Chapter 294: End of the World
The pale golden spirit separated from the broken body and leaped into the sky.
This is the "Phantom of Visas", which, at the cost of the rules of sealing corpse parts, allows Bai Wei to break free from the constraints of his body and fight in the form of a phantom.
Although it is not as good as the second-level descent that comes at the cost of burning the host's soul and life, it is indeed the power of Visas.
And wildfires feel this even more clearly.
If the previous Bai Wei only made Wildfire feel fearful, then the current Bai Wei would make him feel like the nightmare from a thousand years ago... had returned.
"Boom!"
The earth was roaring, and the land under the wildfire was shattered into pieces in the violent tremors. Several huge black shadows stretched out from the cracks, like a giant palm.
Wildfire subconsciously wanted to escape, but the hundreds of blood-fires on his body made him so painful that he reacted a little too slowly and was caught in the giant hand like a migratory bird with broken wings.
This was followed by a series of loud "crack" sounds, and Wildfire's limbs shattered into pieces as the giant hand closed.
He uttered a shrill cry.
This huge palm was nothing else but the [Magic Chains] learned from Uru, but the number of chains was huge. Each "finger" condensed tens of thousands of chains, and with the blessing of [Overload], each chain was sharp enough to cut stone.
But if that were the case, it would still not be able to harm Wildfire's body, because gods are not affected by any means of the mortal world. This is a problem of mechanism, and neither quantity nor quality can make up for it, even if it is used by Bai Wei.
But that's only under normal circumstances, it's completely different in Phantom form.
After all, apart from its own rules, whether it is the first-level descent or the second-level descent, it is essentially using other people's bodies. Even if a mortal's body is raised to the limit in the descent posture, it is still a mortal's body, and a mortal's body cannot harm a god.
But the phantom posture is a power that belongs entirely to Visas.
In other words, as long as Bai Wei uses power in the phantom form, no matter it is spell or technique, it will be endowed with Visas' most important characteristic - deicide.
That was why Wildfire bled, broke bones, and wailed under the mortal spell of [Magic Chains].
He really felt the pain.
The blood-driven fire from the inside out and the magic chains from the outside in made the wildfire completely lose its divine demeanor. It looked as miserable and miserable as a migratory bird caught in the hands of humans.
However, He is God after all, even if He is not smart, He is still God, and God will never just wait to die.
Then the wailing turned into a roar, and Wildfire grabbed the nearest magic chains with the four arms on his back, and then quickly exerted force to pry the chains out little by little.
There was another series of cracking sounds, but this time it was not Wildfire's bones that broke, but the magic chains.
The wildfire seemed to be breaking off bit by bit the fingers that wanted to crush Him to death. Under the huge DEBUFF of the Blood-Guided Fire, He still stood up bit by bit, raised his head bit by bit, and glared at Bai Wei who was floating in the air, with flames burning in his eyes.
Bai Wei let out a soft "tsk".
After all, he is the body of a god. Even though he had drained so much blood from this guy before the fight officially started, he was still not easy to deal with.
“Ouch!!!”
Wildfire roared again, and its four "fingers" were broken by its four arms. It instantly regained its freedom, and then stood up, reaching the same height as Bai Wei who was floating in the air.
His two front paws also unconsciously became more like human arms.
In an instant, Wildfire changed from a deformed vicious dog with human arms to a six-armed demon that could walk upright, a six-armed demon with hellish fire burning all over its body!
"Visas!" He roared, "I finally found you!"
The words were filled with anger and...excitement?
Yes, Bai Wei heard excitement in Yehuo's tone.
He immediately understood something.
The excitement did not come from wildfire, but from Senluo!
But Bai Wei knew that this was not the resurrection of the God of Senluo, but that Wildfire had used too much of Senluo's power when his cognition was not yet complete, so that he was unknowingly influenced by Senluo's thoughts, and even his form changed from a wolf to a hunter.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!” He took out the thunderbolt from the clouds again and threw it towards Bai Wei, “Finally, I can… kill you with my own hands!”
After becoming a hunter, Wildfire's movements became faster and smoother. Bai Wei only saw a flash of lightning. The lightning spear, which was more powerful than before, dyed the entire night sky into day with a huge explosion, and the huge energy distorted the air.
However, after the lightning disappeared, Wildfire saw Bai Wei still floating in the same place without suffering any harm.
Because he is a phantom between reality and illusion, just like the projection of Wildfire in the mortal world before he came out of the Senluo Divine Kingdom, attacks from the real level cannot be effective against the projection.
Wildfire didn't seem to believe it, and he threw lightning spears at Bai Wei again and again.
However, the lightning gun, which was powerful enough to destroy the world, could not touch Bai Wei's phantom except lighting up the night sky again and again, which gradually made Wildfire angry and impatient.
In fact, there are three ways to hurt the phantom.
One is to wait for the entity to come into reality, just like Bai Wei had done before, and the other is to enter the other party's kingdom of God.
Bai Wei’s kingdom of God is naturally Taoyuan Township, which is a place that the wildfire now cannot find.
Therefore, wildfires can only be dealt with by the third method.
If He really completely devoured the God of Senluo, He must know this method, and that is the only possibility for Bai Wei to defeat Him.
Bai Wei stared at the wildfire.
Finally, Wildfire, who found that his attacks were ineffective, thought of something and a crazy look of wanting to destroy everything flashed in his eyes.
So He stopped attacking and assumed a strange posture, as if He was praying.
The world is silent at this moment.
But there was only a brief moment of silence, and then with a "crack", the sky was torn apart by lightning.
But the lightning did not disappear, but froze there like a spider web, followed by the second and third lightning. The whole world was cut into pieces by these purple-gold lightning.
It’s coming!
Bai Wei was ready.
The third method that Wildfire intends to use is also the simplest and most brutal method, which is an indiscriminate attack, destroying everything within a certain range, even the kingdom of God that does not exist in the real world.
[Divine Art: Embers of the End]
The thunder that would not dissipate grew rapidly with the wildfire as the center, as if it had turned the entire world into a piece of solid ice. Cracks appeared in the center of the ice, starting with just one or two, but soon began to spread rapidly.
When the cracks spread to a certain magnitude, the ice will shatter.
Correspondingly, the world will collapse.
Yes, this is the world-destroying magic released by the gods.
When its prelude appeared, Bai Wei realized that the wildfire was deeply influenced by Senluo's thinking.
Because Wildfire didn't want to destroy this land, he just wanted to be the god of this land. Only Senluo didn't care about these things. The biggest wish of that crazy god was to kill Visas. For this, let alone destroying this land, destroying the whole world and dragging all the gods to be buried together was nothing to him.
And now, Wildfire has also been affected by this consciousness, and he has decided to kill Bai Wei at all costs.
But this is also Bai Wei's opportunity.
He looked at the wildfire standing like a sculpture and slowly raised his hand.
The magic chains began to surge again, like a dormant poisonous snake, staring at the wildfire in the center.
When releasing the magic of destruction, Wildfire cannot do anything else and can only wait for the completion of the magic of destruction.
It seemed like a stupid act, but He was God, and how many people could interrupt the God's spell chanting?
Even the current Bai Wei can't do it. Bai Wei in the phantom form has no way to use the rules, and the effects of other spells on gods are really limited. After all, apart from the characteristics of killing gods, the phantom form only has one tenth of the power of the second-level descent, and even the second-level descent with four corpses cannot directly fight against a true God.
but……
Bai Wei has grasped the only possibility.
At the foot of Wildfire, the creeping magic chain dug out a lifeless piece of flesh from the ground. This was the dead Devourer. Then the magic chain separated the Devourer's flesh and took out a small tooth from it.
During this time, the wildfire had accumulated enough thunder.
The whole world is like a piece of solid ice that has been filled with cracks. Just by looking at it, you can almost hear the "crack" sound of it about to collapse.
It's time!
Bai Wei controlled the magic chain that had found its teeth and rushed towards Wildfire's body.
At this time, Wildfire's indestructible body was already covered with countless wounds that Ade had torn open with his life. Although most of them had healed, there were still a few that had not healed due to sporadic blood-induced fire and were still bleeding.
And Bai Wei’s target is such a wound.
“Ahhhh!”
The wildfire that had been stagnant for a long time finally moved. It let out a very majestic roar, and the solidified thunder began to vibrate.
The ice is about to break and the world is shaking.
But with a "swish" sound.
The chain had reached Wildfire's wound and bit it hard like a deadly poisonous snake.
Sent that tooth into the flesh of Wildfire.
"boom"!
The world begins to fall apart.
But Bai Wei snapped his fingers at the same time.
The collapse stopped and the stars moved.
At this moment, Wildfire felt that all the strength in his body had disappeared, and even the world had changed drastically.
He came to a strange place.
There is no anger, no desolation, no madness here.
There is only tranquility, the tranquility of the breeze blowing through the branches of old trees.
He was sitting under the old tree, staring blankly at the new buds growing on the withered branches above his head.
The sound of a finger snap drew His attention back.
He lowered his head and saw an illusory figure sitting in front of him, with a stone table between them.
"It was a critical moment." Bai Wei said with a smile, "Luckily I made it in time. Um... what should I call you? Wildfire? Senluo? Or..."
Bai Wei paused.
"front teeth?"
Wildfire's eyes widened little by little, and he gradually remembered everything.
"Visas!!!" He yelled at Bai Wei.
"Yeah, I heard it." Bai Wei chuckled and said, "Welcome to my paradise."
"Mr. Wildfire who took my teeth."
…
"Bang."
The picture collapsed.
Wildfire's consciousness returned to the divine body.
He is a god after all. If his soul and consciousness had not been torn apart incompletely by Ade, Bai Wei would not have been able to pull him to the Peach Blossom Land in this way. Even if he was pulled to the Peach Blossom Land, it would not last long.
So it only took a few seconds for Wildfire to go from losing consciousness to regaining consciousness.
But these few seconds are the most fatal seconds.
[Divine Art: Embers of the End] failed to be released at the last moment, but the energy of the divine art had already been accumulated.
Naturally, Wildfire was backfired by his own world-destroying magic. The energy that was supposed to destroy the world went into his divine body instead, and his divine body became a piece of cracked ice.
Then there was a "click".
Wildfire's body really cracked like solid ice.
He immediately let out an even more shrill whine, and in this whine there was also a hint of... fear.
Because He smelled the breath of death, the real breath of death, just like it had been a thousand years ago.
So He began His final struggle, trying to reunite His body in the huge pit.
But Bai Wei would not give him that chance again. Magic chains emerged from the ground one after another, biting pieces of his body and dragging him towards the ground, where there was boiling magma.
"No! No!"
He roared and tried to stop it all, because he was not Visas, and without the blessing of divine power, his body could be destroyed.
And now He cannot return to the Kingdom of God. Once His physical body dies, He is truly dead.
But He was completely unable to stop these chains extending from all directions. At this moment, they did not look like chains, but like Ouroboros, a symbol of death, destroying the body of the God bit by bit.
Soon, only the slightly larger part of the head, which was not dragged into the ground, was left of the wildfire.
The rest of the body was annihilated in the flames.
The god of wildfire will die in flames.
Realizing that the outcome could not be changed, the wildfire finally stopped struggling in despair.
He raised his head with great effort and looked at Bai Wei who came before him.
"You win." He whispered, "I have been hiding from you for a thousand years, but still... I couldn't hide from you."
Bai Wei smiled: "Shouldn't it be better not to hide in the first place?"
Wildfire did not answer the question, but slowly closed his eyes.
“Go ahead.” He said, “After all, I died as a God.”
Bai Wei, however, did not take any action.
Yehuo opened his eyes and saw Bai Wei putting his hand on his head, as if stroking it.
This action made Wildfire feel indescribably familiar... and sad.
"Let me see the child again." Bai Wei said softly.
