Chapter 771 - Blooming Of The Fiery Ice Lotus
The wave of Sword Intent immediately cleaved apart the 300-odd Greater Demons of the Mid-rank and below, separating them into two parts while killing a dozen Low-rank to Mid-rank Greater Demons in the process.
"A Tier-7 Divine Weapon!"
The Mid-rank Greater Demons exclaimed loudly with startling surprises and realization the moment Aria revealed the Tier-7 Divine Sword's natural divine aura.
"What? A Tier-7 Divine Sword?" a Peak-rank Greater Demon uttered, distracted by the distant exclamations as it turned its heard to look.
However, the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman took that opportunity to cut down the Peak-rank Greater Demon and takes its Tier-6 Black Rod for himself.
Although unfortunate, the Peak-rank Greater Demon was not the only one distracted by the outcry; everyone was distracted as they revealed greedy glints in their eyes.
Even the Arch Demons further away was distracted by the commotion.
'A Tier-7 Divine Sword!' Teshafir and Kaligan's eyes glowed with greed.
In the Eternal Night Secret Realm, Tier-5 Artifacts were the most common among the inheritance, followed by Tier-6 Artifacts, which weren't exactly common but not rare either.
However, Tier-7 Divine Artifacts were so rare that practically not a single demon owned them.
Leon frowned at the Arch Demons' reaction to the Tier-7 Divine Sword before he took the initiative to attack them.
Final Spear - Spear Piercing the Heavens!
Another one of Leon's Tier-3 Bone Spears was hurled at Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon, whom he deemed to be the easier target of the two Arch Demons as it was unarmed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon quickly evaded the Tier-3 Bone Spear, no longer daring enough to face Leon's attack head-on again.
"Hmph! We'll deal with you later!" Teshafir snorted.
Shortly after, Teshafir and Kaligan shot in Aria's direction, intent to wrestle the Tier-7 Divine Sword from her for their own use.
"Come back here! I am your opponent!" Leon bellowed.
He already suspected the Arch Demons' intention on Aria's Tier-7 Divine Sword and immediately gave chase, quickly catching up to the Arch Demons and attacking them from behind.
However, the Arch Demons were also prepared for his attacks and suddenly turned around to receive them.
Ding!
Leon's Tier-6 Halberd made slight contact with the Evil Eye Arch Demon's Tier-6 Rapier before getting flung back by a strong force, almost making Leon lose grip of his weapon.
"Kekeke, it seems like you care a lot about that lass," the Evil Eye Arch Demon chuckled coldly.
Shortly after, it said to the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon, "Why don't you keep this traitorous noble demon busy while I go and take the Tier-7 Divine Weapon, Lord Teshafir? It's not like you have any arms to use it anyway."
"Hmph! Even I can't use it as well as others, can't I add it to my collection? In any case, I'm not letting you have it, Lord Kaligan!" Teshafir replied spitefully.
The Tier-7 Divine Weapon was too valuable for the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon to let it fall in the Evil Eye Clan's possession; it would give them too much power on top of what they already have.
Nevertheless, Kaligan was incensed by the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon's response.
"Now is not the time to bicker over ownership! We need the Tier-7 Divine Weapon to slay this traitorous noble demon!" Kaligan bellowed angrily before growling at Leon's incoming spear, "Grrr, piss off!"
Final Spear - Spear Piercing the Heavens!
Kaligan deflected the jet-black Tier-3 Bone Spear with his Tier-6 Rapier, causing another chip to appear in it.
"Is this the only move you know or something, you bastard—?!" Kaligan roared furiously at his weapon's damage.
Blooming of the Fiery Ice Lotus!
The Evil Eye Arch Demon's words were cut short as Leon followed up with another attack, tossing an illusory-looking blue lotus, a product of fusing the Ice Law and Fire Law, at the Arch Demon.
Gravity!
Leon further pressured both Arch Demons with increased gravity to receive the illusory-looking blue lotus.
"Insignificant tricks!" Kaligan roared as he hacked at the illusory-looking blue lotus with his damaged Tier-6 Rapier.
However, the moment the seemingly gentle and harmless blue lotus split in half, it erupted with terrifying cold and fiery energy, engulfing both Arch Demons in an instance!
"Arghhh!" they cried in pain.
Their shadows quickly shot out of the burning cold region before patting and rolling to smother the blue flames on their bodies.
"What kind of accursed ability is this?! Is this fire or ice?! Which is it?" Teshafir bellowed painfully but failed to snuff out the blue flames immediately.
"Use your dark power to put it out!"
Teshafir listened to Kaligan's quick instruction before overwhelming the blue flame with raw power and snuffing it out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt the same time, the affected region continued to burn and freeze intermittently without any signs of ending any time soon.
"What a fearsome ability!" Kaligan stated.
Although no burns or wounds were left on their bodies, the pain they experienced was akin to burning in purgatory.
While they were preoccupied with the burning cold patch of land and trees, the Evil Eye Arch Demon suddenly received a cold yet burning pain on his back.
A stray wave of Sword Intent had struck it, leaving a long but shallow wound.
"Arghhh!" Kaligan growled in pain, nonetheless.
Shortly after, he turned his venomous gaze on Aria in the distance before roaring, "Damn you, human! I'll kill you first!"
Boom!
The Evil Eye Arch Demon shot towards Aria with explosive speed, still intent on snatching the Tier-7 Divine Weapon from her, and Leon immediately shot after.
"Where are you going now?!"
The Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon obstructed Leon's path, causing his eyes to cloud with gloominess and solemnity.
Aria had yet to train in body cultivation; she would not be able to endure the slightest attack from the Evil Eye Arch Demon.
"Repeatedly going after my woman, you're asking to die…!" Leon spat.
Rumble!
Powerful waves of Nihility gushed out of Leon's body, causing his immediate surrounding to shake and distort as tears formed in space.
World stability was important, but the safety of his loved ones was even more important!
