Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 599 Chapter572-The Tenacious Demon Corruptor

He aimed to first dodge the attacks from the two demon generals.

These generals wielded massive war hammers, weapons known to inflict severe damage on players.

Despite being a top-tier player, John's chosen class wasn't particularly known for its defensive capabilities.

As a spellcaster, maintaining distance from the demon generals was crucial for his survival.

Under the cloak of invisibility, John executed two blink spells in rapid succession, successfully distancing himself from the adversaries.

Now at a safer range, he had the breathing room needed to mount a counterattack.

Leveraging the power of the Book of the Astral Realm, John conjured two space seals.

He also tapped into the magical essence of the Abyssal Prison.

Under the influence of these distinct space seal spells, a defense reminiscent of transparent glass materialized before him, buying John valuable time.

Without the immediate threat of other demons, he began harnessing the power of the Mystery Eye Gemstone.

However, the full potential of the Mystery Eye Gemstone couldn't be unleashed in the Dark Realm, as its mysterious energies were incompatible with the dark power pervading the realm.

At the moment John's defensive barrier was breached, he immediately entered a state of invisibility.

He hoped to first evade the attacks of the two demon generals. These generals wielded giant war hammers, which are known to inflict maximal damage upon players.

Despite being a top-tier player, John's chosen class was not one with high defensive capabilities.

As a spellcaster class, he needed to maintain distance from the demon generals.

While invisible, John consecutively cast two blink spells, successfully evading to a position far from the demon generals, where he finally had ample time to counterattack.

John first harnessed the power of the Book of the Astral Realm, creating two space seals, and also invoked the magical power of the Abyssal Prison.

Under the effect of the two distinct space seal spells, a defense array resembling transparent glass formed before John, buying him more time.

Without the threat of other demons, John began to draw upon the power of the Mystery Eye Gemstone.

The Mystery Eye Gemstone's full potential couldn't be unleashed in the Dark Realm due to the incompatibility between Mystery forces and dark power.

However, aside from its Mystery power, the gemstone also possessed the power of curses.

John intended to use this curse power to thwart Corruptor's assault from within. By extracting the curse power from the Mystery Eye Gemstone, he fused it with the god-tier spell of the Sea God.

"If you think to use these low-tier demons to wear me down, then I'll show you how I can swiftly clear them all!"

John had already deduced Corruptor's plan during the battle.

Corruptor aimed to deplete John's resources using low-tier demons.

If John was significantly weakened, Corruptor would seize the opportunity to attack personally.

Despite not being adept at frontal combat, Corruptor's high rank as a Devil meant a direct attack would pose a significant threat even to a top-tier player like John.

Hence, John was determined to neutralize Corruptor's impending attack.

After fusing the curse power with the Sea God's god-tier spell, John unleashed it, causing a tidal wave to emerge from nowhere and rapidly expand in all directions around him.

This wave was not only imbued with the potent force of water elements but each water element was also cursed with the power from the Mystery Eye Gemstone.

The combination of these two forces meant that every low-tier demon struck by the wave was quickly annihilated by the curse.

In a matter of seconds, all demons, except for Corruptor and the two generals, were eradicated.

John's attack not only neutralized the threat posed by the low-tier demons but also earned him a substantial amount of experience, enabling him to level up amidst the battle.

With John's already high level, each level-up granted him additional attribute points and restored him to peak condition.

"Your plans have failed yet again! It seems you should concede that you're no match for me! Haven't you heard about the Devils I've defeated?! They no longer dare to challenge me; why do you still dare to fight? Since you persist, I'll make you pay dearly! That way, when you encounter me next, you might as well choose to flee!"

Having gained the upper hand, John was in no mood to show mercy.

He aimed to infuriate Corruptor, believing that angering his opponent would make the ensuing battle less challenging for him.

Although Corruptor's intelligence might not be his strongest suit, being a Devil, he was not easily provoked to blind rage.

Devils possess the ability to perceive their adversaries' intentions during combat.

Despite Corruptor's frustration over the ineffectiveness of his previous attacks, he recognized John's true intentions.

Cooling down and resolving to use his full strength, Corruptor decided to collaborate closely with the two demon generals in a war of attrition, aiming to completely overwhelm John.

"You despicable adventurer, don't think such tactics can incite my rage! As a mighty Devil, I am not easily provoked by the likes of adventurers! My initial attack was merely to gauge whether your strength has significantly waned since our last encounter. It appears you haven't weakened much. So, I shall personally demonstrate the true might of a Devil!"

After these words, Corruptor completely enveloped himself in devil flame, which then intensified, becoming even hotter and more blinding than before.

John could sense the devil flame being amplified by a stronger dark power, instinctively stepping back in response.

He was acutely aware that Corruptor's forthcoming assault would be far more formidable than anything prior.

Until he fully grasped Corruptor's true intentions, caution was paramount.

John's instincts were spot on; as he retreated, the devil flame rapidly expanded from Corruptor, covering the surrounding area.

Had John not stepped back, he would have been directly hit by the devil flame.

For an adventurer like John, being struck by devil flame meant defense was nearly impossible, as it was fundamentally different from ordinary flames.

Devil flame not only inflicts severe damage on members outside the Dark Faction but also disrupts the mental state of its foes.

Should a player be targeted by devil flame, their health would rapidly deplete, and their sanity would likewise diminish swiftly.

A complete loss of sanity would forcibly sever the player's connection with the game server, rendering them incapable of any action for a significant period.

"Do you really think such tactics can defeat me? Do you have any more effective methods of attack? If not, it's my turn to counterattack!"

After evading Corruptor's devil flame assault, John immediately launched his counteroffensive.

He was well aware that engaging in a war of attrition with a Devil in the Dark Realm was not a viable strategy.

Thus, he was determined to use his subsequent attack to directly defeat Corruptor.

Driving Corruptor back to the abyssal depths would be the ideal outcome.

For this attack, John chose not to utilize the power of the Book of the Astral Realm, knowing that frequent use could pose significant risks to himself.

He reserved the power of the Book for truly perilous situations.

Although at a disadvantage, he did not perceive the current circumstances as dire enough to warrant such a risk.

Instead, John employed one of his god-tier spells, reinforcing the sealing spell Abyssal Prison around him.

He then transformed the blessing of the Sea God into a radiant blue light, concentrating it in his right hand.

While the Dark Realm is not abundant in water elements, water elements can traverse the seals between the Dark Realm and other realms.

John could feel the strength of his water element power growing increasingly potent.

Once John deemed the power of the water element sufficiently formidable, he initiated his counterattack.

The mighty water element, manifested through a god-tier spell, surged as a tumultuous wave towards Corruptor.

Corruptor, undeterred, chose not to evade; Devils, after all, do not need to be overly cautious when battling in the Dark Realm.

Instead, Corruptor concentrated all the surrounding devil flame to form a massive firewall, confident that it could withstand John's assault with this barrier of devil flame.

Indeed, Corruptor's strategy seemed to succeed, as John's attack failed to make any impact on him.

However, John's deployment of the oceanic spell as a Divine Skill was merely a tactic to buy time for further preparation.

John's true ace was yet to be revealed.

While Corruptor was preoccupied with countering his offensive, John took out the Ocean Gem and a scroll of oceanic spells taught to him by the Naga Queen from his backpack.
