Ten seconds!
Those brief ten seconds seemed to stretch on forever.
Qin Chuan's senses sharpened to their limit, and everything around him fell utterly still.
The torrent of shadow Scripps had unleashed advanced like a frozen black waterfall. The twisted monsters struggling and disintegrating within it moved with the stiffness of a crude stop-motion film. Even the ripples of energy from each beat of the enormous "heart" became visible waves spreading slowly outward.
Only he moved freely, like a ghost beyond the grip of time!
"Heh heh... Burning through your potential, are you? What a desperate struggle!" There was a hint of surprise in the malicious consciousness, but far more mockery.
"Hmph. He's just fighting a losing battle. So what if he reaches the core? It won't be destroyed that easily." Another voice rang with contempt.
Qin Chuan paid the voices no mind.
All he saw was the enormous "heart" ahead, writhing and radiating endless chaos and madness!
Transforming the Shadow Domain into a Divine Kingdom, protecting Yan Country, facing the coming catastrophe... Every goal hinged on this moment!
Night of No Light's effects had long since reached their maximum. His attack speed had climbed to a terrifying peak, and every strike had a chance to deal multiple hits.
The power of the Destruction Ring stood ready to tear through any defense.
The five stacks of hatred accumulated through Hatred Conversion were like a volcano on the verge of eruption!
Without the slightest hesitation, he became a streak of black lightning too fast to follow and crossed the remaining distance in an instant!
Die!
The cold word sounded in his mind.
Shadow Strike fused with Grief Strike!
King's Judgment enhanced by Hatred Burst!
Night of No Light and Moment of Utmost Darkness erupted with unprecedented light at the same time!
