Burning Armor with Life! Himeko Sacrifices All Life, Unlocking the Ultimate God-Slaying Form

"["Against the Herrscher?"] Himeko pressed.

"Yes, wear it, and you will gain the power to stand against Sirin head-on."

For the first time, Fu Hua's voice carried a barely perceptible hint of admonition.

"But, Himeko, the price of this power... is your entire life."

"!"

Throughout the entire Douluo World, everyone who witnessed this scene felt as if their hearts were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand.

All... life?

This is not about burning off a portion of one's Life Force, nor is it about shortening one's lifespan.

Rather... it's the key to mutual destruction.

It's a one-way ticket with no return.

"No..." Tang Ya murmured to herself, her face turning deathly pale.

She remembered the days when she was controlled by the Evil Soul Master and lost her mind, and she remembered everything that Bei Bei had done to awaken her.

She understood all too well the determination to give one's life to save someone.

Niu Tian and Tai Tan, two towering men, remained silent, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

They remembered Tang San's mother, Ah Yin, who had sacrificed herself.

I was reminded of Xiao Wu's sacrifice.

History often repeats itself in surprising ways.

But this time, the sacrifice was not Soul Beast, but a living person, a teacher who was willing to die to save his students.

Dai Hao's body jolted violently.

He looked at the red-haired woman in the picture and thought of his wife.

His wife also paid a heavy price for him and for the family.

At this moment, the iron-blooded White Tiger Duke felt a warmth welling up in his eyes.

Xue Ye let out a long sigh. In that instant, the Emperor's thoughts turned to the survival of his empire.

If the Heaven Dou Empire possessed such a guardian willing to sacrifice himself, and such a "Godslayer Armor," what would it have to fear from the Spirit Hall?

But then he laughed self-deprecatingly.

Such awareness and such sacrifice cannot be bought with power and profit.

Within the Light Screen.

Himeko fell silent.

She lowered her head, her long, crimson hair hanging down, obscuring her expression.

The entire hangar was deathly silent.

Only the armor called "True Crimson Eclipse" still emitted an ominous red light, like a devil tempting people to fall into the Abyss.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Time seemed to stretch out Infinity.

Everyone's hearts were in their throats.

Don't wear it!

Run!

Countless people are shouting in their hearts.

They did not want to see such a vibrant life meet its inevitable end.

However, Himeko slowly raised her head.

There was no fear or hesitation on her face.

There was only one kind of... unprecedented tenderness and decisiveness.

In her mind, Kiana's willful yet energetic face appeared.

The image of that silly girl dozing off in class came to mind.

The image of her calling out "Himeko" comes to mind, a mixture of anger and amusement in her expression.

"Fu Hua, thank you."

She said softly.

"To fight for all that is good in the world, that's what you taught me."

"Now, it's my turn."

"Go and teach this final lesson to my most cherished student."

The words had barely left his mouth.

She resolutely walked towards the crimson armor.

"No!" Ning Rongrong couldn't help but cry out, tears welling up instantly.

As Support System Soul Master, she understands better than anyone the preciousness of "life".

She couldn't accept that someone would so easily... use their own life as fuel.

Ning Tian helped his sister up, his own eyes reddening.

Gu Yuena gently grasped Tang Wulin's hand; her fingertips were icy cold.

Looking at Himeko in the picture, she felt as if she were seeing herself from another time and space.

She was willing to give everything for him.

This feeling called "love" is essentially the same, whether it's directed towards lovers, family members, or students.

It is a great power that can transcend life and death.

["Himeko! You..."] Fu Hua's consciousness began to flicker violently, and for the first time, her usually cold voice carried a hint of urgency.

But it was too late.

Himeko was already standing at the interface of the armor.

"Snap."

The robotic arm unfolded, and pieces of crimson armor began to fuse with her body.

The cold metal pressed against the warm skin.

In that instant, Himeko's body trembled violently, and her face showed an expression of extreme pain.

It felt as if countless red-hot steel needles were piercing every inch of her flesh and every nerve.

That was the excruciating pain of having Life Force madly drained away!

"Ah--!"

An uncontrollable cry of pain escaped her throat.

"What is she going through?" Xiao Xiao's voice trembled.

"The loss of Life Force... has been materialized into pain." Tang San spoke slowly, his voice hoarse, "This armor, from the moment it was put on, has been devouring her life."

Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Eye flashed with intense emotion.

He could almost feel the pain of his soul being torn apart through the Light Screen.

He recalled the feeling when he fused with Million-Year Soul Ring, but the scene before him seemed even more... cruel.

Because it is a conscious, proactive act of dedicating everything to a cold machine.

Within the Light Screen, armor plates closed one after another.

Shoulder armor, breastplate, arm armor, leg armor...

A torrent of crimson metal completely enveloped the resolute woman.

As the final mask slowly closed, concealing her eyes that burned with their last glimmer of light...

"Buzz--!"

An indescribable, terrifying energy erupted from the armor!

The entire secret hangar was shaking violently.

Crimson energy particles swept out like a storm.

That was no longer just Honkai Energy, but... the final flame that contained Himeko's entire life and will!

Godslayer Armor: True Crimson Eclipse, fully activated!

"Such... such powerful strength..." Even the God of Death, A'Dai (Mandun), felt a tremor in his soul.

He had never seen such pure, such intense... death energy.

Hai Long, Tian Hen, Ye Yinzhu, Zi...

All the powerful figures who once stood at the pinnacle of their respective worlds were now completely silent.

They were utterly awestruck by this power and this awareness.

The Dragon God's golden pupils reflected the soaring crimson flame.

Even he had to admit it.

At this moment, the radiance emanating from this human named Himeko was comparable to that of Gods.

Within the Light Screen, Himeko, completely covered in armor, did not linger for even a moment.

The thrusters on its back spewed out devastating Light Flame.

"Boom--!!!"

She transformed into a crimson meteor that tore through the Sky Vault, breaking through the hangar's Dome and hurtling towards the sky shrouded in Honkai.

Towards the final battlefield of her life.

The image on the Light Screen finally froze.

That crimson trail left an indelible scar in the gray sky.

The Light Screen shifted, and the image became clear again.
