Chapter 222: Immortality

In the Platinum Zone, on the street,

Yin held a flawless, pristine white longbow in her hand, standing alone in the pouring rain with a sense of pride.

This white longbow is named “Moonlight”.

It is a powerful and advanced Relic with the special ability to attack the shadow of objects, causing damage to the physical entity of the shadow. However, its cost is a gradual deterioration of the user’s vision, eventually leading to blindness.

For this reason, Yin chose it, fully aware that she would never regain her sight again.

She had no desire to see this ugly, false world anymore.

The weapon suited her perfectly.

“The Hound of Babel Tower, are you going to keep hiding?” Yin spoke.

At this point, Mu Ling had already sought refuge in the shadows, and Maryse had entered a nullification state, but both of them had sustained some injuries in their recent confrontation.

Their efforts to eliminate Yin had all been in vain.

As Yin had stated… she had become an entity that could not be killed in the true sense.

As long as the “gift” remains intact, she possesses immortality.

Additionally, five diamond-shaped crystals floated around Yin, crafted through alchemy. These magical objects provide both offensive and defensive powers, automatically activating their defenses when facing an attack.

Maryse dispelled her void state in the shadows and began using her psychic power to communicate with Mu Ling.

[What should we do? Our attacks aren’t having any effect. This woman is too powerful!]

Mu Ling thought for a moment before replying.

[It seems like there’s not much we can do to stop her. My attacks won’t do much damage, but for now, all we can do is continue our assault.]

Mu Ling had already attempted to restrict Yin’s movements by severing her limbs.

However, Yin was adept in “healing magic”, causing her body to regenerate instantly after being damaged, nearly undergoing a complete rebirth.

The recovery rate was too rapid.

The gift of immortality and the regenerative spell combined created a terrifying effect.

This left Mu Ling and Maryse in a stalemate.

As Yin had declared, she had become an entity that could neither be killed nor eradicated.

“Still not coming out?”

Yin raised her arm with calmness, drawing the bowstring, and an invisible arrow shot out toward a distant villa.

That villa belonged to a noble in the Platinum Zone.

“Boom.”

A loud explosion followed, and the entire villa collapsed in a rumbling crash, with the inhabitants unable to escape.

“If you don’t show yourself, I will destroy this entire area. How many people will die in the process? But then again, they will all eventually depart from this false world.”

“This could be a form of redemption.”

With a serene expression, Yin aimed her bow at another building in the Platinum Zone.

“Stop!”

Mu Ling stepped out from the shadows.

The girl she once knew was no longer the same; she would never have indiscriminately killed innocent lives.

The once beloved friend had become the very person they despised.

Though the strict laws of the Air Alliance and the Night Watchers of Tatsumi City had contributed to her transformation, Mu Ling would not allow this woman to escape punishment.

Deep Blue World.

Within moments, Mu Ling stood before her former friend.

Her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

She swung the deadly blade, slashing through flesh and bone with rapid strikes so quick that the blade seemed to vanish in midair.

Time froze, bringing everything to a halt.

In Maryse’s astonished gaze, the blindfolded woman in white was shredded into hundreds of pieces by countless beams of light, but her body quickly regenerated at an astonishing speed!

This is an immensely powerful forbidden spell… High-Speed Regeneration!

Every category of magic has its own set of “forbidden spells.” Those who can master these spells gain unimaginable power.

Among the fifteen types of magic, there are seventy-two forbidden spells in total, created by magic masters.

Thirty-six of these were invented by the first president of Time of Chord, who ascended to divinity a thousand years ago and is now known as one of the Rainbow… “Anomalous Star”.

Due to the potency of forbidden spells created by “Anomalous Star”, they are referred to as the “upper thirty-six”, while the remaining spells are known as the “lower thirty-six”.

The “High-Speed Regeneration” that Yin has mastered belongs to one of the six forbidden spells in “healing-type magic”! It is considered part of the “lower thirty-six”!

Cannot be killed.

Mu Ling’s blade severed the beautiful body time and again, but no matter how many times she cut, the opponent refused to die.

Yin’s healing rate was faster than her body could be damaged!

The only way to keep Yin from fully regenerating was to maintain the “Deep Blue World” continuously, allowing Mu Ling to strike hundreds of times to delay her recovery.

Can I really not defeat this enemy?

Mu Ling sank into thought. Using “Deep Blue World” for such extended periods drained her mentally, and if she kept going, she would soon fall unconscious.

Just then, Maryse, having released her etherealization, stood a hundred meters away, cautiously reaching out with her psychic power to communicate with Mu Ling.

[I have a plan that might just give us a chance to defeat her, but it comes with great risk.]

Maryse considered using the Blade of Annihilation, but hesitated when remembering the heavy toll it would take.

However, they couldn’t keep going like this.

“Finally decided to show yourself.”

Yin, still in a fragmented state, suddenly spoke. This was the first time she had used her innate power during the fight!

Mu Ling’s INT skyrocketed with alarm!

“Boom!”

A massive explosion erupted from the point where the sound originated. Mu Ling, within range, activated Deep Blue World just in time.

She saw the air around Yin begin to distort violently. Even her hand, gripping the blade, began to bleed.

Mu Ling realized this was a tremendous explosive force, and facing it head-on would severely injure her. Maryse was vulnerable at this moment… and would certainly be turned to dust by the blast!

Inside the Deep Blue World, Mu Ling rushed toward the stunned Maryse, pulling her close and fleeing in the opposite direction.

The next moment, time resumed.

“Boom!”

The streets within a radius of several hundred meters were completely flattened by the devastating shockwave, creating a massive crater and obliterating nearly everything.

Only Yin remained standing, untouched by the destruction.

She stood amid the black night and pouring rain, still holding her longbow. Her clothes had been torn apart by the impact, leaving only a black blindfold over her eyes.

Like a vengeful goddess, sacred and untouchable.

Mu Ling, carrying Maryse in her arms, exhaled in relief as they escaped the shockwave’s range. She now stood atop a building, gently lowering Maryse to the ground.

“Thank you, thank you so much.”

Maryse gazed in shock at the huge crater, feeling an uneasy chill.

If it hadn’t been for Mu Ling’s timely intervention, she would have been completely obliterated.

This woman was terrifyingly powerful, with both an invincible survival ability and immense destructive potential.

She seemed like a monster!

She murmured to herself, “I’m just a weakling, can you spare me… Though I really want to surrender and beg for mercy, Mu Ling, you’ll keep fighting, right?”

Mu Ling was slightly surprised but nodded quietly.

Maryse chuckled and said with determination, “I don’t have any lofty ideals, nor do I care for the lives of the innocent… But Mu Ling, I will fight alongside you, even if it means descending into hell together.”

Hmm, could this be considered a confession of love?

Mu Ling fell silent for a moment, then replied bluntly, “I won’t marry a woman.”

Maryse froze, then dramatically slapped Mu Ling’s fair cheeks with both hands, exclaiming, “Are you crazy? What were you thinking? And by the way, I already have someone I like!”

Mu Ling stood in silence, unsure how to respond, wondering if she had misunderstood.

“Have you improved your sisterhood communication?”

Yin calmly approached, still holding her longbow.

What should we do?

Mu Ling and Maryse exchanged glances, unsure how to handle the situation.

At this moment, a voice echoed in their minds.

Both of them instantly brightened.

[I will give you new possibilities.]

“……”

Though Yin couldn’t see, she could sense everything around her. Lost in thought, she noticed that the essence of the two girls had shifted.

This should be impossible.

When the essence changes, the foundation of extraordinary power also transforms!
