As he suddenly threw it, a "Frost Rift Spear" enchanted with ice and soul rift effects sliced through the air, like a polar star falling, cutting a dazzling trajectory through the night.
The spear penetrated the core of an abyssal demon lurking in the shadow with precision.
"Boom!" As the explosion sounded, a violent distortion echoed from the hit demon’s body, which instantly disintegrated into dust composed of unstable pitch-black corrosive energy, and the foul stench it emitted was immediately consumed by the fierce tongues of holy flames around.
On the other side, a female knight knelt, guarding a crumbling section of the wall. Her hands continuously formed sealing techniques, gathering shimmering earth arcane energy waves in her palms.
This force seemed to awaken the ancient earth veins, securing the crumbling stone tightly, allowing the flank defense to remain strong.
"Darkness shall not consume this land again!" She muttered through clenched teeth.
Meanwhile, a young man swung his sword burning with flames of natural belief and holy arcane light.
As his sword edge cut through a deep dark mist, it added a layer of burning skin, gradually retreating the corrupt shadow.
"With our belief, we’ll burn out evil; this is our true mission!" His voice was as firm as an anvil striking steel.
The new "Mage Knights" differed from the traditional heavy armored knights; their physical condition was significantly enhanced, and they possessed powerful arcane control and quick reaction abilities, achieving unprecedented mobility and spellcasting efficiency on the battlefield.
This "instant casting" doesn’t require long complex incantations; merely focusing the mind can activate powerful offensive and defensive magic stored within runes, making them a new battle unit that is both strong and flexible, simultaneously lethal and protective.
They replaced the massive numbers of traditional heavy knights who fell due to sacrifice, using more agile and versatile stances for the clean-up of remaining abyssal forces.
From perimeter lockdown to advancing the core, each charge brought unstoppable destructive waves, clearing heavy obstacles and lurking dangers for David and other main commanders.
David stood on the altar’s edge, watching the valiant fighting, an invisible motivation from his mind reached his chest, making his resolve even stronger.
Every time he saw the enemies swiftly cut down and the fortifications temporarily stable, he tightly gripped the giant sword in his hand, quickened his breathing rhythm, drawing more belief strength for the impending final showdown.
Snowflakes danced with the sound of blades clashing, every action steeped in the resilience honed by the baptism of life’s blood;
Each energy burst carried the undying will of deceased ancestors transformed into eternal vows;
Every gaze reflected a fervent longing for dawn and an uncompromising resolve against darkness!
The air seemed torn into countless fragments of black and light, each wave foretold the arrival of the ultimate battle.
David’s gaze was heavy, he knew this moment was both the eve of the showdown and the key starting point of the redemption road.
"Liya," David’s voice was steady and undeniable, "Lead your team, do your utmost to suppress the black marks and living network on Yi Lin.
Cynthia will assist in ice seal block, and the Saintess will use belief power from afar to continuously suppress her mental erosion.
We must ensure the queen’s soul is not completely consumed."
Liya nodded firmly, resilience shining in her eyes. "Understood, I will lead them in protecting Yi Lin’s last shred of self with all our might."
Cynthia lightly floated to the altar’s side like a shadow, her figure seemingly ethereal, her crystalline eyes shimmering with icy blue light as her hands gently brushed the air, weaving an unbreakable soul ice wall that locked Yi Lin like a cage.
In the distance, the Saintess sat kneeling among the rubble, hands together reciting ancient prayers as countless golden belief pillars fell from the sky.
They gathered into an invisible sacred barrier, providing holy power protection to all knights, while continuously suppressing Yi Lin’s corrupt energy spread.
At this moment, David turned to gaze at the twisted giant incarnation of the fallen god.
His eyes were sharp like a blade, that body faintly glimmering with ominous veins connecting the deepest core of the abyssal crack, the source of fallen power.
He slowly crouched, took out from his chest a new rune jewel fused with chaos core and star essence, the jewel emitted dazzling blue-white intertwined flames, like a galaxy falling into dark ocean, or dawn piercing eternal night mist.
David held his breath as he gazed at the jewel, infusing it with his own will.
He softly recited ancient spells, the secret method of the Silver Moon Knight Order preserved for a thousand years.
Fusing chaos core energy with star gnomon rhythm, hoping to tear open the space barrier, creating a brief yet exceedingly splendid "Purification Passage" enveloped by chaos god light.
The passage slowly opened, like a blue lightning ripping through void, reaching directly from the altar to the deepest layer of the abyssal crack.
Inside it flowed brilliance as splendid as stars, yet contained the power of destruction, each step felt like entering an unknown purgatory, but also the only path to redemption of the fallen source.
The knights witnessing this world-shaking scene were filled with solemn respect.
This purification passage was not just a physical path, but a fortress of will, crossing it required extraordinary perseverance and sacrifice, they knew David was about to enter this lonely and extremely dangerous abyssal end.
"I will be the torch for dawn," David’s voice was deep and determined, as he stepped into the blazing bright yet all-consuming void entrance, silver holy flame igniting instantly, submerging him into a state beyond mortal life and death.
He became a flowing galaxy, driven by pure will, diving toward darkness’s core in the purification passage!
The remaining knights silently watched, their hearts surged with myriad emotions: fear, anticipation, prayer, and the resolve to guard to the last.
This was not just a physical challenge, but the ultimate test of soul purity and belief strength!
Liya hurried towards Yi Lin’s location, she waved her magic staff guiding natural element circulation, commanding Cynthia to enhance the ice seal chains: "Maintain formation! Cannot let her escape control range!"
Cynthia softly replied: "She struggles increasingly fiercely, but the ice wall becomes even sturdier, I will do everything to restrain her consciousness fluctuation!"
Annie knelt beside, using warm golden magic to continually stabilize teammates’ spirit, and with gentle prayers encourage everyone: "We are with you, no matter how tough, we must protect the light of dawn!"
The array’s runes began to resonate, closely combining with nature’s inheritance power, a strong protective field gradually expanded, offering life defense blessings for Liya and others.
And all of this was to create the most relaxed and safe environment for David, allowing him to focus on severing the ominous shackles connecting the ancient darkness root!
As time progresses, space distortion intensified, the "Purification Passage" surging with billions of blue flames, like tides hitting every inch of his skin while gradually dispelling the decayed shadows eroding his consciousness.
Every closer step he took, he could more clearly feel the evil oscillations from that ancient dark presence, strengthening his resolve to completely annihilate it!
Chaos god light tore through void like star river fragments, David stepped into the purification passage woven from chaos core and star rhythm.
The feeling of time and space distortion within the passage intensified, each step seemed to cross the boundaries between reality and the otherworld.
Countless blue-white flames flowed around him, a pure energy beyond mortal understanding, yet faintly carrying abyssal decay shadows, ice and fire intertwined, life and death resonating.
Finally, he passed through layers of spatial mist, like crossing a long dark tunnel, reaching the deepest bottom of the abyssal crack.
The unknown, most eerie and terrifying land beyond the far north wilderness.
Here, there is no burning sea of fire, no scorching lava, and no sulfurous burning scents.
