Chapter 535 The Undying Vs The Eternal Darkness (8)

Even though the Tyrant of Destruction had been severely injured, he gained a tremendous enhancement in strength thanks to the Blood Eclipse Moon that was shining high above the Colosseum's arena.

That way, it was possible for him to fight a little bit longer against the Undying before he would be finally defeated.

The crimson moonlight of the Blood Eclipse Moon enhanced the might of Nial and his subordinates, while Dilan noticed some negative effects that began to affect him after some time passed.

Despite the effects of the Blood Eclipse Moon that affected everyone in the arena, particularly adversely to the Undying, he had been able to defeat Tyrant of Destruction.

However, that was only obvious. The Tyrant of Destruction had somehow survived a three-meter-long cut across his chest that ran from under his left collarbone to his abdomen diagonally, cleanly severing it. His body would have fallen apart into two if not for darkness that held it together

It was already a wonder that Tyrant was still standing on his feet, let alone that he could still fight against Dilan head-on for several more minutes.

The Undying was shocked beyond measure while fighting the Tyrant when Nial's subordinates launched their last attacks during the battle.

Their fight showed quite clearly that the Tyrant of Destruction was willing to sacrifice his life by throwing himself into the pits of hell the moment Nial would ask him to do so. Nial's words were Tyrant's commands and he would follow them no matter what the consequences.

When the Tyrant was on the verge of death, he dispersed into darkness that merged with Nial's body.

The Tyrant was not killed, which gave him the opportunity to heal and be of use again later. However, instead of doing something like that, Nial rather did something else. He initiated the plan he had come up with when his mind was calm and composed.

Nial had analyzed the battle of the Tyrant against the Undying because of various reasons. First of all, Tyrant wanted to fight the Undying all by himself to figure out how strong Dilan was. Second, Nial figured out a few things that interested him about the body and constitution of the Undying. Analyzing them gave him a better understanding of the Undying's strengths and capabilities.

And last but not least important, Nial had come up with his own plan to defeat the Undying using the result of his analysis. Everything was prepared the moment Dilan defeated the Tyrant, which was a perfect time to activate the true effects of the Blood Eclipse Moon!

Nial had to prepare a lot to unleash the Blood Eclipse Moon in its full size. It was not difficult to materialize his ability when it was relatively smaller in size but it had been a long time since Nial used more crimson moonlight than he could absorb within a single night to enhance his attacks.

It was because of this simple fact that his Blood Eclipse Moon was larger than the Halheim shelter in its entirety…and the Halheim shelter had expanded quite a bit with more than 100,000,000 citizens calling it their home!

Dilan wasn't actually sure what the Blood Eclipse Moon was capable of in the beginning, but he was a little bit frustrated about Nial's calmness.

The Tyrant's suicidal actions didn't have much of an impact on Nial because nobody would actually die in the City of Trials. However, that was actually what prevented Dilan from fighting Nial with his full might.

The Eternal Darkness would have been much stronger if he would have gone berserk. Nial didn't show many emotions while fighting, which made it feel like the Eternal Darkness was a killing machine in a low energy consumption mode.

By releasing emotions, it was possible to become much stronger, even if it was only temporary. That was what Dilan was fairly certain about.

Yet, Nial never really showed any of that in the battle, which was why Dilan couldn't elicit a response from him. He seemed almost cold and aloof to Dilan's taunts and repeated returns from the door of death. He just could not force the Eternal Darkness to go all out and exhaust himself with various means…such as becoming the scapegoat and dying thousands of times.

Furthermore, Dilan was certain that the Eternal Darkness was stronger than him. It was quite obvious since one of the two Devils was already more than enough to hold him at bay for a long time.

To add to his growing frustration, the Eternal Darkness had stopped attempting to kill Dilan. On the contrary, Nial was fully focused on chaining down the Undying after the Tyrant had returned to the Heart of Darkness within his body.

That was the only way he could win against the Undying…by chaining him down, restricting his movements, and draining his life force without actually injuring him.

'I don't know the hidden effects of his Origin ability, so I have to use what I can!' Nial thought at that moment as he released a tremendous amount of the crimson moonlight that had been stored in the Blood Eclipse Moon.

As a result, Dilan's movement slowed down as the entire arena of the Colosseum turned crimson. The crimson moonlight empowered Nial's dark energy and every single move the Eternal Darkness made while doing exactly the same to Kaeldur.

On the other hand, Dilan felt as if a curse was put on him. His mana circulation was much slower than before and it was difficult for him to focus properly.

However, that was not the worst, because it felt like his True Undying Essence was slowly growing weaker as well. It was still fully charged but his regeneration had slowed down drastically.

This didn't hail from the crimson moonlight that shone down onto the two Fate Changers but because of Nial's newly created weapon against someone like the Undying.

Chains created mainly from the Essence of Darkness, crimson moonlight, and the Power of Chaos burst out of the ground around Nial.

They shot forward and pierced Dilan's leg after the Undying had been held down by hundreds of darkness vines.

The Chaos Darkness Essence chain had been altered through the influx of the crimson moonlight to inflict severe damage and they were rapidly draining the Undying's Life force.

It was only at this moment when Nial realized just how terrific the Undying's Life force truly was. No matter how much Life force was drained from the Undying's body, it showed no signs of disappearing and it was like Dilan was blessed with an endless pit of Life force.

Even though Nial was in possession of the Symbol of Life that had further evolved, he was certain that no living being was supposed to possess so much Life force, not while being at the third Tier!

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

'The amount of Life force rivals that of Yggdrasil…how can that even be?' Nial thought in shock, unable to understand how it was possible for the Undying to possess so much Life force.

However, Nial was not yet done attacking. He created another Chaos Darkness Essence chain that pierced through the other leg of the Undying draining double the amount of Life force at the same time.

Afterward, he used more dark energy vines to firmly hold Dilan back to the ground before more and more Chaos Darkness Essence Chains were created from the Essence of Darkness, Power of Chaos, and crimson moonlight which he had accumulated for exactly this purpose!

'If I cannot kill you, I will drain you until you wish you would be dead!!'
