Chapter 134 Chapter 133-The Might of Demi-God?2nd update, Cheer me with Power Stones!?
In Fias's memory, the highest level skill a human could master was only demi-god level.
Even if this human in front of him was somewhat special, able to use one or two divine skills, his proficiency wouldn't be that high.
So far, John had shown the Eye of Artemis and Seashield, these two Divine Talents.
But these two skills, one auxiliary and one defensive, were pretty average in Fias's view.
He assumed John's attack skills wouldn't be too powerful either.
Fias was quite confident in himself.
It was well known that the defensive capability of dragons was always top-notch in the Godslayer continent.
Let alone Fias, the ancestor of fire dragons and the highest-ranking among dragon kind.
His scales had already lit up in red.
Although the red glow at the chest area was slightly dim, it wouldn't affect the overall defensive ability too much.
However, Fias waited for a long time, but John didn't make a move.
The fire dragon gradually grew impatient.
John suddenly looked up at him with a strange smile, "The skill I'm about to release won't directly attack you, but it will trap you. It'll be up to you whether you can break free."
Fias shook his huge head, bellowing, "Bring it on..."
John lifted his hand, and a mysterious light suddenly lit up at his fingertips.
[You have released skill: Abyssal Prison!]
[Abyssal Prison (divine skill): A gift from the Warden of the Abyss. After releasing this skill, it can seal and imprison a space within a 1000-yard radius. The skill user can freely modify the Order parameters within this space, controlling all basic elements except for space-time...]
Yes, the skill that John carefully selected was the Abyssal Prison.
It was the same one that had almost driven the trackers from the Darklord and Wolf Guild to the brink of collapse on the prairie earlier.
The space twisted and transformed in an instant, eventually forming a cubic dark area that tightly enveloped Fias.
At this moment, Fias's complexion changed drastically.
Even his voice was filled with anger, "This is... the Abyssal Prison?! Damn it, you, a human, dare to deceive me. You said you were from the lawful and righteous human faction. Why would you use this wicked skill from the abyss?"
His massive dragon body glowed as it flitted around within the Abyssal Prison, but it couldn't break through the prison's seal.
Fias's anger intensified, and his golden vertical pupils seemed to be dyed with a shade of furious flame.
The all-night battle with the abyss thousands of years ago had left him with deep impressions of some of the wicked skills from the abyss, including this signature skill from the Warden of the Abyss, the Abyssal Prison.
On the battlefield, many demigod-level warriors were trapped alive by the Abyssal Prison, which only stoked Fias's anger.
The full-blown attack of a demigod-level powerhouse was terrifyingly powerful.
At this moment, the entire space was trembling violently.
Even separated by the Abyssal Prison and the Seashield erected by John, Fias's power still influenced the outside world.
The originally quietly flowing sea of magma was now boiling madly, like it had been set on fire.
With no other choice, John reached out and protected Emma, who was currently merging with the fire god's power and classing up.
Whether this power would affect the outside world was no longer within John's considerations.
At this moment, at the halfway point of Twin Volcano, Adam, Blue Sea, and others who had been quietly waiting suddenly felt an overwhelming power slowly rising from beneath their feet.
The ground began to shake violently, and huge rocks tumbled down the hillside from time to time.
The cracks spreading throughout the Twin Volcano also began to widen.
Adam, Blue Sea, and others exchanged glances and hastily held onto their teammates to prevent them from accidentally falling into the lava-filled cracks due to the severe shaking.
"My god, what's happening?"
"Is the volcano going to erupt?"
"Damn it, I don't want to die here..."
Adam and Blue Sea looked at each other, and both turned their heads to look at the peak.
Sure enough, the once calm volcano mouth, which was only emitting black smoke, had undergone a huge change.
A large amount of lava, mixed with dust and smoke, was gushing out from the volcano mouth.
It was a good thing that the mountain was riddled with cracks.
All the lava flowing down from the peak was absorbed by them.
Otherwise, they would have all met their end here.
The group watched in terror as they looked towards the peak.
"What on earth did that Galewind big shot do at the top of the mountain to cause such a commotion?" People started discussing in hushed voices.
Adam and Blue Sea were fraught with worry. "Did Brother Galewind really engage in battle with that demigod-level creature?" Adam muttered anxiously.
Blue Sea shook his head, "I don't know, but considering the commotion, he probably couldn't avoid it..."
The two exchanged bitter smiles.
Only they knew what kind of monster John would be facing at the volcano's mouth, and this information couldn't be disclosed to others.
If they did reveal it, most of the people present would probably faint from fear.
Within the depths of the magma, John shook his head a bit helplessly, "Could you not let your emotions control your judgement and actually feel if this Abyssal Prison truly is a product of the abyss?"
Fias, trapped within, paused at his words. In fact, he also had many doubts.
He had sensed a lot of divine power from gods of the same faction emanating from the human before him.
If this human was from the chaotic evil faction, how could he possibly receive the favor of so many gods from his own faction?
Fias closed his eyes and focused on his senses, then his face showed surprise.
"This... the energy that built this space, why is it so orderly? I can't detect even a trace of chaotic or evil energy..."
Fias's already deep voice, after being filtered through the Abyssal Prison, sounded even more bass, humming in resonance.
John slightly smiled and calmly said, "That's because this isn't the Abyssal Prison at all, I just followed the release procedure of the Abyssal Prison when building it."
Fias shook his head, his face full of confusion, "This is impossible. The Abyssal Prison is the unique skill of the Warden of the Abyss. Nobody else can understand this skill, not even gods..."
John said nonchalantly, "Just because others can't doesn't mean I can't. You're seeing it now, aren't you..."
Fias finally stopped his futile attempts at breaking out.
He hovered in the center of the Abyssal Prison.
His golden vertical pupils occasionally flashed a crimson light.
John smiled in satisfaction.
This fire dragon, who had lived for who knows how many years, truly had exceptional intelligence.
Once it calmed down, it found the correct way out.
John hadn't used abyssal energy to build the abyssal prison.
Instead, he innovatively chose to use another divine power as a medium to release this skill. His intention was not to cause misunderstanding for Fias.
Which, in turn, would impact Emma's job change.
However, using another divine power to construct the Abyssal Prison does have some conflicts when it comes to power mediums.
This has led to a slight flaw in the prison.
Next, it depends on whether Fias can unravel the mystery and find that one loophole.
Fias is focused, the red glow on its scales gradually disappearing, but the golden vertical pupils are getting brighter.
Fias is very clear.
There are only two ways to forcefully crack the Abyssal Prison.
One is by using an absolutely overpowering energy to break through from the outside in one spot, smashing the barrier of the Abyssal Prison.
The second method is to deconstruct all the Orders from the inside, straighten out the chaotic series of Orders.
If you can restore the previous order sequence, the Abyssal Prison would break itself.
Being trapped in a cage, Fias can only choose the second method.
But while it sounds simple, it's incredibly difficult to accomplish.
At least in Fias's memory, no demigod creature has ever managed this.
This small space has thousands, if not millions of disrupted Orders.
The fundamental elements of the universe, the purifying elements, the basic rules, all are in chaos within this prison.
For Fias to straighten these Orders, it's basically like finding the right end of a thread in a tangled ball of yarn.
John propped his chin, letting Fias work on deconstructing the Orders.
Suddenly, John asked in a casual tone, "Right, isn't it supposed to be by activating your teeth that we can wake you from your slumber? Why were you already awake before we arrived?"
Without lifting his head, Fias, still engrossed in the Orders, answered John's question seriously, "A while back, a group of weak humans holding Divine Scrolls from my master invaded the depths of Twin Volcano. Their disrespectful actions forced me to awaken from my slumber..."
John suddenly realized why this dragon, still nursing its wounds, had interrupted its healing sleep.
Thinking about the state of the corpses on the mid-mountain platform, as well as his own experience being attacked by Heartfire, John finally understood how that small faction had been completely wiped out...
"So, those bodies outside, they're your handiwork?" John frowned.
The dragon in front of him was usually peaceful, it shouldn't be so bloodthirsty.
Just then, Fias's voice rose sharply, "Those idiots, no better than ants, brought their own deaths!"
