Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy-Chapter 789 Kyle the Shadow Immortal

"C-captain? Is that still you?" One of the members of the Order of the Evanescent Vessels asked.

"Can you still recognize us?" Someone from the 13th Squad asked, and she was Lesley's friend. She was worried that Lesley's soul was already gone and the Death God's soul gained full control over her friend's body.

However, Lesley didn't seem to hear their words as she focused on her newfound power. She felt incredibly strong and she knew that her current Spell Models would not be able to show her real might.

Although she had incredible Fusion Spells, she knew that she would be able to release stronger Spells…

'I have to learn more Forbidden Dark Arts or my strength will be wasted…' Lesley thought as she confirmed that the Death God's Spirit had truly become hers!

Instead of being consumed by the Death God, she was able to reverse it and gain control of the Death God's power!

There was also a faint Divinity in her body that she easily recognized after fighting against Kyle…

"Right… I guess we will be meeting soon…" Lesley muttered to herself after recalling the Shadow Immortal's identity.

The air hummed with tension as the shadowed chamber became filled with Lesley's dark aura…

"Hahaha…" Lesley laughed at this thought.

This scared the Dark Magicians but Lesley looked at them with an assuring gaze.

"I'm fine… I actually benefited from that attack just now."

Lesley, her form now suffused with the dark power of the?Death God, felt a surge of exhilaration and power, unlike anything she had ever experienced.

Aside from that, the power of the Sin of Pride?that coursed through her veins mingled with the?Death God's malevolent energy, fueling her with a strange yet formidable power within her body.

With a plan forming in her crimson eyes, Lesley turned to face the Dark Magicians that had just arrived.

They were the Captains of other Squads and Elders of various Dark Arts Faction families.

Her voice was laced with an eerie echo as she spoke, "The?Shadow Immortal?will regret the day he crossed paths with me. With the power of the?Death God?at my command, I will be bringing him down… Please relay this information to the Patriarchs…"

Although Lesley was already a lot stronger than before, she still respected the Patriarchs of the Dark Arts Faction. Because of that, she wanted to inform them about her plan and hoped that they would be helping her.

After all, she knew that the Patriarchs possessed the power to drain the Shadow Immortal's Divinity. They needed Kyle's Divinity in order to help the Patriarchs, who were Half-Immortals, become True Immortal!

This was the perfect chance for them to attain their dreams, and she was planning to help them achieve that state!

***

In the area at the third barrier of Kyle's castle…

Boom! Boom!

As the forest trembled and the mountains quaked under the force of the True Immortal's battle against?Jin,?Giorgi, and?Bael, the third barrier not too far from?Kyle's castle shook as it bore witness to the cataclysmic clash of powers.

"Hahaha! This is amazing…" Bael, no longer concealing his true nature as the Demon Lord, unleashed a torrent of dark energy that rents the very fabric of reality.

It happened after Jin?and?Giorgi were thrown back by a powerful spell that the second Immortal had sent to them. The two crashed to the earth with a resounding impact, creating a small crater where they landed.

After gasping for breath, they exchanged a glance with gritted teeth as they prepared to face the challenge that was about to come. They didn't care about the pain at all since they were worried that the Shadow Immortal would notice their identities as Time Manipulators.

"So you're indeed a demon… You hid it really well." The Immortal spoke, still unaware that he was the Demon Lord's Avatar himself.

The Immortal had never encountered the Demon Lord, so it was quite difficult to differentiate the Demon Saints and the Demon Lord himself.

Bael, his laughter echoing through the battlefield like a harbinger of doom, fixed his gaze upon the blond Immortal with a malevolent gleam in his eyes.

"Haha… I'm not finished yet."

With a sinister grin, he made a dramatic gesture, shattering one of his five rings with a resounding crash that reverberated through the shattered landscape.

The Immortal frowned after seeing this. Magic Artifacts that needed to be shattered weren't unusual. There were many one-

time-use Artifacts even in Shane's castle.

However, the ring that the Demon had destroyed felt completely different.

"Limiter?" The two Immortals said at the same time, realizing the problem that had surfaced.

Bael smiled after hearing this, the Immortals were right. It was indeed one of his limiters! Even if he was only an Avatar, he was already extremely strong after conquering several Realms!

"You're right!"

As the limiter shattered, it too a few more seconds beforeBael's trueDemonic Aurawas unleashed in a swirling maelstrom of dark energy that cloaked him in an aura of malevolence and power.

This time, the True Immortals already had some guesses.

"So it wasn't the first rank Demon Saint… We're actually facing the Demon Lord himself…"

"No… It's the Avatar of the Demon Lord, to be exact."

The air crackled with the palpable weight of his demonic presence, sending shivers down the spines of all who beheld him.

With a flick of his wrist,Baelinvoked the first of his Demonic Spells, known asShadowbind.

Dark tendrils of energy coalesced around the True Immortal, binding him in place and sapping his strength with each passing moment.

The True Immortal struggled against the inky chains that ensnared him, but to no avail, as the shadows held him fast.

"Mhmm? That's weird…" Bael muttered as he realized that he was unable to really sap their energy. It was as if something was stopping him. Nonetheless, it doesn't change the fact that he was able to bind one of the Immortals.

Next,Baelturned to the other Immortal and unleashedHellfire Fury, a Demonic Spell that summoned infernal flames to rain down upon the True Immortal with intense flame!

The red and black flames danced and flickered with an unholy light, engulfing the battlefield in an inferno of dark energy that threatened to consume all in its path.

The other True Immortal could only focus on defense as he still needed to gather enough Divinity… He needed time to do that!

As the other True Immortal fought to break free from the shadowy bonds and the relentless assault of hellfire,Bael's laughter rang out like a sinister nightmare, his eyes gleaming with dark delight at the chaos he had wrought.

Nonetheless, he wasn't finished yet. He could already feel the Shadow Immortal's movement from the castle, and it would not be long before he gets here.

He wanted to at least kill one of the True Immortals here before he arrived!

'I'll trust that those two Time Manipulators would also act once I injure the Shadow Immortal.' Bael mused for a moment as he glanced at the two Time Manipulators in the corner of his eyes.

He knew the limit of his strength even if he released all the limiters in his body. After all, the body he was using would be the one to collapse first if he really released all his limiters.

At most, he body could handle three limiters to be released and if he did the fourth one, his body would probably last for about 20 seconds. He would probably fail to get the Divine Extraction from the Shadow Immortal with that limited time…

'Well, that is if the Shadow Immortal is the one truly possessing it.' Bael thought as he started another chant.

With each word and gesture, he would release a series of Demonic Arts that tested the limits of the True Immortal's endurance!

AsBael, the Demon Lord, prepared to deliver the final blow to the boundTrue Immortal, a sudden shift in the air alarmed him.

In a split second, he realized what was happening. It signaled the arrival ofKyle, the Shadow Immortal. With a burst of speed that defied comprehension,Kylematerialized behindBaelin a flash of shadow and light, his clenched fist crackling with pure Holy Energy.

BeforeBaelcould react,Kyle's fist connected with a resounding impact, sending shockwaves of radiant energy coursing through the Demon Lord's form.

His punch was filled with the power of the Holy Smite!

Boom!

The onslaught of Holy Energy seared throughBael's dark aura, causing him to stagger and reel from the unexpected strike.

With wrath forming in his eyes,Kyleunleashed the full force of his power, channeling the divine energy of hisCelestial Artsinto a spell known asDivine Lightning. A blinding burst of holy light erupted from the sky, engulfingBaelin a sparkling wave of purifying and lethal energy that seared his demonic flesh and scorched his dark essence!
