As he caught its handle reflexively, a trace of surprise appeared on her face, "This... I can sense pure divine essence inside, one that is void of the soul but its purity could be compared to the Xuanyuan sword, the greatest sword under the heavens. Just by grabbing it, my divine energy's recovery has sped up multiple times and that pressure from this realm has completely disappeared from my body.
I can even fight with my full strength now. What weapon is this? It could even change its appearance." Her face was filled with disbelief.
Mark didn't tell her anything about it and simply said, "Just lending it to you for now. I need you to fly back to both of them while cutting down those remnant energies on the way, and." He then glanced at the demon king who made a disgusting face in its presence and stepped away, "I need both of you to reach around 1 kilometer high, above those beasts."
"Okay, but what's your plan?" Bael frowned. If Yuanlong wasn't there, Bael wouldn't have to worry. But, its presence is putting enormous pressure on his soul. The fact that Yuanlong hates demons doesn't help it either. Going near them at the moment means a significant risk of death for him.
To which, Mark simply smiled, "Just trust me and go. With the majestic helper keeping him at bay, we cannot miss this chance."
"Alright" "Fine"
Both, Chang'e and Bael, despite being oblivious to his plan, trusted his intelligence and charged into the sky.
As they neared, Yuanlong shouted, "Don't come near and stay away." They didn't heed her warning and just flew toward them.
Leviathan put more strength in his hands and pushed away Yuanlong a bit before aiming at them with his mouth, "Die."
A blast of energy flew toward Chang'e and Bael. The demon king responded by shooting three beams from its three heads, striking the energy blast at the same time.
Chang'e then swung the sword by pouring her mana into it (what other people call the ether energy outside the mortal plane of existence due to the lack of ether crystal concept).
The sword turned her mana into divine energy, cutting down the remnant energy blast.
Almost reaching their destination, roughly 800 meters away in the sky, from the beasts, which towered hundreds of meters, Bael sent back the reply to Mark.
Mark, who was observing the two moving dots everything from far away, nodded with a smile, "Alright, let's do this."
His eyes shifted to the holographic screen, displaying the elemental skills, which he never bothered to use to their full potential as no situation ever arose. He clicked on a certain skill in the Space section.
"Location Swap, Bael." he disappeared.
With 11.9 points of strength, Mark's full-powered throwing speed had long crossed the required mach 40. It touched as high as mach 70 as it descended like lightning, striking Leviathan's back before it even got to react to the unknown object it sensed a fraction of a second ago.
All it took was 0.26 seconds to strike the target, before releasing three times his expected energy release, enveloping not only Leviathan but also Yuanlong that was in the radius.
Kinetic energy, Heat energy, Sound Energy, and even Electromagnetic energy; several types of energies were released, pushing away Mark and Chang'e to even higher altitudes, Yualong to slide several hundred meters away, and Leviathan to be submerged under the sea of lava while being crushed under the weight of the box. Gravity Dome was also nullified at the same time.
Mark, who helplessly flew away without feeling much strength in his right arm, was eventually grabbed by Chang'e and slowly flew down toward the islet near Yuanlong, who transformed back into a humanoid dazzling female, enveloped by a thick golden aura.
"You did it, Shang Zhen," Chang'e rejoiced on the way, as the beast didn't resurface, although still in the sea.
Mark, with his arm over her neck, weakly responded with a smile, "I told you, didn't I?"
It was at this moment that Yuanlong's voice echoed in their ears, "Careful..."
"Huh?" Before Chang'e reacted to it, claws were seen pierced into Mark's back and came out of his body from the front.
"Ugh..."
Mark spat out blood.
Chang'e facial expression was frozen in shock as Mark flew away. As she turned her head, she saw Leviathan in a humanoid form with Mark hanging in between its claws motionlessly.
*Ding! Your heart is damaged. Attempting to control the blood circulation
*Ding! Your lungs are damaged. Attempting to circulate the airflow.
*Ding! Energy is insufficient. System is going to shut down in ten seconds.
Mark stopped breathing.
*Screech*
