On the Battle Arena, Ren and Electra were unaware that a Seven-Star Demon from the Four Divine Beasts Clan was watching their fight from below; at this moment, the two of them had eyes only for each other.
"How many years has it been? Aside from the Prefect, it has been a long time since anyone forced me to use my full strength. I will remember you, Ren."
A hoarse voice echoed across the stage. Electra's brows furrowed, and after his figure blurred for a moment, it suddenly split into two. Beside the gray-robed version of himself, another Electra appeared, sporting long, blood-red hair and eyes that shimmered with a mix of gray-white and crimson.
This time, it was not an energy clone, but a true Divine Clone—a clone that cultivated the Death Law and had also reached the level of a Seven-Star Demon. This was Electra's true trump card, one he had rarely used in countless years.
"Oh? Another clone? This guy has two Seven-Star Demon clones?" A rare trace of surprise flickered in Ren's otherwise calm eyes.
Possessing multiple Divine Clones was not a strange occurrence in the Divine Plane. Although people with four Divine Clones like Linley were rare, those with two were not exactly everywhere, but they were certainly not hard to find either.
It was just that, after the battle they had just fought, Electra should have realized Ren's strength. Even if his clone had the strength of a Six-Star Demon, bringing it out now would be no different than using it as cannon fodder. Therefore, since he dared to do this, there was only one possibility: he was confident in the strength of his clone. His Death Divine Clone was also a Seven-Star Demon.
In the Divine Plane, most people only had one strongest Divine Clone. The other clones were either used to enjoy life or were scattered to some safe place to live in seclusion, giving themselves an extra life. In the past, it wasn't as if no one had tried to cultivate their other clones, but in the end, only a very small number of people succeeded.
There was no other reason than talent limitations. People capable of possessing top-tier talent in two elements simultaneously were, in the end, a minority. Even Linley, whose Wind and Earth talents were both strong, focused primarily on the Earth element in the Divine Plane. After leaving the Amethyst Mountains, his Wind Divine Clone had basically served no purpose other than refining a Sovereign Spark.
"From here on out, this is my true strength. Ren, prepare to die!" The voice of Electra came from the long-haired, blood-red clone, the sound wave seemingly imbued with peculiar ripples.
The blood-haired Electra extended his right hand, his eyes shooting out hazy black light as he muttered some unintelligible words.
"Hum~"
Electra's palm suddenly changed color, blood-red light spreading from the center of his palm, and instantly, a transparent palm print surged toward Ren.
"A soul attack?" Ren's eyes flickered. Two transparent, void sword shadows erupted from his eyes, colliding with the transparent palm print.
"As expected, such tricks cannot stump you. However, this is only just the beginning."
The gray-robed Electra sneered. Gray divine power immediately spread out, and the long whip in his hand extended strangely, exceeding a hundred meters in the blink of an eye. Like a massive willow tree, it used the whip as a trunk to condense dozens of gray filaments, which coiled toward Ren from all directions.
Through the previous battle, Electra knew that when it came to material attacks, he was likely not a match. Therefore, this time, he did not seek to inflict damage, but only to bind. By transforming his divine power into threads, he only sought to restrict Ren's movements.
Although doing this consumed a great deal of divine power and could not cause substantial damage to his opponent, it could be coordinated with his Death Divine Clone to launch continuous soul attacks, leaving Ren no chance to dodge.
The Mysteries of the Water Law were adept at material defense, but in terms of soul attainments, it was hard to compare with the Death Law. Electra did not believe Ren's soul defense would be outrageously strong as well.
"Sizzle, sizzle~"
A large amount of ice appeared out of thin air, forming a spherical ice barrier around Ren. Dozens of gray threads slammed into the ice wall, which emitted a burst of white light and remained motionless until the threads dissipated completely and the barrier dissolved into white mist.
At the same time, the moment the gray threads coiled toward Ren and collided with the ice wall, the blood-haired Electra flew high into the air. His eyes suddenly turned white, and a transparent ripple spread out, radiating toward Ren's sea of consciousness. A transparent flame appeared above Ren's head.
"The Fire of Repentance from the Death Law?"
The moment the ice barrier vanished, Ren looked up at the sky, his eyes instantly turning sharp. The Ice-Blood Sword in his hand traced a perfect arc, and a white, semi-transparent sword shadow flew from the blade.
After the white sword shadow collided with the transparent flame, the volume of the flame shrank significantly. Only a tiny remnant rushed into the center of Ren's brow. Inside his soul sea, a blue halo erupted, swallowing the invading flame whole.
"To be able to cultivate both the Law of Destruction and the Death Law to this level, and to achieve perfect coordination between them, you are truly worthy of being called gifted, Electra."
After neutralizing the Fire of Repentance, Ren looked at Electra with a composed expression, his tone carrying a hint of admiration.
Electra's strength was much higher than he had anticipated. The Law of Destruction excelled in material attacks, while the Death Law excelled in soul attacks; the two coordinated to produce unexpected effects. It was already difficult to deal with two Seven-Star Demons, and since these two were clones of the same person with shared consciousness, their coordination was seamless.
"Hm? Judging by your tone, you don't seem to think you will lose?"
Electra's brows furrowed tightly, his tone showing surprise. The two clones stood one in front of the other, watching Ren vigilantly.
Although their coordinated attack had been blocked by Ren, the Fire of Repentance unleashed by his Death Divine Clone had successfully entered Ren's soul sea. Electra believed that as long as he dragged this out and unleashed a few more soul attacks, Ren would eventually be unable to block them.
However, Ren's expression and tone at this moment seemed to show no pressure at all, which couldn't help but raise a bad premonition in Electra's heart.
"The combat power displayed by the coordination of your Destruction clone and Death clone is indeed beyond my expectations. However, that is as far as it goes. Your strength is still quite a bit behind the top-tier Seven-Star Demons. This battle should end here."
Ren shook his head slightly, then his entire body suddenly soared into the air. A cyan halo radiated from him as the center, and waves suddenly rose between heaven and earth. White threads merged into them, resembling a monstrous, heaven-covering net.
In an instant, the threads swirled and rotated, causing the surrounding space to vibrate. In a daze, countless invisible spatial threads seemed to twist and coil together, like a net shrouding the world, covering Electra's two clones.
