From the end of the world

Chapter 563 VS The Great Demon of Disaster 1
I flew high into the sky, and it was as if my body had become a real sun, illuminating an area of ​​dozens of kilometers around me. The afterlife, which could never escape darkness, seemed to have finally welcomed daylight.

Along with the flames, there was also an endless sea of ​​fire. This was not an attack, I just turned the area I was in into my home turf. The sea of ​​fire would turn all matter, including air and soil, into fuel, feeding my body and soul. In this process, since I couldn't put the Great Demon of Disaster on my whitelist, it would of course have an impact on it.

If it were an ordinary person, even a demon hunter, or even a demigod of the Great Perfection level, they would all be reduced to ashes in this sea of ​​fire. However, for the Great Demon of Disaster, this sea of ​​fire was at most equivalent to soaking it in hot bath water. Apart from discomfort and discomfort, most people would not feel any negative effects.

As if provoked, the Great Demon of Disaster roared like an ancient monster, and then rushed towards me at a speed more than a thousand times the speed of sound, crossing the sea of ​​fire.

I don't know if the other person has the same emotions as me. I have a strong urge to compete with this person who is like another me. This is also because the other person has hurt Ma Zao and hunted Xiao Wan, and I also want to avenge my two partners.

So even when I saw the opponent rushing towards me with great vigor and ambition, I had no intention of avoiding the attack. Instead, I increased my speed to the peak and collided with him head-on.

Over there is a 50-60 meter tall black flame demon, and over here is a 1.7 meter tall humanoid figure of light. The size contrast is really huge, and so is the color contrast. At first glance, it seems like the power of light is clashing with the power of darkness, reminiscent of a classic magic story. But what is actually going on?
If it is the "eclipse", then I am the "corona".

In the definition of astronomy, the "corona" is the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere. It is also the source of the solar wind. It is a part that cannot be completely restrained by the sun's gravity. It has a super high temperature of millions of degrees Celsius. It cannot be observed by the naked eye under normal circumstances, but it becomes clearly visible during a total solar eclipse.

The source of the power of the third form is the ultra-high density flame that erupts from the slag straight sword, a power that I cannot fully control. This light and heat that spreads unsteadily beyond my own framework is my "corona". The third form can also be named "corona form".

In fact, this is also a form of "wrong evolution". Although it is the means of combat that I have to rely on now, and it can be said to be very powerful, but in the final analysis, relying on temporary forms to become stronger is itself a kind of evil way, proving that I am still a novice who lags behind the old-fashioned big impermanence like Huangquan and Mingzhuo.

The ten-kilometer space disappeared in the blink of an eye, and my body and the Great Demon of Disaster collided with each other in a straight line. I seemed to have turned into a bullet, shooting through the opponent's torso.

However, the actual result of the collision was completely different.

I felt like I was riding a motorcycle at full speed and crashing into a concrete telephone pole, and the huge reaction force sent me flying.

The opponent's body was surprisingly strong. It was a body condensed from fire like mine, but its defense was incredibly high.

Speaking of flames, they are not "solid". I believe many people have done such boring and stupid things as "quickly brushing the flame on the lighter with your palm". Flames are just a kind of imaginary substance. Although the Great Demon of Disaster should have the skill of "transforming flames into entities with collision volume" like me, flames are ultimately a force with low defense. But the result is completely opposite. I can say that I was hit and my head was bleeding, and my whole body was "broken". For a while, I almost couldn't tell the difference.

The other party didn't seem to be unscathed either.

No matter what I hit, it would cause an earth-shattering explosion. The same was true when I hit the Great Demon of Disaster. In the shock wave of the explosion that was enough to destroy hundreds of kilometers in radius, the Great Demon of Disaster was also blown away.

I could see that a hole had been blown out of its soul. If this collision had landed on Huang Quan, even if he didn't die, he would at least have been severely injured. But for the Great Demon of Disaster, it seemed to be just a flesh wound. There was obvious "bleeding" and "bruises", but it was not enough to affect his performance in the subsequent battle.

Even the gap itself was regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it would be fully restored in less than two seconds.

Let’s not talk about the recovery ability first. Where does it get such high defense?
This cannot be explained by "high density".

After just one collision, I could tell that, in terms of density alone, I in "corona form" and it in "eclipse form" were on par with each other. How could it be possible that I was severely damaged while it was only injured to that extent?

Could it be that the "eclipse" that makes up its body is an inward force, while the "corona" that makes up my body is an outward force?
I healed my own injuries in a flash, while attempting to manipulate its flames to hamper its regeneration process.

This is something I have wanted to try before. Since the other party uses the power of fire, and is even equivalent to another me, then its fire is of course my fire. For a while, I even suspected that the other party's existence might be the "firefly" that attracted me to the "doomsday era". Although it was later disproven, I still wanted to try it again.

My mind was like a computer data cable, trying to connect to a computer other than my own. Soon, my plug found the other side's socket and entered it.

Being able to enter meant that there was nothing wrong with this direction, and the opponent's strength could also be regarded as my strength. But then, I couldn't help but be stunned.

It was completely different from what I imagined. Since I was a "computer", then the other person, as another me, should also be a "computer". Even if there were huge differences in "configuration" (evolutionary path), the most basic principle framework should be similar.

To put it another way, I was actually prepared for the huge difference between us. After all, the other party was the Doomsday Demon summoned by Naraku Gospel, and I was just a human being, so mana, which was based on spirituality, would definitely be significantly different.

Moreover, Naraku Gospel may not be able to restore the nature of my "apparition". That is the dream that Shan Liangyi has been pursuing for countless years without being able to glimpse the path, and it is also a legendary realm closely related to "self-realization of the true spirit". I don't think it is something that can be simulated casually.

I had thought of all these, but the differences on the other side were totally beyond my expectations.

First of all, the power used by the Great Demon of Disaster is not fire power at all.

I already knew that its power was a product of an erroneous evolution that deviated from the main purpose of flame. But even if it was an erroneous evolution of flame, it was a product that branched off from the main trunk of "flame". How could it be something completely different in nature?
The same seeds may produce different results under different cultivation conditions. The ancients said that "oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, and those grown in the north of the Huai River are tangerines." However, both oranges and tangerines have the same plant essence. It is impossible for an orange planted in the south to be an orange, and a orange planted in the north to be a cat.

The difference between the power of the Great Demon of Disaster and my flame is so huge.

If this side could not connect normally... No, even if this side could connect normally, I couldn't help but doubt again whether "the Great Demon of Disaster is another me".

I was still surprised when the connection with the other party was suddenly disconnected. The "data line" entering the other party's "socket" seemed to be discovered by the other party in time and was roughly torn off. This is not surprising. In terms of the authority to control the flame, the relationship between me and the Great Demon of Disaster is equal. Since I can try to interfere with it, it can of course refuse my intervention. There is no reason for only me to exert influence unilaterally.

The Great Demon of Disaster launched another massive attack. It rushed towards me, waving its arms to manipulate the black flames, sweeping towards me like an overwhelming curtain. I reflexively tried to dodge, but I felt a powerful locking force on me.

The black flame, like the "solar eclipse", has a very deep gravity. Not only is it a physical gravity, but it is also a kind of gravity on the level of fate. It is as if it is saying "I am destined to be burned to ashes by the black flame", and it has the attribute of "definitely hit and kill".

For some reason, I thought of the concept of "tidal locking" in astronomy.

It is said that under the influence of the gravity of a star or planet, a satellite orbiting the star or planet will easily become forced to have only one side facing the celestial body that captured it. This is because the gravity on the front and back of the satellite is inconsistent. The reason why humans cannot observe the back of the moon and why Mercury always has only one side facing the sun is because of the influence of tidal locking.

Although the Great Impermanence can simulate the power of fate locking, the power of fate locking exerted by the Great Demon of Disaster is somehow particularly strong, enough to rival me who has been blessed by the small bowl.

Normally, I couldn't avoid this attack, so I could only take it. Fortunately, the blessing from the small bowl was still going on at this moment, and my hit rate and dodge rate also had a strong bonus, which was enough to offset the lock of the Great Demon of Disaster. In the critical moment, I immediately gathered my mind, flew at full speed to avoid it, and narrowly escaped from the sweeping range of the black flames.

The power of the fate lock of the Great Demon of Disaster is very wrong. I understand that a large part of this power should come from the gravity of "Eclipse", but the gravity of "Eclipse" should be just a byproduct of the skill. Just like when I manipulate fire, it will also form a strong wind around me due to the convection of air heat and cold, but it does not mean that I have the ability to directly manipulate the strong wind.

Of course, I can use the power of words to command the wind, but that is still a layer of separation. The Great Impermanence, who can directly control the wind, can probably expand more abstract properties based on the concept of "wind", but I can't do that. And the Great Demon of Disaster itself should not have the power to directly control gravity, let alone expand the power to lock the fate of others.

Thinking about its previous puzzling restraint on the Great Demon Xuanwu, the powerful defense it is showing now, and the fact that it does not seem to be using the power of fire, a possibility that seems outrageous at first glance but actually makes sense slowly emerged in my mind.

The demon of disaster swung its huge monster-like claws and slashed at me fiercely. But this time, I did not collide with it again.

In order to verify my guess, I retreated as quickly as possible and came to the vicinity of a mountain range.
