Chapter 828: Chapter 639 Demon Decree
Huang Xiang stared at Zang Yuanâs head, his eyes red, not expecting that all the comrades who came along with him had died at the hands of that Holy Temple Knight!
"Damn it!!"
Huang Xiangâs heart surged with hatred, his body constantly exerting strength. Suddenly, a peculiar fluctuation emanated from his body, and two of the Light Holy Nails binding him suddenly "thud" and snapped open.
"Oh?" Ashley noticed this, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, the opponent at the Waning Moon Stage could gradually break free even under the dual bindings of Helbas and herself, truly something unusual.
Moreover, this power fluctuation seems to have some connection with destiny...
Itâs no wonder heâs associated with the boss, indeed not something simple.
"But for a while, he wonât be able to break free..."
Ashley pondered silently, then raised her head, looking towards the distant Holy Ancient Tree that had retracted most under the All Things Magic Cube, and Helbas standing in front of the tree, her eyes narrowing slightly.
The time has come...
"Demon Decree!"
Ashley spoke softly, after which the golden star track in her eyes halted slightly, then began to run in reverse!
In an instant, the bright red pupils began to diffuse with a blue-black color as if some inexplicable change was rapidly happening within Ashley.
"Hmm?!"
A struggling Huang Xiang suddenly sensed a hint of coldness. Upon looking up, he discovered that Ashleyâs aura had changed dramatically, becoming much more profound and dangerous.
In Ashleyâs eyes, everything had turned gray-black, a multitude of blue and red nodes filled over all objects... including the distant Helbas and the Holy Ancient Tree!
These nodes were all projected "dead points" of things seen in the futureâs end, destroying the present by severing the future and thus destroying it from outcome to cause.
This is the power of the "Demon Decree!"
Similarly foreseeing the future, the Oracle is mere prediction, while the Demon Decree is for destruction!
Ashley looked at Helbasâs back; now, there were over a dozen blue dead points, both bright and dark, on his body...
"Holy Ancient Tree!"
Helbas watched the Holy Ancient Tree about to be entirely absorbed into the All Things Magic Cube, his eyes brimming with excitement and frenzy.
As long as he brings back this tree, even branches can be used to refine a top-grade Light Element Epic Star Artifact!
Moreover, when he achieves the Burning Sun, using the Holy Ancient Treeâs trunk as the main material, he might even refine a Legendary Holy Artifact if he commissions the top Artifact Refiner from the Holy Temple!
Thinking of this, Helbas couldnât help but feel a dry throat!
But at this moment, Helbas suddenly sensed a strong sense of crisis and quickly dodged to the side.
Still, he was a bit slow, and something immediately struck Helbasâs back on the spot!
Helbasâs face changed; he quickly stepped back and turned around, only to see Ashley holding a slender sword, looking at him coldly.
"Aliceâs sword? Ashley, do you seek death?!" Helbasâs fury erupted immediately.
It wasnât that Helbas had no defenses against Ashley.
Itâs just that Helbas had always viewed Ashley as not inherently aggressive, plus he was somewhat relaxed right now, which allowed Ashley to strike him with a sword.
Yet at this moment, the Ashley before him was like a completely different person!
Helbasâs heart moved, intending to unleash a Spiritual Power Bombardment again!
But suddenly, the Holy Light roaring from Helbasâs body was like an engine malfunctioning and leaking air, strong and weak alternately, flickering incessantly, and its intensity was less than a third of before, while the Cross Star behind couldnât even gather, directly disintegrating!
"What is happening?!"
Helbasâs face changed drastically, only then noticing that the place struck by Ashley on his back strangely left no wound, not even a drop of blood.
That thrust didnât pierce his body but seemed to stab into his Star Sea, "killing" the Star Sea!
In Ashleyâs view, that blue dead point at Helbasâs Star Sea had turned gray.
"One strike..."
Ashleyâs eyes locked, not willing to waste words with Helbas, her figure flickering as she once again charged forward with her sword.
"Damn you, scum, Iâll crush you!"
Helbas was enraged beyond measure, raising his hand to form a Light Holy Spear and hurling it at Ashley!
In Ashleyâs eyes, numerous red dead points emerged on the Holy Spear. Ashley raised her sword to strike these points, slicing the spear effortlessly in two like cutting through bamboo!
Once severed, the Holy Spear disintegrated into Light Element, scattering without even a chance to explode.
"What is this ability!"
Helbas was shocked. With a thought, large circular halos arose around him, with numerous Light Holy Spears shooting out towards Ashley!
Ashley remained as calm as ever, her left hand spread open, dozens of beams of Holy Light shot from her palm, precisely slicing every incoming Holy Spear into pieces, with not a single more or less!
Instead of merely exhibiting extremely keen reactions and top-tier Star Power Control, it seemed Ashley had preemptively anticipated Helbasâs attack.
After breaking numerous Holy Spears, Ashley wasted no time charging right at Helbas, raising her sword for another strike.
Helbas, shocked, hastily condensed another Light Holy Spear as a shield in front of him.
For the Demon Decree, the number of dead points needed might differ to destroy various objects.
Once the next strike could kill the target, the dead point would turn from blue to red.
After the Star Sea was shattered, Helbasâs Star Power plummeted, even inferior to Ashleyâs. These condensed Holy Spears could be easily severed with a single strike, thus all became red death points.
Ashley struck the death point of the Holy Spear with a single sword, severing it, and further landed a sword strike on a death point on Helbasâs shoulder!
No blood spurted out, but Helbas immediately felt his shoulder and even his entire arm drift out of his control.
Moreover, after this strike, a strong sense of crisis surged into Helbasâs heart!
It seemed... he couldnât be struck again!
In Ashleyâs eyes, almost all of the blue death points on Helbasâs body suddenly turned into conspicuous red death points!
"Damn it!"
Helbasâs face showed surprise, could it be he would be killed by a Waning Moon Stage today?
Looking at Ashley, Helbas was so shocked that, without hesitation, he hurriedly retreated backward!
However, Ashley was already prepared, and with a raise of her left hand, "Divine Court Curtain!"
Countless golden beams descended from midair in front, blocking Helbasâs retreat.
Helbasâs eyes narrowed, and he was about to smash the Divine Court Curtain before him with his fist.
However, in the next moment, three more layers of the Divine Court Curtain descended in succession.
Helbasâs face changed drastically, and as he turned his head, Ashley was already closing in again.
"Damn it!" Helbas flipped his hand and pulled out an Epic Grade long spear!
Though Helbas didnât quite understand Ashleyâs bizarre ability, compared to the Holy Spear he gathered, this epic long spear was certainly much sturdier.
With a ruthless look in his eyes, Helbas opted for offense over defense, thrusting the spear straight at Ashley!
But Ashley neither dodged nor evaded, merely sidestepping slightly to avoid the heart while heading straight towards the spear.
"What?!"
Helbasâs pupils shrank, and he tried to pull back.
Yet, the Divine Court Curtain behind him had already surrounded him, cutting off his retreat. Ashley grabbed the spear with her left hand and thrust her right hand suddenly at the death point on Helbasâs chest.
"Die!" Ashley said coldly.
Like a death decree issued by a Demon God, an irresistible rule erupted from the red death point struck on Helbasâs chest.
Helbasâs body trembled, "Clang!"âas if something within him shattered.
Staring blankly at Ashley, Helbas opened his mouth but couldnât even utter a word before the light in his eyes dimmed, losing all vitality on the spot...
"Whew..." Ashley exhaled softly.
Looking at Helbasâs corpse, Ashley released her grip on the slender sword, held the spear piercing her abdomen with both hands, and gritted her teeth as she pulled it out little by little.
"Ugh!..."
Under intense pain, Ashleyâs whole body involuntarily trembled slightly, and by the time the spear was extricated from her body, her forehead was already drenched in cold sweat.
Ashley discarded the spear, raised her hand to seal it, and used the Healing Skill to simply treat the blood hole in her chest.
Although it was somewhat reckless, being able to severely wound and break the opponentâs ultimate death point was absolutely worth it.
After all, Helbas was powerful and had many methods. For a Waning Moon Stage like herself, having the chance to kill him meant she had to seize it quickly to avoid unexpected developments.
Ashley looked at Helbasâs corpse and muttered to herself, "Helbas is settled, next, it should not be difficult for the boss to handle..."
This ancient fragment lies between the continents, and upon entering, Ashley had already cast a prophecy, sure enough attracting experts from various continents, some of them possessing extraordinary strength!
Therefore, Ashley thought to eliminate as many of the thorny ones as possible who would obstruct the boss from devouring the Tiger Vein.
Originally, accomplishing this was very challenging, as she was only at the Waning Moon Stage.
But through the Oracle and the Elf Saintessâs Prayer, Ashley gained more room for maneuver.
The Saintessâs Prayer, offering the Power of Destiny through prayer, allowed things to naturally proceed as she wished.
Though this skill was peculiar, it couldnât conjure something from nothing or make dreams come true.
But unlike others who merely prayed for the âoutcomeâ, Ashley inherently could see more of the future through the Oracle.
In this way, Ashley could influence the âprocessâ, specifically channeling the Power of Destiny to a target position or direction!
Simply put, it was targeted action!
By pushing the âprocessâ to drive the âresultâ, she was more likely to achieve the desired outcome.
On one hand, Ashley used Mo Fei as an introduction, resolving a troublesome point on the Western Continent through others.
While Ashley herself induced a collision between two troublesome targets in the north, solving them together in the end.
Thus, finally addressing three troublesome points.
Ashley retracted her thoughts, the Star Track in her eyes paused and resumed normal operation, her pupils soon returning to a pure red.
However, a faint mist seemed to obscure the front.
Ashley blinked and rubbed her eyes, then stood silent for a moment...
Shaking her head, Ashley turned her gaze aside, where the Holy Ancient Tree had also been entirely absorbed by the Magic Cube.
"This Holy Ancient Tree is quite an unexpected gain, it can be placed in the bossâs Qingming Realm!"
Ashley smiled with delight, stepped forward to put away the All Things Magic Cube, and finally turned her gaze to Huang Xiang nearby.
