Have You Ever Seen the Light of a Star Going Supernova? Might of An-Utu-Unleashed!

Then it nestled securely behind the wooden shield, devouring the opponent's flesh and blood to strengthen itself.

Therefore, some sharp-eyed people can see that Infinite Serpent is getting more and more ferocious as it is attacked.

The strange-looking blood flowing from the Vortex Archon proved that it was indeed injured. However, since the chainsaw itself did not have the characteristic of being difficult to heal after injury, the severed head quickly grew back.

So Chen Luo doesn't really like chopping off other people's heads. It's just that if you don't use a chainsaw, the head is more likely to regrow. Although if you use a chainsaw, the head will grow back eventually, even though recovery is very slow.

It's a war of attrition now.

Osial's power to control the sea was indeed powerful enough. Every time she was injured, she would fiercely create a whirlpool to slow down the movement speed of the Infinite Serpent and launch an attack. However, it was perfectly defended by the Hilichurl Wooden Shield, and then she would knock the opponent back, pushing it further away from Liyue Harbor.

Therefore, the opponent's main body, which occasionally surfaced above the sea, also suffered considerable damage from the chainsaw cutting.

The opponent's howling is no longer as powerful as it was at the beginning.

Although Osial, as a demon god, has the power to control water, don't think that the Infinite Serpent is just big and strong. After being assimilated by the demon world, it has grown even more outstanding in the areas of shadow and dark lightning.

Strikes of dark lightning appeared in the shadowy sea, and a deadly crisis lurking in the shadows was constantly aimed at the Osial, the Vortex Archon.

The fighting was fierce on the surface of the sea, but even fiercer underwater.

On the surface of the sea, it's a close-quarters battle, fists... and saws cutting into flesh; beneath the surface, it's a fight of power and one's own strength.

The original peak state of the Osial, the Vortex Archon was definitely much stronger than it is now. Although it is uncertain whether he was stronger than the current Infinite Serpent, he would at least not have been beaten so badly by the Infinite Serpent. But what can we do when Osial has been suppressed for more than 2,000 years?

As a Snake Snake with Melee Grandmaster of both melee and Cold Weapon Grandmaster, wielding a shield in its left hand and a chainsaw in its right, it treats fighting Osial as a piece of cake.

Moreover, Osial himself was being held back by a Spoon Demon.

Therefore, in the battle at sea, the opponent was completely powerless to fight back.

The battle beneath the sea, under the power of Osial, saw whirlpools surging in the darkness, frantically attacking the Infinite Serpent. However, some of these attacks were evaded by the Infinite Serpent's graceful movements, while others were corrupted by dark lightning and shadows.

The Savior's blessing upon the Infinite Serpent was also manifested in its power!

Although some damage did hit the Infinite Serpent, after passing through layers of damage reduction enhanced by those attributes, the damage inflicted on the Infinite Serpent was negligible. Furthermore, the Infinite Serpent's regeneration ability was inherited from the Little Evil God and was not much weaker than that of Osial.

Two big guys, and big guys with extremely high recovery abilities, fighting would probably take hours.

Fortunately, after undergoing various enhancements, Infinite Serpent overpowered Osial.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should only take 30 minutes to take down the opponent, and 20 minutes have already passed.

Throughout the entire process, Chen Luo did not use any of his other abilities besides Infinite Serpent.

The Herrscher of Void, Herrscher of Thunder, Herrscher of Corrosion, Fate Threads, and Herrscher of Knowledge were not used.

You speak of the Herrscher of Domination Authority?

This is actually being used, and currently in use.

Why do you think Chen Luo dragged it out for half an hour instead of using his Herrscher Authority or other abilities to finish the battle early during the Infinite Serpent fight?

Isn't it because of the Archon Residue that the other party might produce?

Within those 20 minutes, Chen Luo unleashed almost his full Herrscher of Domination Authority, weaving countless threads layer by layer through the area where the Infinite Serpent and the Osial, the Vortex Archon were fighting.

Hundreds of meters long silk threads trapped the Vortex Archon and the Infinite Serpent within a giant sphere, half of which was above sea level and half below, forming a transparent dome.

The power of the Herrscher of Domination is inherently highly concealed, and since the Vortex Archon is now unable to speak or howl after being beaten, Chen Luo's actions in the shadows are naturally undetectable.

After 20 minutes of weaving, the large cover is now almost finished.

Since it's about weaving a protective barrier, there's naturally a priority. Chen Luo mainly wove the underwater barrier first, which is why the blood flowing from the Vortex Archon's body didn't erode the entire sea area.

All of this is to prevent the Archon Residue that would be generated after the opponent is killed.

Based solely on authority, the opponent's authority level cannot exceed that of the Herrscher of Domination Authority. In any case, it cannot be SS rank. As long as it does not exceed S-level, the threads formed by Chen Luo's Herrscher of Domination Authority can block one wave.

We've probably reached a point where even if the Archon Residue erupt in the most unexpected way, we can keep them away from Liyue Harbor as not to harm its residents.

The time is ripe.

As for why not just send the Vortex Archon to the War Domain and easily crush him...

Do you think Chen Luo wouldn't want to? If he went to the War Domain, wouldn't Chen Luo be able to crush his opponent at will? He wouldn't need to go through all that trouble by having Infinite Serpent fight him to buy time; he could just unleash countless Insanely Modified Thermobaric Bomb bombs to send him to meet his mother.

After all, there's no need to worry about environmental pollution in the War Domain, since everyone will be confined to the space of the War Domain anyway.

The problem is that this special mission for Samsung has additional requirements besides defeating the Vortex Archon and protecting Liyue.

Special requirement: To allow the people of Liyue to witness the entire process of the demise of the Vortex Archon.

Perhaps it is because these people's wish is to defeat the Vortex Archon that they have such a special request.

After all, it's a special mission, so it's normal that it's somewhat different from normal missions.

Chen Luo had no choice; Chen Luo didn't want to serve these people, but they were giving him far too much.

But it's precisely because this task is difficult and has special requirements that it's given so much, isn't it?

My upgrade card, sob sob sob...

"Aww..." The roar of the Osial, the Vortex Archon had become low and weak.

If nothing unexpected happens, the other party will be finished very soon.

However, the truth is that accidents are meant to happen.

"Awooo!" A sound that was extremely similar to the roar of the Vortex Archon rang out from afar.

The Vortex Archon was extremely excited upon hearing this voice.

So, if nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen.

Because Chen Luo had taken a little too long to defeat the Vortex Archon, the Vortex Archon's wife, who was also the Osial, the Vortex Archon's last follower, Báche.

... They've come all this way to be killed.

Chen Luo looked at the enormous silk net he had painstakingly woven, which was only expected to contain the Archon Residue of the Osial, the Vortex Archon, and then glanced at the Vortex Archon's wife swimming towards him. He stopped playing the erhu and stood up from his chair.

Infinite Serpent already has enough buffs, and the battle has progressed to the point where it doesn't need the Erhu buff anymore. Besides, Infinite Serpent isn't a citizen of Liyue, so the morale boost is useless to him. Therefore, Chen Luo decided to temporarily put it away.

"Chen Luo, you don't need to worry about it. Focus on dealing with the Vortex Archon. We'll handle it," said Cloud Retainer quickly.

"What is this monster that looks so much like the Osial, the Vortex Archon?" Ying couldn't help but ask.

"Báche, wife of the 'Vortex Archon' Osial, and also Osial's last follower. However, its strength is not as great as the Vortex Archon, so we can handle it," said Cloud Retainer.

The wife of the Osial, the Vortex Archon is not nearly as strong as Osial, otherwise she could have fought for supremacy.

And look at how many heads Osial has, and how many heads it has.

Especially in the original storyline, Shenhe, when enraged, could defeat Báche. Although Shenhe is indeed incredibly strong, there are not only Shenhe here, but also several immortals.

I can't beat Osial, but can't I beat Osial's wife?

"No need, it's too much trouble," Chen Luo said, reaching out to stop her.

"There are always creatures on land that dare to face the might of thunder. That's fine. But... those in the sea are different."

Because seawater conducts electricity.

"Have you all heard of the Immortal Blade?" Chen Luo said, gently pulling with his right hand, and a magnificent purple longsword was drawn from the void.

Seven Thunders of Judgment - Thunderous Appearance

One of the forms of the Seven Thunders of Judgment.

Ahem, actually Chen Luo really wanted to demonstrate drawing a sword from his chest, but it's a little strange for a guy to do that, so he just used Void Archive to conjure a sword.

It cost Chen Luo 0.1 Honkai Crystal.

It costs little, right? But it only lasts for one minute.

That's right, it takes about a minute to make one cut, after which the blade shatters.

However, Chen Luo only needs one strike.

"Immortal Blade?" Upon hearing this title, everyone except Ying and Paimon was slightly taken aback.

After all, apart from Ying, the Traveler, how could anyone else not know about the famous slash of the Raiden Shogun on the other side of the sea?

After all, besides the immortals who participated in the Archon War 2,000 years ago, the people in this Jade Chamber are the knowledgeable Liyue Qixing and the secretary.

Not long ago, Inazuma was not yet closed off from the country.

Holding the Seven Thunders of Judgment in the shape of a sword, Chen Luo slowly walked to the very edge of the Jade Chamber.

"Tai Xu..." Chen Luo pointed the Third Divine Key in his hand straight to the sky.

The Third Divine Key is powerful enough on its own; in its sniper Third Divine Key form, it can even turn a person into atoms with a single shot. So, what kind of might would it display if the Third Herrscher were to be paired with the Third Divine Key?

"... Sword God!" Chen Luo gently slashed at Báche, who was rushing towards Osial.

It seems powerless, yet it's attacking empty space, which is truly laughable.

But the next moment, a sword aura formed from terrifying lightning crashed down, tearing a Tai Xu Sword God gash in the entire sea with the Herrscher Authority.

After making that cut, Chen Luo sat back down in his chair and started playing the erhu again, without even watching the result.

"Goodness, using the Seven Thunders of Judgment Katana of Purification to wield the Authority of the Herrscher of Thunder and unleash the Tai Xu Sword God, you've really mastered the Tai Xu Sword Qi."

The Herrscher of Knowledge, sitting on Chen Luo's shoulder in a posture unnoticed by anyone else, exclaimed in shock.

There are just too many elements; Herrscher of Knowledge doesn't even know where to begin complaining.

"As long as it works, why worry about so much?" Chen Luo said while playing the erhu.

"Um... Chen Luo, are you sure you don't need to look back? You seem to have missed." Ying whispered a reminder as she peeked out from the edge of the Jade Chamber.

Looking outwards, one can see that Chen Luo's Tai Xu Sword God technique Herrscher Authority of Thunder, is indeed terrifying. It directly cuts a huge, bottomless chasm in the sea, and seawater is currently rushing back into the chasm.

However... Báche, being positioned at the edge of the chasm, escaped most of the sword's force, thus suffering only severe injuries rather than dying. After glaring fiercely at Jade Chamber, he fled in the opposite direction.

Osial will only be suppressed, because that's what was done a thousand years ago, so go and continue to accumulate power.

With these feelings in Báche fled into the distance...

"I did it on purpose," Chen Luo said.

Why?

"If I kill her, will you deal with her Archon Residue?" Chen Luo asked.

"Uh..." Ying looked around immediately.

The Archon Residue —that sounds like something out of a good deal.

Chapter 371 Have you ever witnessed the brilliance of a star as it perishes? Heavenly Fire—Unsheathed!

"Speaking of which, since your strike was so powerful, why didn't you just kill Osial with that one strike?" Ying asked, sitting on a small stool, cracking sunflower seeds given to her by Chen Luo, and watching Infinite Serpent fight Osial.

I'm really tired after watching this epic battle of gods for over 20 minutes.

"That's enough." Chen Luo suddenly looked up and put the erhu into his backpack.

"Hmm? What's okay?" Ying immediately became interested.

"The barrier is complete, we can unleash our ultimate move now," Chen Luo said, looking at the huge circular dome woven from silk threads that only he could see.

"Ultimate move? What ultimate move? Are they going to show off that Immortal Blade again?"

"Ahem, actually that wasn't Immortal Blade, it was called the Tai Xu Sword God." Chen Luo corrected Ying Zhen after she believed his earlier nonsense.

"The Tai Xu Sword God? Sounds inferior to Immortal Blade..."

"When you can withstand Immortal Blade, come find me, and I'll give you a full-power Tai Xu Sword God demonstration. I'll show you whether the Tai Xu Sword God is more powerful or Immortal Blade is more powerful." Chen Luo said coldly after glancing at Ying.

"Um, well... maybe we don't need to?"

"Ha, woman." Chen Luo sneered as he looked at the timid Ying.

"Alas, what a pity, the remains of that Osial, the Vortex Archon." After the cold laugh came a sigh.

"What's the meaning?"

"To deal with such a large, highly regenerative creature, we would need to use weapons of mass destruction. But after using those weapons, whether or not the creature's body will survive, and how much of it will remain, is another matter entirely."

"Oh." Ying nodded.

Ying did indeed see the Infinite Serpent seemingly devouring Osial's body.

"Fortunately, I'm almost tired of eating Infinite Serpent. And maybe I'll leave something behind later."
