Chapter 962: Chapter 472: Apocalypse Device Application

"How did that thing end up here?" Lily frowned deeply.

Under the piercing thorns of the Bone Demon, the Wall of Verdant Green began to disintegrate. Countless light dots soared into the air like startled birds; they were the spirits that resided in the forest convergence.

The bony claw protruding behind Arunak was somewhat similar to Li Ang’s Demon’s Hand, but compared to his hand, which had been optimized to be smooth and regular, the arms of the Evil King Demon Remains were completely twisted and terrifying. It didn’t even have a normal bone structure; the proliferating thorns were merely compressed together by some force.

"We can’t let it continue devouring the spiritual bodies!"

Diao’s face changed because of the lamentation of all spirits. She raised her arms high, her magic power calling upon the surrounding spirits, raising a strong wind.

This was the Druid’s Gale Spell which Li Ang had seen "Future Diao" use in his previous dream. Compared to the gales created by Elemental Manipulators, she gained the assistance of the Wind Spirit, making the released gale more nimble and continuous. Not only did it not weaken as the magic power diminished, but it might even grow stronger.

When the young girl pushed the wind pillar forward, it had already grown much larger. By the time it reached behind the Bone Demon, the wind pillar was as magnificent as connecting heaven and earth.

The strong wind gathered on the high-altitude battlefield, filled with various remnants swallowed from the battlefield, formed a black wind that obscured the light. Here, it was full of various spirits, entirely illuminated by spiritual light, as if a pale cyan sky pillar, possessing a sense of divinity.

The light wind pillar struck the body of the Evil King Demon Remains. The gale passed through the holes in its body, producing an unbearable sharp whistling sound. The Demon still wished to continue devouring spiritual bodies, but its heavy form was slowly being driven away by the wind-furious Wind Spirit from the Green Wall.

"Well done!" Lily raised her hands and smiled.

Diao looked a bit surprised, as if she hadn’t expected herself to generate such powerful wind, but this emotion only lasted for a brief moment. She immediately stabilized the magic power output, allowing the Wind Spirit to rage freely.

The crimson huge body was gradually carried away from the Verdant Wall by the wind pillar, and the giant wooden dam structure it broke was also slowly repaired under the spiritual light.

"Roar——!"

The Bone Demon, which originally seemed to lack consciousness and acted solely on residual instincts, at this moment raised its head and let out the first angry roar.

In a wave of spiritual fluctuation, it broke free from the gale’s restraints. Even under the wind pressure, it still turned its heavy body to face everyone.

Li Ang’s prosthetic hand tightly gripped Orichalcum as the Power of Nature rapidly transformed into Pure Magic Wind. A cyan light gathered in his right palm, which he grasped tightly.

In the palm, magic power, spirit, and matter harmonized, like a process of world creation that was ingenious, magnificent, and vast. The Spirit Casting Art fused pure power into one.

The Apocalypse Device — Wind!

The Verdant Spear surrounded by Light Feather was straight and agile. Upon close inspection, the heavily feathered wings on either side of the spear shaft were actually wind elements compressed to the extreme. They completely submitted to the spear itself and could release ultimate power at any point.

This spear was still not a complete true apocalypse weapon, but Li Ang had used it before. Now becoming more proficient, its power and completeness have improved.

He tossed the Terminal Wind Spear upwards, and like it was weightless, it was caught by the Demon’s Hand that emerged behind him. The crimson arm contained boundless power, throwing it forward, launching the Wind Spear into the wind pillar crafted by Diao.

The spear seemed drawn to the center of the eye of the wind. Upon entry, the wind pillar exploded and instantly converged again. The newborn gale power surged suddenly, with howling noises overpowering all sound. The wind pillar truly pierced the heavens and earth, sweeping up everything on the ground, while the spirit galaxy of the sky was also cloaked by the spirit light of the storm, spreading into a canopy veiling the sky.

In the fluorent raging hurricane, the Evil King Demon Remains’ body was gradually pressed to the ground. Its power could not withstand the Wind of the End; its bone arms propped onto the ground, slowly crawling towards the earth.

"Next, try to destroy it... Great Witch?"

Diao intended to transform the gale into sharp blades to launch an attack, but Li Ang gently rested a hand on her shoulder.

"Watch out!" Liluliss’s warning rang out simultaneously.

More thorny bones suddenly jutted out from the Demon Remains’ back; breaking off and reversing direction, the thorns intertwined forming demonic claws, all aimed towards Diao’s direction.

Within less than a single breath, a gale of the same caliber erupted with the Demon Remains at its center. The violent sonic boom caused substantial harm, compelling everyone to cover their ears instinctively.

Arunak used Stealing Technique Return, using the same wind to cancel out Diao’s wind. The young girl gritted her teeth, stabilizing the magic power output. She knew that if the wind were to lose control at this moment, the original wind force would merge into the Demon-released attack, turning into a retaliatory storm.

However, the burden of uncontrolled magic power was immense. Her spirituality struggled to support and endure the same-scale counter magic power, and in an instant, her eyes filled with blood, and her fingers twitched.

"Let it go."

Li Ang patted her shoulder again: "It’s alright, I’ll take control of it."

With his assurance, the young girl hesitated for two seconds and then immediately withdrew her magic power. The uncontrolled wind pillar collapsed, being drawn by the claws on the Demon Remains’ back, roaring and howling, seemingly about to crash towards everyone.

Li Ang remotely controlled the Terminal Wind Spear with his right hand; its feathers flapped, and in an instant, all wind element activity seemed cut off. The air flow between heaven and earth abruptly ceased in an uncoordinated manner.

This display caused both Diao and Lily to look at him in startled surprise.

This technique was learned from Zosia. During his previous duel with Esso, Li Ang discovered that the "end" of the Apocalypse Device was somewhat similar to the concept of "Silence," with dual qualities of termination and rebirth.

From this point, the apocalypse represented an absolute veto of elemental power, but it also harbored their Eternal Rebirth.

With his current understanding, he has only unleashed the tip of the iceberg of the Apocalypse Device’s power.

Li Ang pointed with his index finger, and the wind spear, as light as nothing, transformed into a blue light plummeting down, piercing the back of the Demon Remains. In an instant, the previously stagnant wind elements erupted together, forming an endless whirlwind of sharp blades, contracting as they pierced towards the Evil King Demon Remains.

"Arghhhh——!"

The hollow crimson thorn body of the Demon Remains was pierced by the Terminal Wind Spear, with the compressed wind becoming a chisel, spiraling the ground into a deep pit.

When the wind dispersed, the Demon Remains lay in the pit, and the Apocalypse Spear exhausted its power, ultimately disintegrating.

"Not bad."

Lily praised Li Ang.

"But that thing can’t be killed. I’ve shattered its body before."

As the black-haired young girl said, the Demon Remains slowly raised its body, the curse spreading over it, more thorns regenerated, filling the pierced parts. Unable to fill them quickly enough, it appeared even more menacing and terrifying.

Seeing the Demon Remains rise, Li Ang raised the Orichalcum again, but Lily stretched out her hand to stop him.

"Don’t use too much magic against it, it will be countered."

The Dragon God Witch tugged at the slit black robe resembling a nun’s habit: "It’s better to focus on physical attacks."

Lily made a starting gesture as if preparing for a fist technique, having encountered it before, she already knew the attack pattern of the opposite side.

Li Ang nodded, the Legendary Level law left behind by that thing seemed like a law that analyzes magic and optimizes its structure, paired with its spell-stealing ability, perfectly turning it into a formidable enemy enhancing its own path and returning it.

No wonder during the time he still lived, he dared to call himself the Divine King. This pairing did not need to achieve any great feats; on the battle level, it indeed formed a set of impeccable logic.

If Li Ang didn’t have the Apocalypse Spear, the gale force of Diao being countered would have already caused great damage to his side, and the Apocalypse Device magic was suppressed just in time, leaving no chance for spell-stealing, but still requires caution.

The hollow eyes of the Demon Remains suddenly shimmered with a magical glow, a pale base mixed with low-saturation rainbow light, suddenly radiating countless magic light spheres.

Each of these spheres contained dreadful power; all were 8-tier powerful magical bombardments, likely spells Arunak had stolen throughout his life.

Now, it couldn’t precisely control the magic but still could form a mixed barrage of multiple secret techniques.

The Demon Remains was like a magic cannon, secret technique light spheres continuously launching from its body, the sharp claws also assisting in creating magical attacks. Within a few breaths, the barrage had already blanketed the sky.

Such a level of attack... even a Sky Cavalry formed by Excellence Realm strong ones, without corresponding defense means, would be annihilated amongst it.

Fortunately, Li Ang reached this point; whether it’s self-capability complemented or prepared by the Ten Thousand Spirits for him, he already had the most suitable countermeasure.

The crimson arm behind him flew up to the sky, targeting the secret technique barrage and emitting a spreading Spiritual Casting Wave.

Dissolving Fluctuation.

Originally, it was the Crimson Demon using this move against Li Ang, nullifying all his regular attacks.

Just as Lily broke a few spells with fists and feet, the fluctuation swept from behind her to the front, silently extinguishing an entire wave of attacks directed at her.

The black-haired young girl was startled, observing the dense barrage was negated like encountering a moving wall. Due to their density, as the magical light burst collectively, the arc of dissolving fluctuation pushing forward was clearly visible.

Conducted from the Spiritual Level dismantling, as long as one cannot oppose the Spirit Casting Art, any large-scale attack becomes ineffective.

Though theoretically clear, experiencing the effect of the Spirit Casting Art himself, Li Ang still felt a sense of unreality.

As he dissolved the barrage, Lily had already approached the Evil King Demon Remains, transformed into a Dragon Claw, she kicked off a crimson arm in the midst of casting spell-stealing.

Although spending a few extra seconds observing Li Ang due to the dissolving fluctuation, she possessed battle intuition akin to Zoe’s, her actions unhampered by internal shock.

Next, the transformed tiger Diao, surrounded by soil armor, Inanna, both reached the Demon Skeleton before them.

The three attacked together, the Demon Remains spread its heavy arms, thorns forming sharp claws, clashing with the trio.

Li Ang cast Spiritual Activation on them, their close-range attacks forming phantoms, temporarily immobilizing the Demon Remains.

"Wow, what is this?!"

Lily felt the power surging from within while attacking, she exclaimed in surprise. Both her legs and shoulders transformed with dragon scale and claw-like purple skin, unable to fully transform into Bahamut descent state, yet far stronger than before.

However, Arunak’s spirituality hadn’t diminished, Li Ang saw the Creation Formula’s divine light operating within its hollow skeletal body, the divine light rune swiftly creating yet unfixed crimson thorns inside it.
