Chapter 1599: Chapter 1175: Seven-winged Ash

When Ash was pushed to open the "Illusory Promise" for the fourth time, the Bloodmoon Archlord did not stop his steps; instead, he proactively continued the slaughter against Ash in his dominant state, mocking, "I heard you rejected the Dazzling Star, thinking you’re stupid but somewhat prideful. Turns out it isn’t true—didn’t you say you wouldn’t bow to her, yet you’ve been accepting her protection all along?"

Ash’s dual swords tore through the Bloodmoon Archlord’s corpse sea maggot fly body. With a hoarse voice, he asked back, "What do you mean?"

"Wasn’t the ’Illusory Promise’ a gift from the Dazzling Star?" the Bloodmoon Archlord sneered, "I saw this Wonder she left back in the Black Descent Hell, and now that Hell is sealed yet it appeared in your hands...the only reason could be she secretly constructed a new one."

Saying this, the Bloodmoon Archlord was curious: "How did you confuse the Dazzling Star and snatch half of her Supreme Chalice? She not only willingly gives you the Vice Monarch position of the Heavenly Kingdom but also provides you a Fate Wonder for self-protection?"

This Fate Wonder was actually Dazzling Star’s creation?

Ash was stunned, but felt it justified: among the six Divine Lords, only Dazzling Star delved into Fate Faction, the only one capable of constructing a Fate Wonder naturally would be her.

Aside from Dazzling Star, other Divine Lords seemed unaware of his ability to enter the Level Six of Hell, and Ash wouldn’t expose this point, much less explain anything.

He seized the final second of "Illusory Promise" ending, quickly soared to distance himself from the corpse mountain blood sea, but countless flies buzzed overhead, forming a rasping malicious whisper:

"Where do you think you’re going?"

Countless flies congregated into a human shape, the Bloodmoon Archlord only managed to form a right leg, but just this right leg was enough to become a heavy hammer to smash Ash back to Hell!

The Forbidden Blood Technique strengthened by "Destruction Blood River" turned the footblade of the right leg into a firework explosion the instant it sliced Ash.

Even if Ash used godly might to block it, the violent aftermath still caused these new dual swords of his to chip, the terrifying impact pressing him back into the blood sea, like a butterfly falling.

"Unable to use ’Illusory Promise’ anymore, huh?" The Bloodmoon Archlord pursued relentlessly, seeing through Ash’s depth: "If the Dazzling Star were here, I’d fear her threefold, but relying solely on a single Wonder and expecting us to be at a loss? Wishful thinking!"

Right to the point.

Though Ash still had Source Crystal, Wonders have limits. "Illusory Promise" has been used multiple times in succession, now it’s reached its limit. Continuing to use it would not only be ineffective, but the Wonder would also collapse and be destroyed due to the Technique Spirit’s sudden death.

Gritting his teeth, holding a mouthful of blood, Ash rotated his swords like a windmill, entering a brief godly might infinite mode. Sonia learned godly might Iaido through divine might training, Ash didn’t have such talent, but he didn’t gain nothing; Sonia taught him the feeling of capturing godly might hand by hand, and now he can infinitely unleash godly might in short bursts.

Against the Bloodmoon Archlord’s "Destruction Blood Technique" that could pierce all defenses, infinite godly might was Ash’s final defense line!

The aftermath of swords and blood battling detonated nearby blood sea, hundreds of tons of seawater surged to the sky inundating the world. Amidst the pouring blood rain, Ash continually cleaved through the maggot fly body of the Bloodmoon Archlord, actually slowly turning the tide from a one-sided situation.

After several minutes of brutal slaughter, Ash finally captured a non-weakness: forming a body through "Corpse Sea Maggots" took time for the Bloodmoon Archlord, which was the only window Ash could grasp. As long as he repeatedly destroyed the body before the flies formed, the Bloodmoon Archlord naturally struggled to launch an effective offensive, forced into a prolonged battle!

But Ash’s intent was too evident, his strategy even audible to the Bloodmoon Heavenly Kingdom, and the Bloodmoon Archlord broke Ash’s desperate struggle in one move —

He used his hand.

Previously, the Bloodmoon Archlord always used legs as the main attack, so Ash primarily destroyed his legs. Yet, using common sense, as the ancestor of Blood Saint Moon Shadow, how could the Bloodmoon Archlord not be proficient in fist claw techniques?

Ash understood, but he was already at the brink.

As he barely blocked the Bloodmoon Archlord’s blood cannon heavy fist, the fierce whipping leg almost shaved off his neck. Ash spun like a top on the blood sea, recovering barely, when the Bloodmoon Archlord’s fly swarm gathered into human form before his eyes.

In just a few breaths of offense and defense, Ash’s body became riddled with wounds, blood dripping, face torn revealing hideous gums, shoulder exposing eerie white bones. He was like a puppet in a storm, only barely hanging onto a gasp to sustain, but the world won’t treat you kindly just because you bet your life.

"Without ’Illusory Promise’ are you powerless? Cannot achieve anything beyond relying on Dazzling Star’s protection?" The Bloodmoon Archlord’s fly swarm appeared beneath Ash, the eerie magic sound mockingly laughed: "But I’m tired of playing."

"Let’s end this."

The Bloodmoon Archlord instantly consolidated into form, kicking upward, Ash activated godly might to attempt defense, but at this moment, Ash’s whole being froze, except for thoughts still turning, Source Power and soul body stopped, like pressed with a pause button.

The third Eternal Wonder of the corpse mountain blood sea, "Blood Source Curse Poison".

Activating this Wonder doesn’t require contact with the target, just the target’s blood flowing into the blood sea to indirectly trigger it. The more blood the target sheds, the longer the curse poison’s duration becomes upon activation, an extremely effective control method.

But Ash has the "Illusory Promise" that’s immune to all harm and control, so the Bloodmoon Archlord withheld this Wonder, not exposing it. Until Ash exhausted "Illusory Promise" usage, he revealed the most venomous fangs to finally end this divine war!

To prevent trickery, the Bloodmoon Archlord first delivered a fierce kick sending Ash into the air. Ash watched himself like a kite without strings flying into the sky, glancing over other battlefields, he saw Sword Maiden oppressed by All-knowing Weaver’s rampant attacks, he saw the Witch and others tethered tightly by the Imaginary Music Master’s Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon. These three Divine Lords cooperated unprecedentedly to trap Ash, creating an infallible capture opportunity for the Bloodmoon Archlord.

Yet seeing the Divine Lords go all out to bind Sword Maiden and others, Ash suddenly felt inexplicably proud.

```

No wonder you’re my girl, you can all handle things on your own.

This is the limit, besides sacrificing himself, Ash seems to have exhausted all options. Actually, it should have been like this long ago. Before the Sword Maiden went to the Ancient Battlefield, before the three Divine Lords fought on his behalf, he should have used his final card... But Ash always held onto a fluke in his heart.

And fear.

Last time he forgot Vishi, who’s turn is it this time? Sword Maiden, Witch, or Silver Lamp?

In Level Six of Hell, he didn’t lose a quarter of himself; instead, he had to sacrifice a quarter in reality. He wasn’t afraid of losing a quarter of himself, but losing anyone’s memory was a price he couldn’t pay.

But there’s no choice, the enemy is world-destroying Divine Lords. Besides relying on the power of the Final Five, what else can he do?

What else can he do?

Can he only do this...?

Ash’s gaze skims over the Sword Maiden heading to the Ancient Battlefield, over the battling Witch, Silver Lamp, Maid... They’re all fighting bloody battles; they haven’t given up yet. How can I betray them by selling myself out? How much longer will I keep failing them!

My life no longer belongs to me; I have exchanged lives with them. I can’t sell their assets... I belong to them, and they belong to me!

Ash can’t utilize Source Power or move his soul body; the only thing he can control is his mind, and the only resource in his mind is—

The negative emotions in the Sword Maiden and her companions’ hearts.

Those emotions are the resources Ash uses to trigger the Sword Servant Wonder. He cautiously seals them, not daring to touch them. But out of instinct, or a desperate struggle, Ash opens this Pandora’s box, allowing their resentment, hatred, madness, cruelty to utterly invade his mind!

The sky seemed to fall into Ash’s eyes, the air thickened, the body felt so light as if it would float away, and the blood vessels became cold as if frozen...

At this moment, the Extreme Master of Blood Moon suddenly felt that Ash seemed to experience some strange changes, but whatever happens doesn’t matter. Under the control of Blood Source Curse, Ash couldn’t move at all. His next move would completely strip Ash of any ability to resist—

Just as the Extreme Master of Blood Moon was about to touch Ash, Felix suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted completely. Then a fleeting brilliant light glimmered over Ash, and he broke free from the Blood Source Curse, regaining Source Power operation and soul body control!

The Extreme Master of Blood Moon saw it very clearly, it was the trace of casting "Illusory Promise", but isn’t the original body of "Illusory Promise" already at its limit? And why was it triggered only for a moment, just to help him break free from the Blood Source Curse?

When Ash turned around, the Extreme Master of Blood Moon saw a pair of crimson eyes like rubies in his gaze.

This is a distance neither side can dodge; the Extreme Master of Blood Moon pierced through his heart, and Ash’s sword pierced through the Extreme Master of Blood Moon’s head. As they passed each other, the Extreme Master of Blood Moon retreated far away, groaned, half of his body melting into a puddle of blood, unable to coalesce for a while!

Just now when Ash pierced his head, the sword blade stirred up waves of crimson ripples that not only destroyed the Extreme Master of Blood Moon’s soul body but also added swordsmanship curses on it, leaving the Extreme Master of Blood Moon unable to reorganize his body and forcing him to abandon the cursed limbs directly, quickly regenerating with "Corpse Sea Maggot Fly"!

The Extreme Master of Blood Moon raised his head and saw Ash freely spreading his Void Wings. This human somehow had three layers of Silver Void Wings, three layers of Golden Void Wings, three layers of Spectrum Wings, two layers of Sword Color Wings, and one layer of Soul Color Wings, overlapping Prison Wings, Supreme Tail Feathers, and... Battle Color Wings!

Ash, in the form of a demigod, complete with seven wings!

But Battle Color Wings should be the Void Wings formed in the Ancient Battlefield, they should only be on the Sword Maiden, why does Ash also have them? And the crimson ripples Ash used earlier seem to be the swordsmanship Wonder mastered by the Sword Maiden, why can he also use it?

However, once the Extreme Master of Blood Moon thought of the Sword Maiden also having Ash’s Supreme Tail Feathers, he guessed this might be a special ability of the Supreme Void Wings and stopped delving into it. Besides, this is only a superficial Battle Color Wing; Ash didn’t use the Ancient Battlefield’s Eternal Wonder, only using the Feather Color of Battle Color Wings to enhance his own magic.

Although Ash escaped the fatal kill, the Extreme Master of Blood Moon wasn’t worried because Ash was still a broken body full of scars; the fleeting "Illusory Promise" did not heal his injuries.

More importantly... the right hand of the Extreme Master of Blood Moon squeezed hard, crushing Ash’s heart!

Without a heart, let’s see how you persist!

This is the wound caused by "Destruction Blood River", you have no way to heal! The pain brought by blood curse alone is enough to make you wish for death!

So the Extreme Master of Blood Moon saw countless soul locks appear in the hollow of Ash’s chest, connecting the broken blood vessels inside. Draped with a layer of dark veil, each time the veil pulsated, the soul locks pumped the blood, driving the body, fresh blood traversing through the spectral blue tunnel, flowing out vividly purple. Blood continuously poured from his mouth, revealing teeth and bones on half of his face, while the hand holding the sword grew steadier, the blood light in his eyes becoming more and more intense!

This lunatic actually used Soul Divine Trace to replace his heart...

The Blood Moon Divine Lord couldn’t help licking his lips, one eye wide open, the other squinting: "I take back what I said."

"Dazzling Star’s vision is really remarkable; you indeed are an extraordinary human, Ash Heath, I too have taken a liking to you." The Extreme Master of Blood Moon spread open his arms, tens of thousands of tons of Blood Sea surged behind him, completely engulfing the two: "Then let me enjoy this even more!"
