"Having used the Sovereign’s Might, my speed has increased at least tenfold! The Sovereign’s Might is comparable to the Three-Element Fused Divine Power; this is my current maximum speed."
With his speed advantage, Andrew's confidence soared. Deep down, he valued Youyindier highly. This man was different from Digelunsi; he was the Bloodridge Army commander chosen by the Sovereign, not Sovereign's Emissary, but more Sovereign's Emissary. How could he gain the Sovereign's favor without extraordinary strength?
More importantly, this person possesses Material Defense Sovereign Artifact, making his material defense invincible. Even with the Purple Sword, he cannot break through it. To defeat him, he can only rely on Soul Attack. However, Soul Attack are not his forte.
"He's a formidable opponent!" Andrew thought to himself.
Not only was Andrew cautious, but Youyindier was as well.
In his view, Andrew's physical body was formidable in defense, Andrew possessed Offensive Sovereign Artifact. If there was any weakness, it would only be in his soul. However, Youyindier was not skilled in Soul Attack either, and neither Lightning Element Mysteries Profound Mysteries of Destruction were particularly effective in Soul Attack.
It's fair to say that Youyindier has an even lower chance of winning against Andrew.
"What a blunder! Not only is Digelunsi dead, but we've also made an enemy of such a formidable opponent. It's a huge loss!" Youyindier gave a bitter smile, somewhat regretting his impulsive action. He was too furious at the moment Digelunsi died. In all his years as the commander of the Bloodridge Army, no one had ever shown him such disrespect. Even the Asura Prefect avoided him.
Moreover, Andrew shattered his dream of receiving a reward from Sovereign, so it's no wonder Youyindier was furious.
However, having already made his move, Youyindier decided to set aside his concerns. He did have reservations about Andrew, but that didn't mean he was afraid of him.
Now that things have come to this point, neither side is willing to give up.
"Call out!"
Andrew, moving at lightning speed, seemed to vanish into thin air. However, the purple sword energy surrounded Youyindier from all directions, forming a giant lotus flower centered on Youyindier. At the heart of the lotus, Youyindier faced immense pressure.
"Drink!"
Youyindier roared, and a red, hemispherical defensive shield appeared around his body. The next moment, sword energy struck the shield, making "clang" sounds. The sharp sword energy came one after another without stopping, but the shield was extremely resilient and remained unbroken.
Seeing this, Andrew knew that it was impossible to break through the opponent's Sovereign Artifact's defense with sword energy. He paused, appeared in front of Youyindier, and the purple sword trembled slightly, with a series of indescribable and eerie whispers ringing out.
The purple sword Vibration Vibration.
"He's not afraid of physical attacks, but what about Soul Attack? I don't believe the opponent has two Defensive Sovereign Artifact! If I conceal Soul Attack within this sword, even Youyindier wouldn't expect it, would he?"
Andrew's mind lit up as he thought of his innate Innate Divine Ability. His " Dragon Roar " contained both physical and Soul Attack. Suddenly, he had a realization, as if something Shattering.
At this moment, the High-level Profound Mystery of Fire Element Mysteries, " Soul Attack," actually found a point of convergence with "Explosion," and the two began to merge!
Since becoming Highgod, Andrew has focused on Mysteries three different Laws, but the fusion of the Mysteries of his three divine Divine Clone has made little progress. He has only fused two of the Lightning Element and Fire Element, and all three of the Water Element. After finding the point of convergence between " Profound Mystery of Roundness " and " Shattering " and "explosion," Andrew has temporarily abandoned the cultivation of the same Mysteries Laws.
In reality, it wasn't that he didn't want to make progress in this area, but rather that he simply didn't have the time. All things considered, Andrew had only cultivated for a few hundred years.
Who could have imagined that this unexpected battle would lead to such a breakthrough!
Of the three elemental Laws and eighteen profound Mysteries, Andrew's greatest desire was to break through the Fire Element's profound Mysteries, " Soul Attack." Soul Attack differ from physical attacks; they can only be used when one's soul cultivation reaches a certain level and one has a considerable understanding of the soul. Andrew's soul power is sufficient, but because his cultivation time is too short and his understanding of the soul is insufficient, his Soul Attack are not strong enough.
This was something he deeply regretted.
Now things are much better. Once the Fire Element " Soul Attack " is combined with "explosion," Andrew's Soul Attack power immediately increases tenfold, turning his previous weakness into an advantage. Overjoyed, Andrew is confident that even Paragon expert would not dare to underestimate his full-force Soul Attack!
In that brief moment, Youyindier never imagined that Andrew's strength had increased so much!
The purple sword has finally been used!
On the purple sword, two distinct streams of energy flowed: one was azure Fused Divine Power, and the other was a transparent, invisible force. Above Purple Baleful Mountain, Andrew, with a cold and stern face, gently drew his sword. Under the shroud of Divine Power, the purple sword transformed into a giant sword ten feet long.
The greatsword pierced through Youyindier's defensive shield.
The seemingly powerful attack appeared remarkably calm and silent.
The crimson defensive shield rapidly shrank under the attack of the purple sword. In fact, a deep dent appeared in the center of the semi-circular shield, as if it had almost been sliced open by the purple sword. However, the purple sword's offensive was still blocked, and the powerful sword could not advance an inch further.
The Material Defense Sovereign Artifact is indeed powerful, easily blocking Andrew's attack, which used the Sovereign’s Might.
However, Youyindier was not happy at all, because just now, he had felt Andrew's Soul Attack!
A single sword Soul Attack and physical attacks. Youyindier had seen many such attacks, but he had never seen both attacks so powerful.
As for the physical attack, Andrew's sword strike was absolutely unbearable unless one possessed Material Defense Sovereign Artifact. The Soul Attack, even for a peak-level palace lord like Youyindier, was a deadly threat! Left with no other option, Youyindier used the Sovereign’s Might.
"Buzz..."
The black Sovereign’s Might enveloped him, and above the Elemental Sea of Youyindier, a thick black iron curtain blocked the colorless sword energy.
The Sovereign’s Might was like a sturdy castle, firmly protecting Youyindier's soul at its center. Although Andrew's Soul Attack was powerful, it could not harm a lord under the protection of the Sovereign’s Might. Soon, the colorless sword energy was completely dissipated, and the Sovereign’s Might was also greatly depleted.
"This is too strange. Could it be that he held back in his duel with Digelunsi?" Having just recovered from the shock, Youyindier immediately dodged several miles away, recalling Andrew's Soul Attack. He had witnessed Andrew use Soul Attack not long ago, but that attack was far less powerful than this one. This made Youyindier suspicious.
"Wait, Andrew!" The Soul Attack had startled Youyindier, and he dodged into the air, shouting for a stop.
Andrew stopped, not wanting to go too far.
Now both of them are basically clear about each other's strength. When using the Sovereign’s Might, Andrew has the upper hand by relying on Soul Attack, but he does not have an absolute advantage. It can be said that neither of them can do anything to the other in the short term.
Both sides needed a dignified end to the battle that had ended without a result. Moreover, both had paid a price for this battle; aside from everything else, the two drops of Sovereign’s Might alone were enough to make them feel the pinch.
" Digelunsi is dead, so this is the end of it. I can't do anything to you, and you can't do anything to me. Continuing to fight is just a waste of time." Youyindier was furious and unwilling, but he had no other choice at this point.
Andrew thought for a moment. Defeating Youyindier would be easy for him, but killing him would be difficult. As a veteran Asura, who knew how many trump cards the opponent had? Just look at Digelunsi; no Asura was easy to deal with.
Andrew sheathed his purple sword and nodded coldly. To be honest, he felt a little aggrieved; the fight had clearly been started by his opponent. But then Andrew thought about it and felt relieved. In this world, even the supreme Sovereign sometimes had to compromise, and he himself was just a powerful Asura, far from being strong enough.
Youyindier, having gained nothing, quickly left Bloodflame City. Andrew then took over Bloodflame Prefecture, becoming its new lord. The Digelunsi family received the news and soon departed. Andrew ignored them; as a powerful Asura, he naturally maintained Asura dignity. Just as Sovereign wouldn't attack another god without cause, he couldn't lower himself to hunt down those Seven-Star Fiend.
The Emperor Wing Fiend left after Andrew's challenge ended. In order to protect Andrew's family, he did not attend the challenge to watch it, for which Andrew was very grateful.
Standing above Bloodflame City and looking down over the entire city, Andrew felt a sense of peace. After being in the Infernal Realm for so long, he finally had a home.
