Chapter 645: Deathgod, Cai’er (III) (2/2)

The white light in her vanished as she seemed to become entirely transparent, like a pure white sculpture. The Sickle of the God of Death pointed to the front and Cai'er's body slid forward quietly, before rushing to the ball of light of combined light and darkness.

A bizarre white light extended from her Sickle of the God of Death in the shape of a thread which nimbly encircled that ball of light.

Shockingly, that white thread slowly cut through the midst of that ball of light combining light and darkness, stripping all the spiritual energy contained inside.

The mixture of light and darkness came to a stop, and the soulfires in the skeletons’ eyes pulsed once again, taking the same action of launching another attack.

That domain combination was originally their most powerful attack. If not for the fear that Cai’er had aroused in them with the powerful purifying force of Death in Childhood, destroying the barrier between light and darkness, they would not be so harsh as to show this move.

But Cai’er’s second attack shocked them once again. Those somewhat thin white threads were even more frightening than the previous instance of Death in Childhood, as that was a purifying force no element had a chance to resist.

Combining light and darkness is easier said than done! An extraordinary balance needed to be achieved, so that they would neither counteract nor swallow each other. This was something extremely hard to control, and needed all the elemental forces composing it to reach a state of solidity.

When pierced by those white threads, how could this state of balance be maintained? The portions colored golden and purplish-black instantly showed traces of instability, looking about to burst.

The two skeletons guarding these floors were without doubt the number one and number two of the twelve holy guards. As the most powerful beings out of all the holy guards, they were the left and right arms of the Slumbering Calamity Elux. Their mastery of light and darkness had already reached the peak level.

Seeing the ball of light about to burst, the two powerhouses simultaneously made the same move.

The first holy guard, the holy warrior, swept his heavy sword in a circular motion, tracing a circle, and the second holy guard made the same motion with his staff.

Due to the ravaging white threads, the ball of light took only an instant to be routed, with light essence and darkness essence gushing out from the two sides at once, rapidly melting toward the light warrior and darkness mage. All the golden and black essence in the air returned to their respective directions.

Upon seeing this scene, the mage of this group, Lin Xin, shivered unconsciously.

This was absolutely not doable with just 200,000 spiritual energy. A mage able to transfer his or her thoughts to forcefully call back his elemental magic, what level of control was that? These two holy guards not only had an ultra-high control over magic power, but also a flawless grasp of their own domain.

This level of strength was just too terrifying. Their spiritual energy ought to have attained at least 300,000. Even with lacking equipment, they were strong enough to match some demon gods in the top thirty-sixth ranks making full use of their Demon God Transformation.

And Cai’er was facing off against two such powerhouses by herself: what a pressure! Even if Long Haochen was resurrected, he might not even necessarily win such a match.

However, the previous courses of action confirmed some of Lin Xin’s thoughts. These first and second holy guards were indeed unwilling to let their spiritual energy collide. The rupture of the state of fusion would cause light and darkness to corrode each other, and therefore greatly affect their ability. Lin Xin’s only point of curiosity was: how could these light and darkness users show such a high level of mutual understanding? Powerhouses of the light and darkness elements should normally be mutually repulsed by each other.

Light and darkness rapidly retracted in the same direction, causing an eye-catching scene to follow in the sixth floor of the Tower of Eternity.

However, the two great holy guards clearly hadn’t such an easy time of regaining their own domains by these means. They had to sustain considerable backlashes from their domains.

Two groans were heard at the same time. Drawing back, the fluctuations of spiritual energy they released became very frantic.

Facing two such great powerhouses wielding light and darkness combinatorial magic, Cai’er not only did not suffer loss, but even had the advantage. If this was not happening right before their eyes, who would dare believe that?

Cai’er had her eyes shut, the glow in them disappeared at once.

Second of the Seven Arts of the God of Death, Death in Cleansing.

All the white surrounding Cai’er, including the white filling her eyes, stemmed from the God of Death’s purifying power.

Cai’er’s God’s Descent was already in use from the start of the third floor, in the shape of that shadow of death.

In another place, Cai’er could only deploy her deathgod’s descent for five minutes at most, but this Tower of Eternity was not the same.

Cai’er had gained some understanding as early as the first time she followed Long Haochen there. This comprehension stemmed from the death energy inside the Tower of Eternity.

The Tower of Eternity was the strongest divine tool of the Holy Necromancer, Slumbering Calamity Elux, absorbing souls to raise its power. So who could imagine how much death energy came out from it?

And what’s the God of Death? That’s the divinity in control of death itself! Not a deathbringer, but a death purifier. Through the cleansing of death, he could turn all the death energy into his own power. That’s the power of the God of Death.
