Chapter 389: 385 True Seal

"Ptui!"

When such a distinct cleaving sound was heard in the skies above Cosmos, the storm of evil energy suddenly stalled, no longer surging.

Walls of evil energy turned into black mists tried to block that slash but were cleanly severed by the brilliant radiance of the Holy Sword.

And Lilith, protected by the evil energy, naturally suffered from that splendid strike.

"Drip..."

In the still air, the sound of dripping blood seemed so harsh that it drew a crimson streak from the chest of Evil God Lilith.

The Holy Sword penetrated Lilith’s chest and exited through her back, inflicting upon this Evil God a genuinely fatal injury.

Feeling the sensation of the strike, the first thing that came to Shane’s mind was not joy, but relief.

Indeed, he should be relieved.

Although Lilith lacked reasoning and consciousness, meaning she did not know how to hold back and would use her powers to their fullest to destruct, this aspect also posed a significant weak point in her.

At least, if Lilish had reasoning and consciousness, she wouldn’t have instinctively fought solely with her authority.

Because this Evil God only knew how to fight with authority, Shane was able to avoid being affected by her divine powers through the effect of the "Blessing."

If Lilith had reasoning and consciousness, facing the Holy Sword that could eradicate all evil, she certainly wouldn’t have used evil energy to defend herself.

Leaving everything to instinct, that naturally led to being rigid and inflexible, unable to adapt or respond to targeted attacks.

Under such conditions, Shane’s strike hit its mark successfully.

The radiance of the Holy Sword continuously purified the evil energy in Lilith, suppressing the dark and chaotic forces, causing the evil energy that enveloped Cosmos to tremble, on the verge of collapse.

Until...

"Boom—!"

In mid-air, a muffled sound of impact occurred.

Caught in his relief, Shane didn’t even have time to react before he was blasted away by a terrifying force, plummeting to the ground like a meteorite, crashing violently into the earth, shattering the ground in that area.

This strike came from Lilith’s Black Wings.

One of Lilith’s wings suddenly struck, blasting Shane away.

However, Shane’s Holy Sword still stayed embedded in Lilith’s chest, causing blood to continuously flow from her chest as her form inevitably descended from the sky to the ground.

"Cough cough...!"

Shane too pushed away the debris burying him, coughing as he climbed out of the deep crater.

Upon closer inspection, Shane’s mouth was actually dripping with blood.

Yes, Shane was injured.

Although the injury was not severe, he was indeed hurt.

"Damn it..."

Feeling a faint pain, Shane forced a bitter smile.

Lililth’s strike, even though weakened by 99% thanks to the protection of the Holy Sword, coupled with various resistance skills, still caused him injury?

How terrifying would it have been if he had taken the full brunt of that blow?

Shane dared not continue thinking about it.

Of course, such a degree of injury seemed to be a naturally acceptable price.

The truly fierce beings were most terrifying not at their usual times, but during their counter-attacks when close to death.

Lilith was now like a wounded beast, seemingly completely out of control.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"...

Bursts of roaring sounds ensued, and Lilith’s body continuously stirred up storms of evil energy, destroying everything around her.

However, the Holy Sword still in her chest was still having an effect, incessantly purifying and dispersing her evil energy, causing her only to ravage the surroundings uncontrollably, but unable to create such a massive scale of destructiveness.

If not for this, the rampaging Lilith, out of control, would definitely destroy the barrier and sink Duke Sterling’s Domain and even the entire Mitra Kingdom underground.

Now, the Holy Sword greatly suppressed her power, reducing her from an invincible destroyer to a significantly less threatening destroyer.

However, under the terrifying assault of Lilith’s storms of evil energy, Cosmos trembled repeatedly, with thousands of meters around Lilith constantly being subjected to impacts, pulverizing over and over.

"So, what should be done next?"

Shane held his chest and stood up, looking at Lilith who seemed to be frantically destroying everything, his thoughts racing.

And at that moment, a figure beside him quickly dashed towards him.

"What...!?"

Shane promptly noticed the figure, his face changed, and before he could react, he was embraced by the other.

Immediately after, Shane felt a pain in one of his arms.

The newcomer, without saying anything, raised his hand and bit down hard.

This bite completely ignored Shane’s resistance skills and left a clearly visible bite mark on Shane’s hand.

However, the next second, this bite mark abruptly changed, becoming a mark of some ancient pattern.

Shane couldn’t respond at all to all these actions taken by the girl in his arms, and he stood there dumbfounded.

In fact, not just Shane was stunned; the group of women, watching from a far distance in the mid-air, were also shocked.

"What!?"

Seeing the girl dive into Shane’s arms, leaving that patterned mark on Shane’s hand, the women were astonished.

Especially Anima.

"She... she actually entrusted the ’True Seal’?"

Anima was both shocked and incredulous at what she was seeing.

Not just Anima, but also Ai Yi, Lasha, and Laischa all widened their eyes slightly.

Shane naturally didn’t know about all this.

"Jade, you..."

Shane seemed a bit disheveled, somewhat taken aback.

Upon this, Jade, who suddenly rushed over and dove into Shane’s arms, just gave him a deep look before turning around and charging toward where Lilith was.

"————!"

Lilith seemed to have noticed Jade’s presence.

"Laaaaaaaaaaa——!"

The Goddess, who had been emotionless like a doomsday device all this time, suddenly let out a terrifying roar as if she had fallen into fury.

The roaring sound, like a crying girl, was both sharp and piercing, causing waves of Evil Energy to surge violently, like a tipping sky, overwhelmingly targeting Jade.

"Stop!"

Shane finally reacted, his expression changing repeatedly, and he immediately wanted to rush over.

But, before Shane could reach her, the Evil Energy collapsing from the sky above Jade suddenly halted, motionless.

Weak waves of Magic Power emanated from Jade’s body, which controlled the Evil Energy.

This was only to be expected.

Even the Magic Life created based on Jade could control Evil Energy and Evil Creatures to some extent, so how could the actual Jade not manage it?

She was Lilith’s half body, the rational and personal aspect of the Evil God, controlling Evil Energy as naturally as controlling her own power.

The so-called rationality was the consciousness and intellect used to control oneself.

Evil God Lilith does not restrain herself and only releases power indiscriminately without regard for friend or foe.

Jade, on the other hand, was born to control this power.

Thus, Jade charged at Lilith and threw herself at her.

Naturally, Lilith was not without reaction; black wings unfurled from her back, carrying a powerful blast as she prepared to strike toward Jade.

This blow, if it connected, would undoubtedly explode Jade on the spot into nothing but splattered blood and flesh.

"Holy Sword!"

Unable to just watch, Shane shouted out loud amidst the rush.

"Ding!"

The Holy Sword embedded in Lilith’s chest suddenly burst into brilliant light.

The light dispersed the darkness, blew away the Evil Energy, and significantly suppressed the power inside Evil God Lilith.

".....!"

The black wings that had ferociously attacked from Lilith’s back stalled.

Thanks to this, Jade managed to reach Lilith’s face.

Finally, contact was made.

"Hum!"

The atmosphere suddenly trembled violently.

In the trembling, Jade, like a streak of light and shadow, merged into Lilith’s body and disappeared.

No, she didn’t disappear; rather, she became one with Lilith.

After nearly ten thousand years, Jade finally returned to her origin, no longer a lonely spirit wandering outside.

However...

"Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa——!"

Lilith suddenly screamed in agony, holding her head and flapping her black wings into the sky.

"Boom, boom, boom...!"

Evil Energy, uncontrollable from her body, burst out, forming the largest scale Evil Spirit Storm ever, shaking and roaring as it swept the surroundings.

The Holy Sword was expelled from her body like a streak of light, flying back into Shane’s hands.

"Jade!"

Shane could no longer care about so much and wanted to rush toward Lilith.

However, someone else got there quicker than him.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Accompanied by two sounds of breaking the air, two figures, one big and one small, appeared in front and behind Evil God Lilith, surrounding her.

"Boom!"

Amazing Magic Power rose from the two individuals.

"Alright, it’s time to calm down now, little one."

Ai Yi unfurled a pair of Dragon Wings from the front, and with a small mouth opening and closing, actually breathed out a scorching Dragon Breath.

That Dragon Breath was terribly fearsome.

Its appearance instantly raised the temperature to an astonishing level, making the area seem like the center of a volcano, even distorting the shaking of the atmosphere.

"..."

Anima, with a serious expression, spread her hands, and a Holy Light full of the essence of Life descended.

Ai Yi and Anima, one using Dragon Breath and the other using Holy Light, evaporated the Evil Energy, enveloping Lilith, making her disappear into a source of light, suspended in mid-air, motionless.

"This..."

Shane stopped in his tracks, stunned.

"Are you alright?"

"Mr. Shane."

Again, two figures appeared beside Shane, catching his eye.

"Lasha? Laischa?"

Shane looked at the girls, who resembled twins, and was plunged into bewilderment.

What kind of development would unfold now?
