The Glory of Noxus

[Breaking out of the ground]!

Rek'Sai's dark purple forelimbs were covered in the power of the void, easily drilling through the solid rock underground, causing the ground of the rock village to shake.

Then, the mountain-like towering body turned into a mudslide, ruthlessly crushing half of the rock village.

The tribal hunters and caravan guards, who were already struggling on the brink of life and death due to the sweeping destructive energy, looked at Rek'Sai who was so close to them and felt completely hopeless.

Their swords and courage became extremely weak in the face of absolute power.

As Rek'Sai's body crushed.

The god of death's scythe was waving in the air, reaping their lives, and the atmosphere of despair filled the ruins.

Rek'Sai didn't care about the wailing of ordinary people. His deep eyes stared at Huo Jixing under the guidance of his body's instinct.

This is her real prey!

The hunting instinct bestowed by the Void drove Rek'Sai to open his bloody mouth full of sharp teeth and bite towards Huo Jixing.

Buzz!

The air trembled, and a hurricane with a foul smell roared in, blowing yellow sand all over the sky, and ripple-like traces were rippling in the air.

Huo Jixing's steps were light, as if he was dancing with the wind. With a gentle step, he soared into the air and merged into the yellow sand.

He looked down at Rek'Sai's huge and ferocious head, smelled the indescribable fishy smell in the air, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

As he leaped up, a pair of gorgeous flaming wings slowly spread out behind him. The red-gold flames burned through the yellow sand and carried him soaring into the night sky.

Roar!

When Rek'Sai saw his prey escaping, he let out a low growl and chased after Huo Jixing's figure. His dark purple body, like a mountain, stretched and undulated, exposed on the surface of the oasis.

Under the dim night sky, the stars are dim.

Rek'Sai's huge body and Huo Jixing's tiny figure, one in front and one behind, intertwined in the night.

The majestic body and terrifying power weaved a tornado that rolled up the sky and earth, almost piercing through it.

Huo Jixing arrived at the top of the sky that was towering into the clouds, his body hovered, and he turned to look down at Rek'Sai who was chasing him with a roar.

The winding dark purple body seemed endless, and its tail end was still hidden under the oasis.

Faintly, one could still glimpse a small half of the body hidden in the sand, like the blood of the earth flowing quietly.

Huo Jixing let out a light breath, tightly grasped Lingfeng with both hands, and held it upright in front of his eyes. The green sword blade reflected his cold eyes.

He understood that the previous attacks by the Bakei were because they coveted his star power and wanted to use this power to return to their ascended bodies.

So, why did Rek'Sai suddenly attack?

Huo Jixing suddenly realized that his previous action of killing Malzahar's clone might have caused him to be marked by the Void.

[The Queen's Wrath]!

Rek'Sai looked up at Huo Jixing who was hovering above the sky and roared excitedly.

Guided by the will of the void, he followed his hunting instinct, stretched out his dark purple forelimbs, and prepared to tear his prey into pieces.

"kill!"

Huo Jixing had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Rek'Sai's sharp claws extended out from his front limbs, he immediately swung the spiritual wind in his hand and chopped it down with all his strength.

Sonorous!

The Nanli Vermilion Bird behind him raised its head and cried, then spread its wings and rushed down. The Donghua Azure Dragon also showed signs of returning to the sea, and its dragon roar shook the sky.

At the same time, the Gengjin power belonging to the White Tiger constellation covered the surface of the sword blade, shining with golden light and extremely sharp.

The three-color light flickered, making Huo Jixing look like a god descended to the earth.

Chi!Chi!Chi!

The next moment!

Thousands of sword lights fell from the sky like a meteor shower, cutting through Rek'Sai's body shell with unstoppable force, leaving streaks of blood.

Rek'Sai shook his head and did not choose to retreat. His dark purple forelimbs met Huo Jixing's attack.

Bang!

A dull sound like thunder exploded, shaking the night sky.

The spiritual wind covered with three-color light accurately slashed on Rek'Sai's claws.

Every time a strike is made, sparks will fly around in the air, trying to ignite the air.

Rek'Sai wanted to clench his claws and crush the prey near his palm.

But the power of prey should not be underestimated.

In the head-on confrontation, Rek'Sai's body paused for a moment.

When she regained her movement and tried to clench her claws, she saw her prey all around her body, so she slashed with her sword.

The sword light was dim and spread all over the body.

But to Rek'Sai, the prey's actions were like scratching an itch through a shoe, which only brought a tingling sensation and did not threaten her life at all.

[Wild Bite]!

Rek'Sai shook her head, not ready to continue playing. She looked at Huo Jixing who was walking in front of her, lowered her head without hesitation, and opened her sharp teeth to bite him.

The violent suction force instantly trapped the nearby air, and the light also dimmed a little.

Huo Jixing looked up and noticed Rek'Sai's cold gaze and his undisguised desire to eat him alive.

The star of the horns! The star of the Kui!

With the blessing of many stars, the spiritual wind in Huo Jixing's hand was extremely sharp and stabbed towards Rek'Sai's jaw.

The sword energy was like a rainbow, soaring into the sky.

Sonorous!

The sword blade and sharp teeth collided, and the overflowing sword light washed over Rek'Sai's mouth, causing her to whine, and purple blood sprayed into the air.

Rek'Sai curled up in pain, her hunting instinct telling her that the prey in front of her was not simple.

Just as Rek'Sai was about to launch another attack, his keen perception detected a familiar force attacking from behind.

It's the power of the void!

She thought of the neglected Voidwalker!

When Rek'Sai quietly left the perception range.

Kassadin had already noticed this subtle change.

But he did not try to stop it.

Instead, he stood quietly by, looking deeply at Rek'Sai as he disappeared into the depths of the rock village.

He knew clearly who Rek'Sai's target was, and he was the only one worthy of Rek'Sai's attack.

Kassadin's intention was simple, to use Hobbs as bait and hunt Rek'Sai.

The subsequent scene unfolded just as he had imagined.

Kassadin has a very deep understanding of Rek'Sai. He knows that Rek'Sai has no intelligence of his own and can only act based on instinct and the guidance of the Void.

It was Rek'Sai's attack that allowed Kassadin to see the true strength of Huo Jixing.

The three-color starlight illuminated the night sky, shocking everyone.

"It's my turn to take action!"

Kassadin watched the fierce duel between Rek'Sai and Hojo, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Huo Jixing is indeed very strong and can compete head-on with Rek'Sai.

However, Rek'Sai's void body appeared huge and solid, like an unshakable mountain.

Huo Jixing's attack was the same as his, and was unable to effectively harm the Void Burrowing Beast.

【Walking in the void】!

[Blade of the Void]!

Kassadin held a purple blade in his hand and stepped on the void ripples, flashing forward in the darkness.

As the distance got closer, the Void Blade in his hand made a subtle sword sound, as if too much power was accumulated, and the space around the blade seemed to be distorted by this power.

But he felt that it was still not enough and continued to accumulate the power of the void.

Until Rek'Sai felt pain and shrank his body.

Kassadin's eyes moved, realizing that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had come. Rek'Sai was injured and had not yet noticed his arrival.

hum!

Kassadin disappeared again, his body like lightning, with a purple sword shadow, stabbing towards those deep eyes.

Rek'Sai's body stiffened as he sensed the familiar energy fluctuations coming and realized that he was surrounded.

She let out a sharp cry and prepared to dodge.

However, Huo Jixing would not let Rek'Sai avoid it so easily.

His idea was the same as Kassadin's, and he was ready to keep Rek'Sai.

Buzz!

Huo Jixing gathered all the star power in his body, injected it into the spiritual wind, and slashed towards Rek'Sai's head.

The sword flashed, the space shattered, and the deep purple light shone on the three people in the sky.

Huo Jixing was on top, holding Spirit Wind, with the tip of the sword pointing at Rek'Sai, intending to pierce her head.

Rek'Sai was down there, with half of his body still hidden underground, and there was a flash of madness and distortion in his eyes.

Kassadin appeared near Rek'Sai's head, holding up the Void Blade he was wearing.

Endless void energy surged on the blade, as if it could cut off all light.

His eyes were firm and cold, without any hesitation or fear.

“Crunch! Crunch!”

Rek'Sai let out a painful wail as she chose to avoid Hojixing's attack and take Kassadin's Void Blade head-on.

The Void Blade, which contained tremendous energy, pierced into Rek'Sai's eyes, and the splashing blood soaked Kassadin.

At this moment, it seemed that Rek'Sai was the only one wailing in the world.

But Rek'Sai's pity did not stop Kassadin's attack.

He held down the Void Blade, thrusting the blade as far as he could into Rek'Sai's eye.

Huo Jixing was not to be outdone. He waved the Spirit Wind Sword in his hand, turning into sword shadows and attacking Rek'Sai.

The severely injured Rek'Sai smelled the danger of death, and shook his head violently to drive away Huo Jixing and Kassadin.

Then she dived straight underground and came to the tunnel that had been dug earlier.

The tunnel was extremely dark, with no light in sight.

However, for Rek'Sai, this is her refuge and her home.

Rek'Sai lowered his head and silently wiped the bloody hole in his eye with his forelimbs.

Despite her blurry vision, she did not give up hope.

The Will of the Void grants her the ability to perceive and hunt, allowing her to accurately lock onto Kassadin's position.

In the tunnel, Rek'Sai quietly waited for his opportunity, his body slowly moving.

She knew she couldn't stay here for too long, otherwise the prey on the surface would find her.

So, she used the channel that had been dug before and moved frequently to create an illusion.

"Is she preparing to escape?"

Kassadin stretched out his finger and gently brushed the blood on the Void Blade, with a flash of thought in his eyes.

He looked at the energy aura belonging to Rek'Sai deep underground and cast his gaze towards Huo Jixing.

"Looking at the direction, we need to leave the oasis."

A red-gold glow lit up in Huo Jixing's eyes, and he saw the dark purple cloud representing Rek'Sai moving away from the village.

"Rek'Sai has been badly damaged and now looks like a frightened bird. He won't come back, will he?"

"Don't underestimate void creatures."

Kassadin shook his head, his tone slightly serious.

"As long as Rek'Sai is not completely dead, he can be healed by the power of the void and recover as before."

This is also the reason why the void creatures have never been extinct after thousands of years.

"What should we do now? Should we force Rek'Sai to stay?" Huo Jixing looked at Kassadin and asked.

He didn't know much about void creatures, relying mostly on rumors and memories from past lives.

He is far inferior to Kassadin, who has been dealing with the void for many years.

The most important thing is that Rek'Sai's body is too amazing. Even if she is seriously injured, it will take a lot of effort to forcibly keep her.

Kassadin's gaze first lingered on the rocky village below, and saw that the chaos was gradually subsiding.

Then, he pondered for a while and said, "Let's go and take a look!"

Huo Jixing followed closely behind. The two of them walked at a neither fast nor slow pace, maintaining a tacit distance and landing not far behind Rek'Sai.

Just as they were about to leave the oasis, Rek'Sai's speed slowed down significantly, as if he was carrying a heavy burden.

Kassadin looked surprised and suddenly stopped moving forward, frowned and looked around.

He has never been defeated in the battles with void creatures for so many years, relying not only on his own abilities but also on his vigilance.

Before every crisis, he could always sense the subtle changes in advance.

At this moment, his intuition once again told him that something was wrong.

Huo Jixing seemed to sense something and also stopped.

Rek'Sai, who was supposed to escape, suddenly disappeared for some unknown reason.

No matter how he used [Suzaku: Red Eyes and Flaming Pupils], he could not find Rek'Sai's cloud.

It seemed to have merged into the earth, leaving no trace.

This sudden change gave Huo Jixing a sense of foreboding.

"Be careful, Rek'Sai might counterattack." Kassadin whispered, reminding them to be alert.

Suddenly!

Kassadin and Huo Jixing looked down at the edge of the oasis, and a huge deep purple hole appeared silently.

The aura belonging to Rek'Sai rose into the sky.

[Void Rush]!

The disappeared Rek'Sai reappeared, and was so close to Kassadin and Hobbs, controlling the void energy and launching a final counterattack.

Her face was hideous, her mouth was wide open, and there was purple blood at the corners of her mouth.

"The invisible and ruthless Rek'Sai?"

Huo Jixing somewhat understood why Rek'Sai could avoid his perception, and also understood the origin of her name, Void Elf.

Not only can she escape underground in the desert, she can also escape in the void.

"I also have the power of the void!" Kassadin murmured as he looked at the void energy that filled his vision.

"Your magic doesn't work on me!"

He ignored the void energy surging around him and aimed the Void Blade he was wearing at Rek'Sai's claws.

Click!

Rek'Sai, blessed with the power of the void, stretched out his forelimbs, ignoring the void blade piercing his palm, and hit Kassadin hard, knocking the void walker away.

The sound of breaking bones was heard, and Kassadin's right hand wearing the Void Blade bent unnaturally, revealing bloody bone stumps.

Huo Jixing was not in a hurry. He held the Spirit Wind in front of him and resisted Rek'Sai's final counterattack.

Fortunately, Kassadin bore most of the force, so he just shook slightly.

Wait until the void storm subsides.

Rek'Sai disappeared, leaving behind a huge dark pit. Kassadin slowly climbed up from the edge.
