Moreover, the ripples of energy stirred by these green patterns were very slight, only causing a widespread diffusion of energy during contact attacks. This suggested that the green patterns represented a highly versatile method of energy manipulation, which would not easily destroy plane rules and could be broadly applied across countless planes.
While the Lord of the Flameless was pondering, the green patterns had already formed a new structure, like a green ring that was slowly rising from Angel’s hand.
The Lord of the Flameless’s expression was solemn, ready for battle.
After some probing, the Lord of the Flameless no longer underestimated the human across from Him.
The reason the Lord of the Flameless had not launched an offensive was to use the incident with the green patterns to test Angel’s attack methods and styles.
However, to the Lord of the Flameless’s surprise, the ring formed by the green patterns was not an attack.
The ring of green patterns floated up high into the sky, and while the Lord of the Flameless was wondering, it suddenly transformed, expanding countless times in an instant! A single green pattern hung aloft, while the remainder descended like a Protective Cover from high above.
The Lord of the Flameless and Angel were both enveloped within this immense “Green Ring.”
Behind the Lord of the Flameless was a wall of green patterns, full of activity. He tested it with the tip of His tail blade, but even using all His strength, He could not break through the wall of green patterns.
His eyebrows gradually furrowed, as He had expected a powerful counterattack, but instead, the human had preemptively limited His range of movement.
Or perhaps, limited His… escape.
“Do you have such confidence to detain me here?” the Lord of the Flameless asked with an icy expression, looking at Angel who stood in opposition.
As His words ended, a terrifying black shadow slowly rose behind the Lord of the Flameless!
The shadow seemed endless, spreading into the deep and dark abyss.
A terrifying roar, as if emanating from the Abyssal Depths, caused a rift to suddenly open in the center of the black shadow—
Chilly green eyes ethereally appeared behind the Lord of the Flameless.
Outside the “Green Ring,” Greerwu watched the dark shadow within the ring with a shocked gaz
e, his lips trembling as he said, “This is… the True Spirit of the Demon God!”
Unlike the True Spirit unsealed by Aoluxiya, this was the actual True Spirit of the Demon God!
For the Demon God, the true body was used for abyssal lurking, the true name for diffusion, while the True Spirit signified awe and intimidation!
During the previous battle between the Lord of the Flameless and Aoluxiya, what had been used was a “pseudo true body,” activated by the bloodline of this avatar of the Lord of the Flameless.
And the true body of the Demon God Lord of the Flameless actually lay hidden within the Abyssal Depths.
But now, the True Spirit of the Demon God summoned by the Lord of the Flameless was not a “pseudo True Spirit,” but the actual True Spirit that had crossed over from the Abyssal Depths!
Without the fury of a thunderstorm, the True Spirit of the Demon God would not possibly appear in this world at this time!
…
“I would like to see what means you have to detain me!”
As His voice fell, within the “Green Ring,” the True Spirit of the Demon God began to spread and expand. The black shadow turned into countless tentacles, reaching towards Angel.
Angel’s feet were flashing with green patterns. Undaunted by the black shadow, He stepped directly on it and leaped into the sky.
The black shadow, when touched by the green patterns, emitted a hissing noise as its energy intertwined and was eroded by the green patterns.
In the end, the green patterns vanished, but the consumed black shadow was twice as much as the green patterns!
The Lord of the Flameless had a dark expression, waving a hand to send more rolling black shadows charging at Angel.
Angel, dodging continuously in midair with an elegant gait, avoided the black shadow’s frighteningly fast advances, with none able to touch him.
It appeared as though the Lord of the Flameless was the one attacking and Angel was dodging, but that was not the case.
As Angel dodged the black shadows, green patterns leaped from his body like fireflies being sprinkled, these patterns also penetrated the black shadow in reverse.
One green pattern could dissolve a large swathe of black shadow.
Under the Lord of the Flameless’s dark and icy gaze, Angel approached Him with an elegant step, already within less than ten meters.
Suddenly, a light flashed across Angel’s shadowy features.
The Lord of the Flameless only felt a scoffing laugh in His ears before His eyes were obscured by a brilliance.
