Chapter 158: Angel Elsa, Tracy’s Imprisonment



At this moment, Tracy's face twisted in pain, her expression shifting rapidly between fear and anger.

Her aura fluctuated as well, alternating between gentle and furious-two entirely different energies.

"Who are you?" John finally realized what was happening.

He had encountered something like this before, back when the Undead Lord tried to take over his body.

However, this felt different. He could sense an aura that didn't belong to Tracy, but there was no indication of another soul being present.

Buzz!

Suddenly, Holy Light radiated from Tracy.

Her aura shifted entirely, becoming pure, haughty commanding-eerily.

It similar to that of a Two-Winged Angel, but much stronger.

"This little girl is truly weak," Tracy-or rather, the entity controlling her-spoke in a cold tone, moving her limbs as if testing the limits of her new body.

"Who are you, really?" John asked cautiously, refraining from acting rashly. The aura before him was foreign and powerful, though not yet a direct threat.

His concern was solely for Tracy.

The entity had taken control of her body, and John feared for Tracy's safety.

"You are not worthy to know!" she spat coldly, her eyes blazing with fury. "A lowly human dared to lay hands on me. Die!"

With a sharp cry, her body shimmered with Holy Light, which condensed into a silver needle that shot straight toward John's mind.

"A soul attack!" John's heart sank. He could feel the terrifying power in the silver needle, and at such close range, dodging was impossible. In desperation, he cast Soul Barrier to defend himself.

Pierce!

The barrier of Soul Energy was effortlessly pierced, and the silver needle surged forward, driving straight into his soul.

"Ugh!" John groaned in agony as a searing pain ripped through the depths of his soul. His meager Soul Technique was utterly overpowered by the assault, like a flickering candle in a storm, ready to be snuffed out at any moment.

John truly felt the cold grasp of death as his consciousness began to fade.

Buzz!

Just then, a sudden humming sound resonated in his mind. A soft blue-green light flickered, instantly dissolving the silver needle and mending the torn strands of his soul.

Cough! In the City of Angels, Elsa spat a mouthful of blood, her face pale, her spirit drained. The soul attack had backfired on her, leaving her soul badly wounded.

"Impossible!" she gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the pain from the backlash, and quickly reactivated the Divine Path of the Angels, once again taking full control of Tracy's body.

"Human, did you kill Lord Blood Fiend?" Her voice, now filled with disbelief and fear, trembled as she spoke.

The power that had just erupted from John's soul was the energy of the Jade Heart Lotus. She remembered that the Jade Heart Lotus had once been in the hands of Blood Fiend. For it to now be inside John, there was only one explanation: this human had killed Blood Fiend.

A wave of terror washed over Elsa. Blood Fiend was a demigod-level being, an existence comparable to the gods themselves. Not even Tony and Ben could have matched his strength. How could such a powerful entity have fallen?

John didn't answer her question. Instead, he said coldly, "Who are you? Get out of Tracy's body."

"Hmph, in your dreams!" she shouted, her body glowing with Holy Light as she launched another attack at John.

This time, she didn't dare attempt another soul attack. The backlash from the previous one had been too severe, and another could prove fatal.

Tracy's body was too weak, and she could only wield the strength of a peak seventh-tier being. That wasn't enough to threaten John.

However, John didn't dare strike back. Though the aura wasn't Tracy's, it was still her body she was controlling.

Since Tracy had already descended into the World of Gods, any fatal harm to her now would mean real death.

"Damn it!" John cursed inwardly, dodging her attacks and quickly retreating outside.

"What's going on, kid?" The commotion had caught Tony and the others' attention.

"Wait, Elsa?" Ben exclaimed in shock, staring at Tracy with a look of recognition, sensing a familiar aura.

Elsa, the City of Angels' ruler and a peak ninth-tier powerhouse.

She was also known as the strongest being beneath the gods.

Elsa had already comprehended the Light Power of Laws and had fused four divine treasures

of the gods.

If she could successfully reach the tenth tier, she would ascend to a demigod, and perhaps even become a lower deity.

Fortunately, she could only control Tracy's body through the Divine Path technique, limiting her power to a fraction of her true strength.

"Hmph, old fool, you still recognize me?" Elsa sneered at Ben but didn't linger on him. She continued her assault on John.

"How dare you!" Tony shouted, stepping between her and John, ready to strike.

"Wait! Stop, please!" John cried out, startled, rushing to block Tony.

Though it was Elsa controlling Tracy, it was still Tracy's body she was using.

John was terrified that any harm to her could lead to real consequences in the World of Gods.

Tony hesitated for a moment, his palm trembling slightly as a water dragon shot past Tracy, narrowly missing her.

"Haha! What's the matter? Can't bear to hurt your little lover?" Elsa mocked, her laughter filled with delight as she recklessly charged at John, emboldened by his reluctance to fight

back.

"I don't care who you are! Get out of Tracy's body!" John growled, dodging her attacks, his frustration growing as he couldn't fight back.

"Hmph, that won't happen. Today, either you die, or you kill your precious girlfriend!" she snarled, her eyes gleaming with malice. Her attacks grew more ferocious, and she even mixed in some soul attacks, determined to end John's life.

Blinding flashes of Holy Light rained down.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

John's health steadily dropped. As long as his soul remained intact, he wouldn't die, but enduring constant attacks wasn't a viable solution either.

"Can you stop her without hurting Tracy?" John pleaded with Tony and Ben.

Both of them frowned and shook their heads. Although Elsa's power was restricted to the seventh tier while controlling Tracy, they could easily kill her.

But doing so without harming Tracy's body? That was nearly impossible.

Tony hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Kid, let it go. If you want to achieve great

things, you can't get caught up in the little details-she's just a woman."

"Shut up!" John snapped, furious. He would never allow harm to come to anyone close to him.

Ben glanced at Tony, his face breaking into a smile.

In all these years, this was the first time he'd been scolded, and by a human no less.

Tony frowned, shooting a glare at Ben, displeased.

In his eyes, John was supposed to be the one to save Skyline Continent and shouldn't be held

back by emotional attachments.

Sacrificing one woman didn't matter.

He spoke again, "Kid, it's pointless. That girl has already fallen victim to the Angel Race's

Divine Path, she's become Elsa's puppet. If you can't bring yourself to do it, I'll deal with her

for you."

"Don't you dare!" John shouted, his anger flaring. If he weren't in the middle of fending off attacks, he'd have sent Tony straight into the Abyss himself.

"Hmph, foolish sentimentality!" Tony grumbled in frustration, no longer speaking, merely observing with a disdainful look.

The others felt just as helpless. They wanted to assist, but there was no way for them to

intervene.

"Big brother, I know how we can help." At that moment, Jean stepped forward, looking at John eagerly. "Bring Tracy over here."

John was puzzled, unsure what the young girl could do, but he followed her suggestion.

"Hah, you think you can use The Tree of Life against me? Keep dreaming!" Elsa, seeing through Jean's plan, refused to fall for the trap, launching ranged magical attacks instead. Not only did she target John this time, but her spells also spread to everyone else.

Sensing John's reluctance to harm Tracy's body, Elsa became even more reckless. Everyone in the Death Land-all enemies of the Angel Race-deserved to die! The group struggled to cope. Even though they could easily handle someone of Elsa's

strength.

But they were unable to act without John's order and were forced to flee in disarray.

"Flower Fairy!" Tony and Ben's eyes softened as they looked at Jean, full of affection.

Ben glanced at Tony and remarked, "Maybe it's the Beast Clan's good fortune that this human

has become the savior. He would never harm Jean."

Tony frowned deeply and replied, "But if he doesn't, how will he fully merge with the Beast

Clan's treasure?"

The very existence of the Flower Fairy was to help the savior fuse with the Beast Clan's treasures. In truth, she was always meant to be a sacrifice.

Ben, with a serious tone, asked, "If that day really comes, will you intervene?"

Tony fell silent, glaring at Ben before suddenly springing into action. Waves of water surged

from his hands, sweeping toward Tracy.

"You old bastard! What are you doing?" John yelled, startled, as he immediately threw

himself in front of Tracy.

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed through the air as John was sent flying by the water column, barely

surviving the hit.

Moments later, the torrent of water carried Tracy's body toward The Tree of Life, wrapping around her protectively and placing her beneath the tree's branches, unharmed.

"Jean, it's up to you now," Tony said, giving a sharp glare at John, who had just flown back

over.

From the day he was born, no one had ever dared to call him an old bastard to his face.

If John weren't the prophesied Chosen One, Tony wouldn't have held back.

Whoosh!

At that moment, The Tree of Life stirred. Under Jean's control, a web of vines shot out,

weaving themselves into a cage that trapped Tracy.

Blades of Holy Light slashed at the vines, but they did no damage.

The Tree of Life was a natural counter to Holy Light magic.

Seeing that she was securely bound, Elsa, through Tracy, gave up her struggle. She glared

coldly at John. "Human, I won't give up so easily. If you have the guts, keep this little girl imprisoned forever!"

With those words, the Holy Light aura around Tracy faded, and she collapsed, unconscious.

"Tracy?" The women gathered around, their faces full of concern as they looked at her

through the vine cage.

Just then, Tracy's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes, her expression dazed

for a moment before remembering everything that had just happened.

Though Elsa had controlled her body, Tracy's consciousness had remained intact, aware of

everything happening around her.

She looked at John, her voice filled with guilt. "Old man, I'm sorry. I was tricked by Elsa..."

It finally dawned on her why Elsa had taken her as a disciple and taught her the Angel Race's top-tier Divine Path technique. It had all been a setup to use her against John. Consumed by guilt, Tracy said, "Old man, I don't want to be a burden. You should just kill

me."

"Don't say such foolish things," John snapped, his anger flaring. He would never let anything happen to Tracy. "Don't worry, Tracy. We'll find a way. And if you feel lonely, we'll be here with you," Sini added quickly, trying to comfort her.
