Chapter 1495: Chapter 385: Earth Crisis Across Eras_3
Swoosh!
Right at that moment, a blazing white pillar of light erupted out of the drifting ash, and when the radiance dispersed, Nightmare Thorn’s figure reappeared completely unscathed.
Only its appearance had drastically changed.
The originally ghostly blue, semi-transparent body had transformed into a form composed purely of blinding white light.
The Void Light Dual Blades in its hands had turned into constantly surging Blazing White Light Whips, its entire body exuding a scorching, frenzied aura completely opposite to the previous chilling Deathly Silence.
Life Throat suddenly understood the meaning of the "Light and Shadow Dual Birth Rule" in Decomposition.
The Rule had granted Nightmare Thorn two Life forms, each existing in a different Space.
The instant the Shadow Form was slain was the moment the Light Form awakened, descending to take the Shadow Form’s place.
Its aura was even stronger and more violent than before.
If this were outside, when facing an opponent it couldn’t defeat, this second Life could choose to flee swiftly, or launch a lethal ambush.
But in the Soul Fighting Arena, even a second Life had to manifest and fight according to the Rules here.
There was simply nowhere to run.
Facing Nightmare Thorn in its second phase.
Life Throat didn’t hesitate in the slightest and raised his hand to point from afar.
But Nightmare Thorn moved first, at an even greater Speed.
Whoosh!
It instantly turned into a straight blazing white ray, abandoning its uncanny assassination style for a frenzied frontal Assault.
Wherever it passed, the surrounding mirrors were vaporized by the extreme heat.
Life Throat’s pupils contracted sharply as he raised his hand and traced out Space Array Patterns beneath his feet, flashing toward the left.
Boom!!!
The mirror he had just been standing on was struck directly by the Blazing White Light Whip and exploded in an instant, turning into countless molten fragments.
The terrifying shockwave blasted Life Throat away in the middle of his Space Jump.
Still in midair, Life Throat forcibly twisted his body, thrusting both hands forward.
In that instant, a thick Crystal Rock Shield and a spinning Water Vortex Shield stacked into existence together.
Almost at the exact moment the Shields formed, Nightmare Thorn’s figure appeared before him like a specter, both whips lashing out like venomous snakes in strangulation.
Snap!
Crack!
The Crystal Rock Shield lasted only a heartbeat before shattering with a thunderous crash.
The Water Vortex Shield twisted violently, barely deflecting part of the Light Whip’s force, but the remaining impact still slammed viciously into the Evil Wind Wall condensed in front of Life Throat.
Pff!
Life Throat felt a sweet taste rise in his throat as his body was hurled backward at even greater Speed.
He crashed hard into a massive floating mirror, driving spiderweb-like cracks through it.
He had no time at all to catch his breath; Nightmare Thorn’s pursuit was already upon him.
At this moment, Nightmare Thorn had completely abandoned defense, transforming into a raging blazing white storm. Its dual whips lashed madly, countless scorching beams of light pouring down like a torrential storm, blanketing every possible Space Life Throat could dodge into.
The deadly radiance filling the sky was reflected in Life Throat’s pupils, yet his expression remained calm.
Relying on the Evil Wind shrouding his body, he kept sliding laterally, both hands weaving at a dizzying Speed.
A series of ice mirrors condensed in front of him in an instant, only to be blown apart just as quickly by the Light Whips.
Earthen walls manifested out of thin air one after another, only to be vaporized in an instant, reverted back into Earth Elemental Particles and scattered.
Even twisted Space barriers were torn apart by the raging Energy the moment they formed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions boomed ceaselessly within the Void arena, violent light flaring again and again.
Life Throat was like a lone skiff in a storm, every block and dodge skirting the razor’s edge.
Before the frenzied Nightmare Thorn, he was completely suppressed.
He could only rely on his endless Elemental Manipulation techniques and Combat Instinct to barely hold on.
Several times, the blazing Light Whips brushed past his neck, heart, and other vital points; the searing heat they carried made his skin sting sharply.
Once, a white ray pierced through the Triple Defense he had hastily erected, leaving a charred hole in his shoulder blade as a wave of agony surged through him.
But Life Throat’s gaze remained icy; the sharp pain only made his mind even clearer.
In its Light Form, Nightmare Thorn’s Assaults were frenzied, but it had lost the concealment and trickery of the Shadow Form; its Attack Mode had become singular.
However, in this close-quarters state, he had no opening to release the Binding Characteristic.
He could only regret not inlaying the "Mark" Life Soul in advance; otherwise he wouldn’t be this passive.
After he forcibly withstood hundreds of wild Assaults, his spiritual power rapidly draining and his situation on the brink of collapse—
Nightmare Thorn brought its twin whips together, condensing them into an extremely compressed blazing white thunderbolt, carrying an offensive Momentum to annihilate everything.
This strike sealed off all his avenues of retreat.
But this was precisely the opportunity Life Throat had been waiting for.
Facing a sure-kill blow, he not only didn’t retreat, he suddenly stepped forward.
He strode straight toward the incoming blazing white thunderbolt.
Seizing that fleeting instant, his gaze locked onto a broken mirror fragment floating in the Void far away.
At once, Teleportation.
Life Throat instantly appeared several hundred meters away, while a broken mirror fragment now occupied his original position.
The reason he didn’t choose to swap Nightmare Thorn in to take his own formula.
Was because the effect of the Star Shifting Attribute was influenced by his own Qi Blood Strength.
His Physical fitness was far inferior to Nightmare Thorn’s; swapping directly with it would have drained his HP bar in an instant, to the point where he might not even complete the Teleportation.
The optimal choice was to swap with another target that was guaranteed to succeed.
Boom!
A terrifying explosion erupted where he had just been.
The destructive Energy shockwave spread outward in a ring, and every mirror along its path, regardless of size, was ground into dust.
Life Throat decisively turned, rapidly generating multiple layers of Elemental defense walls to block the impact of the remaining Energy.
Amid the raging torrent of Energy, Life Throat swiftly raised his hand and pointed toward Nightmare Thorn’s back.
A barely perceptible transparent Spirit Shock Wave slithered out like a venomous snake, threading precisely through the gaps in the colliding Energies, striking Nightmare Thorn in an instant as it fell briefly exhausted after unleashing its sure-kill ultimate.
