You are all my wings!

"After that, I will accelerate this explosion with the magic of Cold Moon Flowing Light and throw it into the very core of this elemental vortex. What do you think will happen?"

The halo around Lyon's fingertips grew increasingly dim, and the immense power it contained became even more astonishing.

Chapter 505 Astalia: One more minute!

Shitikos was silent for a moment, then a smile bloomed on her delicate face.

"Your bluffing skills are not bad, but even if you really created this so-called [Time Particle Blast] magic, you are only at the seventh level. You have already used up your magic power on the Poems. How much magic power do you have left to activate this move?"

"That's not necessarily true."

Lyon laughed:

"You may not know, but when I was at the sixth rank, my magic power was already comparable to that of the tenth rank. Now that I have been advancing in rank, I have more than enough magic power."

As he spoke, the halo around his fingertips expanded, unleashing a magical power that rapidly restored his abilities as he spoke.

Immediately, the surrounding elemental vortex expanded its absorption range again, surging into the aura at his fingertips and forming an even more turbulent and terrifying elemental pressure.

"Ok?"

Shitikos looked surprised: "You really have this magic?"

"It's not just magic; the strength of my move has probably exceeded your expectations."

Lyon laughed:

"Admittedly, if this were outside, this move would not cause a big commotion, but here, combined with the characteristics of the solidification time of the elemental vortex, it will definitely cause a huge upheaval. At that time, even if you don't want to, 'she' will definitely turn her attention here."

Shi Tikos's eyes flickered slightly: "Did you gain all this power after using the divine might of us to advance?"

"No, these are abilities I already possessed. It's just that I experienced a leap after advancing in rank. The improvement that Divine Might brought me was mostly in the poems, with only a small part strengthening my physical body and soul."

Lyon said.

As he spoke, the halo around his fingertips spread again, its color becoming increasingly obscure.

With two promotions, his skills and attributes naturally experienced a leap forward.

In particular, core professional skills have also been elevated.

【主要属性：窥命力264/神圣能量容纳量272/精神力667/生命力470/魔力量1136/体力703/力量603/敏捷686】

Spirit Power +172, Vitality +158, Magic Power +132, Stamina +102, Strength +109, Agility +113

With two advancements, and a significant leap from the sixth to the seventh rank, his attributes naturally skyrocketed.

The growth rate far exceeded that of before.

Then there are the professional skills of a con artist.

[Material Deception: The efficiency of material deception has been greatly enhanced again, and most material deceptions do not require the essence of illusion and reality but still have long-term stable effects. If one has detailed knowledge of the substance, it can be solidified at the level of hundreds to thousands of years; substances with divine properties cannot be defrauded or solidified for the time being, but can be defrauded to a small extent.]

[Life Fraud: The level of life fraud has been significantly enhanced, reaching the core of life's coding, tampering with coded matter, altering its life form, and granting it more operational commands.]

Next came the enhancement brought about by the illusory and conceptual knowledge that he had focused on absorbing during this advancement.

[Non-real fraud is elevated to conceptual fraud: the precision and efficiency of fraud against non-real entities are greatly improved, and it can delve deeper into deceiving more subtle spiritual entities such as the soul, memory, and consciousness. It can also deceive more non-real concepts, making them manifest as real objects. The effectiveness of manifestation depends on the concept's worldly acceptance and the amount of spiritual power it is imbued with.]

[From Lies to Truth: The efficiency of extracting the essence of truth and falsehood is greatly improved, and every ten essences of truth and falsehood can be converted into conceptual essence.]

This is a description of the enhanced effects of the four great skills of a con artist; it's like upgrading from a slingshot to a cannon.

His so-called "time-particle blast" was naturally not created.

The halo at her fingertips was actually a manifestation of the magic she had created through conceptual deception, giving it temporary power.

It's essentially used to bluff people.

However, when combined with the skill enhancement brought by the advancement of the elemental mage, it has already become quite effective.

[Material Element Creation: Extracts inherent elements, greatly enhancing magical effects, and can also extract elements from the void]

[Material Miracle Alchemy: Can create matter from nothing and materialize it; the duration of this materialization depends on the caster's magical power]

The combination of material miracles and alchemy with conceptual deception gave him the ability to extract "time particles" out of thin air.

Therefore, the "Time Particle Blast" theory he created does indeed have a theoretical and practical basis.

Because of these fundamentals, it is much easier to commit fraud.

[Elemental Freeze: Greatly enhances the effect of Elemental Freeze, allowing the character to remain frozen for a period of time without mana after casting the spell.]

These are the gains he made in terms of skills and attributes during this advancement.

As for the Psalms, this growth was even more enormous.

The Goddess Redeemer has already demonstrated its power in actual combat, temporarily boosting Astalia's strength by one level and granting her the ability to temporarily possess her Thirteen Modes. With these two benefits, it's no wonder that the Lords of the Forbidden Zones are vying for it.

If Lyon saw someone else doing this, he would definitely be tempted too.

This is like a child carrying gold through the market; it's impossible not to attract attention.

At this moment, as the halo around Leon's fingertips expanded, Shitikos revealed a thoughtful expression.

"No wonder you were able to obtain such a wealth of poems at this stage. Your level of creative magic is indeed impressive, remarkable. You do have the ability to interfere with this material singularity."

She clapped her hands, which were covered by black gauze gloves.

"I can temporarily acknowledge your equal relationship with me, and then what? You want to cooperate with me to fight against that guy?"

"Yes."

Lyon said:

"Your Excellency, why don't you stop pulling me aside for now? We are natural partners. If you are willing to cooperate, I can bless you with my poems at the appropriate time."

Shitikos pondered for a moment, then said:

"That's not enough. Your intimidation of me is only limited to this area. Once we leave, you're mine for the taking. As for the light spirit beside you, it's undeniable that she is exceptionally talented, becoming the first true god among the intelligent races. That's impressive, but a true god is not only one major rank away from me, but also lacks the power of a forbidden zone. How long can your poems bless her?"

Lyon felt a slight stirring in his heart; she seemed easier to talk to than he had expected.

However, she is also clearly the type who is good at weighing the pros and cons.

I've heard that the rulers of forbidden zones are all eccentric, so perhaps she's one of the relatively normal ones?

No, we can't let our guard down just because she seems easy to talk to.

"Your Excellency, you obviously cannot directly interfere with Astalia's acquisition of this core authority. In that case, as long as we maintain this stalemate, time will eventually come. Once Astalia becomes the ruler of the forbidden zone, what will you do then?"

"Even if she takes this power, she cannot immediately become the ruler of the forbidden zone."

Shitikos said with a smile:

"However, if she can truly take control of this forbidden zone, I can acknowledge that you two are qualified to cooperate with me on an equal footing. But then again, I can also seize control of this forbidden zone. Why should I give that opportunity to you?"

As she spoke, the phantom of the River Styx appeared outside her body, flowing slowly forward.

This phantom was not as grand and magnificent as before; it was not large in scale, about the size of an ordinary long river.

But the river's surface is deep and mysterious, carrying emptiness and meaning, quickly dispelling the interference of the elemental vortex, seemingly slow but actually fast.

Judging by the direction, it points directly to the core authority of the singularity, which is still in an undefended state.

"You're just wasting time chatting with me, little do you know I'm happy for you to stall for time, so I can mobilize my forbidden zone power to a small extent and seize this authority?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the illusory image of the Styx River approached the outer edge of the singularity's core and slowly seeped inward.

"Your Excellency is quite shrewd; you don't seem like the lord of a forbidden zone whose strength far surpasses ours."

“I have seen too many geniuses, so I will not underestimate any genius. So rest assured, I will use the most meticulous plan to target you.”

Shitikos smiled slightly and continued to activate the power of the forbidden zone, which seemed to have slowly seeped into the outer edge of the core authority.

Lyon's heart tightened slightly. It seemed that although Shitikos was wary of the Goddess of Origin, she still wanted to risk mobilizing the power of the forbidden zone.

It should be noted that the Forbidden Zone of Creation is comparable to a small world, while the core of this singularity is the core of another small world. If the two collide, it will surely alarm the Goddess of Origin.

However, by concentrating the power of the forbidden zone in this way, she has the potential to seize the core authority without alerting the Goddess of Origin.

He then used telepathy to ask Astalia, "How is the progress? How much longer will it take?"

She replied telepathically, "95% complete, one more minute needed."

Lyon responded, "Then leave the rest of the time to me."

Although the remaining 40% was much more difficult, with his talent, Astalia was much more efficient this time than last time.

She asked, "What other options do you have? If she interferes, the process might drag on."

"Understood, then I will first disrupt her power."

In a rapid exchange, Leon immediately activated his enhanced ability to extract the essence of truth from falsehood.

This wave directly extracted nearly 70 units, and combined with the inventory accumulated in the previous two months, the total reached nearly 400 units, setting a new record.

The fact that 70 samples were collected indicates that his fraud was successful.

Shitikos believed she had created the [Time Particle Blast], but while she believed it, she was clearly confident in suppressing Leon's move, or perhaps she didn't think its power would exceed her control.

She suddenly activated the power of the forbidden zone she had drawn upon, clearly confident that this power could instantly suppress the [Time Particle Blast] described by Leon.

With this in mind, Lyon transformed these nearly four hundred pieces of illusory essence into conceptual essence at a ratio of ten to one, which is equivalent to transforming them into 40 pieces of conceptual essence.

This number is quite astonishing.

The 18 portions of Time Essence obtained from M'shiruna can help Astalia reclaim the power originating from the future.

As a collection of gems in the same tier, the 40 concept gems can definitely play a greater role.

With this, he knew what to do.

He immediately reached out and pointed the aura of light at Shitikos's forbidden zone power:

“Sir, if you push the power of the forbidden zone over here again, I will unleash this move, [Time Particle Blast].

"Hehe, whatever you want."

Shitikos laughed without caring at all.

"Here it comes, let me see how long your forbidden zone power can hold."

As soon as Lyon finished speaking, he poured in three portions of conceptual essence, solidifying the fraudulent concept of "Time Particle Blast" in his hand into reality, and then casually threw it.

laugh!!!!

When it is thrown, the spells [Elemental Freeze] and [Frosty Moon Flow] are activated simultaneously.

At this moment, a straight line was formed between the halo and the elemental vortex. Time seemed to stand still, and only the halo transformed into a stream of light, bursting forth in an instant.

Its speed was so fast that it reached a terrifying speed of 0.2 times the speed of light in the blink of an eye.

However, although time seemed to be frozen by magic, Shitikos's high level of cultivation naturally exempted her from this effect. She smiled and made no such move. Suddenly, a stream of forbidden power that had been infiltrating the singularity's core split off and blocked the halo.

As it passed by, it suddenly opened like a giant hand, enveloping the halo before it could trigger the elemental vortex.

As she made this move, a thought flashed through Shiti's mind: 'How did he know I would use the power of the forbidden zone to contain this [Time Particle Blast] spell?'

As she was thinking this, the halo exploded.

boom!!!!!

A burst of brilliant light erupted, and the deep, endless singularity core suddenly became as bright as day.

However, the power of the restricted area was indeed strong. Although the light was allowed to escape, the explosive force was indeed firmly suppressed.

The giant hand formed from the power of the forbidden zone slightly activated its empty and unintentional power, completely dissipating the explosive force.

"Although it's a decent move, enough to kill any tenth-tier god, it's nothing special if you can't activate the elemental vortex."

Shitikos shook her head and commented:

"You were exaggerating so much just now, I actually thought you were something special."

"Is that so? It seems you have overlooked something."

Lyon's laughter rang out, and Shitikos frowned slightly. She turned her head and saw that the other part of the forbidden zone power that she had reached out to seize the authority of seemed to have been bounced away by something, moving slightly away from the singularity core.

That invisible force of the forbidden zone was like a fish, only able to roam around the outer edge of the singularity's core.

What did you do?

Shitikos was somewhat surprised. This kid was so far below her in rank. It was one thing to use elemental vortexes to interfere with the singularity core, but how could he possibly interfere with the power of the forbidden zone that she was controlling?
