Chapter 160: The Great Sword of Chaos Descends into the World
"Great Sword of Chaos, heed my summoning!"
*Boom!*
Suddenly, an enormous burst of chaotic power erupted from Leon's body, forming a windstorm-like vortex that extended up to ten kilometers.
*Whoosh!*
Shortly after, the power of the chaos vortex, spanning ten kilometers, surged into the sky at an astonishing speed, creating a terrifying phenomenon like a tornado and obliterating everything in its path.
High above, Liliana watched in horror and astonishment, her eyes widening at the sight.
"Such a strong power!" Liliana exclaimed in disbelief.
It was the first time she had witnessed such a dominating and devastating force. Even the holy power of heroes, widely regarded as the most potent force in the world, seemed feeble in comparison.
Moreover, she felt an uncanny familiarity with this power, similar to the black aura she had just released.
Her gaze instinctively darted toward Leon, who stood at the epicenter of the terrifying power with one hand raised. Suddenly, she realized with shock that Leon's appearance had completely transformed!
His snow-white hair, ice-pale skin, and once-golden eyes have now turned purple-sapphire, leaving Liliana dumbfounded.
"This is... What's going on? Why did Leon's entire appearance change like this?" Liliana rubbed her eyes with her left hand, hoping she was mistaken.
Yet when she looked back at Leon, she realized his transformation was real; she hadn't seen it wrong!
"How could..." Liliana frowned, utterly confused, with no answers at all.
His sudden transformation and the purplish-black power he was emitting, which was not holy power, made her feel that something was terribly wrong.
Involuntarily, she recalled Leon's earlier words when she questioned why his holy power was spiraling out of control.
The connection between this and his request for potent illusion magic and detection-preventing spells allowed her to instantly grasp the truth.
"It must have something to do with him losing control of his holy power and his consciousness..." Liliana muttered under her breath, her confusion and astonishment gradually subsiding.
Earlier, Leon had explained to her that there was a complicated matter behind why he lost control of his holy power, promising to disclose it later.
Therefore, instead of dwelling on her confusion, she resolved to direct all her attention to maintaining the magic she had cast and keeping a vigilant eye on anyone who dared to disturb Leon at this critical moment.
*Bang!*
Just as Liliana emerged from her reverie, a sudden explosion in the sky startled her once again.
Quickly, she lifted her gaze and witnessed the immense black eye magic she had conjured shatter instantly, obliterated by the purplish-black power emanating from Leon's body.
Watching the scene unfold, her eyes widened in astonishment, and she murmured in disbelief, "How could it disintegrate so easily?"
The magic of the enormous black eye looming above the sky is of an ancient level, the highest echelon of magic, impervious to destruction save for an equivalent level of magical power.
Yet, the purplish-black power Leon emitted had easily obliterated it, leaving her feeling as if she were in a dream.
After a moment, Liliana snapped out of her reverie, taking a small breath as her expression turned serious.
"No, I'm surprised, but I can't afford to daydream," Liliana whispered, patting her face.
The enormous black eye magic, just destroyed by Leon, served as a detection deterrent. Its destruction meant anyone in the world could now sense the terrifying phenomenon Leon had unleashed, and preventing this became her top priority, no matter the cost.
Without delay, Liliana raised her Magic Staff of Eternal Disaster high and closed her eyes.
"Ancient Level Magic: Devil's Eye—"
As she prepared to cast her spell, an immensely terrifying pressure suddenly descended from the skies, causing the entire space within a hundred kilometers to tremble violently, as if on the verge of shattering at any moment.
Under this overwhelming pressure, Liliana's body stiffened, her expression turning to horror, halting her spellcasting midway.
"What is this?" she muttered fearfully, struggling to lift her gaze, only to see a speck of purplish-black light descending from the sky.
Though it appeared small, the speck of purplish-black light carried a terrifying pressure, making her feel an imminent and deadly threat.
As the speck of light slowly descended, Liliana could finally see it clearly at a lower height, causing her face to turn in amazement.
"What? A sword?" she exclaimed.
***
Meanwhile, Leon, upon witnessing the arrival of the Great Sword of Chaos, smiled faintly and swiftly withdrew all the chaos power he had unleashed back into himself.
*Buzz!*
The Great Sword of Chaos, hovering above the sky, swiftly descended and halted right in front of Leon, emanating a purplish-black aura around its blade.
Observing this, Leon chuckled softly and grasped the hilt of the sword, jesting, "Are you so eager to meet me?"
*Buzz!*
The purplish-black light it emitted flickered, conveying its joy and eliciting a slight chuckle from Leon.
As he contemplated further communication with it, Liliana's telepathic voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Leon, are you alright?"
Startled momentarily, Leon's lips curled into a smile as he closed his eyes slowly.
"Don't worry, Liliana. I'm fine. Just wait a moment because I still have something to attend to," he replied softly.
"Alright, and if you need anything, let me know immediately." Liliana's voice echoed in his mind before fading away.
Slowly, Leon opened his eyes, a smile lingering on his lips.
"Liliana is truly something," he said softly, shaking his head.
He understood that Liliana must have been shaken by witnessing his actions, her curiosity likely causing unease.
However, instead of questioning his actions, she voiced concern for his well-being, a testament to Liliana's deep love and trust, profoundly touching Leon.
"Having a woman like her is truly a blessing to me," Leon whispered, exhaling a small sigh.
Taking a deep breath, Leon gazed at the Great Sword of Chaos in his hand and ran his fingers along the blade, observing its striking resemblance to the Holy Sword of Zenith.
"Are you ready?" Leon asked softly, his tone light.
*Buzz!*
The sword hummed with excitement, as if it had been anticipating Leon's question a long time ago.
With a slight nod, Leon unleashed his chaos power once again, but this time it surged with twice the intensity as before!
However, this newfound intensity inflicted agonizing pain throughout his entire body, leaving his face pallid and blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, resembling someone on the brink of death.
After all, his control over the power of chaos remained imperfect, still in its early stages.
Sensing Leon's distress, the Great Sword of Chaos broke free from his grasp, hovering above his head and emitting a brilliant purplish-black light.
The emergence of this light alleviated the pain coursing through Leon's body, bringing him a sense of relief and allowing him to relax.
With a faint smile on his lips and his beautiful sapphire-purple eyes glinting in the moonlight, Leon raised one hand and called out loudly, "Come on, let's begin!"
