c385: [True Mark]

“Swish!”

As this clear cutting sound rang out, the storm-like evil aura above Cosmos froze, ceasing its surge.

Walls of black fog, formed from the evil aura, tried to block the slash, but were effortlessly cut down by the shining Holy Sword.

And Lilith, protected by the evil aura, took the brilliant strike head-on.

“Drip…”

In the silent air, the sound of dripping blood was incredibly jarring, as crimson blood flowed from Lilith’s chest.

The Holy Sword pierced Lilith’s chest, penetrating through her back, inflicting a truly fatal wound upon the evil god.

Feeling the impact of the successful strike, Shien’s first emotion wasn’t joy, but relief.

He should indeed be relieved.

Although Lilith had no rationality or consciousness and thus didn’t know how to hold back, unleashing her power recklessly with the intent to destroy everything, she also had a major weakness.

At least, if Lilith had rationality and consciousness, she wouldn’t instinctively rely solely on her power to fight.

Because this evil god only knew how to fight with her power, Shien, who could negate the effects of divine powers with his [Blessing], was able to ignore her power.

And if Lilith had rationality and consciousness, facing the Holy Sword that could vanquish all evil, she definitely wouldn’t use the evil aura to defend herself.

Leaving everything to instinct naturally resulted in being inflexible, unable to adapt and counter others’ strategies.

Under such circumstances, Shien’s strike successfully landed.

The Holy Sword’s light continuously purified the evil aura on Lilith, suppressing the power of darkness and chaos, causing the evil aura enveloping Cosmos to tremble, on the verge of collapsing.

Until…

“Bang—!”

A muffled, thunderous sound echoed in the air.

Shien, still in relief, didn’t even have time to react before he was sent flying by a terrifying force, crashing into the ground like a meteor, shattering the earth around him.

This attack came from Lilith’s black wings.

One of Lilith’s wings struck Shien, sending him flying.

However, Shien’s Holy Sword remained embedded in Lilith’s chest, causing her to bleed continuously as she descended from the sky and landed on the ground.

“Cough…!”

Shien pushed away the rubble burying him, coughing as he climbed out of the deep crater.

Upon closer inspection, a trace of blood trickled from the corner of Shien’s mouth.

Yes, Shien was injured.

Although the injury wasn’t serious, he was indeed injured.

“Damn it…”

Feeling the faint pain, Shien smiled wryly.

That attack from Lilith had been weakened by 99% due to the Holy Sword’s protection, and he also had the protection of various resistance skills, yet he was still injured?

How terrifying would it be if he had taken the full force of that attack?

Shien didn’t dare to think about it.

Of course, this level of injury was to be expected.

The most terrifying moment for a truly ferocious being wasn’t during their normal state, but their final counterattack before death.

Lilith was now like a wounded beast, completely out of control.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” …

Roaring sounds echoed as storms of evil aura continuously erupted from Lilith’s body, destroying everything around her.

However, the Holy Sword embedded in her chest was still active, continuously purifying and dispelling her evil aura, causing her to rampage and wreak havoc on her surroundings, but she could no longer unleash such terrifying power on a large scale.

If it weren’t for this, Lilith, in her berserk state, would definitely destroy the barrier, sinking the Stalim Duchy, even the Kingdom of Mitra, into the ground.

Now, the Holy Sword was suppressing her power to the greatest extent, reducing her from an invincible destroyer to a less threatening, albeit still dangerous, force of destruction.

However, even so, under the bombardment of Lilith’s terrifying storms of evil aura, Cosmos trembled frequently, the area within several kilometers of Lilith constantly being impacted, shattered, and shattered again.

“So, what should I do now?”

Shien stood up, clutching his chest, looking at Lilith, who was frantically destroying everything, his mind racing.

At this moment, a figure quickly rushed towards him.

“Wha…!?”

Shien noticed the figure and his expression changed. Before he could react, the figure pounced into his arms.

Then, Shien felt a sharp pain in his arm.

The newcomer, without hesitation, had raised his arm and bit him hard.

This bite completely ignored Shien’s resistance skills, leaving a clear teeth mark on his arm.
