Chapter 143: Chapter 143: The Chance to Slay the Winged Demon King!
Thinking of this, Aster Grant’s heart tightened.
This battle must be fought with full force!
"Soul-devouring: Initiate!"
Scarlet spiritual power suddenly exploded, enveloping Veridia, Lazuli, and Vera completely.
Their auras instantly surged to peak status!
"Vera, those Commander Level demons on the ground are yours!"
Vera nodded, her figure diving like an arrow.
The ground was filled with Commander Level demons who lacked the ability to stay airborne.
Against Vera’s skyrocketing attributes—
They should pose no threat!
As for this Half-step Monarch Level Winged Demon King before them...
Veridia and Lazuli must give their all to have a chance at victory!
"Veridia, Lazuli!"
Before Aster Grant’s voice finished, two figures had already activated their ultimate forms—
"Ghost King’s Body: Initiate!"
"End Angel Form: Initiate!"
Two low shouts burst simultaneously, and in the center of the battlefield, two terrifying pressures erupted, starkly distinct.
This was their first battle after reaching Commander Level!
Veridia was instantly entangled by Netherghast Aura, lively ghost patterns covering her body entirely.
On the other side, Lazuli’s twelve wings unfolded completely, Ultimate Fire enveloping her form.
With Aster Grant’s "Soul-devouring" talent blessing them, their attributes began to soar wildly!
[Ghost Race (Veridia)]
[Level: Commander Tier One]
[Talent: Myth Five Stars]
[Power: 9000→27000]
[Constitution: 8000→24000]
[Spiritual: 7000→21000]
[Speed: 8000→24000]
[Skills: Ghost Race Four Techniques, Ghost King’s Body, Returning Ruins, Ghost King Domain]
[Special State: Twin Resonance!]
...
[Divine Angel (Lazuli)]
[Talent: Myth Five Stars]
[Level: Commander Tier One]
[Power: 9000→54000]
[Constitution: 9000→54000]
[Spiritual: 9000→54000]
[Speed: 9000→54000]
[Skills: Blazing Angel Form, Doomsday Angel Form, Blazing Burn, Celestial Fire Domain]
[Special State: Oath Guardian]
But when Aster Grant saw Lazuli’s attribute panel, he couldn’t help but inhale sharply—
All attributes at 54,000 points?!
Stronger than the Half-step Monarch Level demon clan?!
This number is simply monstrous!
Yet Aster Grant quickly cooled down.
Such attributes can’t guarantee victory in this battle.
Demon King Level demons can also temporarily boost attributes via demonic qi...
So, one must remain vigilant!
Aster Grant turned his gaze to Veridia...
Strength attribute is 27,000 points...
If she were to use the Ghost Race Third Technique "Heaven-Breaking," at three times boost—
81,000 points!!
?!?
Nearing 100,000 strength attribute points at Commander Tier One?!
Only now had he realized after calculating...
How monstrous Veridia’s strength attribute had become!
But Veridia’s other attributes were relatively weak, her real battle power couldn’t be measured just by strength.
Regardless of how monstrous the explosive power is, if she can’t land a hit...
It’s all for naught!
At this moment, the Winged Demon King felt two auras no weaker than its own and finally discarded its arrogant attitude.
A trace of dread flickered in its scarlet compound eyes—
Commander Tier One possessing Half-step Monarch’s battle power...
If allowed to grow, such a human would surely become a Totem Level powerhouse!
Even more terrifying, this human has bonded with a Divine Pattern!
Killing intent surged to its peak!
This human cannot be allowed to live!
Would certainly become a formidable enemy to the demon clan in the future!!
Realizing this, the demon king made a decision almost instantly.
Without hesitation, it crushed the precious Demon Stone in its possession, and surging demonic qi enveloped it completely.
"Demon King’s Body!"
With a roar, its attributes began to climb wildly!
For the demon king, Demon King’s Body is an essential skill.
Capable of temporarily boosting one’s attributes through demonic qi.
Upon seeing this, Aster Grant’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Although his domain could prohibit these demons from using their domains, turning it into pure attribute confrontation!
However...
He’s not the only one with methods to boost temporarily.
The demons possess such methods as well!
[Power: 55000→75000]
[Constitution: 53000→73000]
[Spiritual: 41000→61000]
[Speed: 57000→79000]
Aster Grant stared at the Winged Demon King’s rapidly increasing attribute panel, his brain working rapidly—
Lazuli’s current attribute gap is too wide...
There’s no chance of winning in a direct confrontation!
While contemplating, his gaze suddenly fixed on a line of small text in Veridia’s status bar:
[Special State: Twin Resonance (Contracted Twins mutually share talents!)]
If Veridia could use Scarlett’s Void Travel...
Coordinated with 81,000 points of explosive power...
A bold plan began to form in his mind.
But before that, someone needs to hold off this demon king tightly!
And this task....
"Lazuli!"
Aster Grant has no choice but to entrust this daunting task to Lazuli.
Yet with Lazuli’s attributes at around 50,000 points, trying to hold off a Winged Demon King with average 70,000 points attributes...
This presents a formidable challenge for her.
But Lazuli’s gaze showed no wavering.
Through the spiritual contract, she fully sensed Aster Grant’s plan.
Faced with an almost impossible task, she didn’t retreat even slightly, but her fighting spirit surged instead!
"Master, I can do it!"
Her voice firm and calm, as if simply stating a mere fact.
Aster Grant looked deeply at her and finally nodded.
The next moment—
Lazuli’s figure suddenly transformed into a brilliant streak of light, charging directly at the Winged Demon King!
The Winged Demon King noticed, its lips curling into a mocking arc.
Though this beastbond’s aura wasn’t weak, compared to it... still far from enough!
Its pitch-black bone wings suddenly shook, demonic qi surged, charging recklessly toward Lazuli as well!
And at the very moment both sides collided—
No one noticed a dark figure silently disappeared from its spot, seamlessly merging into The Void.
Bang—!!!
Lazuli collided fiercely with the Winged Demon King, a terrifying energy shockwave sweeping out!
However, merely a moment later, Lazuli’s figure uncontrollably flew backward, clearly still outmatched in pure power confrontation against this Half-step Monarch Level demon clan!
The Winged Demon King sneered coldly, its eyes full of contempt.
"If your master had been a bit smarter, hiding with you until reaching Commander Tier Five, perhaps I wouldn’t be your match."
"But now?"
"You are destined to die here!"
It attacked wildly, while constantly using words to assault Lazuli’s psychological defenses, attempting to break her fighting spirit.
However, around Lazuli, the Ultimate Fire blazed intensely!
Demonic qi touching this fierce flame was instantly incinerated to nothingness, emitting harsh "sizzle" sounds.
Relying on this all-consuming flame, Lazuli could use her 50,000 spiritual attributes, forcibly holding off this Winged Demon King triumphed over her in attributes!
Yet this resistance, after all, cannot last long!
In the repeated combat, Lazuli had clearly fallen behind.
Each time exerting full effort to barely withstand the demon king’s attacks.
But seeing this, Aster Grant had no intention of intervening.
If he boosted Lazuli with several Sovereign statuses, she could contend evenly with this Winged Demon King.
Yet he had no plans to do so.
The current status is exactly the effect he wants to achieve.
This demon clan would only utterly lower its guard when close to victory.
Veridia then will have the chance to succeed!
