Perhaps like Aoluxiya, he would disregard everything for the so-called future, even going so far as to go against his own “father” and turn his weapon upon him.
But the Lord of the Flameless had already reached the pinnacle; compared to a vague and elusive future, he thought it was better to choose restraint.
The Lord of the Flameless had made up his mind; however, as he was about to act on his decision, he suddenly paused, as something in the corner of his eye caught his attention—a detail on Angel’s body.
Cracks had appeared on his arm, and bits of blood were seeping out from them.
A dim light flickered in the eyes of the Lord of the Flameless. During their earlier encounter, he had not injured the other party, so what was this sudden bursting wound all about?
An answer emerged from the depths of his heart: Even with the advent of the Phantom Shadow, the flesh was too weak.
With this thought, the Lord of the Flameless recalled his previous actions, utilizing the energy storm to minimize losses when he knew defeat was imminent.
In his mind, the energy storm was merely a means to escape, but on reflection, could it have caused unexpected harm?
Maybe his techniques were powerful, but a weak body was the limitation!
Realizing this, the Lord of the Flameless began to reassess the pros and cons, weighing whether to stay or go. As the ripples of the energy storm subsided, the Lord of the Flameless had made his choice.
Brilliant light and endless flames rose behind the Lord of the Flameless.
With the arrival of the Law Domain, shadows and flames merged in a rhythm like the symphony of world’s end, charging towards Angel with an unstoppable momentum!
In Angel’s eyes, new green patterns sprang forth!
In the interplay of light and shadow, the shadows and green patterns nullified each other at an incredibly fast pace, and the flames were also blocked by the green patterns; however, these were just superficial attacks from the Lord of the Flameless.
What he truly aimed for was—
When there was no protection from the green patterns, it was Angel’s frail body that was his target!
Despite the rapid loss of the True Spirit’s force, the Lord of the Flameless waited for his chance.
And in a moment, he saw an opening, his eyes lit up, and the pre-prepared torrent of energy poured out from the palm of his hand!
Compared to the slow ripples of the energy storm, the Lord of the Flameless chose the most basic form of energy application—the energy torrent. Although basic, the energy torrent had a wider coverage and its impact speed could exceed the limits of the rules!
The moment the energy torrent appeared, the Lord of the Flameless saw a flicker of dimness in Angel’s eyes.
The torrent was incredibly fast, and as Angel’s eyes flickered, it was already surging in front of him.
Angel extended his hand, and with a flash of green light, the energy torrent was briefly stalled.
The Lord of the Flameless was taken aback, only to realize that there were already some green patterns on Angel’s right hand, which could defend only for a moment. Although it was brief, it gave time for the eyes to summon new green patterns and keep the energy torrent at bay.
However, despite blocking the energy torrent, Angel’s body still suffered the physical impact that came with it.
A bursting sound rang out from Angel’s hand, flesh was torn, and the wound was deep enough to reveal bone!
The Lord of the Flameless knew he had found the right method.
As Angel’s blood splattered, the Lord of the Flameless casually cast a Demon God’s Murmuring curse on the blood, attempting to directly harm Angel’s body.
However, as the Lord of the Flameless expected, the Demon God’s Murmuring was blocked by a green pattern.
But the Lord of the Flameless only meant to harass; the real attack was yet to come.
