Just think about Soren's Change Shape the Slayer, and you'll understand how formidable this thing is!

Faced with the colossal, over 8,000-pound Slayer, the Paladin ' Defense Formation was practically nonexistent. No one could withstand this monster; the power and size of the attack were overwhelming. This monster's crushing power surpassed even that of the Balor, possessing a massive size yet moving with incredible speed. Its alien-mother-like high-speed movement, combined with its terrifying destructive force, inflicted heavy losses on the Paladin in the blink of an eye.

But this is just the beginning!

After retreating briefly during the initial exchange, the Vampire God Child immediately charged into the Paladin's formation.

Soren is still unable to determine the Vampire God Child's profession, only that he possesses Vampire racial bonuses, extremely high movement speed, formidable combat power, and various terrifying Spell abilities. Vampire Advanced Class Professional face racial penalties, so his base profession level is unlikely to be very high. However, considering his Vampire racial talents, along with the abilities and Portfolio he gained after achieving godhood, his danger level is even greater than that of the Hell Poet.

--"Sunburst!"

A terrifying burst of light erupted in the dark underground space, Spell not only the Paladin present, but also the Vampire God Child, the Hell Poet, and Soren.

However, the enemy was clearly affected more severely!

Clang.

As the power of the Sunburst raged, a Paladin who had been holding back finally charged out. He instantly drew his sword and slashed horizontally at the Slayer before him.

--"Smite Evil!"

A holy radiance appeared.

The sword seemed to be shrouded in an indescribable power. In just a moment, a shocking gash was cut open on half of the Slayer's body, revealing even his internal organs.

Holy Avenger!

This Artifact's penetrating power is enough to ignore the Xenomorph Demon's resistance.

The paladin wielding the Paladin Holy Avenger - Carsomyr is so powerful! Every attack he makes leaves terrible wounds on the Slayer. At the same time, the Artifact's power automatically adds Divine Damage upon hitting an enemy, and also produces a Legendary- level Dispel Magic effect.

This world is still quite kind to Paladin.

Among the most powerful Artifact in the Material Plane, two are exclusively for use by Paladin.

One is [Holy Avenger], and the other is [Pale Justice].

The Tier 5 Artifact was enough to crush Greater Demon. The Slayer's injuries were worsening, while the Paladin wielding the Holy Avenger remained unscathed under the cover of his comrades. The tide of battle was turning little by little. If the summoned Slayer were killed, the Paladin, who clearly had the numerical advantage and also possessed the Artifact, would undoubtedly have a higher chance of winning. Moreover, Paladin were inherently very effective against Evil forces, and this advantage in combat compensated for some of the difference in strength.

but.

Faced with this situation, neither the Vampire God Child nor the Hell Poet appeared flustered.

They were even closing in, especially the Vampire God Child fighting the Warden, who was using his high speed to gradually bring the Warden closer to the Paladin's lines. The distance was changing little by little. The Vampire were even getting closer to the clergy, and even closer to the Paladin wielding the Holy Avenger.

This distance.

This made Soren think of something bad!

"Oops!"

Soren suddenly seemed to sense something, and he instantly burst out of the shadows, his figure flashing out as if preparing to charge into the battlefield at this moment.

But!

It was all too late.

--"Avatar's Domain: Time Stop!"

Soren didn't know if these Paladin before him had any experience fighting against Avatar who Avatar of Deity. But judging from their current state, they probably didn't have much experience. Their fighting style was clearly the same as when dealing with ordinary Legendary figures. Even Vivian could cast the Epic Spell ' Time Stop ', and as one of the most powerful Fear God Child, the Vampire Reinhard couldn't possibly have not mastered one or two Epic Spell after becoming a god.

Time Stop.

Time has been frozen! What's the point of fighting then?

Everyone else present was instantly enveloped, whether they were the Warden or the clergy. They all froze in place. Even the nearby Hell Poet remained motionless.

He's not Demigod!

No matter how powerful Legendary is, they cannot be immune to the effect of Time Stop.

"Hehehe!"

The Vampire God Child let out a strange laugh. His figure transformed into a streak of light and flew out. His first target was not the Paladin wielding the Holy Avenger, but the Spellcaster standing behind the defensive line.

A violent burst of Spell Aura erupted!

However, all the activated defensive fields shattered like eggshells, and the Vampire God Child easily broke through all the defensive Spell. In the blink of an eye, he ripped a still-beating heart out of the priest's chest.

Time Stop and is still continuing.

The Paladin, struck by the full force of the spell, had no chance of surviving until the Spell ended. The Avatar's attack easily broke through their defenses. Even if the Vampire God Child was a weak Deity, he was still a god.

The second target is the Paladin.

Whether it's a pure physique, Fortitude Save, Legendary Constitution, or Epic Toughness, in the face of Vampire God Child in Avatar Form, these are nothing more than a second or two of extra time.

Within the effects of the Time Stop Spell, he could easily finish the battle!

A cold glint flashed.

The Vampire easily crippled the Paladin wielding the Holy Avenger once again, while preparing to take his life in the next attack.

"Since you Shadow Spirit ghosts are looking for death, then I'll grant your wish!"

The Vampire God Child had barely finished speaking when a cold, sharp light suddenly pierced through from behind him. Soren appeared, his expressionless figure flashing as his Scimitar, Icetail, mercilessly stabbed towards the prince's heart. Vampire ' racial talents are too abnormal; to kill them, one must attack certain specific locations.

"How is that possible?!"

The Vampire God Child's face was filled with astonishment, an expression of disbelief on his face. Accompanied by a cold glint, Soren directly broke through the energy defense field on his body and swung his sword towards the enemy's heart. But in that instant, the Vampire God Child seemed to have triggered other defensive abilities, and a second energy defense field directly blocked Soren's attack.

It didn't break through the defense!

There are quite a few trigger-based defensive Spell in Avatar Form.

Soren had anticipated this and, without hesitation, swung his sword again to stab.

--"Shadow Assassination!"

Faced with Soren's relentless attacks, the Vampire God Child's figure suddenly transformed into a cloud of blood-red gas and instantly escaped his attack range.

--"Vaporized form!"

The gas rapidly reformed into human form, and the Vampire God Child exclaimed in astonishment, "Who?!"

He still hasn't seen what Soren looks like.

--"Hide Sight!"

The moment the enemy vaporized, Soren vanished back into the shadows. His ' Anti-Detection Cloak,' comparable to Artifact, made it impossible for the Vampire God Child to see him.

"Immune to my Time Stop!... Who is it?... Are there other Deity nearby?...?"

The Vampire God Child's expression was somewhat surprised and suspicious. He cautiously kept his distance. He couldn't see any trace of the enemy, who was silently approaching without being detected. Every little thing told the Vampire God Child that the enemy who appeared was no ordinary person. With just one strike, the enemy had broken through his Energy Protection Field, and the enemy possessed the ability to seriously injure or even kill him.

Soren vanished from the spot.

However, he did not continue attacking the Vampire God Child at this moment, but instead turned and rushed towards the Paladin who wielded the Holy Avenger.

"Ah!"

A sacred radiance appeared.

A searing pain shot through Soren's hand as he grasped the Holy Avenger's palm; the pain seemed to seep into his very soul, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

But all of this happened in an instant.

The next moment!

Soren let out a low growl, gripped the Holy Avenger in both hands, and transformed into a streak of light as he slashed at the Vampire God Child before him.

"Versatile Hands!" (To be continued~^~)
