Mixed Blessing System



After using all of his EVF points to recover from his injuries, Lothur immediately flew toward the fleeing demons.

These were four 5th-stage demons, all from the highest hierarchy. If they formed Soul Bones, they would be more valuable than the bones Lothur could get by killing one or two of the fleeing humans.

Unable to pursue all of his enemies as they retreated from the battlefield, Lothur decided to follow these creatures, flying with his Darkness Scythe in his hands.

He had a terrible look, furious at what had just happened.

That Diamond-grade Soul Bone was simply too valuable to him!

Everyone who had participated in the previous battle was exhausted and would be taking serious risks if they stayed behind to try to kill this hybrid.

If only they had the strength to threaten Lothur, they would have chosen to stay and fight, even if it was too risky. But weakened to the point where they could not overcome his mighty defenses, there was no way these people could stay near him.

They had to retreat to recuperate or risk death and help the world's most hideous creature grow stronger.

But even though they could not accomplish their goal of killing the two hybrids, these experts made sure that one hybrid would not absorb the bone of the other. This was a victory even for the demons.

Therefore, the four of them were currently trying to escape the area without looking back. But there was no way they could do that without realizing that Lothur was getting closer and closer to them!

Using his EVF points, Lothur felt much less exhausted than these creatures. After only 10 minutes of chasing, he caught up with them and immediately attacked the strongest in his path, bringing the Darkness Scythe down on his opponent's chest.

"Damned hybrid! I'll kill you!" The demon screamed as he felt the weapon blade approach his chest.

He subtly dodged, but even though he escaped Lothur's killing blow, the demon saw the darkness around the weapon escape it and reach his body.

After seeing this, another demon jumped at Lothur, using his special ability to manipulate various metallic objects, sending them flying at his target like a rain of spears.

Lothur simply spun his weapon, creating a sort of rotating shield before him.

As these elemental attacks hit Lothur's weapon, they immediately melted and disappeared.

Gravity!

Lothur activated his ability and immediately drew the demon towards him, causing a certain fear in the surrounding area.

When Lothur drew that body and spun the Darkness Scythe, a water wheel of darkness appeared next to him, along with a dark river.

But when he activated the Darkness Scythe for the first time after reaching the 5th stage, Lothur suddenly realized something different and focused on that sensation.

'As expected... You can only use all the powers from anything if you have a power equal to or higher than the item's.' He smiled as he felt an attractive effect from those demons and the River of Souls.

The River of Souls had an additional function, but it could only be activated with the power of a 5th-stage cultivator.

It could devour the darkness in the domain!

Darkness was behind the terrifying nature of demons, and something that destroyed it was the worst enemy of these creatures!

Sensing the River of Souls, they all trembled with fear, judging they should return to their escape. Unfortunately, the pressure of Gravity and the pull of the power of the Darkness Scythe prevented them from doing so!

"Wretch!" One of the creatures shouted as he charged at Lothur, realizing that this was their only option now.

Either they killed the user of the Darkness Scythe, or they would die!

But as one of the two level 22 demons flew closer and closer to the water wheel of the River of Souls, Lothur activated his Decomposition skill.

When his opponent's attack hit him before he could do any harm to Lothur, part of the demon turned to dust, and that level 23 demon howled in pain as he felt part of his body being destroyed.

Unlike what normally happened to demons who lost body parts without having their base element erased, this creature could not regenerate the part of his body that Lothur had decomposed!

The Decomposition was special. It was designed for maximum destruction, and there was nothing that could not be destroyed by this ability as long as it was within Lothur's limits.

Faced with a level 23 demon that wasn't even 50% stronger than him, Lothur seriously injured this opponent without even trying!

However, seeing the opportunity to have this level 23 creature so close to him, Lothur did not miss the opportunity to combine Mortal Aura, Black Flames, and Darkness Scythe.

By combining them to attack the creature's body, he struck one of the demon's shoulders with the sharp tip of his blade.

The creature had managed to avoid the worst, but he was still hit and felt Lothur's darkness enter his body.

Little did this demon know that one of the abilities of the Darkness Scythe was to corrupt souls, just like the Black Flames.

When the powers of his enemy infiltrated him, this demon felt as if something had taken control of his nervous system and immediately stopped moving of his own volition, paralyzed.

Unfortunately for Lothur, this being's will was so strong that he could not fully corrupt the demon to use against the other demons. But paralyzed, this demon was finished.

Realizing it would be worthless as his temporary ally, Lothur leaped into the air and kicked the creature hard in the stomach, sending the demon hurtling toward the River of Souls.

With this move, he sent the first two demons tumbling into the wheel of darkness, where once they entered, there was no return for any creature!

As they felt their bodies being corroded by the surrounding darkness, the level 23 demon and a level 22 demon saw the despair of death before them.

They had reached a very high level in the demon world. But in the face of this ability of a Platinum-grade weapon made from the Blood Crystal, they were weak and could only scream in terror in their last moments!

The other two demons tried to do something to stop this, but Lothur also moved against them, interested in taking the four bones these creatures could form.

"You took my Diamond-grade bone. Now give me your Platinum-grade bones!" Lothur said as his eyes glowed dark red.

Unfortunately, he could not use his bloodline ability at the moment and would have to waste the attributes of these demons on the River of Souls.

The River of Souls could even consume the soul remnants of creatures like this, so the Soul Bones that these four would form would not be the same ones that had helped Lothur before.

In the blink of an eye, the first two bones would appear at this place!
