Cursed Immortality Chapter 1248
Riding for a fall! (7)[ … words ]
[ … words ]
The moment Jacob invoked the Astral Transcendence, the law of Light and Space suddenly intertwined around his body.
The next moment, space folded, and distances twisted before the deadly arrow storm suddenly became chaotic: many arrows missed entirely, others collided with distorted layers of compressed space, and some even struck each other.
’BOOM!’
’BOOM!’
’BOOM!’
The explosions shook the heavens, but Jacob emerged unharmed, making the Myth of Black Archer’s heart sink further.
But then something even worse came when Jacob raised a finger, and a silver ripple spread outward.
It was Time Law’s first concept, Disruption!
The surrounding temporal flow instantly became unstable; thus, the Myth of Black Archer’s movements faltered, and his breathing became irregular.
The next instant, his attacks lost their rhythm, and even his thoughts seemed delayed by an invisible force; for a moment, he felt disconnected from reality itself. Not to mention, the more he resisted, the more distorted everything became.
“What have you done?!”
His voice now carried genuine panic because this law was something he had never experienced before, yet it was just as majestic and terrifying as the space law.
Meanwhile, Jacob continued to advance, step by step, relentlessly, like an inevitable judgment.
Jacob could’ve ended it with the Slumber Hex, but he decided against it because he wanted to test his understanding of the law and their combined might against someone with deep experience, like the Myth of Black Archer.
Not to mention, Jacob felt no threat against the Myth of Black Archer, so he didn’t waste Slumber Hex on him.
At that moment, the Myth of Black Archer’s mind raced. He finally understood that escape was impossible, and running only accelerated his death.
“Wait, it was nothing but a misunderstanding!” He suddenly shouted, trying to talk with Jacob for the first time, “We can talk about this, senior!”
He even called Jacob ’senior’ and put himself in a lower position just to save his life. It was the first time he had ever done it after becoming a Quasi-Myth, and the feeling was anything but pleasant, yet he kept it hidden well enough.
But Jacob didn’t even slow down, his expression remaining icy cold, and the Eyes of Judge reflected only indifference because the Myth of Archer had just lied!
The Black Archer’s heart fell into despair because this was indeed one of his assassination tactics to try negotiation and intimidation before launching a fatal blow to his opponent, but alas, it failed!
Now, there was only one option left, his ultimate technique; the forbidden culmination of the Black Archery.
At this moment, the Myth of Black Archer roared; blood erupted from every pore; his bloodline burned; his life force ignited; even his soul began to disintegrate.
All of it was converted into power as the black bow expanded and a terrifying arrow slowly formed.
The heavens darkened, and everything seemed to vanish as space collapsed around the projectile. Its tip resembled a miniature black sun, and everything nearby was being dragged toward it.
Even Jacob’s eyes flickered slightly with a hint of interest.
’He’s using his bloodline, lifeforce, and soul to combine the Law of Darkness and Space. This attack is impressive, far stronger than anything he displayed before. But it is still not on the level of my Astral Transcendence, which allows me to seamlessly merge the law of Light and Space, and give insight into the combination of laws without resorting to extreme measures…’
The Myth of Black Archer was unaware of Jacob’s nonchalant thought as he laughed hysterically.
“Let’s see how you survive this…Black Archery: Annihilation Star!”
The moment he roared, the arrow was fired, and silence followed without any explosion or shockwave; only absolute destruction.
Everything along its path vanished, reality itself seemed erased, and even the surrounding laws trembled.
For the first time during the battle, Jacob showed a trace of surprise, but still no fear, because the attack had reached a level capable of threatening ordinary Quasi-Myths.
Unfortunately, that was all as Jacob slowly extended his hand and invoked the Void Law.
The First Concept of Void Law, Nullity!
The approaching Annihilation Star suddenly slowed, and then its terrifying power began to disappear without a clash or destruction, as if it were simply being erased, like a drawing being wiped from existence.
Thereafter, the black sun shrank, the spatial collapse vanished, and the darkness faded. Within moments, nothing remained except for the bewildered Myth of Black Archer as he stared blankly where his ultimate attack, and life-burning final strike had erased!
His mind turned empty, and despair finally consumed him. The burning of his bloodline had left him exhausted, his soul was on the verge of collapse, and his body could barely remain airborne.
At that moment, Jacob appeared directly before him as the distance between them no longer existed.
Astral light flickering around Jacob’s body illuminated the darkness, and the Myth of Black Archer could only stare helplessly at the approaching figure.
The burning, pale-white, golden eyes, the overwhelming aura, and the incomprehensible authority over multiple laws… at that moment, he finally understood what kind of terror he had provoked, and he resented himself for it.
This wasn’t a monster that could be escaped, and a calamity in itself, not even the Undead Lich King might be as terrifying as him. In that moment, he wanted to report this terrifying discovery to the Mythical Coalition.
But even if he had tried to use communication treasure or even life-escaping talismans or treasures, Jacob would’ve reacted first and rendered everything useless with the Law of Space and Void.
This was something he had heard after spending so many years within Whiteness’s dreamscape.
The battle ended so quickly that the Myth of Black Archer didn’t have time to use any means other than resisting with all his power, and yet he still failed.
The last thing the Myth of Black Archer saw was Jacob’s hand reaching toward him; then darkness swallowed his consciousness completely, before two overbearing words, filled with icy indifference, rang…
“Soul Search!”
Thereafter, the world, filled with remnant laws and magical energy, fell silent once more!
