Chapter 128 Void Imprisonment, Devouring Angels

The siren-like monster, facing the immensely powerful greatsword of light, let out a strange hiss, as if mocking this seemingly invincible attack.

Its scale-covered body suddenly twisted and deformed, and the surrounding space cracked open with countless dark purple lines like a shattered mirror.

Void energy seeped from those cracks, forming twisted "barriers" in front of it.

"boom--"

The moment the giant sword of light struck this spatial "barrier," it distorted.

The sword light, which was originally slashing straight down, seemed to be twisted by an invisible hand, and the sword body was twisted and deflected at a strange angle.

Ultimately, the entire attack was completely deflected, slashing diagonally towards the coastline several kilometers away.

The entire coastline was cleaved open by the residual power of the lightsaber, and seawater rushed in, creating towering waves.

"How is that possible?" The Saintly Shadow's pupils constricted sharply.

Although they are not true forbidden spells, with the blessing of the angelic soul embryo, his attacks, after casting the secret technique, far exceed those of super-level magic.

In the past, this attack would have been enough to severely injure a monarch-level demon.

However, his attack trajectory was distorted by that strange dark purple "barrier." He could sense that it contained spatial magic, but it was far greater than normal spatial magic.

Then the sea suddenly boiled, and the monster tilted its head back and let out a piercing scream.

In an instant, a giant wave rose from the ground, its waves churning with an eerie purplish-black light, twisting and writhing like living things.

"The Holy One has arrived!"

The powerful Saint Shadow dared not be negligent and fully activated the Angel Soul Embryo within his body.

With a clear, resonant sound, four dazzling wings of light unfurled from his back—the symbol of Exusiai.

A pure radiance formed a spherical barrier around him, which collided violently with the onrushing purple waves.

"boom--"

Amidst the deafening explosions, the energies of light and darkness clashed violently, while the eerie purplish-black color continuously eroded the divine power.

The powerful Saint Shadow gritted his teeth, and the feathers on his wings began to ignite with intense flames.

"Break it for me!"

With a roar, the holy flames on his four wings surged suddenly, breaking through the opponent's attack.

At the same time, a spear formed purely from the power of light took shape in the air.

"The Gun of Judgment!"

The light gun shot out, and the dark purple barrier in front of the sea monster shattered like fragile glass the moment it touched the tip of the gun.

The spear thrust continued unabated, piercing straight through the sea monster's chest, and holy flames instantly enveloped its massive body.

However, the expected screams did not occur.

The sea monster, which had been engulfed by the golden flames, suddenly froze in a strange motion.

Its skin began to wriggle strangely, like shedding its skin, and the entire outer shell suddenly fell off.

The purple shell rapidly carbonized in the flames, while the main body detached itself intact—the creature's size shrank by nearly half, yet it appeared even more agile and terrifying.

This is an alien creature, its entire body covered in a deep purple carapace with strange spiral patterns on its surface.

Its head is a sharp inverted triangle, and its entire face has only one large vertical pupil with an eerie purplish-red color. When the pupil contracts, it splits into three lobes.

Below the eyes is a gaping maw that almost covers the entire face, and the right limb has been mutated into a huge pincer-like organ with serrated, sharp edges.

Its entire body was shrouded in a faint purple halo, and the surrounding air was slightly distorted by its presence.

"Not good!" A warning signal suddenly arose in the heart of the Saint Shadow expert, but it was too late.

Suddenly, the monster's huge pincer on its right arm vanished into thin air. At the same time, a purple crack suddenly appeared in the space less than a meter behind it—the vanished pincer emerged from it like lightning!
"Pfft——"

Suddenly, the giant pincers snapped shut, their sharp blades piercing the most vulnerable membrane of the left wing, and then continuing forward with undiminished force, severing the two main wing bones.

The severed wings instantly lost their divine radiance, turning into specks of golden light that drifted through the air.

The Saint Shadow expert let out a painful groan and gushed out golden blood.

Even more terrifying, eerie purplish-black patterns began to spread from the broken wing root, and this pollution from the void spread wildly along his blood vessels.

He was horrified to discover that his divine power was being rapidly disintegrated by some unknown force, and his once freely flowing magic was now completely ineffective.

【Void Imprisonment】, an ability possessed by high-level Void Insects, which can temporarily seal their power.

The angel was devastated to find that all the muscles in his body were out of control and he could not move.

But the figure of the void worm gradually blurred and disappeared from his sight, leaving a series of unsettling spatial ripples in the air.

He could hear his own heartbeat slowing down, and he could feel the cold sweat sliding down his back, but he couldn't move, not even a finger.

This situation was more agonizing than any form of torture; his body was unable to move, but his consciousness remained fully active.

Suddenly, a bone-chilling cold shot up my spine and straight to the back of my head.

That was an instinctive warning developed through countless life-and-death trials—death was just around the corner!
“Crack—”

Without warning, a purplish-black crack appeared in the air in front of me, like a canvas being torn apart by an invisible hand.

The Void Worm's ferocious maw shot out from the crack with lightning speed, its enormous mouth, covered with spiraling teeth, magnified infinitely before his eyes.

The last thing he saw was the purple tentacles wriggling deep in his throat, and his own terrified reflection in the countless tiny compound eyes.

"Gurgle—"

With a chilling swallowing sound, his vision was completely plunged into darkness.

This Holy Shadow Angel was eaten by the Void Worm.

Countless golden patterns appeared on the surface of the Void Worm's carapace, representing the angelic power being digested.

Then its shape began to twist and change, and its shell was reshaped like a melting wax figure.

First, four wings of light pierced through his back and unfolded, followed by long limbs, and finally the face that belonged to a Saint Shadow expert.

When the transformation was complete, the "person" standing on the sea had the same eyes as the original.

He gracefully flexed his newborn fingers, a strange smile playing on his lips.

Witnessing this horrifying scene, the remaining high-level mages involuntarily took several steps back.

Everyone's face was filled with disbelief and terror.

Such an ability was unheard of to them.

The Holy Shadow Angel, who was fighting another void monster that resembled a giant squid, suddenly turned around.

"Retreat! Retreat immediately!" he roared, his voice trembling noticeably.

The "newborn holy figure" raised its arm, and four wings of light suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden radiance.

"Holy Light. Judgment."

Familiar angelic incantations emanated from his mouth, and in an instant, countless arrows of light rained down from the sky, heading towards the surviving high-level mages in the distance.
