Armipotent

Allan smiled widely, telling Alton he had been right from the start. Crystal was just an illusion, or else there would be a body behind after killing her.

Alton furrowed his brow and pulled Allan over as they retreated a few meters away. No longer after that, a fireball landed on the spot where they just stood now.

Boom!

Allan turned around and saw the Flame Queen illusion floated to the air as the temperature around them rose. The current situation caused him to recall the past memories where the Flame Queen was angry at them. 'No, the one in front of me is just an illusion. They are already dead!'

Recalling this made Allan angrier at Tang Shaoyang for using such a dirty trick to face them. "You are not getting away with this!" He gritted his teeth as his face twisted in anger.

"You are not getting away with this, Allan!" Rosalie's angry voice echoed as her red hair was ablaze in flame, and her red eyes were blazing like a flame. "You have gone too far!"

A giant fireball formed in the sky like a mini sun as the tree around them started to get burned up by the fire. The temperature kept rising drastically.

Ashley swept the sweat around her forehead and looked at the mini sun that kept getting bigger and bigger. She thought they should stop this or else they would get affected by the mini sun as well. However, Tang Shaoyang stayed still on the spot without saying anything. She assumed they were safe. 'But where did Grandma go? Did she die?'

Ashley did not have a great attachment to Grandma she had just met. She did not scream outwardly, but she was genuinely concerned when her Grandma disappeared. She was the only family she had, after all.

'Are you okay, Crystal?' Of course, the spirit could not die unless they were sacrificed with [Spirit Sacrifice]. Crystal returned to The Spiritual World after Allan killed her.

—I am fine. You should stop Rosalie! I just realized that we are weaker now because our power is stagnant once we become spirits. However, the living keeps getting stronger, and we can't match the current them.

'You are not fine at all.' Tang Shaoyang shook his head, and it was clear from her voice that Crystal was weakened. He did not stop Rosalie; instead, he summoned Zara, Bronson, and Zaneos.

"How long would she be in a weakened state?" He asked Zara.

"Around twelve hours. Don't worry, Crystal will return to her original state after twelve hours." Zara explained. There was a penalty for the spirit who died, and they would be weakened for twelve hours. The penalty was quite significant, and the spirit would lose fifteen percent of their powers in that twelve hours.

"I see…." Tang Shaoyang nodded his head and looked at the mini sun that had reached the maximum size. "Get prepared for the battle. I will face these two old men, and you guys watch over their force."

After saying that, Tang Shaoyang glanced at his right shoulder. The Golden Dragon, Wrath, was still sleeping soundly on his shoulder despite the rising temperature. He flicked the Golden Dragon's forehead.

"Ouch! Who dares to wake up this Mighty Dragon!" Wrath flew over in his mini size and looked at the culprit, and his arrogance quickly disappeared as he lowered his head. "Do you need something from me, My Lord?"

"Get ready for another battle!" Tang Shaoyang pointed at the opposing force with his chin and glanced at his left shoulder. The black cat was nowhere to be seen as always. Greed must be sensitive to war like this and made his move before he ordered him to.

Fwoosh!

Wrath returned to his original size. The Golden Dragon immediately attracted the opposing party's attention. The mini sun and now the giant dragon. At the same time, Aerelion the Infernal Wyvern descended from the sky, hovering next to the mini sun.

Alton's face turned grim as he saw the opposing force. Angel and dragon, those two creatures, were a myth and something that only existed in the book. This was the first time he saw the real ones.

"I think I know now why The Tyrant can easily subdue these tribes," Alton muttered in a low voice. "But why did they use this kind of cheap trick if they are this strong?" He did not understand why the man used Queen Rosalie and Crystal to face them.

Fwoosh!

At this moment, Queen Rosalie's illusion threw the mini sun toward him and Allan. "Get ready for the battle, Allan." Even in the face of the mini sun, Alton calmly stepped forward and stood in front of Allan.

[Pyrolis Scutum]

Alton's silver shield turned red, and flame spread out from the shield, forming a colossal shield, protecting his people behind him. The mini sun clashed with the flame shield and exploded, and the flame spread out toward Tang Shaoyang's direction. Alton used Queen Rosalie's fire to attack Tang Shaoyang, which was clever of Alton.

Tang Shaoyang pierced his Dragon Destroyer to the ground and extended his right hand toward the fire, using elemental manipulation to control the fire. He easily controlled the wildfire, and he directed the fire to the sky. He gripped the battle-ax and approached the two old men.

"You don't deserve to use that skill after what you did to Crystal! Ungrateful Bastards!" At this point, The Flame Empress realized the gap between her and her loyal knights. Her knights had gotten a lot stronger while she was stagnant. Even after The Spirit Blessing, she was still not a match against the knights she had raised.

"That's enough, Rosalie. I have given you enough time, and it's my turn now. I will do my best not to kill them, but you can't blame me if I accidentally kill them." Tang Shaoyang approached the two old knights. In each of his steps, he left a lightning trail.

'Let's try [Attribute Shift]' Tang Shaoyang opened his window status and realized that his Magic Power had reached Ancient Rank by integrating with Zowen.
