Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2074 Eternal Life in the Fire

[Wide-area prohibition] In the independent space separated.

Xia Duo finally saw the true appearance of the attackers. He couldn't tell whether they were demon descendants, but they were all in the form of unstable saints, constantly radiating light to the outside world.

Unsurprisingly, a word emerged in Xia Duo's mind - "dead man"!
The saint form is a special form of the high-level mage's liberation power. Even the high-level mage can't maintain it for a long time. Once it crosses the limit, it will irreversibly turn into light and dissipate.

But the process of dissipating does not mean "unstable", it just can no longer be transformed into a flesh and blood body to stay on the material plane.

The saint form is essentially a special state of the soul, which will always be drawn by the outer plane, and the process of dissipating light can also be seen as the struggle process of the soul when it is forced to leave the main plane.

Therefore, those "unstable" saint forms are likely to be artificially created.

Before today, Xia Duo had never thought that he could obtain power close to the heyday of a high-level mage in this way, let alone saw such an existence with his own eyes.

After obtaining the [Avatar of Xilin's Saint Form], he felt that this should be the pinnacle of the elf magic system. He did not expect that there would be something even more exaggerated - forcibly transforming a non-high mage into the form of a saint!
To some extent, it can already be compared with the creation of Arcane Fire in the Nether magic system.

Xia Duo is sure that elves who have always paid attention to tradition would never dare to play such a fancy game!

When "seeing" those unstable saint forms, the suspicion of the demon descendants immediately climbed to more than [-]% in his heart!
Except for the special demon descendants of the Illuminati who are influenced by other timelines, it is estimated that there is no suspect who is proficient in the elf magic system and has a deep research on the essence of magic.

"It's really you guys?! You really don't know how to live or die!"

Now that there is a relatively clear object of suspicion, Xia Duo no longer has any scruples, and immediately summons [Light of Annihilation], intending to completely annihilate him.

As for the catch that Badigal reminded just now, it is very difficult to realize this situation now, and even trying to stop the opponent's soul is not realistic.

Even in the unstable form of a saint, it still has quite powerful power before it dissipates to the last moment, enough to counter most of the effects of imprisoning the soul.

And when they dissipate completely, unless they can fight against the soul circulation system of the current world, it is possible to capture them. Face hunt!

The latter is actually very unrealistic. The outer plane is vast and boundless. Who knows where those demons will be reincarnated, and the reincarnation time is also a problem.

Basically letting their sage form dissipate means letting them run away.

So Xia Duo needs to destroy the soul, which is actually taking a certain risk of blasphemy, but the god of death guards more about the order of death than life or death itself.

In other words, God of Death doesn't care about longevity, but opposes immortality. The kind of high-level mage can already be regarded as eternal life, but the power will be limited.

Now that Xia Duo killed this man-made high-ranking mage, in a sense he was fulfilling the will of the god of death!

Interpreting divine will is not exclusive to priests. As a living creature, Xia Duo naturally has the right to interpret death and even the order of death.

Judging from the fact that the great arcanist prolongs his life and that many Nether sorcerers did not suffer divine punishment for killing their souls, Xia Duo's interpretation should largely be in line with the will of the gods.

But regardless of whether it violated the will of the gods, Xia Duo had made up his mind. After all, even if he was a necromancer in Netheril, he was only strangled by the death priests and the Sevington Council, and did not directly suffer divine punishment.

In this way, he didn't even have the last trace of worries. Maybe he would be liquidated after death, but if there was a day when he died, then he would admit it.

At least in the foreseeable future, as long as he doesn't want to die, then he really won't die.

……

As the light of annihilation fell, that independent space quickly melted into nothingness, and even the space itself disappeared, not to mention a few high-ranking mages who forcibly transformed into the form of saints.

Moreover, because of the division and control of space by the wide-area prohibition, the Annihilation Light hardly caused any damage to the city of Sevington.

The only pity is that he failed to survive, but the performance of the other party is enough for Xia Duo to identify him as a demon. Even if he guessed wrong, dealing with the demon was in his plan, or to save the main plane necessary steps.

As for other possible behind-the-scenes masters, as long as they are not demons that can change history and trigger a crisis of extinction, it is more than enough for Seven Towers to investigate and deal with them.

For Xia Duo himself, although the Floating Void City did not show up this time, the iconic wide-area restriction and annihilation light can still make many interested people see the mighty power of the Floating Void City.

This should make his next travel plans much smoother!
……

And just when Xia Duo completely wiped out the attackers, the ceremony of Master Yerevan in the square had reached a critical moment, and the turbulent gathering clouds enveloped the body of the master, making it look like a god and demon descending into the world.

It's a pity that only Xia Duo was able to see such a wonderful scene. Of course, other spellcasters may also have their unique perspectives of observation and perception that Xia Duo does not have.

From the perspective of the power of order, the cycle has been completed, and the mighty wave of power of order is centered on Yerevan, pouring out to the outside world, and then returning through various tangible and intangible nodes.

At this time, Xia Duo had already dealt with the attacker and briefly explained to Badigal the reason why he could not be captured alive.

The next moment, a soul-touching impact suddenly appeared in Offa Square, Sevington, and even all time and space that could be affected.

"boom--"

Although not the person involved, Xia Duo, who had participated in the princess's ascension ceremony before, knew that the most critical time had finally arrived.

That time the princess successfully became a god after such a strange sound, so what about Master Yerevan this time?
Although he knew the taboo of "not looking directly at God", Xia Duo still looked at Master Yerevan firmly. The master in the clouds was peaceful, but he could also feel a vast and incomparable power gradually awakening in him .

This kind of power made Master Yerevan's face gradually blurred, and an invisible majesty penetrated the space and reached people's hearts, making people feel afraid to look directly at him.

But Xia Duo still didn't turn his gaze away, and stared straight at Yerevan's body shrouded in clouds and divine light. At this moment, even those ordinary onlookers who didn't know the inside story would probably think of the time when the princess ascended to the gods two years ago scene.

There is no need to teach, the name of "Bernum Messis" immediately echoed in the square, and the voice was so loud and tidy that it went straight to the sky, which made people's faces change.

At this moment, Xia Duo's face also changed, but he was not shocked by such a strong atmosphere of faith in the square, but Master Yerevan had a completely different vision from the princess's ascension——

I don't know when, a puff of white gold flames appeared on the master's body, covering it from head to toe. The master's expression did not show the slightest pain, but a strong bad premonition emerged in Xia Duo's heart.
