Chapter 749: Chapter 559_2

Zheng Yichen swung the giant saber that burst under the moonlight, reverting back to the weapon that had been wrapped inside. He did not retreat at all. On the contrary, Yue Heng, who was advancing head-on, was sent flying backward by this strike, her moonlight armor completely shattered.

Even so, a rigid smile appeared on her face. The Black Light that had tainted her was also blasted away when Zheng Yichen shattered her moonlight armor. This strike was essentially a sacrifice of her own power limit to fully resist Zheng Yichen’s attack, a great cost, but since the original goal was achieved, it was enough.

She watched as Zheng Yichen decisively slashed out with his saber light, the shattered weapon in her hand exploding. With the remnants of moonlight flickering, her figure vanished along with them.

The power that Zheng Yichen exhibited now was very abnormal; in combat, it wasn’t that he was at a disadvantage, but rather that he simply could not be defeated!

Zheng Yichen looked down at his chest for a moment, the strike from Yue Heng had left a shallow trace there. This woman was indeed one of the most formidable among those God Descenders.

He had found the ’coordination’ of Oath Power and Counter-Oath Power, not by developing a new way to use this power, but by channeling these powers into other aspects.

The world-ending Oath of the Oath Beast produced a destructive force that Zheng Yichen felt somewhat familiar with. In his battle with the God Descenders, he remembered where that sense of familiarity came from.

At the final moment he stayed in that cancerous world, he witnessed a world’s march toward Oblivion, that end included destruction...

After all, destruction was loud and noisy, whereas the picture of Oblivion not only ’erased’ the noise produced by destruction, it also silenced the oblivion of all things, including any traces left by destruction.

That kind of impression, when not thought about, might as well not exist, but once it resurfaced, it became incredibly sharp and clear, as if he had returned to the scene himself.

Zheng Yichen couldn’t reproduce the scene of Oblivion he had observed, but he tried to replicate that intense impression, applying it to his attacks, to his own body. He wasn’t sure if this was something like Sword Intent in the world of immortals and heroes.

Trying this felt quite terrible, and it wasn’t easy to reproduce such an intense Oblivion impression on himself; he attempted it many times during battle and failed, only to reach his current state by first using the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills as a primer...

The Demonic Abyss Seven Kills were powered by demonic thoughts, unleashing a blow that destroyed living beings. In terms of purity of destruction, it wasn’t comparable to the Oath Beast’s world-ending Oath.

After all, the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills targeted living beings, while the world-ending Oath targeted everything. But no matter how impure, it was still relevant to what Zheng Yichen wanted to do. The unleased Demonic Abyss Seven Kills, as a primer, did succeed in reproducing that intense impression of Oblivion.

Yet initially, it was influenced by Demonic Abyss Seven Kills, with a state of mind dominated by the rampage of destruction. Gradually, after entering that state, it began to transition toward ’Oblivion,’ though this warm-up period took quite a while.

Applying the Oblivion impression purely on the attacks, with his condition, he could only launch a single strike, thereafter releasing it wouldn’t be so easy, as the reproduction wasn’t continuous.

Reproducing it on himself was different; it allowed him to become a human form that spread Oblivion. Each attack carried with it an Oblivion impression, not as powerful as a focused reproduction, but it was continual.

As long as he could bear it, he could spread more ’Oblivion.’

And Oblivion, just a lingering intense impression, still brought him significant negative effects.

The biggest impact was that over time, Zheng Yichen felt his mental state become empty and silent. The problem was that this change didn’t make him more laid-back but instead caused him irritation.

His own mental state became silent and empty, but the environment around him remained normal, so normal that it seemed noisy and chaotic to him, leading him to desire everything to return to silence and void.

His mental state was such, while his physical state was that a great deal of Oath Power and Counter-Oath Power withstood the intense Oblivion impression, preventing his body from self-destructing. The Oath Powers were consumed resisting this self-demise.

Though this consumption of power somewhat contradicted Zheng Yichen’s original intent, it also eliminated his most concerning issue.

It was just that the Oblivion impression was too strong; the explosion of Oath Power and Counter-Oath Power resisted it but didn’t completely withstand it. His current vision was akin to that of the cancerous world’s final walk toward Oblivion; his surroundings gradually darkened.

The light visible in his eyes slowly diminished, yet curiously, this did not affect his ’vision’ much. Normal vision became silent and void, but anything capable of creating a noisy presence stood out with particular clarity in his eyes.

What kind of unorthodox thing had he taken upon himself? Was there nothing normal at all?

This thought flashed through his mind in an instant, then was pressed down by the gradually intensifying sense of empty silence. For now, he could stabilize his state, the intense Oblivion impression countervailed by vast Oath Power and Counter-Oath Power.

Otherwise, invoking it would truly be like leading a wolf into the house. However, maintaining this state was clearly not sustainable; the Oblivion impression grew stronger over time. If the battle wasn’t resolved quickly, he felt he might just end up being handled by another Proxy Agent sent by Dusk.
