Because they were currently within the Eclipsing Shadow Domain, Damien wasn't able to see the grandeur of Twilight Moon. He could only feel the terrifying energy approaching his back as his sword swung downward.
But for those outside the domain, their entire worlds had just flipped upside down. The sun in the sky was covered in a black veil in an instant. Dark clouds blotted out the skies and shadow crows flew wantonly through the air.
The ground within many kilometers was directly corroded and melted, creating a pit that enveloped the surrounding practitioners and even directly killed a few.
As for those who died, they could only blame themselves for treading too close to a battle between people with 4th class power levels.
The scene within the Eclipsing Shadow Domain wasn't nearly as grandiose as the one outside of it, but the concentration of all the rampant mana that caused the environmental changes outside was currently striking towards Damien's back.
At the same time, Damien's own blade carried a terrifying collision force that could raze the surrounding tens or even hundreds of kilometers with ease.
BOOOOOOM!
Both of these strikes struck true at the same time. Damien's blade created a massive crater in the ground with impact force alone, and those two daggers accurately dug into his back and clawed into his body.
"Keuk…!"
Damien coughed out a mouthful and flew forward. Behind him, a massive black hole formed in the air, cracking the Eclipsing Shadow Domain and consuming it whole.
Because the domain was connected to Luo Sheng, the man was injured by its destruction. He could feel his blood rolling in his body, threatening to make its way up his throat.
But he wasn't nearly as injured as Damien. The effects of Twilight Moon weren't simple at all.
The first dagger was straight and honest. The gash it left ran parallel to Damien's spine, shattering his bones and slicing apart his muscles. This strike alone was enough to inhibit his movement ability.
But the true killer was the second dagger. This dagger snaked through the air fiendishly. When it found its target in Damien's back, it didn't simply aim to slash him apart.
Three fierce jabs were let out first. These jabs were aimed straight at the three Nodes that rested along the spinal cord. The dagger went on to cause a few more flesh wounds and gashes after these stabs, but they weren't nearly as harmful.
What Luo Sheng aimed to do was directly cripple Damien. And if Damien was a resident of this unnamed world, he truly would've been finished with that single move.
Unfortunately, Luo Sheng was an Eclipsing Shadow Sect member who didn't know Damien. If he did, he would've aimed to cause far more substantial damage.
But the damage he caused wasn't light. Even if Damien's Ananta Matrix was still functioning properly, his body was a different story. Until Transcendent Regeneration fixed his mangled spine, he wouldn't be able to move properly.
Thus, using Mirage became impossible.
'Good thing I picked these up. I guess it'll also be my first time trying them in combat.'
Damien ignored his injuries. Even if they were serious, they could still be healed. Besides, his nerves were cleanly cut so he couldn't even properly register the pain.
The Twin Moons appeared in his hand upon his summoning. Along with this, two black gems surfaced on his wrists, shining as they recognized the weapon they connected to.
Damien grinned. 'This is our first battle together, so you better not disappoint me!'
Bang!
Freya let loose a bolt of silver spatial mana. When it appeared near Luo Sheng, who was already midway through beginning his next attack, it directly exploded.
A compressed burst of spatial mana wasn't a joke. The explosion tore space asunder, almost forcing Luo Sheng into the chaotic void.
His mana revolved rapidly as he prevented this outcome. But inevitably, he was distracted by his life-or-death predicament.
Hel fired this time. Matching the black gun, a black ball of mana shot from the barrel, its trajectory to the left of Luo Sheng's head.
"Fuck!" Luo Sheng exclaimed when he noticed the incoming attack, but he couldn't move at all. If he stopped resisting the pull of the chaotic void, he'd be shredded without even bones remaining.
This was the true terror in fighting a spatial practitioner. Even if they didn't personally possess enough ability, if their talent was good enough, they could borrow space itself as a knife to kill their enemies.
After all, there were varying levels of space. The Chaotic Void that appeared when Damien shattered space was the third level, but even this was enough to kill an early 4th class like Luo Sheng.
Perhaps only a middle 4th class being could directly resist the chaotic void.
Nevertheless, Luo Sheng's fierce mana revolution was able to prevent him from being consumed. Yet, he'd used up far more mana than he should've at this juncture.
And it was exactly at that moment that the black ball of mana arrived near his body.
Luo Sheng gritted his teeth and shot a bolt of shadow mana into Damien's attack. Even if he couldn't dodge, Luo Sheng wouldn't let a convoluted mass of compressed spatial mana explode next to his head. That was simply asking for death!
BOOM!
The black bullet imploded, causing space to wobble and ripple. It was like a single-target version of the massive black hole Damien conjured earlier.
Once again, the chaotic void was torn open. Once again, Luo Sheng was forced to deplete his mana to resist it, giving Damien a massive upper hand. And once again, Damien fired a slew of bullets from Hel and Freya, forcing Luo Sheng into a corner.
From the start of this battle, Luo Sheng had been dominated. Even when he was able to give Damien fatal injuries, it didn't matter. In the time Damien spent harassing him with the Twin Moons, his spinal injury had already begun its healing process.
'Damn unkillable zombie!' Luo Sheng spat inwardly. He was truly perplexed to have this kind of opponent. The man in front of him didn't even look 30; how could such a genius exist in this world?
They hadn't fought for long, but at their level, drawn-out fights weren't necessary anymore. A true drawn-out fight would only take place if the opponents were truly matched.
But Damien and Luo Sheng? Even Luo Sheng wasn't shameless enough to say he was Damien's match.
After all, even if their power levels were the same, his actual level was far above Damien's!
Still, Luo Sheng was someone who grew up following his older brother around like a slave. To him, the memories of their lives when they were young and adventurous were his most precious.
Luo Tian's resolve was simple. To fight on even after drawing his last breath. And as his staunchest supporter and most loyal subordinate, Luo Sheng naturally imitated this ideology.
Even if Damien was a genius, even if he held an advantage in elements, even if he held every advantage in the world, Luo Sheng wouldn't run away from the battle.
Besides, his opponent seemed to have a grudge against the Eclipsing Shadow Sect, so even if he ran, he wouldn't necessarily be sage.
Ptui!
Luo Sheng spat out a bullet of bad blood. At the same time, the blood remaining in his body began to stir and boil.
His blood essence had been combusted. To defeat Damien, he used his own life as collateral.
Luo Sheng's daggers flashed as he returned to his stance. His eyes became serene, the rampant emotions clouding his thoughts clearing all at once.
From this point on, he'd make no more mistakes.
