I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means
Chapter 1612 - 892: Endless Abyss First Battle (Part 2)
The Abyss Worms around sensed the dangerous aura, and their plump bodies began to tremble violently. Their previously slow crawling suddenly turned into a panic-stricken scramble.
These worms twisted their bodies, desperately trying to crawl away from the area, as if terrified of being caught in the impending battle.
The Two-winged Demon slowly stood up from the billowing dust. Though its body was large, it appeared somewhat bedraggled after the violent collision.
Its expression was extremely furious, veins bulging on its forehead, and the red glow in its eyes grew even more intense.
It couldn’t believe that Lis, this seemingly weak human, dared to resist its attack, which filled it with immense anger and humiliation.
Thus, the Two-winged Demon suddenly flapped its wings, which were like two gigantic fans, creating a powerful airflow that quickly dispersed the surrounding dust.
It widened its eyes, frantically searching for Lis’s position amidst the billowing dust, eager to tear to shreds this guy who dared to challenge it.
At this moment, there was a flash of movement in front, and Lis appeared in front of the demon like a ghost.
His eyes were grim, and a faint blood-colored aura surrounded him.
On his right hand, the originally normal nails had somehow become long and sharp, glinting with an eerie and sharp light, accompanied by a hint of ominous blood sheen.
Lis used one hand as a blade, his figure like lightning, rapidly slashing towards the demon’s neck.
His movements were as fast as lightning, leaving a trail of residual shadows in the air, making it impossible to clearly see his specific actions.
When the Two-winged Demon saw Lis’s hand blade, swift as lightning and brimming with fierce killing intent, closing in on its neck, it was shocked.
This sudden attack left the demon no time to think. Instinctively, it slapped its wings forward with force.
The gale from the flapping wings swept towards Lis.
Seeing this, Lis frowned slightly.
He knew very well that although his attack with his right hand could successfully slice open the demon’s neck.
Doing so would completely expose him to the demon’s powerful slap, making it impossible to evade.
After all, this Two-winged Demon was a formidable being surpassing him by an entire rank.
With his current strength, taking this hit would surely result in severe injury, possibly even endangering his life.
Lis had no intention of perishing together with the demon.
Thus, with a composed expression, he lightly stepped back a few steps with ease.
That seemingly casual retreat precisely evaded the demon’s fierce attack, causing its slap to miss.
Seeing its attack easily dodged by Lis, the Two-winged Demon had a realization.
It became aware that this human-like demon before it was not simple, and a trace of panic surged within.
So, it hastily and frantically flapped its wings, wanting to use their power to fly away from the unsettling "little fellow."
Though on the surface, Lis’s strength seemed weak.
But for some reason, the demon felt an extremely strange aura from him, making it instinctively want to flee.
However, Lis did not intend to let the demon escape easily.
Just as the demon flapped its wings and slightly lifted off the ground, a cold light flashed.
Lis had somehow closed in, his left hand with an eerie blood sheen, pierced through the demon’s left wing like a sharp dagger.
In pain, the demon let out a deafening roar, full of agony and anger.
No escape!
This thought flashed through the Two-winged Demon’s mind, and it began to go berserk.
Despite its cowardice and penchant for hunting young demons by the Nether River, it was still a demon.
Confronted with a situation with no way out, it had no other thought, its mind filled only with thoughts of carnage.
Its eyes, filled with rage due to the pain, displayed a maniacal hue, and the originally black feathers appeared to ignite, glimmering with an eerie glow.
At this moment, the Two-winged Demon was in a state of complete frenzy.
The abyssal power within it twisted like a surging tide, the power that had been dormant now unleashed like a beast breaking free of its chains.
Wind Blades, wrapped in a dense black aura, burst from its body.
The Wind Blades, sharp as knives, came hurtling fiercely towards Lis with a fierce, howling wail.
Wherever these blades passed, the air distorted and the ground was scarred with deep grooves.
However, Lis remained unfazed.
His eyes shone bright as stars, calmly observing everything before him.
Facing this storm-like barrage of Wind Blades, he stood his ground, as stable as a rock.
With only a slight shift of his feet, those seemingly casual yet precise movements evaded every Wind Blade’s attack.
His body appeared to merge with the surrounding space, each dodge ghostly, causing the demon’s attacks to all miss.
The demon, seeing its attacks ineffective, grew even more frantic.
Ignoring everything, it continued to unleash its abyssal power, preparing for more ferocious assaults.
At this moment, Lis seized the opportunity, no longer passively on the defensive.
His figure flashed, closing the distance to the demon as swiftly as lightning.
He swung his right hand, an eerie glowing blood instantly taking shape, forming a Blood-colored Long Sword.
This sword glimmered with a bloodthirsty red glow, exuding a menacing aura.
Lis, holding the Blood-colored Long Sword, unhesitatingly thrust it towards the demon.
Where the sword’s edge pointed, red streaks tore through the air, seeming to rip apart space itself.
Completely maddened, the demon ignored its defense, both massive claws lunging at Lis like steel hooks.
One claw, with a howl of wind, aimed fiercely for Lis’s sword, while the other from the side aimed to grab Lis’s vulnerable body.
Lis remained unruffled, slightly lifting the Blood-colored Long Sword in his hand.
The sword, as nimble as a dancer, locked the demon’s two claws with precision.
The sword and claws clashed with a screeching metallic sound, blood spraying everywhere.
Meanwhile, Lis waved his left hand, unleashing Vampire’s Touch.
Several blood-colored tendrils, like lively snakes, shot from his hand, instantly wrapping around the demon’s body.
These tendrils bound the demon tightly, making its struggles futile.
The demon writhed frantically, trying to break free, but it was all in vain.
Lis’s gaze was stern, applying more power, the Blood-colored Long Sword and tendrils exerting force simultaneously.
The Blood-colored Long Sword in Lis’s hand sliced gently across the demon’s neck with a fierce momentum.
As the sword’s edge passed, it seemed to slice through the air itself, producing a light hiss.
In an instant, foul black blood gushed from the demon’s neck like a fountain, splashing onto the ground and corroding it with black smoke.
The demon sensed its life waning, frantically thrashing its massive body and flapping its wings violently, trying to escape this fate of death.
Its claws clawed wildly, emitting piercing cries filled with unwillingness and despair.
But it was all futile.
Under Lis’s strong suppression, the demon’s struggles grew weaker and weaker.
Finally, its massive body slowly fell, ceasing to breathe, dying by this Nether River shore.
After slaying the Abyss Demon, Lis’s expression remained unchanged, though he raised his left hand slightly.
In the battle just now, he had gauged the demon avatar’s strength.
One piece of good news and one piece of bad news.
But overall, it was within Lis’s estimation.
