Chapter 633: Abyssal Lord Amps
“The battle below is up to you. I can only assist from the sidelines to avoid attracting too much attention from the Abyssal Will!”
Facing the three powerful undead creatures gathered outside the fortress, Donald said to Amps in a highly irresponsible manner.
Amps gave a bitter smile, then spread his massive demonic wings and flew out of the hall, ascending above the fortress. He didn’t want this fortress to be destroyed right after he took control of this plane—although it was merely a temporary base that would eventually be demolished to rebuild his own demonic castle. Yet, as a demon lord at the level of a true god, it would be embarrassing if he allowed a few demi-god undead creatures to ruin his dwelling!
“Dorison’s bone-brutes, let the great Demon Lord Amps show you what true power is…”
In his own plane, Amps expanded his Magic Forging Domain by at least three times, instantly enveloping the three undead creatures. The Magic Forging Domain, resembling an endless darkness, swept in with flames of magic, forcing the three demi-god undead creatures to combine their own demi-god domains to resist together.
“Abyssal Magic Forging! This is the realm that the great Lord Dorison will soon rule. Those who resist will meet certain death!”
The negative energy domain of the demi-god lich, the bloodthirsty domain of the vampire lord, and the decaying domain of the flying tyrant combined to form a realm comparable to that of a lower-tier god. After all, these three were powerful undead creatures surpassing ordinary demi-gods, and the forces within their death domains were renowned for their aggressive nature.
Amps took out his exclusive divine weapon, the Demon Slaying Sword, and said disdainfully, “If Dorison really had the ability, he would have already seized Yenogu’s realm. There’s no need for him to act as a pawn—after all, he’s nothing but Oscar’s tool!”
The three undead creatures, who knew something about these secrets, were shaken inwardly but remained unaffected, retaining their combat strength. They stopped wasting words and joined the fight alongside Amps.
Only by gaining a deep understanding of the essence of laws could one develop a trace of divinity. In other words, only beings with divinity could truly master certain rules.
The so-called “legends’ domains” were nothing but pseudo-domains, as they lacked the ability to fully control the rules. They could only rely on the principles of laws they understood, combined with the power of the natural environment, to create incomplete domain forces. They couldn’t, like true gods, establish divine kingdoms and flexibly control the power of their own domains.
This is also why the avatars of true gods and demons, even if at just the legendary level, are still far stronger than ordinary legendary warriors. At the demi-god level, the divine domain differs from that of true gods and demon lords only in terms of divine authority and the power boost from a virtual divine essence. However, despite the combined strength of these three demi-god immortals, when faced with the newly risen demon lord Amps along with the Sword of Demon Slaying that had already reached the level of an elementary divine artifact, they could only take a defensive stance and endure attacks, being no match at all for the powerful demon lord wielding such an artifact. Seeing the battle turning against them, the demi-god lich, who served as the main strategist among the three demi-god immortals, immediately changed his combat tactics. While the other two demi-god immortals were temporarily holding off the powerful Abyssal Demon Forger, the lich seized the opportunity to cast a legendary spell—Deep Freeze. An extraordinarily powerful wave of cold energy erupted in the darkness, and the force of the legendary spell instantly created a gap in the Demon Forger’s domain. Although the domain’s powerful forces quickly repaired this gap, the lich was still able to teleport out instantly. After escaping, the lich immediately prepared his next powerful spell. “Stop!” A voice rang out below the fortress. A figure wrapped in a gray cloak appeared not far behind the demi-god lich, unleashing the immense pressure of a true god, which instantly interrupted the lich’s next legendary spell. “A true god…” As the aura of this being was released, all the powerful warriors present realized Donald’s identity. At the same time, an energy explosion and backlash caused by the powerful legendary spell erupted around the demi-god lich. This was because he was a demi-god immortal. If it were humans or other demi-god warriors, they would likely have been severely injured by the backlash. With the spellcasting process interrupted, the demi-god lich, whose wisdom far surpassed that of ordinary immortals, quickly realized it was impossible to defeat his opponent with the spells he had prepared. Especially since the enemy also had a powerful true god as an ally—even if it was just a demi-god avatar, it was beyond their capacity to resist. If it weren’t for the Abyssal Demon Forger, those three might have had a chance of winning with just one demi-god avatar and no divine artifacts, but now they couldn’t even deal with that one demon lord, let alone add another demi-god avatar to the equation.
Only instant spells that can be cast in an instant have a chance to work, allowing them to escape successfully. However, even a demigod lich doesn’t have the ability to prepare multiple instant spells at the legendary level for use at critical moments to avoid wasting them. Instead, he had prepared a few special ninth-level spells whose power is comparable to ordinary legendary spells. The demigod lich raised his hand and made a simple gesture, instantly casting a spell. Sensing the fluctuations when the spell was cast, Donald knew it was a ninth-level Wish spell. Although its power might not be very great, under the magical effects of the Fate domain, there was a certain chance that something undesirable could happen. To prevent this, Donald immediately cast a spell from the same domain to counteract the Wish spell. The demigod lich’s target wasn’t the true god incarnation wrapped in a cloak, but the Abyssal Demon Slayer who was fighting against his two companions. Miracle Spell was a divine version of the Wish spell, capable of transforming magic, with basically the same effects! As the true god, Donald could draw power from his true form at any time to cast divine spells below the ninth level. Compared to spells of the same level, this method saved more energy and prevented the incarnation from being unable to return due to excessive power consumption. The instant Miracle Spell was cast, it counteracted the effects of the opponent’s Wish spell, no matter what effect the demigod lich wanted to impose on Amps. After doing this, Donald immediately withdrew from the battlefield. He wouldn’t directly engage in combat but would only intervene when the demigod lich tried something else, so as to avoid having to kill one of the enemies and being struck by the Abyssal Will. With Donald’s interference from the outside and Amps’ strong strength along with a convenient weapon, he quickly killed the weakest of the three— the vampire lord. Thanks to the special properties of the Demon-Slaying Sword, the demigod vampire’s abilities, such as his blood-transforming clones that he relied on to survive and fight, became completely useless. If cut in two by an ordinary weapon, the demigod vampire lord could reassemble his body at any time, suffering only a slight loss of power. But when cut in two by the Demon-Slaying Sword, the lower half of his body instantly lost all strength and vitality. Only the upper half containing his heart and brain continued to struggle, but soon it was finished off by another strike from the Abyssal Demon Slayer— that cunning demigod vampire was utterly defeated!
