431. Tragedy

Tops looked at his opponent across the table, his brow furrowed.

The other party is very young; according to intelligence, he should be a newly promoted fifth-tier member of the Federation.

Such a genius, whether for the sake of blood sacrifice or for the benefit of the empire, should be eliminated as soon as possible.

What annoyed him even more was the look in the other person's eyes.

'Pity me? Show me mercy? Or are you trying to deliberately provoke me?'

Tops's face darkened, and a dark shadow appeared behind him.

It was a silhouette from behind, and the moment it appeared, a chill ran through everyone present.

Its appearance just now directly shocked the Federation team, causing them to lose their last chance to rescue Schumacher.

"A fifth-tier... no, maybe even a sixth-tier spirit! This feeling..."

Lawrence murmured, a slight tremor running through him.

Sixth-Order Myth!

This is the pinnacle of ordinary paths, giving it a complete and overwhelming advantage against at least fifth-tier professionals.

Moreover, mythical-level professionals also possess unique mythical domain abilities, such as the ability to manipulate celestial phenomena on a large scale, or a force field that even fifth-tier professionals find chilling.

'This Tops, he can actually control such a terrifying spirit... he's probably dying soon, right?'

Spirit Host Evil Spirit Possession is destined to die sooner or later; in fact, the stronger the spirit, the closer its death will be.

When Sulu first saw Tops, he thought it was incredible that he had survived until now.

'And Sulu... judging from the first two matches, there's a high chance he'll die here.'

Lawrence's eyes gleamed.

"Not bad, not bad... It's rare that you were able to find a near-sixth-tier spirit body."

Sulu stared at that retreating figure and nodded repeatedly.

As a [Planeswalker], he is able to sense the other party's rank more clearly.

"You're very brave."

Tops stared at Sulu with his crimson eyes and snorted coldly.

With that hum, invisible ripples attached themselves to it, reaping the benefits from Sulu.

--Soul Harvest!

This is the ' Soul Harvest ' ability that most fifth-tier spirits possess; it's an area-of-effect killing skill.

If this were to happen in the Material World, it could result in tens or hundreds of thousands of deaths and injuries, and even professionals would not be able to escape—this is an attack that directly targets the soul!

"Tops, you're insane!"

Lawrence, who was watching the battle, turned pale, and only after the pendant on his body emitted a pure white light did he recover.

At the same time, I was constantly filled with lingering fear.

If even he, who was affected, is like this, what will happen to Sulu, who is his direct adversary?

Sulu did nothing but raise his right hand and hold it in front of him.

Click! Click!

A crisp sound rang out.

It was as if there were invisible blades in the void, constantly chipping away at the edges of his palm.

The ' Soul Cutting ' technique, which would normally leave even fifth-tier professionals scrambling, was like a Breeze breeze to him, having absolutely no effect.

"Hmm? What a powerful soul!"

Tops' expression turned serious.

Moreover, he also sensed the emotions of the terrifying spirit residing within him.

Amidst hatred and madness, there was also a hint of fear.

They even completely abandoned some of the confrontation and tug-of-war with him, transferring a large amount of power to him.

'Fear... I must be imagining things.'

But right now, I'm in better shape than ever before!

Tops was filled with intense fighting spirit and quickly chanted incantations.

Behind him, a door with numerous patterns engraved on its surface appeared, from which a dense army of Necro-Spirit poured out.

"You know what? I'm very good at dealing with spirits..." Sulu shrugged. "Choosing to join the fray was a huge mistake!"

He gazed at the densely packed Necro-Spirit army, which was even stronger than the previous [King of Necro-Spirits] Bolong, and gently pressed down with his right hand.

Boom!

A terrifying Spirit Pressure descended.

This was an oppressive force even more terrifying than the might of Dragon Might, seemingly carrying the majesty of the entire Spirit World, ancient and vast!

--Spirit Might!

Crackle, crackle.

A large number of low-level spirits shattered like glass bottles in that instant, while the rest scrambled back into the summoning gate.

Click! Click!

Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the summoning gate, and it turned to ashes piece by piece.

"Are you on the path of [Spirit Exorcist]?"

Tops' expression hardened; he knew he had encountered an unprecedented enemy. The shadow behind him solidified, revealing its true form.

It was a figure from behind wearing a yellow robe, seemingly in the twilight. The robe was covered with intricate and delicate tentacle patterns that were dizzying to behold.

"No!"

Sulu shook his head; the Spirit Chain in his right hand were already itching for more.

With a slight lift of his hand, a chain blazing with pale flames shot out like a snake, breaking through the void and piercing Tops ' heart.

"You... can't kill me!"

Despite having his vital organs pierced, Tops was still able to speak, laughing maniacally, "I am immortal!!"

Puff!

The Spirit Chain pierced through his body did not stop; they wrapped around the yellow-robed figure, binding him again and again.

Sulu held a blank Sealing Card and began chanting an incantation.

A the Vortex appeared in mid-air, and the chains retracted, drawing the Yellow-Robed Spirit into the Vortex.

It was constantly twisted and eventually disappeared into the Sealing Card, transforming into a vividly colored silhouette.

Spirit capture successful!

Even Sulu was somewhat surprised that the spirit body was sealed so easily.

He had previously crafted two Sealing Card; one sealed the Headless Demon, and the other he hadn't yet found a suitable target for.

Now, it just so happens to be used on this Yellow-Robed Spirit.

Once captured and sealed, no matter what strange abilities the other party possesses, it will be useless!

'So easily... Perhaps Tops was involved; he had already used his body to restrain the Yellow-Robed Spirit, I merely moved it to a more secure cage.'

'And... my abilities have increased dramatically; I've already reached the limit of the fifth rank.'

'With both of them combined, if he were to face me, it would be a complete tragedy!'

Sulu closed his eyes and observed three seconds of silence for Tops.

"I... I am... immortal!"

Tops lowered his head, staring at his bleeding chest, and muttered to himself.

Immediately, various injuries appeared on his body, including being slashed by knives and swords, drowned by water, and burned by fire, tearing him to pieces.

This was a fatal injury he had suffered before!

The Yellow-Robed Spirit was not erased, but merely postponed.

Now that the Yellow-Robed Spirit Robe is sealed away and no longer restrained, all sorts of fatal wounds are erupting at once, enough to kill Tops ten million times over!

Silence!

Silence fell between the two sides.

No one could have imagined that Tops would lose so quickly and so miserably!

Sulu simply waved his hand and chanted a few incantations, sealing away Tops's greatest trump card and ensuring his demise!

This is indeed a great tragedy!
