Chapter 30: Desperate Situation, Isaac's Unparalleled Wrath!
The astonishment in the black-robed man's eyes lasted only a moment, then turned into a sinister sneer. He said coldly, "It seems you are indeed extraordinary, actually managing to struggle within the 'World-Destroying Symbol.' Unfortunately, the power of this symbol is inexhaustible; the more you resist, the more you will be devoured!"
Guided by the Symbol of Annihilation, the black vortex grew ever larger, utterly destroying the surrounding space and creating an endless abyss of darkness. The light around Isaac grew increasingly faint in the darkness, as if it might be extinguished at any moment. He could feel the power of destiny within him gradually dwindling, his strength about to be exhausted.
"Is this all you've got? Nothing special." Isaac sneered, but he also realized that this battle had to be ended quickly, otherwise he would be destroyed by the darkness and have no chance of escaping.
"System, activate the final energy mode," Isaac hissed. He knew that if he didn't come up with a surprise move soon, he would be completely trapped in this dark vortex.
The system notification quickly responded: [Warning: Activating Energy Mode will cause a severe depletion of Destiny Power, but it can unleash its full power for a short period. Confirm?]
"Confirmed!" Isaac answered without hesitation. His goal had always been singular: to defeat all enemies who stood in his way and become the true ruler of this land!
As soon as he finished speaking, the power of destiny within Isaac began to surge wildly, golden light radiating from his body, transforming into a golden dragon that fought against the dark vortex. This light was incredibly dazzling, tearing apart the surrounding darkness inch by inch, illuminating the entire space!
The man in black robes was taken aback by what he saw, but then sneered, "Overestimating yourself! This World-Destroying Symbol is a supreme technique bestowed upon me by the Alliance of the Heavens. How could you possibly contend with it?"
As he spoke, he formed hand seals again, pushing the power of the World-Destroying Symbol to its limit. The dark power within the vortex surged wildly, transforming into a massive black chain that instantly bound Isaac's limbs, attempting to seal him completely.
Isaac felt his life force being drained, as if even his soul was being bound by this dark power. Yet his expression remained sharp as a sword, showing no sign of yielding. With all his might, he roared, "Mere chains, you dare to try and trap me?"
In an instant, Isaac's entire body erupted with dazzling light once more, golden energy burning like flames, shaking off the black chains one by one! He gripped the Blade of Destiny tightly and slashed fiercely at the dark vortex in front of him!
"boom--"
The light of the Blade of Destiny struck the dark vortex, unleashing a deafening roar. The immense recoil sent Isaac and the man in black robes staggering back several steps. Isaac gritted his teeth, steadying himself, while the man in black robes' expression darkened, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
"It seems I underestimated you," the man in black robes said coldly. He then slowly raised his hands, clasped his palms together, and compressed the power of the World-Destroying Symbol into a ball of extreme dark energy, which transformed into a talisman and was imprinted on his forehead.
At this moment, the black-robed man's aura surged, and the entire space seemed to be under his control, with the surrounding darkness appearing to become part of his power. His eyes emitted a cold light, and he seemed to transform into the source of darkness.
"Isaac, your strength has indeed exceeded my expectations, but from now on, you will have nowhere to escape!" The man in black robes sneered, his figure vanishing like a ghost in an instant, and the next moment he appeared behind Isaac, his hands carrying terrifying dark power, striking straight at Isaac's back!
Isaac whirled around, his Blade of Destiny flashing with golden light as he met the black-robed man's palm strike. The two forces collided in mid-air, erupting in countless sparks. Isaac's strength was almost completely pushed to its limit, but he did not back down; instead, he fought with increasing ferocity.
A flicker of impatience flashed in the black-robed man's eyes, clearly surprised by Isaac's tenacity. He roared, and the dark power within him surged once more, transforming into streaks of black phantoms, like an evil god from another world, opening its massive maw in an attempt to annihilate Isaac completely.
Isaac felt immense pressure, but his gaze remained calm and resolute. He knew that the outcome of this battle hinged on this moment. Without further hesitation, the power of destiny within him was fully unleashed. The Blade of Destiny in his hand transformed into a golden light that pierced through heaven and earth, carrying unparalleled power as it slashed directly at the phantom of the evil god!
"Blade of Destiny, shatter!"
With a roar from Isaac, the Blade of Destiny traced a dazzling arc through the air, slashing directly at the phantom of the evil god. Golden light tore through the darkness, creating a massive rift that crushed all of the black-robed man's power.
The black-robed man's eyes were filled with shock. He had never imagined that this chosen one could actually shatter the ultimate power of the World-Destroying Symbol. His body swayed precariously, his dark power rapidly draining away, blood gushing from his mouth, his eyes dimming.
“How…is this possible…” the man in black robes muttered, his eyes filled with resentment and fear.
Isaac stared coldly at him, raised the Blade of Destiny, and his icy voice echoed in the air: "Your so-called power to destroy the world is nothing but a clown before me. I am the true ruler of all the heavens!"
Having said that, Isaac unleashed a fatal blow without hesitation. Golden light enveloped the black-robed man's body, utterly shattering him. The black-robed man let out a scream as his body gradually dissipated in the light, eventually turning into nothingness.
The surrounding space returned to calm, and the power of darkness dissipated as if it had never existed. Isaac sheathed the Blade of Destiny, sensing that the power within him was nearly exhausted, but his expression remained sharp, filled with determination and confidence.
Just then, that majestic voice resounded once more in the sky, carrying boundless pressure, as if announcing some kind of sacred judgment: "Isaac, you have passed the second trial of strength. Your courage and power have been recognized, but this is only the beginning. The trials to come will be even more severe, so be prepared!"
Isaac smiled coldly, looked up and stared directly at the holy light, and replied without fear: "I fear no trial! No matter how many obstacles there are in the myriad realms, I will crush them all!"
The voice seemed to admire his determination, then gradually disappeared into the air. Isaac knew that he had been officially recognized as a Trialer of the Heavens, and what awaited him in the future were even more powerful figures and trials from different worlds.
The system notification sounded again: [Congratulations on passing the second stage of the Trials of the Heavens. Reward: Enhanced Destiny Power, unlocking the "Eye of Destiny" skill.]
Isaac paused for a moment, then his gaze shifted. His eyes seemed to see through space, revealing the truth of everything, even detecting hidden shifts in power. He realized that the "Eye of Destiny" would become a crucial force in his future trials.
"The path to the heavens has only just begun," Isaac thought to himself, his eyes gleaming.
