    He approached Eve, his speed gradually increasing, from walking to running, finally transforming into a dark red meteor tearing the earth apart! Wherever he passed, he left a straight, utterly destroyed, shattered trail! He didn't use any fancy abilities, only the purest, most primal, and most concentrated form of rage and killing intent—a charge! The greatsword was dragged behind him, its tip slicing through the ground, leaving bottomless furrows. Dark red light gathered on the blade, growing brighter and brighter, like a world-destroying dragon awakening, baring its fangs. At this moment, he was no longer "Red Flame" Zhu Ming; he was destruction itself, an unstoppable, surging end! Faced with this pure, overwhelming charge of destruction, Eve, exhausted and on the verge of disintegration, showed a near-despair in her eyes for the first time. She tried to raise her staff, trying to gather a sliver of light again, but the tip of the staff only flickered a few times before completely dimming. She could only watch helplessly as the dark red meteor of death, carrying the force to annihilate everything, hurtled towards her! "Clang—!" A crisp yet chilling sound echoed through the ruins. Zhu Ming's greatsword, imbued with annihilating power, slashed fiercely at Eve's head, but was firmly blocked by a suddenly illuminating golden light shield. The light flowed, runes appeared and disappeared, absorbing and dissolving the destructive impact completely. Luo Hao, controlling Eve's body, was even forced to instinctively raise his arm to block by the terrifying aura so close at hand. The expected death did not come; he stared in astonishment at the seemingly thin yet indestructible light shield. "It's 'Death's Protection'!" Bai Zhenghu's voice rang out in his mind just in time, urgent with the relief of surviving a close call, "Eve's true form's life-saving ability can absolutely withstand a fatal attack!" In mid-air, Zhu Ming was bounced back by the force of the light shield; his face showed no surprise, only an unfathomable coldness. Without even a moment's hesitation, he propelled himself into the sky, hovering beneath the darkest of the pre-dawn skies. He raised one arm high, fingers spread, palm facing upwards. In an instant, purer and more violent red energy surged forth from his body, flowing like rivers into the sea, converging in his palm! The energy rapidly compressed and condensed, transforming into an incomparably blazing red sphere—its radiance was so intense that it truly resembled a miniature sun held in his hand, illuminating the surrounding ruins and gloom with a blood-red glow! "It's his ultimate move—'Annihilation'!" In the deep pit, Eve's expression suddenly changed drastically, and Luo Hao couldn't help but roar, his voice carrying a barely perceptible tremor. He urgently asked in his mind, "Ou Mingyue! Can your 'Holy Light - Full Counterattack' block it?!" "This body has reached its limit!" Ou Mingyue's voice was filled with desperate panic, "If we forcefully push the power beyond the critical point, we won't be able to suppress 'that' within us!" "That's still better than being blasted into dust right now!" Luo Hao's will roared, overwhelming all hesitation. The next moment, Eve, whose body surface was covered with porcelain-like cracks, resolutely raised her finger to the sky! A golden beam of light, far purer and more solid than ever before, crashed down, completely enveloping her—it was Ou Mingyue's all-out [Holy Light - Full Counterattack]! But that wasn't enough! Luo Hao's fighting instincts drove him, and almost simultaneously, another clear radiance bloomed from within—Wen Ru's [Holy Light Baptism]* was activated once more! Her senses were amplified to the extreme, and her nearly depleted energy seemed to be infused with a new source. Although the danger of her body collapsing remained, her power surged instantly! Double holy light overlapped, and the golden flames surrounding Eve soared into the sky, no longer in an attacking form, but transforming into a thick, majestic golden barrier, like a mountain range, standing between her and the "red sun" in the sky. Behind the barrier was Eve's resolute gaze and her still crumbling, yet stubbornly upright body. Above the barrier was Zhu Ming's indifferent gaze, and in his hand, the weapon that would decide life and death—[The Day of Annihilation]. After a brief standoff, Annihilation descended, the fireball flying towards Eve at incredible speed. The moment it touched the golden flames' protective shield, the collision of the two energies caused an unparalleled explosion. The immense energy clashing instantly tore through space; the void of space, like a torn canvas, cracked open, revealing a dark and inexplicable space within. Even from the very first contact, Eve knew she was utterly powerless to resist. Despair washed over her like a tidal wave, engulfing her once more. The brief clash of energy didn't last long. Zhu Ming's fireball, named Annihilation, tore through Eve's golden flame shield with unstoppable force. The defense constructed of golden holy light held for only a moment before this absolute "annihilation." Ou Mingyue's all-out "Holy Light - Full Counter" couldn't even deflect the power by an inch before shattering inch by inch amidst the engulfing energy. The fireball struck Eve's body without hindrance. "BOOM—!!!!!" A crimson beam of destructive light swept in all directions, completely engulfing the girl's figure. After a series of explosions, the light and dust gradually dissipated. Only a massive crater, resembling a meteorite impact, remained on the ground. A green light flickered within the crater, but the scene inside was horrific. Eve's body was mostly charred, with only half a head and a mangled upper body remaining, like a torn doll. Although the green light emanating from Su Jing's ultimate healing was working its best to repair her body, with flesh and bones regenerating at a visible speed, the wounds were simply too extensive. Even with Su Jing's extraordinary abilities, he couldn't immediately heal the damage. Zhu Ming had already reached the top of the pit, his cold gaze radiating a chilling despair that sent the nine consciousnesses within Eve's body plummeting into an icy abyss. The next moment, Zhu Ming swung his greatsword and charged straight at Eve, his figure like a meteor burning with red flames crashing into the pit where Eve lay. Zhu Ming reached Eve and struck her on the head with a single blow, burying her head in the ground. With his other hand, he raised his greatsword high, the dark red tip gleaming with the light of annihilation, aiming at the faintly beating heart within her chest. Just then, a familiar, heart-wrenching cry pierced the deathly silence of the battlefield, penetrating even his icy killing intent, and clearly struck his ears: "Amin! No—!"
