Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 441 The Power Above All
Looking at Malenia slowly walking towards him, Bai Shi sighed softly.

Bai Shi knew that with his current strength, it was impossible for him to have a hearty battle with Marennia like in the game.

There was even no reason to go to the sacred tree and wake up the sleeping Malenia for a fight.

It seems that the only reason to go to the depths of the sacred tree is to help Millicent meet Malenia.

If Malenia doesn't transform into the goddess of corruption, her strength is really not enough.

Try as you might, you can't even defeat Ratan.

Only after transforming into the Goddess of Corruption did she possess the strength worthy of the name of the Goddess.

But Bai Shi also didn't want to see Marlenya transformed into a goddess of corruption.

No matter what, Bai Shi was still extremely looking forward to this battle and to Marlennia.

I look forward to the collision between Millicent's will and Marenia's thoughts, to her regaining her consciousness, and to the ending where she does not turn into a corrupt goddess...

Therefore, Bai Shi’s best expectation is to let Millicent grow up and let her fight against the normal Malenia.

In the clash of swords, witness growth and unyielding will, and awaken Marlennia's determination to fight corruption.

It would be best if there was a happy ending, Millicent gained growth and recognition, Marenia regained her self-esteem and will, and everyone made dumplings happily...

Bai Shi had expected many scenarios, but he had never thought that they would meet in this way.

Bai Shi silently grasped his weapon and abandoned all his past imaginations.

This is his problem, the most inappropriate thing in the world... probably being expecting things without permission and being disappointed without permission.

So now we just need to treat reality normally and fight well.

Looking at Marlennia, Bai Shi could sense the other party's strength.

Unexpectedly, Marennia's strength was much stronger than Bai Shi expected.

As for the Flower Bud Saint, although Bai Shi had never seen such a strange creature, her strength was not bad.

Needless to say, the incarnations of the two shadow trees are also quite powerful.

Obviously, after Michaela found the incarnation of the Shadow Tree for support, she felt much more confident.

As the other half of the golden tree in the past, the power of the shadow tree is also quite huge.

Even though it has now separated from the golden tree and can no longer produce blessings, it still contains terrifying energy.

When the Shadow Tree collapsed and shattered in the past, the remaining blessings of the Shadow Tree were even able to cover all creatures in the Shadow Land, greatly increasing their strength.

Even though there is very little remaining power now, it is not a problem at all to improve the strength of a few people.

Although the other side had more people and stronger forces and had formed a lineup of the Four Heavenly Kings, Bai Shi was not panicked.

Even though they were strengthened by the power of the Shadow Tree, they were still no match for the enemy.

What made Bai Shi feel a little strange was that he did not see a figure that should have appeared here.

There are five of the Four Heavenly Kings. Isn’t that common sense?
After the battle festival ended, Mikaela took away the soul of his promised king, Latan.

Now that he had Monger's body and Latan's soul in his hands, it was quite obvious what he wanted to do.

It was a bit surprising that Marennia didn't see him even though she came.

If Michaela succeeded in stitching him back together, her strength would definitely not be comparable to that of the normal Malenia.

Monger has a body strengthened by the Invisible Mother, while Latan himself is a leader among demigods with powerful martial arts.

Such an existence should be the most important and powerful fighting force in Michaela's hands. It is impossible to let only Malenia fight against Bai Shi.

But Bai Shi immediately figured it out.

Right now, the Stitched Monster is probably pulling Michaela inside the Tower of God, so there is no way they can appear at the same time.

In that case, after dealing with Marennia and the others, Bai Shi will naturally go in to find him.

Bai Shi looked at the four powerful enemies in front of him. A silver mist emerged around him, and Ashimi's figure slowly solidified.

Since the other side has a lot of people, let Ashmi come out and move around.

"The two shadow tree incarnations over there are now in your hands."

Ashimi held onto Eperia and stretched her body a little.

Looking at the reinforcements that Michaela called in front of him, especially the two huge incarnations of shadow trees, Ashmi's face also showed excitement.

Guys of this strength are not often seen in border areas.

It is because of this special place, Shadow Land, blessed by the Shadow Tree that there are so many of them.

Ashimi's strength is linked to Baishi's strength. As the host's strength increases, her strength also rises.

So after Bai Shi's strength broke through, Ashimi had no chance to come out most of the time, and there were not many opponents that could allow her to move.

It seemed like he did nothing and won without any effort, but he became incredibly strong.

I have to say that sometimes choices are more important than hard work.

Ashimi chuckled, and an extremely thick meteorite iron dragon hunting armor that was exactly the same as Bai Shi's condensed on his body.

"Wow, four guys of this strength coming at once?"

"It's really rare. I won't be polite then."

Completely ignoring Marlennia and the Bud Saint, Ashimi leaped up and slammed heavily into the stage of the divine beast in Tower Town.

Landing on the battlefield of the past mythical beast the Lion Dance, Ashimi was immediately surrounded by the incarnation of the Shadow Tree.

The incarnation of a shadow tree spread out a large area of pitch-black thorns, and the thorns of rejection overwhelmed Ashmi's figure from all directions.

The other incarnation raised a large area of shadowy fog around it.

The golden light covered by the shadow slowly emerged in the air, condensing into dark golden gravel, covering the sky and the earth.

Ashimi danced with the double-headed sword in his hand. The blade fluttered and the two-colored vortex of light surged like a tide, instantly disintegrating all the massive attacks that came towards him.

Even the shadow tree incarnation, whose roots were firmly rooted in the ground, was being swept towards the center by the huge force.

The next moment, Ashmi's figure moved again, and came to the front of the head of the incarnation of a shadow tree, and slashed heavily at the huge flower.

The sword blade flashed past, and the huge shadow wheel flower was instantly cut off in half, and the deep golden liquid sprayed all over the ground.
-
Bai Shi withdrew his gaze and no longer paid attention to the battle over there.

With his power, Ashmi's victory is inevitable, the only difference is whether he can play longer or faster.

Now it was time for him to play with the two people in front of him.

Yes, just for fun.

Bai Shi admitted that she was not weak, but it was a pity that she met him.

Even though the current Malenia has been strengthened a lot, she is still just a toy after all.

Marlennia raised the sword in her hand, leaned forward and rushed towards Bai Shi.

Her figure seemed to be flying close to the ground, like an osprey locking onto its prey, precise and graceful.

There were no fancy sword moves. After approaching rapidly, the tip of Marlenya's sword stabbed straight into Bai Shi's heart.

Extreme speed brings extreme sharpness.

She is Mikaela's sharp blade, and she vows to become the sharpest sword in the world.

Any defense will affect the sharpness of the sword.

The sword only needs to move forward courageously.

But the sharp edge was ruthlessly blocked by a heavy shield.

In a flash, the extremely sharp tip of the knife pierced the shield of the dragon hunter's shield, but it only penetrated slightly.

As Marennia retreated and pulled out the blade, only a tiny gap was left on the shield.

Bai Shi looked at Marlenya calmly, with no intention of launching a counterattack, just waiting for her next move.

Despite the failed attack, Marenya was not discouraged.

She had anticipated this situation, after all, it was just a test sword.

Marennia rushed forward again, attacking again and again with swift and agile movements.

Although she had been sleeping under the sacred tree for a long time and was unaware of the situation in the outside world, Michaela also told Malenia all the information about the battle in advance.

Especially Bai Shi, a powerful opponent that cannot be bypassed at all.

Being able to establish a new order on the broken border area shows its strength, which is beyond words. All the fragment kings can understand its value.

To become a Shard King and a Split King, all one needs is a demigod identity and an allocated Great Rune.

But restoring order is something that demigods cannot imagine and can only be done by a true king.

Establishing order is countless times more difficult than destroying it.

Without the power and charm to command everything, one will only be backfired by those lofty ideals.

Marlenya thought she had taken this battle seriously enough, but the development of the situation made her heart sink completely.

Her invincible dexterity and agility were completely ineffective in front of Bai Shi. With each attack, Bai Shi seemed to be able to predict her actions and react in advance.

No matter from which direction the attack was launched, Marennia would always face that cold and heavy shield.

At this moment, the Dragon Hunter Shield seemed to have turned into a wall of sighs and a great wall of despair, blocking the dreams of Malenia and Michaela like a natural moat.

Marennia's mentality gradually changed, and she began to show anxiety, which should not have appeared in a battle.

Facing this insurmountable wall, no matter how advanced your sword skills are, they are of any use.

She already knew that her opponent in this battle was a true king like Ge Fulei, but she didn't expect the gap between them to be so huge.

Even though he had been strengthened by the blessing of the Shadow Tree and his strength far exceeded his past self, he couldn't even get past the shield.

Marlenya took a deep breath, raised the prosthetic sword in her hand high, and leapt into the air, then stopped.

Following closely was the vast flash of sword light that filled the sky.

Water birds are dancing!

As if her body was being carried by the flowing sword blade, Marennia's figure floated in the air, as if she really had nimble wings.

Amidst the elegance, the dense sword light was cold and sharp, blooming with deadly beauty.

Compared to Millicent's sword dance, the move used by Marlenia was even more murderous, and its power could not be generalized.

The sharp sword moves continued to strike out, leaving deep sword marks on the dragon hunting shield that could not be circumvented, and the weak areas on the edge were even slightly cracked.

With the final sword strike, Marennia used the unfinished momentum to quickly move her body and instantly appeared behind Bai Shi.

But what greeted her was still the shield covered with sword marks.

However, this time the shield was directed towards her.

The powerful blow hit Malenia's body solidly, and her body was immediately blown away by the shield, flying backwards in the air.

Marennia stepped on the air repeatedly, and the air seemed to be stepped out of shape, and finally she stabilized her body out of thin air.

Looking at the white consciousness that was still standing there without moving an inch, Marennia's body trembled slightly.

The Water Bird Dance, which used all its strength, was still easily blocked, which made Malenia realize how terrifying the power of Baizhi was.

Marennia had never seen an opponent like this before.

Only then did she realize that Bai Shi was just standing there, silently moving his shield, leaving her helpless.

Under the continuous flowing sword technique like waves, Bai Shi stood still like a reef.

Even... there was no counterattack at all.

She didn't use any weapons to attack, and the shield strike just now was just a light teasing of her, without even causing any injury.

Marlennia could feel that Bai Shi seemed to ignore her attack.

If you use a weapon to attack her, she will probably lose her standing qualification at the first encounter.

Marennia thought she could understand the power of the king, but it was actually an area she could not comprehend at all.

So, is this the power needed to be king?

Bai Shi moved the shield away and spoke to Marlenya in a calm tone:

"That move just now can only be considered average."

"Although the power and momentum are both overwhelming, and the exquisiteness of the Flowing Water Sword Technique is impeccable, but..."

"Without the most precious will, your sword is so weak and powerless."

"If Mikaela's blade is only this sharp, you have no right to talk to me about the future."

Bai Shi looked at Malenia. If possible, he really didn't want her to fall into corruption.

That resolute will should have continued to shine in her.

Unfortunately, she was born with a broken heart, which made her pin everything on Michaela.

Marennia remained silent and did not refute Bai Shi's words.

Without chasing after Marlennia, Bai Shi looked around himself silently.

Before he knew it, the scarlet corruption butterfly had appeared silently beside him, gently enveloping the entire space.

Scarlet butterfly, those are the wings of the goddess of corruption.

In the past, the 'Bud Saint' Romina had a telepathic connection with the group of butterflies and comforted them since they had no owners.

And now, the Bud Saint also followed the guidance of the butterflies and came to the side of the Goddess of Corruption.

The thin wings behind the Flower Bud Saint fluttered slightly, carrying up the huge body that was a mixture of countless insects.

She spun slowly, as if performing a ritual dance from the past to dispel disasters, gently calling upon countless butterflies.

The first butterfly shattered gently next to Bai Shi, causing a chain reaction, and the butterflies shattered one after another, spreading corruption.

A blazing flame instantly rose up from Bai Shi's body, and the corrupt aura and the remains of the butterfly were easily shaken away, and then turned into powder under the high temperature.

Bai Shi turned his head slightly and looked at the terrifying figure of the Flower Bud Saint.

I don’t know what happened to him, but that guy is full of corrupt elements.

The giant insect merged with her body, with only the upper half of her body barely maintaining its human form wrapped in petals.

Beneath her, a giant scorpion was dragging behind her, and in front of her was a giant centipede with its head held high.

Two completely different insects are connected to her body, with thin butterfly wings behind them.

In front of her, even Greg's limb graft would be inferior.

The Flower Bud Saint rushed towards Bai Shi, holding a blade transformed from a flower bud.

At the same time, the giant centipede's head and the scorpion's sharp tail stinger under her attacked together.

The giant centipede bit at the shield, and after firmly fixing itself on it, it suddenly wrapped its body around the shield, restricting Bai Shi's movements.

The sharp poison needle took the opportunity to bypass the shield and stabbed towards the white consciousness behind him.

Bai Shi smiled slightly and casually pinched the tail needle that was flowing with venom.

He is the strong one, not the shield.

However, at this moment, the body of the Flower Bud Saint began to turn strangely with the help of the two insects, and found an angle to cross the shield.

A poisonous needle pierced out from under her body and unexpectedly stabbed Bai Shi.

The gleaming poisonous needles on the scorpion's tail are just a means for her to paralyze her opponent.

Beneath her strangely twisted body, there is a needle from a poisonous bee hidden.

That is her most deadly weapon.

The huge poisonous stinger pierced into Bai Shi's body and broke directly in it.

The sting of a poisonous bee is a killing move that can only be used once, so it is extremely powerful.

As the poison needle penetrated the armor and pierced into the body, Bai Shi's body began to become paralyzed.

There is no pain, and even some warmth that makes people indulge in it.

However, behind this illusion, toxins were rapidly spreading through the blood vessels, and corruption was constantly invading Bai Shi's body.

A fishy, sweet and warm smell appeared between Bai Shi's mouth and nose, and black poisonous blood slowly flowed down.

Bai Shi laughed softly, but remained calm and pushed the Flower Bud Saint away.

"interesting."

"I've never seen this move before."

The next moment, a fierce flame suddenly burned on Bai Shi's body.

The poisonous sting that had invaded the body, along with the body infected by the corrupt toxin, was burned to ashes in the remaining fire.

The dragon hunter's armor was lit with sparks of fire, and the helmet that looked like a roaring dragon's head was also lit up by the residual fire, and the blazing eyes locked onto the prey.

The slightly damaged cloak trembled slightly under the attack of the two men. Now, Bai Shi finally became serious.

Between heaven and earth, an indescribable terrifying pressure suddenly descended.

Nature was changing with Bai Shi's mood, with dark clouds gathering and strong winds howling.

The entire Tower of God was shaken by the pressure, and the authority of the God worshipped by the Horned People no longer existed.

The ancient and sacred stairs began to crumble under Bai Shi's feet, and the majesty of all gods was insignificant in front of him.

The collapsed stairs separated Malenia and Romina, turning the already inaccessible distance into an insurmountable chasm.

Bai Shi raised the ancient iron meteorite sword for the first time, and pointed the tip of the sword arrogantly at Malenia and Romina, looking down on the two people who placed their hopes on corruption.

Even corruption itself should fear him!
"If the future is yours, then prove it to me."

"See for yourself—the power that transcends everything."
