Chapter 907 The Unburnable Butterfly!
The sun rises—
At the moment when the light comes on.
Master Chongbo grabbed all the amber gems on his bracelet and threw them forward!
There were seven remaining gems. Each expanded and transformed into a translucent amber light curtain, protecting the people who had just been resurrected by Aiwass.
The seven layers of light curtains overlapped each other, and it had become an almost opaque barrier.
It was precisely because of this that they were able to survive the aftermath of that attack—
The body of the Flame-Rebellious Butterfly burned and cracked, and countless golden-red scorching flames compressed the air, turning it into a sharp shock wave like an invisible gale, almost burning and destroying everything around it!
——The sun falls.
The sky darkened again.
Wherever the shock wave swept, the Tower of Babel burst into pieces.
The black cracks reflected in the surrounding world were also torn apart more because of this.
If it was like a pair of intact pants that was cut into several holes by a dagger, now it is as tattered as some special fashion style of jeans.
Those cracks were like eyes, through which the light could faintly see the Fallen Angels on the other side.
It was an incomparably huge figure, a majestic figure that stretched across the sky and earth like a demon god.
Compared with its size, the entire Tower of Babel seems like just an exquisite pastry on a plate.
His hands were razor-sharp claws, and behind him were faintly visible six enormous, ragged, jet-black wings. His face was indistinct, only a rich, deep purple halo swirling around his head. Through his horn-shaped, full-visor helmet, only two balls of crimson, black flames could be seen where his eyes should be.
The world has become more shaky than before.
——However, it still did not completely collapse, but instead released more power from the Fallen Angel.
Seeing this, the Fallen Angels were no longer anxious.
“Hehehe…”
With the Fallen Angel's chuckle, his two sharp claws were already strong enough to reach through the huge crack in the world!
He used his hands to roughly tear open the remaining tattered gap, letting the huge left claw in first.
The size of the left claw alone was more than fifty meters long - because with the collapse of the Tower of Babel, Aiwass and the others had fallen to the second floor, and the claw was almost as tall as them!
The upper parts were shattered by the Flame-Bending Butterfly. The fragments of the fourth-floor common language device also fell beside them.
Without thinking, Mu wanted to jump onto the sharp claws and carry out a one-way boarding battle - but Zhu Tang grabbed him and shook his head at him seriously.
The massive claw opened slightly, a silver-grey sphere of light emerging from its center. A deep blue glow enveloped the sphere like a seal, and a complex, purple, enormous magic circle emerged in front of the claw.
Under the spell's operation, the collapsing world suddenly stopped disintegrating. Time slowed to a crawl, and the numerous fragments of the collapsed Tower of Babel slowly collapsed and fell at a speed of less than one meter per second.
Those fragments looked like corpses that had fallen into the deep sea, gradually dispersing powdery blood.
——The speed of the world's collapse was greatly slowed down by the Fallen Angels!
"Want to escape? It's not that easy."
The Fallen Angel looked at Aiwass, who had transformed back into a human body, but with longer antlers on his head. A low and resonant voice rumbled between heaven and earth: "You are covered with the marks of sin. How about turning you into a demon?
"With such a strong desire to transcend, you should have embarked on this path of depravity. Haha... I wonder if Sizhu would still want you if you turned into a demon."
As He spoke, He stretched out His right claw.
The sharp devil's claws grabbed Aiwass from a distance!
Aiwass was grabbed through the air and floated up directly.
A colorful brand of sin appeared on his body—
"Pride, jealousy, lust, rage, greed, laziness... hehe... so it's you..."
The Fallen Angel scoffed, "What a shame, what a shame. If that girl had stayed in Xingtan a little longer, I could have defeated her completely. Then, I could have created the most perfect apostle."
“…Is that you?”
Aiwass finally knew clearly why the stigma of sin that had inexplicably appeared on Aleister before was there.
That wasn't the effect of the Tail Ring's foreshadowing ritual, nor was it a side effect of the Moon Children's faith in the Feast Master.
That is the mark of sin struck by the Fallen Angel himself!
He clearly didn't know Aiwass... or at least, he didn't know that Aiwass was being followed by Sizhu. But he had already been following Aleister...
"You think—I know nothing about the Tail Ring Ritual?"
The Fallen Angel's laughter boomed, "The Shepherd has also entrusted his despair and will to me! His crazy plan to drag the entire world into the abyss... Haha, that was also within my expectations!
"If you want to plot against me, then come on!"
Falling from the dream world to the material world is like a star falling from the sky. This also conforms to the principle of the "fall".
Having regained his physical body, he was able to rebel against the sky once again - his fall from a high and mighty god to a demon king in the material world, this in itself was his path to enlightenment!
This is... taking advantage of the opponent's strategy!
"But now, I won't be as foolish as I was in the past... and fall into someone else's trap without any preparation."
The Fallen Angel's voice continued to resound majestically, but it gradually became deeper as it went from high pitched.
But Aiwass could no longer hear what he said——
Aiwass felt only waves of intense tearing sensations within his body—his flesh and blood were throbbing, and the brand shone with a purple light. The flesh beneath his skin would occasionally bulge higher, but it could never break through his pure, white skin and burrow outside.
It's not an injury, nor a curse... it's a gift of evolution.
Because of this, he could neither be immune nor resist this power, because it was "well-intentioned" and came from "friendly forces"!
As an intermediary of power, the Sin Brand is continuously receiving power from the Fallen Angels and transforming Aiwass's body into a more noble posture.
During this process, the severe pain of tearing flesh and blood made Aiwass cry out in pain.
"Perhaps you are indeed innocent...Snake's Little Key."
The vicious voice was full of contempt and resentment: "But what does that have to do with me?
"——Are we no longer innocent?!
"Since you are also a part of him, then you should repay the interest for him!
"Anyway, without you, his crazy plans will be shattered just the same!"
But at this moment.
The power of the same origin was once again reversed by Lucifer's wings!
The surging divine power burned from the bottom of Aiwas's eyes, and his whole body was burning with purple flames - and that purple was only the core of the flame, and the outer periphery was pure white light!
The next moment, the six pure white wings that Lucifer gave to Aiwass roared and opened, making the mark of sin suddenly dim!
The brilliant light made Aiwas's body shine with pure white light. He broke free from the invisible chains and flew high into the sky!
——The absolute suppression effect on the "Winged Ones" is also effective against the Fallen Angels, who are also the king of the winged beings!
Looking at that radiance, Fallen Angel seemed to be in a trance for a moment.
His originally talkative sneer came to an abrupt end, and his constant sarcastic remarks turned into silence.
“…Ah, that light…”
Fallen Angel whispered softly.
At this moment, Aiwass used the six deadly sin marks as a transit point to continuously draw power from the Fallen Angel's body.
And this power was transformed into pure white light through Lucifer's wings.
The overflowing light alone turned the area behind Aiwass into a pure white like a temple.
That power cannot be suppressed at all.
It was impossible for Aiwass to accumulate such a level of power in his body - that was the real power, the power of God, enough to easily transform a fifth-level extraordinary person into pure demonic power!
That power was constantly purified and filled into the wings behind him.
The golden light formed pieces of runes, condensing into an extremely huge and brilliant golden magic circle.
One glance was enough to tell that it was the Winged One spell, originating from the same spell used to stabilize space released by the Fallen Angel's left claw!
This is also the ancient magic used by the wizards of the Tower of Babel!
The triple rings—white gold, brilliant gold, and dark gold—intertwined and spun at high speed.
Aiwass didn't use any of his magic power at all, and the power had already condensed on its own!
He just called out the name with great certainty.
That is Lucifer's power—Lucifer's power in every sense!
“—Paradise Lost!”
Countless golden lights illuminated the entire world in an instant.
The light turned into a sharp blade that fell from the sky, leaving a series of zigzag traces, sweeping across the entire world within sight!
Everything within sight will be dealt a devastating blow!
What you see is what you see!
Unlike the self-destruction of the Flame-Defying Butterfly, this time the people behind Aiwass were not hurt at all.
The first to bear the brunt of the attack was the Fallen Angel's left claw, which was maintaining the spell.
The magic circle only lasted for a moment before it was completely shattered by the rain-like light blades!
The world where time slowed down instantly returned to its normal flow. The fragments of the Tower of Babel that were slowly falling from the sky crashed to the ground, stirring up dust and causing earthquakes.
And that attack seemed to hurt the Fallen Angel... but it was only a pain.
Even the Fallen Angel, who was awakened at one point, roared in extreme anger: "This is... my power!
"You liar, villain, and thief!
"Do you think I don't know this trick!?"
At this moment, a terrifying force gathered on the other side.
The rumbling sound became clearer and clearer, and the space was almost completely shattered.
"——Butterfly of Rebellious Flame!"
But at this moment, Aiwass no longer paid attention to the Fallen Angel, but called out Leah's name again without thinking!
That was the new power gained after Aiwass's Book of Law evolved.
[Effect: Use again to summon the Unburnable Butterfly from the ashes of the Flame-Butterfly; when the Unburnable Butterfly enters the battlefield, it deals a huge amount of damage to all burning enemies.]
In the void, the cocoon of fire condensed out of thin air again.
That's where the sun just fell.
The cocoon of flames grew larger and spread, then turned into a pillar of fire that reached the sky.
The sky, which was being continuously baptized and illuminated by the rain of light, suddenly ignited a beam of fire that pierced through the sky and the earth!
The pillar of fire suddenly spread out, and the expanding curtain of flames swept over everything.
A summoned creature similar to but different from the Flame-Bending Butterfly breaks out of its cocoon!
It was something Aiwass had never seen before—a gesture that was completely out of the realm of "in-game" memory.
This is the second form developed by Aiwass through long-term pastoral care, cultivating the Flame Butterfly to the present day.
Just like Shadow Fiend evolving into Night Fiend, this is a brand new evolution unique to Aiwass.
Only when the Flame-Rebellious Butterfly dies in the fire can it be reborn from the ashes and transform into its true form!
——The unburnable butterfly!
She is not the black and red color of the Flame-Defying Butterfly...
But it is grayish white.
A pure white dress concealed everything, like a wedding gown. A hollow, circular halo hovered behind her head. The butterfly wings behind her transformed into golden wings of light.
Compared to the widow-like appearance of the Flame-Defying Butterfly, it is more like the grown-up Julia.
It's like going from a widow to a bride.
That cold and indifferent attitude is like that of a queen who reigns over everything.
His entire body was awash in white, gray, and a hint of gold, without a single trace of other colors. Even his pupils were a pale gray, like burnt embers.
But she seemed to be missing a divine core - the core in the halo behind her head.
This made her look like a lifeless, colorless sculpture.
However, just as Aiwass continued to bombard the space crack with Paradise Lost.
The Flame-Defying Butterfly—no, it should be said that the "Unburnable Butterfly"—has demonstrated a whole new power.
She raised her hands as if embracing the sky.
A grayish-white, shadowy flame, without heat or sound, burned quietly above her.
She stood in front of Aiwass like a torch stump, raising a curtain of flames in the air.
All the beams of light that passed through it were covered in a layer of burnt grayish-white.
But when the beam of light landed on the ground, there was a deafening explosion!
The earth cracked and space trembled.
At this moment, the power gathered by the Fallen Angels also reached its limit.
It was impossible to see what was happening on his side through the broken space. One could only see the visible red, purple and black light condensing.
“—Paradise Lost!”
The next moment, countless purple light blades also attacked!
——That was an attack that Aiwass could not have resisted.
The power of Tiansi far exceeds the power that Aiwass can be immune to!
However, the "incombustible power" attached to the Incombustible Butterfly gave Aiwass the ability to fight against the Fallen Angels!
"That's... the power of conflict!"
In just a moment, Baike recognized the source of that power: "That must be the legendary power of conflict!"
That is the "force of conflict" that the Horus have always sought - that is the core of the solar power.
——The ultimate pursuit of every generation of Horus people is the "artificial sun".
The sun has set twice, and the third sun is not eternal.
Therefore they need to create the future fourth sun before the third sun burns out.
The "power of conflict" is the core of this power - it is the power they gained from the legend of Mithra, which is condensed from the conflict between two opposing attributes.
Ultimate fire and ultimate water could never blend; the purer the substance, the stronger its properties. Impure water and fire might simply annihilate each other, but sufficiently pure water and fire would produce an extremely violent explosion the moment they came into contact—this was something all alchemy apprentices knew.
But explosion is a process, it does not happen instantaneously.
If this power can be sealed before the explosion, then after it is unsealed, they "are not water and fire in violent contact with each other", so will there still be an explosion?
The experimental results were positive - so the alchemists believed that this was because the opposing elements had already generated a stable "force of conflict" when interacting.
Once this power is released, it will release an extremely powerful explosion and re-release the product of the annihilation of these two opposing elements!
Therefore, the Horus people believed that if they could collect enough conflicting forces, put them in a strong enough container and let them explode, they could light up a "momentary sun".
From the perspective of the sun, the sun is the condensation of light and fire. Xi Tiansi is the hottest fire in the world.
This should naturally be the ultimate of fire.
At the same time, it is also "incombustible power" - because its power does not allow it to burn slowly, once it is released, it will inevitably explode violently!
When the power of the Incombustible Butterfly is released to its limit, the center point of the two Lost Paradises' collision.
The already crumbling world suddenly shattered.
