Chapter 606 606: The Living Tribunal, The Primordial Dragon Court

Artoria took one last look at the red-haired young girl who had been completely annihilated within the intense magical energy. The pitch-black mist seemed to be provoked.

It rapidly shifted shapes, and within the air, pairs of eyes opened simultaneously.

Artoria was uneasy. She subconsciously met the gaze of one of the pairs. In that instant, she seemed to see, within the endless void, layers upon layers of pupils transferring her spirit.

She possessed quite strong special resistance, but at this moment, she still felt the world turning upside down, and her mind losing its footing.

Boom!

A strong shockwave hit her. Artoria instantly snapped awake. She turned her head, traces of alarm remaining in her platinum-colored eyes.

This power birthed from within Seraphina's body was extremely bizarre and very powerful!

It was far beyond what ordinary mystic eyes could compare to.

In the next moment, an abnormal thought appeared in Artoria's heart. She felt her body grow slightly hot, and the face of her host involuntarily began to appear in her mind.

His strength and cruelty, as well as that domineering nature of self-centeredness in all things, vaguely caused Artoria to feel a sense of admiration and affection.

Hum!

Magical energy burst forth from her body. Artoria was infused with mana. She looked guardedly at her host.

Bai Cangzhu, however, did not change his expression. He continued to flick or point, his Qigong waves shattering the eyes one by one, while a strange smile appeared on his lips as he spoke:

"Heh, who told you to fall for that thing's trick? If I didn't use the [Heart of Slaanesh] to shock you, how could you have come back?"

Bai Cangzhu's eyes glanced over the dark-armored knight's petite body. The latter also realized what happened and immediately drew her sword for a horizontal slash.

Every slash of Excalibur Morgan would directly clear nearly a thousand meters of space. The black mist did not dissipate at all; instead, it grew thicker.

While utilizing her special resistance against abnormal statuses to resist the special feelings continuously born from the depths of her heart—the ability named [Heart of Slaanesh] was quite terrifying; even she had to take it seriously.

While wielding terrifying slashes, Artoria pushed the battlefield outward.

"It's time to retreat. This power is dangerous."

Artoria could not find the true body of that black mist, which meant she could not slay the opponent. If this continued, even her mana would be exhausted.

Bai Cangzhu did not answer.

He stood in his place, looking at the body of the other Seraphina he had recreated.

The opponent had refused to transfer her life into this body, causing Bai Cangzhu's plan to fall through.

Originally, Bai Cangzhu calculated that as long as Seraphina transferred into this body he recreated using the Sephiroth heart and Vitalized Blood.

There was a high probability that at this moment, she could escape the influence of that void and chaos power, thereby utilizing that special purification Sephiroth to solve this problem.

But this woman, even though her life had reached its end, still chose the way Bai Cangzhu detested the most.

Bai Cangzhu looked at the shell that still remained unchanged. His eyelids drooped, and his fingers thrust out, prepared to gouge out that polluted Sephiroth heart to end this not-so-successful mission.

Even if he obtained a new stairway and gained a polluted Sephiroth, Bai Cangzhu did not have much sense of gain.

Pfft.

At the instant Bai Cangzhu's fingers pierced into her chest, he suddenly perceived her brow furrow for a brief moment.

This is...

Bai Cangzhu instantly grabbed her neck, even using his left hand to grip her waist to prevent this body from shattering because his movement speed was too fast.

Bang!

Bai Cangzhu controlled his strength, but when one foot stomped out, the ground still broke with a bang, the foundation crashing down. He crashed out of the black mist like a meteor, and leaped into the thousand-meter-high sky in one jump.

Artoria also immediately followed. After rushing out of the mist, the two rapidly sped toward the distance.

Below them, the British Peninsula, fractured from the middle, was slowly being completely swallowed by the black mist.

Looking from high above, those black mists swirled and twisted, eventually turning into a huge phantom rising from the submerged island and the ash-covered continental mass.

Like a giant standing on the surface of the planet, reaching out toward the surroundings, the black mist continued to spread. Within those black mists, pairs of pupils opened one by one, and an indescribable power was rapidly swallowing this world.

Bai Cangzhu opened his interface and saw that the world's collapse value had exceeded 80%. Perhaps before long, he could even activate the [Despairing Savior] mode here.

But he did not focus on those. He flew through the atmosphere at an extremely terrifying speed, eventually landing on an ice field.

He put down the young girl in his hands. The red-haired young girl, her body huddled, opened her eyes in confusion, various lusters flickering within her crimson pupils.

"You are..."

"Urgh!"

She suddenly began to vomit violently. Because it was a newly created body, there was nothing at all in her stomach, so besides some gastric juice, she could not vomit anything out.

But she still continued to vomit.

With a thought, golden ripples spread from Bai Cangzhu's back like wings, wrapping around the surface of the young girl's body.

The warm power instantly dispelled the cold and significantly strengthened the vitality of the young girl's flesh and blood.

If [Stellar Ripple Lv4] was calculated using data, it could probably increase a human body's attributes by 5-10 points and gain various buffs including vitality.

It counted as powerful for others, but for the current Bai Cangzhu, it was still not enough.

"Pfft"

Seraphina suddenly vomited out a piece of crimson flesh, and immediately went limp on the ground.

With a sweep of his single hand, a gravitational force was generated out of thin air. That flesh immediately flew up, falling into his hand.

Bai Cangzhu sensed it for a moment, then with a gentle squeeze, the flesh was crushed by golden Ki, leaving only that crimson crystal in the middle.

That thing was about the size of a finger, surrounded by rings of radiance. When floating in Bai Cangzhu's palm, there were specks of light debris dissipating and vanishing into the air.

Bai Cangzhu reached out and grasped it.

[You obtained Special Creation · Sephiroth (Level 1, compatible stairways 2)]

Sephiroth!

Unpolluted Sephiroth?!

Bai Cangzhu almost immediately wanted to rip open the young girl's chest to see if that heart of hers would still be judged as a Sephiroth.

But accompanied by the sound of Artoria's footsteps behind him, he also abandoned this unrealistic greedy thought.
