Chapter 256 The Realm of Legend, the Power of Law
This voice is not loud, and the tone is even a little immature.
But it carries a majesty that cannot be ignored, as well as a bone-chilling killing intent.
But at this time, Heya and the other three were approaching Xia En. How could they stop so easily?
Heya and Hesa looked at each other, with a cold light flashing in their eyes.
Immediately, thousands of threads suddenly burst out from the shadows under the two people's feet, connecting them to each other.
This is a killing move developed by these twin sisters, and its power cannot be underestimated.
In the blink of an eye.
Countless shadow threads crisscrossed and struck, trying to cut Xia En's body into countless pieces.
At the same time, Abu also came up behind Xia En and struck him in the back with a thunderous punch!
If this punch hits, even a sixth-level expert will be killed on the spot!
There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind.
In addition, the breath and space are blocked, and Xia En cannot escape using [Shadow Walking].
It can be said to be a real desperate situation!
Xia En looked deeply at the direction where the sound came from.
Of course, his [projection body] is not afraid of sacrifice.
But the question is, has Laila successfully used the [Twilight Black Pearl] to temporarily gain legendary power, and can she survive this dangerous situation?
Xia En felt extremely heavy when he thought that he might not be able to see the final outcome.
But at this moment.
There was a sound of "dang".
Immediately, time... stopped!
There was silence between heaven and earth, as if all sounds had been lost.
Whether it is the thousands of threads released by the Heya sisters or Abu whose arms are stretched like a full moon, they all maintain the movements of the previous second and are frozen in this moment.
Only their thoughts flow silently.
Xia En's eyes widened in astonishment.
He was no stranger to this kind of scene. When he entered the Elven Temple, he had seen this kind of time-frozen spectacle more than once.
And, isn’t this the function of the pocket watch called [Instant Time]?
The next moment.
Laila's figure appeared in front of him, and with a gentle tug, she took him out of the deadly trap of this dragnet.
After landing, time starts to flow again.
Shane's body also regained its ability to move.
He looked at Laila in surprise: "Did you succeed?"
Laila glanced at Shane's deformed arm, and suddenly frowned, with self-blame in her eyes. and anger.
"Did they hurt you?"
Xia En said indifferently: "It's just a small injury."
For [Projection Body], he had experienced injuries more serious than this countless times, so he naturally didn't take it to heart.
What Xia En is more concerned about is Laila's state at this time.
In his eyes, Laila's aura was several times stronger than before, and was filled with unspeakable mystery and depth.
The emerald green pupils took on a strange silvery white color, with a little bit of shimmer rotating around them.
Without a doubt.
Laila successfully absorbed the secret power of [Twilight Black Pearl] and was temporarily promoted to the legendary realm!
However, Xia En was a little curious. When he broke through with the help of this secret treasure, it took a long time.
How could Laila digest the secret power so quickly?
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Xia En's mind.
Time!
Judging from the spectacle of time standing still, Laila must have mastered the secret of time.
Combined with her mother's research during her lifetime and the fields that Laila has never used before, it is not difficult for Xia En to guess that the power of her fields is probably related to time!
So, she most likely accelerated the time around her to be able to use [Twilight Black Pearl] in a short time.
But this is not the time to ask these questions.
Heya and the others have recovered from their quiescent state and are looking at Laila and Laila in fear.
"...Legend?"
"Impossible! How could you break through Legend on the battlefield?"
The previous arrogance and pride no longer existed, replaced by strong shock and alert.
Just because of the enemy in front of me, I have entered the realm of legend!
No matter what method Laila used, does such a "legendary" rank have any side effects or sequelae.
A legend is still a legend after all.
The gap between them widened to a desperate level in an instant.
——Just like how Xia En felt when he faced them before.
“Next, leave it to me.”
Laila threw these words to Xia En, then turned to look at Heya and the others, her pretty face as cold as frost.
"You hurt him, then go and die."
Before he finished speaking, the air around Laila rippled like water waves.
Heya suddenly felt great fear in her heart.
She doesn’t know what this secret power is and what its capabilities are.
But she felt the danger that threatened her life!
Among the colorless ripples, one white, nameless flower blooms quietly. They sway silently, seemingly ordinary.
However, when Heya saw making these little white flowers.
She found that her body was completely unable to move.
To be precise, her movements were slowed down hundreds of times.
A simple dodge action would take Heya several seconds to complete.
And in a battle at this level, sometimes one second can determine life or death!
Laila waved her hand gently.
“No!!!”
In Heya’s exclamation.
The small white flowers swayed like a dancer, and then, cracks appeared on the solidified scenery, like a broken mirror!
And Heya was also part of this scene, and it was also shattered!
A second ago, Heya was still staring at Laila warily.
But the next second, her body was torn apart!
“Sister!”
Hesa, who had a cold temperament, had a sad look on her face.
But she did not lose her fighting spirit because of this, but looked at Laila with great hatred, and a sharp scream broke out from her mouth.
Bang!
Immediately afterwards, Hesa's body collapsed and turned into a sticky shadow.
That is not Laila's handiwork, but the innate secret technique she has mastered——
Shadowization!
Just like many mages have mastered the skill of "elementalization", which is immune to physical damage.
The dark elves also have their own unique secret techniques.
"Shading" is one of them.
After abandoning the human form, Hersa transformed into a slender black snake made of pure shadow, as thick as a girl's arm, and rushed towards Laila at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye.
The shadow snake's eyes glowed scarlet, and it hissed out smoke-like black snake messages.
"Fuck, die, die, die!"
This weird form is enough to resist the attacks of most secret arts.
Everyone who encounters a sixth level person will find it extremely troublesome. It can be called a killer move.
However, in the face of time, what difference does a mere shadow make?
The nameless white flowers bloom again, stirring invisible ripples.
At this moment, Xia En vaguely realized that the water waves in the air might be a manifestation of time.
For example...
Time flows!
And the little white flowers are like the waves in the river of time!
In Xia En’s surprised eyes.
The shadow snake transformed by Hesa first froze in place, and then started to continuously retreat!
It’s like rewinding a video, moving from the ending to the starting point.
Even the words that came out of her mouth seemed to be swallowed into her belly again.
She transformed from shadow to human again.
What awaits her next is death! Hesa's eyes widened in confusion, and she murmured: "The law... you have mastered the law of time..."
Chi!
A blush appeared on her neck, and her headless body fell silently.
Once the power of time is used in combat, the effect is so exaggerated!
“Law?”
Xia En chewed secretly as he listened to this slightly unfamiliar word.
The difference between the fourth level and the fifth level lies in the field.
The gap between the sixth level and the legend seems to be this so-called "law!"
Think more deeply.
Isn’t the field just the manifestation of the law?
Because the level of fighting between Laila and Heya was too high for Xia En, who was still only a fourth-level Mystic.
It is difficult for him to see those secret powers and the deeper confrontation
But this opportunity to watch the legendary powerhouse take action is undoubtedly extremely rare.
Moreover, it will be of great benefit to his future secret journey.
So, Xia En stared at the battlefield as much as possible, trying to remember what he saw today.
But just after Laila killed the Heya sisters one after another, a paleness flashed across her face.
Suddenly.
The big man Abu roared angrily, strode forward, condensed all the energy in his body into one, and punched Laila!
There is nothing fancy about this punch.
Just fast enough and strong enough!
That's all.
Not even the ripples of time can freeze it!
It’s like breaking free from the cage set by Laila!
Xia En suddenly raised his eyebrows.
His and Abu's fighting methods are actually quite similar. They both rely on powerful and pure numerical values to crush the enemy.
Because of this, he saw even more how extraordinary Abu's punch was.
The opponent put almost all of his body and mind, and even everything in his past, into this punch.
Thus reaching the level of "breaking all laws with one force".
“Can you achieve this by just relying on strength?”
Xia En was touched in his heart.
But what he was more worried about was Laila's safety.
There was a muffled "bang" sound.
A fierce collision occurred between the realm of time and pure power.
Finally, the fierce fist hit Laila's delicate body.
Flesh and blood flying everywhere.
A huge bloody hole appeared in Laila's chest.
Xia En was shaken physically and mentally, her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound.
But in the next moment.
Time begins to flow backwards for Laila.
The blood hole disappeared, the blood flowed back into her body, and everything returned to its original intact state.
But Abu still stood in his original posture, like a statue.
Xia En let out a long breath and looked at the tall man warily.
Laila glanced at Abu who was staying in place with complicated eyes, and said softly.
“He is dead.”
Xia En took a closer look and found that Abu had no breath at all.
The punch just now had burned away his life, leaving only a useless empty shell.
Rather than saying that Laila killed him, it would be better to say that he killed himself.
After realizing this, Xia En finally breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he felt a little weird.
Not to mention, the taste of soft rice once in a while seems pretty good?
But then again.
This ability to control time is a bit too buggy.
Not only can it restrict the enemy's movement, but it can also trace its own injuries back to before it was injured.
Isn’t this naturally invincible?
Or is this the true strength of the legendary strongman?
Before this day, Xia En had only seen Twilight of the sixth level take action at most.
In fact, that was still under the ban of [Sand Island].
And today, Xia Encai witnessed the battle between the sixth level and the legendary strong man.
Let him realize that he has only walked a short distance on the secret road, and there is still a quite high mountain waiting for him to climb.
The meaning is tantamount to opening the door to a new world!
“One day, I will become stronger than them!”
While making up his mind, Shane looked at Laila with concern.
"Laila, are you okay?"
Laila smiled: "I'm fine."
But as soon as she finished speaking, her face suddenly changed. He turned pale, and a little blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Xia En's expression changed slightly, and he immediately walked to her side and supported her body.
"This is the backlash of manipulating time."
Laila explained softly: "But it doesn't matter, just take it slow."
Xia En murmured: "Sure enough..."
The more powerful the power, the more severe the side effects.
Things like manipulating time that go against the laws of the world will undoubtedly bring a huge burden.
But fortunately, the biggest crisis has already been reached.
In this barrier, no other dark elves can threaten them.
After a short rest.
Lyla began to deal with the barrier set by several legends with their lives.
Although Heya said that it will take at least three days to untie the barrier.
But that's when the barrier is broken from the outside.
The strongest fortresses are always breached from within.
This enchantment is no exception.
In fact, the reason why the dark elves sent three level six to assassinate Laila in the barrier was not because their legendary strongman was dead.
But the barrier can only accommodate a maximum of six levels of powerhouses.
At this time, as Laila exerted her strength, the entire barrier itself began to collapse.
The moment the barrier collapsed, several elf guards rushed in immediately.
They thought they would see the Queen's body in grief, but what appeared in front of them was...
A man in black robes of unknown origin was meeting with their noble , Her Majesty the Queen, who was about to ascend the throne, walked towards each other with support.
And on the Queen's face, there was a bright smile that they had never seen before.
Like a pure white flower.
Innocent but beautiful.
This shocked the guards.
Who is this man in black robe?
How can Her Majesty the Queen show such an expression?
Also, Her Majesty the Queen actually broke through the legend at a critical moment?
Seeing the guards in front of her, Laila quickly calmed down her little daughter's demeanor and regained her majesty as a queen.
She decisively suppressed the rest of the dark elves, issued orders one after another, and stretched out her hand again to start repairing the elf mother tree around her.
But just when Xia En couldn't help but relax.
Mutation happened again.
Boom!
Boom!
The dull heartbeat echoed throughout the [City of Giant Woods].
The source of the heartbeat is not elsewhere, but from this huge elf mother tree!
