From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

"Yeager, what are you planning to do?"

Darren instantly sensed that something was wrong. Yeager's expression was grave, and his eyes were unwaveringly resolute, as if he had made some intense decision.

Yeager did not answer but muttered continuously, reciting some kind of spell.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, an Abyssal Flame Demon slowly emerged from a sea of molten lava, proclaiming its arrival with a stance that shook heaven and earth.

The size of the Abyssal Flame Demon was unimaginably huge, as if it were a fearsome beast formed from a fusion of molten lava and rock, its body covered with scorching magma, occasionally sparking and even resembling falling stars, lighting up the surrounding dim space.

Its massive head had eyes as hot as furnaces, flashing with a dim red light, seemingly able to peer into the deepest fears of the heart. Its large, flame-wrapped fangs were extremely sharp, each capable of tearing through the hardest rock.

Its limbs were incredibly thick and powerful, each step it took causing the ground to shake vehemently, as if even the sea of fire trembled beneath it. Its enormous wings, though wrapped in flames, could unfold in an instant to darken the skies, bringing with them destructive hot winds that in no time turned many weaker demons to ashes.

"This is bad!"

Darren could sense a massive threat, with the Abyssal Flame Demon appearing like a demon god of flames, towering thousands of meters high, its oppressive presence even more terrifying than the dark demon from before.

With his face turning red from the heat, Yeager did not hesitate to shout loudly,

"Help me attack it, Lord Darren, Lord Chris, help me! I have an alchemical tool that can absorb its power; it was left behind by Viscount Bast. Please, help me!"

Darren took a deep breath, having understood Yeager's actions, and no longer asked 'what exactly do you want to do?'

Although it was completely unexpected, since things had come to this, they could only cooperate. If Yeager could benefit, then the Dawn Church would also gain some strength.

The Abyssal Flame Demon possessed the tremendous power of a high-level Monarch!

Every movement it made was filled with surging strength. Its pure power was extremely terrifying; it could control the flames around it and transform them into lethal weapons, whether spewing out streams of flames capable of melting steel or summoning violent firestorms that struck fear into anyone who heard it!

The Abyssal Flame Demon could also emit a deafening roar from its mouth, containing a powerful psychic shock capable of instilling fear in even the bravest warriors, making them lose their fighting will!

Its existence served as a warning to the many demons in Hell; in this domain ruled by raging flames, the Abyssal Flame Demon was the undisputed king, and its every appearance heralded a devastating calamity!

With a serious expression, Yeager pulled out a black object that looked like a dark smoke pot, painted with special purple patterns and continuously emitting a sense of madness, seemingly containing a powerful force!

He seriously said, "This is an alchemical tool specially made for absorbing demon power... I need your help!"

Darren immediately responded, "Just with the three of us, it's impossible to defeat it!"

Yeager shook his head, continuing, "It doesn't matter, even if we only absorb a part of its power, it's still a huge gain!"

"Awo!"

The Abyssal Flame Demon roared furiously, showing hostility to the three without hesitation.

Darren was annoyed that Yeager hadn't consulted them before making his unilateral decision, but deep down he knew that it wasn't the time to bring this up yet.

He instantly activated all the power available to enhance his body, transforming in an instant into a massive and fearsome Demon Dragon, while using a black tide to mitigate the temperature of the lava, holding a black horn in his mouth as he charged forward, barely resisting the Abyssal Flame Demon's attacks.

Compared to the two colossal beings, Darren's size seemed much smaller.

Endless flames surged onto him, filling him with a sensation of intense heat.

Without doubt, even after strengthening his body to this extent, Darren still felt that the opponent's power was far superior to his own!

"Uh, that's normal, I guess, after all, the Abyssal Flame Demon is a high-level Monarch great demon, I can barely hold off for a while but I still can't beat it..."

Chris's expression was complex; his abilities were very effective in assassinating single targets, undoubtedly making him one of the top assassins among Monarch powerful experts.

However, at that moment, he felt very powerless; he couldn't contribute more than Darren, and neither the Fire of Sin nor the Eye of Conviction were effective. Even if he used time stasis combined with blades, it was difficult to inflict much damage on the Abyssal Flame Demon.

"It will be over soon!"

As Yeager shouted, several demons covered in frost, resembling withered trees, crawled out of the shadows, and they jumped onto the body of the Abyssal Flame Demon, suddenly freezing its terrifying flames.

Darren could clearly feel that although these demons weren't particularly strong, they were the perfect counter to fire-elemental power; even he felt a chilling sensation that was extremely uncomfortable.

Yeager recited the spell again, and countless flames flew up from the body of the Abyssal Flame Demon like a fire tornado towards the dark smoke pot!

The pot continuously absorbed the power of the demon, and his eyes also revealed a frenzied look.

"Very good! Very good! Hahaha! It's great! If it could absorb all its power... It couldn't be better!"

Just then, the gigantic Abyssal Flame Demon suddenly collapsed inward, followed by an imminent eruption of terrifying power!

Disaster!

Darren, who was closest, instantly sensed extreme danger!

"Quick, recite the spell to return!" he immediately shouted.

Yeager was stunned for a moment, hesitated briefly, then nodded immediately, "Okay!"

Although he was very reluctant to not absorb more demonic power, he knew his limits and immediately began to recite the return spell.

Meanwhile, the three of them gradually moved away from this place.

The shape of the Abyssal Flame Demon shrank drastically, then it started to expand continuously, with the flames surrounding it becoming more intense, as if it was about to devour the entire hell.

Suddenly, it seemed to be empowered by some mysterious force, and a dazzling light point began to converge at its center, rapidly expanding until it was no different from a small sun, releasing a brilliant light capable of illuminating the entire Abyss!

This light contained endless heat and destructive power, sweeping away the surrounding cold demons, leaving only a boiling sea of fire!

The Abyssal Flame Demon seemed to transform into the most dazzling existence between heaven and earth, each breath accompanied by a thunderous boom, shocking every corner of hell!

However, the brilliant and terrifying scene did not last long. The energy inside the Abyssal Flame Demon reached a critical point, it could no longer withstand this enormous force, and with an ear-splitting roar, the body of the Abyssal Flame Demon suddenly burst open, resulting in an unprecedented massive explosion!

"Ah!"

The power of this explosion was immeasurable, instantly tearing everything around it into fragments, and fire and lava were thrown all around, creating a destructive storm!

As the flame storm caught up, Chris did not hesitate to use the Rift Moment, pausing the terrible explosion behind them!

They watched the terrifying flames all around, as Yeager, sweating profusely, furiously recited the spell!

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

Time stasis ended!

Under the Iron Mask, Darren's eyes widened as he watched the explosion approaching, subconsciously using the black tide to block it!

When the aftermath of the explosion gradually dissipated and the Lava Hell returned to calm, it was completely transformed. The once rivers of lava were blasted into disjointed pieces, forming new terrain and landforms.

Most of the creatures that had once lived in this hell were obliterated in the disaster.

Only the embers left by the Abyssal Flame Demon, which had transformed into a small sun, were still burning slowly. It had not died but entered a weakened state and would fully recover before long.

The power of that strike was sufficient to directly destroy all powerful experts below the Heavenly Enlightenment.

——

"Cough, cough, cough…"

Darren felt a strong dizziness, realized that the three of them had already returned to Snow Mountain.

"We're back…"

At this moment, he was very weak, knowing that he had still been affected by that powerful energy wave at the last moment.

Soon Darren realized Yeager had fainted right next to him. Recalling the last moments, Yeager had stood in front of the two, using Silver Radiance Barrier to block the impact for a moment, thus he received the most damage.

However, Darren felt no gratitude.

He took a deep breath and muttered, "This danger was caused by your actions alone, there's absolutely no need for me to feel moved... Instead, I must punish you, Yeager."

"Ambitious Yeager, I actually don't dislike such thrilling actions, it's just that next time you fail to explain the situation in advance, you… definitely cannot be forgiven!"

However, before Darren could say anything else, he quickly heard Chris's cold reminder.

"The Rhea People are here."

"I know!"

Darren nodded lightly, his eyes cold under the Iron Mask, feeling unsurprised deep inside.

With the basic Perception Ability of a 5th Rank Consecution Extraordinary Exponent, he could clearly sense that four Monarch Level Extraordinary Exponents were approaching from two directions.
