The weapons I forge are absolutely flawless.

The Prism Corridor, painstakingly constructed by Ymir, collapsed and disintegrated amidst the dazzling sword light, its mirrors crumbling one by one and vanishing into nothingness.

“How could this be…” Ymir murmured to himself, his voice filled with disbelief and shock.

His face was as pale as paper, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead. He clearly hadn't expected his special skill to be so easily countered.

However, Ymir didn't have time to think about it.

After all, the sword domain, carrying unparalleled power, swept towards him in the next moment.

As the sword domain drew closer, a resolute glint flashed in Ymir's eyes.

He bit his tongue hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood essence, trying to gather his last bit of strength to reflect the sword light.

Even if it only reflects one or two tenths of its power, it would be enough to take this kid down with it.

But things won't go as he wishes.

Just as the overwhelming sword energy was about to strike the prism in front of Ymir, the vast sword light suddenly disintegrated, turning into countless tiny points of light.

Ymir was stunned. Before he could react, a chill ran down his spine.

A blazing longsword had pierced his chest from behind.

"Do you know what it means to be in complete control?" Viner's voice rang in Ymir's ears.

He exerted a little force and pushed the Zhidian Zhena forward another inch.

"...It was an illusion?"

Ymir's eyes widened, filled with resentment and anger, yet he still turned into ashes and vanished from the world.

Chapter 622 Rimuru the Glutton

"It's fortunate that they chose me; it would have been troublesome if it had been someone else." Viner breathed a slight sigh of relief.

This Mirror Demon was indeed one of the most formidable opponents he had ever encountered.

The moment the Prism Corridor was shattered, the flying swords summoned by those clones should have disappeared.

However, Venere immediately used the illusion of a mirage to maintain the momentum of "Return of the Ten Thousand Swords".

Ymir was shocked by the breaking of his trump card and the terrifying onslaught of thousands of swords, and lost his composure, which is why he failed to see through the deception.

When he exhausted all his remaining strength to reflect the illusions created by Vener, death was inevitable.

Unfortunately, in order to eliminate any potential problems, Vena even imbued the Nite-dono Zena with the power of the Holy Sword. After his demise, the Mirror Demon did not even leave behind any demonic blood or soul.

"It seems Anna's situation has been resolved as well."

Wiener snapped out of his thoughts and turned his gaze into the distance.

The Shudrom Bow was, after all, a weapon he had forged himself, and when Anna summoned the Stormbringer, Venus also sensed it.

"Next up is Lisette's side."

With that, his wings suddenly unfurled, and with a tremor of his crimson-gold feathers, he flew swiftly back to the original location.

The magical aura of the battle there was still intense, clearly indicating that the outcome was still undecided.

-----------------

"Ugh, that's disgusting."

As they ventured deeper, the surrounding environment became increasingly harsh.

The concentrated acid seeping from the walls and floor had ripped Felix's neat clothes to shreds, and the soles of his shoes had long been corroded by the acid to the point of being as thin as cicada wings, so he had to be careful with every step.

However, Rimuru thrived in this environment.

What Felix found most unacceptable was that even with the sword energy wrapped around it, the longsword in his hand began to rust.

"No, we can't chase after them."

Felix stopped, looking at the sword in his hand with heartache. He realized that it was uncertain whether continuing deeper would solve Rimuru's problem, but it would only put him in greater danger.

"I'm not playing with you anymore!"

He shouted, then quickly turned and retreated in the direction behind him.

After running some distance, Rimuru saw that Felix seemed to have really given up chasing him, so he stopped.

"Was it something that didn't feel right?" Rimuru muttered to himself, as if deep in thought.

The two were currently in the stomach of the Gluttonous Demon.

The acid and corrosive gases that fill this place are enough to digest everything.

Even if Bimuru doesn't win against Felix, as long as enough time is spent, the opponent will inevitably be consumed by stomach acid.

With the constant feeding from the Gluttonous Demon, Rimuru's strength is now vastly different from what it used to be.

It vaguely felt that it would greatly benefit itself if it could devour this human.

With this in mind, Rimuru stopped running away and instead turned back.

Its body rapidly transformed into a black liquid, silently gliding along the ground, intending to launch a fatal attack before Felix could notice.

"Good, they've caught up." Felix nodded to himself, sensing this.

Even though his back was to Rimuru, he was still able to clearly pinpoint the other's location.

From the very beginning, Felix never truly gave up the pursuit.

After realizing that Rimuru was pursuing him, he deliberately slowed down to lure him into a trap.

He had already gripped his sword tightly, laying down countless sword energies along the way, waiting only for his opponent to appear so he could deliver a thunderous blow.

Rimuru's body emerged from the shadows and lunged at Felix, only to be met with a violent sword strike from the latter as he turned around.

The sharp sword wind tore through the air, leaving no escape in this narrow passage.

"drink!"

Rimuru did not sit idly by and wait to die. He quickly raised his cleaver and slashed it viciously at his feet.

As the stomach wall was bluntly cut open, a thick, foul-smelling liquid gushed out instantly.

The acid they had encountered earlier was nothing compared to this gushing stomach acid, and even the sword energy released by Felix was completely dissolved.

"what?"

The current situation was clearly beyond Felix's expectations, so much so that when Rimuru slapped the splashed liquid at him, Felix's first reaction was to use his sword to block it.

"Swipe!"

Felix's swordsmanship was so good that he could withstand even a sudden downpour without getting a drop of water out, but his longsword emitted pungent white smoke under the corrosive effect of the strong acid.

The metal surface was rapidly corroded, leaving mottled rust that spread at a visible rate.

Felix acted decisively, releasing his weapon and letting it fall to the ground. As he retreated, he placed his hand on Tensa Zangetsu.

"hateful."

Felix glared fiercely at Rimuru.

Being forced to discard his weapon by an opponent who seemed to pose little threat was the first time he had been put in such a sorry state since he entered the battle.

"Once it lands on the ground, it's mine."

Rimuru's voice carried a hint of self-righteousness as he slowly reached out towards the rusty longsword.

“I advise you not to touch it,” Felix warned.

"You didn't want to do it first, and now you won't let others touch it? That's completely unreasonable."

Rimuru shook his head, completely ignoring the other party's threat. The moment he touched the hilt of the sword, a sticky liquid flowed from his palm down the blade.

Although they can't devour Felix immediately, having some "appetizer" first is not bad.

Rimuru's gaze had already quietly shifted to Felix's last remaining weapon, Tensa Zangetsu.

Just as it was about to devour the rusty sword completely, a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged into its heart.

Rimuru keenly realized that this human had not simply given up his weapon, but was brewing some kind of more deadly counterattack.

Rimuru, on high alert, trembled slightly, his eyes fixed on Felix's hand like a hawk's, wary of any further attack Felix might launch at any moment.

Unexpectedly, Felix did not make any violent move, but instead loosened his grip on the hilt of the sword.

“My sword was drawn long ago,” Felix declared.

Before he finished speaking, countless chilling sword energies suddenly surged into the void.

These sword energies did not disperse, but instead all pointed towards Rimuru's direction, or rather, towards the location of the Time-Piercing Sword.

When it comes to acting skills in feigning defeat, Felix is ​​far superior to Rimuru.

He had already quietly arranged everything long before he abandoned his sword.

The Time-Piercing Sword that Rimuru swallowed became the best positioning beacon. No matter how it changed shape, split, or reassembled, the sword energy would accurately track its core.

Rimuru tried to use the same trick again, hoping to protect himself by using the Gluttony Demon's acid.

However, the sword energy that Felix had poured all his effort into was not something that could be neutralized by a little stomach acid.

The gluttonous Rimuru was ultimately devoured by the endless sword light.

Only one glittering demon blood soul remained.

"In your next life, please don't eat things of unknown origin again."

Chapter 623 Stormbringer Gets MVP

The battle between Lisette and Carlos continued, and the surrounding space seemed to be distorted by dazzling magic.

She realized that no matter what kind of magic she used, it would be copied and analyzed by the opponent, so she changed her battle strategy.

The strategy shifted from proactive offense to defensive posture.

This action was based on Listy's belief that Venus was able to deal with his opponent who came to his aid.

Listy chanted softly, constructing layer upon layer of complex protective magic arrays in front of her, each layer containing different attributes.

Flames, ice, and lightning flashed alternately, forming an impenetrable barrier.

Even if Carlos could analyze all the principles of magic, breaking through this defensive spell would not be an easy task.

Time is on her side.

Carlos, on the other hand, was not so comfortable.

Initially, he was confident that separating these humans would render them helpless and easy prey.

Unexpectedly, Severine, who volunteered for the task, not only failed to defeat her opponent, but was also the first to be defeated.

The mission was merely to hold off Ymir, the Holy Swordsman, but he failed to achieve his objective, leaving not even a single Demon Blood Soul.

If we don't deal with Lisette quickly, we'll be the ones getting surrounded and attacked later.

With this in mind, Carlos finally couldn't hold back and began to try more radical methods.

He quickly formed hand seals, releasing a powerful shockwave from his fingertips, aimed directly at the layers of protective magic arrays surrounding Lisette.

This was not a spell deciphered from Lisette, but Carlos's trump card—the Light Kill Cannon.

The non-elemental light cannon can ignore the obstruction of elemental shields, and coupled with its high-frequency vibration characteristics, it can even penetrate thick armor.

Using this move also means that Carlos is no longer holding back.

"Well!"

Lisette was also aware of the danger of this attack and dared not rely entirely on her protective magic.

She swiftly raised her staff, and after the light-killing cannon pierced through the outer layer of defensive magic, she met the attack head-on with the staff's spike.

Even the Staff of Tyr's Hunt, forged from black iron, paid a heavy price after taking this blow.

The wand, originally 1.5 meters long, was melted down to only one-third of its original length by the burning and shock of the light-killing cannon.

This means that the power of this light-killing cannon is even enough to penetrate a meter-thick layer of cold iron!
