I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic.

Chapter 685 Return of Life
In the small world of [Misty Wilderness],
Not to mention the ruins below, even the solidified small world could not withstand the impact of this horrific explosion.

At the moment when the deafening explosion sounded, it seemed as if the whole world was muted.

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable wave of terror swept over like a surging tide.

The place where the ruins were originally located was torn into pieces by this force in an instant, and the space where the ruins were located was also easily torn like thin paper under the impact of this force.

One after another hideous space cracks appeared out of nowhere. They were like the bloody mouths of giant beasts, with cold and dangerous light flashing on the edges, as if ready to devour any living creature that approached.

Not only are these cracks deep and boundless, but they are also expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. Each expansion is accompanied by a sharp scream of space distortion, which is chilling.

What’s even more terrifying is that as the space cracks spread, dangerous space turbulence is also rampant in this cursed space.

These turbulences not only carry powerful spatial fluctuations, but also contain the power to tear apart any creature that dares to set foot in this area, instantly annihilating all beings caught in it.

In this space shrouded in terror, there is only endless darkness, distortion and destruction.

After the aftermath of the explosion finally dissipated, two figures appeared in the distance of the space crack.

These two people are Rune and Holmes.

However, the conditions of the two are now very bad. Although they were not in the core area of ​​the horrific explosion just now, they also suffered a terrible impact.

Who could have thought that the World Tree's Blessed One would so decisively choose to self-destruct and die together with Juliana?
Is he so desperate?

Holmes looked very unhappy. He was not a muscular man and he almost lost half his life in the explosion just now.

Julianna wasn't so lucky.

Just now, Li Si was protecting herself and she was at the core of the explosion. At the same time, she was tied up by Li Si and had no way to escape.

And although Juliana is very powerful, she is just a professional assassin.

Holmes shook his head. He could no longer sense any trace of Juliana.

Similarly, Li Si's breath disappeared without a trace.

However, being able to kill the World Tree's followers seems to be a good deal at this price.

Looking at the ever-expanding space crack in front of him, Holmes felt a little frightened.

Thinking of this, Holmes felt much better.

As long as he is not the one to pay the price, the result will naturally be acceptable.

The space that they had solidified using precious props was destroyed like this. They didn't even dare to think about what he would do if he faced this attack.

The spreading trend of the space cracks before our eyes is irreversible. It won't be long before it engulfs the surrounding space and eventually lead to the destruction of the [Misty Wilderness] small world.

It’s better to leave as soon as possible. He doesn’t want to face Li Si’s helpers who will arrive later.

Thinking of this, Holmes turned and looked at Rune beside him.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard Rune's face turn extremely ugly.

What's happening here?
Could it be that because Li Si's body was not left for successful sacrifice, his hunting ritual did not receive a satisfactory response?
There was nothing they could do about it. Li Si had been forced by them to self-destruct. Even though they were stronger, could they still stop Li Si from fighting to the death?
Holmes shook his head and said:
"Let's go, Rune."

"This is the best result. At least the hunting ritual is completed, right?"

"If we don't leave now, it will be troublesome if those stubborn people from the Church of the Gods come over later."

"hateful!"

Holmes's persuasion did not have any effect, but instead seemed to have electrocuted Rune.

A terrifying and ferocious aura exploded from his body, sweeping around, crazy and angry.

"He's not dead!"

"He is not dead!"

“How did he do that!!!”

"Damn Li Si, damn World Tree Blessed One, I will tear you to pieces!"

Rune instantly fell into extreme madness, angrily attacking those around him, venting his anger.

This indiscriminate attack even involved Holmes.

After he dodged in a panic, he didn't have time to get angry and was shocked by Rune's words.

what?
Li Si is not dead?

how can that be!

Whether it was the initial exploration or the subsequent battle, Holmes could be sure that Li Si who appeared here was his real self, not some clone.

Holmes has mastered the ability of the Lord of All Beasts to create clones of all beasts, and has reached the level of all beasts. His mastery of clone-related abilities is quite impressive among legends.

Moreover, the special ability of the Hundred Beasts Clone allows him to distinguish the enemy's breath and check whether the opponent is himself or a clone.

After entering this small world, in addition to him, Rune also used the ability inherited from the God of Hunting to confirm the situation of Li Si who appeared here.

The reason why they made so many preparations was because they knew that Li Si had mastered a special skill of clones and possessed some real strength.

In order to ensure that the previous preparations were not wasted, they naturally had to make sure that the person being besieged was Li Si in real life.

But now, Rune actually said that Li Si is not dead?
impossible!
The three of them made sufficient preparations and blocked any chance of Li Si's escape.

Even the power from the god level has been mobilized!

Of course, if it weren't for the limited endurance of this small world, if too much divine power was invested, it might directly collapse the space and allow Li Si to escape. They might even have to pay a greater price.

If Li Si was not the one favored by the World Tree, they would never have been able to spend such a huge price.

This kind of situation is almost equivalent to besieging the Pope of a certain Church of Gods.

But even so, is the final result still a failure?
Holmes took a look at the mad Rune and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Among the three, Lu En paid the highest price. In order to get the help of others to stop Li Si's helpers, he bleeds a lot. If the plan goes smoothly, he will also gain the most.

Holmes roughly estimated in his mind that if he could really kill Li Si successfully and use him as a sacrifice in the hunting ritual, the Rune that was granted might even reach the critical point on the road to deification and begin to try the deification ritual to ignite the divine fire.

And now, all the efforts have almost come to nothing.

Even if Li Si paid a huge price to save his life, the hunting ritual failed.

The reason why Rune was like this, completely different from his previous magnanimity, was because the losses from this failure were too great.

However, Holmes had no intention of sharing the burden with Rune.

Just kidding, he is being very polite by not cheating Rune now.

Seeing Rune losing his mind like a wild beast, Holmes did not try to persuade him anymore, but hurried away.

Although I don't want to believe it, Rune's condition cannot be faked.

If we fail this time, it will be even more troublesome to take action against Li Si next time.

Holmes frowned, looking a little upset.

It is really troublesome for the Church of Beasts to be targeted by such a being!
When Li Si opened his eyes again and looked at the dark space in front of him, he felt at ease.

This is a closed space he specially arranged outside the small world of [Misty Wilderness], using the space spell of Teacher Sphinx, so it is absolutely safe.

However, his mind was still on the battle just now.

In fact, this was also the most thrilling battle Li Si had experienced after breaking through the legend, and it brought him a considerable impact.

Even though Li Si was fighting one against three for so long and even maintained a balance, it was not because Li Si's strength had reached that level.

It was mostly because the other party was sure that they would be able to defeat Li Si once he fell into the trap, so they did not use their full strength.

Of course, it is also possible that they are afraid of his life-and-death attack, so they are all on guard.

But even so, Li Si still seized the opportunity and dragged the [Torture Executioner] Julianna to die together.

With Li Si's current strength, it is actually quite difficult for him to drag the opponent to death together with him, but he has made sufficient preparations for this.

The first thing was to observe carefully during the battle and choose the legendary assassin Julianna who was weaker and had a thinner health bar.

In addition, after foreseeing the possibility of being besieged, Li Si went into seclusion and used the nine-ring spell [Meteor Explosion] as a template to create his own arcane spells [Longevity of Heaven and Earth, Destruction of All Jade and Stone, Ragnarok, and Absolute Annihilation]!
It’s just that the target of this spell is himself, so it has such terrifying power.

Of course, Li Si didn't create this skill to really commit suicide.

Before entering the small world of [Misty Wilderness], he had prepared everything.

Li Si knew very well that the trap set by the other party was definitely intended to kill him in one fell swoop.

So he will definitely not get away easily.

Even if he prepared more, there was a high possibility that he would not be able to break through the opponent's blockade.

After all, the other party is very likely to use the power of the divine level, which is difficult for Li Si to resist now.

However, a new ability that Li Si had mastered opened up a whole new option for him.

That is Li Si's specialty [Incarnation of All Spirits], which brings the special ability [Return of Life] to the life clone!
The effect of this ability is also quite simple and crude, which is to allow Li Si to switch the state of his real body and his life clone.

In other words, this special ability allows Li Si to let his life clone die for him.

As long as the life clone is in a safe position, Li Si's real body will appear at the position of the life clone after [Life Returns], and the life clone will be replaced at the position of Li Si's real body.

This kind of "return" is in a sense equivalent to the ability of cause and effect and destiny, rather than space teleportation.

Therefore, basically, space blockade and other related abilities have no way to restrict Li Si's [return].

It can even directly transfer the effect of Li Si's self-destruction to his life clone, which is simply a rogue existence.

This kind of survivability is even equivalent to the player's [rebirth] ability, which makes Li Si more confident.

Of course, the ability of [Life Return] still has certain limitations.

First, this ability must and can only be exerted in Li Si's real body and life clone. Other clones do not have this ability.

Secondly, after using [Life Return], the life clone will temporarily lose all its strength, even if it is not destroyed or killed, and become the same as an ordinary person. It will not be able to use [Life Return] again before recovery.

Now, Li Si sensed it slightly and realized that it would take at least a year for the life clone to recover.

Li Si didn't care too much.

The ability of [Life Return] is already quite amazing. Even with a one-year cooldown period, it can still become Li Si's biggest life-saving trump card.

Moreover, [Longevity of Heaven and Earth·Destruction of All Jade and Stone·Ragnarok·Absolute Annihilation] is simply the most suitable ability for [Life Return].

A legend who dares to self-destruct with you at any time, are you afraid?
This is simply a powerful weapon for group attacks!
However, Li Si did not dare to use this ability at will, after all, the scope of impact was too wide.

The small world of the foggy wilderness is okay, there are not many living creatures.

If used casually in the main world of Gaia, Li Si estimated that he would soon be removed from the World Tree due to excessive casualties.

After [Life Returned], all the negative effects imposed on Li Si by Rune and others were lifted.

In other words, the Son of God Rune had no way of detecting his location, so Li Si was not in a hurry to leave.

Without the space blockade, even if three more Sons of God came, they would not be able to forcibly stop Li Si from leaving.

However, this battle made Li Si feel the danger of death.

In fact, the feeling when the life clone exploded still remained in Li Si's mind, making him unable to forget it for a long time.

After taking such a great risk, Li Si gained a lot after he found out who was targeting him and gained considerable confidence.
