Chapter 760: Chapter 521: Defiant Legends: "Dawn Blade" and "Windwalker
Like a pane of glass about to shatter!
Mage Delin’s body swayed, and a trickle of blood escaped the corner of his mouth.
The faces of the other seventeen Legendary Powerhouses turned incredibly grim.
The combined power of nine heads attacking at once had, in the end, surpassed the limits of what the Wall of Sighs could withstand!
In the next instant.
CRACK!
With a crisp shattering sound, the massive barrier that spanned heaven and earth violently disintegrated!
It dissolved into billions of brilliant motes of light, scattering in all directions like a river of stars flowing in reverse.
Having lost their final shield.
The figures of the eighteen Legendary Powerhouses were now completely exposed to the indifferent gaze of the Nine-headed Demon Serpent.
The storm of destruction began to rage once more!
’It’s over...’
Raylo’s mind went completely blank.
However.
In the very instant the barrier shattered and the motes of light scattered.
A streak of golden light was the first to charge out from the exploding radiance!
Not retreating, not dodging!
It was a charge!
It was a Legendary Knight clad in Golden Heavy Armor, wielding a Giant Sword.
Claudius, the "Dawn Blade"!
His entire being seemed to transform into a sharp blade piercing through the darkness. Golden Fighting Spirit blazed around him. Without a trace of fear or hesitation, he forged ahead to meet the towering phantom of the Nine-headed Demon Serpent!
Claudius, the "Dawn Blade," transformed into a golden meteor of supreme brilliance.
There was no hesitation.
Not a single step back.
In the instant the Wall of Sighs shattered, the moment before the storm of destruction descended again, he chose the most valiant path.
A charge!
His target was one of the heads, the one emitting invisible, distorting waves.
The head that controlled Gravity!
Raylo instantly understood Claudius’s intent.
Of the eighteen Legendary Powerhouses present, more than half were Mages.
And a Gravity Domain was a massive restriction for Mages, who needed a stable environment for Casting!
If he could just eliminate the source of this gravity, the Mage Corps would be able to unleash their true power!
Claudius was using his own body to pry open a sliver of hope for his comrades!
The golden light tore through the chaotic torrent of Elements, hurtling straight toward its target.
Its speed was too fast for the naked eye to follow.
However, the moment Claudius entered its attack range, the indifferent eyes of the serpent head he had targeted narrowed slightly.
HUMMM!
An invisible force, yet one heavy enough to crush mountains, descended in an instant!
The space around Claudius distorted, the effect visible to the naked eye!
His charging figure seemed to slam into an unseen wall, his speed abruptly halting!
It was too fast!
The shift from extreme motion to absolute stillness happened in a hundredth of a second!
The terrifying inertia was enough to make a steel warship disintegrate instantly!
But Claudius did not.
His Golden Heavy Armor groaned under the immense strain, and cracks of golden Fighting Spirit spread across the Armor’s surface.
He stopped.
Suspended in mid-air.
The air beneath him was so densely compressed by the terrifying Gravity that it formed tangible, water-like ripples!
’Such terrifying Gravity...’
From dozens of miles away, Raylo felt a tightness in his chest just from looking at that distorted space.
He couldn’t imagine the horrifying pressure Claudius was enduring at its center.
It was a pressure of several hundred times normal gravity stacked together!
Any being below the Catastrophe Level would have been instantly crushed into a puddle of gore.
Not even bones would remain!
The power of a single head was enough to imprison a human Legendary Knight!
The Nine-headed Demon Serpent’s other eight heads were not idle.
Corrosive venom, freezing frost, destructive Thunderbolts... they began to brew once more. They would not give this ant who dared to provoke them any chance to survive.
Just then, a furious roar that shook the heavens erupted from the center of that distorted space!
"For humanity!"
Claudius’s voice, filled with resolute will, pierced through the heavy spatial lockdown.
BOOM!
In that instant, the golden Fighting Spirit on his body was no longer flowing, but... burning!
Like an ignited Sun!
Golden Flames erupted from every seam of his Armor, painting him as a burning Golden War Deity!
He forcibly pushed against the terrifying Gravity that could crush anything and took another step!
One step.
Just one step.
But the space beneath his foot let out a crisp CRACK.
Like a mirror, it shattered inch by inch!
He had actually shattered the space distorted by Gravity through sheer Power and Fighting Spirit!
"ROAR!"
Claudius roared again, a cathartic release of power pushed to its absolute limit!
He raised his Giant Sword high.
Upon the blade of that equally golden Heavy Broadsword, the flames of his golden Fighting Spirit madly converged and extended.
Ten meters.
A hundred meters.
A thousand meters!
A terrifying blade of light, a thousand meters long and as solid as cast Gold, appeared in mid-air!
The moment that blade of light appeared, all other light in the vicinity dimmed.
Even the sunlight on the horizon seemed to lose its color.
"Sever!"
Claudius swung the Giant Sword down with all his might.
No fancy techniques.
No arcane trajectories.
Only the purest, most primal, most domineering Power!
RIIIP!
The thousand-meter-long golden blade of light, like a paper knife forcibly slicing through a crumpled sheet of paper!
The space that had been distorted by Gravity, stagnant as a solid, was forcibly... torn open!
The invisible Gravity Field, under this incomparably domineering strike, was momentarily fractured!
