The fisherman druid is in another world
Chapter 826
Chapter 826
As the saying goes, even a god can be injured or killed if he dares to show his health bar.
The underlying principle behind this 'health bar' is the support of the laws.
One of the effects of the fundamental laws of the material world is that being killed results in death.
Of course, the definition of death can be very complex. For example, if a spirit that a deity has placed in the material world is destroyed, the remaining spirit can only retreat to the spirit world, which is also a kind of death.
After all, death is often not the goal itself, but rather a condition or effect for achieving that goal.
In the Abyss Realm, the general logic of the laws is that half belongs to the Heavenly Dao, since it was originally attached to a demiplane of the Prime Material Plane and was greatly influenced by the laws of the Prime Material Plane.
One-quarter belongs to the demiplane. The laws of the demiplane are not as strict as those of the prime material plane. It is difficult to explain in a few words which aspects are not strict, but its characteristics can be summarized in one sentence: it has the characteristics of the darkness and high pressure of the deep sea.
This is why Black Robb calls it the 'Abyss Realm'.
The remaining quarter of the law is controlled by the Lord of the Abyss.
The Lord of the Abyss is the creator of this demiplane, and the object of his transformation is the law. Specific things and phenomena are merely manifestations of the law.
To this day, the Lord of the Abyss still holds the authority over the modification, constantly influencing the environment here, and can strengthen or weaken it within the scope of his authority.
Black Rob uses two super magic arrays, one on the ground and one underground, to control the laws of the divine realm. Simply put, he takes a portion of what belongs to the Heavenly Dao and the majority of what belongs to the demiplane, giving him a total control of over 40%. Therefore, the demon god that Black Rob spawns can be said to have the strongest geographical advantage among the three forces.
It was through this level of authority that the demon god descended and performed with great fanfare, rather than being just an empty shell.
Of course, the fighting team composed of Holy Spirits was not weak either. When they met on a narrow path, they took the initiative to attack and seemingly successfully withstood the mental impact of the corrupting god, and even launched a counterattack.
This counterattack was a combination attack, and the Holy Spirits showed great coordination. Star Eye contributed the weakness detection, and Lightning Strike contributed the feint attack.
That's not all. The Holy Spirit, codenamed Archer, is the team's main single-target damage dealer. The reason is simple: He has extra buffs.
To be more specific, He possesses a sacred longbow with a handle strongly associated with the laws—the golden spine.
As the Thunderblade attacked the Demon God, the Sharpshooter reached out and pulled his spine from his own back.
For the Holy Spirit, the physical body is merely a tool, let alone a vessel for His coming.
Tools and containers each have their uses, and the current use of the sharpshooter is just one of them.
The spine was pulled out, quickly deformed in his hand, and turned golden. As he drew a bow, a string of light appeared. As the bow was drawn to its fullest extent, an arrow of law, with strange inscriptions on its arrowhead, condensed and took shape.
Although this series of movements can be described as smooth and seamless, in such a top-level battle, it is still a lengthy prelude.
That's why someone needs to cover for you.
Judging from the current situation, Thunderblade seems to have done a very good job.
The high-density lightning bolts emitted by the Thunder Blade, hidden within the waterfall-like thunder, struck the weak point of the demon god detected by Star Eye.
Whether the hole was successfully opened or not, the archer neither knew nor needed to know.
He knew that as the hidden attack of the lightning blade struck, the Demon God's domain-level force field was blasted open, perhaps for only a moment, but that was the opportunity He wanted.
Therefore, the arrow of law was shot out, transforming into a stream of light, arriving first despite being launched later, merging into the waterfall-like lightning attack, almost connecting with the lightning beam, penetrating the demon god's force field, and hitting its weakness.
This time it seems the demon god really got hurt.
He unleashed a wave of psionic shockwaves resembling a 'howl,' though it had no specific target and was merely like a person instinctively yelling after being injured: 'Ouch, that hurts!' But the power it generated was still greater than the famous legendary spell 'Banshee's Howl.'
All the Holy Spirits were affected, to varying degrees, depending entirely on their individual spiritual resistance.
At the same time, the demon god's enormous body displayed an agility completely disproportionate to its size. It suddenly spun around, and its giant tail, covered with rock strata and bone plates, swept towards the lightning blade with the power to shatter mountains and the might to crush everything!
There's no way around it, the Thunderblade's attacks really do attract a lot of aggro.
This attack from the demon god was not a simple physical attack, but an attack based on laws; the physical action was merely a manifestation of those laws.
Moreover, this attack was of a catastrophic level; to be more specific, it was the embodiment of the immense power of heaven and earth that the entire Abyss Realm could unleash.
Compared to the prime material plane, the area of the demiplane determines the upper limit of the power of heaven and earth.
Even so, this attack should not be underestimated, and it was of extremely high importance.
Without the Dragonborn's reminder, the Holy Spirit codenamed Tortoise had already taken the lead.
Lei Ren excels at drawing aggro, but when it comes to defense, Lu Gui in the team is second to none.
The tortoises had never even participated in the excavation of the shaft tunnels; their goal was to conserve their energy so they could withstand the blows in the best possible condition when it mattered most.
This attack from the demon god is one we must withstand.
Not taking the hit will not only disrupt the rhythm, but will also amplify the power of the demon god, making the next attack even heavier and faster!
This involves the application of the laws of the divine realm.
To put it simply, it's like a washing machine. It works the hardest at the beginning, but once it gets going, the water flows more vigorously, making it more effective and less strenuous.
Therefore, only when the main tank (MT) can withstand the demon's attack head-on can the other holy spirits use their combined skills to suppress the demon and prevent it from becoming unstoppable.
The tortoise, already imposing, had become even more muscular, resembling a miniature Titan. However, what was even more eye-catching was the flow of the laws governing its body.
His method has a name: Immovable Barrier.
The immovable barrier is not merely a force field shell that can only envelop the body, but a fusion of freely changing laws and extraordinary forces.
Now, as the tortoise teleports into position, it moves its arms in front of its body.
This power instantly transformed into a massive golden barrier, upon which divine runes flowed, making it exceptionally beautiful.
The demon god's giant tail collided with the barrier with a deafening roar. There was no loud noise, but a destructive energy turbulence erupted, instantly annihilating the surrounding matter and cracking the ground into bottomless ravines.
The ground around the tortoise was deeply sunken, but the soil and rocks beneath its feet were unaffected, and the barrier it supported remained completely still.
"Now!" Xing Tong issued an attack warning.
Whether it's the Thunder Blade or the Divine Archer, they all pave the way for His strike.
Of course, you could also say the other way around: He's responsible for finishing off the enemy.
His finishing blows have a decisive quality, relying not on his own strength, but on activating forbidden spell scrolls.
Instantly, several slender beams of light flew out from the scroll that had turned to ashes and scattered. They leaped and refracted in space in a way that defied common sense, bypassing or avoiding the tentacles wielded by the demon god and the distorted force field of laws. As if guided by fate itself, they entered the area that had just been attacked by the lightning blade and the divine archer with perfect precision.
The moment the arrow struck, time seemed to freeze!
Then, a silent annihilation occurred from within.
The demon god's body suddenly exploded, large chunks of flesh and bone were torn apart by pure energy from the inside out, and foul blood mixed with divine power sprayed out, staining the surrounding underground palace ruins with a strange and colorful hue. Just one look at it made one feel nauseous due to excessive radiation.
At the same time, the demon god unleashed another piercing shriek, powerful enough to tear apart the souls of any being below the legendary level, causing the entire underground palace to tremble. A devastating blow! Overjoyed!
However, the demon god did not fall; instead, he descended into utter madness.
His gigantic, ring-shaped maw expanded to its limit, and eerie green evil energy condensed within it at an unprecedented speed, forming a destructive energy sphere capable of devouring and corrupting everything.
"Abyssal Essence!" the Dragonborn warned the entire group.
This was a critical moment. The so-called Abyss Origin Essence was an attack launched with the power of the Divine Realm, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an extraordinary version of Mushroom Egg.
The time to risk one's life has come. Two lines of silver blood tears flowed from Xing Tong's eyes. He shrieked and transformed all his spiritual energy and life force into an invisible bridge. It was not an attack, but a forced connection that crossed the wound of the demon god and ruthlessly pierced into the deepest part of its consciousness, which seemed to be in a state of chaos and rage.
"His spiritual core...I have torn a crack in it!"
Xing Tong's statement greatly surprised the other members.
Is the soul so easily breached?
But the Dragonborn was unwilling to miss this opportunity, and He decided to gamble.
His figure vanished from his original spot in an instant, and the next moment, he appeared directly in front of the demon god's gaping maw, where energy was about to erupt.
The Dragonborn burned their souls, forging a vessel with the fires of their hearts, transforming it into a sacred spear.
The dragon's demise, too, was forged at the cost of self-sacrifice.
The tip of this spear embodies a power of law compressed to its absolute limit, seemingly capable of ending all existence. Or to be more specific, it is the very concept of 'ending'!
A thrust, imbued with all power and will, and executed with unparalleled precision, is launched with the spear moving like a dragon!
In that instant, the Dragonfall Spear transformed into a beam of light that tore through reality, piercing through the condensed, eerie green sphere of evil energy. It carved a path along the Star Eye by burning its soul, directly piercing the source of the demon god's soul, or rather, its mental body.
Time seemed to stand still again in that instant!
Immediately afterwards, the ball of evil energy flickered violently a few times, and then, like a punctured phantom, silently dissipated and vanished.
The Dragonfall Spear's concept of 'ending' ended the condensation of the Abyss Essence with only its residual power.
The demon god's massive body suddenly stiffened, all movements came to an abrupt halt, and the light of the divine domain force field on its body rapidly dimmed, eventually extinguishing completely.
The destruction of the mental body marked the end of the demon god's existence. He began to slowly crumble and collapse, falling towards that deep rift, as if returning to eternal nothingness.
Within the vast ruins of the underground palace, the surging energy slowly subsided, leaving only utterly ravaged broken walls and lingering, persistent dust of laws and divine power suspended in the air.
The divine radiance of the remaining Holy Spirit stabilized once more, proclaiming victory.
At that moment, no one spoke.
It wasn't because of Xing Tong and Long Yun's sacrifice; as Holy Spirits, sacrificing for the Lord was a realization they all shared.
Their only fear was sacrificing themselves in vain, dying in a way that was not as valuable as they had imagined.
At this very moment, they have this feeling.
The demons died too easily. Their combined attack and the Great Cycle hadn't even begun. How could they have defeated the gods with just the efforts of five holy spirits and the sacrifice of two? It feels unrealistically simplistic.
Furthermore, the aftereffects of the god's fall were too minor. Not only did it not leave behind large fragments of laws, but the abyss domain was also not significantly affected, which is quite unusual.
Gods and the divine realm are closely bound together. Even if a demon god does not have a complete grasp of the laws and authority of the divine realm, the fact that he may appear as a god in this way indicates that his authority has reached a certain level.
And the chain reaction that would result from the demise of such a being is quite terrifying.
Therefore, the Holy Spirits had no mind to speak; they were waiting, or rather, hoping, that the dramatic changes that would affect the entire abyss would eventually come, albeit be late.
In this way, they would be willing to believe that even if the demon god was not dead, he was indeed severely injured and unable to continue to control the divine realm.
But they didn't get what they wanted. It was as if what had just died was merely a giant monster imprisoned in a special arena.
The demon god was of course not dead.
Even if it's a counterfeit product made with advanced technology, the demon god's expressiveness can't possibly be inferior to the abominations created by the Chaotic Ladder.
Even if the opponent is a Holy Spirit, even if there are also supernatural limitations here, a battle involving life and death cannot be as weak as just walls collapsing and houses crumbling, or a few square kilometers of area suffering heavy damage.
'Gudong! '
'Gudong! '
An unusual heartbeat, like the sound of a heavy drum, resounded directly in the hearts of the Holy Spirits.
A mass of indescribable, multicolored objects appeared silently in the sight of the Holy Spirits, transforming from nothingness into reality.
The feeling was extremely strange, as if in the blink of an eye a majestic mountain suddenly appeared beside me, and I was shrouded in its shadow, absurd and oppressive.
The second round begins.
What happened on Black Robo's side was not the return of the demon god, but the arrival of number two.
The previous number one was indeed dead.
Essentially, a matrix of extraordinary AIs specifically designed for warfare was destroyed.
This extraordinary AI matrix comes at a high cost, especially in terms of time; it would take at least twenty months to be ready for use.
Of course, such costs are nothing compared to the costs represented by the Holy Spirit of the gods.
There were also some losses in other aspects, such as more than half of the demon soul was damaged, the extraordinary power was greatly consumed, and a batch of rare extraordinary resources were also lost.
However, such losses are inevitable in any top-tier extraordinary war, which needs no further explanation.
On the contrary, the technological advantages revealed behind these phenomena deserve praise. This is also why Blackrobo can always start from scratch and then quickly catch up and surpass others.
In addition, the system is also very important. As a dictator, Black Rob's power has grown, but the internal constraints are almost negligible, which is also one of his major advantages.
Demon God No. 2 is more powerful than Demon God No. 1.
The reason lies in the sacrifice of Star Eyes and Dragonborn. To put it another way, it's like foreign meat rotting in the pot. From the perspective of meat soup, it naturally becomes more nutritious and delicious.
But Black Robb happens to be a top-notch chef.
He was also in charge of cooking the pot for the underground palace.
They used it in a flash.
As soon as Demon God No. 2 appeared, it made a splash. The Holy Spirits were shocked to find that the moment their minds were captured by Demon God No. 2, the environment had changed drastically. At this moment, they stood on the earth, under the sky. However, the dark sky was quite desolate, with only a scarlet star shining brightly, exuding an ominous aura.
The Holy Spirits glanced at it and instinctively realized that this star was the future sun. Once Black Robb obtained the power of the sunset, this star would shine brightly and become the sun!
Time is running out for them...
