On the other side, the battle between Kayn and Yi has entered a white-hot stage.
After mastering the power of Rhaast, Kayn's strength underwent a qualitative change in a very short period of time.
Whether in terms of speed or strength, Kayn at this moment was far superior to Yi, after all, that was the power that came from a Darkin.
But even so, Yi remained extremely tenacious when facing Kayn's offensive. Every time he drew his sword, he was able to block Kayn's attack with incredible accuracy, and waited for an opportunity to counterattack Kayn with the sword in his hand.
"boom!"
The blue light suddenly exploded, repelling the green sword light in front of him, and Yi's body hit the building behind him heavily.
Although Yi had done his best to use his mortal body to fight against the power of a demigod, there was still a huge gap between his strength and Kayn's.
Not far away, the Darkin scythe in Kayn's hand kept spinning, and his footsteps stepped on the broken bricks and tiles, making bursts of "crunching" sounds.
He walked closer to Yi step by step, and said in a cold tone:
"I have to admit that you are the strongest human being I have ever seen, except for my master. But unfortunately, you chose to stand against me. Today, I will take her away no matter what!"
Yi supported himself with the sword in his hand and slowly stood up.
He looked up at Kayn. "Although I cannot determine the true origin of that weapon, I can clearly sense that it is extremely difficult for you to even deal with the sickle in your hand! Your willpower is strong, but a person's power is always limited."
"Shut up!" Kayn suddenly hissed in a low voice.
But Yi continued: "If you take the weapon away, but cannot control them, all of Ionia will face disaster again because of you."
As he spoke, Yi slowly raised his hand, and in his palm, Kayn saw a strange green Sanskrit mantra.
That was the life-saving item given to Yi by Karma, the soul of Ionia, when Yi participated in the war between Ionia and Noxus.
But now, Yi decided to give him to Kayn.
"Go back to the Shadow Stream. The Soul of Ionia will guide you. You will gain strength from it, but you will not lose your mind."
Yi slowly turned around and looked towards the Wuji Sword Sect. His back looked haggard and sad.
"I have personally witnessed the violent deaths of my loved ones. I understand people's desire for power. However, when pursuing power, we must also consider the huge risks involved."
"Zhe's disciple, I am a master to Jie, and I believe your master would not want to see you take risks and do something extremely risky just to gain power."
"!!!"
Kayn's body shook violently.
He looked at the green Sanskrit mantra that Yi handed over, and a violent fluctuation appeared in his eyes.
Maybe he wouldn't listen to what others said, but when Yi mentioned Jie, Kayn had to admit that there was indeed a struggle in his heart.
"Rhaast." Kayn called softly in his heart.
After a long silence, Laast's hoarse voice came from afar.
"Kayn, Zolani can help us gain greater power, but at the same time, as this mortal said, you need to bear greater mental pressure."
"In fact, as long as you give me your body, even without Zolani, we can still be as good as anyone else!"
"Rhaast, you stinking scythe!"
Suddenly, just as Kayn's voice fell, Rhaast's tone suddenly became extremely urgent.
"Kayin, leave here and find Zuo Chi!"
"Hmm?" Kayn paused slightly, a look of confusion on his face.
But before he could ask, Rhaast's roar came again: "Vairus attacked Zuo Chi, Varus wants to take Zolani away!"
"!!"
This time, Kayn didn't stop at all. He turned around abruptly, passed Yi and rushed towards the depths of the Wuji Sword Sect.
He was like a shapeless blue ghost, not restricted by any building at all. The moment his body touched the wall, it turned into shadow and merged into it.
No matter what Kayn chooses next, he must now stop Varus from taking Zolani away.
They must find Zuo Chi as quickly as possible!
On the spot, Yi held the blade across his body and slowly closed his eyes.
In an instant, a mysterious blue light emerged from around his body. Faced with this despairing tragedy, Yi forced himself into meditation.
Time passed by little by little, and Yi's surroundings were silent, with only the sound of the waterfall rushing down in the distance.
I don’t know how long it took, but when Yi opened his eyes again, there was an unparalleled determination on his face.
This time, it's not too late!
Unlike the last time when he could only look at the corpses of his relatives and friends and feel regretful, this time, he can still do something!
Seeing this, a powerful sword intent burst out from Yi's body and soared into the sky, and the green sword in his hand began to emit buzzing sounds continuously.
Immediately afterwards, Yi turned into a beam of green light and rushed towards the depths of the Wuji Sword Sect.
Yi's figure left quickly, and the turmoil in the outer courtyard of the Wuji Sword Sect was completely calmed down. Only ruins were left on the ground, indicating the tragic battle that had taken place here.
Perhaps, as Yi said before, the Wuji Sword Sect did not provoke anyone, but he overlooked one point: a man is innocent but is guilty of possessing a treasure.
From the moment he decided to take the curved-blade chainsaw away from the Phantom Mist Sword Pool, the gears of fate had already begun to turn slowly.
The Promise Forbidden Land.
After enduring Varus's fierce bombardment, the Ascended Dagger in Zuo Chi's hand, which had been with him since he came to Runeterra, was covered with cracks.
That gentle female voice was always lingering in Zuo Chi's ears, and a pair of bewitching big hands were always pulling at Zuo Chi's mind.
Zuo Chi shook his head vigorously and looked straight ahead with a serious expression.
"boom!"
All the rock spikes summoned by Zuo Chi were shattered, and a figure flashing with faint purple light soared into the sky, then bent heavily and landed on the ground.
Straightening up slowly, Varus looked directly at Zuo Chi: "You should go back to Shurima instead of interfering in the affairs of the Darkin here!"
There were endless emotions in Varus' eyes, and he seemed to be recalling the unbearable times in the past again.
Knowing that his hometown was in danger, he was unable to return home to protect his relatives in order to guard the temple of Shurima.
He knew that his mind was influenced by the void, but he still fell into depravity like other ascenders.
He knew that he should have looked for Nasus and worked with him to protect the shattered empire, but he was unable to overcome the evil thoughts in his heart, and stepped step by step into the abyss of complete depravity, watching the former empire being buried in the yellow sand.
Varus didn't want an Ascendant like Zuo Chi, whose mind was not affected by the Void, to interfere in the affairs of the Darkin.
Because as a dark descendant, he knows better than anyone how deep this pit is!
How could a group that once occupied the entire Runeterra be simple?
Zuo Chi could sense Varus' intention, but what Varus didn't know was that Zuo Chi's power of ascension did not come from the sun disc, and he was not an ascender from Shurima.
He and Varus are standing at a completely different angle. Varus has his reasons for wanting to get Zolani, and Zuo Chi also has his reasons for helping Rhaast stop Varus.
Putting away the long sword in his hand, Zuo Chi said calmly: "Laast has done me a favor, I should help him complete this task."
"Rhaast's territory used to be located in the middle of Runeterra. Although he was on good terms with Aatrox, he had never fought with Zolani. He simply did not understand how terrifying Zolani's blood magic was!"
Varus' emotions were a little out of control. He roared to Zuo Chi, "And I, I have personally seen my sisters being controlled by Zolani's blood magic. I understand better than anyone how evil that power is. Rhaast is no match for Zolani at all!"
"Today, I must destroy Zolani. Anyone who stands in my way must die!"
As he spoke, Varus turned in the direction of Zolani.
The middle part of the longbow in his hand suddenly made cracking sounds, and a rich blood-red light continued to pour into the longbow from the surrounding air, and a blood-red arrow was quickly taking shape.
"Crack!"
Four sharp claws opened in the middle part of Varus' longbow, wrapping the arrow in the middle in a protective posture and continuously transmitting terrifying power to it.
Violent power burst out from his body, and his white hair was blown by the wind.
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the past and turned again into the invincible ascender archer who could defeat ten thousand enemies alone.
Zuo Chi stood behind Varus, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
Can Varus, a Darkin, really destroy the body of a Darkin?
As far as Zuo Chi knew, in the past thousands of years, there seemed to be only one incident in which the Darkin's body was shattered and both his body and soul were destroyed.
But the protagonist of that incident was the military god of the Shurima Empire - Nasus!
Moreover, the Darkin who was killed was seriously injured and was much weaker than other well-known Darkin.
Now, Zolani is much stronger than the Darkin killed by Nasus. In this case, can Varus destroy Zolani's body?
If it can be destroyed, doesn't that mean that Varus's fighting power is even stronger than Nasus, the god of war of the empire!
The rich blood light completely illuminated the entire Wuji Forbidden Land, and everything in it was covered with a creepy blood color.
At a certain moment, the arrow on Varus' longbow became completely solidified to the extreme.
"Tap! Tread!"
The moment the footsteps sounded, the arrow on Varus's longbow also flew out!
"Buzz!"
Wherever the arrow passed, ripples appeared in the space, and everything around the arrow was flattened in an instant.
Amid the drifting wood chips, the blood-red arrow crossed the Wuji Forbidden Land and arrived in front of the curved-blade chainsaw.
As the tip of the arrow came into contact with the curved-blade chainsaw, an energy explosion powerful enough to flatten a mountain spread to every corner around it.
Although Varus' target was not other places in the Infinite Forbidden Land, the aftermath of the explosion did not care about that and vented madly towards every corner around it.
However, just as this force was about to spread to all around, Zuo Chi's figure disappeared from the spot.
The mark of the sea beast between his eyebrows lit up, and a shadow of a god several dozen meters tall emerged from behind him, with huge tentacles waving continuously. He seemed to have turned into a scorching sun, and the majestic power of ascension vented out from his body, forming a large net that completely covered the aftermath in front of him.
Blood and gold intertwined, and the figures of Zuo Chi and Varus completely disappeared in the dazzling light.
After an unknown amount of time, the blood-red light wrapped in the power of ascension slowly disappeared, and the two figures standing in it also emerged.
Gathering the ascension power emanating from his body, Zuo Chi raised his head and looked forward.
It's time to find out whether Varus' arrow destroyed Zolani.
But when Zuo Chi looked up and forward, he was completely stunned.
Because just in front of Zuo Chi, a huge passage appeared, leading to nowhere!
