Chapter 180 Powerless
Chapter 180 Powerless
Although Ash activated the teleportation and destroyed the Dark City on a whim, he was naturally prepared before taking action.
As for fighting? What's the point of fighting? A top 20 demigod is here. He'd be crazy to fight.
It was no problem for him to destroy the Darkness, after all, it was something not presentable, but he couldn't destroy the Law.
Due to the special nature of the City of Law, even if he summoned Chongming or Ye Lin, it was still a question whether they would take action.
Chongming has to worry about the influence of the empire, and Yelin has to worry about the influence of the church.
Roderick knocked the cane in his hand. It was just a knock in the air, but it was loud and clear: "I said, you can't leave."
Ash's teleportation was broken, his eyes narrowed, [Law]?
"I said, I can leave!" Ash said loudly.
The law that had just been imposed was immediately blocked.
This made the pupils of Roderick and the other two shrink slightly. [Command] was Roderick's signature skill, and they didn't expect that Ash would also have it.
Ash wanted to teleport again, but Zedi took action at this moment and blocked the space with a spell.
This caused a hint of displeasure to appear in Ash's molten gold eyes.
Do you really want to die?
"I say, do you really want to die?" Yaxiu restrained all his aura into his body. He did not look like surrendering, but rather waiting for a chance to explode.
"You've killed too many people. You must give an explanation." Roderick pointed to the city below where there were not many living people left.
Most of the people there have an open life in the Capital of Law, and the loss of such a large population obviously cannot be covered up by any lie.
What's more, this is the capital of law, and there are many ways to identify lies.
So even if Ash doesn't reveal it, but doesn't take the blame for it, the matter of Dark City will still be exposed.
Ash's body was covered with dragon scales, and his voice became deeper: "But don't you think you should give an explanation to those people down there, Roderick?"
Roderick immediately fell silent, but Zedi said coldly: "What else do you want? Let some untouchables die in exchange for a stable place. What a perfect thing to do!"
"Suitable?" Ash laughed as if he had heard a joke. "Hahaha, you said suitable? Don't you think it's ironic that this sentence was used for the name of the City of Law?"
"A group of law-abiding people were sent into lawlessness by the lawmakers! This is the most absurd thing I have ever heard of."
"Dane, the Grand Justice of the City of Law, do you think so too?"
Dann was silent for a moment and said, "For the sake of order, I don't deny that it is appropriate to confine the darkness to one place."
Dann's answer made Ash understand something completely.
"I think I know why I suddenly want to destroy you." Yaxiu completely transformed into Yinglong's true form, and the dark golden dragon scales became more restrained.
He understood clearly that he wanted to destroy it because his conscience and values brought from his previous life were filled with the deepest disgust for the logic of the world's order.
"If it is evil, punish it; if it is evil, sweep it away; if it is evil, kill it; this is justice."
Ash's voice became triple because he had unfolded his three heads and six arms again.
“When a law loses its justice, it is no longer a law.”
"You are capable of judging the justice of the law? Who do you think you are!" Zedi shouted angrily. He was really furious now. After all, the Dark Capital was the territory of the White Dove Faction. Without it, the White Dove Faction would inevitably decline.
Silently, an Ash appeared in front of Zedi, with six swords combined into one.
Secret: [Blue Sky and Blood]!
The space was stained with blood, and compared to the past, this time it had a more heroic flavor.
Caught off guard, Zedi took the full blow.
boom!
A black shadow went straight through the wall of the cave, creating a hole of unknown depth.
On the other side, Ash, who was staying in place, disappeared. It was just an illusion left behind by his excessive speed.
Ash stopped at the place where Zedi had just stopped, staring at Zedi in the deep pit indifferently, and said in a calm tone:
"I am your ancestor!"
Zedi stood up again with a gloomy face, and the big hole in his chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A code appeared in his hand, and Zedi said, "You have violated the criminal law and should be beheaded."
But soon, his expression changed slightly, because his skills didn't work on Ash.
Ash also sensed that there was a strange force trying to make his head fall off.
But under the [Eternal Sword Body], there is no concept of various organs on his body. It looks like a sword, and this is the effect.
"You have violated the criminal law and should be punished by having your five limbs torn into pieces!" Zedi said again in disbelief.
The next second, it was Zedi's limbs and head that were broken.
It was Ash who rushed to him as he opened his mouth and cut off all five of his limbs with his sword.
Just as Ash was about to suppress him in the sea of blood, Zeddi's five bodies flashed with golden light and escaped from Ash's grasping range.
A golden light flashed, and Zedi appeared in the distance, his limbs intact. His face became even gloomier, so dark that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.
Zedi yelled at Dann, "Why, you still want to watch? This kid is obviously going to destroy the City of Law!"
Dann took a deep breath and silently charged towards Ash.
Roderick also wanted to take action, after all, the noise was too loud and would alert others.
But just as he was about to strike the staff, his expression changed and his body suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, an extremely dark crack appeared where Roderick had originally stayed.
This sudden change caused the three people who had just started fighting to pause.
There is actually someone else?
Standing on a protruding cliff, Roderick frowned and said, "Amir, come out!"
Amir?
Ash's thoughts raced in his mind, and he soon found a clue.
The capital of law has a long history, and naturally, it has also produced heretics.
Amir De, whose original name was Amir Truman, was the biggest traitor in the history of the capital of law. He believed that laws should not exist and there was no reason for the weak to restrict the strong.
So he devoted himself to destroying the City of Law and destroying this city that symbolizes law.
The big commotion Ash made naturally attracted him, after all, he had been near the City of Law, waiting for the opportunity to destroy it.
Now that there is hope, he naturally won't miss it.
Amir did not come out. He wanted to restrain Roderick and relieve the pressure on Ash.
This indeed relieved a lot of pressure on Ash, because Dann suddenly stopped fighting and opened his eyes covered with golden lines to look for Amir.
He wanted to completely wipe out this family's traitor, and this priority was much higher than killing Ash.
The situation returned to a one-on-one situation between Ash and Zedi.
This made Zedi very angry. Can you please see what time it is now?
In just one or two minutes after Dann withdrew, he was slaughtered several times by Ash. If it weren't for his many ways to save his life, he would have been swept into the depths of the sea of blood and suppressed.
Zedi didn't want to be suppressed by the sea of blood. It was an instinctive warning that once he sank into it, he would never be able to break free.
This made Zedi infinitely more wary of Ash, because Ash seemed to be too restrained towards him, and even his legal power could not work on Ash.
This is normal. Heaven is fair. No one is qualified to judge Heaven except the world itself.
Moreover, [Fire Eyes and Golden Pupils] itself absorbs [Eyes of Good and Evil], and its resistance in this aspect is extremely high.
Zedi's trial of Yaxiu is equivalent to "Who are you in the court? How dare you sue me!"
Now he can only use his magical power to cause damage to Ash.
But in front of the indestructible, indestructible and immortal [Eternal Sword Body], the threat posed by his spells was greatly weakened.
The sword was like a swimming dragon, and a black light mixed with golden rays flashed by. Zedi's head was cut off by Ash's sword again.
Damn!
Zedi cursed inwardly and prepared to escape again.
Ash's molten gold eyes reflected the future of Zeddi's escape.
boom!
A sonic boom sounded, and a single sword flew out of his hand, piercing the body of Zedi who had just emerged at a speed far exceeding the speed of sound.
puff!
The sharp sword pierced his heart. Zedi groaned, ignored the severe pain, and continued to cast spells.
After all, he was a demigod who had risen step by step, so he shouldn't be unable to endure such pain.
But the strange thing was that he couldn't use any of the magic power and mental power in his body.
Zedi immediately realized that the abnormality must be Ash's sword.
He immediately used both hands to pull out the sword from his chest.
The sword was pulled out easily, but Zedi looked grim, because his condition of being unable to use his strength did not improve at all.
Is it poison?
Thinking of this, Zeddi couldn't help but said angrily: "Despicable, actually using poison!"
But Ash was too lazy to waste time talking to the dying man, and he punched Zeddi's old face with his fist as big as a sandbag.
Get down here, Lao Deng!
boom!
The blood splashed, and Zedi directly accompanied the knight before.
'We can only suppress one more.'
Ash felt his load and looked at the three people. Yes, three people, Dane, Roderick and Amir.
He didn't even plan to let Amir go. After all, this man was a heinous criminal and he could be killed if he could.
The speed with which Ash dealt with Zedi shocked the other three.
When other demigods of the same level fight, the fight will usually last for a day or two, or even a month or two. After all, their immortality gives them too much endurance. Unless they are absolutely crushed, few demigods can end the battle in just a few minutes.
They have also seen Ash's strength, which seems to be on the same level as Dann, but now it seems that it should be adjusted upwards.
"Haha, kid, good job!"
A hearty laugh sounded from somewhere, expressing satisfaction with Ash's suppression of Zedi.
But Dann's face was red, and he smashed the mace directly at that party, roaring: "Amir, you die!"
With one blow of the hammer, the space broke and a man was forced out from the void. He was a handsome young man with long hair tied into a ponytail behind his head. There was a faint evil smile on the corner of his mouth. He looked like a very charming person.
"Cousin, we haven't seen each other for several years. Don't be so enthusiastic." Amir held a black long knife in his hand and his voice was a little teasing.
"I don't have a cousin who bullies my cousin's wife like you do!" Dann roared, his face flushed, and he was obviously extremely angry.
The information in this sentence made Ash look sideways. After all, the information he had collected was not as profound as this sentence.
"She's just a woman, why do you care so much?" Amir shrugged. "If you mess up, just find another one."
Dann didn't say anything, but just swung the mace at Dann. He was so angry that white smoke floated above his head.
Boom boom boom!
The two sides fought without caring whether the cave could hold out.
The cave began to collapse.
Yaxiu did not take action this time. After all, he had already sent the remaining survivors away with the blood puppets, so it didn't matter if they collapsed now.
Rumble!
Huge rocks rolled down and flooded the sea of blood.
But blood overflowed through the cracks and soon formed a new sea of blood on the surface.
Standing on the sea of blood, Ash faced Roderick, with one hundred and eight of him beside him.
"Old man, have you thought about how to die?" Yaxiu raised his sword. After this incident, he would definitely become the mortal enemy of the City of Law.
It is better to resolve a feud than to create one. Originally, he wanted to become a demigod and then come back to resolve the issue. After all, he didn't really want to do something that was costly and had low returns.
But now there is a chance to solve it, so of course it is better to solve it.
"How did things turn out like this?" Roderick sighed, his tone helpless.
When a family is suddenly struck by a disaster, everyone will feel helpless. Even though they have done nothing, a strong man suddenly comes and kicks down the load-bearing wall of the house.
Or the kind that cannot be repaired.
"When you allowed them to build this kind of place, this was already the fate." Ash said indifferently, "The idea that the darkness is confined to one place in order to better maintain order is purely an excuse."
"If they wanted to, there wouldn't be even a shadow under the strong light. They just didn't want to put in the effort."
Roderick clenched his staff: "But you should know how much manpower and resources this will consume."
"I know, but does knowing that mean I don't have to do it?" Ash snorted coldly, "Where is your law, Law Weaver, or are you just an opportunist who took advantage of the situation?"
"Perhaps." Roderick nodded slightly. "It has been so long that I have forgotten why I compiled the laws in the first place. Was it for justice, for power, or for fame? I can't remember clearly."
"My only obsession now is to protect this city, so just surrender, kid. You are no match for me, especially when you are carrying two heavy burdens."
"I've been talking to you for so long, not just for talking." Ash sneered, and with a step of his foot, one hundred and eight "Ash" auras linked together, becoming independent in this world.
Zhu Xian Formation, rise!
Then four long swords flew out of Ash's body and occupied the four directions.
The second body, transformation!
Finally, four rainbow lights burst out from the sea of blood and poured into the four swords.
The Four Swords of Zhu Xian, combine!
Roderick knocked down his staff: "I said, I am not in the magic circle."
Then Roderick immediately broke away from the "Zhu Xian Formation".
Ash returned to his human form and stared indifferently at Roderick who was still standing there.
If it were so easy to escape, all his deductions of the Zhu Xian Formation would have been in vain.
The Zhu Xian Formation is both a formation and not a formation. In essence, it is a means to cooperate with his power.
He has only one function, which is to create a small world of his own, and he is the master of that small world.
So Roderick did leave the Zhuxian Formation, but he only left the base of the formation. He himself was still in the independent little world divided by the Zhuxian Formation.
Roderick also noticed this situation, but Ash's method was too rare, so he just thought that his method was ineffective and he did not escape from the formation.
"Excellent Immortal!"
With a light shout from Ash, a strong wind blew towards Roderick, sealing the magic power in his body.
Roderick's eyes changed, and he immediately used his power to resolve this abnormal state.
"Fall into the fairy!"
But with another shout from Ash, heavy rain began to fall from the sky, and even the power could not be used.
Ash's cold voice continued.
"Kill the Immortal!"
A flash of red light pierced into Roderick's body in an instant.
Roderick's expression changed slightly, because he felt that his divine fire was nailed to death.
As if knowing that his death was near, Roderick sighed sadly. Things in the world are unpredictable, and he never expected that he would end up like this.
"Let Dane go, he's a good boy." Roderick said.
The only thing that answered him was Ash's still cold and heartless voice.
"Zhu Xian!"
A golden light fell from the sky, completely wiping out the wise man who first compiled the written code of law.
The sea of blood shrank, and as Ash waved his hand, four rays of rainbow light sank into his palm.
Ash felt it and nodded slightly. It was okay. The [Four Wills of the Universe] didn't consume much energy.
After all, he had killed too many things along the way, and [Tongtian Siyi] had already expanded to a terrifying level.
Ash turned his gaze towards Dan and Amir.
Amir couldn't help but whistled when he saw this: "Little brother, come with me to kill my cousin, and we will take all the wealth in the Capital of Law."
The only responses he got were the red lines coming out of Ash's fingertips and the tall figure that appeared.
"Kill him." Yaxiu raised his sword.
Without hesitation, the bunny girl instantly turned into moonlight and charged into the battlefield.
Then, Ash also rushed into the battlefield.
With their combined efforts, Amir's head was smashed apart by Dan's hammer, and there was a hint of disbelief on his face when it was blown up.
He thought that since Ash had killed Roderick and Zeddy, he would definitely help him. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and Ash would definitely help his friend.
Little did he know that in Ash's eyes, he was also an enemy.
Working with bad guys is a joke. You never know when you’ll be stabbed in the back.
In other words, the deployment of the Zhuxian Formation and the killing of Roderick consumed too much of his soul power, otherwise it would have been Ash himself who took action, not Ye Lin.
Amir is not from the Capital of Law, so Ye Lin doesn’t need to be cautious when killing him.
After suppressing Amir's divine fire, Dann looked at Ash with complicated eyes and asked in a difficult tone: "Why?"
He was asking why Ash saved him, even though they were already mortal enemies.
"Because that city still needs you to govern it." Yaxiu pointed his sword at the city beside him. At this time, the city was brightly lit. They were all awakened by the huge movement here. "Without the backbone, this place is bound to be in chaos."
"Compared to that pile of shit Zeddi, I think you, a pile of mud, are more salvageable." Ash shrugged.
"What about Lord Rodrick!" Dane growled.
"He," Ash thought for a moment and said, "is just a pile of mud. There's no hope for him."
Mud? Dane laughed miserably, "Why?"
He was questioning why Ash did this.
Ash also understood what he meant and sighed, "Didn't I tell you that I can't stand it?"
"Because you don't like it?" Dan asked back.
"Yeah, just because I can't stand it." Ash nodded slightly, "I'm not you. I don't have any restrictions. I can do whatever I want. It's that simple."
Dann was silent, his body suddenly collapsed. He had seen many cases where families were destroyed and people died because of the whims of the powerful.
But when it really happened to him, he felt firsthand the helplessness and powerlessness of the victims.
