“Projection... start!”
“Green Black Key!”
The Red Dragon’s Heart beat rapidly, releasing its magic restriction. A massive amount of pure magic was instantly generated from the endless stream of life force.
Ye Ran slightly bent his body, and in a blink, he was no longer in his original position.
The black wings of his cloak swirled, and behind him, several black keys, engraved with green runes, materialized.
At this moment, the young man was wearing the same black cloak as Black Archer.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
These Green Black Keys, propelled by immense force, launched with the terrifying power of siege cannons.
The earth was churned up, sending dust swirling into the air.
Thanks to the -[Giant Beast Hunter A] skill from his old sword spirit foundation, Ye Ran’s power was greatly enhanced when facing the massive, monstrous Ghost Mother God.
A flowing green light enveloped the black keys. They pinned down the black tentacles that surged towards him, nailing them to the ground one by one.
Black smoke rose, as if something were burning. The demon-repelling runes were taking effect.
Sizzle... sizzle... sizzle...
The cursed blade continued to burn Ghost Mother God’s flesh, causing her to shriek with contorted features.
“Human, you dare harm me!!”
Wild magic fluctuations echoed around. The evil god waved its countless tentacles, like a raging sea tide reversing and suddenly tearing through the sky. Then, with a force that seemed to destroy heaven and earth, it violently surged downwards.
“!”
Ye Ran’s heart leaped.
He sensed danger through his intuition.
In the next instant, his body instinctively performed a gymnastic-like dodging maneuver, nimbly weaving between the gigantic tentacles, each like a towering tree.
This was the effect of the [Dodge Arrow’s Protection] skill.
Simultaneously, Ghost Mother God tilted her head back once more, and her body suddenly split open. A gaping maw large enough to swallow mountains opened, emitting a thunderous roar.
In the next instant, the countless infant demons spread across the mountains, like an ant colony, surged out of Ghost Mother God’s mountain-like shadow, rushing towards Bao Yue Ye Xiao and the two women on the other side.
“Don’t even think about it!”
Ye Ran roared, magic surging within him. In an instant, he materialized a black, ancient longbow.
“Identifying creative concept, setting basic framework, copying constituent materials, imitating fabrication technology.”
“Reproducing accumulated years, surpassing and completing numerous projects, at this very moment… Complete, the sword that gathers fantasy!”
A jet-black, openwork longsword was placed upon the string of the black longbow.
Magic Sword - Red Plain Hound (Hrunting)!
From the Norse mythology, this was the treasured sword of the hero Beowulf, his most beloved weapon.
This magic sword would automatically track the scent of blood, and simply swinging it would unleash the most suitable strike.
With each cut, blood would flow into the blade, emitting a crimson glow.
The Red Plain Hound blade bloomed with a dazzling red light.
Ye Ran drew back the bow and released the arrow, shooting the magic sword.
Rumble —!
The magic unleashed in that instant pushed back everything around him like a gale.
A heart-stopping blood-red light streamed through the swarm of infant demons and tentacles, like a demon’s scythe.
Woo woo woo…
The blood-colored airflow erupted at accelerated speed, as if dragon roars echoed in everyone’s ears.
The monsters didn’t even have time to react before the high-speed magic sword, invisible to the naked eye, blasted them to pieces.
This was the power of Magic Sword - Red Plain Hound.
As long as he didn’t call a halt, no one could stop the magic sword.
“Ssssh!”
The sharp magic sword spun with a blood-red chill, piercing the darkness. Deep wounds, several meters long, suddenly appeared on Ghost Mother God’s body. Large amounts of black mist poured out, making even the tentacles’ attacks feeble.
“Roar —!”
Inflicted with immense damage and in pain, Ghost Mother God once again erupted with powerful demonic power. It was clear she was going all out.
Pure black mist flickered, engulfing the battlefield.
This evil spirit, having evolved into a cursed spirit, didn’t yet know how to use cursed energy, but relying on instinct, it unleashed its innate domain.
A barrier, emitting a bluish-white glow, rose in the sky and swiftly descended, like an upside-down bowl covering the ground.
Buzz!
At the moment the barrier was completed.
The domain, previously submerged in darkness, suddenly lit up with countless “moons.”
These moons shattered in the blink of an eye, transforming into countless fragments that shot towards Ye Ran in the air.
“RhoAias (Burning Heaven Sevenfold Circular Ring)!”
Ye Ran’s brows furrowed.
Although he didn’t know why Ghost Mother God had suddenly evolved into a cursed spirit, he instinctively sensed danger from this domain.
A solemn incantation echoed, and a magnificent rose bloomed before him!
Buzz!!!
It was a conceptual defense that unfolded like petals.
The beautiful and unbreakable brilliance was dazzling. The shield treasure from the Trojan War appeared at that moment!
Boom —!
Boom —!!
Boom —!!!
The countless crescent moons struck the Rose Shield.
A violent clash occurred in the void with the shield that rivaled seven city walls, sparking showers of fire that spread outwards with the shockwave!
This was the shield of Ajax the Great, a hero on the Greek side of the Trojan War.
He had used this shield to block the javelin of Hector, the indomitable warrior on the battlefield, and thus, it ascended to become a conceptual armament that possessed “absolute defense against thrown weapons.”
It was said that this shield, shaped like flower petals, had the defense power of an entire city wall per petal, with seven city walls in total. Even thousands of soldiers could not break through it.
“Impossible, it actually blocked that special attack?”
“What a remarkable talent. That level of defense is already approaching the limitless technique of enlightenment.”
Above the clouds.
Sukuna Ryoumen’s eyes shone with admiration, while the pair of sisters, Yaga Miko and Yaga Kana, widened their eyes in shock.
This boy was only so young, and yet he could fight a special-grade, mutated cursed spirit toe-to-toe, even gaining the upper hand.
“What kind of monster is this?!”
Yaga Miko, who had just been disrespectful and wanted to deal with Ye Ran, now had a pale face, and her body trembled slightly.
At this moment, she understood what it meant to be ignorant.
If it had been her facing such a fierce cursed spirit, she probably would have been easily killed by Ghost Mother God in less than a second.
Ghost Mother God’s innate domain allowed for all techniques used within the domain to have an absolute hit effect.
Furthermore, it possessed powerful corrosive poison.
Whoosh…whoosh…whoosh…
Countless crescent moons slammed into the solid shield of Burning Heaven Sevenfold Circular Ring, simultaneously splashing black streams of water.
These streams, like the springs of the underworld, flowed in vast quantities. Even with Burning Heaven Sevenfold Circular Ring’s incredible defense, it was gradually corroded and became riddled with holes.
