The sudden surge of power from Luo Qingyan had completely shattered the established balance.
With the augmentation of her formidable physique, she instantaneously gained absolute dominance.
"Divine Punishment!"
Seeing Anfiya being impaled and sent flying into the air, Luo Qingyan raised her hand again. A pure and blazing holy light descended from the heavens, striking Anfiya directly on the head.
This blow, combined with her being flung upward, sent Anfiya plummeting rapidly from the sky once more.
As Luo Qingyan charged forward again, Anfiya finally managed to regain some semblance of stability amidst the relentless assault. She unleashed a vast expanse of frost and mist with her hands, engulfing Luo Qingyan.
However, against Luo Qingyan, who was imbued with prayer runes and a faint golden flame, such an obstruction was utterly insignificant. Luo Qingyan charged forward fearlessly, delivering another sword strike to Anfiya's head.
"Ugh! Hraaaah!!!!"
Anfiya's spiritual body, wounded once more, cried out in pain, letting out a loud roar.
In that instant, the situation dramatically changed.
As her roar echoed, wave after wave of thunderous sound erupted, the rumbling force threatening to shatter one's skull.
Even those on the viewing platform, separated by a protective barrier, felt an uncomfortable ringing in their ears and dizziness, let alone Luo Qingyan within the arena.
Luo Qingyan had never encountered such a peculiar attack. She was momentarily stunned, staggering backward, clutching her head, and unable to mount any coherent offense.
Seizing this moment of respite, Anfiya quickly adjusted her state, patching up the holes in her spiritual form that had been inflicted by the sword.
So this is the origin of the epithet "Ancient Roar"...
Shaking her still groggy head, Luo Qingyan took a deep breath.
This exaggerated sonic attack was truly terrifying. It was only because her mental attribute was exceptionally high, combined with her resistance to all forms of attack and unparalleled recovery, that she could endure it.
Otherwise, for someone slightly weaker, Anfiya might have very well roared them to death on the spot.
After all, Anfiya's roar was not merely a sonic attack; it also carried powerful air blasts and vibrations.
The blast that had just hit her head was likely enough to cleave mountains and split rocks.
But if that were all, it wouldn't be enough to defeat me!
Sacred Skill: Radiance of the End!
Luo Qingyan decided to stop playing around and thrust her luminous sword forward, concentrating a thick layer of fiery light upon its blade.
Simultaneously, Luo Qingyan's mana surged to its absolute peak.
The overwhelming holy power threatened to engulf the entire arena.
What a terrifying prelude to a light cannon!
Anfiya's pupils contracted sharply. She never expected someone as slender as Luo Qingyan to unleash such immense mana from her frail body.
Furthermore, the speed at which this mana converged was outrageously fast.
Under normal circumstances, charging up a proper light cannon would require at least half a minute of sustained energy accumulation.
This was the inevitable process of converting mana into the desired energy type. Even with immense power, one had to adhere to objective laws and could not simply bypass such fundamental principles.
Yet, Luo Qingyan defied convention, reaching her peak in less than three seconds, with the light cannon fully charged and ready to fire.
It was as if she had activated a ten-times speed boost!
Knowing that a direct confrontation with the cannon would be too late, Anfiya's mind raced, searching for a solution.
But no matter how she thought, her mind seemed to circle back to only one option.
Alas, though it felt somewhat unfair and akin to bullying, there was no other way now.
Then let's do this!
Boom!
As the light cannon shot out and approached, Anfiya sighed slightly. She suddenly extended her right hand, piercing straight through her own body, and grasped her heart.
Rumble!
Since Anfiya did not dodge, Luo Qingyan's Radiance of the End accurately struck its target, unleashing a blinding wave of holy light.
These diffused light waves nearly obscured the entire arena, leaving those outside unable to discern the situation within.
After all, the holy power, amplified by the prayer runes, possessed considerable energy-blocking properties, making it difficult for divine senses to penetrate.
But before those outside could worry about Anfiya's fate, these light waves suddenly became conspicuous.
This was because something far larger than them materialized on the stage.
"Holy shit! That's a huge bear!"
"What is this? Is it Anfiya's summoned creature?"
"It doesn't look like it... If it's a summoned creature, why does it look like a spiritual body?"
"And if summoning were possible, Anfiya would have done it immediately."
"Then this is..."
"Holy shit! Look! Anfiya is inside the bear's head!"
"Huh? Is this another form of transformation, similar to her small bear state?"
"But it's too massive... It's like a Gundam."
"That's why it was kept as a trump card, revealed only at the last moment."
"Look at this giant bear, it's so tough!"
"And its internal energy reserves... aren't they a bit excessively abundant?"
"How can this be something a seventh-tier awakened one could achieve?"
"Uh... then let me ask you, does Lin Ran look like someone who just advanced to the sixth tier?"
"Uh... haha, never mind then."
"..."
The crowd on the viewing platform buzzed with discussion, their focus largely fixed on the colossal bear that had suddenly appeared, presumably Anfiya.
To be honest, this entirely ice-blue, translucent giant bear was indeed awe-inspiring.
Its sheer size alone provided a visual impact that dwarfed ordinary beings.
Furthermore, the surging energy flowing within the bear's body made it appear incredibly robust.
Setting aside other factors, its nonchalant resilience in withstanding the incredibly powerful light cannon was enough to attest to its terror.
Coupled with Anfiya controlling it from within the bear's head, it was akin to a Susanoo.
However, speaking of Susanoo counterparts, Luo Qingyan's abilities also bore some resemblance...
