Chapter 1092: Last Refuge

Seeing this scene, Lin Li knew he couldn’t let Asgor continue to attack by changing its soul. Even if he could persist on with his incredible mental strength, Connoris and the two Undead servants would be in big trouble. Hence, as soon as the dizziness in his head dissipated, he immediately pointed the Helios’ Scepter forward, and a burning hot cloud of fire shrouded Asgor’s head.

It wasn’t that Lin Li didn’t want to use the World Sword to kill Asgor, but rather that it was difficult for him to concentrate on casting the World Sword under the impact of Asgor’s Mental Blast. In fact, if another mage was in Lin Li’s place, he probably would not be able to even cast a small fireball.

While Lin Li launched a counterattack on Asgor, Connoris had finally recovered from the Mental Blast launched by it. After all, Connoris was an ancient deity whose soul would never die. Hence, the attack did not take much of a toll on him. As soon as he regained control of his body, he waved the Eternal Frost Blade in his hand, and immediately attacked right after Lin Li did.

Connoris was once the oldest ancient demon deity, so his understanding and knowledge of magical beasts like Asgor was not based on the unverifiable legends and myths. In fact, he was also considered a mythical figure. Hence, Connoris did not just hear about Asgor’s powerful abilities from myths. Instead, he had a far more genuine understanding of it.

Even when he was an ancient demon deity back in the day, Connoris would avoid provoking a monster like Asgor, let alone now where he hadn’t even reached the Sanctuary-realm, and his body and soul hadn’t fused perfectly yet. It was the time for him to be restrained by Asgor’s ability.

At this juncture, Connoris had already cursed Geresco to no end in his head. Asgor had already vanished from Anril during the early prehistoric times, so where did that psychopath Geresco get it from!? Besides, the Asgor in front of him had lived for thousands of years in this world where mana was several times more intense than in the outside world. There was clearly some victorious aura coming from it. With such strength, Asgor would definitely be an elite and powerful existence even in the prehistoric times as the ancient wyrms and Titans would probably have to avoid it.

Hence, Connoris dared not belittle Asgor at all. As soon as he recovered from the impact of the Mental Blast, he immediately followed Lin Li and launched a full attack on Asgor. At this juncture, he dared not hold back. While using the Eternal Frost Blade to swing out rays of light, he chanted an ancient demonic incantation.

The ancient demon deity’s incantation was the most primitive one that involved the essence of power, and could even be considered one of the origins of the current types of magic. As Connoris chanted the incantation, the magical elements in that space suddenly went berserk, and formed a formidable storm. Even the entire canyon seemed to be shaking like an earthquake as debris rolled down continuously from both sides, as if the canyon might collapse at any time.

The burning hot cloud of fire that Lin Li had conjured caused the surrounding rocks to turn red before shrouding Asgor’s head. Almost at the same time, Connoris consecutively swung out several 10-meter-tall silver slashes. The intense magical elements converged above Asgor’s head, and an incredibly powerful ancient magic spell was also brewing, ready to strike Asgor with the most powerful blow.

On the other hand, Lin Li’s Undead servants, Ujfalusi and Norfeller, had yet to recover from the Mental Blast launched by Asgor. Although both of them already had power that was close to the Sanctuary-realm, they still could not start the transition between life and death as long as they hadn’t stepped into the Sanctuary-realm yet. No matter how strong they might be, they were still Undead creatures.

Asgor’s affinity spell, or rather Necromagic spell, was not purely a death magic spell. In legends and myths, Necromagic was a talent that the God of Death had bestowed to him. It was the power that would guide all living beings to their final destiny. Undead creatures that violated the law of life and death would not be tolerated even by the God of Death. Hence, the restraint that Necromagic had on Undead creatures was far more powerful than Holy Light’s.

In particular, Ujfalusi’s soul fire was almost extinguished during the Mental Blast, and in fact, he was in a far more dangerous state than he would be in the face of a Holy Sanction. Although Norfeller was stronger than Ujfalusi, and even had the bloodline of the powerful Iceblast Wyrm, Asgor’s attack was too intense. Fortunately, Lin Li and Connoris’ attack had slowed Asgor down a little. Otherwise, the soul fire of the two Undead servants would have been permanently damaged even if they hadn’t been destroyed.

Facing the cloud of fire that was coming from above their heads and the space slash that would be enough to slice him in half, Asgor slowed down, but there was a clear trace of contempt in its horrifying huge eyes. Immediately afterwards, a stream of silver light darted out from Asgor’s eyes, and the sounds of tens of millions of souls wailing surged out like a tidal wave, causing the space in front of it to distort violently.

After casting the cloud of fire, Lin Li, who was preparing to cast the next magic spell, immediately felt as if a sharp sword had violently pierced his head. The sharp pain immediately caused his preparations for casting a spell to go down the drain. At the same time, the cloud of fire that he’d cast also immediately lost spiritual contact with him. It dissipated before it reached Asgor.

As Connoris’s space slash was forced to move in another direction in that distorted space, it flew past Asgor and surged straight into the shadow of the deep valley behind. Although Asgor’s affinity spell did not have control over Space Power, it could affect the fluctuations in the space through the powerful Spiritual Force. It was just like how an earthquake at the bottom of the sea would cause a tsunami.

However, at this point, Connoris’ demon deity incantation finally reached its climax, and the berserk magical elements in the air were all riled up. A large eye opened above Asgor’s head. It was much larger than the Evil Eye Tyrant that Lin Li had seen in the past, and countless black lightning bolts constantly bounced around the eyeball.

It was known as the Eye of the Ancient Demon, which was said to be the origin of the birth of the ancient demon deities. Legend had it that when Anril was born, light and darkness separated from the power of Chaos. Light turned into the sun in the sky, while the darkness turned into the Eye of the Ancient Demon. 81 ancient demon deities were born from the Eye of the Ancient Demon, controlling all the power of darkness in Anril.

However, legend had it that the five Dragon Aspects had joined forces to smash the Eye of the Ancient Demon after they rose to the position of deities. On the other hand, Azardas, the patriarch of Obsidian Wyrms, obtained the power of the Eye of the Ancient Demon, and became the Dragon of Destruction that mastered the power of Destruction and Darkness. The destruction of the Eye of the Ancient Demon was the reason that the 81 ancient demon deities could use the power of the Eye of the Ancient Demon to create the Endless Abyss.

Hence, the thing that Connoris cast this time was only an illusion of the Eye of the Ancient Demon that was created using his mastery of the power of the Abyss. However, even if it was just an illusion, the power of the Eye of the Ancient Demon was definitely not to be taken lightly. Ordinary Sanctuary powerhouses would be severely wounded by it if they weren’t even killed.

In fact, even Lin Li didn’t expect Connoris to pull such a move, which was one that he hadn’t seen before, even when they were in dangerous situations. Even when exploring the Sky Castle previously where they had been forced into a desperate situation by Highlord Osric, Connoris had never used that magic spell.

The huge eyeball revolved slowly in the sky, and a cold and violent aura descended into the deep valley, after which Asgor’s figure gradually appeared. Immediately afterwards, the huge eyeball shook slightly, and a black ray of light which was intertwined with immeasurable black lightning penetrated the space and landed on Asgor’s head.

Asgor obviously felt threatened by the black light, and couldn’t help but get into a stance where it was ready to fight. It was not that Asgor didn’t know to dodge, but rather that it was much more intelligent than ordinary magical beasts, and thus was well aware that dodging would be pointless when facing Connoris’ strike.

If it were other magical beasts, they might flee as far as possible upon sensing the threat contained in the black light. After all, they knew to avoid danger. However, Asgor knew very well that once it chose to dodge, it would lose its opportunity.

Hence, when facing the black light that was blasted down, Asgor not only did not dodge, but also raised its lion-like head high. Immediately afterwards, its body was instantly coated with a layer of silver light, and thick black mist emerged from the space around its body at the same time. The aura of the God of Death immediately rose to the extreme too.

“Howl!”

Asgor let out a roar at the falling black light, which seemed to be able to break the sky. It even penetrated the souls of Lin Li and the others.

Amidst the shock of the roar, Lin Li wanted to take the opportunity to cast the World Sword, but the mental strength was dispersed as soon as it was condensed. Connoris’ body stiffened too, and he clearly had already temporarily lost control of his body. Ujfalusi and Norfeller apparently had it worse. They originally planned to rush up to join the attack, but they retreated after being shocked by Asgor’s roar that penetrated their souls.

Boom! With a loud sound, the black light from the Eye of the Ancient Demon finally blasted at Asgor. However, as soon as they came into contact, the silver light emanating from Asgor’s body instantly formed countless tiny runes which were as small as particles, and one would not be able to see them without mental strength strong enough. The runes converged into a faint silver mist, enveloping Asgor’s body and giving this hideous monster some sacred vibe.

Although Necromagic and Death Magic were rather similar, it wasn’t strange for there to be a holy aura, since Asgor was called the pet of the God of Death. However, the Eye of the Ancient Demon that Connoris cast was full of a cold and evil aura, which made it obvious that it was evil.

The clash of the two forces made the entire valley seem like it was about to be overturned as the aftershocks of the collision caused the cliffs on the sides to be on the verge of collapsing. Even the area around Asgor was shaken to the point where dirt and rocks were splattered all over. A ring-shaped ditch was formed too. Only the area under Asgor’s feet was intact, and it looked like a small island.

However, the power of the Eye of the Ancient Demon did not end there. The black light seemed to land on Asgor’s body endlessly, as if it wouldn’t stop until the silver light on its body was torn apart. Under that powerful pressure, the ground under Asgor’s feet also began cracking, and the cracks even started spreading rapidly from the top to the bottom. It was as if the island in the ditch was about to be crushed into dust.

However, at that moment, a huge black vortex appeared under Asgor’s feet, and a massive yet pure power of death surged out of the black vortex. Immediately afterwards, there was a loud bang, and Asgor’s body suddenly vanished. The black light that was emitted by the Eye of the Ancient Demon immediately darted into the black vortex.

The black vortex, which was like a bottomless pit, devoured a massive amount of black light that surged in. At the same time, the power of death that came from it also spread rapidly along the black light towards the Eye of the Ancient Demon. Everyone present clearly felt that the power of the Eye of the Ancient Demon was rapidly weakening under the erosion of the power of death.

“The last refuge!” Seeing this, Connoris, who had just regained control of his body again, couldn’t help but exclaim. The so-called last refuge was one of the most frightening affinity spells of Asgor, and had terrifying power that would move everything into the netherworld. Even the ancient wyrms would not be able to resist.

However, Lin Li did not care about that issue. When he saw that Asgor’s figure had suddenly disappeared, he immediately bore with the intense headache and spread his mental strength out, shrouding the entire space to look for Asgor’s traces.

All of a sudden, Lin Li waved his hand, and the seven pieces of the debris of the stars darted out from the Domain World. The seven types of light converged into a dazzling pillar of light that blasted at Norfeller and Ujfalusi.

However, none of them were fools, and no one would suspect that Lin Li was going to make a move on the two Undead servants. Ujfalusi and Norfeller did not seem surprised at all. Their soul connection with Lin Li allowed them to be aware of Lin Li’s true intentions immediately.
