Chapter 11 The Heart of the Tree of Life
There was no time to think about other things. When Joshua saw the long sword, which had appeared on the abyss battlefield and swept away the entire blade-burning demon legion, the attack was unavoidable.
The reason for being unable to avoid is not a cause and effect fate, nor is it a lock of qi. The attack range of the Ember Sword is too wide. Before the opponent's corona flow of energy like a sunny person is gathered, the warrior is completely unable to leave the opponent's aiming range.
After all, this is the "earth sword" that claims to be able to reshape the surface and return the mountains and ridges to the Ashes Plain!
When its sword tip aimed at Joshua, energy condensed and space vibrated. An unknown illusion appeared over the western part of the Holy Mountain. The burning earth appeared, the erupting volcanoes, the fields covered with lava, and all kinds of illusions filled with wilderness at the beginning of the birth of the world flashed by, making the air burning, and countless Mars turned into rain and rained down.
The terrifying pressure spread towards the eight magics, and countless flying dragons wailed and fell from the sky. Even the other giant dragons that were fighting with the priests of the extreme level could not help but shivered. The paladins and priests were the same. They stopped attacking at the same time and turned to look at the simple and unpretentious sword in the air.
Evian's face was pale. He could feel his magic, his life, his bloodline and his soul being absorbed endlessly by this terrifying long sword. If it were his heyday in the form of a giant dragon, it might be just a serious illness. Now, the red dragon smells the scent of death.
But so what
The ferociousness lurking deep in the bloodline was aroused, and Evian's eyes were burning with golden red fire. The red dragon teared his soul and magic into the long sword without hesitation, no longer caring about his life.
Death is never terrible. What is terrible is that living is worthless. The life of the red dragon should be like a fire, like a volcano, and it will be its final glory when it erupts.
He wants that human to die before him!
"Jothia, I am with nothingness"
The last roar of the red dragon came to an abrupt end. The humanoid body of another human figure turned into nothingness with a wave of magic light, and it became a scarred dragon body. The red dragon body quickly turned gray and turned into dust in the sky, completely disappearing from this world with all burning Evian.
The long sword of Ember is floating in the air, and the tip of the sword is shining.
In the crisis of life and death, Joshua did not say anything nonsense, and his whole body of fighting spirit gathered in his heart. He knew that it was already life and death at this time. If he could not stop this attack, it would be the end of the body and soul like the red dragon.
Dong!
The heart was agitated, and the thunder roared, and all the hidden power in the body exploded in an instant. The warrior's chest suddenly bulged up. He raised his arms and crossed them over his head. The surging life energy was compressed and transported to his whole body with the heart as the core, and finally gathered on his arms that had turned into gold, iron and steel armor. There were only a few blue veins tightened and the muscles were tangled, which made the position shield formed by the condensed fighting spirit achieve the essence. The blue light of order turned into a light film under the operation of the sky blue bead, and the flashing runes mixed with the divine bones enveloped the warrior's whole body and the weapons in his hands.
At the same time, a little inspiration that had just been learned from the self-destruction of the Fusion Star also quickly triggered the warrior's crossed arms, a golden-red hot fireball was rapidly condensed, and the life energy that changed reality simulated the power of the sun with high temperature impact, and the fighting spirit poured into it like a torrent and thrust.
The next moment, the scorching heat from the center of the earth spreads above the sky.
Including the red dragon's ashes, dust in the air was ignited, and the flames in the sky covered the sky like stars, then turned into a vast vortex, all of which were returned to one place and condensed into a ray of light.
At this moment, the entire holy mountain battlefield seemed to be still. Every existence with life and soul had a thrill in its heart. It was the shock of witnessing the incredible power. They raised their heads and looked at the sky. The powerful energy even changed the celestial phenomena in this sky. The clouds collapsed into rain, the sun suddenly dimmed, and the day turned into the night sky, and the stars appeared in the sky.
I saw a red star shining among the stars in the sky. It quickly hangs and magnifies, turning into a pillar of light that runs through the sky and falls on the lava land.
The countless fighting shields and positions built by the warriors were shattered in front of this extremely pure red light pillar. It would be great to say that the defense constructed with one person's power could actually resist such great power, but all of this was useless in the end. The red light fell, and the black figure seemed to be roaring. He waved the giant sword in his hand, as if he wanted to split something, but was immediately swallowed by the light.
it's over.
This is the idea of everyone and the dragon. Under such a blow, no one under the legend can survive. This is the blow of moving mountains and clearing mountains, which is enough to cut a peak into two pieces in the waist and destroy a mountain into a plain. No matter how strong Qiao Xiuya is, he will inevitably be brought to sleep forever by the blow burning out his life by the red dragon.
Rumble rumble!!!
The endless shock wave spread, and the entire Crater lava area suddenly bulged under this impact, as if it had been lifted several times in an instant, but in an instant it turned into burning ashes under the extremely powerful impact of energy.
But an unexpected scene happened after this destructive roar, a slightly lower explosion sounded, and the light column that had fallen vertically also tilted a little because of the violent explosion. Under the impact of the extremely powerful energy flow, this little bit immediately turned into an unnegligible error. The red light column kept shaking and finally drifted obliquely towards the tide in the distance.
As the light column moved, the earth shattered, and the west of the Holy Mountain roared and roared. The ground immediately subsided several feet. A huge sword-slash crack composed of lava started with the crater and spread more than ten kilometers towards the distant sea like a straight line. Wherever it passed, the sea tide separated left and right, turning into two parallel waterfalls. The hurricane and rainstorm stopped and the sky was cloudless.
In the air, the black long sword shattered and turned into smoke and dust. The imitated artifact long sword had only one blow, and after one blow, it returned to the earth.
The liquid lava was blown into the air by a terrifying shock wave, and it fell like rain. The hot rock steam mixed with endless white water mist turned into a tornado in an instant, covering the entire western waters. The entire Edagray Island shook violently, and huge cracks broke open on the earth.
Although the magic circuit in the temple area was affected by such vibration, it still played a steadily role. Layer golden holy light shields rose to block most of the lava rain and shock waves, but the vertical and horizontal cracks were not something they could block. Many temples were temporarily paralyzed because of these cracks, allowing black and golden high-temperature magma to attack.
However, the other flying dragons present did not have such defensive means. Most of the flying dragons and giant dragons near the battlefield were blown away by fierce shock waves. The dragons over twenty meters long were no better than a fly under this power. The entire mad dragon legion west of the island and surrounding areas were almost completely destroyed in an instant, and were completely burned into wreckage by lava rain.
The war has temporarily stopped. All the extremely intentional dragons who are fighting with the priests of the Holy Mountain immediately get rid of their opponents. They are eager to rush back to rescue the dragons swept by the aftermath of the Ashes Sword. The Five-Colored Dragon Clan is sparsely populated, and the adult dragons participating in the war are even the backbone of the clan. They cannot allow these seeds to die meaninglessly.
The priests led by Robzek had no intention of continuing to fight with the dragon. The dragon clan's life was precious, and the priests in the holy mountain were the same. They all turned into holy light and flew towards temples where there were no defensive barriers everywhere.
If it is so powerful, if you wave at the holy mountain... you only need one blow to destroy the entire western defense line?
But a light golden light flew out from a temple, and in the center of the light column, the area that had become a lava lake flew rapidly.
Lolanda frowned. At this time, both the priests and the dragon had no time to take care of him and were busy saving his members. They seemed to have agreed to Joshua's death, but the blonde paladin did not think so. He looked directly at the Ember Sword to condense energy until the light column dropped and he keenly noticed it. At the moment when the light column actually hit the crater, a force that made him feel familiar exploded in an instant, pushing the light column away a little.
If it were a direct attack by a magic weapon, even Loranda would not doubt Joshua's death. But since it deviated, the Paladin would never believe that the warrior who could still survive under the direct attack of the evil god of natural disaster would die in such a place!
Never!
In an instant, Lorenda had arrived at the original crater. Now above the lava lake, the amazing heat was still spreading. The terrifying energy fluctuation aftermath was shocking back and forth in this place, hitting the holy light shield around the Paladin's head with a thumping sound. He lowered his head, glanced at the surging magma, as if he wanted to see through the existence behind it.
After a moment, the Paladin showed shock and joy.
At the same time, light bursts out from the surface of the lava, and the liquid rock seemed to be spread out by some force, and a black shadow shrouded in the hazy light shield emerged from it.
When a super-minded dragon saw this scene, it let out a breath and almost suffocated to death. After recovering, the white dragon immediately let out a roar of surprise and anger: "Isn't dead?"
"How could he not die?!"
Joshua was indeed not dead.
He held a silver sword in his hand, maintaining the posture of splitting something, and the giant axe tilted to his chest, blocking part of the power. The warrior seemed to be roaring at this time, and the burning sparks spewed out of his mouth and turned into a flow of weather to inform him of his survival.
As early as the melting star exploded, the clothes on the warrior's body turned into ashes, leaving only the armor formed by the Dou Qi as a block. At this time, the Dou Qi wrapped around his body was almost gone, almost disappearing, and the surface of his body was as full of cracks burning Mars like burning charcoal, and his blood was burned dry.
But no matter how embarrassed Joshua was, he was still holding the weapon in his hand tightly.
The muscles were burnt, the eyes turned into coke, and the arms could even see the thick white bones. The divine runes were flowing on it. The outer skin of the warrior had already been vaporized under the explosion of high temperatures, and most of the flesh and blood had disappeared.
Even with the vitality of the warrior, the end is approaching. The sky-blue pearls in the heart are bright and dark, releasing dim light. The continuous high-speed regeneration exceeds its load limit for a while and are about to strike.
But Joshua is still alive.
This is better than everything.
"Want to take me with you?"
Dou Qi replaced the throat, vibrating the atmosphere. Qiao Xiuya had become a pair of dark red Dou Qi's light in the depths of his eyes, still flashing with black and red Dou Qi's light. He looked up and 'eyed' into the sky, as if he was laughing.
"You are not qualified yet!"
After the attack of the Ember Sword was released, Joshua simply split the light ball that was suspended in front of him, which he used to simulate the self-destruction of the Fusion Star.
After two close contacts, one use, and one experience, the warriors are already very familiar with the power of the fusion star, but even so, the light ball is still very unstable. But just so, what Joshua wants is unstable. The Divine Machine transformed into a firefly was opened with one sword, and the unstable fireball immediately exploded, forming a more violent explosion than the fusion star that Evian had exploded before.
The energy of the geometric multiple reaction instantly exceeded the warrior's control ability, and it hit the magic weapon descending above the head.
There is no doubt that even such a powerful self-destruction could not compete with the blow sent by the Red Dragon burning out his life to activate the artifact. However, it tilted the unparalleled power a little bit like the reaction armor self-explosion and resistance armor-piercing bombs.
A slight difference is a thousand miles apart. In the end, Joshua only endured a small part of the direct attack of the magical artifact. Most of his miserable appearance is caused by his own self-destruction of energy.
The paladin quickly came to the warrior's side. Lorenda quickly supported the warrior's shoulders and quickly took it away from the lava zone. In the next second, the fury attack from the dragon's side had already descended to the lava lake. Just like an aurora descending to the earth, countless magical magic almost blows away this huge magma lake nearly a thousand meters away, and another round of lava rain fell.
After seeing Joshua who was still alive, Robzek and others were also shocked to almost lose their ability to think. Even if he had seen a warrior resisting various powerful spell attacks from Mandagar, he could not believe that Joshua could survive in such a desperate situation. This was simply incredible, a miracle among miracles!
But no matter how surprised it, after seeing Lorenda helping Joshua fly to the temple area, the silver-haired paladin immediately led other extremely priests to guard without saying a word. The attacks of the dragons were indeed powerful against the surface without resistance, but under the overlapping resonance of the holy lights, they could only ripples. After the holy lights that were escorting the warriors entered the central area of the Holy Mountain, no matter how unwilling the dragons could only stop attacking angrily.
At this time, the warrior was in a bad state.
The heartbeat of thunder gradually weakened, and the mind like fire was cooling down. The spirit was falling into the abyss, and the darkness was pressing rapidly. All the flesh and blood in the body except the heart and brain were completely burned. This injury took several hours to start from scratch, and the flesh that could be basically regenerated, but now Joshua is missing for these few hours.
He has not lived for five minutes.
He was moved into the most solemn hall of the Holy Mountain underground fortress. Joshua was placed on the stone slab in the center of the temple. He was surrounded by more than four extreme priests. Healing holy lights were injected into the warrior's body, urging flesh and blood to regenerate, but at this time, there was no active flesh and blood in his body. The surging power of the holy light could only barely maintain vitality for the warrior.
At this time, in the center of this magnificent and ancient hall underground, the black coke-like body became as bright as a black gem under the injection of holy light. There were even residual firepower discharged, forming a few ember-like light patterns. Although this look was gorgeous, with a trace of tragedy, but there was no breath of life.
"This won't work!"
In the center of the square majestic hall, the dean of the White Rose Monastery, the Grand Sister Besana frowned. The kind-looking old woman had a hint of anxiety in her voice: "The holy light can regenerate flesh and blood and reshape life. It is based on the fact that the subject still has a good body and does not resist. Count Radcliff only has his heart and still has vitality, but that is his energy center. Even if he allows, we cannot introduce the holy light into it at all!"
"At this time, it is not enough to need pure life energy injection!"
Another priest, Garcia, who was originally injured by the legendary dragon raid, immediately responded that the old man with dwarf blood kept calm and quick-thinking: "A heart of fear, or..."
"Your Excellency the Nature Mentor, this warrior is the key to your ability to find the Father of Nature."
Suddenly, behind all the powerful people, a somewhat erratic voice came from the old man.
Loranda, who had been watching from the side, turned around and looked, then her eyes suddenly widened: "Godfather...the Pope's Crown?!"
At the walls of the hall, in front of the exquisite murals and reliefs, two hazy figures seemed to condense from the distance, and the powerful energy light emitted from their bodies even illuminated the dome.
Pope Eagle's body at this time was composed of a fog of confusion of holy light. He seemed to be temporarily distracted, so when facing the shocked gazes of everyone, he just smiled slightly, and then disappeared silently. Next to him was a beautiful elf lady composed of green natural energy.
The lady was wearing clothes made of grass leaves and verdant oak leaf crowns. After the phantom of Pope Eagle's holy light disappeared, she walked towards the position where Joshua was. All the strong men of extreme intention subconsciously retreated and respectfully made way for the lady.
Because he was the leader of the Great Dru of the Elf clan, the mentor of the Way of Nature, and one of the leaders of all the elves in this world.
"I'm still alive like this..."
When he approached the warrior and saw Joshua's condition at this moment, the natural mentor couldn't help but sigh. She shook her head, and then smiled helplessly: "Iger called me to deal with the five-colored dragon with one sentence, and now he wants me to save people again..."
"Well, if you really told him, it is the key to finding God the Father..."
The elf lady took out a ball of light flashing with warm green from somewhere. In the center of the ball of light, a small piece of crystal clear translucent substance floated. It was like crystal, but its texture was less hard than the ore, more soft and full of a strong breath of life.
"The Heart of the Tree of Life!"
Everyone present immediately was amazed, and the natural tutor was not affected by this amazement. She came to the warrior, and without any hesitation, she pressed the tree heart to Joshua's heart.
The green light flashes.
