Ambush, Full Power Unleashed

"Murder?" Lynn looked at the Floating Light Demon in confusion. "Who is it?"

Hatred flashed through the Floating Light Demon's eyes. "He is one of my greatest enemies. My sworn brother died at his hands, and he is also a veteran Seven-star Demon. I couldn't do anything to him before, but my strength has improved considerably over the years. I'm confident I can kill him!"

"But just in case, I'd like to ask you to come with me, Lynn," the Floating Light Demon continued. "Perhaps I won't even need you to act. I can kill him alone!"

Lynn nodded. "All right. When do we leave?"

He had already planned to travel and gain experience. Since the Floating Light Demon had come to ask for help, he would do him this favor and repay the debt he owed him.

"Excellent! Then we'll set out in ten days!" As the Floating Light Demon spoke, his blood-red eyes seemed so vivid they looked ready to drip blood.

Ten days passed in a flash.

Lynn had agreed to help the Floating Light Demon kill a great enemy, and today was the day of departure.

At the City Lord's residence, the Floating Light Demon directly tossed out a bat-shaped Metal Life. The two of them flew into it one after the other, and the Metal Life immediately turned into a streak of light and flew out of the city.

Others were forbidden from flying within the city, but as the City Lord, the Floating Light Demon was naturally not bound by this rule.

Inside the Metal Life, the Floating Light Demon created a comfortable lounge under his control. The two reclined leisurely on soft sofas, after which he took out fine wine and invited Lynn to drink.

The Floating Light Demon's great enemy lived in seclusion within the Galsis Mountain Range, near the Star Mist Sea on the Muya Continent. Even if the Metal Life flew day and night without stopping, it would still take one or two years to reach it.

Several months later, their Metal Life had already left Moon Shadow Mansion's territory and entered the skies above a vast stretch of volcanoes.

Lynn looked down at the volcanic range below.

"Hiss, hiss~~" White mist rose sporadically from the mountain range. Countless corpses and bones of various creatures lay scattered throughout the volcanoes, creating an incomparably eerie and desolate sight.

"This is..." Lynn was just about to ask the Floating Light Demon where they were.

Suddenly, a strand of Spiritual Sense swept across the Metal Life. Lynn could not help frowning, thinking it was a bandit from Hell.

But then, a ball of flame slammed directly into the head of their Metal Life. The entire Metal Life instantly—

"Bang!"

Exploded!

Above the volcanic range stretching for tens of thousands of miles, Lynn stood suspended in the air. Below him, volcano after volcano erupted in succession, causing the earth to tremble continuously. The thick smell of sulfur lingered around his nose.

But he had no time to observe the scene below. In the sky, four figures had firmly sealed off all sides around him, leaving him not the slightest room to escape.

"Makram, Floating Light Demon..." Lynn swept his gaze across the four figures.

Aside from Makram, the elder of the Four Divine Beast Families whom he knew, and the Floating Light Demon who had lured him here, the other two were a graceful woman with green hair and a burly man with short black hair.

"Heh." Lynn laughed at himself and looked toward the Floating Light Demon. "It seems that if I had gone to Milo Island to watch that scrying image, this ambush would have happened a hundred years ago."

By now, how could he not realize that the Floating Light Demon had long since colluded with Makram? They simply did not dare act in the city, in front of the Muya Legion. That was why the Floating Light Demon had previously tried to lure him out of the city by using the excuse of watching a Main God's scrying image of an attack.

When he refused to go, they did not act rashly. Instead, they endured until now, only finding an excuse to deceive him into coming out.

But they had no idea what had happened over the past hundred years!

More than a hundred years might have been no more than the blink of an eye to them. Yet during those years, he had successfully fused four lightning-element Fusion Profundities and Devoured an enormous number of divine sparks.

His strength was now at least a hundred times greater than it had been over a century ago!

"I really am somewhat surprised. I never expected you to endure for so long without going to watch a Main God's scrying image of an attack!" The Floating Light Demon grinned, his blood-red eyes seeming ready to bleed. "But in the end, you still left the city!"

"Very well." Lynn nodded and did not respond further. He turned his gaze toward Makram. "Ever since my conflict with the Four Divine Beast Families began, I have yielded at every turn. In the end, I even sold you the Fallen Realm Token. It seems you still want to kill me?"

"Hmph! You still dare mention it? If you hadn't interfered, I could have obtained the Fallen Realm Token without lifting a finger!" Flames flickered in Makram's eyes, as though he wished to burn Lynn to ashes. "If I hadn't lacked enough Sovereign's Might, I wouldn't have come away empty-handed from the Fallen Realm this time!"

"I understand." Lynn nodded, then looked at the graceful woman and the short-haired brute. "Were you two invited by Makram to deal with me?"

Makram seemed to want to toy with him, and did not rush to kill him immediately. In his eyes, Lynn was merely an ordinary Seven-star Demon. Even if he possessed Sovereign's Might, the four of them also had Sovereign's Might, and they were attacking him together.

Lynn was undoubtedly doomed!

The Sovereign's Might he has was even stolen from me! At that thought, anger rose in Makram's heart once more.

The Four Divine Beast Families had always been the ones robbing others. Since when had anyone dared rob the Four Divine Beast Families?

"Don't waste your effort!" Makram sneered. "These two are friends I met in the Fallen Realm. Their strength is no weaker than mine. Killing you will be as easy as turning a hand!"

Lynn turned a deaf ear to Makram's mockery. He merely looked indifferently at the two and said, "May I know where you are from, and your names? I'll remember them so I can carve them onto your tombstones later."

Upon hearing Lynn's words, the graceful woman could not help letting out a laugh, as though mocking his overestimation of himself. "You may remember this. The one who will kill you is Lidovia of the Hurley Family from the Lightning Element Plane."

The short-haired brute grinned savagely. "Kid, remember this. Vistov will be the one to kill you!"

"Very well! Lidovia, Vistov, is it?" Lynn nodded, and a long staff radiating a green glow appeared in his hand.

For Soul Attacks, he was accustomed to using a longsword. But Makram knew that he possessed Sovereign's Might. Since these four had dared come to surround and kill him, they certainly possessed Sovereign's Might as well. Relying solely on Soul Attacks would likely take some effort to deal with them.

Over the past hundred years, he had fused the lightning-element Power of Destruction and created a supreme Material Attack. Today was the perfect chance to test it on these people.

In an instant, Lynn used a drop of Fire Lord God Power. His entire body was enveloped in a fiery red glow, and within that terrifyingly powerful red radiance was mixed a trace of black.

Four fused Profundities plus a mid-level god: Six-star Demon!

High-level Divine Artifact-grade divine body, plus Origin Power: several-hundredfold amplification, several times the power of a Seven-star Demon!

Then add Sovereign's Might: another thousandfold amplification, thousands of times the power of a Seven-star Demon!

Lynn held the staff at a slant and looked indifferently at the four of them. Enunciating each word, he said, "You can die now!"
