Chapter 529: Destruction of Lorga (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Saleen had an immense amount of knowledge, but he was not considered an erudite person. He had focused all his efforts into the study of magic. For all knowledge outside of magic and combat, he had used the Memory spell to store it in his brain. He did not spend much time reviewing this knowledge.

Recently, while learning holy prose from Eleanor, Saleen had concentrated on understanding the more complicated parts of theology.

It was precisely because of this understanding that caused him to have the misconception that he was disrupting the resurrection of the goddess.

“No, the goddess wasn’t a god who required huge amounts of faith. Even if this statue became a true god, it wouldn’t be her either.” Saleen was a little dazed as the surrounding environment was continuously being altered, the ruins were expanding. A great distance away, a furious roar filled the air, and this sound was clearly transmitted to everyone’s ears.

A Supreme demon!

The Lorga Maze contained numerous spaces, and the creatures in the spaces managed to hold on to their dying breaths because of the presence of the statue. The grade-10 supreme demon was not part of this group.

A supreme demon’s life was extremely protracted. In Lorga City, he did not need to fight, and he also had not face the risk of dying young. Under the effect of the goddess’ Divine spell, even a human with no grade could enjoy the longevity of a sorcerer. Obviously, this supreme demon was not at the end of his life, he also did not need any protection from the statue.

The roars were drawing closer and closer, it was obviously directed at Saleen and company. Even though Saleen did not understand the demonic language, he could feel the extent of fury the supreme demon was experiencing.

He had destroyed Lorga City, so this supreme demon must be desperate already. If other people were in this situation, they might not have such thoughts. In the past, Saleen had obtained a book of notes penned by a supreme demon, so he understood the emotions of demon-type creatures.

Unlike purgatory creatures, a demon’s emotions were as rich as those of human. The equipment currently worn by Saleen was left behind by a supreme demon. This supreme demon had been wandering on the plane of the Myers mainland for a very long time in hopes of tracking down the traces left behind by his master.

“It is very likely that the supreme demon guarding Lorga City has a higher degree of attachment to the Goddess of Myers compared to that supreme demon who was deeply attached to humans.” Saleen felt his scalp tingle when he thought of that.

It was impossible to stage a sneak assault at this point in time. At this moment, it was no longer a test, this outraged supreme demon would kill everyone. Should Lex’s God’s Ring really be used in advance? If it was used, then everyone would have no protection in the event that they met with trouble in the main temple.

“Saleen, give me a segment of the Tree of Eternity’s branch.” Eleanor suddenly opened her mouth. Without any hesitation, Saleen took out that tree branch from the Dimension Stone, using the water flames to cut out a piece of wood as long as his arm.

The material of this Tree of Eternity’s branch was much tougher than metal, yet it was extremely lightweight. Eleanor held it in her hand, using her nails to cut her finger, then she began writing the elf language on the wood with her blood.

Scarlet words seeped into the wood. Judging by Eleanor’s writing speed, Saleen felt that she would die from excessive bleeding. The voice of the supreme demon was drawing closer. If the peripheral space was completely broken, the supreme demon could make his way there in less than three seconds given his powers.

Even though Ismail was bewildered as to why Lex did not use her godly equipment to kill the supreme demon, he did not say anything. He decided to observe the capabilities of Saleen’s subordinates first, so that he could have a sense of how to handle matters in the future. “If they are very weak, I will kill them off one by one, and those stitched monsters and evil knights that I have collected can help Saleen in battles.”

As a purgatory walker, Ismail was not very sure of his judgment, “The people around Saleen could hardly be deciphered. Especially that woman called Nailisi, she could actually cast a shapeshifting skill on me against my will.” Ismail did not even want his current appearance, it was forced upon him by Nailisi.

In just a span of a dozen seconds, Eleanor had finished writing. She passed the wood to Saleen, then said, “Make it into the shape of a feather arrow.”

The water flame on Saleen’s palm only brushed over the wood gently, and the wood had been processed into the shape of a feather arrow, just that its tail was an emerald-green leaf.

This piece of alchemical weapon was extremely crude. In the instant when it took shape, Saleen could feel the power of life growing out of this wooden arrow, it was like a living thing, with natural cycles taking place in it.

Eleanor glanced at Nailisi coldly, then said, “Don’t you want to learn archery? What you have seen today is called Life Archery, remembered it.”

When Eleanor was writing the elf language, Nailisi never took her eyes off it even once. She had remembered everything. When Eleanor posed that question, she simply nodded in response. Eleanor continued, “Due to time constraints, I only used ten years of my life in this arrow, it can definitely stop that supreme demon for an instant. Saleen, are you confident of killing him?”

Saleen nodded his head, feeling pained. Even though Eleanor was an elf who had a long life, it still made Saleen extremely sad that such a skill had immediately depleted ten years of her lifespan.

“An expert might have the ability to overcome the Arrow of Space, but the Life Arrow…” Eleanor looked pensive. She picked up the short bow, loading the newly crafted Life Arrow, then hollered, “Go!”

The green arrow flew out, trailed by its own blurry shadow. In front of the Life Arrow, the shadow of the supreme demon had emerged less than one-hundred yards away. This supreme demon was about three yards in height, but his silver scaled armor was draped over his body just like how humans wore armor. Only demons above grade-9 could fade their inborn keratin naturally to create the mightiest demonic armor ever. The weapon in the supreme demon’s hand was a colossal meteor hammer. Rushing out with his shadow, his roars exploded into powerful soundwaves.

When the Life Arrow appeared in front of him, the supreme demon extended his hand to catch it. With a thud, the Life Arrow penetrated his arm.

The supreme demon was waving the meteor hammer about, he never expected himself to be injured by an arrow. The supreme demon became paralyzed in that position in that instant. The meteor hammer in his hand had already locked onto Saleen, and was flying over.

The meteor hammer had a diameter of about half a yard, the thorns atop were made from a type of translucent crystalline material. Connected behind the hammerhead was a shadow. The end of the hammer was still in the supreme demon’s hand, and the head of the hammer was assaulting Saleen across a distance of one-hundred yards. Saleen could barely move his limbs. He felt that the thing flying towards him was not a meteor hammer, but a mountain.

“If this meteor hammer hits me, I will definitely wind up like I just got crushed by a mountain.”

After experiencing so many life and death situations, Saleen finally displayed an extraordinary side of himself. Under the condition of being locked on by the supreme demon’s mental strength, Saleen still managed to take out his clan badge. A blue electric current flashed in his hand, as the power within the badge had been stimulated.

The only person not oppressed by the supreme demon’s mental pressure was Sika. Even Bain was startled. Sika had already wielded her cudgel, sweeping it towards the meteor hammer.

Boom! Boom!

Bain’s reaction was slightly slower, but he was faster than Sika. Both of them sprang into action one after another, flying into the air at the same time.

The moment Sika’s cudgel came into contact with the meteor hammer, her legs had left the ground. There was no other choice. Had she forcefully tapped into the power of the earth, her body would be smashed into pulp. Only by flying up would the impact from the meteor hammer be lessened. On the other hand, Bain had mysteriously appeared behind the supreme demon. After stabbing him once, Bain was flung into the air by the supreme demon’s tail.

Consecutively, the two people flew at least one-hundred yards away.

Saleen’s long black hair was agitated by the wind. At this point in time, Nailisi leaped into the air, jumping over the meteor hammer. Wielding the Dragon’s Tooth Dagger, she slashed at the shadow behind the hammer head once, then she also got flung away.

In such a brief period of time, Saleen had done another three things. He released a Water Shield and a fully constructed puppet. Lastly, he had opened a scroll.

The supreme demon was nailed to the ground, but his mental strength was still controlling the meteor hammer. Lex and her subordinate mages released defensive spells desperately. The Crystal Guardians, Stonewall Spells, and Earth Totems were all obliterated by the meteor hammer.

Saleen did not even move his legs, he totally ignored the approaching meteor hammer. He knew that this was an attack which had been locked in by the supreme demon’s mental strength, so there was no way to avoid it given his own speed. Saleen raised the badge towards the supreme demon. A bolt of dark blue lightning, accompanied by deafening thunder flew towards the supreme demon’s chest.

This lightning was the energy Saleen had amassed for almost a year. It was much smaller than the previous release, and the color was also purer. It was impossible for the supreme demon, who had been locked on by the Life Arrow, to outrun the speed of lightning. The Life Arrow had caused the supreme demon to be paralyzed for more than half a second. By the time Saleen’s lightning was released, the supreme demon was also struck in the chest by the lightning at the same time.

A plume of green smoke appeared. The supreme demon was split in half by the lightning. Everything in the path of the lightning was turned into ash.

Ismail was dumbfounded that his master actually possessed such a mighty weapon, it had already exceeded his imagination. A devil would not even be able to resist this attack, not to mention a grade-10 supreme demon.

“No wonder Master is on equal standing as that woman with the godly equipment. Unless there is a special restraining skill, anyone who got hit by an attack of such magnitude would only end up dead.”

Ismail’s observation was more thorough than anyone else. In the instant when the lightning came into contact with the supreme demon, an immeasurably high temperature was attained. By then, the sturdy body of that supreme demon was no different from a paper person, it got torn apart immediately.

A bubble suddenly appeared on the supreme demon’s meteor hammer. Saleen actually blessed the meteor hammer with defensive magic. Following that, the tall fully constructed puppet lunged at it, and it got smashed into a metal pancake. The last thing to take effect was Saleen’s scroll. All of a sudden, an enormous three-sided ice tower emerged from the ground, blocking the meteor hammer’s path.

The meteor hammer had already slowed down. When the ice tower appeared, the hammer seemed to have lost its target, flying towards the left of Saleen.

Saleen had used a spell he was unfamiliar with; Prism Refraction, to disrupt the supreme demon’s mental aim. The supreme demon was already dead, so his original aim had shifted due to the effect of the Prism Refraction. If the supreme demon was still alive, it would not have been affected by a level-5 spell. Saleen dared to take such a risk because he was sure that he could kill the supreme demon in a second.

If the supreme demon did not die just now, Saleen would be the one who was dead.

Saleen’s body swayed. Ismail wanted to support him, but Cuisi extended his hand to block Ismail. He said icily, “You are a follower. Next time, remember not to hide when there’s danger.”

“Ker… Saleen, are you okay?” In the ruins one-hundred yards behind, Sika climbed out. Her pupils were slightly red, but she did not sustain any serious injuries.

Ismail’s pupils shrank, he took a step back and did not argue with Cuisi. He had realized that everyone around Saleen were very powerful. Even if he was still in possession of grade-9 power, he could hardly deal with them if he did not deploy his subordinates.
