the last king of darkness

Chapter 432 Soul Eater

After bypassing the huge starry sky city, Rhodes and Jessica walked in the thick black fog for another half an hour before arriving at their destination, the canyon called Scar of Death.

However, when Rhodes saw it, he realized that it was not a canyon, but a split earth.

This unprecedented rift valley is thousands of yards wide and can't be seen at a glance. The huge gap is like a devouring demon, and it seems to reach the bottomless abyss.

Jessica glanced at the astrolabe.

"It's here. There are powerful Soul Eaters lurking in the canyon. They are the terrifying products of the evolution of the black mist itself. They are always active and are very sensitive to changes in spiritual energy. They are threats that must be cleaned up."

Rhode looked at the astonishing rift in front of him and exclaimed, "This is really a spectacle created by nature."

Jessica shook her head lightly: "It may not have been formed naturally. Some of the details in the information sent back by the investigative legion caught the attention of scholars in Wangcheng. They believed that it might be related to the battle that destroyed Starry Sky City 500 years ago. , but it is not certain, therefore, we have a side mission here, which is to investigate the rift valley when the conditions permit."

In his mind, Asa suddenly laughed: "Hehehe, the great successor of Yuantian God, have you noticed? On every section of the cliff in the rift valley, there is a strong pollution and corrosion atmosphere. Of course, this is not natural. Formed, but a blow from the infinite power of darkness."

Rhodes frowned, he already knew what Asa wanted to say.

"Hahaha, have you realized your insignificance? Your arrogance should be restrained a bit. I don't want to see you die so quickly."

Rhodes said lightly: "Asa, if you have anything to say, just say it, if you don't want to make this happy time painful."

Asa snorted coldly.

"Don't always threaten me with this, the great evil spirit is not afraid of pain at all, I just kept my promise to you, I always firmly believe that the world will eventually fall into darkness forever, no matter what I do, it will not change this , then why can't I have some fun with you? Kekeke..."

Seeing that Rhodes had a tendency to enter a dream, he said immediately.

"This is obviously the remains of a certain battlefield. In addition to the Soul Eater formed from the black mist, you will also face monsters formed from the twisted and corrupted corpses of the strong."

Rhode's heart sank, and he told Jessica what Asa said.

Jessica praised: "Little Rhodes, your thinking is really sharp, there is indeed such a possibility, we have to be careful."

She walked to the edge of the canyon and looked down.

"Let's go down from here, we must first find our companions who are fighting here."

With a deep leap, she jumped directly into the bottomless canyon.

Rhodes followed immediately, and the thick black mist rolled around him, and the strong erosion penetrated the protection of the red tearstone, causing his humanity to slowly decline.

"Drink the purification potion."

Jessica's voice came from beside her ear.

Rhodes took out an empty bottle from his arms and dealt with it.

"Drinked."

"Little Rhodes, I didn't hear the sound of liquid and swallowing. I know your soul resistance is very high, but at this time, don't save."

Rhodes could only take out a bottle of water from the dream and drink it.

"Very well, after landing, remember to keep up with my footsteps, let's not stay too long."

"I see."

After an unknown amount of time, the two finally landed.

With a bang, mud splashed everywhere, and a strong rancid smell rushed to the face.

Jessica didn't seem to smell it, and rushed forward with a flash.

Rhodes followed closely behind.

The canyon was extremely gloomy, and the black fog was far thicker than the ground. Rhodes' line of sight was less than [-] yards, but even so, he quickly spotted the monsters in the canyon.

It was a giant that seemed to be made of black silt, its body was melting and reorganizing, its facial features emitted a strong red light, and those glowing red eyes, like two red-hot iron balls, were very frightening.

"Is this the Soul Eater?"

Rhodes briefly described what he saw.

Jessica raised her slender eyebrows slightly: "That's right, this is the Soul Eater, it is the purest black mist monster, it has super corrupt and erosive abilities, and it can damage the soul extremely, so it is Known as the Soul Eater."

"What is the purest black mist monster?"

"It is a monster born of the black mist with its own nature, not according to other nature factors."

In his mind, the Book of Knowledge suddenly shouted: "It's a symbiosis, they are the symbiosis of Black Mist!"

Rhodes suddenly realized that no matter what kind of monster, in the eternal silence, the final destination is the same.

Only monsters that have been corrupted to the extreme, sunk into the deepest darkness, and corroded to the final stage can be called symbionts. They are the terrifying guardians of the black mist and have a special connection with the black mist.

After the source feedback diffused, all those who invaded the dream world were the symbiosis of the black mist.

Unexpectedly, he actually saw a real symbiosis in the material world.

The Book of Knowledge shouted wildly: "Master, kill them, don't let any one go, I have seen divinity, many divinities, the divinity that kills them, and the divinity that assists humans."

"No, no, the book of the future, take a look at the future that killed them."

The Book of the Future said dissatisfied: "My soul has not recovered, and the Soul Eater is very powerful. Even if I use the master's psionic energy, it will consume me a lot."

"Shut up and use it."

The Book of the Future snorted dissatisfiedly, flipping the pages quickly.

Rhodes felt his psionic energy being pulled away quickly.

After a while, he gave the answer that the Book of Knowledge wanted.

"I didn't see the vicious future. Killing them will not further intensify the source feedback. The future has divinity and nightmare fuel. Well, there is a very small chance of getting nightmare gems."

The Book of Knowledge shouted: "Yes, I knew that the symbiosis that killed the black mist would have nightmare fuel. Although this part of the memory is missing, I can know it based on reasoning. It was the right choice."

In the canyon, Rhodes hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak, but suddenly a powerful spiritual energy erupted around him, a tsunami-like fluctuation of spiritual energy rushed towards his face, super powerful spiritual light shot up into the sky, and a huge shadow emerged in the spiritual light.

It was at least a hundred yards high, its body covered with blue scales, and its six huge arms held six great swords.

When the aura fell, it was indeed Jessica's awakened state, the lizard.

Unbelievably powerful psychic energy circulated in her terrifying body.

Rhode looked up at her and asked loudly, "Sister Jessica, are we ready to fight?"

"Yes."

Jessica's voice became strange, with a strange echo, as if speaking in a cave.

"My gut tells me the fight is about to begin."

A crisp bell sounded, and she rang the Bell of Silence, and the disturbance caused by fighting in this area would be less.

Just as Rhodes was about to speak, he saw a huge black shadow rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed.

Jessica's six arms were raised high and swung down violently.

There was a loud bang.

The giant sword collided with the black shadow, and the fluctuations caused by the collision of super-powerful spiritual energy spread like lightning. The air seemed to be thundered, and the entire canyon flickered.

After a few seconds, Rhodes could see clearly that the black shadow was the Soul Eater, and its arms supported the six giant swords like a shield.

The six-armed snake demon screamed, and the six huge swords slashed down like a windmill.

The Soul Eater could only raise his arms to block, the huge sword slashed on its arms, splashing black mud.

In just a split second, the six-armed snake suppressed it, and the powerful attack came like a storm, causing the Soul Eater's body to tremble, its soul to tremble, and its spiritual energy to run sluggishly.

But at the next moment, the red light on the Soul Eater's five sense organs flourished, and a black corrosive aura gushed out from its body.

"careful!"

This is another voice, coming from behind Soul Eater.

Rhodes looked around and was surprised to find that this was an old acquaintance.

Chief Instructor, Elite Knight Captain Sauron.

During the period of the secret branch, he taught Rhodes basic combat, and he also led Rhodes' initial growth.

I didn't expect to see him here.

However, Rhodes remembered very clearly, isn't he a second-level combatant?
Sauron came rushing from a distance. He looked very embarrassed. His armor was torn and splattered with mud. Helmet was half broken. There was a penetrating wound on his thigh, which only had a simple bandage, and his long sword was broken. , he only held a half-broken sword.

"Jessica, that Soul Eater is very dangerous. Once it falls into a disadvantage, it will try to devour your soul!"

But it was already too late. In the next instant, the red light from the Soul Eater's five sense organs shot out and landed on the Hexapod.

Jessica's body shook, her six arms softened, and the six giant swords fell to the ground with a bang, and the blades hit the ground.

"Help her!" Sauron shouted anxiously, "The Guardian Pavilion..."

He choked suddenly, his eyes widened.

"Rhodes? You are Rhodes? Why are you here? When did the Starry Sky City battlefield allow fighters below the first level to come in?"

But the next moment, he saw Rhodes' guardian robe and the triple flame symbol on his neckline.

Sauron was so surprised, it was as if his eyeballs were about to pop out.

"Rhode, you, have you been promoted to Guardian??"

Rhodes said in a deep voice, "Yes, Teacher Sauron, how can I help her?"

Sauron suddenly came back to his senses: "We hit its head with the most powerful attack to interrupt its devouring! Otherwise, Jessica will fight it at the soul level, which is very dangerous."

Rhodes trembled in his heart, and replied, "Okay."

Sauron shouted: "Don't use your psychic cannon, don't use energy-based attacks, use strikes."

Rhodes decisively drew out the long sword Starry Night, and replied: "Okay!"

Sauron was shocked, and found for the first time that his former students were completely different from before.

But distracting thoughts passed in a flash, Sauron jumped up one step at a time, held the sword in both hands, and shouted, a flash of inspiration flashed on the dagger, and a forty-yard-long giant sword appeared in his hand. Psionic sword.

Rhodes took a deep breath, pointed his toes, and rose into the air.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Asa sneer in the dream.

Rhodes frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Asa said coldly: "Look carefully, Soul Eater's head."

Rhodes concentrated his mind and looked up, only to see the spiritual energy flowing in the head of the Soul Eater, without any flaws, and it was even thicker than other parts of the body.

Asa sneered and said, "Its head is the most defensive part of its body. It is impossible for you to defeat such a strong spiritual power."

Rhodes frowned: "What's going on?"

The Book of Knowledge suddenly said: "I see! There are other powerful existences here, which have affected the Soul Eaters and changed their weaknesses. No wonder I always feel that there is something wrong with the Soul Eaters here."

"Hahahahaha!"

Asa laughed wildly.

"I've seen a tragedy happen, it will be the best embellishment to my boring time, a strong warrior, died in a blink of an eye, hahahahahaha, 'If there is one person who can save the world, That must be me', the funniest joke I've ever heard, 'Undefeated' Jessica, hahahahaha."

Laughter continued, and even those who had always ignored Asa's book of knowledge became angry.

"Owner……"

But Rhodes was still calm. He turned his blade upside down and cut a gash on his arm. Blood rushed out, staining his robe red.

"Don't worry, book, even if it is the hardest, I will break it."

Asa expressed his attitude with an even more mocking laugh.

Rhodes ignored him, and with a thought, touched the tenth star in the soul [Crimson Tears].

boom!
Blazing flames spewed out from the soul, engulfing him instantly.

[Soul Burning]: Ignite the power of the soul, stimulate the inner potential, and greatly increase the strength of spiritual energy.

dong dong!

Rhode's heart beat twice, as if it caused the void to vibrate, and his spiritual energy surged to an unprecedented degree.

The blood on his body quickly evaporated, and the flames became more intense.

[Soul Burning]: Sprinkling more blood can greatly increase the intensity of [Soul Burning].

Huge waves of spiritual energy emanated from Rhodes, and because it was too large, it seemed heavy and slow.

Sauron was surprised: "Rhods, your psionic ability...has reached this level?"

Rhodes felt surging power in his body, as if infinite spiritual energy filled his soul.

"Teacher Sauron, let's make a move together."

"it is good."

Sauron put away his distracting thoughts and raised the forty-yard giant sword. The cold light on the sword became one piece. He shouted loudly, and the giant sword broke through the air and slashed down with great force.

On the other side, Rhodes took another deep breath, and gently touched the biggest star in his soul.

【Giant Power】

For a moment, majestic spiritual energy rose from Rhodes, like a tsunami that flooded the world.

The moment it appeared, the flame of [Soul Burning] rapidly expanded, and more powerful spiritual energy flashed out of Rhodes.

Rhodes felt this unparalleled spiritual energy, concentrated them all in his hands, and transformed them into destructive power with the highest efficiency.

Advanced combat skills, soul strike!
brush!
The Starry Night sword slashed down with unimaginable power, and the aura on the blade almost cut through the space.

boom!
Sauron's giant sword slashed first, and the sharp blade collided with Soul Eater's head, making a loud roar.

when.

The giant sword broke from it, shattered, and turned into dust.

Sauron's complexion suddenly faded.

But the next moment, Rhodes' sword arrived.

The Starry Night Sword is only a yard long, and compared to the giant sword, it looks like an embroidery needle, but the moment its clear sword edge hits the Soul Eater, a white light flashes, and the sky and the earth seem to be cut open, and the canyon seems to be cut. It became two pieces, and the huge sword wave went straight down, cutting the Soul Eater in half, and the remaining power continued to penetrate directly into the ground.

A huge roar erupted, and dust was flying within a thousand yards.

A cloud of gray air flew over.

【Soul of the Soul Eater】

【Extremely great soul】

【Own ten copies of Nightmare Fuel】

[This is the manifestation of the black mist, the projection of the essence, erosion, corruption, devouring, powerful, and indestructible. 】

The dark text flashed before his eyes, and Rhodes flew down.

The huge Soul Eater split in half and fell behind him.

Under the feet, there was a sword mark hundreds of yards long.

Black dust rose, and the six-armed snake demon suddenly woke up.

"What happened?"
