BXBX NOVEL Chapter 261 - Ready To Bet Her Life
If his soul was in its peak condition, then he would not have needed to move to defeat the woman. He could have taken control over the entire magmatic chamber and used it to crush Sophia, but right now taking control of the lava around him was the best he could do.
The Neo-Demon did not rush to her opponent. Even if he had lost most of his power, he was once a Rank 4 life form and his strength was too great for Sophia to face him in a battlefield that increased his might and weakened her\'s.
Sophia had done many preparations for this battle and the environment was clearly taken into consideration. She took ten black pills from her space ring and allowed them to melt inside the lava. Immediately after that, the lava around Sophia started to gain a black color while foul and wicked energy changed it.
The moment that happened the eyes of fire above the egg widened and they released a great force that attempted to contain that energy from expanding but before it could do anything one hundred pills that were in the periphery of the magmatic chamber exploded and formed a black gas that fused into the lava next to them.
A chain reaction occurred inside the magmatic chamber and in a matter of seconds, the tons of lava that it contained were transformed into a vicious and putrefactive substance.
The area in more than one hundred of kilometers around the duo had transformed into a toxic hellscape that could rot the body of a Novice Rank 3 life form with ease.
The individual inside the egg could no longer control the lava around him after it was affected by that foul energy and he felt how it became poisonous for him. Escaping this place without a fight was not an option since the substance hindered his movement and running without incapacitating his opponent first would leave him open to her\'s attack, which would result in grave injuries.
Immense wrath could be seen in the fiery eyes. He had stayed in this place for many years now and had been very careful but this woman, who was not even a Peak Rank 3 life form, had ruined his plan.
"AWW!" A bird cry full of hate was heard from inside the egg before it was consumed by black flames and it transformed into a four hundred meters tall Abyssfire Demon Phoenix.
Sophia\'s eyes narrowed when this demonic being appeared. This was the bloodline she desired. Sophia had fought hordes of demons and risked her life just for the chance to obtain it.
She knew that Emperor bloodlines would be bought from the Scientia Kingdom and Zatiel would allow her to pick whichever she wanted, but none of them would be able to compare with her Styx Dragon Bloodline and they may even harm her bloodline instead of helping it if she fuses with them.
After a lot of research, she became interested in this Abyssfire Demon Phoenix bloodline. Not only was it at the same level that the Styx Dragon Bloodline, but if her hypothesis is correct and her plan is successful, then the combination between the two of them would bring something exponentially more powerful than the mere sum of the two.
After the battle with Tomas, the demon had endured deadly wounds, and even though he had managed to escape from the Angelic Paragon, it was a matter of time before he would succumb to his injuries. That was the main reason he was able to hide from the Heavenly race since there was no point in wasting time in hunting an enemy that would die eventually. Not to mention that they needed to focus on the much bigger threat that was the Magi invader force.
What they did not know was that thanks to his bloodline, the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix had access to all kinds of supernatural abilities. His ashes reached this volcano and after using the power of his True Soul\'s to command demons to guard this area, he activated the ability called From Ashes to Flesh.
This ability allowed him to reconstruct his body. After enough time his body would have regained his original power. Although his soul had fallen to Rank 3, with a body at Rank 4, there was still a possibility for him to once again become a true Rank 4 life form.
There was an even more amazing ability that the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix could have used that would not only have completely healed his body and soul but also increase the power of his bloodline and his affinity with the laws. However, if the demon activated that ability, there was a great possibility of failure and that would mean his soul being destroyed, so the demon did not dare to attempt it.
Sophia knew how dangerous her enemy was and the multicolored flame in her eyes burned brighter. His enemy\'s body had not reached Rank 4 yet, but it was still more powerful than the one of a Peak Rank 3 demon. Luckily for her, the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix soul was still wounded and her attacks had the ability to target the enemy\'s consciousness.
The Neo-Demon did not hesitate an activated Blood Essence Combustion making a black flame appear on her chest and then she took a red pill from her ring and swallowed it. Sophia\'s bloodline started to burn and she felt as if a stream of fire was running through her veins.
The pill she had just consumed filled her body with an immense amount of power but there was a severe side effect. That power was obtained by burning part of her bloodline, so after the effect of the pill is over, her bloodline will start to decline and with time it may even decline into a King bloodline.
Despite that, there was no wavering in Sophia\'s eyes. She was willing to stake her life on this battle. As long as she gets the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix bloodline, any damage would be repaired and she was ready to die if her plan failed.
As the power inside Sophia\'s body grew, the Neo-Demon\'s dragon roar filled the entire magmatic chamber.
"ROOOAAARRR!" A sphere of Styx water hundreds of meters in diameter appeared around Sophia\'s body.
That sphere appeared to contain countless tsunamis moving in every direction and carrying a power that could destroy entire cities. But in an instant, the sphere started to morph and its temperature fell.
In a moment, an Ice Styx Dragon appeared inside the magmatic chamber. The head of the creature was immense. Its teeth secreted a filthy liquid full of diseases and curses. Its body was six hundred meters long, there were two massive wings made of thousands of ice spears on its back and its tail was filled with spikes that glowed with chaotic energy.
Even the poisonous substance around the massive body of the Ice Styx Dragon started to rot due to the lethal energy the creature expelled.
Sophia\'s figure could not be seen inside the body of the creature but the eyes of the dragon glowed with intelligence and killing intent as it stared menacingly at its opponent.
The killing intent in the eyes of the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix was not any less than the one of the Neo-Demon.
There was no need for words between the duo since they could clearly feel the desire in the eyes of the other.
"AWW!" The black fire around the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix raged and released an immense power while the demon waved his wings and propelled his immense body at the Ice Styx Dragon.
"ROOOAAARRR!" Sophia did not wait and along with her roar the lethal energy around the Ice Styx Dragon grew stronger and she flashed to the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix with a speed that one would think impossible for such a massive creature.
