Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 307 Remnants

[It's already started!]

In the blink of an eye, Mu Xiang unleashed a blinding blade of light from Ji Yue, weaving a cage of sword energy in the air.

This was certainly not to kill the soon-to-be-descended saint, but to prevent more energy from flowing into the idol!

The energy drawn from the ambassador's body was largely annihilated amidst the dense barrage of sword light; even so, more energy still surged into the statue.

A suction force seemed to emerge from within the statue, and it was this force that intercepted the fragmented green light. Even though it had been reduced to scattered specks of light, some green light was still spared from annihilation and, under this pull, merged into the statue.

Mu Xiang's right hand erupted with dazzling golden light, like a great sun rising in his hand. This golden light caused Ji Yue to tremble, leaping out of Mu Xiang's hand and hovering high in the air, scattering the blade light mixed with golden light in all directions.

Then, Mu Xiang directly swooped down, mask in hand. Summoning their holy positions would inevitably require energy... and judging from the style of the Polar Day Gathering, besides the ambassador who initiated the ceremony, only the chief military officer and the giant puppet below could provide the energy!
If the ritual cannot be interrupted, then minimize the energy flowing into the statue... This is why Mu Xiang abandoned the destruction earlier and directly began to strangle the green light that the ambassador had transformed into.

The cold, authoritative voice of the Supreme God echoed in my ears: "You have obtained the plot item, the Mask of Existence (Fragment)... Those who have entered the fourth stage of the Gene Lock can drip their essence blood to create an imprinted mask that stores memories and abilities for one day. Anyone who is not at the fourth stage of the Gene Lock or above cannot drip their essence blood and forcibly wear the Mask of Existence (Fragment), resulting in physical and mental mutations that cannot be healed by the Supreme God. This item can be created or worn a total of three times."

[Disabled?]

Mu Xiang seemed to understand something, but now was not the time to hesitate... He directly put the mask into the bracelet.

Even in his candle-wielding state, though he hadn't activated his fourth-tier gene lock, his power was still enough to take down an opponent with a single kick. No one could see his downward thrust clearly, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of the chief military officer.

The chief military officer's face was extremely ugly, but not because of Mu Xiang's attack... In fact, he only noticed something when Mu Xiang's face was close to his. The next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and a huge force kicked him away.

Mu Xiang moved without stopping, weaving left and right among Zheng Zha's black flames. He dodged one of Zheng Zha's claws and struck Zheng Zha's shoulder with a backhand, causing the blood-red giant to stagger outwards. He managed to grab the giant puppet along with the black flames. The boundless sword energy on his palm then swept directly onto the giant puppet.

Behind him roared Zheng Zha, and a sense of threat emanated from the scorching air around him... It was the omnipresent black flames!

But Mu Xiang ignored him and continued to charge forward... Everyone's movements seemed incredibly slow to him. Before the chief military officer had even landed and his ugly expression had changed, Mu Xiang kicked him between the legs again, sending him flying into the air.

Mu Xiang didn't hear any breaking sound, which made him think maliciously, "Did these octopuses put all that stuff into their heads?"

The chief military officer's screams rang out at this moment. To him, on one side was the idol that could use him as raw material at any time, and on the other side was the reincarnator's crazy attack without regard for the cost. The twisted expression made his already strange face even more ferocious.

Watching the chief military officer transform into a shooting star radiating green light and hurtle straight towards the ceiling, Mu Xiang also leaped up, pushing off the ground with his foot. The Limitless Sword Qi in his hand continuously condensed, coiling around his sword fingers before being held in his palm.

"Sword Qi Thunder Sound!"

Amidst screams, the chief military officer was shattered by the shooting sword energy, his pale flesh, coated in green blood, scattering through the air; the green blood, barely splattered, transformed into droplets of green light. Mu Xiang, radiating golden light, arrived, chasing after the countless green specks of starlight with his raging Kryptonian energy.

The indiscriminate interception of the divine computer affected everyone except the already deceased ambassador; even the chief military officer was no exception. Dispersing into green light, he instinctively tried to escape, but was blocked by dense magical runes. Even his high-speed movement in his physical form was thanks to Mu Xiang's immense strength.

Mu Xiang clapped his hands together, completely annihilating the green light on both sides. The demonic runes surrounding his body and the subconscious resistance of the green light caused the golden light around him to fluctuate.

The excruciating pain inside his body was growing stronger. Although some of the effects of unlocking the gene lock last time were still present, Mu Xiang was no longer able to heal himself in the same way.

Just then, an incredibly shrill roar exploded in Mu Xiang's ears. The remaining green light was compressed together by an invisible force, transforming into a jade-like solid. Outside the jade, one magical rune after another emerged, and the familiar suction force made Mu Xiang turn his head to look at the statue.

The statue has opened its eyes and is silently watching this side.

The remaining part of the chief military officer was still directly absorbed... Despite the sacrifice of countless people, and despite the fact that as a high-ranking member, he understood the principle of sacrificing himself for the master... But when complete death fell on the demigod who had spent his life in asceticism, how could he easily let it go?
The previously faint singing grew louder and louder, and Mu Xiang knew that it was a sacred song.

The threat wasn't yet lethal... clearly, his clone wasn't at the Saint level.

[So, he's most likely a low-level Saint... Judging from the form of the Midnight Sun Assembly, the possibility of him being a Saint is not high; he's more like a remnant of a Saint from an old era.]

So... his strength is at the level of a spirit rank!

Mu Xiang ignored the statue over there. He didn't expect to be able to stop the arrival of the fifth-tier being without activating his gene lock... He didn't understand the mechanism, and his realm was inferior. He was essentially alone, so it was better to play it safe and weaken the opponent as much as possible.

He rushed to the battleground between Zheng Zha and the giant puppet, and punched between them.

Zheng Zha's Asura Battle Body was indeed imposing, but compared to the giant puppet that had grown significantly larger, it still appeared small. Yet, this blood-red giant, now smaller, was clinging tightly to the wrecked giant puppet.

The enormous body was so helpless in the black flames. Without the command of the ambassador and the chief military officer, it could only struggle in vain, while the black flames burned away layer after layer of its body, like a piece of roasted fat.

The powerful wind and golden light completely shattered the giant puppet's head. The green light that emerged from it, though possessing a strange magical pattern structure, was directly annihilated by the raging Kryptonian energy. Its remaining body trembled violently amidst the black flames.

Enraged by Mu Xiang's punch, Zheng Zha immediately unleashed a torrent of black flames towards Mu Xiang.

[My breath is fogging up again...I wonder if Zhang Jie sees me like that too?]

Mu Xiang dodged the black flames, which were far too slow for him, and kicked Zheng Zha away with a powerful kick. Just as he reached out to grab the writhing remains of the giant puppet, a demonic rune lit up the ground.
