" Lilith," Uhtred, clad in black robes, spoke again, "Now that you've broken through to the Paragon stage, you do indeed have the qualifications to fight me, but it's not enough!"
"You should know, I have that other move." Although Uhtred didn't specify which move it was, almost everyone present knew what it was.
" Uhtred, I admit your move was terrifying. But that move mainly targets the soul. And what I fear least is Soul Attack! I might not have been able to withstand your move before, but now that I'm at the Paragon stage, I might not be able to withstand it anymore." Hearing Uhtred's words, the Sovereign of Death continued to reply indifferently.
"Indeed, even before she reached the Paragon, my Soul Attack could ignore my ultimate move. Now that she has reached the Paragon realm, her soul defense has increased a hundredfold... Even Uhtred's attack shouldn't be fatal." Life Sovereign Viviah realized this at this moment.
Although the eldest sister did not possess Overgod Divine Artifact for soul defense, her soul itself seemed to be quite special. Even before she reached the Paragon stage, she could easily withstand the Soul Attack of several Paragon Sovereign.
If she might not have been able to withstand Uhtred's attack before her breakthrough, now that she has reached the Paragon realm and her strength has been further enhanced, that may no longer be the case.
"Oh? You seem quite confident." Uhtred smiled noncommittally, but didn't rush to use that move.
That move, after all, could only be activated using the Four Divine Beasts Essence Blood. He wanted to keep the remaining essence and blood for further research.
" Uhtred, since you're not going to use that move, then try this one of mine." Seeing that Uhtred had no intention of using that move, the Sovereign of Death continued to unleash his offensive methods.
"Watch out!"
The Sovereign of Death even gave a special warning beforehand, and then... a horrifying scene unfolded!
"Hiss hiss hiss--"
The Sovereign of Death maintained its form, controlling its countless roots and vines, which shot towards Uhtred like a rain of arrows!
"This is!" Everyone present was Sovereign- level expert, so they naturally noticed that the countless roots and vines shot out by the Sovereign of Death were not random.
Instead, they are arranged in a special pattern and launch attacks simultaneously.
"Such a strong binding force!" Uhtred was shocked to find that the space around him seemed to freeze for a moment.
Of course, this wasn't a true freeze in space; it just made him feel as if he were stuck in a quagmire, making it much more difficult to move around.
"This move should also affect the soul!" Luo Ao discovered that while countless roots and vines were attacking, countless illusory roots and vines condensed from soul power were also wrapping around Uhtred along a strange trajectory!
This move was a fusion of physical and Soul Attack.
"Boom!" While using the black Overgod of Destruction Spear in his hand to bombard Lilith's physical attack methods, Uhtred also carefully paid attention to her Soul Attack.
Since Lilith has already broken through to the Death Paragon, her Soul Attack methods are probably even more powerful than his, so he must be on guard.
"Brush!"
Under Uhtred's wary gaze—
Suddenly, countless illusory vines and roots enveloped Uhtred's massive body almost instantly.
In the next instant, countless illusory vines and roots immediately contracted—
At the same time, silently.
From the countless illusory vines and roots, countless transparent soul threads shot out instantly, actually penetrating directly into the Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact that Uhtred had created for himself.
"Gurgle~"
That black Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact, like a piece of fruit whose moisture was instantly drained, shriveled up and shattered into a pile of fragments!
The Edicts of Death - Netherworld Drain!
Soul absorption is a fundamental technique of the Edicts of Death. Some Lowgod the Edicts of Death can initially master this technique. The so-called ' Soul Gold Bead ' are actually created through this method.
However, this tactic is generally only used against the weak.
It has significant limitations when dealing with opponents of the same level.
However, the Sovereign of Death's soul is special, and this move of hers is combined with her innate abilities, making it a great threat even to those of the same level!
"What!" Uhtred didn't pay much attention when he discovered that the Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact had shattered instantly.
After all, with their level of strength, destroying a Sovereign Artifact would be easy.
But when the countless illusory vines that had shrunk together unleashed their wild dance once more, probing into the Soul Ocean, he realized he had been careless!
"Hiss hiss hiss~~"
Countless transparent threads emerged from the illusory vines, piercing straight into his Soul Ocean and beginning to frantically absorb them!
"Gurgle, gurgle!"
The immense soul power within his Soul Ocean was being frantically drained away!
"Not good! After she broke through to the Paragon, the effect of her talent ability is completely different from before!" This Lilith, Netherworld Drain, was actually not the first time Uhtred had dealt with it.
However, in their past encounters, Lilith's move was never nearly as terrifying as it is now.
But Uhtred quickly realized the reason.
Lilith's move mainly relied on her unique soul and innate abilities. However, the intensity of her profound Profound Mysteries was somewhat lower, and her Willpower was also weaker than theirs.
Because of its relatively weak foundation, this move, which should have been terrifying, did not demonstrate sufficient power in previous battles.
But Lilith is not the same as before; her foundation is no less than his. If she uses this move again, the effect will naturally be incomparable!
"What! Lord Uhtred has actually been suppressed!"
"This?!"
Even though everyone already knew that the Sovereign of Death Lilith had broken through to the Paragon realm, they still couldn't believe that the Destruction Sovereign Uhtred would be the first to fall into a disadvantageous position.
Faced with Lilith's Netherworld Drain technique, Uhtred dared not delay any longer.
This unique Soul Attack, while not instantly crippling the enemy's soul, is still extremely dangerous.
"Shh~~"
A strange, deep voice suddenly rang out from the mouth of the Destruction Sovereign. At the same time, a huge phantom appeared behind the Destruction Sovereign. The phantom was a terrifyingly long phantom, stretching for tens of thousands of miles. It was a huge, serpentine monster with Black Scale Armor on its soft, winding body and tens of thousands of sharp claws.
It stretches for thousands of miles, possesses tens of thousands of sharp claws, and also tens of thousands of sharp wings.
At first glance, its scales, claws, and wings all resemble black steel.
The monster's head was bald, with two eyes on its forehead; one eye had a white pupil, and the other had a red pupil.
"Lord Uhtred has revealed his true form!" The other Sovereign watched this scene with bated breath.
They knew that the Destruction Sovereign's Divine Ability also affected the soul.
" Uhtred, your Divine Ability can't possibly be effective against me!" Sovereign of Death Lilith was not afraid of Uhtred's move at all. She wasn't afraid of Uhtred's move even when she wasn't at the Paragon stage, let alone now.
"Who said I was going to use it on you?" Uhtred's tone was gloomy, and his indifferent voice startled everyone present.
Divine Ability - Soul Prison!
"He actually used it on himself?" Lilith watched this scene in surprise. Her soul power had already invaded Uhtred's Soul Ocean, so she could clearly see that after the Destruction Sovereign used this innate Divine Ability, countless strands of soul power suddenly burst out from his Soul Ocean!
"Bang bang bang--"
Just as countless blades of grass suddenly sprouted from the soil, Uhtred's strands of soul power actually squeezed out all the soul threads that had invaded her.
Because that Soul Ocean was Uhtred's home turf, after Uhtred used this move on herself, she actually managed to break through her ' Netherworld Drain '.
"Your ' Soul Prison ' can actually be used to save yourself, impressive!" Lilith couldn't help but admire Uhtred.
It is extremely difficult for a divine beast to perfectly combine the profound Profound Mysteries of the Laws it has comprehended with its innate Divine Ability!
But Uhtred can not only be combined for attack, but also to enhance his own soul defense!
This ingenious approach is something she simply couldn't do.
Some divine beasts' Divine Ability can indeed affect themselves, but using offensive Divine Ability on oneself is tantamount to 'self-harm'. It's unknown how much effort Uhtred expended to use an offensive Divine Ability to the extent it just did.
" Uhtred, you've won." The Sovereign of Death retracted the countless roots and vines that had been flying everywhere, and returned to her appearance as a pretty red-haired girl. Her face still carried a joyful expression, showing no sign of frustration.
"It was my carelessness. I didn't expect your original techniques to be so much stronger after you broke through to the Paragon. Luckily, I had specifically studied soul defense beforehand, otherwise I would have almost suffered a major setback this time." Uhtred looked at Lilith, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.
The opponent's move, ' Netherworld Drain,' may not seem fatal, but this attack targets the soul, gradually eroding the enemy's soul power.
As the enemy's soul is weakened, their ability to resist will decrease, and they will die faster!
Moreover, that move was related to the opponent's special soul and innate abilities, and he simply couldn't defend against it using normal methods.
Although he managed to block that attack using his innate Divine Ability, this Divine Ability can only be used for a very short time, and can only be used two or three times in that short period.
"If Lilith kept using this trick to harass me..." Uhtred was so wary of her precisely because he had considered this possibility.
After all, he could only rely on his Divine Ability to block that move, but Lilith's ' Netherworld Drain ' was a move developed by combining her own soul's innate abilities, and it was highly likely that it could be used multiple times in a short period of time.
"Let's call this a draw." Although Sovereign of Death Lilith had conceded defeat, Uhtred insisted on ending the match as a draw.
In the distance, the other Sovereign -level powerhouses watching the battle were somewhat surprised after hearing the results announced by both sides.
"Lord Uhtred, what other tricks are you holding back? Why did you take the initiative to declare a draw?" Many veteran Sovereign were puzzled by this.
With the occurrence of ' Space-Time Chaos ', they did not believe that the Sovereign of Death could withstand it.
However, since Uhtred himself doesn't intend to use this tactic, they can't force him to.
"However, the strength of the Sovereign of Death has indeed increased a lot..." Although the entire battle was swift and short, it was enough to make the other Sovereign- level powerhouses present feel the tense and exciting atmosphere.
