Chapter 2071: Annihilation

When he heard what the radiant being said, Zu An was also a bit curious. Even this mysterious monster leader couldn't a.n.a.lyze the Snow Lady’s background... This woman really did seem unfathomable.

However, the Snow Lady wasn’t interested in replying to the radiant being’s question. She retorted, “Either way, I’m not a disgusting creature like you.”

While speaking, she already seemed to have resonated with the nearby mountains. In just an instant, avalanches crashed down from all of the snowy peaks. Endless waves of snow surged relentlessly before finally gathering together to form a snow dragon that roared and charged at the radiant being.

Such tremendous natural power really made Zu An sigh at the insignificance of human beings. At the same time, he began to admire the Snow Lady quite a bit. After all, she was seriously injured, but she was still able to release such a powerful attack.

The radiant being only slowly raised its hand toward the ferocious and overbearing ma.s.sive dragon of snow, saying, “And the Lord said, let there be light.”

As soon as it spoke, a tremendous amount of dazzling light engulfed the world. The huge dragon of ice and snow was enveloped within, releasing a painful scream as its entire body began to shake intensely. Its body began to melt at a visible rate. Soon after, it disappeared completely, snowflakes blowing away in the wind.

When she saw that, the Snow Lady was completely stunned. She hadn’t expected that the ultimate move she had been preparing this time would be defeated so easily.

Zu An was also a bit stunned. He could see a humanoid outline in the center of the blinding light, a figure who appeared to be coldly overlooking everything below. He was really alarmed now.

There’s no way this guy really is some G.o.d, right?

Even so, he quickly gave up on the thought, because it was definitely a monster who wanted to invade this world. How could it possibly be some sacred and holy G.o.d?

The radiant being looked at the two of them and said, “You two should now be convinced, right? There's no way you could be a match for me. Surrendering as soon as possible is your best option.”

Zu An chuckled and retorted, “If you’re really that strong, then why even bother talking so much to us? Isn’t it all to erode our fighting spirit and scare us into surrendering?”

When she heard what he said, the Snow Lady was surprised. She looked at Zu An and said, “I didn’t expect the monsters to be as crafty as you.”

Zu An was speechless.

Is this woman praising me or mocking me?

The radiant being stopped speaking for a moment. It didn’t seem to have antic.i.p.ated that Zu An would speak that way. A while later, it said, “I admire your confidence. But in that case, why are you hiding behind that hill? Do you not even have the courage to fight me face to face bravely?”

“There’s really no need for you to taunt me. I don’t need to face you to attack you,” Zu An said with a chuckle. He reached out his hand, and golden ripples appeared in the air. Their brilliance wasn't inferior in any way to the radiant being’s light.

The radiant being voiced its surprise. “A summoner? An interesting skill indeed.”

One after another, golden weapons appeared from the ripples. Then, they flew at the radiant being. Zu An was really glad that he had the Rune Weapon Chart, letting him attack from a distance without having to face his opponent directly. The weapons attacked the radiant being from all sorts of different angles. Zu An didn’t just use them as brute force artillery; instead, he made several weapons use sword techniques at the same time to coordinate with each other.

The sword skill Zu An was best at was none other than the Snowflake Sword. When she saw it, the Snow Lady cried out in surprise. She then began to think a bit to herself.

Zu An didn't pay her reaction any mind. All of his attention was taken up by controlling the various weapons to attack the radiant being. However, when the weapons entered the radiant being’s vicinity, they all slowed down and were no longer as responsive as before. It was hard for Zu An to even control them.

The radiant being didn’t treat the attacks with any importance. Its voice was full of contempt and ridicule as it said, “Not a bad skill. Unfortunately, the sword skills are only flowery and lack substance. The weapons are each fighting on their own and lack cooperation. It seems this low-level world has never even seen things like sword formations.”

Zu An was stunned. In the past, not many had been able to stop the endless rain of swords as soon as he used this move. Winning with brute strength naturally didn’t require any technique; but now that he was facing a stronger enemy, there was clearly no way he could win with just sheer force, and he could only try to win through technique. And yet, he hadn't expected that this sword technique, which he had done his best to bring out, would be so full of holes in the enemy’s eyes.

Indeed, the Snowflake Sword was designed to be used by an individual. When so many weapons were using it together, they could at most increase the technique's power additively. Now that the enemy had mentioned a sword formation, Zu An was stirred.

It seems there are definitely some powerful sword formations in this world.

“A sword formation, you say? I have those too.” Zu An harrumphed. He controlled the golden weapons and flew into the air. The sword tips pointed straight down, then poured down in the form of the Blue Luan Sword Formation skill. Countless weapons interwove in the air, faster than the eye could see. In that instant, the entire s.p.a.ce turned into a forbidden zone.

“Oh? This level of comprehension is quite high. That's a bit more interesting,” the radiant being said, no longer as indifferent as before. Instead, its body fired out a blinding barrier of light that shone upon everything within hundreds of meters.

Zu An’s eyes narrowed. His sword formation had completely stopped!

No, actually, they hadn't stopped. He could sense that his own weapons were flying toward their target with extreme speed. But to the naked eye, they appeared to be frozen in midair and not moving at all. With those two contradicting experiences appearing at the same time, even Zu An’s expression turned blank.

However, he had experienced all kinds of things, and together with his knowledge as a transmigrator, he quickly figured out the key issue. The reason for the seeming contradiction was because of the light’s interference. It formed a special s.p.a.ce in the surroundings that made all physical laws become chaotic and ineffective. It seemed like just a kilometer or so of distance, but in reality, there were countless layers of s.p.a.ce stacked on top of each other, creating endless distance in between. It was like a s.p.a.cecraft traveling through the cosmos - to people on Earth, it would appear extremely fast, but amid the boundless void of s.p.a.ce it would look as if it wasn't moving at all.

“This makes things much trickier,” Zu An muttered; he was getting a bit of a headache. Previously, the Bramble Bone Dragon and Iron Fist Rock had used powerful reflective or defensive skills. They were hard to deal with too, but at least he could hit them and kill them just by whittling them down. But this radiant being had countless spatial layers protecting him. It was impossible to hit him!

Fortunately, he had been able to learn about this skill through the sword formation. Otherwise, their battle could have reached a critical point before he found out, leading him to think that he was far closer to the enemy than he truly was. The consequences of that would have been severe.

Just then, the radiant being looked in Zu An’s direction and said, “You still came out in the end.”

Zu An was really alarmed. For the sake of seeing what was happening, he had unwittingly revealed the upper half of his body. He was now within the radiant being’s line of sight. He reflexively tried to dodge, but he was horrified to discover that he couldn't move his body. It was as if he had a freezing spell cast on him. He finally understood what that Bramble Bone Dragon had been talking about now. As long as you were seen by the radiant being, you wouldn't be able to move at all anymore and could only wait for it to finish you off.

“What a pity it is that you didn’t accept my recruitment offer. In that case, I can only help you... die.” The radiant being’s voice was cold, as if it was a judge that ruled over all things. It pointed in Zu An's direction, and a blinding pillar of light fell upon him.

As he sensed the annihilation intent behind the light, gooseb.u.mps covered Zu An’s body. Even though his body had been refined endless times and was now incredibly tough, there was no way it would end well for him if he was. .h.i.t by the pillar. Unfortunately, he was already within the opponent’s sight, so he couldn't use any of his skills anymore.

Suddenly, a snowstorm surged beneath Zu An's feet and swept around him, allowing him to barely avoid the destructive light. He was delivered to the neighboring peak. The snowstorm disappeared and turned into the Snow Lady. Both of them looked at the place they had just been. There was a several-meter-wide hole blown through it, with extremely sharp edges. There was no bottom visible, and it was impossible to tell how far it reached. There had been no sound when the light struck, either; it was as if all physical matter had been directly erased.
