Purgatory Artist-Chapter 424: Scale
Chapter 424 - Scale
The Dark Executioner unleashed a punch from afar.
The boundless tide of darkness surged forward and struck Liu Ping's body.
The entire world was destroyed in an instant.
Liu Ping fell downwards and soon entered another world filled with desolation.
Even so, this world couldn't withstand that attack and was instantly reduced to ashes, scattering into dust and debris.
Liu Ping continued to fall, crashing through five worlds on the Divine Pillar before he finally stopped himself.
A line of burning text quickly appeared:
[The power of 'Rotation' on your body continues to exert its power, causing all attacks to be absorbed by the void of space and the world]
Liu Ping spun around and unleashed a slash towards the sky.
A world filled with golden light appeared, within it was a tall tower filled with beings wielding blades, all of them swinging their blades towards the sky.
Lawless Heaven and Earth – Secret Slash Third Style!
The entire world began to ripple like a boundless ocean, sweeping the Dark Executioner who was right behind it into it.
Everything became silent.
Liu Ping panted for a bit, then sternly declared: "I am the holder of the Mission, I hereby summon you to descend!"
Boom — —
Light and fog were enshrouded behind him, turning into overlapping silhouettes.
A gigantic image gradually became clear.
It looked like a giant, but its head was hollow, a dreamy light was being emitted from it, illuminating the endless void and the world.
Countless vertical pupils silently appeared within the light, silently staring at Liu Ping.
"What is it ..."
The giant spoke in a deep and almost eternal voice, its voice stopped here, manifesting an endless stream of nightmare runes in the void of space.
Liu Ping pointed his blade towards the sky and spoke: "There's a very strange fellow here, I suspect that it will ruin your plans"
In the void of space, the countless vertical pupils moved at the same time, looking towards where Liu Ping was pointing.
A black figure then appeared.
The Dark Executioner.
It hovered in the air with an expression of reminiscence.
"What an outstanding slash, I've destroyed countless civilizations, but I've never seen a slash that could reach such a level of skill — —"
"I enjoyed it for a bit longer, that's why I'm late, my apologies"
The giant behind Liu Ping lightly floated into the air and spoke: "So it was you"
The Dark Executioner said, "Yes, I came here earlier than you. This divine pillar is mine."
The giant was silent for a while, then said, "This body of yours ... contains one-tenth of your power. I need the method of your descent."
"I want this divine pillar," the Dark Executioner said.
"You want to exchange the entire divine pillar for a single Descent Technique?" The giant sneered.
The Dark Executioner spread out his hands and said, "Among all living beings, what existence can resist even a tenth of our power?"
The giant remained silent.
"Once you've learned my Descent Spell, you won't have to wait for the Tide of Nightmares. Just like me, you can hunt souls from the Divine Pillars you discover," the Dark Executioner said.
"This divine pillar is different from the others." The giant said.
"What's the difference?" the Dark Executioner asked.
" It is taller, more prosperous " the giant replied.
"So what?"
"Leave me 30%."
"Deal."
After the Dark Executioner finished speaking, he looked down at Liu Ping and said, "Your Emessary is not bad."
The giant was also very pleased and looked down at Liu Ping: "You've done very well, what should I reward you with?"
"Great entity, if you are willing to grant me the Crypt of Nightmares, I would feel extremely honored and moved" Liu Ping replied.
"Let me think about it " the giant spoke with a resounding voice.
Liu Ping bowed and silently waited. Suddenly, the giant's hateful voice resounded in his mind:
"This guy stole the Crypt of Nightmares and tried to set up an ambush in my Nightmare Card to deal with me before I reached the Divine Pillar."
That's more like it!
The Dark Executioner was obviously hiding in the Crypt of Nightmares, waiting for the right time to ambush the giant.
— — -how could a peerless entity like the giant just let this go?
What he said just now was just a facade, what came next was the crucial part.
Liu Ping didn't show anything on his face, but silently replied in his mind:
"Great entity, how should we deal with this?"
The giant's voice came again: " There is an East XZ that specializes in controlling Sequence Spirits in the crypt, it is a piece of black scale "
Liu Ping carefully asked: "What does it do?"
The giant uttered a chilling chuckle and spoke telepathically:
" I have hidden a sealing technique of torture on the scale, a Nightmare Divinity that I unleash with 100% of my power "
Liu Ping asked: "Sir, did this guy not notice?"
The giant muttered: " Its descending body only has 10% of its original body's power, enough to kill living beings, but it cannot detect the sealing technique of torture that I have placed with 100% of my power "
"— — -What you need to do is to find the room numbered 11-1, the black scale is inside. Take it and chant the incantation to my enemy: "
"Nightmare Eternal "
"I understand, Your Excellency." Liu Ping understood tacitly.
— — -he didn't mention a crucial thing.
This method is already useless.
In order to take control of the world spirit, the Dark Executioner had already obtained the black scale!
In the air, the giant abruptly spoke:
"Go, my emissary, you may choose one item from the Crypt of Nightmares, I will — — "
Boom!
The giant's projection was directly destroyed by a certain power.
— — -Dark Executioner!
It laughed maniacally and raised its voice: " You think I don't know? You must have hidden something in the Crypt of Nightmares! "
" You really think I would give you 30% of the soul on this Divine Pillar? "
" Ahahahaha, you know very well that we would have to fight sooner or later! "
Suddenly.
The Dark Executor's voice stopped and stared coldly at Liu Ping.
"Am I going to die?" Liu Ping asked.
The Dark Executioner replied with a mocking tone: " No, you have to tell me first, what is its backup plan? "
Liu Ping sighed and replied: "I'm sorry, the only thing I can reveal is that you've already won this round"
" Won? " the Dark Executioner was surprised.
" Indeed, I will probably have to think of a new way, using human terms, I'll have to start over "
A Nightmare Card appeared in his hand.
— — -destined stepping stone.
At the same time, Liu Ping unsheathed the Warden Blade on his back and swung it at the void of space!
The Nightmare Card instantly disappeared.
Lines of burning words popped out:
[You've activated the Warden Blade's ability: Life Protection]
[Space-Time has begun to peel]
[Attention, your strength has been raised to Occultism, you can fully control this Blade's power]
[You've designated a period of Space-Time to peel!]
The Blade descended.
The Dark Executioner abruptly roared in anger: "NO! Time, you should listen to my orders — — "
It suddenly disappeared from Liu Ping's vision.
The entire world faded away with it.
Everything around Liu Ping felt like a fleeting view, as if it was an illusion, it quickly turned into a rapid flow of light in front of Liu Ping's eyes and disappeared without a trace.
Heaven and earth became empty, all things ceased to exist.
Liu Ping was in the turbulent tide of time. He was pulled by an extremely strong force and flew towards the direction of the flow of time with all his might.
A flash.
The entire world reappeared.
Liu Ping only felt that his feet were propped up against two walls to prevent himself from falling.
There was no light.
Only a dim, crimson fog filled the air.
Liu Ping looked around and slowly realized where he was.
He was stuck in the gap between two walls, unable to see the top or bottom. There were only crimson crystals to his left and right, other than that, he couldn't see anything else.
This was the moment when he first entered the Nightmare Crypt!
"Heroic Spirit UI" he called out.
[I'm here] the Sequence responded.
"Immediately search for the surrounding Sequences and tell her that I'm here" Liu Ping said.
[Please wait, this Sequence is working on it]
A few moments later.
A line of text suddenly appeared in the void of space:
[Who are you?]
Liu Ping replied: "I am Liu Ping"
Another line of text appeared: [How can I trust you?]
"I was the one who turned you into a spirit of the world" Liu Ping said: "We didn't win last time, but this time, I can see hope"
A few moments later.
A line of text appeared again:
[What should we do?]
