Chapter 455 War of Superheating

"Boom————!"

With a deafening roar, a pile of debris and rubble suddenly burst open at the center of that enormous crater, creating a berserk shockwave that swept through like a violent storm.

In the heart of that storm, surrounded by a white phosphorescent glow, Fang Li, seemingly burning slowly, slowly stood up. He kept his head down, his expression obscured and uttered a sentence as if transmitted from a distant sky, echoing unbelievably across the entire horizon.

"In the end, I was still forced to use it?"

No one could comprehend the true meaning behind Fang Li's words at this moment.

However, Trinity could distinctly feel it at this moment.

Sensing Fang Li's transformation.

It was a qualitative transformation.

Explained in a way that Crimson World Denizens could understand, Fang Li's 'Existence' suddenly became immense.

Moreover, it was incredibly immense.

"What did he do?"

The expressions of Hecate, Sydonay, and Bel Peol all changed.

Fang Li, raising his head, looked towards Trinity suspended in mid-air. His ice-blue Mystic Eyes, reflecting the white phosphorescent glow, emitted a sense of sacred coldness.

Yet, this sacred coldness caused Trinity's hearts to tighten simultaneously, and they felt as if they were being targeted by a fearsome beast. Their bodies tensed up involuntarily.

"Bang————!"

At that moment, the ground suddenly exploded without any warning.

It was shattered by force.

In the abruptly exploding ground, Fang Li's figure disappeared suddenly.

Like a phantom, he appeared in front of Sydonay and his ice-blue Mystic Eyes and the white phosphorescent glow simultaneously entered Sydonay's line of sight.

"What...!" Sydonay's eyes beneath the sunglasses contracted suddenly.

The next second, a blade light silently appeared, slashing towards Sydonay's body.

It was an almost dazzling slash.

This slash had no movement, no trace, and it seemed to appear like moonlight materializing out of nowhere, rising with a silent and imperceptible air.

Then, it descended upon Sydonay's body, who had no time to react.

"Pū Chī————!"

In the clear and distinct sound of a slash, flames, like blood, turned into scattered sparks, falling to the ground.

"Ugh...!"

Sydonay let out a muffled sound.

"…!"

Beside him, Hecate and Bel Peol, unable to react, were utterly shocked.

Ignoring the presence of Hecate and Bel Peol completely, Fang Li hovered close to Sydonay. With Moonlight Dagger in hand, he spun it, delivering another dazzling strike.

"Pū Chī————!"

Another slash resounded.

Two extremely fast slashes, one in front and one in back cut Sydonay's body into a cross, dividing it into four pieces simultaneously.

However, within those flesh chunks, turbid purple flames ignited, reconverging into Sydonay's body.

With the moniker of 'Thousand Changes,' Sydonay possessed the ability to transform his body into any conceivable form, creating one incarnation after another.

In this situation, much like Sabrac before him, Sydonay directly discarded his heavily injured body, using the remaining parts to reassemble into a completely new form. He appeared before Fang Li, carrying the heavy steel spear.

"Is this the hidden trump card you mentioned last time?!" Sydonay roared, swinging the steel spear like a wheel of wind. It carried turbid purple flames, accompanied by unparalleled force, heavily striking in Fang Li's direction, shattering and bursting the air along its path.

"Clang————!"

In the heavy collision of metal, the light and agile dagger clashed with the heavy steel spear, sparking a brilliant display of sparks and a profound impact.

However, this time, Fang Li wasn't sent flying by the force that could topple mountains and overturn seas. He effortlessly blocked the strike, causing the white phosphorescent glow around his body to ripple like flames.

"Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh————!"

Sydonay erupted with a roar that shook the air. The arm holding the steel spear surged, causing it to grow rapidly, transforming into a massive arm covered in bulging muscles.

"Is this your trump card?" Sydonay roared as he attacked.

"Squeak————!"

Suddenly, the heavy steel spear, supported by formidable power, rubbed against the sharp dagger, generating intense sparks. Simultaneously, in the ear-piercing whistling sound, it relentlessly pressed down, bringing the sharp blade of the spear dangerously close to Fang Li.

This left Fang Li somewhat astonished.

Currently, Fang Li's Stigma has reached Level 2, doubling his attributes and significantly increasing his power.

However, a two-fold increase in attributes didn't mean a mere two-fold increase in overall strength. As attributes were upgraded, the enhancement they provided gradually grew stronger.

So, even with his attributes doubled, Fang Li was surprised that Sydonay could still suppress him in power.

"No wonder you, Chi-You, besides the three beings revered as gods, are probably the strongest among the Denizens of the Crimson World!"

Saying this, Fang Li exerted force in return.

"Zheng————!"

A radiant glow, like fragments of stars, hovered around his body.

Fang Li converted all his Prana into attack power.

"Clang————!"

In the crisp sound, Fang Li effortlessly shook the dagger, flicking away the heavy steel spear.

Sydonay's figure suddenly lost balance.

"Bang————!"

A stifling sound echoed.

It was the sound of Fang Li spinning around, a foot striking Sydonay's chest.

Thus, under the berserk force of the wind, Sydonay's figure, like Fang Li before, turned into a projectile, flying heavily and crashing onto a building, shattering it and collapsing it down.

"Aster!"

Just as Fang Li was preparing to pursue, Hecate's inorganic voice finally resounded.

"SwooshSwooshSwooshWhoosh————!"

A ray of light, like a meteor shower, suddenly attacked from the side, engulfing Fang Li like a torrential storm.

Each meteor in this array possessed terrifying destructive power capable of demolishing a tall building. Fang Li just intended to dodge when suddenly a fierce wind rose around him.

"Hua la la————!"

Chains abruptly shot towards him, resembling agile pythons, encircling Fang Li's body. They formed a steel cage that surrounded him completely.

"Don't even think about escaping."

With this wicked laughter, Bel Peol swung out another chain, entwining it around the steel cage. With a forceful tug, Fang Li, along with the cage, was directly pulled towards the incoming meteor swarm.

"BOOM————!"

A terrifying explosion erupted in mid-air, shaking the heavens.
