Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 222 Laws and Magic

As night fell, Electrox's previously somewhat ethereal old man figure suddenly solidified!

A surge of immense divine power, mingled with the pure aura of death and the essence of reincarnation, soared into the sky. The great divine artifact staff in his hand, the Staff of Eternity, erupted with a dazzling greyish-white light. With his other hand, he lifted it into the air, and a miniature version of…

Yet, the illusory image of the Great Artifact [Meditation Tower], which exudes the power to stabilize the soul and amplify the laws, floats above his head, casting rays of clear light.

At this moment, although Electrox did not have a divine body, his extremely refined divine sense and profound understanding of the laws made the aura he exuded no less than that of any first-level god who possessed a divine body!

Gu Yuena sensed this aura, a faint hint of admiration flashing in her purple eyes: "Her divine sense is as condensed as a tangible substance, and her comprehension of the laws far surpasses that of ordinary first-level gods; truly rare. It's a pity—a true..."

How can a complete deity be without a matching divine body? Possessing powerful divine consciousness and a profound understanding of the laws, yet lacking a vessel to support it, ultimately—is not complete enough, nor qualified to fight me with all my might.

She intended to finish the battle quickly and seize the Abyss Origin, and had no intention of using the super artifact Dragon God Core to bully a "crippled" god.

With a flick of her jade-like hand, a long spear, entirely silver-white in color, elegantly and ornately designed, with countless silver dragon scale patterns on its shaft, appeared out of thin air—it was her weapon, the Silver Dragon Spear!

The spear tip trembled slightly, and all the elements in the surrounding world—water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and even spatial elements—came together frantically as if summoned by an absolute monarch. However, they were forcibly compressed and tamed by an invisible force, condensing onto that single point of cold light!

In an instant, a miniature elemental storm seemed to be born at the tip of the spear, radiating a terrifying wave of destruction!

"Take this!" Gu Yuena shouted, her figure disappearing from the spot like a ghost. The next moment, she appeared in front of Ilex, her silver dragon spear transforming into a silver lightning bolt that tore through the heavens and earth, thrusting straight out!

Simple and direct, yet so fast it transcends thought, and it contains absolute control and crushing power over the laws of the elements!

Faced with this lightning-fast shot, imbued with the ultimate destructive power of the elements, Electrox's soul fire burned fiercely in his eyes, yet he showed no sign of panic.

"Undead Canopy - Reincarnation Barrier!" He slammed his staff on the ground, and the vast power of death merged with a trace of the law of reincarnation, instantly creating layers upon layers of gray-black barriers in front of him, seemingly composed of countless wailing souls and a vortex of reincarnation!

This barrier is not something to be resisted head-on, but rather it possesses a strange "wear-down" and "guiding" characteristic, attempting to draw the terrifying elemental energy on the Silver Dragon Spear into reincarnation and dissolve it into nothingness.

At the same time, the illusory image of the meditation tower above his head cast even more clear light, stabilizing his soul and amplifying his ability to calculate and control the laws.

boom!!!

The silver dragon spear slammed fiercely into the barrier of reincarnation!

A terrifying elemental storm erupted instantly, clashing and annihilating the power of the cycle of death! The gray-black barrier twisted violently, and countless phantom souls shattered with wails, but new power kept surging out from the cycle to replenish it!

They actually managed to barely withstand that earth-shattering shot!

"Interesting!" A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yuena's beautiful eyes. The opponent's combination and application of the laws of death and reincarnation was more exquisite than she had expected. But her attack did not stop; with a flick of her wrist, the spear's momentum suddenly changed!

The Law of Annihilation: Shattered Stars!

A sliver of absolute darkness suddenly appeared from the tip of the Silver Dragon Spear! It was a trace of the destructive power contained within the Golden Dragon King's essence that she had mobilized! Although weak, its status was extremely high, specializing in destruction!

(Contains the Dragon God Core)

scoff!

That resilient barrier of reincarnation, before this thread of annihilation law, was as if it had encountered its nemesis, and was forcibly torn open! The Silver Dragon Spear plunged straight in!

Electrox's pupils contracted (his soul fire suddenly condensed), but instead of retreating, he advanced!

"Holy Light Judgment!" The largest soul gem at the top of his staff suddenly erupted with pure, unparalleled divine power of light that restrained the undead! But this divine power of light was not used for attack; instead, it intertwined with his own divine power of death in an extremely contradictory yet harmonious way, transforming into a complex chain of laws interwoven with gray and gold, coiling around the incoming silver dragon spear like a venomous snake!

Light and darkness, life and death, two completely opposite forces in his hands, formed a strange balance and eruption, attempting to forcibly imprison or even corrupt Gu Yuena's weapon!

"Hmph! A mere trick!" Gu Yuena snorted coldly, the power of the Law of Creation flowing spontaneously, and the Silver Dragon Spear radiated a soft yet resilient green light of life, easily shaking off and purifying the chains intertwined with light and darkness! At the same time, the spear trembled, and a dragon's roar suddenly resounded!

"Elemental Tide - Burst!"

Rumble!!!

Centered on the Silver Dragon Spear, the seven elemental powers, compressed to their limit, erupted with a deafening roar! Like the Big Bang at the dawn of the universe, it instantly engulfed Ilex and his defensive spells!

Terrifying energy turbulence raged, shattering space inch by inch!

As the light faded, Electrolux was seen hovering somewhat disheveled in place, his protective divine power dimmed considerably, and the phantom of the meditation tower swayed slightly. Although he had blocked the attack, he was clearly at a disadvantage.

Gu Yuena held the Silver Dragon Spear, pointing it at Ilex, her tone calm yet carrying undeniable authority: "Your law magic is indeed unique, especially your approach of integrating opposing laws, which is truly astonishing. If you possessed a complete divine body, perhaps you could indeed contend with me."

She paused, then gave her final assessment: "Unfortunately, with just this Silver Dragon Spear, I am more than capable of defeating you now."

Before she finished speaking, her figure blurred again, and the Silver Dragon Spear transformed into countless spear shadows. Each spear contained a different elemental essence, sometimes as violent as thunder, sometimes as continuous as drizzle, sometimes as heavy as a mountain, and sometimes as ethereal as a breeze!

What's even more terrifying is that these attacks are occasionally interspersed with strange changes in destructive or creative power that are impossible to defend against!

Electrox pushed his own laws and magic to the limit, effortlessly unleashing all sorts of bizarre and powerful spells such as Undead Cataclysm, Holy Purification, Reincarnation Interference, and Soul Impact. The great artifact staff and the meditation tower complemented each other, and he actually managed to barely hold on amidst the barrage of gunfire. He could even occasionally launch a counterattack with exquisite combinations of laws, forcing Gu Yuena to take him a little more seriously.

This battle has become the ultimate clash of the application and understanding of the laws!

However, as Gu Yuena said, Electrolux lacks a divine body that can perfectly unleash its power, and it will inevitably lose if it stays in the position for too long.

Finally, Gu Yuena seized a tiny gap in his spell conversion, and the Silver Dragon Spear seemed to break through the limitations of time and space, striking his staff at an incredible angle!

hum!

A strange force, combining the resilience of creation and the sharpness of destruction, erupted instantly, piercing straight through the staff into the core of Ilex's consciousness!

Electrolux shuddered violently, letting out a muffled groan as he was sent flying backward, his divine power in disarray, clearly indicating he had suffered some injuries. Although he quickly regained his footing, the difference in skill was already clear.

Gu Yuena did not pursue, slowly sheathing her Silver Dragon Spear. A hint of recognition for the powerful flashed in her purple eyes: "To withstand my Silver Dragon Spear for so long, your magic is commendable. Now, may you step aside?"

The laws of magic, a new path, gave her some enlightenment, making this battle worthwhile.

Electrolux took a deep breath, calming his turbulent mind, and said hoarsely, "The Silver Dragon King lives up to his name. I have learned my lesson."

He slowly stepped aside, but his interest in the mysteries of the laws of creation and destruction grew even stronger. Although he was defeated in this battle, he gained a great deal from it.
