Chapter 135. Lin Xiaoxiao's Fury Continues...
The black energy orb was caught by that seemingly slender hand, and along with several ancient-looking experience coins imbued with special faith energy, it was 'pushed' back to Nuenro.
Nuenro reacted quickly, releasing his grip on the spear and leaping backward to retreat rapidly.
Amidst a massive explosion and flames, the black cat, carrying Lin Xiaoxiao and Xiao Weizhi, appeared through a spatial rift, leaping away to avoid the aftershocks of the explosion.
As soon as Lin Xiaoxiao stepped out of the spatial rift, she summoned the other four divine protectors and used a large wave of faith power to buff them in battle: "Thank you for your help with the rest of the work."
They then separated and flew off in four directions to assist the professionals in the city in annihilating the juvenile evil god and the corrupted beast tide.
The black cat followed its sister, Sicily, and they headed west together.
The other three guardians went to the east, south, and north respectively.
Xingyan's spiritual power replaced his eyes, scanning Lin Xiaoxiao's body inch by inch. When he realized that her right leg was no longer a prosthetic, a wide smile appeared on his lips: "You're back?"
After so many years, I finally see a glimmer of hope to regain my sight. I've forgotten how many years it's been since I last saw the sunrise.
Ignoring the spiritual energy clinging to her, Lin Xiaoxiao nodded towards Xingyan, who was three meters away: "Yes, I'm back."
In the pause between words, she raised her hand and grasped the air. The hilt of the lightsaber appeared out of thin air and she held it in her hand. Pulling it back, a familiar energy lightsaber materialized.
Just as the two were greeting each other, Nuenro broke through the explosion, holding a curved sword in each hand, which resembled a crescent moon, against his arms. He swung the swords alternately, unleashing hundreds of dark blade energies.
Lin Xiaoxiao conjured a 4-meter-wide, circular, light golden energy shield in front of her, blocking most of the attacks. She dodged the rest by swaying her body from side to side.
Meanwhile, Xiao Weizhi, who wanted to come and help, was entangled by Liu Duoxin, who appeared out of nowhere.
Xingyan wanted to help, but he was also entangled by more than ten figures dressed in black robes and attacked in unison. He couldn't break free at all and could only use his spear to parry and find the right moment to thrust out and counterattack.
Nuenro swung his arms repeatedly to attack, and his hair, which was originally neatly combed at the back of his head, fell messily in front of his forehead and blocked half of his eyes due to the large range of his attacks.
Combined with his exaggerated and manic expression, skin paler than paper, and completely black eyes, he looked remarkably like a demon crawling out of hell to claim a life.
He said excitedly, "You've finally appeared. I'm going to defeat you and prove that His choice was wrong."
Lin Xiaoxiao raised the energy shield in her left hand to block part of Nu Enluo's attack. Her right hand's lightsaber cut the dark blade energy in two and then she swiftly unleashed more than thirty sword strikes.
The translucent golden energy sword energy aimed directly at Nuenro's vital points: heart, neck, arteries, face...
But Nuenluo was no pushover either. He condensed more than a dozen black energy balls the size of walnuts and threw them out, blasting away all the golden energy sword energy in front of him.
In the pitch-black sky, explosions of varying sizes and flames appeared intermittently, accompanied by thick smoke that obscured the entire area above Mona City.
Lin Xiaoxiao wore a light energy armor, her body glowing with golden light. She held her sword with both hands, expressionless, and held the arm blade that emitted black mist in front of her.
As the weapons rubbed together, a few sparks were generated.
Nu Enlu crossed his arms and pressed them forward forcefully, grinning to reveal his big white teeth, and said in a deep voice, "Is that all you've got?"
Lin Xiaoxiao's arm muscles tensed, her hands pressing down on the lightsaber, the tip pointing at Nuenro's fragile neck in front of her, her voice sounding like it was being squeezed out of her throat: "Killing you is more than enough."
Nu Enlu sneered and swung his arms, sending Lin Xiaoxiao flying more than 30 meters. Before she could react, his figure clung to her like a ghost.
With a twist of his wrist, he took out the arm blade that was stuck in his arm, turning it into two crescent blades that he held in his hand, and quickly slashed at Lin Xiaoxiao's neck.
Lin Xiaoxiao conjured six palm-sized energy shields around her neck, blocking the attack from Nur'enluo that was aimed at her neck. She then turned to the side and used her lightsaber to slash at the powerful Nur'enluo, while throwing out a 1 million experience coin.
'peng——', 'peng——'......
Faced with the continuous explosions, Nuenro had no choice but to abandon his idea of close-range attacks. Before retreating, he threw out hundreds of fist-sized black energy balls.
The black energy spheres exploded in the explosion of experience coins, forming even larger explosions.
The moment Lin Xiaoxiao saw the black energy spheres, she quickly conjured an egg-shaped protective shield around her body and rolled forward 720 degrees before the explosion began, dodging the six black energy spheres.
From within the smoke, two curved blades flew towards them like boomerangs.
One sword flew towards Lin Xiaoxiao's neck, and the other towards her right leg.
Lin Xiaoxiao first cleaved the curved blade flying towards her neck with her sword, then rolled away to dodge the spinning curved blade flying towards her right leg.
Just as she regained her footing in the air, she noticed two boomerang blades circling behind her and muttered a curse under her breath: "Damn it!"
Just as she was about to leap away to dodge the flying knife behind her, a pale, bloodless fist, accompanied by a thunderous whistling sound, pierced through layers of smoke and struck Lin Xiaoxiao directly in the face.
Lin Xiaoxiao dodged by dismounting, then threw out more than twenty golden energy balls and quickly flew downwards.
Nu Enlu waved his hand, swatting away the five energy balls that came flying towards him. He caught the returning scimitar with both hands and followed behind Lin Xiaoxiao, leaping after her.
The golden and black figures fought from the sky to the ground and back again, causing violent explosions wherever they went.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't notice that while she was fighting Nuenluo, the value of the second task on the task panel kept soaring:
The original message was: [Mandatory Quest for Divine Inheritance 2: Slay the Evil God [0/10298]]
It has now become: [Mandatory Quest for Divine Inheritance 2: Slay the Evil God [0/23432]]
On the other side, Xiao Weizhi was covered in energy armor formed from dark energy, and held a weapon that looked like a longsword, a staff, and a spear.
This weapon is entirely white-gold, with the most dazzling gold color at the very top. It is 2.1 meters long, and the shape of the top resembles Yang Jian's triangular stabbing. Several rows of special metal rings of various sizes are also hanging along the edge of the blade.
The metal ring is adorned with many special gems that enhance combat power. At the very center are three palm-sized rhombus-shaped gems that produce a unique tinkling sound when swung.
These sounds can be transformed into semi-physical special sound waves to confuse and hinder the enemy.
He flew through the air, fighting against Liu Duoxin, whose entire body was shrouded in black mist, with only her head and half a mask visible.
A 3-meter-long azure magic circle stood in front of Xiao Weizhi, from which countless wind blades shot out and flew toward Liu Duoxin.
The black mist surrounding Liu Duoxin seemed to devour energy.
No matter what skills Xiao Weizhi used, he couldn't harm Liu Duoxin in the slightest; in fact, the black mist surrounding her only increased.
Liu Duoxin used her good eye to scrutinize Xiao Weizhi in front of her. She bit her lower lip, her eyes revealing intense resentment and bitterness.
Xiao Weizhi should be her man, so why can't he wait for her a little longer?
Once she finds the complete ancient divine core hidden in the Xiao family and offers it as tribute to the God of Greed, she will be able to break free from his control and live a good life with him.
Why couldn't you wait for her a little longer? Why betray her? And why target her for the sake of a cripple...?
Since you've betrayed us, then die!
The anger in Liu Duoxin's heart was activated, and the newly grown tumor-like sphere on the half of her face hidden under the mask began to emit bursts of purple light.
Along with the intact half of his face, black veins began to creep up, and the intact eye was tinged with a distinct red glow.
Her expression was contorted, and her voice was shrill: "Xiao Weizhi, you deserve to die. Why are you still alive?"
As Liu Duoxin's sharp voice rang out, the black mist in the air seemed to have a mind of its own, rapidly gathering towards her and forming a 28-meter-tall black mist giant.
At the moment the giant was formed, Liu Duoxin sank into the giant's heart and used the energy within her body to drive the giant's actions.
Several sharp spikes materialized on the giant's clenched fist, and he swung his fist rapidly at Xiao Weizhi.
As the giant's fist was about to strike, Xiao Weizhi raised his weapon with both hands and swiftly sliced it in two.
Liu Duoxin, who was hiding in the heart of the Fog Man, suddenly let out a scream: "It hurts! Chen Zhuoran, where are you? Get back here!"
Located in the right city, with a brown collar around its neck, its hands and feet flat on the ground, and its body covered in pustules, this monster, which was not human at all, heard Liu Duoxin's call.
He abruptly stopped his actions of tearing apart the professional fighters, his lifeless eyes staring blankly at the air where Liu Duoxin was, and remained stunned for several minutes.
A moment later, he threw away the severed leg in his hand, squatted down, and leaped into the air. A large cloud of black mist carried him and flew quickly towards Liu Duoxin's location.
Before Chen Zhuoran, who had become neither human nor ghost, arrived, Xiao Weizhi had already swiftly swung his weapon, cutting the mist-like figure in front of him to pieces.
Although it was cut open, the mist figure would still regenerate, but Liu Duoxin inside would scream violently every time the black mist figure was injured.
Xiao Weizhi waved his weapon, and a 30-meter-wide purple magic circle appeared in front of him, just as the skill incantation was about to be completed.
Chen Zhuoran, behaving like a dog, pounced on Xiao Weizhi from the side. His wide-open mouth emitted a foul stench with black smoke, and saliva dripped down his face.
Smelling the distinct stench in the wind, Xiao Weizhi dodged the lunging attack and used the weapon as a club.
A blow to Chen Zhuoran's face sent him flying to the ground, creating a huge, deep crater with cracks around the edges.
Then, Xiao Weizhi turned to the black mist figure and used a forbidden technique: [Energy Binding Chains], conjuring thousands of thigh-thick energy chains to forcibly bind it into a rice dumpling.
Then, he immediately continued to condense the magic circle for the forbidden lightning spell: [Thunderbolts from Above].
The black mist figure struggled frantically, the energy chains clanging as they struck each other, accompanied by Liu Duoxin's shrill scream: "Chen Zhuoran, where are you? Kill him! Kill him for me!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Weizhi frowned and increased the speed at which he was outputting energy. In the blink of an eye, a purple magic circle had formed in front of him.
Chen Zhuoran, who was neither human nor ghost in the deep pit below, had his lifeless black eyes glow with a distinct red light after hearing the shout.
From a throat that sounded like it had been rubbed with sandpaper, she managed to squeeze out, "Xin, Xin Xin, she's in danger, save her. Ah—"
Chen Zhuoran hunched over, his back bent like a shrimp, his hands 20 centimeters off the ground and clenched into fists. As his roar intensified, countless black wisps of mist rushed toward his body.
In a matter of seconds, Chen Zhuoran's body rapidly grew larger, quickly transforming into a giant with purplish-black skin, covered in spikes and bones, resembling a demon, and standing 8 meters tall.
Just as the magic circle in front of Xiao Weizhi was about to form again, Chen Zhuoran flashed from underground to Xiao Weizhi's side and threw a punch hard.
Xiao Weizhi was slammed downwards and sent flying hundreds of meters, turning into a human stone that smashed through dozens of houses.
Finally, after tumbling several times, it came to a stop in front of a tall building that had mostly collapsed.
Just after Xiao Weizhi was knocked away, Chen Zhuoran, who had transformed into a demon, used his withered hand with sharp nails and a distinct black mist to quickly sever the energy chains.
Lin Xiaoxiao, who was in the distance, saw Xiao Weizhi fall to the ground and glanced at him worriedly out of the corner of her eye.
Nuenro, who was trembling in mid-air, said with a mocking and disdainful tone: "You still have the mind to care about your little lover? As expected of a woman, a brainless creature driven by emotions."
His words were full of contempt for women and a condescending disdain.
Lin Xiaoxiao sneered and slashed with her lightsaber: "Looking down on women? Don't forget, your mother was a woman too. If it weren't for her, you'd probably be a cell stuck to the wall."
Upon hearing these words, Nuenro seemed to recall some angry past events, and the force of his attacks grew stronger and stronger.
Countless sparks flew as the weapons clashed.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Humans whose minds are filled with nothing but filthy thoughts of mating should not live. Only a race that can reproduce autonomously is perfect."
'ka.beng——' The energy lightsaber in Lin Xiaoxiao's hand shattered inch by inch, turning into golden light spots that dissipated in the air.
The two scimitars in Nuenro's hand and the lightsaber in Lin Xiaoxiao's hand shattered together.
His dark eyes widened, his fists clenched, and black mist billowed from them as he swiftly swung them at Lin Xiaoxiao: "Die! Die! All of you die!"
Lin Xiaoxiao crossed her arms in front of her head, her arms covered in energy armor, and withstood Nu Enluo's punches.
After enduring the attack for several dozen seconds, she found a suitable opportunity and landed a left hook on Nuenro's right cheek and a right hook on his stomach, bracing herself with one hand on the energy block that had materialized.
His body twisted like a windmill, and with a flying kick, both feet struck Nuenro's chin, sending him crashing into the ground below, creating a crater ten meters in diameter and six meters deep.
After kicking Nuenro away, she gasped for breath and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Her right leg, which had only recently been reattached, had four obvious scratches from Nuenro's claws.
The wound still emitted wisps of black gas, which hindered its healing. Bright red blood, tinged with gold, dripped down rapidly.
Nuenro lay in the deep pit, his eyes fixed on Lin Xiaoxiao in mid-air with disbelief. His bleeding right leg seemed to be murmuring to himself, "Your leg is not a prosthetic, not a prosthetic."
Lin Xiaoxiao made a drawing motion as if she were drawing a bow, and a golden energy bow appeared in her left hand.
The index and middle fingers of the left hand are joined together and point downwards at Nuenro, with a diamond-shaped arrow gleaming coldly, appearing close to the two fingers.
With his right hand fully extended, he pinched the arrow's fletching with his thumb, index finger, and middle finger, wedging it into a golden bowstring slightly thicker than silk.
After letting go, he swiftly shot an arrow with the power to destroy all energy towards Nunu's head.
Nuenro's tone turned furious: "Why? Why? My abilities are clearly superior to yours, why did He choose you?! Ah!!!"
The arrow struck Nuenro's forehead, creating a huge, silent explosion of golden light.
When Lin Xiaoxiao saw the explosion, she assumed that Nu Enluo had died from the special energy arrow that could kill demigods, and was about to turn around to help Xingyan and the others fight the enemy.
But then they suddenly realized that they had not received any notification to kill Nuenro.
She turned around in surprise and found that the original golden light explosion had disappeared, and what followed was a huge, dark phantom.
This phantom was extremely strange, unlike the previous phantom of the God of Shadows. Its specific appearance was completely unclear, and one could only vaguely see a pair of pitch-black eyes that seemed capable of devouring everything, like the eyes of a demon.
Everything else was a blur, and even the size of the phantom itself was unclear.
Beneath the illusory figure was Nuenro, whose clothes were torn to shreds, whose hair was disheveled, whose mouth was oozing black blood, and whose pale skin was exposed.
He stood slowly and swaying in the phantom, his head bowed, emanating a black energy thicker and darker than ink. His voice was hoarse: "If you tell me how to retrieve the sacrificial limbs, I can make your death easier."
Lin Xiaoxiao's pupils contracted rapidly as she cautiously condensed layers of energy armor on her body and conjured a pair of 1.2-meter-long two-handed swords. Holding them in her hands, she crossed them and unleashed hundreds of cross slashes at Nu Enluo.
However, the Cross Slash skill inexplicably disappeared when it was still 3 meters away from the phantom.
Below the phantom, Nuenro's body suddenly began to swell, his skin stretched open with dark cracks, his hands gripped his head, black veins appeared on his face, and his eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.
His expression was one of extreme pain, as if he were bearing an energy he shouldn't have had to endure.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked stunned, and while flying downwards with her weapon in hand, she cursed angrily, "Damn madman."
We absolutely cannot allow Nuenro to complete the act of god possession. Once he completes the possession, whether we can defeat him or not is another matter.
Just as the weapon, glowing with golden light, was about to strike Nuenro's neck, a black energy barrier appeared and deflected Lin Xiaoxiao away.
