Chapter 31: A New Ability Awakens! The Eye of Destiny
Isaac felt a surge of power from the void welling up in his eyes. His vision suddenly expanded, and the atmosphere of heaven and earth became incredibly clear. Every flow of energy and every tremor of space seemed to reveal its patterns in his eyes. He felt as if he could see through everything, grasp the truth from the root of the world, and even see through the essence of the rules.
"This is the Eye of Destiny?" Isaac was startled, realizing that this would become an excellent tool for him to explore the trials of the heavens and uncover hidden powers.
He slowly surveyed his surroundings. Under the gaze of the Eye of Destiny, this seemingly quiet and unremarkable space revealed numerous energy patterns. He clearly saw that this space was entangled by intricate rules, forming a hidden barrier, as if designed to bind or test those who had intruded. Isaac smiled coldly. He understood that the trials of the Alliance of Gods were far from over; endless challenges still awaited him.
"What appears to be a protective trial is not merely a contest of strength, but also a battle of will and wisdom," Isaac murmured, the Eye of Destiny flashing sharply in his eyes. He decided to proactively explore the secrets of these rules, uncover the foundation of the Alliance of Gods, and seek his true path to the highest position.
Just as Isaac was deep in thought, the surrounding space suddenly shifted, the ground gradually cracked open, revealing a pitch-black fissure, as if leading to some unfathomable dimension. Along with it came a strange, chilling aura, brimming with boundless killing intent.
Isaac frowned slightly, raised the Blade of Destiny slightly, and stared coldly at the crack. After a moment, a chilling voice came from the crack, carrying a deep sense of oppression, as if it could freeze the soul.
"Welcome, Isaac, the trial seeker, to the 'Endless Abyss.' Every step here is a trial leading to the ultimate end, and only those who pass through it can advance to the next level of destiny."
Isaac sneered, "Another trial? In that case, let me see what this so-called Endless Abyss is capable of."
Without fear, he stepped into the crevice. In an instant, a cataclysmic change occurred. He felt as if he had fallen into an endless, dark land, the air thick with intense resentment, his feet resting on ashes, where the remains of countless living beings seemed to slumber.
Isaac looked around and realized that this was an extremely dangerous trial space. Under the gaze of the Eye of Destiny, he could clearly sense the killing intent around him. The creatures in the darkness exuded a chilling aura, as if they were waiting for their prey to appear.
"Welcome, trial seeker." A chilling voice suddenly rang out, and a tall figure clad in black armor emerged from the darkness, followed by countless shadowy figures, resembling an endless undead army.
Isaac coldly stared at the newcomer, his Eye of Destiny swiftly locking onto the man's aura and detecting the unusual fluctuations emanating from him. This man's power possessed an extremely chilling quality, as if it were one with this abyss.
"Who are you?" Isaac asked coldly, slightly raising the Blade of Destiny in his hand, ready to strike at any moment.
The man glanced at them and sneered, "I am the guardian of the Endless Abyss, known as the 'Lord of the Dead.' My duty is to transform every trial participant who steps into this place into a part of this abyss."
Before he finished speaking, the Undead Lord waved his hand, and countless shadowy figures rushed towards Isaac in an instant. These shadowy figures were of various shapes and seemed to be creatures swallowed by the abyss. Their eyes flashed with a crimson light, filled with endless resentment and killing intent!
Isaac snorted coldly, and with a sudden swing of the Blade of Destiny, golden light drew a dazzling arc in the darkness, cleaving the shadowy figures in two. However, the shadowy figures instantly regenerated, as if they possessed immortality, and surged towards him once more!
"Interesting." Isaac's gaze sharpened, and his Eye of Destiny activated rapidly, detecting a regenerative power within the shadows. These shadows seemed to depend on the Undead Lord's energy for existence; as long as the Undead Lord's energy remained, they would endlessly resurrect!
"Eye of Destiny, break!" Isaac shouted, a golden light flashing in his eyes as he pierced through the barrier of darkness and locked onto the core energy of the Undead Lord.
He swiftly gathered all his divine power, gripped the Blade of Destiny, and transformed into a golden streak of light, heading straight for the Lich King! The Lich King's expression changed, and he quickly waved his hand to summon more shadowy figures to block his way, but they were all cut down by Isaac's Blade of Destiny, offering no resistance whatsoever.
"Your power is nothing more than this," Isaac said coldly, the Blade of Destiny in his hand bursting with dazzling light as it slashed straight towards the Undead Lord's chest!
A flicker of terror crossed the Undead Lord's eyes as he retreated hastily, attempting to dodge the attack. However, Isaac's speed far exceeded his expectations; the Blade of Destiny pierced his chest in an instant, destroying his core energy!
"Ah—" The Undead Lord let out a shrill scream as his entire body gradually disintegrated in the light, turning into countless black fragments that vanished into the air.
Isaac sheathed his Blade of Destiny, coldly surveying his surroundings, knowing full well that this trial in the abyss had only just begun.
As he prepared to move forward, the Eye of Destiny detected an unusual fluctuation once more. Following the fluctuation, he discovered a massive magic circle emerging from the ground, radiating intense light, as if guiding him to a path leading deeper into the world.
"Is this the trial gate to the higher levels?" Isaac muttered to himself, then stepped onto the magic circle and was instantly enveloped by a powerful force, teleporting him to an even more bizarre space.
He looked around, and this space was different from the endless abyss he had just been in. Here, all was silent, and a chilling solemnity permeated the air. The solemn statues seemed frozen in time, filled with an atmosphere of death.
"Welcome to the Temple of Time, trial seeker." A hoarse voice rang in his ears, carrying an invisible power that seemed to control everything.
Isaac looked toward the source of the sound and saw a man in a silver cloak standing at the front, his eyes gleaming with a cold light. His aura was as deep as an abyss, seemingly inextricably linked to the laws of time.
"Are you the guardian of the Temple of Time?" Isaac asked coldly.
The man smiled slightly and nodded slowly: "That's right, I am the God of Time. This is your second trial—the Judgment of Time."
Isaac scoffed, "The judgment of time? Don't think you can trap me with the power of time."
The God of Time sneered, "Mortals are always foolish. Time is the supreme law of the universe, and you will ultimately pay the price for it all."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Time Mage waved his hand gently, and countless time rifts appeared throughout the space, firmly trapping Isaac. He began to manipulate these rifts with his hands, as if to freeze Isaac's time forever at this moment.
Isaac felt a strong sense of constraint, as if the power within him was being suppressed by the power of time, becoming incredibly sluggish. However, his Eye of Destiny quickly activated, allowing him to clearly perceive the pathways of the power of time, and even glimpse the core of these temporal rifts.
"You think you can control me with mere power of time?" Isaac roared, and the power of destiny erupted within him once more, forming a golden light that tore apart the shackles of time layer by layer!
The God of Time's expression changed drastically, clearly not expecting Isaac to be able to break free from the constraints of time. He quickly formed hand seals, attempting to unleash the power of time once more, but Isaac no longer gave him any chance.
"Eye of Destiny, Slash of Fate!" Isaac roared, channeling all his power into the Blade of Destiny, and slashed fiercely at the God of Time. The Eye of Destiny precisely detected the God of Time's weakness, and wherever its light reached, it utterly shattered the power of time.
The Time God's body gradually crumbled in the light, his eyes filled with resentment, powerless to resist. His body turned to nothingness under Isaac's attack, gradually disappearing into the air.
