The Helpers Arrive
Even if you can't win, you have to grit your teeth and fight. You can't just stand by and watch Darius get humiliated. 💘☜ 🐨🐤
As night fell and the sky twinkled with stars, the Aspect Power was at its strongest.
I tried my best to overcome my fear and charged forward with my Hextech Gun.
It's a pity Ornn didn't finish forging the Gale Sword, otherwise I would still have a chance of winning.
I am increasingly convinced that there is no distinction between strong and weak in strength. Now that I have reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship, I am ready to fight!
The Void Lord appeared very quickly; I barely noticed him appearing before he did. However, he didn't bother to dodge my challenge and simply retaliated with various Void skills.
His attack methods are very diverse, including both invisible energy forms and various physical attacks, such as tentacles, spikes, and slime.
He knows every attack method I've ever encountered before, which vividly explains why the Void Creatures call him Father.
As the battle deepened, my body gradually relaxed, and my swordsmanship took on a free and flowing quality, which was my Peak Path.
At this moment, the Void Lord realized my power, relinquished control of Darius, and a purple blade appeared in his hand:
"You are a person with extraordinary skill in swordsmanship, and you deserve my swordsmanship in return."
I didn't respond to him, but just told Darius to leave quickly. Although I could still put up a fight for the time being, I didn't know when he might kill me instantly.
"Hurry and find some help, let's ride the Hextech Motorcycle!"
"Hold on, brother!" Darius hopped on his motorcycle and sped off.
Now it's just me and the Void Lord left. I haven't made a move, and neither has he. I really wish we could stand there like this all night, but that's impossible.
I lunged forward again, delivering swift and steady sword strikes, and he actually countered with the same swordsmanship!
Does he not only possess all the skills of the Void Creatures, but can he also imitate human Martial Arts?
No, this is no longer imitation, because he is even more powerful than me!
After struggling for more than ten minutes, I could no longer withstand his onslaught. The Hextech Gun was no match for the Void Blade; if I hadn't deliberately avoided contact with the weapon, it would probably have broken by now.
We can't wait for reinforcements in such a short time; we must find a way to stall for a little longer.
But then I thought, I'm all alone here. I have no stronghold to defend and no one to protect me, so why should I get entangled in a fight? Wouldn't it be better to just find an opportunity to escape?
I have now mastered the Aspect Body, which allows me to instantly teleport to distant places.
Having made up my mind, I suddenly jumped into the air; it would only take a few seconds to escape!
However, I underestimated the speed of the Void Lord. Almost at the same time I flew into the air, he transformed into Evil Eyes and locked me firmly with his powerful aura!
"None of your ideas can be realized with me; all you can do is submit."
"Don't be so arrogant, you can't kill me in a short time!"
"I never intended to kill you, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to leave the Howling Abyss."
"Don't act so high and mighty. People like you usually fail in the end!"
"Failure? I've never thought about that question."
"Then you'd better think about it!"
Since escape is impossible, let's just go for broke!
I stopped thinking about anything else and pushed the Wind Force and Aspect Power to the limit my body could withstand, preparing for a desperate fight!
As I expected, while the Void Lord's control abilities are strong, his damage output is insufficient, or rather, I am a divine being and not so easily destroyed.
I persevered at the cost of my physical health, but the Void Lord continued his slow and deliberate attacks, as if he were toying with me.
Another ten minutes or so passed, and just when I was about to give up, support finally arrived!
Leona and Diana arrived together, followed by the Rock Dragon Strucker and the Wood Dragon Sean.
The Sun and Moon Power are originally mutually exclusive, but their effects on the same person are quite different!
The scorching sunlight and the cold moonlight shone directly on the Void Lord, dyeing him gold and silver like a coloring agent.
Strucker clapped his fists together and instantly charged in front of the Void Lord, launching a fierce attack. The house-sized stone in his hands was like air.
Sean didn't rush to attack. He first helped ease my injuries, and then created a large forest around us, filling the place with life.
Of course, our reinforcements were far more than just those four. Soon after, Zoe arrived in person with her own people, followed by the Empowerment Aspect, the Lighthouse Aspect, and the Maze Aspect.
Instead of attacking directly, the Aspects set up Magic Circle around the area.
Although I've never seen this kind of magic circle before, I can guess that it was the Twilight Aspect used to seal the Vastaya!
The magic circle emitted a silvery-white light in the night, as beautiful as stars falling to earth. Soon, the light on it began to flicker, and Zoe shouted:
"Leona, Diana, channel your power into the magic circle!"
"Good!"
The two responded in unison, pouring Solar Energy and Lunar Energy into the array respectively. Instantly, the array shone brightly, engulfing the Void Lord!
Despite the impressive scale of the operation, everyone's expressions were serious, because we knew that the Void Lord wouldn't be sealed away so easily; we were merely hoping to weaken his power.
As the light gradually faded, I was surprised to find that the Void Lord had truly vanished, leaving only the Sealing Vessel —his Void Blade —in the magic circle!
"Did it work?" Sean asked.
"I don't know, I don't think it's that easy." Zoe also didn't quite believe what she was seeing.
At this moment, the Void Blade spoke up, "Aspects sealing technique? That's powerful enough, managing to trap me inside a weapon."
Now there's no doubt that the Void Lord has indeed been sealed away!
Just to be on the safe side, the Maze Aspect decided to set up another layer of Maze Array, so that even if the Void Lord could break the seal, he would get lost in the array.
The group got busy again, and it seemed they had already practiced, as they were now very skilled.
But just as the Maze Array was completed, all their efforts were in vain.
Because the Void Lord appeared before us unharmed, still holding the Void Blade in his hand:
"Whether it's a seal or a maze, they can only trap a confused mind. Do you want to give them a try?"
After the Void Lord finished speaking, he raised his hands, and the starlight on the magic circle was replaced by Void Matter. He wanted to seal us away!
"Oh no, get out of here right now!"
Zoe yelled, and we immediately moved away from the magic circle, but we could escape the seal but not the maze; everyone was trapped inside!
