!
——Or, as a priest, do you really dare to kill me?!
Under the threat of El Niño, Utgarochi finally chose to give in and handed the injured branch over to himself.
This made El Nino feel refreshed, and he even gained recognition from the Tao, allowing his strength, which had stagnated after entering the fifth energy level, to begin to improve again.
This shows that his judgment is correct!
Times have changed!
He was simply forced to reach the sixth energy level based on his achievements and talent, and he has no idea what power is.
Relying solely on the "brute force" of the Dao's power isn't true "strength" at all! Relying solely on one's own extraordinary strength won't make one the king of the world. Because an individual can't defeat a group... It's like a giant holding a broken branch, yet still fearing the elves.
Why are they afraid of the elves? Is it because they are afraid of the Eternal Pope?
Isn't it because they are afraid of the elves' ancient heritage, the large number of top inheritors, and the countless hidden cards they have?
That's why the Giants trained the Skinless Army.
This just means that the giant actually understood it in his subconscious mind - and he understood it from the very beginning that one person is not as good as two people, and two people are not as good as a group of people!
The so-called power is the power to win! Conspiracy and deception, bloodline and power... no matter what it is, as long as it can be used to achieve the ultimate victory and take away what you want, it all belongs to "power"!
Since he embarked on this path, El Niño's power has grown by leaps and bounds.
When he took away Utgarochi's injured branch, he had just reached the fifth energy level. And now, how long has it been? He has already passed the halfway point of the fifth energy level - who else in the world can achieve such speed!
This just proves that he is the favorite of the Supreme Heaven—
He is a genius in the path of power!
