Purgatory Artist-Chapter 423: Misty Identity
Chapter 423 - Misty Identity
Dark Executioner stood still.
Its entire body was condensed from dark flowing water. Behind it was a dark, misty fog, and its face was constantly changing.
" After gathering these nightmare creatures, you think you can challenge me? "
It spoke with a booming voice.
Liu Ping stayed silent for a bit, then looked up.
Above the Dark Executioner's head, lines of text were constantly changing:
[Descender of Nightmares]
" This is "
Before the text finished, the original face on the Executioner's face suddenly disappeared, quickly condensing into another ferocious face filled with killing intent.
The text above its head changed again:
[ Pursuer of the Distant Tide ]
[ This is an existence from the depths of nightmares, an extremely powerful destroyer, it ... ]
Before the text finished, the Executioner's face changed again.
Liu Ping muttered: "I've never seen someone as strong as you, who exactly are you?"
The Dark Executioner replied " After I've killed these guys and cut off your limbs, we'll have a chat "
It formed a fist stance on the spot.
A human martial art?
Liu Ping's heart skipped a beat, a shadow appeared behind him.
The shadow walked out, turned into another Liu Ping, and threw out all the Cards in its hand.
Bam bam bam bam bam!
After a series of explosions, the other 29 Nightmares appeared.
"All of you, attack!" Liu Ping said.
The Nightmares surrounded the Dark Executioner, unleashing all sorts of attacks.
The Dark Executioner stood in the middle, its face suddenly changed into a ferocious grin, mocking them: " It's useless "
An unimaginable aura surged out from its body, sweeping across the entire area like a hurricane.
Wherever the wind passed, fog would appear.
Countless strange faces appeared from the fog and looked at all the Nightmares who had attacked.
In an instant, the Nightmares seemed to have lost all their strength and fell from the sky.
They lay flat on the ground, unable to move at all.
" I forgot to tell you, even if there were 10 times more of you, you still wouldn't be my match "
The Executioner slowly spoke.
It took a step forward.
Ka-cha!
The Nightmares closest to it, who were lying flat on the ground, had their heads crushed by the stomp.
The shadow stood before Liu Ping, speaking in a low voice: "Such power ... you're definitely not a normal Nightmare, who exactly are you? "
The Dark Executioner chuckled. "Who am I? This is a secret. Only dead existences can know my true identity. "
The shadow suddenly took out a golden apple and threw it high into the sky.
In an instant, the Dark Executioner could not help but fly up and pluck the Golden Apple.
Only then did the shadow look back at Liu Ping.
"We caught a big fish, the kind that eats people," he said in a low voice.
Liu Ping's gaze landed on the shadow, only to see that his hand had started to turn completely black.
"It's a kind of erosion."
The shadow cut off his own arm.
Suddenly, an angry roar resounded in the sky.
The two of them looked up and saw the Dark Executioner holding the glowing Golden Apple, floating in the air and roaring furiously.
Pa!
With a soft sound, the golden light burst forth.
The Dark Executioner crushed the Golden Apple!
"I've never seen anyone resist the temptation of the Golden Apple," the shadow muttered.
Another Card appeared in his hand.
Nightmare Card: Destined Stepping Stone.
This Card will directly appear at the enemy's foothold and bind them with the Nightmare Rope, causing them to lose their ability to engage in close combat.
You must sacrifice 99% of your combat strength to use this Card!
The shadow threw the Card away and muttered: "I've sacrificed my combat strength"
"You've worked hard, quickly return" Liu Ping said.
The shadow nodded and disappeared into the void of space.
Liu Ping looked at the Dark Executioner in the air, only to see that it had an interested expression, crossed its arms and said:
"I've indeed been hit by that Card of yours, but I'm still in the air"
"As long as I don't fall, I won't have a foothold and won't be hit by that Card of yours"
Liu Ping was surprised: "You know?"
"These petty tricks, to me, are as shallow and laughable as those living beings, yet you want to use them to defeat me?" the Dark Executioner scoffed.
Suddenly.
It slowly lowered its head.
He saw that a square stone had appeared out of nowhere and was perfectly placed under his feet.
On the ground, a blinking crown appeared above Liu Ping's head. The Blade in his hand had just cut open the flat ground and dug out a groove.
40 meters of Shroud of Darkness!
As soon as the rock was dug out, it was sent into the air by the ring of light, landing right under the Dark Executor's feet.
"Here, the stepping stone is yours, no need to thank me," Liu Ping said.
As soon as he finished speaking, countless small holes suddenly appeared on the rock. Ropes shot out from the small holes and completely tied up the Dark Executioner.
"Petty tricks" the Dark Executioner coldly scoffed.
Its body trembled, followed by a series of cracking noises.
All the ropes were broken.
Occultism: The destined stepping stone was broken just like that!
Just as the Dark Executor was about to take action, it noticed that the world was spinning upside down.
In the air.
A chilling Blade phantom shot through the air.
Liu Ping passed by the Dark Executioner's headless body and flew into the air.
He put his Blade away and hovered even higher in the air, looking down.
The Dark Executioner's head had already fallen to the ground, giving off a hard thud.
He had to use almost all of his means to cut off its head.
Liu Ping shook his head and was about to land when he felt that something was amiss.
The Dark Executioner's headless body was still hovering in the air, while the endless fog was still rising behind it!
The little girl's voice suddenly sounded in Liu Ping's mind:
"Be careful, I haven't received any changes to the Laws of your promotion to Inner Plane Number One"
Liu Ping's expression changed and immediately sheathed his Blade.
A few burning lines of text appeared:
[Your Warden Saber has returned to its sheath and activated: 'Rotation']
[Rotation]
[You will not receive any damage that is guaranteed to hit, all damage will first be taken by defensive techniques or objects]
Almost at the same time as the Blade was sheathed, the endless fog behind the Dark Executioner suddenly shot into the sky, turned into a violent shadow, and crashed into Liu Ping.
Dong!
Liu Ping was knocked down, creating a deep crater on the ground.
The blank world was gone.
Wherever Liu Ping passed, the void of space split apart, revealing the Inner Plane's scenery.
The Palace and everything near the palace began to collapse and be destroyed.
This attack was taken by the battlefield created by the Inner Plane. After the battlefield was destroyed, the entire Inner Plane took the brunt of the attack.
Liu Ping stood up and looked at the collapsing castle.
If I didn't activate [Rotation] in time, I would've been killed by that attack just now.
He looked at the sky.
The Dark Executioner was holding a severed head in his hand, slowly putting it back on his neck.
"To be able to take one of my attacks, I have to admit, as an Emissary, you are indeed qualified" the Dark Executioner said.
Liu Ping strapped the Warden Saber to his back, casually pulled it out and held the Baina Blade tightly, speaking:
"I know you're very strong, but your strength has already surpassed my understanding, something isn't right"
"Ah? What's wrong? "the Dark Executioner asked.
"Your strength far surpasses all of us Nightmares, and this is only the second Nightmare Card: Nightmare Crypt, who exactly are you?" Liu Ping asked.
"As I said, when you're about to die, we can talk about this" the Dark Executioner said.
He swung his arm and attacked from afar.
The boundless fog condensed once again, coming from all directions and bombarding Liu Ping with all its might.
Boom!
The entire Inner World split open, Liu Ping flew out of the Inner World like a cannonball.
He instantly penetrated the entire Nightmare Crypt and was sent into the dark void, falling towards the bottom of the Divine Pillar.
In an instant.
He suddenly fell into a certain world on the Void Pillar.
This was a high-level civilization world filled with Star Spirit buildings, all kinds of high-level life forms shuttled back and forth in the sky, their bodies emitting a faint light.
As soon as Liu Ping stood still, he immediately pulled out his Baina Blade and slashed forward.
A blazing blade aura connected heaven and earth, cutting the world in half, and in the center of the blade, the Dark Executioner's figure quietly appeared.
It raised a hand and gently pushed the blade aura.
The blade aura suddenly deviated from its position, cutting past its side.
"Not bad sword skills, I can feel your power probing my weakness, but it's useless, you're just like other living beings in front of me, just ants," the Dark Executioner said.
"But you've been exposed" Liu Ping said.
The Dark Executioner was about to attack, but it suddenly paused and said with interest: "I've been exposed?"
"Yes, I'm guessing that you're not a subordinate of the Great One, because the gap between us and you is too obvious" Liu Ping said.
"But other than waiting for death in despair, what else can you do?" the Dark Executioner said.
Liu Ping glanced at the interface in front of him indifferently.
The interface that belonged to the Emissary.
He reached out his hand, and all the Nightmare Cards returned to his hand.
"Sacrifice"
He spat out a word.
In an instant, all the monsters on the Nightmare Cards let out a painful howl.
Flames quietly appeared and burned the cards to ashes.
Lines of notifications appeared on the interface that belonged to the Emissary:
[You've released Soul Sacrifice]
[You're summoning the Great One, report the situation here to him]
A strange fluctuation became stronger and stronger.
It surrounded Liu Ping and radiated in all directions.
