Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 1017: Conclusion

Despair, rage, unwillingness,

A flood of negative emotions crashed through Asar’s heart like a tidal wave.

But among them, The strongest emotion was undoubtedly shock.

"Judgment Saint?! What, what nonsense?!! She’s clearly an Abyssal Lord?! How could she possibly be a Holy Maiden?!! What kind of joke is THIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!!!!!!!!"

Asar let out a hysterical roar, unable to control her emotions any longer.

Though her heart rejected it a thousand times over, feeling the trembling in her soul and the absolute suppression of her divine power, Asar seemed forced to accept this reality.

The Judgment Saint, Tasked with passing judgment and sentencing. Their authority manifested as the Eyes of Judgment.

Having absolute suppression over users of divine power. Once the Eyes of Judgment deemed someone guilty, the Judgment Saint could strip away the sinner’s power, even forcefully control their body. Exactly what Yumo was doing now.

Which meant,

This somewhat ethereal magnificent hall she was in now was the legendary Judgment Temple?!

Why,

Why,

She was supposed to be a monster who had corrupted the Judgment Temple, so how could she use the Judgment Temple?! Even use the Eyes of Judgment! And declare ME a sinner?! Why, why why whyyyyy!! The wasn’t supposed to go like this!

Asar let out near-breaking screams over and over.

Unfortunately, No matter how much She rebelled, her body remained under Yumo’s power control, holding the blade against her own neck. As the blade slowly sank into her flesh drop by drop, Asar had no energy left to consider those irrelevant questions, all her strength focused on resisting Yumo’s power, trying to regain control of her body.

However, Under the gaze of the Judgment Eyes, Asar’s efforts ultimately ended in failure.

Through attempt after attempt, Asar’s heart gradually became bound by chains of ’despair’, dragged deep into that endless dark abyss.

Why, Why did it turn out like this?

Brother sacrificed his life, hiding my soul in this body, allowing me to awaken my memories through his soul at the critical moment.

All these years I’ve worked tirelessly for the final plan,

Struggling to survive, being subservient... Even having to bow and scrape before Tania... Finally enduring until now, even suppressing Yumo, victory was within reach! But, why... why did it turn out like this?! Why can you use the Eyes of Judgment!!

I can’t accept this!

I really can’t accept thisssssss!

Goddess,

Guiding Saint!

Are you toying with meeeee!

Her emotions nearly breaking down, tears began falling uncontrollably like loose pearls from the white-haired girl’s eyes. She sobbed while struggling desperately, trying to regain control of her body.

However, it was all in vain.

Asar tried to summon Eos for help,

But with her body control fluctuating, even mobilizing divine power to summon Eos became impossible.

Asar could only cry in despair and unwillingness, staring fixedly at the blade continuously cutting into her neck, watching helplessly... as the energy blade drew ever closer to the origin core in her neck. Now that she had severed connections with all soul sharers, once she died... it would truly be the end.

"No, no... I, I don’t want to die like this..."

Under the intense pain, light returned to Asar’s eyes as she uttered her final struggling words.

But this was merely a momentary final flicker.

The next instant,

A flash of golden blood spraying,

Asar’s head flew into the air, and the origin core hidden in her neck was, in that moment, cut in half.

For a moment, all was silent, save for the sound of the head rolling on the ground.

Watching this scene before her, Yumo’s eyes showed no fluctuation.

Then, she casually raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

Instantly, Twelve towering pillars suddenly released dazzling golden-red light, which quickly gathered beneath Asar’s body. As the light poured in, the magic array in the center of the temple suddenly activated, and the judgment fires meant to annihilate sinners instantly rose from the ground!! Bursting through the starry ceiling, completely engulfing Asar’s body.

As the golden-red fires dissipated, the judgment platform in the temple’s center seemed to have undergone a purification ritual - not only was the body gone, but even the bloodstains had vanished.

Asar, who would have sacrificed others’ lives, showed no signs of revival.

Everything in the world,

Seemed to return to peace in this moment.

"It’s over."

Looking at the empty hall, Yumo said calmly.

Then, The dense divine power swirling around her gradually dispersed.

The golden runes in her eyes slowly faded away.

And as the golden runes disappeared, the huge Eye of the Judge behind her slowly closed, and after a moment of distortion, vanished without a trace. At the same time, the surrounding massive and magnificent hall gradually became insubstantial.

Finally, When the divine power aura around Yumo completely disappeared, the Judgment Temple also dissolved, transforming into countless points of golden-red energy light, returning into Yumo’s body.

The distorted space around returned to familiar blue skies and white clouds.

"With this, it’s truly over."

Unconsciously, Yumo couldn’t help but press her hand to her chest, letting out a long breath, the boulder that had been pressing on her heart for so long finally crumbling in this moment.

It seems, Mengxi and that Goddess didn’t deceive me. This power really does counter Asar completely...

No, Not just countering Asar, it seems anyone using the divine and holy power system would be countered by it.

The Eyes of Judgment?

Was this what the Goddess was working towards all this time, hoping I could master this power?

Raising her hand to press against her eyes, Yumo pondered complexly.

However, Using it now was quite strenuous for her.

Feeling her body riddled with holes from the conflict between divine power and Shadow power, Yumo’s face showed a trace of bitterness. If she hadn’t forcefully dispersed Momo’s power and the dense Shadow power earlier, the divine power leaking out when using the Judgment Temple would have made her body completely ruined.

Ah, It seems I still can’t use it recklessly.

Sighing helplessly a few times, after quickly adjusting the power circulation in her body, Yumo turned her attention back to the ground.

Surrounded by blood butterflies, she slowly descended from the sky, landing on the dried ground.

There, the beautiful silver-haired girl stood with her hands behind her back, smiling to welcome Yumo’s return.

Seeing Yumo somewhat weakened but largely unharmed, Mengxi couldn’t help but show a sweet and radiant smile from the bottom of her heart. In this moment, there was not a trace of pressure in the silver-haired girl’s eyes; the previous worried expression had vanished the instant the Judgment Temple was summoned.

"Welcome back, Yumo."

"Mm, I’m back."

Yumo smiled in response, her gaze toward Mengxi unconsciously filled with deep gratitude.

"Thank you, silly girl, for helping me again. Without the divine power you gave me just now... I probably couldn’t have activated the Judgment Temple’s power either. How are you now? Are you alright?"

"What could be wrong?"

Mengxi waved her hand dismissively:

"Don’t worry about me, I just exhausted my divine power, that’s all. After some time, I’ll recover. However, if wifey really wants to thank me, then after we return, just be obedient and don’t act recklessly anymore, okay?"

"I understand. But speaking of..."

Furrowing her brows slightly, Yumo looked around somewhat puzzled:

"The demon goddess who was controlling your movements earlier, how... did she disappear?"

"About that..."

Speaking of this,

Mengxi seemed to gradually recover her composure from her excited and joyful emotions, glancing behind her somewhat confused:

"Now that you mention it... She were clearly suppressing me from behind earlier, how did she suddenly vanish?"

"Did she disappear after the Judgment Temple was summoned?"

"Seems like it."

"Strange..."

Sensing the remaining pale Shadow power in the surroundings, Yumo’s eyes narrowed slightly as she gazed thoughtfully toward the distant sky...
