Genshin Impact: Kurumi is shocked, the God of Light is right beside her.

Chapter 389 Shadow Attack, Trial Crisis

"Apep, what a brave and fearless warrior. Ruoduo, what a powerful figure who can stand alone, and so many more dragon descendants who continue to thrive. Everyone's eyes are filled with longing for a bright future, but you, you numb yourself with self-destructive words and pin your hopes on others. You are unworthy of being the Dragon King. Since you think my existence is unnecessary, then... disappear!"

With a loud shout, Nibelungen forcibly severed the emotional entity in his mind.

After a brief period of numbness, the Trial Grounds of Cold suddenly shattered, gently delivering Nibelungen.

The damage suffered by Nibelungen was all like a false dream.

Feeling the return of some of the power within his body, Nibelungen blinked as if in a dream, never expecting that his resolute attitude would be a crucial step in passing the trial.

After briefly experiencing the power, Nibelungen became convinced that it was not an illusion.

Immediately, it tore through space with one claw and leaped directly to the arid land—the desolate, barren desert.

As soon as it landed, the swirling sandstorm blinded it. Just as it raised its hand to disperse the sand, a shadow suddenly appeared behind it.

Sensing the hostility behind him, Nibelungen turned around without hesitation and threw a punch. A burst of light instantly created a sonic boom in the air, causing the sand dune to drop several meters.

However, the shadow remained unharmed and was still behind Nibelungen.

"This is...my shadow?"

Just as Nibelungen was momentarily stunned, the shadow suddenly launched an attack, striking its back with a palm.

However, the shadow seemed to be an integral part of Nibelungen, and even though Nibelungen immediately dodged several meters away, he was still struck by the palm.

With a muffled groan, Nibelungen staggered and lost his balance, while the shadow pressed its advantage, conjuring a black scythe that aimed straight for Nibelungen's neck.

Feeling the oppressive force that struck his very soul, Nibelungen no longer underestimated his opponent and immediately conjured numerous clones.

When a shadow strikes down a Nibelungen, it will reappear behind another Nibelungen.

With one less clone on the field, Nibelungen will continue to release new clones while observing the opportunity to attack the shadow.

However, the shadow seemed to have seen through its thoughts and directly countered its moves. Whenever another clone approached the clone possessed by the shadow, the shadow would decisively swing its scythe and then change to the back of another clone.

As time passed, Nibelungen's spirit and energy were rapidly depleted, but the speed of his shadow attacks increased.

Soon, all the clones on the field dissipated; the speed at which Nibelungen created clones could no longer keep up with the speed at which the clones shattered.

Just as Nibelungen was about to suffer a fatal blow, Asmodeus, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly appeared and forcefully ripped the shadow off Nibelungen's back.

After understanding Asmodeus's actions, Nibelungen seized the opportunity, pulled the shadow over from a distance, and then punched it squarely in the chin.

With a whoosh, the shadow vanished completely, leaving only a pile of black residue on the ground.

However, just as Nibelungen breathed a sigh of relief, a bundle of light hoops strangled its neck, making it impossible for it to breathe. Its veins bulged and its eyes were bloodshot.

Just seconds later, Nibelungen collapsed to the ground, continuing to be dragged backward by the light circle.
