I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means
Chapter 1600 - 886: Demigod Blood Touch (Part 2)
The effect of the specialty [Abyss Hunter] is much simpler and direct.
Before this, Lis had obtained this Abyss Demon specialty, which is similar to the effect of [Abyss Hunter].
However, [Abyss Hunter] can target not only Abyss Demons but also those who have mastered the Abyss Power.
This is much more useful to Lis.
After all, from now on, the number of times Lis will battle with Abyss Evil Gods is expected to be frequent.
As for the milestone [Spider Queen Rose’s Wrath], Lis is not particularly concerned.
Even if he didn’t target the Demigod Beast Clement this time, nor did he oppose Spider Queen Rose, being a World Tree Favored, he naturally stands on the opposite side of Abyss Evil Gods.
In other words, from the very beginning, they are in a deadly enemy relationship.
More fleas on a dog, less itch.
Lis doesn’t care about these so-called hostilities anymore.
The harvest this time is quite fruitful, but Lis still feels some regret.
After all, during this battle, a second Limited Challenge Task emerged.
However, halfway through this Limited Challenge Task, Spider Queen Rose decisively sacrifices that Divine Incarnation to target Lis.
Because of this, the Limited Challenge Task was directly deemed a failure.
Lis is confident of defeating the Divine Incarnation of Spider Queen Rose, and at worst, he can delay until the arrival of Cecilia, the Earth’s Bountiful Giver.
That way, although the reward may be slightly reduced, the specialty gained from Spider Queen Rose will undoubtedly be substantial.
So, for Lis, it’s still somewhat unfortunate.
Moreover, Lis is now entangled with the Abyssal Brand, and won’t likely have a similar opportunity in the short term.
In the following time, most of Lis’s efforts must be focused on combating the Abyssal Brand.
This is also the big trouble that Spider Queen Rose has brought to Lis.
Until this Abyssal Brand is completely resolved, Lis does not intend to appear on the front line against the Abyss again.
This is also the aim of Spider Queen Rose.
Lis is also not too worried about the confrontation between the Church of the Gods and the Endless Abyss.
Although the current situation is tense, the death of the Demigod Vampire Clement will certainly slow the Abyss’s assault on the Underground City in the short term.
Nurturing Demigod Beasts across worlds is a great cost for Abyss Evil Gods.
In the short term, the confrontation between both sides will definitely ease a bit.
During this time gained, the Church of the Gods should prepare adequately to respond.
Thus, Lis plans to become a hands-off shopkeeper and address his personal trouble.
Due to the disparity in ranks, Lis’s current strength is still unable to resolve the power within the Abyssal Brand.
It’s unlikely that even the Gods can effectively solve it.
Aside from relying on his own strength and slowly draining the Abyssal Brand over a long period, Lis has two other methods.
One is to pray to the World Tree Yggdrasil, seeking the power to release him from the Abyssal Brand.
The other method is for Lis to seek an approach starting from Abyss Power.
If he can master Abyss Power, it should provide some assistance in overcoming his current predicament.
Thinking of this, Lis couldn’t help but sigh.
He truly hadn’t anticipated this situation to occur.
Even using the special ability of the Life Faith Incarnation is of no avail now.
Lis does not want to pay the price of soul loss.
At that moment, Lis suddenly thought of something.
He took out a crimson heart, pulsating slowly in his hand.
Originating from Clement, the heart felt slightly warm to the touch.
Lis could feel an immensely powerful Power of Blood from this heart.
This should be the essence of the Demigod Vampire Clement’s Power of Blood!
However, there’s also an evil Abyss Power within this heart, making it quite troublesome to absorb its Power of Blood.
Given that it is the leftover power of a Demigod Vampire, absorbing this heart would bring considerable benefits to Lis.
But...
Lis extended his hand, and a small space channel appeared before him.
At this moment, a small, delicate white Little Bat, Angela, like a white fluffy ball accidentally thrown out, tumbled from the space channel.
Flapping her wings clumsily in the air, Angela’s previously nimble flight now appeared awkward and comical.
She tried hard to flap her wings, attempting to stabilize her position.
Finally managing to fly shakily upward, like a little sailboat navigating with difficulty through strong winds.
Upon closer inspection, Angela was covered in sticky cream and vibrant fruit jam.
Cream slid down her white fur, while the jam decorated her body like an abstract painting, exuding a rich and sweet aroma, as if she were a moving little dessert.
"What’s going on, what’s going on?"
"What’s happening?"
"Where’s my dessert?"
Angela tilted her head slightly, her little black eyes filled with dissatisfaction, her mouth pouted as if silently protesting something.
Her black little eyes rolled, quickly locking onto Lis standing not far away.
Perhaps blaming Lis, believing he caused all of this.
Hovering in mid-air, she stared at Lis with puffed-up cheeks:
"Lis!"
"It’s my afternoon tea time, I haven’t even eaten much."
"You owe me..."
At this moment, Angela spotted the blood-colored heart held by Lis, and her eyes instantly brightened.
A flash of white shadow, Angela dashed straight to the heart, as if ready to pounce.
But soon, Angela suddenly paused before the blood-colored heart.
Her eyes focused on the twisted, dark patterns swirling over the heart, showing traces of disdain and sorrow.
To Lis, her gaze seemed as though she was looking at dirt marring a dessert.
An inner conflict of not wanting to touch it, yet regretting it deeply.
Seeing Angela’s hesitation, Lis couldn’t help but chuckle.
Ruffling Angela’s soft body and plump belly, Lis spoke with a smile:
"What’s the matter, do you like this gift?"
As a Demigod Vampire, Clement’s blood essence would certainly aid Angela significantly.
However, as it stands, absorbing it would not be an easy task for Angela.
If she eats it directly, odds are she’ll have an upset stomach.
Previously, Lis could resolve the Abyss Power within this heart, though troublesome, it was feasible.
Now, Lis could not access the Demigod Powers temporarily, thus facing the remnant heart of the Demigod was rather complicated.
"I can sense a stronger Power of Blood within, but something really disgusting mixed in."
Angela lay obediently in Lis’s hand, conflictedly eyeing the blood-colored heart, her two small paws rubbing together.
"What do you think? Can you handle it?"
"If you can, I’ll give it to you. Otherwise, wait until I’ve recuperated, and I’ll resolve the Abyss Power first, then give it to you."
Lis looked at Angela, speaking with a grin.
"Lis, are you hurt?"
Angela, hearing this, quickly turned her gaze to Lis.
No longer concerned about the heart at all?
She noticed the conspicuous golden arm guard on Lis’s right arm, seemingly suppressing something underneath.
Angela could sense a faint yet intensely powerful and fearsome aura, making her feel a little intimidated and frightened.
For a power to instill fear into a Legendary Strongman like her, could it possibly be a Divine power?
Why then does Lis seem unaffected?
Angela twisted her body, flying up from Lis’s hand, transforming into a beautiful white-haired girl in front of him.
"Lis, it seems you have a big trouble on your hands."
"I think it’s related to Vampire power, is everything really alright?"
"Would you like to come back with me to see the Ancestor Lord, surely they would know what to do!"
Hearing Angela’s words, Lis was slightly taken aback.
This Abyssal Brand is related to Vampires?
To meet the Blood Race Ancestor Cain?
