Chapter 263 The Essence of the Power of the Abyss

Failed, completely failed.

Tartaglia fell to the ground, almost unconscious.

It was like falling before his master again and again in that silent abyss.

His weapon was knocked away, his arms were almost broken, and the embarrassed Master Tartaglia even fell into a revolving lantern.

The martial arts that have been honed till now, the combat IQ that can be improvised, and the body that pushes the limits again and again.

Tartaglia believed that he had revealed everything to the enemy in front of him, but he still ended up like this.

This is not a difference in energy levels. Tartaglia can feel that the other party must have shown mercy to his men. The golden energy on his body has always been at the same level as his own, or even lower.

But his attack was like a drop in the ocean, hitting the "Wall of Sighs" that was crossing.

Slashing, piercing, throwing, and stabbing, every attack seemed to be seen through, and every blow was defended lightly.

He didn't even see a drop of sweat falling from the opponent's head, and now, the demon armor on his body was almost unable to hold up, and the power of the abyss was corroding his body. In the past, this form was often used briefly when he needed to use all his strength to kill the opponent with one blow.

And now, it might really be... the end.

Once again supporting his body from the ground, the bones of his arms made a creaking sound. Tartaglia once again squeezed out the potential of his body, supporting himself with bones instead of muscles, and "nailing" himself to the ground.

"This kid is really amazing."

Yao Luo was walking calmly on the side. With reflexes thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary people, the whole world would slow down as long as he concentrated. Of course, he could control when to enter this state.

In this situation, the young master's attack was nothing more than a slow-motion afterimage to him, which made him so bored that he wanted to yawn.

Every weakness and flaw of the young master was as clearly visible as the red dots on a monster's body to a game player.

However, this also gave him the opportunity to observe the energy of the Young Master during the battle.

How to say it, the essence of the power of the abyss is that for the creatures of the continent of Teyvat, it is a power that is almost like "reversing the world".

Just like the imaginary world as opposed to the real world, the power of the abyss is equivalent to the "other side" of this continent.

For beings that possess or are infected by this power, their perspective on the world and the direction of the flow of power are completely opposite to those of "earthly" creations.

It is conceivable that from the perspective of someone who possesses or can control the power of the abyss, this peaceful continent of Teyvat may look very different.

As for more things, Yao Luo could no longer dig them out in front of the young master, who was like a toy that was about to be broken.

"The next strike will be the end of it."

With his waist lowered and his mind steadied, and his hands suspended at the midline of his body, Yao Luo intended to end the battle without using any weapons.

And Tartaglia also came flying and swung his sword with his heart, soul, will, and finally his faith.

"Donya, Tok..."

Tartaglia silently recited the names of his family members in his heart. Every time at this time, his family members would always give him endless strength.

The dark black blade pierced through space, creating a crack in front of the two men.

"?"

Yao Luo looked at the blade that was so close to him. He didn't expect that Tartaglia could make such a breakthrough at the moment of life and death.

"Were you still thinking about your family at the last moment?"

With this thought in mind, Yao Luo let the blow pass through the edge of his face, splashing out a drop of blood.

When Tartaglia saw this scene, although he was unwilling, he closed his eyes weakly and fell to the ground unconscious.

"Why---"

Yao Luo shook his head and gently wiped the injured area on his face. Before the wound had time to bleed, it had recovered as before.

He looked into the distance, muttering to himself.

"This time, the Seven Stars and the Immortals should have been in chaos."

That’s right. Not to mention the chaos in the city, even the Liyue immortals who were cultivating themselves in the deep mountains and old forests were not surprised to feel this shocking change. “Huh? × 3”

The three great immortals closest to Liyue Harbor, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun, Xueyue Zhuyang Zhenjun, woke up from their training or slumber with a cry of amazement.

At first, they were surprised and then confused.

On the day when the Emperor descended to earth, who on earth could cause such a commotion in Liyue Harbor?
Moreover, this fluctuation is comparable to the noise made when the Emperor conquered the Demon God and fought against enemies such as the Whirlpool Demon God.

Logically speaking, they should stay out of it and not interfere in worldly affairs, but this situation undoubtedly deserves special treatment.

Three rays of light shot up into the sky from the top of Qingyun Peak, Aozang Mountain, and Hulao Mountain in Liyue's Jueyunjian, turning into flowing light and colorful clouds and flying towards the direction of Liyue Harbor.

The lights converged in mid-air, and upon closer inspection, these immortals turned out to be in the shape of immortal beasts, with black horns on their heads and wings flapping, in the postures of immortal cranes and black deer respectively.

"How is it, have you seen the Emperor?"

The most impatient was the True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, dressed in white and blue. He hurriedly asked the two old friends beside him as soon as they met.

"Not yet, not yet."

The answers from the two immortals were unexpectedly consistent. With their speed, it would only take them a dozen breaths to get here from thousands of miles away. However, looking at the empty sky from afar, they could only feel the unusual energy surging and colliding in a place they could not see.

Naturally, this cannot be seen by the naked eye. With the help of the Thousand Rocks Army maintaining order and Ningguang's intervention, the people of Liyue Harbor temporarily maintained order.

But a mortal may not see an immortal even once in his lifetime. The arrival of the three great immortals has once again caused a sensation.

"Look there, the sky!"

"Am I dazzled? I think I saw the legendary immortal?"

"No way, could the rumors from Yujingtai be true?"

Liyue is so big that it cannot be summarized by just one mountain or one street. Although the commotion at Yujingtai was loud, it was just an ordinary change in the eyes of people in other neighborhoods. It was the crack that appeared briefly in the sky just now and the several colors on the horizon that attracted their attention more.

The three immortals in Jueyunjian are located at the boundary between Liyue Harbor and the suburbs. There are several isolated peaks here, which are close enough to see the situation in the city but not to completely step into the city and cause chaos.

In front of them, a young immortal in a dark green mask had already stood on the top of the mountain, as if he had been waiting for them for a long time.

"Great Sage who conquers demons! You are the fastest among all the immortals. Did you see what happened just now?"

The last of the Five Yakshas of Liyue, Xiao, who was nicknamed "Wind Wheel Two-Li" and "Golden-Winged Dapeng", looked up at the sky silently, holding an emerald green spear in his hand, and spoke in a low voice.

"It was almost there. I only saw the Emperor's figure fighting with a white-haired man. The fight was so violent that the sky and the earth were shattered. It seemed as if the avenue had been wiped out."

"Then, after the two rays of light collided, they disappeared from my sight."

"Finally, the emperor's dragon body fell from the sky, his body lifeless."

"Emperor, dead? Absolutely impossible!"

Xiao's description was as accurate as possible, but the immortals still couldn't imagine who could fight with the Emperor like this and make the Demon-Subduing Sage unrecognizable.

As he was speaking, a white-haired old man flashed and climbed up the mountain as if no one was around.

"Gechenlang City, you are here too."

The immortals greeted him, but the old man just remained silent.

"The scene I saw was similar to that of the Great Saint who conquered the demons. The figure that fought with the Emperor has never appeared on this continent in at least the past thousand years, and he is not a god from another country."

Grandma Ping evacuated everyone to the best of her ability at the first moment of the disaster, so the scene she saw was almost the same as Xiao's.

The immortals were anxiously waiting for the result. In previous wars, no matter how the war turned out, they could help more or less, but this invisible and intangible scene made it difficult for them to start.

But seeing the chaotic and noisy Liyue Harbor below, Liuyun Jiefeng, who was the most impatient, said angrily:
"Not only did this group of ordinary people not help immediately, they are also foolishly looking for the murderer among ordinary people. It's really ridiculous."

"I think the Thousand Rocks Army is very different from the ancient times!"

As he spoke, Liuyun Jiefeng's tone condensed and he put forward an idea.

"How about we suppress Liyue Harbor first and then find the murderer for the Emperor?"
