Chapter 59 Fusion of World Rune Fragments

Seeing that the assassination was at a stalemate, even though the dance of death was stabbed into Foego's heart, the king showed no signs of shrinking.

Josh reacted in time, the arcane runes in his body lit up with blue-purple light, and his blood boiled like a furnace. While activating the magic power in his body, he sucked in a large mouthful of magic essence, greatly strengthening his body.

In order to prevent accidents from happening, Josh guided part of the arcane energy to gather around himself, creating an arcane barrier that could withstand any attack.

"If you can't draw out the life force, it will grow bigger!"

【I'm doing it!】

The dance of death suddenly expanded from the dagger to its original size, directly piercing Foego's heart.

However, when the blade pierced the skin of the chest and back, not a drop of blood flowed out.

The pained expression on Foego's face became paler, and even his hair visibly changed from brown-black to silver-white, as if his life force had been drained away, but it was not Lunessia's fault.

"You pissed me off, pariah!"

Foyego's eyes widened with anger, his expression crazy, and Mu Qing's right hand flashed with a star-like light, and he instantly poured out destructive energy that was similar to rune magic, but completely different.

The black breastplate around his heart was shattered, showing a hole pierced by the dance of death. His whole person showed an unknown "ghost" state, somewhat similar to the faceless ghost that once wandered in the Well of Ten Thousand Years.

【How about it, do you want to continue? 】

A silver light soared into the sky and scattered waves of annihilation in all directions, blocking all of Josh's first wave of probing attacks.

In an instant, Josh's entire body was wrapped in blue and yellow magical light.

The arcane energy lifted him up, his feet slowly left the ground, and his whole body was suspended in mid-air.

Josh could see that Foyego's soul had completely merged with Mu Qing.

But Josh was not affected.

Almost in a breath, all the injuries on Josh's body were restored to their original state. Even the magic power lost in holding up the shield was replenished, and he quickly got up.

The blue and yellow runic energies are intertwined but not integrated. They are connected in origin, but are not in the same sequence.

From the moment Josh's body came into contact with the world runes, he understood the functions of the world rune fragments he selected and how to use them.

The mysterious and obscure arcane runes imprinted in the blood have all been replaced by world rune fragments and transcendent magic marks, becoming consistent.

Foego stared at his dead lover's face, a moment of tenderness that was soon replaced by madness.

"Don't worry, I'm awake."

At this time, Foego's entire body was covered by Mu Qing's magic, and the marble sunken nearly half a meter under his feet seemed to have been polished smooth by some kind of technology, comparable to a mirror.

"The power of life... Isulde, I feel the power of life! It's underground. Is that the water of life?"

Josh wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth casually, and the severe pain all over his body stimulated the nerves.

There are five sequences of world runes, namely the orange and yellow precision system, the black and red dominance system, the blue and purple witchcraft system, the gray and green determination system and the azure enlightenment system.

He spat out a mouthful of blood that was mixed with what looked like internal organ fragments. The moment it touched the ground, it made a hissing sound like sulfuric acid corroding, and there was a faint sheen in the scarlet color consistent with the color of the energy wave just now.

At this moment, Josh, who had almost understood Foyego's state through the transcendent fragments, waved his hand, gathered magic and turned it into a magic cloud, appearing in mid-air.

But Isulde's body was held tightly in Foego's arms at some point and was not affected at all.

"No one... can stop me."

While Josh was communicating spiritually with Lunessia, he had already opened the box containing the ash powder of the Forbidden Demon Stone Tree.

In the distance, the silver-white magic power emitted by Mu Qing finally dissipated, and Foyego's figure appeared in Josh's field of vision again.

[Be careful, Josh, don’t be bewitched by the world runes!] Lunessia reminded sternly, [Be sure to distinguish whether your thoughts are your own or those instilled in you by the world runes!]

The yellow precision world rune fragment can be roughly translated as "perseverance", which can make the holder immune to death, and the more serious the injury, the stronger the increase in the holder's combat effectiveness.

Now Josh can not only see with the naked eye the barriers between the material realm and the spiritual realm that overlap but do not overlap, but can also clearly feel the more microscopic levels.

Lunishia spoke quickly, complained a little about what Josh said, and then turned to the main point:

[This guy is in a very strange state, that soul-eating blade has locked his life! Although I can feel a trace of death energy flowing, what exactly is this state of his... I can't tell. 】

Submerged in the torrent of magic, Josh shook his head and chuckled. The increase in mental state brought about by transcendence changed the world in his senses.

Enduring the pain, he took out a small palm-sized bottle from the bag on his waist, bit open the cork with his teeth, and drank the water of life inside.

"Why is your death power ineffective against Foego? Don't you have 'Ya' in your name? I thought you were very strong."

Upon hearing this, Lunisia laughed loudly: [Have some backbone! Running away is a coward's behavior! Josh, I find that I really like you more and more!]

However, the pain of losing his lover and the strong obsession to resurrect his lover seemed to have completely unlocked Mu Qing's power.

He could feel the bones in his body breaking and his internal organs rupturing, but Josh remained focused and calm.

[Mu Qing is not a creation of this world, and I am also sealed, but I don’t have the power I had in my heyday, idiot!] Lunishia scolded.

Josh's eyes reflected the sigils of two world rune fragments, and his whole aura soared, not losing to the energy released by Mu Qing just now.

"The secret weapon hasn't been used yet." Josh took off the broken and damaged ghost cloak and threw it on the ground. "Why, do you have the habit of running away from battle?"

"Then I'm flattered."

Countless arcane pulses, almost as wide as an adult's body, fell from the sky like thunder and thunderstorms, striking directly at Foego's position.

Josh flew backwards for dozens of meters again and hit the marble wall on the side of the road hard.

The white light brought by Mu Qing never dissipated. Josh couldn't see Foyego's situation clearly and quickly communicated with Lunessia.

The dozens of Knights of the Iron Order and common soldiers who had just followed Foego had been completely annihilated by Mu Qing's magic, and their souls had all been swallowed and absorbed by Mu Qing's energy and transformed into its power.

Foego's smile as he stared at Isulde's withered face gradually turned into a cold, emotionless gaze as he raised his eyes to look at Josh suspended in mid-air.

Mu Qing danced a sword flower in his right hand, and was immediately grabbed by his backhand, and the tip pierced directly into the ground.

The miserable white light penetrated the night, rising with Foyego as the center, as if turning day and night upside down, illuminating the entire city of Hylia and spreading outward, as dazzling as the sun in the daytime.

With Foego as the center, the earth is rippled by invisible forces, and the marble bricks are torn apart at a rapid speed in the shape of a spider web, revealing an abyss.

Chaotic unknown magic was rampaging through Josh's body. Even though he consumed a large amount of magic power to create an arcane barrier as one of his defense methods, he still could not completely block Mu Qing's instant explosion.

At first glance, it looks a little messy, but upon closer inspection, you can find the mysterious patterns hidden in it.

"Isolde, my beautiful queen, you will be saved soon."

The magical mark brought by another world rune fragment, Perseverance, covered Josh's body surface, intersecting with transcendence but not overlapping.

Under the pull of magic power, the box was about half the size of a palm, and two world rune fragments, one blue and one yellow, floated and deflected above the palm of Josh's left hand.

For example, the precision system is very versatile and capable of both offense and defense; the dominance system destroys the world and has terrifying power; the witchcraft system increases magic and controls energy; the determination system focuses on defense and heals life; the enlightenment system is creative and bends the rules.

But the body blessed with rune magic could not escape the energy aftermath that spread for ten to twenty meters before gradually fading away.

He held his breath and concentrated, made hand gestures to guide the magic power, and muttered words.

[However, although I failed to extract this guy's life force, he has been pierced through the heart by my weapon. Unless I use the water of life, he will definitely die. It just depends on how long the sword can last. 】

They are very dangerous and unstable. Even if they are not conscious, they can corrode people's hearts, bewitch and control their souls.

"Power, I feel the power!"

[Also, who told you that someone with the word ‘ya’ must be strong?! This is just a popular naming trend among Shurima, and many people have this sound in their names!]

The effects they each produce are different.

Under the influence of Josh's magic power, the two world rune fragments quickly turned into magic particles and integrated into his body through the skin.

The blue witchcraft world rune fragment can be roughly translated as "transcendence", which can maximize the holder's senses and the intensity of casting spells, and can shorten the casting interval necessary for certain magics.

But these different sequences of world runes have the same effect:

Josh's eyes widened, and he drew his sword and retreated quickly before his entire body was swallowed up by the energy that could annihilate any substance.
