As the overwhelming barrage of attacks surged towards her, Ying slowly closed her eyes.
The next second, she opened them, her pupils suddenly emitting a brilliant, dazzling lightning, forming a barrier in front of her.
*Bang bang bang bang—!*
For a moment, the sounds of countless lightning strikes colliding with the barrier echoed endlessly, violently shaking the entire seventh floor.
After a long while, the Calamity finally ceased its attacks, letting out a cold laugh.
"Hmph… a mere mouse, even with two lives, will not be a match for a wild cat."
"Hmm?"
As the smoke and dust dissipated, Ying slowly walked up to the Calamity, smiling and taunting.
"You called yourself a god just now, and me an ant. Why have you now compared yourself to a wild cat?"
"What?!"
The Calamity was greatly shocked. He was certain he hadn't seen Ying make any defensive moves just now, yet she stood before him completely unharmed.
"This… how is this possible…"
"What is impossible?"
Ying summoned a trace of lightning from her palm, a faint smile on her lips.
"You know, the power of the God's Heart is quite useful, much more so than my own."
Upon hearing this, the Calamity's expression drastically changed, and he coldly snarled.
"The God's Heart is still with me, don't get too carried away!"
As he spoke, the Calamity's aura surged instantly, lightning waves crashing one after another, attempting to destroy everything around them.
Ying narrowed her eyes, raised her right arm, and opened her palm. In an instant, lightning poured from Ying's body into the ground, spreading out in all directions.
In that instant, two opposing forces collided, triggering a series of violent explosions.
*Rumble—!*
After the smoke cleared, an immensely colossal thunderball rose into the air, illuminating the entire floor and continuing to expand.
"Mortal, you think absorbing a little divine power means you can stand on par with a god? You're delusional!!"
Furious roars reverberated through the entire space. Seeing this terrifying move, Ying couldn't help but show a hint of annoyance.
Tch… I was hoping to save some of the God's Heart's energy for later…
Oh well, if that's the case, then I'll use him to test out a new move.
With that thought, Ying chuckled, her palms clasped together.
Immediately, dazzling lightning erupted from Ying's body. In the Calamity's horrified gaze, Ying's figure was enveloped by a vast amount of Electro, then slowly ascended, transforming into a colossal titan clad in armor, towering over the world.
This phantom formed of Electro was a hundred meters tall, crackling with lightning, bearing a pair of lightning wings, like a ruler of this world, looking down upon all beings.
Ying stood amidst the lightning, as if the God of Thunder had descended, her entire being exuding a chilling aura.
"This, this, this…"
Witnessing this, Paimon couldn't help but widen her eyes, her face filled with disbelief.
Paimon, who had only recently been woken up, stared at the screen with glowing eyes.
"Woah?! What is that? Susanoo? External manifestation? Dharmakaya? Qi forming wings? In any case, the host is so cool~"
"Oh?"
Looking at the massive figure on the screen, the Doctor couldn't help but feel a sense of pressure.
"Transforming elemental energy to shape a titan of pure energy around oneself, is that it…"
A good idea, fortunately, she only managed this after borrowing the power of the God's Heart, otherwise, I might have felt a hint of anxiety for the later stages.
Within the Spiral Abyss…
Looking down at the Calamity below, who was too astonished to speak, Ying's lips parted, uttering words that struck him with terror.
"This is the correct way to use the God's Heart. Do you know why you cannot directly absorb its energy and make it your own?"
"Because you have not received the God's Heart, nor the recognition of the Electro Archon. That is why you built that automaton, attempting to control it and forcibly acquire its energy."
Ying's voice was chilling, making one's scalp tingle. The Calamity gritted his teeth and retorted.
"Nonsense! I don't need the Electro Archon's recognition! The God's Heart is still with me! You say I can't use it? Then I'll show you!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the thunderball atop the automaton's head expanded dozens of times, erupting with blinding light, its dazzling radiance making it impossible to look at directly.
Ying could feel that the Calamity had poured all of his strength into this move, wanting to annihilate her with it.
"Die… mortal!!"
The next second, the Calamity controlled the thunderball and hurled it directly at Ying.
With a fierce whirring sound, the thunderball streaked through the air, carrying sonic booms and sharp screeches as it hurtled towards Ying.
Watching the thunderball fly towards her, a look of solemnity flashed across Ying's brow, but she soon relaxed, stating with complete confidence.
"Sorry, when it comes to playing with orbs, I'm your ancestor."
"Hummm…"
As Ying chanted softly, the hundred-meter-tall titan suddenly extended its right hand, fingers spread.
Immediately, endless lightning spread from its palm, forming a ball of thunder. With Ying's will, it rapidly expanded, and in the blink of an eye, the entire sixth floor was enveloped in lightning, as if the God of Thunder had descended upon the mortal realm.
Seeing the thunderball before her, which was several times larger than her own, the Calamity's pupils contracted sharply. He instinctively retreated, but it was too late.
*Rumble… Bang—!!!*
Like the explosion of stars, the immense sound deafened the ears, and with a low roar, a visible ripple spread outwards in all directions. The powerful wind pressure blew away all the debris and sand from the previous battle.
At this moment, the entire space fell into a deathly silence.
After a long time, the dust gradually settled.
Ying's figure emerged. The ground beneath her feet was now scorched black. Almost all the debris and dust on the seventh floor had vanished, leaving only the wreckage of the automaton controlled by the Calamity not far away.
*0/1*
Seeing that the number on the screen had not changed, Ying raised an eyebrow. Looking at the mangled body lying on the ground before her, she slowly walked up to the automaton, jumped onto it, and indeed found the immobile Calamity lying in the cockpit.
Ying looked down at the Calamity from above, observing his disheveled state, and said indifferently.
"You lost. Do you have any last words? Say them quickly, before I send you on your way."
The Calamity stared blankly at the figure before him, murmuring to himself.
"Why… why… would a god… lose to a… mortal…"
