“Ohhhhh!!!”

The Child of Chaos struck by the white radiance let out an angry roar. Meanwhile, Fang Zheng saw the “space” around him crack like glass hit by a stone. Accompanied by the sound of “krack krack,” the cracks grew larger, and then, with a “bang,” the fragments of space around the Child of Chaos shattered. Immediately, a giant rift appeared, sucking in everything around it like a black hole.

Damn it!

Fang Zheng quickly thrust his Sky-Cleaving Sword into the ground, gripping it tightly with both hands. He hadn't expected that this so-called “banishment” would affect everyone indiscriminately. Normally, in novels, banishing demons is always a targeted single skill, right?

The others were not faring any better. Shi Dong and Mart had to use all their strength to lift the coffin lid upright. A shining white beam shot out, maintaining the rift in space. Several Templars lay flat on the ground, clinging to anything they could grab. Fang Zheng was also struggling; his body was already airborne. If it weren't for the Sky-Cleaving Sword firmly planted in the ground, he would have been sucked into that giant “vacuum cleaner” by now.

But that wasn't the main problem. The real trouble was that damned Child of Chaos. Half of its body had already fallen into the space rift, yet its hands and feet still clung tightly to the edges, trying to climb out.

“Grab my hand, kid!”

Shi Dong, while holding onto a slab, extended his hand towards Fang Zheng. But Fang Zheng didn't respond. He frowned, glancing at the Child of Chaos behind him, then turned his gaze back to the coffin lid in front of him—the Holy Radiance on it had begun to wane. Shi Dong and Mart also looked tired, clearly unable to hold on much longer. But seeing the state of the Child of Chaos, it seemed like it could still hold on.

This way, they'll surely die.

Without further thought, Fang Zheng immediately made a decision. The Child of Chaos seemed to be withstanding the pull of the space rift and was even beginning to climb out inch by inch. The space rift was becoming unstable. He didn't know how much longer Shi Dong and Mart could last, but they were clearly in bad shape.

There's only one way.

Thinking this, Fang Zheng pondered for a moment. In the world of Dark Souls, he had already learned how to seek life from death. For him, a little adventure was nothing, and besides… Fang Zheng had his trump card.

Thinking this, Fang Zheng looked up at his system. The teleportation option was in its countdown phase.

Ten seconds.

“Fang Zheng, what are you doing!”

Seeing Fang Zheng not responding, Shi Dong shouted again. Fang Zheng glanced at him and then smiled. Suddenly, Fang Zheng pulled out the Sky-Cleaving Sword from the ground and flipped himself towards the space rift.

“Kid, what are you doing!”

Seeing this, Shi Dong was shocked. He tried to get up to stop him, but the immense wind pressure forced him back to the ground. He could only watch as Fang Zheng flew through the air like a bird, turning into a beam of white light and striking towards the Child of Chaos.

“——-!!”

Feeling the impending danger, the Child of Chaos roared. Although its limbs were busy anchoring itself, it didn't mean it was helpless. Its chest armor suddenly flipped open, and two long arms reached out, grabbing towards Fang Zheng.

Facing the oncoming claws, Fang Zheng raised his Sky-Cleaving Sword high and slashed down. The blade clashed with the iron-like claws, making a dull collision sound. At the same time, the Holy Power on the coffin lid seemed to be exhausted. The white beam keeping the space rift open disappeared, and the rift began to close. The Child of Chaos roared, and with a forceful push, half of its body emerged from the rift. Just a bit more effort, and it would be free…

But in the next moment, dazzling white radiance forced it to close its eyes.

“That is…”

At that moment, the Templars were stunned. When they saw the Child of Chaos break free from the rift, they thought they had failed. But then Fang Zheng did something that shocked everyone—he pressed his longsword forward. The silver-white longsword instantly emitted an unbearable radiance. Pure Holy Light burst forth, transforming into a figure with silver wings, bypassing the Child of Chaos's defenses, and charging towards its unprotected body.

“Angel!”

Mart screamed, and the Child of Chaos was too late to react. It could only watch helplessly as the figure formed by light, along with the sword, plunged into its chest. The tremendous impact pushed the Child of Chaos back into the space rift. This time, it couldn't maintain its balance and, with a scream, let go. It tumbled into the space rift, but it wasn't willing to give up just yet. The claws from its chest lunged at Fang Zheng in a final attempt.

“Clang!”

Fang Zheng swung his longsword, parrying the Child of Chaos's desperate attack. The angel turned into a beam of light, returning to the Sky-Cleaving Sword, while the Child of Chaos vanished into the void, screaming.

But for Fang Zheng, the crisis was not over.

The space rift was sucking in everything around like a black hole, and Fang Zheng was being pulled towards it like a fish caught in a whirlpool.

Three seconds left.

The space rift had shrunk to the size of half a person, but Fang Zheng was now less than a meter away. In a blink, he would be wholly sucked in or, worse, sliced in half by the closing rift.

Time's up.

However, Fang Zheng didn't panic. He kept his eyes fixed on the system information. The moment the teleportation option became active, he quickly pressed it. A bright white halo appeared in front of him, swallowing him whole.

And at that moment, the space rift closed swiftly, vanishing into thin air.

“…..”

For a moment, there was a deathly silence in the Great Hollow. The Templars watched in disbelief, completely uncertain of what to say. To them, it felt like a dream, but they all knew it wasn't.

“Damn it!”

Shi Dong pounded the ground in frustration, his face full of regret. He hadn't seen clearly what Fang Zheng had done at the end, but the fact that the young man wasn't there spoke volumes.

“Shi Dong, tell me, just who is Fang Zheng?”

Mart now realized something was off. He had thought Fang Zheng was just promising, but after seeing the angel, he realized things weren't that simple.

“Don't ask. I'm not going to tell you. Ugh…”

Shi Dong didn't answer Mart's question. He sighed deeply, looking complexly at the now-empty ground.

“That kid… really…”

“Alright, Shi Dong, relax. I think he'll be fine.”

Seeing Shi Dong's expression, Mart patted his shoulder.

“He could summon an angel, so he must be favored by the Goddess. The Goddess won't let him be harmed.”

“Hopefully… The kid is still young… Ugh, I should have…”

“Boom…”

Shi Dong's words were interrupted as the Great Hollow started to tremble. Cracks appeared everywhere, and rocks mixed with dust fell. It might have been the loss of the sealing power or the intense battle earlier that had destabilized it. The Great Hollow couldn't hold any longer. Seeing this, everyone was alarmed.

“Damn, we need to get out of here quickly!”

Under Shi Dong and Mart's leadership, the remaining Templars quickly evacuated the Great Hollow. Behind them, rocks and dust cascaded down like a tide, burying the entire space.
