"Call out!"
The illusory black sword shadow unleashed by Liermons shot directly toward Fafnir.
"Ah!" Knowing he was weaker than his opponent, Fafnir had no choice but to tough it out, using all his strength to create a transparent flame to meet the illusory sword shadow!
The moment the transparent flame was born, it collided directly with the illusory sword shadow.
"Boom!"
In the silent impact, the transparent flame was actually pierced straight through by the illusory sword shadow, and the transparent flame itself shattered completely.
"It's over!" Fafnir's face turned pale and powerless instantly. His Soul Attack was broken, but Liermons's illusory sword shadow was still charging towards him relentlessly!
The illusory sword shadow pierced directly into Fafnir's brow with unstoppable force. Fafnir's crimson eyes immediately lost focus, and he was momentarily dazed.
At this moment, a tremendous storm has been unleashed in the Soul Ocean!
A clash of souls is the most dangerous!
Whether or not he ultimately survives this Soul Attack, at least for the time being, he stood frozen in place like a wooden puppet, revealing a fatal flaw!
How could Liermons miss such a golden opportunity?
"Send you on your way!" Taking advantage of the opportunity, Liermons slashed out with his Black Longsword again. This time it was a terrifying physical attack. The sword tore through the sky as it was drawn, and when it landed on Fafnir, it caused Fafnir to explode!
A fierce battle has finally come to an end.
In this battle, Fafnir, the Prefect of Eternal Night, was defeated and killed!
Below, the entire Ember Mountains was silent; no one uttered a sound, and everyone stared in shock at the red-haired youth, Liermons, in the air.
After a moment of silence, the crowd erupted into a clamor, with voices clamoring among them.
"Too strong, too terrifying."
"Yes! Who would have thought that Lord Liermons, who was supposed to be doomed, would actually turn the tide in such a desperate situation!"
"A new Prefect of Eternal Night has been born..."
"Hey, you're called Long'erke, right? Aren't you going to announce the results of the battle?" At this moment, Liermons stood alone high in the sky, smiling faintly as he looked at the red-haired old man from before.
"Yes! Yes! I hereby announce it, Lord Liermons!" The red-haired elder Long'erke, seemed to wake from a dream, instantly reacting and hurriedly announcing loudly, "Lord Liermons has won this challenge! From today onwards, Lord Liermons is the new Prefect of Eternal Night!"
The high-pitched voice instantly resounded throughout the entire Ember Mountains.
" Liermons!" someone immediately cheered.
" Liermons!" The cheers seemed contagious, rising and falling in waves from the crowd below. They all knew—
Another miracle has been born!
Defeat the previous Prefect of Eternal Night!
Liermons!
A new Prefect of Eternal Night has been born!
Looking down at the scene of countless people cheering below, Liermons couldn't help but feel a sense of déjà vu.
I vaguely remember--
When I first entered Infernal Realm, I hid in that Broken Horn Tribe to cultivate.
Going to participate in the Fiend Trial was terrifying.
Battle after battle, challenge after challenge!
Now, he has finally achieved the goal he once had in his heart --
Challenge the Asura!
Become one of the 108 Asura in the Infernal Realm!
Today is destined to be a day that everyone in the Eternal Night Prefecture will remember, because the position of prefecture lord, which has remained unchanged for countless years, has finally changed hands once again!
"This man, Liermons, is indeed a valiant fellow." Even Luo Ao held him in high esteem.
Knowing full well that they are no match for their opponents, they still dare to risk their lives to challenge powerful enemies, all in pursuit of the potential to be unleashed in the moment of life and death!
Everyone only saw Liermons's current glory, but no one thought that if he hadn't succeeded in breaking through today, he would have been the one to die!
This is a huge gamble!
Fortunately, Liermons won his gamble.
" Luo Ao, this is Liermons. He actually defeated the Prefect of Eternal Night. Won't he come to challenge you next?" Echidna only knew that Luo Ao was exceptionally strong, but she didn't know the exact upper limit of Luo Ao's strength, so she was naturally very worried.
"His purpose in challenging powerful enemies was probably just to pursue a breakthrough. Now that he has successfully broken through, he may not come looking for me again." Luo Ao could tell that although Liermons seemed aggressive, he was not reckless.
Whether you want to challenge the Prefect of Eternal Night or challenge him, you've essentially chosen a fire-type powerhouse.
Clearly, he deliberately chose his opponents in this way to unleash his own potential.
Luo Ao's guess was correct; Liermons had indeed specifically chosen the Prefect of Eternal Night as his opponent, which was related to his cultivation path. However, he was wrong about one thing: Liermons was indeed a born battle maniac, and he had never withdrawn a challenge he had issued.
After returning from the Ember Mountains, Echidna noticed that Luo Ao seemed rather absent-minded, lost in thought.
" Luo Ao, what are you thinking about?" Echidna couldn't help but ask, her curiosity piqued.
"I was thinking, if everything had gone smoothly, my path to the fusion of the profound mysteries of ' Profound Mysteries ' might have even surpassed that of ' Fire Body Technique '." Having personally witnessed that earth-shattering battle, Luo Ao naturally benefited greatly.
These two, Fafnir's strongest material attack technique, undoubtedly perfectly fused the profound Profound Mysteries of 'explosion'. However, what impressed Luo Ao even more was the punch that Liermons suddenly threw after breaking through!
That punch was an instinctive outburst from Liermons immediately after his breakthrough, but it best showcased the profound and essential nature of ' Profound Mysteries '.
" Echidna, I plan to stay in Eternal Night City to cultivate for a while." Inspiration struck, and naturally, it couldn't be put aside.
Before this, he had already fused the Profound Mysteries of ' Fire Body Technique ' and 'Explosion' with the other three Profound Mysteries, and now he was only one step away from mastering them.
He originally thought that the ' Fire Body Technique,' which was relatively easier to break through, would be the first to be successfully fused. However, the previous battle scene did indeed greatly help him fuse the Profound Mysteries of 'Explosion.'
Back in the courtyard of his residence within the Eternal Night Prefecture, Luo Ao closed his eyes and once again entered a deep state of cultivation.
"There Liermons ' punch..."
Luo Ao kept recalling the earth-shattering punch that Liermons had unleashed after his breakthrough.
That kind of punch that instantly gathers all power and then unleashes its full force almost simultaneously!
The moment that punch was thrown, the space shattered inch by inch, leaving absolutely no room for build-up or buffer!
Luo Ao hadn't found a suitable approach to explore the fusion path of the Profound Mysteries mysteries of 'Explosion', but through Liermons ' punch, the violent intent that instantly shattered space, Luo Ao suddenly had many ideas...
Although Luo Ao's attack that killed the Wisteria Fiend seemed incredibly powerful, he knew it was only enhanced by the Willpower. In terms of the actual power of the move, it was far inferior to Liermons ' punch.
Luo Ao kept speculating, and in his mind, a fiery figure repeatedly threw punches, the trajectory of virtual divine power distorting, attempting to simulate the artistic conception unleashed by Liermons ' punch.
