Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 416 Helping Hand
"Law Definition: Here, energy dissipation is halved."

Krystal intervened at the right time, forcibly modifying the local rules, effectively suppressing the impact of the explosion, protecting her own side, and slightly limiting Kevin's full power.

The battle reached a stalemate.

Kevin's killing sword energy can erode divine power, Hathaway's ocean power is boundless and limitless, and Cerudela's laws are unpredictable and difficult to defend against.

The three forces collided violently, causing the sky to shift dramatically between blood red, azure, and dark blue, while the earth continued to crack and sink, as if the end of the world had arrived.

After failing to break through for a long time, a faint hint of impatience seemed to flash in Kevin's empty eyes.

After parrying Heather's trident strike once again, he did something that surprised everyone—he let go.

The infamous Asura Demon Sword, which inspired fear in all who heard of it, let out a reluctant hum, transformed into a streak of blood-red light, and with a clang, embedded itself diagonally into a huge dark red rock in the distance, trembling slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Kevin's right hand, which was loosely clenched, reached out into the void—the very spot where the strange greatsword that had previously pinned down Tang Chen, the King of Slaughter, had originally been.

"Om-!"

A blazing light appeared out of nowhere, as if a miniature sun had been born in his hand.

He slowly drew out a grotesque, alien-shaped greatsword, shrouded in an aura of destruction.

At the hilt of the sword, the crimson core of the Herrscher pulsated like a living thing, radiating a destructive power that would make even gods tremble.

Heavenly Judgment - Annihilation Form.

The moment the sword appeared, the temperature in the entire Killing City suddenly soared from frigid to scorching hot.

The air was distorted by the high temperature, crackling and popping, and the rocks on the ground below even began to melt and vaporize.

"What...what kind of weapon is that?"

Heather felt the destructive aura that far surpassed that of the Asura Demon Sword, and her expression became more solemn than ever before.

Kevin gripped the Greatsword of Annihilation tightly, his eyes becoming even more vacant and focused.

He abandoned all emotions and transformed into the ultimate weapon that exists solely for "destruction".

He gripped his sword with both hands and, facing his two opponents who were waiting in ambush, simply swept it forward.

There is no skill, only destruction.

A torrent of flames, blazing white and intertwined with destructive dark red, roared out like a ferocious beast breaking free of its cage.

Wherever the flames passed, space was not torn apart, but directly annihilated, leaving behind a shocking, long-lasting, black void trail.

"Be careful."

Kerudela cried out and thrust her hands forward with a sudden burst of energy.

"The law is an iron wall, impervious to all laws."

Layer upon layer of transparent barriers, constructed from pure laws, instantly formed, blocking the torrent of flames.

However, in the face of the raging flames of annihilation, these solid barriers of laws crumbled and melted like thin paper in the face of fire.

Krydella groaned, her face turning slightly pale. Although her legal powers were strong, she was unable to completely resist this extremely pure power of "destruction".

"Vast Ocean Protector!"

Hathaway thrust her golden trident forward, and the purest ocean power transformed into a deep, starry, and heavy blue light curtain, protecting her and Crydella behind her.

The next moment, the destructive torrent of heavenly fire crashed violently into the protective barrier of the vast sea.

"boom--------!!!"

A terrifying roar shook the heavens and the earth, as the blazing white flames and the deep blue light frantically eroded and annihilated each other.

An energy storm swept out, vaporizing everything around it.

A huge, ring-shaped crater, resembling a meteorite impact, formed below the point of impact, with churning, instantly vitrified magma at the bottom.

Hazel gritted her teeth, the light on her divine armor flashing violently, her divine power being consumed at an unprecedented rate.

But her eyes were resolute, and the primal power of the ocean was inexhaustible, allowing her to withstand this world-destroying blow.

When Kevin saw that the Heavenly Flame had been blocked, a slight ripple appeared in his empty eyes for the first time.

He no longer held back and began to unleash a deeper power.

An aura far more primal and violent than Parvati Frost awakened within him.

His body began to mutate; dark keratin appeared under his skin, and his bones made a teeth-grinding twisting sound, as if hundreds or thousands of Honkai Beast factors were roaring within him simultaneously.

Man-made collapse - Karmic demon form.

He was no longer that cold human form, but covered in pitch-black strange objects, like a demon descending into the abyss.

When Kevin enters his Demon form, his strength, speed, and reaction time increase exponentially.

He wielded the Greatsword of Annihilation, unleashing a variety of incredible combat techniques.

Sometimes it unleashes icy sword energy that freezes space, sometimes it triggers eruptions of earth fire, and sometimes it launches surprise attacks with speeds beyond the reach of sight.

Faced with Kevin's rapidly increasing strength, Heather and Crydella also pushed their teamwork to its absolute limit.

Heseyin fully utilizes the divine skills of the sea god, using Unstable Winds to restrict the opponent's movements, White Clouds for a Thousand Years to defuse fatal attacks, and Sea Sun to launch a powerful counterattack.

Her figure blended seamlessly with the waves, embodying both strength and gentleness.

Kruldala, on the other hand, acts as the most sophisticated command center, constantly switching between legal commands.

When Kevin unleashed a wide-area freeze, she immediately declared, "Here, the laws of ice are ineffective."

When Kevin tries to overpower her with absolute speed, she applies "global gravity increase".

She can even briefly construct a "reflection barrier" to deflect some attacks back.

The battle has escalated to the level of laws.

Kevin once plunged the Greatsword of Annihilation into the earth, unleashing the destructive power it contained. A scorching sword mark that stretched for thousands of miles suddenly erupted, as if it were truly going to give Douluo Star a "middle part".

Wherever the sword marks passed, everything was annihilated, and the spatial structure became unstable.

Faced with this devastating attack, Hathaway and Crydela joined forces, their divine power and legal authority complementing each other to form a blue-gold barrier that stretched across the heavens and earth, forcefully blocking the "comb-parted" strike.

Although the barrier was riddled with cracks and golden divine blood spilled from the corners of their mouths, they ultimately managed to block it.

"This can't go on like this."

Hathaway and Crydella stood side by side, both stunning goddesses looking somewhat disheveled.

The radiance on his divine gear had dimmed slightly, and his breathing was almost imperceptibly rapid.

The continuous high-intensity battles, especially against Kevin's terrifying power, had greatly depleted their divine strength and mental energy.

However, their eyes were more determined than ever before, showing no sign of backing down.

Kevin, transformed into a karmic demon, hovered in the air. The aura of destruction emanating from the Greatsword of Annihilation pulsed like breath, repeatedly impacting the crumbling spatial structure. His empty eyes were locked on his two opponents, as if calculating the power required for destruction.

"What a respectable soldier! To show my respect, I will give it my all."

Heather gently stroked the shaft of the golden trident, and the vast ocean power began to compress and condense inwards without regard for anything else. The azure divine light emanating from her body became increasingly profound, even taking on a touch of martyr-like blazing brightness.

The azure flames on Crydella's crown also surged violently. She could only do her best to assist Heather now, after all, she was not a demigod known for her fighting prowess.

Faced with an unparalleled warrior like Kevin, only an equally invincible warrior like Heather could match him.

The corrupted Kevin sensed his opponent's battle intent rising to its peak. His demonic body lowered slightly, and the light of the Herrscher core on the Greatsword of Annihilation surged. The aura of the end began to gather like a tsunami.

The final collision is imminent.

At this critical moment——

Zheng——!
A sword aura, seemingly capable of shattering stars and freezing the Milky Way, tore through the distant sky without warning, hurtling towards us at a speed exceeding the speed of sound.

Wherever the sword energy passed, space was neatly sliced ​​open, leaving behind a smooth, mirror-like frozen surface.

Several towering, blood-stained, dark red mountain peaks along the way were silently cleaved in two the instant the sword energy swept past them. The broken edges were covered with eternally unmelting, dark blue ice, exuding a chilling and deathly aura amidst the raging energy storm.

This sudden sword strike, aimed directly at Kevin, instantly shattered the balance.

Kevin, who had transformed into a demon, suddenly turned his head, and the purest and most powerful slash was reflected in his empty eyes.

Even he felt a sharpness and chill from that sword strike that threatened his life.

He had no choice but to abruptly stop charging up his power. With a backhand swing of the Calamity Annihilation Greatsword, a burning sword aura burst forth.

"laugh--!"

The icy blue sword energy and the fiery red sword energy collided fiercely, the extreme cold and extreme heat clashing wildly.

A large amount of white mist rose up. It was a hasty attack after all. The fiery red sword energy was shattered, but the icy sword energy itself also dissipated by more than half. However, the residual chill still penetrated through, causing a thin layer of ice to condense on the surface of Kevin's demon form, and his movements suddenly slowed down.

This earth-shattering sword strike caused Heather and Crydela's battle intent, which had reached its peak, to falter. They immediately looked in the direction from which the sword energy originated.

In the distance, two figures stood leisurely on the horizon.

The leader wore a military uniform in a blend of sky blue and smoky blue, with a black eye patch covering his eyes, but it couldn't hide the sword intent that seemed to pierce the soul.

Her long, silvery-white hair flew wildly in the energy storm, and the "Ephemeral Flower Sword" in her hand, formed from solid ice, emitted a faint, ethereal light.

It is the Mirror Flow.

Beside her, Lu Jingming was waving and grinning at Heather and Kryudela, showing no sign of the tension one might expect from someone on the battlefield.

“Kyoryu, and… him.”

A strange light flashed in Hathaway's eyes.

Kerudela nodded slightly and calmly analyzed:

"He arrived just in time; his rhythm was disrupted."

In the center of the battlefield, Kevin slowly turned around, the frost on his demonic body evaporating from the rising scorching heat.

For the first time, his empty gaze was completely locked onto the new enemy—Kyoryu.

He sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the woman whose eyes were veiled in black.

Faced with this terrifying demon, Jingliu showed no fear; instead, a smile of pleasure curved his lips.

Beneath the black veil, what she "saw" was not a monster, but an unprecedented, almost godlike, formidable opponent.

"I wonder if my sword can sever the demon that has entered the abyss."

She whispered softly, her figure transforming into a streak of light as she shot straight out.

The sword light flashed from the new moon to the full moon, like the cycle of the moon, cold and chilling.

The battle between Jingliu and Kevin has already transcended the realm that can be described by common sense.

Two streaks of light—one a chilling, moon-white radiance, the other a blazing, violent, dark red karmic fire—collided wildly between the shattered sky and the earth, like two out-of-control meteors.

One second ago, they were thousands of meters in the air, the Ephemeral Flower Sword and the Calamity Extinction Great Sword fiercely clashing, the shockwaves from the explosion tearing the clouds to shreds, and ice crystals and sparks rained down like a storm.

The next second, they crashed to the ground like meteorites. The lava trenches slashed by the flaming swords and the frozen abysses created by the ice swords crisscrossed, further ravaging the already devastated land beyond recognition.

Sword energy swept across the land.

The two diametrically opposed forces of ice and fire violently annihilate each other in every clash, only to be reborn again.

A dazzling trail of light lingered in the sky, a blend of fiery red and icy blue, like the most brutal yet magnificent strokes on a doomsday scroll.

"Amazing speed and power..."

Heather gazed at the two figures that were impossible to detect with the naked eye, whose trajectories could only be sensed through divine power, and a fierce fighting spirit burned in her azure eyes.

As a sea goddess, she is not known for her speed, but with the blessing of divine power, she can still enter this realm of divine speed.

"Om-!"

Without further hesitation, Heather burst forth with azure divine light, transforming into a third streak of light, and fiercely plunged into the battle.

In an instant, the sky transformed into a death dance floor of three streaks of light.

Mirror Flow's sword is unpredictable, swift, and cold, containing the meaning of annihilation. Its sword light shines like moonlight, penetrating everywhere.

Kevin's sword is violent, direct, and brutal, representing pure destruction. Every swing of the Annihilation Greatsword carries the power to incinerate everything, using force to overcome skill and forcefully deflecting the exquisite sword techniques of the Mirror Style.

The addition of Heather brings the boundless depth and endless vitality of the ocean.

Her golden trident no longer pursued ultimate speed, but instead used its immense divine power to construct a solid barrier to withstand Kevin's most lethal strikes, while simultaneously using the binding power of the Unpredictable Storm to disrupt his movements and create opportunities for Mirror Flow.

Three figures intersected, collided, separated, and then collided again at a speed beyond comprehension.

The sounds of weapons clashing were so dense that they formed a continuous, endless roar.

Energy storms continued to generate and erupt along their battle path, pushing the sky and earth further towards complete collapse.

Below this breathtaking, lightning-fast battle, Lu Jingming leisurely walked up to Kryudela and stopped five meters away from her.

This distance was extremely close for a highly vigilant empress who held the reins of the law.

However, Kerudela merely turned her head slightly, glancing at Lu Jingming with her deep eyes before turning her gaze back to the fierce battle in the sky. Unconsciously, she gently turned and played with the scepter in her hand, which symbolized her authority.

“You knew all along that Sword Knight and I alone couldn’t completely defeat this opponent.”

Her voice was calm and even, revealing no emotion.

"Are you showing up to help now so that I'll owe you a favor?"
