Chapter 485: The Fifth Company of the Fire King
Above the sky, heat waves are surging.
The pitch-black sky was completely dyed by the boundless flames. Two fiery figures left behind streaks of light, as if cutting the entire sky into countless pieces.
Combined with the broken space that can be seen everywhere, the whole scene is like the destruction of the world.
The time and space around the First Fire are already chaotic. Stagnant timelines, and fragmented and briefly intertwined independent time and space are the norm in this world.
However, the battle between Xia Yu and the incarnation of the Fire King made this normal state even more chaotic, and various disasters occurred frequently, both in this world and in other parallel fragmented worlds.
The power of fire can break the boundaries of time and space, not to mention that the battle between the two is right next to the First Fire.
After another intersection, the incarnation of the Fire King swung the Fire Sword and suddenly stopped chasing.
Seeing this, Xia Yu did not act rashly, but silently mobilized the power of the abyss black fog to submerge the entire initial furnace .
He can ignore the weakening of the flames by the Abyss, but the incarnation of the Lord of Fire obviously cannot.
The incarnation of the King of Fire stood in the void, ignoring Xia Yu's little movements. The next moment, the incarnation of the King of Fire suddenly grasped the hilt of the sword with his backhand and stabbed down fiercely.
boom!!!
The flames came, and the space was squeezed beyond the weight. After a loud bang, Xia Yu had to pull back.
He understood that this was the second stage of the incarnation of the Lord of Fire.
In the game , when the first life of the Fire King Incarnation is exhausted, the Fire King Incarnation will enter the second stage. Not only will its status be fully restored, but its strength will also increase dramatically.
Of course, in other words, if the Incarnation of the Fire King is defeated in the second stage, then the Incarnation of the Fire King is truly defeated, unlike a certain old man named Ashina, who has three stages in total. If the old man's grandson is included, that is four stages, which is simply insane.
When the second stage of the Fire King's transformation was activated, flames surged from his body, and he then pulled out the Fire Sword and inserted it into the void.
A spider-web-like spatial crack appeared where the greatsword was inserted, and as the greatsword was pulled out, the crack expanded.
Xia Yu, who was far away, narrowed his eyes slightly, applied a few buffs to himself first, and then took out his staff after his status was fully restored, and shot a stream of soul at it.
Soul Torrent, a magic taught by the original sage when Lothric and the Great Library were founded, can shoot out a large amount of soul torrent.
The incarnation of the Lord of Fire on the other side was not to be outdone. He transformed the Fire Sword into a Fire Staff and also shot out a torrent of souls.
Two comet-like magics collided in mid-air. The dazzling blue dispelled the darkness and red of the sky, leaving only a crack like a nebula in the deep space.
The test was over. The incarnation of the King of Fire did not give Xia Yu time to distance himself again. He suddenly flashed forward and slashed out with the Fire Sword carrying flames all over the sky.
As the flames passed by, Xia Yu's figure instantly disintegrated into black mist.
Before the incarnation of the Fire King could react, the next second, the abyssal black fog that submerged the original furnace suddenly condensed spontaneously, and groups of black energy shaped like human nature floated out.
The dark energy, with its distinct black and white tail, rushed straight into the sky, heading towards the incarnation of the Lord of Fire.
Before he got close, dark energy suddenly exploded, and the black fog of the abyss spread. The flames all over the body of the incarnation of the Fire King, who was in the center of the black fog, dimmed, and the heat also decreased.
The terrible environment made the incarnation of the Fire King feel uncomfortable all over. Just when he wanted to rush out of this area, two deep arms filled with dark blue mist and extremely black inside rushed out of the abyss and extended infinitely in front of the incarnation of the Fire King.
The Deep Arm is made up of dark soul sediments. Archbishop MacDonald, a magician, once said happily because of the sedimented souls in the church: "Great, the Abyss of the World is here."
Facing the grasp of the Deep Arm, the incarnation of the Fire King swung his sword and immediately annihilated the Deep Arm. The dark abyss then erupted and spread. The abyss that suppressed the flames caused the incarnation of the Fire King to pause, and the flames on his body dimmed again.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, a ray of holy light appeared in the dark abyss, and the dazzling light was like a sword that was about to cut through the sky.
The Holy Light of Lothric!
One of the combat skills of the Twin Princes' Greatsword. In addition, the Greatsword can also release the flames of Lorian.
The roaring holy light turned into a torrent, filling the entire sky.
This time, whether it was the blue of magic, the black of the abyss, or even the red of the fire, they all dimmed under the holy white. The roaring light continued unabated, and after submerging the incarnation of the Fire King, it continued to sweep towards the sky.
This is a light that is enough to burn the world, and the whole world is trembling.
Finally, the light dimmed a little, and wherever the holy light passed, turbulent void flow was stirred up, and the incarnation of the Lord of Fire was sucked into it.
Seeing this, Xia Yu did not take it lightly. He used the flames as power and sent him into the turbulence in one fell swoop. He did not receive the soul of the incarnation of the King of Fire, proving that the incarnation of the King of Fire did not die.
Breaking through the mirror-like shattered crystal walls of the world, Xia Yu followed the flaming figure and came to a fragmented world.
The world of Dark Souls is not a single world, but is composed of multiple brother worlds, or fragment worlds.
These worlds all have their own ashes, and these ashes also have their own mission of passing on the fire. Because the first fire is unique, as long as one ash passes on the fire successfully, all worlds can continue.
However, up to now, not a single ember has been successfully passed on to another flame, and the First Fire has fallen into decline due to a lack of firewood.
Xia Yu is the ash closest to the First Flame, because only he and the guardian of the First Flame, the incarnation of the Lord of Fire, have started this battle that is enough to destroy the world.
In the unchanging sky, a fiery red figure broke through the crystal wall of the world and slammed heavily into this fragmented world. The momentum of just breaking through the world created a devastating impact that destroyed the world.
Everything along the way was collapsing. The magnificent impact swept down, causing all the buildings in this world's royal city to collapse. An unknown number of souls floated out, all drifting towards the incarnation of the Fire King.
The incarnation of the Fire King sensed the soul of that half of the fragmented world floating towards him, and immediately absorbed it into the Fire Sword. The flame was replenished with firewood, and the extremely compressed heat traveled over it, turning into a world-destroying sword skill and slashing towards the pursuing figure.
Five consecutive wins for the salary king!
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
A powerful force exploded and spread, and the fragmented world, which had already been half destroyed, suffered another irreversible blow. Everything happened in an instant.
Facing the five consecutive attacks of the Fire King, Xia Yu went up to fight with his sword.
The abyss and fire, two originally hostile forces, coexist harmoniously in his hands.
Xia Yu first used the black fog of the abyss to weaken the fire power of the incarnation of the Fire King, and then released his own fire power to the fullest, using fire to fight fire. This is the tone of this Age of Fire.
As the energy between the two exploded, the crumbling fragmented world began to tremble. The disaster that wiped out half of the world did not stop, and the remaining half of the world was also heading towards destruction.
Sensing the soul entering his body, Xia Yu frowned slightly. If he could obtain souls, so could the incarnation of the King of Fire. After all, the incarnation of the King of Fire was made of ashes just like him.
But if this is the case, won’t we be entering into another protracted war?
Thinking of this, a fierce light flashed in Xia Yu's eyes. He must not let the incarnation of the Fire King enter the fragment world again. If the incarnation of the Fire King had harvested the souls of the fragment world before him, it would not be impossible for him to be suppressed in turn.
The flames destroyed the world, the earth turned into lava rushing everywhere, and then cracked open. The sky was red, and you could vaguely see that the crystal wall of this world was gradually cracking.
KA!!!
The sound of shattering spread throughout the world. Before the turbulence in the void could appear, the fragmented world finally couldn't withstand the aftermath of the battle. Under the ravages of huge energy, it shattered into pieces and disappeared into the void.
Xia Yu and the incarnation of the Fire King also fell into the void. The two figures ignored the turbulence around them and started a world-destroying fight again.
But facing Xia Yu's strength (kai), the incarnation of the King of Fire was ultimately at a disadvantage.
Although he is the incarnation of all the Fire Kings, fighting also consumes energy. He had replenished a wave of soul energy before, allowing him to continue fighting, but at this moment, that little bit of soul energy has been used up.
Realizing this, the incarnation of the Fire King was trying to find another fragment world to enter, but Xia Yu, who had always been at the top, would not give him this opportunity.
Xia Yu forcefully blocked the incarnation of the King of Fire. Whenever the incarnation of the King of Fire wanted to enter the nearby fragment world, Xia Yu would stand in front of the incarnation of the King of Fire first.
boom!!!
The two swords collided, and the void became even more chaotic. Without soul replenishment, and coupled with the fact that Xia Yu could continue to maintain his peak state through the chat group, the incarnation of the King of Fire was eventually knocked away by a sword.
And the direction he was flying towards was the center of all worlds, the original furnace!
After knocking the incarnation of the Fire King away, Xia Yu followed closely behind, not giving him a chance to breathe.
Snap!
The incarnation of the Lord of Fire was once again forced to break through the world crystal wall and return to where the battle began.
But this time, his luck seemed to have run out.
As early as the beginning, Xia Yu had mobilized the power of the abyss black fog to submerge the entire initial furnace, but the incarnation of the King of Fire could not ignore the abyss.
Therefore, the incarnation of the Fire King who fell into the original furnace had no time to catch his breath before the abyss climbed over him. The depths turned into arms and completely tied up the incarnation of the Fire King.
The weakening of the abyss, coupled with the consumption of the battle, made it impossible for the incarnation of the Lord of Fire to break free from the shackles of the abyss in the first place, and he could only be bound to the spot.
Coincidentally, Xia Yu returned at this time.
Seeing the miserable state of the incarnation of the King of Fire, Xia Yu felt happy and decided to help the incarnation of the King of Fire end this humiliation.
After compressing all the flames in his body into the sword in his hand, Xia Yu exhaled a breath of heat with sparks, stepped into the void, and suddenly rushed down from the sky.
Boom!!!
A roar that resounded throughout the world suddenly exploded, and a dazzling light burst out on the surface, illuminating the entire dark world in one fell swoop. Even the black sun was clearly visible under this light.
Countless terrifying cracks spread, and the terrifying flames expanded rapidly with a devastating force, instantly submerging the entire original furnace and turning the collapsed building at the end upside down.
The flames dissipated, and the surrounding terrain changed completely. The roots of the rock tree that served as the initial furnace were cut off by half, and only the location where the initial fire burned was not affected.
At the largest dent, Xia Yu knelt on one knee and inserted the sword in his hand straight into the chest of the incarnation of the King of Fire.
"So, am I qualified to meet Chu Huo now?"
In response to Xia Yu's question, the incarnation of the King of Fire did not answer. The next second, the flames in the eye sockets of the twisted helmet quietly went out.
The incarnation of the Lord of Fire eventually turned into a pile of real ashes, leaving behind only a twisted suit of armor and the Fire Sword that had never been released from beginning to end.
Seeing this, Xia Yu was silent for a moment. After he had completely retracted the abyss that had submerged the original furnace, he stood up and drew out his greatsword.
Then he waved his hand and collected the Fire Armor and Fire Greatsword left behind by the incarnation of the Fire King.
These artifacts can restore themselves under the heat of fire, so he is not worried about the traces left behind in the battle.
After doing all this, Xia Yu jumped lightly and came to the final bonfire. At this final bonfire, burning was the first fire that supported the entire world.
Looking at the first fire, Xia Yu was filled with mixed emotions.
Inherit the flame of the original intention, usurp the original intention in the middle, extinguish the fire of pain, and inherit the darkness of the new life.
There are four endings for the game: the fire spreading ending, the fire usurping ending, the fire extinguishing ending, and the dark ending, but only one can be chosen.
In the game, in order to get all the achievements, Xia Yu naturally did every ending. Even the ending about stepping on his wife that did not achieve any achievements, he tried it out of curiosity.
But at this moment, he can only choose carefully, because this is not a game, but his reality.
After staring at Chu Huo for a while, Xia Yu laughed and shook his head.
"Really? What am I thinking? I'm a cheater, how can there be only these four endings?"
"My own ending will naturally be created by myself!"
[Dark Souls III]: So, that big guy who lives off his wife, please help us.
【Marvel】：(=_=)
[Marvel]: Is this the attitude to ask for help?
As the same person, Marvel Xia Yu naturally knew what Ashes Xia Yu was thinking.
Since you want to achieve the World Tree ending, you must have a thorough understanding of the operating rules of the World Tree. It just so happens that there is a real World Tree in the Marvel world.
The World Tree in the Marvel world is composed of nine kingdoms, just like in Norse mythology, namely Asgard, Vanaheim, Nidave, Alfheim, Midgard, Svartalfheim, Jotunheim, Muspelheim, and Nifelheim.
In this, Midgard is the Earth, and because the Earth is located in the center of the World Tree, it is also called the Atrium.
At this time, Marvel Xia Yu has surpassed the single universe and can naturally explore the mysteries of the world tree.
Therefore, since Marvel has a ready-made world tree to refer to, Ash Xia Yu naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to start from scratch on his own.
Even though there are some differences, since they are both world trees, we can always find something to refer to.
[Dark Souls III]: What you said is not right. We are the same person. You help me and I help you. We are both helping ourselves, right?
[Marvel]: Oh~
[Dark Soul 1]: Don’t worry about that idiot. I’ll trouble you to analyze the World Tree. After all, it is really important to us.
[Marvel]: Don't worry, I've already set off. World Tree, I don't know if I can find a black dragon named Nidhogg at the roots of the tree.
[Dark Soul 1]: It should be difficult. In Norse mythology, it was Nidhogg who bit off the world tree, which led to the arrival of Ragnarok. However, in the Marvel world, Ragnarok has nothing to do with Nidhogg, and it is hard to say whether there is a black dragon or not.
[Marvel]: That’s right.
