Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 1694: Chapter 1689: Instant Prison Kill

”Seems like they were holding back a bit, wanted to negotiate, but it turns out they aren’t willing to communicate at all.”

Disappearing in place is naturally the effect of the Blood Conquest.

With the added protection of the anti-exposure war armor gifted by the Red Moon, the essence of this blood-burning skill has become so much easier on the body that it’s almost like you could sleep with it on. Fu Qian uses it without any mental burden.

When he reappears, he stands right behind Yuan Shan without a care.

The mind must be agile. If a big shot doesn’t protect you, wouldn’t you take the initiative to hide under their protection?𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

And the fact is that the overwhelming attack did not have a tracking effect, missing and quickly dissipating.

Of course, this was followed by even more ferocious strikes, crashing onto Yuan Shan’s web like they were free.

”Do you have to say that?”

Under the exponentially increasing pressure, Yuan Shan, already bursting with negative emotions, shouts indignantly at this lack of loyalty.

After all, she has a Second Phase mentor, and she is quite aware of the immense pressure brought by this person before her.

Perhaps not Corin, but definitely Second Phase.

Really don’t know where all these fiends have been coming from lately.

And the reason she’s still holding on so far might actually be due to the advisor’s previous claim; the opponent hasn’t gone all out yet.

But whether or not they’ve made their move, it’s quite clear that she has to act soon.

The Second Phase is no joke. They showed up and attacked following a bit of bad luck talk, considering the strange tactics previously displayed. If you really wait until they go full force, the situation will likely spiral out of control.

In such circumstances, seizing the initiative is undoubtedly a reasonable choice, especially since there’s a Divine Envoy on her side—who unfortunately seems to have taken cover behind her.

That guy swore they wouldn’t be recognized. Surely it’s not their plan to stay out of it altogether?

Not to mention there’s no way this guy could be Corin, so the necessity for concealment takes a hit.

...

”Come help, something feels really off!”

Yuan Shan shouts again, obviously set on some resolution, and her Soft Whip moves once again, even actively dismantling the dense defenses before her.

”Forget about the details, let’s make a move together—-damn your jinx!”

Her voice rises as she speaks halfway through.

In her sight, wings behind the figure continue to spread to the sides as bright vortices condense upon them, aiming in their direction.

Just from a visual perspective, the terror is palpable. Such obvious charging actions clearly correct previous leniency.

No matter what, this can’t be allowed to continue—-”What are you doing?”

Yuan Shan’s racing thoughts abruptly stop. Amidst the irresistible force, she’s already been knocked back a bit before realizing that her side’s top battle power has made a move—-or rather, a kick.

The bookstore owner hidden behind, at that moment, kicked her flying.

Almost simultaneously, a terrifying ray shot from the wings that seemingly dissolves everything grazes past her arm.

In a sense, it did help avoid substantial damage, but the dodge was rather embarrassing. More crucially, losing initiative could lead to continuous suppression.

The only consolation might be that she’s not the only one—Wen Li, standing a bit farther away, also couldn’t escape and was similarly sent flying with a kick.

...

Do you think I don’t understand this stuff?

As dazzling brilliance filled his vision, Fu Qian activated Blood Conquest again, sneering inwardly.

Since he was able to think of the Angel Dungeon, how could he forget the methods witnessed there?

Much of his SAN Points had been destroyed by these attacks.

But after a three-day separation, how could he easily fall for it again?

Though hard to dodge, these rays clearly lack tracking abilities, posing no problem for Blood Conquest.

Compared to that—-

”Be careful not to get injured!”

Having dodged a volley, when Fu Qian reappeared after lifting Blood Conquest, there was Chief Yuan’s reminder.

With a compassed tone akin to sudden enlightenment, while reminding, Chief Yuan unhesitatingly abandoned the previous proactive strategy, recreating the black web-like barrier and weaving it even thicker.

”Just like that Human Nature Annihilation, the damage inflicted can also accumulate in the Time Cage!”

While posing this absolute defense, Yuan Shan continued reminding without pause, shouting quickly.

”The damage I sustained defies logic, having been repeated at least ten times during that segment!”

Speaking, she struggled to turn sideways, allowing Fu Qian to see the other side of her body—a mere right hand grazed by the ray, now reduced to only half.

Even the remaining upper arm was bare bone, most of the flesh vaporized.

Comparatively, the Wen Li she protected behind her was much more intact.

Having not been targeted initially, under Fu Qian’s careful approximation of distance, Wen Li, without taking a single step, landed perfectly behind Yuan Shan.

...

Hmph, otherwise, why do you think I’d kick you away?

The methods of a Divine Envoy are not just about serving more fishes or scaring people.

Back when the term ”Time Cage” was mentioned, I had already envisioned its possible true utility.

For instance, the legendary Instant Thousand Strikes.

What significance lies in a time loop where each encounter is identical and unchangeable?

In truth, Lord Angel, when crafting a terrifying atmosphere and applying pressure, had already answered it—some changes occurring during this process can have multiplied effects at the end of the loop.

Like Human Nature’s Annihilation.

Comparatively, while initially somewhat startled, Chief Yuan and the others, Fu Qian was eliminating fear while pondering the potential pessimistic aspect—-

What if, in this irresistible loop, it’s not just possible to accumulate this?

What if Lord Angel’s attack damage can also be compounded?

Don’t forget, the essence of Human Nature Annihilation is the separation of the dark side, and the next step is purification.

Such a seamlessly progressing process, assuming they’re of the same dimension, doesn’t seem far-fetched.

This would undoubtedly imply a terrifying possibility, facing this Lord Angel, even a bit of damage could be wildly magnified within the Time Cage.

The situation’s indeed getting trickier... this is what matches the methods of a Divine Envoy!

Amidst admiration, Fu Qian mimicked Yuan Shan’s motions, turning slightly.

And to her aghast gaze, contrasted distinctly with her severed arm—a scene appeared; Fu Qian’s entire left hand was swelling exaggeratedly, akin to a beast’s limb.

Even the surface was lined with spikey fangs.

Meanwhile, confronting the threat locked onto him, Fu Qian reciprocally locked onto the opponent, granting it ”Calamity.”
