Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 450 Abyss

The purple light at the edge of the black hole resembled the pupils of a demon, and the eerily swirling mist seemed like a shield groaning in pain, or the dark forces chuckling in a low voice.

The fused being clenched his teeth, his hands bulging with veins from excessive force, his nails digging deep into his palms, blood dripping from between his fingers, yet he remained completely unaware.

The guardian struggled to maintain his shattered armor, each breath accompanied by the grating sound of metal scraping against metal. Blue energy flickered like a candle in the wind, its light fading through the broken cracks.

He let out a low roar and poured his last bit of power into the ground. The ice barrier rose up like a giant, crystal shield. But as soon as the ice solidified, it was torn to pieces by the powerful suction of the black hole, scattering into ice crystals in the void like a beautiful, desolate ice rain.

"This can't go on!" The Time Watcher clutched her bleeding shoulder, crimson blood dripping from her pale fingers, spreading into eerie flowers on the ground.

Her Star Staff glowed dimly, like dying starlight, and its shaft was covered in cracks, as if it would shatter at any moment.

She took a deep breath, mobilized the remaining power within her body, and painstakingly drew an ancient time rune in the air.

The moment the runes lit up, the surrounding spacetime seemed to be distorted by an invisible hand, creating eerie ripples, and the black hole's devouring speed was indeed slowed down by half a beat.

But this feeble resistance was a drop in the ocean. The dark matter, like a greedy tide, quickly submerged the runes. The runes soon collapsed under the erosion, turning into a sky full of light dust, like a brief but brilliant firework, disappearing into the darkness.

The fused entity's gaze fell upon the unconscious Xiaoying, and its heart clenched instantly. Xiaoying's body became transparent under the black hole's gravity, as if it might dissipate into the darkness at any moment.

The merged entity recalled the mysterious woman's hint in the Star Sand Space, and a resolute light flashed in its eyes.

She gritted her teeth and frantically poured the power of her twins and the star power of her staff into the star-shaped mark on her chest.

In an instant, the golden light burst forth like a supernova, dazzling and bright, forming a swirling cocoon of light around her.

Mysterious runes flowed across the surface of the cocoon of light, and as the runes flickered, they fiercely battled against the dark power of the black hole.

The energy storm generated by the collision of the two forces was like a cataclysmic disaster, shattering the surrounding spacetime and creating countless tiny cracks in the space, like a broken spider web.

Just when everyone was on the verge of despair, a loud crash of breaking chains suddenly came from the depths of the black hole. The sound was deep and shocking, as if an ancient beast had broken free of its shackles.

A colossal figure slowly emerged. It was a giant formed from dark matter, its body as tall as a mountain, and every inch of its skin radiated a chilling aura.

The giant was bound by thicker chains of time than before, each chain engraved with ancient and evil runes that shimmered with a ghostly purple light, as if telling an ancient curse.

The giant opened its eyes, and the eerie purple light flashing within them resembled an evil sun. The oppressive force contained within that light was several times stronger than that of the giant eyes before.

"Foolish ants, thinking you can disrupt my plan?"

The giant's voice was like ten thousand mountains collapsing at once, causing everyone's eardrums to bleed and their consciousness to begin to blur, as if the whole world was trembling in the sound.

The guardian roared, and the broken longsword danced in his hand, creating a fierce sword shadow. Blue energy surged towards the giant like a raging tide.

The giant casually swung the chains, and the immense power instantly shattered the sword shadow. The shockwave, like a violent hurricane, blasted the guardian away.

The guardian crashed heavily into the distorted spacetime wall in the distance, letting out a muffled groan. Several more cracks appeared on its armor, and the blue energy became even weaker.

Seeing this, the Time Watcher raised his staff again, and countless time compasses emerged from the void, emitting a soft light, attempting to trap the giant.

But suddenly the chains on the giant's body swelled up, like an ancient dragon awakening, roaring as it shattered the compass completely. The light turned into starlight and dissipated into the darkness, leaving only a scene of devastation.

The fused entity sensed a familiar power fluctuation within the cocoon of light—it was Xiaoying!

A faint golden light emanated from the unconscious Xiao Ying, and within the light, the phantom of the first observer appeared.

The phantom raised its hand and waved, sending a beam of light containing primordial power toward the giant. Wherever the beam touched, the dark matter disintegrated, emitting a hissing sound.

The giant roared angrily, its voice deafening. It turned its target, and all the chains cascaded down on Little Firefly like a black waterfall.

The fused entity was extremely anxious and broke through the light cocoon at all costs. The three-colored light condensed into a huge light sword in her hand, and the blade shone with a dazzling light, as if it contained the power to create the world.

She swung her sword fiercely at the chains, each swing imbued with unwavering conviction and fearless courage.

The lightsaber clashed with the chains, unleashing a deafening roar, and the powerful energy shockwaves tore countless spatial rifts in the void.

Dark mist seeped from the crack, as if it were the entrance to another world.

The fused being felt as if her arm was about to be shattered, and the excruciating pain spread from her arm to her entire body. However, she gritted her teeth, and the power of her twins surged wildly, forming a powerful torrent within her body.

At that moment, the star-shaped mark on her chest suddenly resonated with the light emanating from Xiao Ying, and an even more powerful force formed between the two of them.

In the light, the starry eyes slowly took shape, radiating a dazzling light. Wherever the light touched, the dark power melted away like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun, and a burnt smell filled the air.

The giant did not stop there. It roared to the sky, its voice filled with madness and resentment. The dark matter in the black hole gathered frantically, forming a huge dark vortex behind it.

A sinister chanting sound emanated from the vortex, like an ancient curse, each note carrying destructive power.

As the chanting continued, the giant's body began to swell, its power increased, and its aura became even more terrifying, as if it could devour the entire universe.

"You think the Starry Eyes can change everything? The true ruler is about to awaken!"

The giant's voice was filled with madness and triumph, as if it had already seen the dawn of victory.

The merged entity, the guardian, and the time watcher exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with determination.

They knew this was their last chance. The three of them channeled their power into their star-like eyes, and the golden, blue, and starlight intertwined to form a massive pillar of light that shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire dark space.

The beam of light collided violently with the dark vortex, causing the entire spacetime to tremble violently, as if the end of the world was imminent.

Space began to distort and deform, and time seemed to stand still. Everything fell into chaos and turmoil.

Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, a clear cry suddenly came from the depths of the black hole. The sound was like heavenly music, which seemed particularly abrupt in this dark space.

An infant-like figure emerged from the darkness, radiating a soft light that contained a power capable of soothing all wounds, like the dawn of hope.

Upon seeing the figure, a flicker of fear crossed the giant's eyes: "Impossible! How could the Infant of Chaos be in your hands?"

Before anyone could react, the giant suddenly transformed into a streak of black light, plunged into the dark vortex, and vanished without a trace.

The infant-like figure slowly floated towards the fused body, and just as it was about to touch her, it suddenly turned into specks of light and vanished.

The tremors of time and space gradually subsided, but a stronger sense of unease rose in everyone's hearts.

Where did that mysterious baby figure come from?

What is the Chaos Infant that the giant spoke of?

Deep within the rift in spacetime, a pair of even more profound and terrifying eyes are silently observing all of this, as if waiting for the next opportunity to arrive...
