Traveler of the River of Time and Space-Chapter 409 - 25: The Power of the Lord of Cinder

A pair of cold, ferocious eyes glowing red stared at Su Ziyu.

The wolf blood of the Falan Undead Squad all converged on the Undead Squad Captain, and the corruption of their members polluted by the Abyss also reassembled, turning this Lord of Cinder into a state of Abyssal Erosion.

No wonder they were unwilling to return to the Fire Transmission Ritual Site.

Their last shred of rationality must have realized that when the wolf blood gathered, turning them into Lords, they themselves would become claws of the Abyss.

Buzz.

With the sharp sound of air being pierced, the Undead Squad Captain suddenly leaped, his figure flashing in midair, and the moment he swung the Flame Greatsword down, a surge of intense flames spread like a shockwave, bringing an astonishing burning sensation. With a bang, the ground showed a spider-web-like crack about ten meters in diameter.

Su Ziyu and Sister Fried rolled to the sides to dodge nearly instantaneously, while behind them, the heavy closed door of the Falan Fortress Hall shattered into pieces and collapsed.

"Such strong power!"

"Is this a Lord of Cinder that has been burnt once?"

"If he hasn’t been burnt yet, how strong would he be?"

Su Ziyu’s left palm gathered a Thunder Spear and, without hesitation, he hurled it forward.

Bang.

A muffled thunder exploded in the hall.

The Undead Squad Captain in front almost instantaneously raised his sword to block the Thunder Spear, with golden electric light flowing along his body, yet without any effect. Instead, the flames on him became even hotter as he swung the Flame Greatsword in a sweeping arc, flames rising from the ground and rapidly spreading towards Su Ziyu.

The flames nearly ignited the entire hall, leaving Su Ziyu with few places to stand.

Drink!

A sharp voice came from mid-air as Sister Fried soared into the air, her left hand revealing her second scythe. The scythe emitted a crystalline white light, and at the moment of her slash landing, visible frost spread along the ground, covering a range of tens of meters ahead, then transformed into sharp ice spikes, not only extinguishing the flames of the Falan Undead Squad, but leaving traces of icy erosion on the Lord of Cinder.

The enemy’s attack range is too far.

Su Ziyu realized his weapons were shorter than the opponent’s, whether it be the Yirushir Straight Sword or the Dark Greatsword, neither had any obvious advantage against the opponent’s extremely large-scale attacks.

Clang.

In the dull clash sound, sparks flew, and Su Ziyu’s figure directly retreated a few steps, stabilizing his stance he had already switched to the Dragon-Hunting Spear.

——"Thunder Spear!"

Crackling electric light flashed, Su Ziyu did not throw the Dragon-Hunting Spear in his hand, instead, he slightly moved back towards the outside of the hall.

Clang clang clang.

Sister Fried had already engaged the Lord of Cinder from the Undead Squad several times. As a fully burned ember, even if she entered the Residual Flame Form, she didn’t gain a significant advantage. The Lord of Cinder’s life force was far superior to other undead, and even if hit, it wasn’t affected much. The Abyssal erosion seemed to further strengthen this Lord of Cinder’s power, and some restriction abilities were completely ineffective against him.

But his attack threat is great, even if Su Ziyu successfully parried, he wouldn’t be unharmed.

Even the strength of a Giant wasn’t much more than this.

Boom!

The Undead Squad Captain swung the Great Sword down again, a surge of intense flames spreading like sword qi which directly exploded on the hall wall, causing the thick wall to shatter and revealing a gap several meters long amidst the collapse.

Within the flames.

Sister Fried took out an Elemental Bottle and drank.

The swordsmanship of the Falan Undead Squad is quite ferocious but has an obvious flaw, which is the overly wide range of moves, providing space for the two to dodge. Basically, the Flame Greatsword hadn’t hit the two much, all injuries were caused by the flames raised when the Great Sword was swung.

"We need to find a way to lure him out," Su Ziyu said solemnly.

The space inside the hall is limited.

Now there’s hardly any place to stand, the bizarre dark red flames are full of erosion, even standing in them is taxing for Su Ziyu.

The smaller the space,

The more powerful the opponent’s swordsmanship becomes, because there’s nowhere to hide, only to endure the flames and fight him.

Sister Fried nodded slightly, leaping and running vertically on the wall, she quickly followed behind Su Ziyu and rushed out. Behind her, the Undead Squad turned Lord of Cinder hesitated for a moment, his remaining rationality turned to glance at a pitch-black entrance behind him, and then gripped the Flame Greatsword burning with intense flames and followed them out.

There’s something down there.

The mission of the Falan Undead Squad is to suppress them, even if they’ve been eroded by the Abyss, they still remember their mission.

Bam!

A dull gunshot rang out.

As the Undead Squad Captain’s body had just rushed out of the hall, Su Ziyu pulled out the Gauss Sniper Rifle and fired a shot.

A red beam came shooting over.

The Lord of Cinder met the shot with his body, an explosion at the heart location sprayed sparks, mingled with a thread of flames in the splattered blood, exposing the incomplete bones under the armor in the scattered ashes, but soon reassembled, even the armor was totally repaired.

This Lord of Cinder’s flesh and blood had long dried up, what made up his body wasn’t flesh and blood, but ashes burned in the initial fire. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Boom.

Su Ziyu’s shot didn’t affect the opponent’s combat power. The Undead Squadron turned Lord of Cinder rushed forward without hesitation, brandishing the Flame Greatsword, engendering flames like an arc of sword qi, setting the dry and decayed ground alight.

Clearly, this shot was effective, the Undead Lord of Cinder locked onto Su Ziyu as the most threatening target.

"Damn it!"

"Why can’t this thing shoot repeatedly?" Su Ziyu put away the Gauss Sniper Rifle, using Spiritual Energy to rapidly slide back to evade.

The surging flames chased him relentlessly, forcing him to fly upwards.

Flying?

The remaining rationality of the Undead Lord of Cinder made him hesitate momentarily, frowning, he watched Su Ziyu in the sky, grabbing the blade of his Great Sword directly.

Slight traces of blood emerged.

Sparks rolled in the blood.

When the Undead Lord of Cinder waved his hand again, a surge of intense flames shot out like arrows, causing Su Ziyu to retreat dozens of meters.

"Careful!"

"He seems to still remember Falan’s magic!" Sister Fried’s figure suddenly appeared behind the enemy, wielding her Giant Scythe to slash at his neck.

She said urgently, "The Falan Undead Squad once received instruction from the Wise Ones of the Great Library."

"They’ve mastered some unique spells!"

——"Falan Arrow Rain!"

With the words spoken,

The Lord of Cinder in front directly thrust his Great Sword into the ground, instantly the surrounding flames started to converge, transforming into hundreds of Flaming Arrows showering towards all directions.
