Chapter 538 - Everyone Successfully Subdued the Enemy

Chapter 538: Everyone Successfully Subdued the Enemy

The situation on the battlefield changed instantly when Alexia joined the battle.

At that moment, Justin had tied Benson up tightly using the law chains whilst Hades was watching them from the side.

Alexia was aware of the weakness of the Black Magic Arcana. She was looking at Vincent who was accumulating power in the sky.

In just a short period of time, they were on par with Benson, who had the strength of a level 80 creature.

At that moment, there was only confusion and fear in Benson’s eyes. Vincent, Justin, and Hades were nothing to Benson.

However, Alexia’s sudden attack made Benson feel fear for the first time.

This was because Alexia was the daughter of Gajero. Gajero was the best at defeating the Black Magic Arcana the most!

He thought back to the time when High Priest Augustus had mastered Black Magic Arcana. He had powerful black magic spells and a perfect arcana body. However, he was still crushed by Gajero. He could not fight back at all, and his heart was even removed from his body.

The tragic and powerless scene was still in Benson’s mind. It had become a nightmare that he could not get rid of even after all these years.

Every time Benson followed the soldiers of the 1st Corps to see Gajero, his hands and body would tremble unconsciously. However, he could only endure it. He did not dare to show any signs of it, because he was afraid that he would attract Gajero’s attention and arouse his suspicion.

Benson hated the feeling of being fearful from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to resist and leave Gajero’s shadow!

However, the Black Magic Arcana that Benson had learned was not complete. He did not have time to learn the most powerful part of the Black Magic Arcana. This was because Augustus and all the other demon priests were massacred and purged by Gajero. This resulted in his inheritance being incomplete. His body of arcana also had obvious weaknesses.

The spot where Alexia pierced through was one of his weaknesses.

Therefore, Benson knew that if he did not complete the Black Magic Arcana, he would not be able to get rid of Gajero, change his life, and explore the Black Holes alone.

Fortunately, the 1st Corps had accepted Gajero’s order to hunt down Vincent and find the whereabouts of the heart of Augustus. As long as he could find the heart that contained Augustus’s life-long power, he could complete his own Black Magic Arcana spell. At the same time, he could also greatly improve his own strength!

“No one can stop me today. All of you will die!” shouted Benson.

Benson, who felt deeply trapped, suddenly burst out with a strong desire to live. He sent everything around him flying, including Justin, who was desperately trying to lock him down, and Hades, who was ready to raise his sword again to slash at him.

Alexia’s light sword left her hand and she flew backward. Her whole body was like a strand of fallen leaves swaying in the wind.

Vincent, who was in mid-air, finally charged up. His entire body was bathed in divine light, and the divine spark between his brows was bright and dazzling. He looked like a true God who had descended from the sky.

Benson, who was struggling to break free from the restraints, could not help but be frightened once again. This was because he could feel the power from Vincent’s body surpassing his.

Vincent said, “I have to admit that it was a little too much when we took the initiative to pull a level 80 creature into the space tunnel. However, I will not let go of this opportunity. Even if I have to give up the last bit of my strength, I must kill you here today!”

Vincent had transformed into the Fire God Avatar. He let out a loud roar at Benson before slashing toward the ground.

“Heaven and Earth Destruction!” shouted Vincent.

Vincent exerted all his strength to execute the eight forms of Heaven’s Will. In addition to that, he had also activated his own divinity and divine flame. He had fused his understanding of the blade techniques and flames into one, forming a brand-new skill.

Vincent felt like his flames could burn the heavens and refine the earth. The power of his blade techniques far surpassed the eight forms of Heaven’s Will. In fact, it had reached a whole new level.

After sensing his own improvement and integration, four words suddenly appeared in Vincent’s mind – Eight Burning Sky Styles!

Vincent could use the flames to enhance the new skill. He could use the fire law to hold the blade and use flame authority to cast the blade. He could then use the flames and the divine light that had been tempered thousands of times as the blade. It would then become a blade that could destroy everything.

Benson had finally managed to repel all the obstacles around him. However, he did not expect such a terrifying attack to fall from the sky. He had no time to dodge and could only rely on his arcana body to withstand the blade in Vincent’s hand.

“Boom!”

The flaming long blade struck the ground. In an instant, it exploded into countless fire snakes that flew up and down in the Purgatory of Nature. The flame divine light that contained Vincent’s will filled the sky like fluorescent light and scattered in every corner of the Purgatory of Nature.

The Purgatory of Nature was like a sea of flames. Whether it was the red earth, the high mountains, or the flowing magma river, all of them were ignited with flames. Even Hades, who was sent flying to the side, suddenly burst into flames. He looked like another Fire God Avatar.

As the divine flames slowly rose, they formed ten suns in the empty sky. The temperature was so high, it felt like everything was burning. The ten suns illuminated the world below.

Vincent suddenly felt the Return Journey of the Dead in his hand begin to shake violently. It seemed to be bearing a weight that exceeded what he could bear, and his blade also seemed to be completing the upgrade in pain.

Just as Vincent was about to close the Purgatory of Nature, a mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

“Congratulations to the host for successfully binding the Purgatory of Nature. This skill has been removed from the Return Journey of the Dead and added to the host’s skill!”

Vincent was both surprised and enlightened as he listened to the voices that kept echoing in his ears. He gradually understood what had happened.

As the divine flame that carried Vincent’s own divinity scattered in the Purgatory of Nature, it gradually fused with the space. It was equivalent to binding Vincent’s will to the space firmly.

As long as Vincent willed it, he could use the divine flame to dominate everything in the Purgatory of Nature. This way, he would be able to open the Purgatory of Nature without using the Return Journey of the Dead!

Moreover, everything in the Purgatory of Nature had fused with the divine flame. Everything, including Hades, could be changed according to Vincent’s will. Due to the characteristics of the divine flame, everything in the Purgatory of Nature had been imbued with the characteristics of the flame and Vincent himself. It had turned this place into a space that belonged solely to Vincent.

Vincent felt a little strange at that moment. It was as if there was a bottleneck that he could neither see nor touch. It had been opened silently. Vincent was unable to describe the vague feeling.

Suddenly, the flames on the ground extinguished. Benson was still holding his staff whilst standing still on the ground. However, his robe had been completely torn from his left shoulder to his right waist. He had a scarlet cut across his body. Even though he had a demon body that could quickly recover, the cut could not be healed.

This was because there were still countless divine flames burning repeatedly in the cut, preventing the wound from recovering!

Benson raised his head to look at Vincent. His eyes were filled with fear as he spoke with a serious expression, “I didn’t expect you to actually grasp the power of a domain. Even the powerful recovery ability of a demon’s body can be restricted. It seems that your talent is far more terrifying than I imagined. No matter what, I cannot let you live today!”

Vincent could not help but smile. This was because Benson’s words had finally allowed him to understand everything.

It turned out that the Purgatory of Nature had already become his domain, and within the domain, he was the absolute supreme king. He had the ability to modify all the rules within the domain, including the demon’s own talent.

Following that, Vincent tried to lock his gaze on Benson’s body, focusing on Benson’s skin. He seemed to be able to see through his flesh and blood. He could faintly see balls of demonic aura circulating within Benson’s body. He also saw a pitch-black vertical object in Benson’s left eye!

Vincent looked down at Benson as he sneered, “As expected, in my domain, I am the absolute master. I can obtain everything I want, including the position of the demon core in your body!”

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Benson’s forehead when he heard what Vincent had said. However, he still forced himself to remain calm. He did not dare to show the slightest bit of cowardice in front of Vincent.

At the same time, Justin and Alexia, who had been sent flying, rushed back and surrounded Benson. Their eyes were filled with determination to fight.

Justin’s blood was boiling at that moment. He raised his head and shouted at Vincent, “There’s no need to talk so much nonsense with him. Since this is your territory, then use your advantage to trap him. We will weaken his strength bit by bit, and we will be able to kill him sooner or later!”

His eyes were filled with madness.

Vincent nodded and agreed to Justin’s suggestion. However, he did not attack first. Instead, he used his mind to control Hades, who had fallen far away to quickly run back.

Hades’s dark red armor was covered with flowing flames. He charged at Benson with even more terrifying momentum.

Vincent had gained a clearer understanding of the Purgatory of Nature, including Hades’s true strength.

It turned out that Hades’s level was constantly rising along with Vincent’s level. He was currently a level 50 creature. However, because he lived in the Purgatory of Nature, he had an absolute home-field advantage. Therefore, he could unleash the combat strength of a level 60 creature at the most.

Although he still had no chance of winning against Benson, with the help of the divine flame and Vincent, Hades was like an immortal in the Purgatory of Nature. Even if he died, he could be resurrected at any time.

Therefore, Vincent specially controlled Hades to challenge Benson with a reckless attitude.

When Alexia saw the scene, she took the initiative to swing her sword forward and attack Benson’s weak spot.

She was the princess of the Demon Race, the daughter of Gajero. In her eyes, everything from the Demon Race was her father’s as well as hers. No matter who dared to betray or covet the treasures of the Demon Race, they would be regarded as enemies. She would not rest until one of them died.

Therefore, even if she had to borrow Vincent’s power to get rid of Benson, she had to do it to get rid of that traitor!

Vincent looked at Alexia who had suddenly attacked and did not stop her. Instead, he reminded her loudly, “Pay attention! His demon core is in his left eye!”

On the other side, after learning of Benson’s weakness, Justin raised both of his hands and once again threw out his law chains, directly wrapping around Benson’s head.

After facing the pincer attack from three sides once again, Benson no longer had the arrogance that he had before. Instead, he became timid. This was because his own weakness had been exposed by Vincent with a single sentence. This was because although the opponent he faced was weak, they were getting stronger at an incredible speed. This made him less and less confident in himself, and he wanted to avoid the battle in front of him as much as possible.

He had to face the powerful attack of Hades, the tricky attack from Alexia, and the attack from Justin, whose strength could not be underestimated. They all wanted to destroy his demon core. Benson gradually fell into a defensive stance, and he became more and more passive.

He could barely maintain a defense. In the end, he seemed to be inferior. Under the pincer attack of the three, he revealed countless flaws!

Justin suddenly found a flaw in Benson’s attacks and shouted, “Now!”

He roared and quickly controlled the law chain to bind Benson’s hands and feet again. At the same time, he used the thickest blood-red chain to stab directly at Benson’s left eye.

At the same time, Hades took advantage of the opportunity. He picked up his giant sword and spun it in the air. He slashed at Benson’s head with great power. It was as if he wanted to cut Benson in half.

Alexia also took the opportunity to tap the ground with the tip of her foot. Her graceful figure instantly turned into countless afterimages in the air, stabbing at the weakest part of Benson’s body from different directions.

“Black Magic Arcana spell, Fate Barrier!” shouted Benson.

Benson had long forgotten that he was a level 80 expert. As long as he fought with all his might, he would definitely be able to defeat them. However, at that moment, he had completely lost his footing. He could only choose to defend in his panic.

A pitch-black circular barrier was released from the staff in Benson’s hand. It firmly wrapped around his entire body, blocking attacks from all directions.

Benson was only thinking about how to survive, escape from the space, and how to guard against Vincent, who had yet to make a move.

In Benson’s opinion, Vincent, who had never made a move, must be waiting for the most critical moment to launch a fatal blow at him. Therefore, he would rather reveal some flaws to Justin and the others but he would never reveal his fatal weakness to Vincent. This way, it would help him to stall time effectively until he thought of a way to escape.

However, Vincent, who was in the sky, had no intention of making a move at all. Instead, he was anxiously waiting for a suitable opportunity.

When he saw Benson defending and had no intention of fighting back, Vincent knew that his chance had come. Benson had too many worries in his heart that he had completely forgotten what he should be wary of!

Vincent stretched out his left hand and waved it gently. The Cosmic Threads on the ground instantly appeared in front of him.

Previously, Benson was able to use the Black Magic Arcana spell to block the Cosmic Threads because his attention was entirely on Vincent. He could sense the existence of the Cosmic Threads in advance.

However, at that moment, Benson had long forgotten about the Cosmic Threads. He could no longer make any effective precautions!

“Go!”

Vincent grabbed onto the Cosmic Threads. He released hundreds of threads at the same time. They shot straight into the sky and silently fell toward Benson.

As Vincent was in complete control of the Purgatory of Nature, the Cosmic Threads that he used were extremely silent. They did not emit any sound or light. They were like a ghostly shadow that had completely fused into the space.

Benson, who was trying his best to resist, suddenly felt his body sink. It was as if there were lead pendants tied to his body, causing his limbs to gradually stiffen. He was like a puppet being controlled by someone.

“Not good, I actually forgot…”

Benson widened his eyes and let out a cry in his heart. However, his thoughts soon came to an abrupt halt. He stood in place with a dull expression, as if he had lost his soul.

The black barrier protecting Benson instantly collapsed, allowing the attacks from the surroundings to come at him like a storm.

Justin instantly noticed the abnormality on Benson’s body. He quickly controlled his law chains to change direction, blocking Hades’s blade and Alexia’s ghostly attack.

“Everyone stop! Vincent has succeeded!” shouted Justin as he stopped his attack.

Hades obediently put away his giant sword and stood quietly by the side.

However, Alexia did not stop. Although she wanted to kill Benson, she also did not want Vincent to have a chance to obtain the black magic of the demons. So, in order to protect the demons, she had to do whatever it took completely.

Vincent had successfully controlled Benson through the hundreds of Cosmic Threads. He issued hundreds of orders to his subconscious, completely cleansing his mind and will. He had transformed him into a puppet under his control.

Just when Alexia’s sword was about to stab Benson, Benson, who was like a statue, suddenly moved. He spun his staff in front of him and slammed it on the ground below his feet heavily.

“Black Magic Arcana spell, Retreat!”

As Benson roared, his entire body instantly turned into a pitch-black ball of light. The pitch-black death light dispersed in the shape of a disc, pushing away all of Alexia’s afterimages around him.

Alexia, who was hiding in the afterimages, was also struck in the chest by the death light. She raised her head and spat out a large mouthful of blood. She flew backward weakly.

Vincent ignored Alexia, who had fallen heavily to the ground. He flew in front of Justin and dispelled his fire spiritualization state. He smiled proudly and said, “Now, we have another powerful fighter!”
