Chapter 348: Hit, Life Is Like a Dream
When the devil released the terrifying annihilation light and was about to kill everyone nearby, a huge purple complex magic circle pattern appeared out of thin air, resisting this range attack from bottom to top.
There is no doubt that this was the work of the Grand Duke, who was a descendant of the Great Sage. He used his power at the critical moment to intercept the devil's magic power for everyone.
But this round of competition did not end so quickly. Everyone under the protection of the huge purple magic circle soon saw that the magic circle above the head and the devil's terrifying annihilation light held out for about two seconds, and then there were signs of collapse. Once it could not hold up at all, all those who were touched by the annihilation light would be in danger of being destroyed.
"Everyone, get away from here! The Grand Duke can't hold up anymore!"
All professionals felt this sense of crisis at this time. They knew that it was difficult to resist the devil's terrifying magic light, and they could only disperse and escape in the short-term safety created by the Grand Duke, so as not to let the Grand Duke's current efforts go to waste.
But in fact, there is another way to deal with this situation, that is, to use powerful attacks to interfere with the release of the demon king's power. However, these people are worried that they will destroy the defensive magic circle that the Grand Duke protects them if they attack casually, so they can only disperse and escape first.
Just when the situation is gradually getting worse, outside the battle group, a dazzling sword light suddenly appears, crossing a distance of thousands of meters to attack the demon king in the sky.
The demon king immediately turned his eyes to the direction of the attack, guiding part of the annihilation light to destroy the attacker, but in the blink of an eye, the magic light it released collided with the attacking sword light, and the magic light was forced back by the sword light for a long distance before it was exhausted. It turned out that its power was lost in the confrontation.
"Could it be that person?"
The demon king immediately understood that someone he was afraid of finally appeared. After he planned for so long in the tower and decided to attack, this marked that the battle had entered a critical stage.
The next moment, two figures appeared in the sky in the direction it was looking at. The one in front was a young human holding a dazzling knife, and the one behind was a girl from the Dark Night Clan. The strength of their auras was not comparable to the general level, but it was obvious that the young man holding the knife in front gave it a much stronger sense of danger.
"Destroy that man first."
The devil immediately lowered his voice and spoke. If outsiders discovered its movements, they would definitely think it was talking to itself and talking to the surrounding void, but the actual situation was not the case.
Then it saw that the sky had been submerged in the night, and ripples appeared in the darkness. These spatial ripples not only appeared around the devil, but also descended around Wang Zhifan in front, making him feel the fluctuation of the power of the law.
"This guy is really good? He did this as soon as I appeared... It seems that he has been planning this for a long time!"
Wang Zhifan suddenly felt something strange. He reflexively activated the space defense ability and teleportation ability of the blank belt to evade, but found that the surrounding law fluctuations were getting stronger and stronger, hindering the space skills of the blank belt. However, the two space abilities of the blank belt were not without effect. They also relatively resisted most of the power of the law.
But the dark night girl Itris, who happened to be not far behind Wang Zhifan, was not so lucky. She was almost completely restricted by the power of the law in an instant. Her body became unable to move, and then she was twisted and rotated by the power of the law, turning into tiny fragments, that is, she was killed in an instant!
Such a horrible scene was not only noticed by Wang Zhifan in front of her, but also by the professionals and players on the ground. After all, even if some of these people had less sensitive perception, they could see the instantaneous fall of a powerful girl in the afterglow of the sword light and magic light that had not yet completely dissipated.
"It's the power of the law of space! When did the Demon King grow to this point?!"
Ms. Red Dragon on the ground may be the one who knows the situation best. Her red vertical pupils are full of shock. She is shocked that the power of the Demon King is beyond her cognition. At least two thousand years ago, she had never seen the Demon King use such high-end law ability in the material world.
But things did not end at this point. Wang Zhifan, who was standing high in the sky, relied on the power of the blank belt to resist the law attack, but he also lost the opportunity to escape.
Around his body, huge and terrifying phantoms appeared quickly. These phantoms forcefully pulled away the law maintenance power of space, and surrounded and divided the space he was in at an astonishing speed, making him feel like his body fell into the abyss even though he was standing in the air.
"I got hit... This time the opponent is very skilled..."
Wang Zhifan immediately realized that all this was a special treat prepared by the Demon King for him. They were supposed to use the spatial law to attack and kill him instantly, but because he had a blank belt and barely survived this round of tests, the Demon King launched the subsequent power, which cut the space around him when it couldn't hit him, making him inevitably fall into trouble.
As for who these phantoms summoned by the Demon King who could drive the power of the law were, he didn't have many clues, only one of the more familiar existence reminded him of something.
That was an existence he had tortured in the tower. The other party first wanted to use the contract to obtain his soul. After being rejected by him, he used the Blade of Time to torture him severely for several rounds and obtained some information about the Demon King.
"Could it be that this guy has a grudge against me, so he teamed up with the devil and other beings to deal with me? Is it necessary to be so petty?"
The more he looked at the other party, the more he felt that the other party was that guy. Wang Zhifan was speechless for a moment. He really didn't expect that he would meet the other party again, and once they met, he fell into the trap they carefully set up.
In this situation, he is basically a meal for these powerful opponents who suddenly appeared. Once they complete the space cutting and transfer, he will fall into an extremely dangerous situation. After all, it is not easy for him to protect himself under the restriction of the power of the space law. It is very difficult to launch a counterattack to break this situation unless he uses the power of the trump card.
"It's time... If I don't fight again, I may fall over..."
At this extremely dangerous moment, Wang Zhifan, who is a pitiful creature in the eyes of everyone, chose to burst out all his strength to forcibly reverse the situation.
He first activated the special ability of the blade of time in his hand, "time stop", to resist the attempt of the surrounding terrifying phantom to pull him into the abyss.
As we all know, the power of time is stronger than the power of space. When this great ability is activated, he and the surrounding space feel a sense of falling, and the shadow-like existences around him and the demon king who is a little further away are all in an absolute pause.
This pause will only last for one second if he does not continuously activate the ability of the Blade of Time, but for him, one second is enough to do a lot of things.
"Life is like a dream."
At the moment when all the existences around him were stagnant, he burst out all the power he had cultivated so far and slashed the Blade of Time in his hand.
The orange-yellow and bright red Blade of Time crossed the space in front of him at a not very fast speed, but strangely did not point to any enemy, as if deliberately slashing into the void.
However, Wang Zhifan's will to slash this knife was extremely firm, and there was no hesitation in the light knife in his hand. More importantly, his mind was extremely focused, and he used all the power of the Great Dream Blade to spy on the existence of the surrounding enemies, and slashed the Blade of Time at this conceptual existence.
Generally speaking, there are two major categories of things, real existence and false existence, and the core sword skill of the Great Dream Sword Sutra, Fu Sheng Ru Meng, is a special attack born to deal with these two concepts. The real target attacked by Fu Sheng Ru Meng will be forcibly broken from its existence essence and directly downgraded to a false existence, that is, it will become completely non-existent and disappear, leaving no room for death than the most real death.
This is a sword skill that sounds very absurd and cannot be understood by ordinary swordsmen. Ordinary swordsmen can only cut entities with swords, and more advanced ones can cut spirits without entities, but this kind of attack that cuts the essence of concepts also exists, but it is extremely mysterious, and only very top swordsmen can get a glimpse of it.
And it just so happens that Wang Zhifan has reached this realm by practicing the Great Dream Sword Sutra. Even though he is not proficient in Fu Sheng Ru Meng, and this is the first time in practice, at this critical moment, with the help of time stop, he did it very smoothly and completed this attack method that can cross space obstacles and is very suitable for the current environment.
The knife slashed down steadily, without any change in the color of the sky and earth, nor any dazzling knife light. Wang Zhifan only felt that more than half of his power was consumed, and those beings that he had concentrated on as targets began to disintegrate at once. In the blink of an eye, they dissipated into the void like a faint mist, leaving no trace.
The several terrifying phantoms that besieged him disappeared, and the power of the space law they launched also disintegrated cleanly at the same time, like a stream without a source, drying up and disappearing at a rapid speed.
The demon king who was still releasing the light of annihilation to fight against the Grand Duke's magic circle also disappeared. Under the influence of time stillness, it did not feel the danger until the moment of its own existence annihilation. Perhaps its thoughts stayed in joy until the end, and it was happy for the wisdom of freeing its mind and joining forces with other powerful demons, and for the success of its careful layout to solve the strongest opponent.
As it dissipated without a trace, the light of annihilation that originally overwhelmed the whole scene also annihilated itself, allowing the Grand Duke's defense power to gain the upper hand in an instant, making this NPC feel indescribable astonishment.
Because Grand Duke Agulas Rod himself was not here at the moment and had been using his power remotely, he was not affected by Wang Zhifan's time-stopping skill, and many of the detection media he had placed here were far enough away from Wang Zhifan that he could see the specific process of the shocking change just now.
However, even with the old man's extensive knowledge, he did not understand all the mysteries. He only vaguely felt that Wang Zhifan used the power of the law of time, and then killed all the enemies in a second in a very special way, leaving no corpses behind. The situation was more tragic than the corpses of those who were hit by the disintegration technique.
Most of the people who were closer to Wang Zhifan were also very surprised, but they did not know what happened after they recovered from the time stop. They just thought that the enemy ran away in the blink of an eye. Some people were more inclined to think that the enemy used some kind of group invisibility, and they shouted to track the enemy quickly and use the detection technique to detect.
On the contrary, the group of players knew what had just happened best, because a copy settlement notification appeared in front of them, indicating that they had completed the copy goal and participated in a kill of the demon king.
