"Unyielding Heart," "Battle Technique All Transformations," "Severed Thought," "Unconscious Will."

Four layers of Battle Intent swirled around Lu Cang.

Divine Authority. This was the Authority of a god.

The Restriction was broken.

Aertemi’s face was flushed, and she brought a finger to her lips, biting it gently.

"You still haven’t told me your name."

WHOOSH—

The two of them changed positions almost simultaneously!

The instant Aertemi appeared, sixteen War Spears had already materialized!

"Source·Reflection of the Past."

Reflection of the Past reproduced attacks from a space one had previously witnessed.

Moreover, a reflection couldn’t reflect another reflection...

Otherwise, Lu Cang really would have stacked all those War Spears.

Layer upon layer, an infinite stack.

He had four hundred ninety billion souls left.

After the Thousand Army Ant Mountain evolved into the Erupting Black Ant Mountain, it provided tens of billions of souls every day.

And since Lu Cang wasn’t exactly short on souls, he didn’t bother deliberately boosting the Ant Mountain’s output, just letting it erupt on its own.

"Why aren’t you answering my question?"

However, his Final Sense and Future Method predicted the woman’s appearance, but the moment she materialized... she immediately vanished again!

SWISH!

She was already close to Lu Cang again!

’Just a little longer... before I can use Forgetfulness Void.’

’So fast!’

But after fighting for so long, he could finally see it clearly.

His heart was pounding wildly, its rate now likely more than ten times what it was in a normal combat state.

Her original form vanished.

Annihilating, she would immediately reform in the Void from a single point, which then filled with flesh and blood!

The speed was too great.

To him, it was practically teleportation.

By the time she appeared before him, Aertemi had already extended a hand!

Lu Cang didn’t dare fight her in close quarters; just touching her would get him skinned.

’I have to use a weapon!’

The Holy Light-slaying Sword!

This weapon from the Light Church! It could unleash multiple strikes in an instant at extreme speed! And every strike would be accompanied by a Light Blade!

BANG!

"Azure Sky Stream—Third Form·Illusion Strike."

In a flash, a thousand layers of Magic and strikes erupted!

Ten thousand blades of light in a single moment!

Yet, the moment these blades of light touched Aertemi’s skin, they shattered like glass on the floor.

They broke into countless fragments, scattering in all directions.

"Did you think that would work?" Aertemi scoffed with contempt.

The sword struck Aertemi’s slender arm directly, but the instant the blade made contact, the entire sword split down the middle. The Light Saber was cleaved in two!

And her hand, completely unimpeded, continued to reach for him!

’Completely useless...’

"Date of Death: 43 years, 11 months, 3 days."

Lu Cang kept his eyes fixed on her, and at the same time...

...from his tightly clenched left hand, he released a small, constantly rotating, murky-colored orb!

VMMMM—

Layers of Restrictions peeled away!

When Lu Cang had first obtained this item, he had only removed the Restriction that kept it from being moved.

Until now.

He finally broke the Seal completely!

SWOOSH!

The Restriction on the murky orb was broken!

SNAP—

In an instant, the entire world plunged into absolute darkness!

Darkness surrounded him, and he lost all five of his senses!

However...

In this ultimate darkness, his Final Sense was still active.

His Perception was not hindered by the darkness.

Normally, this darkness should have obscured all perception, and combined with the total loss of the five senses, it should have plunged one into pure, absolute darkness.

But because it was a Divine Talent, his Perception could not be shielded and was thus unaffected.

Aertemi being hindered for that single moment was all it took for Forgetfulness Void to finish its cooldown!

WHOOSH—

Lu Cang disappeared again.

And Aertemi, once again, forgot.

Only the Viscous Darkness remained, sealing away the five senses. This darkness corroded the body, slowly devouring everything within it.

THUNK!

Just then, Aertemi felt her body get pierced by sixteen War Spears again!

’Annoying pest.’

"Darkness..."

Aertemi suddenly realized she had only been focused on his physical body.

But at the same time he had entered the Forbidden Halls of the Three Great Churches...

...he had completely emptied them of everything that was supposed to be stored inside!

The roar of souls shrieked out once more!

When Aertemi appeared again, the darkness was torn asunder. The gloom around her ripped apart like a curtain, spreading in all directions.

"Date of Death: 39 years, 11 months, 3 days."

"You really do like using the same trick over and over."

SWOOSH!

But Aertemi suddenly whipped her head around!

There was Lu Cang, appearing behind her.

He wasn’t hiding anymore. Instead...

’He’s appearing right in front of me?’

’Hmph. Has he realized it’s pointless to hide?’

’Even this darkness can’t stop me from finding him.’

’In the end, what good is a Holy Artifact from the Church?’

’Could these Holy Artifacts, left behind in the Churches of some backwater kingdom, possibly stand against the mortal vessel of a Divine Spirit?!’

But then her gaze suddenly fell upon the weapon in Lu Cang’s hands.

A silver Holy Spear!

Golden light enveloped the silver!

"Azure Sky Stream—Sixth Form·Extreme."

"Light Forbidden Technique: Punishment of All Evils—Sacrifice Soul: 100 Billion."

Lu Cang gripped the long spear tightly!

This was the perfect moment to strike!

She had forgotten him, and with the addition of the Unconscious Will state...

Her reaction time was now significantly delayed, and in that split second, Aertemi forgot how to react—

"Divine Level·Enlightenment Realm Awareness."

His two Extreme Battle Intents, as well as the Moonlight Realm, all carried the faint absolutism of a Divine Talent.

No matter who the opponent was, they would be affected to some degree!

Unless the opponent was the Moon of this realm itself.

DONG—

Aertemi tried to raise her hand, to grab the long spear head-on and disintegrate it.
