Chapter 60: Rescue (Second Update, Seeking Subscriptions)
"Not good!"
Sensing the impending threat, Shelley's Profound Mysteries of Laws surged, and she unleashed a fiery sword energy.
"Boom!"
The scorching sword energy collided with the black and red long spear, erupting in a massive roar. The immense power tore open narrow spatial rifts in the surrounding area.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Shelley's Sovereign Power had yet to dissipate. This strike sent the incoming spear spinning backward.
"Hum!"
A tall man clad in black armor appeared, reaching out to grasp the repelled spear.
Once held by the man, the trembling spear instantly calmed.
The leader of the Hell Scorpions, Douglas Lucas.
"A Seven-star Demon?"
Shelley frowned.
What made Shelley even more uneasy was that behind the man, over a hundred God-level experts were rapidly surrounding them.
"Who might you be? Don't you know this is the Four Divine Beast Family's convoy?"
"Hahahaha, I know you're from the Four Divine Beast Family. If you weren't, I wouldn't bother robbing you."
"Oh?"
Hearing the tall man's words, a trace of unease flashed through Shelley's heart.
These guys mean trouble!
If that's the case—
"Boom!"
Shelley erupted violently. The Sovereign Power she had just used had not fully dispersed. Her body transformed into a red streak of light, and the long sword in her hand swung towards the bandit leader.
"Heh heh..."
Facing Shelley's attack, a drop of Sovereign Power appeared in Douglas Lucas's hand.
The next moment, he integrated this drop of Sovereign Power into his body.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."
"Hahahaha, hahahaha..."
A surge of power radiated from Douglas's body. This incredibly potent strength left Douglas utterly enthralled.
"This is Sovereign Power. This is power..."
A fiery red aura of Sovereign Power emanated from Douglas.
A brutal glint flashed in Douglas's eyes. His figure transformed into a fiery red beam of light, and he thrust the long spear in his hand towards the attacking Shelley.
"Not good!"
Douglas's transformation did not escape Shelley's notice.
She could never have imagined that this attacking bandit would possess Sovereign Power?
"Boom!"
The sword light was shattered by the spear tip, and then the power of the long spear erupted, blasting Shelley backward.
"Pfft..."
Shelley's expression changed drastically, and a mouthful of blood spurted from her lips.
Both had used Sovereign Power, but Shelley was only a Six-star Devil, while Douglas was a Seven-star Demon. The gap in their strength was more than tens of times.
If not for the Sovereign Power still protecting Shelley, she would have been impaled by that spear.
"Hahahaha..."
Douglas laughed maniacally. He felt that he could now slay even those powerful Prefects.
Seeing Shelley recover, Douglas stopped laughing, his killing intent intensifying.
To maintain this powerful state at all times, Sovereign Power was indispensable.
And throughout the Infernal Realm, wasn't the Four Divine Beast Family a prime source for extracting Sovereign Power?
After glancing at Shelley, Douglas shifted his gaze towards the members of the Four Divine Beast Family on the metal lifeform.
Douglas was clear-headed. Shelley's strength was not bad. After using Sovereign Power, even he, in his current state, could not kill her in a short time.
If his Sovereign Power were to run out, he might be the one to die later.
But the people on the metal lifeform were different. The strongest among them was merely a Fire Element High-level God. After using Sovereign Power, he couldn't even defeat Kleiman. What a waste.
At that, Douglas's figure turned into an arc, flying towards the metal lifeform with his spear thrust forward.
"Chii..."
Chris, who was fighting the second-in-command of the bandits, suddenly felt a chill in her chest. She looked down and saw a black and red spear embedded in her chest.
"No..."
Overwhelming fear escaped Chris's lips. The Fire Element Sovereign Power on the spear frantically destroyed her divine body. If it weren't for the Sovereign Power on her body instantly regenerating her divine body, she would have died from that spear thrust.
However, the speed of regeneration was naturally much slower than the speed of destruction.
Of course, the Sovereign Power consumed to regenerate her divine body was far greater than what was consumed during combat. Visibly, the glow of the Sovereign Power on Chris's body was rapidly fading.
"I can't die..."
"Sovereign Power, I still have so much Sovereign Power..."
In her life-or-death terror, Chris took out a drop of Fire Element Sovereign Power from her spatial ring. But before she could absorb it into her body, Douglas suddenly erupted, drew out the black and red spear, and then violently slammed it down.
"Ah!"
Chris let out a scream, her divine sense trembling. The drop of Sovereign Power in front of her was forcibly pulled away by Douglas's divine sense, and then, another spear thrust was made.
"Boom!"
"No..."
Spatial rifts appeared around Chris, slicing her body with wounds.
Soon, the Sovereign Power within Chris was depleted, and her divine body was directly blown apart by Douglas, leaving behind only a red High-level Godhead and a spatial ring.
She forced a drop of blood onto the spatial ring, but it did not successfully recognize her as its master.
Douglas's face darkened: "Damn it, there are other Divine Clones."
Fortunately, he had snatched a drop of Sovereign Power earlier, so it wasn't a complete loss.
"Chris's Fire Element Divine Clone is dead?"
Seeing Chris's Divine Clone perish, Shelley's mind went blank.
"It's over..."
Now, she didn't know how to explain this to her family or Elder Roy.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."
"All of you, die!"
Shelley took out another drop of Fire Element Sovereign Power and integrated it into her body.
"Phoenix Flame Dance!"
She unleashed hundreds of flame phoenixes, which transformed into fiery red beams of light and killed all the bandits surrounding the Metal Life. Then, Shelley rushed directly towards Douglas.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Under Shelley's desperate efforts, Douglas only managed to kill four members of the Four Divine Beast Family before Shelley forced him away from the Metal Life.
"Run..."
Now, only a dozen or so bandits from the Hell Scorpion remained, but Shelley knew that as long as Douglas wasn't dead, they had no chance.
Just now, Douglas had killed four members of the Four Divine Beast Family and taken their spatial rings.
One had to understand that to awaken their bloodlines, these clan members had brought their Divine Clones, their true bodies, with them.
Dead, they were truly dead.
Moreover, what made things even worse was that each clan member had ten drops of Sovereign Power on them. Even if they had used a few drops themselves, the four spatial rings conservatively contained at least thirty more drops of Sovereign Power.
Under these circumstances, Shelley couldn't even guarantee her own survival.
"Damn it!"
Douglas looked at the fleeing Metal Life, his heart bleeding.
That was all Sovereign Power!
Thinking of this, Douglas's gaze towards Shelley, who was intercepting him, became even more ferocious.
"Bitch, you're asking for death!"
...
"No..."
At Lotus Rock Mansion, Roy had just finished testing his strength and walked out of his cultivation room. He suddenly saw the young maidservant's face showing fear, and then she broke down crying.
"Chris, what's wrong?"
"Elder Roy."
Seeing Roy, Chris seemed to have grasped a lifeline. She grabbed Roy's hand and cried out loudly, "Lord Roy, please save me quickly, someone is trying to kill me."
"Hmm?"
Roy was startled, and then his divine sense instantly spread throughout Lotus Rock Island.
However, besides the aura of battle from the Blood Battle Stage, Roy didn't sense any enemies causing trouble within Lotus Rock Mansion.
"Chris, don't rush. Tell me slowly, who wants to kill you?"
"Yes, yes, it was a bandit."
"Lord Roy, this bandit is so strong. He also possesses Sovereign Power, and even Sister Shelley isn't his match."
"Save me, Lord Roy, I don't want to die."
Chris tightly gripped Roy's hand. She could feel the black and red spear destroying her divine body.
"What? Bandits attacked you?"
This question was spoken by the four of them together.
Roy's tone was one of surprise.
As for Ivan, Timothy, and Brandy, they were enraged.
Roy was surprised because his divine sense had previously spread across more than half of the Netherworld, yet he hadn't detected Shelley's presence.
Ivan and the other two were enraged that Chris, as Shelley had mentioned, was so audacious.
From what Chris had just said, she had, through some unknown method, tricked Shelley and infiltrated the family's team with a Divine Clone, entering the Infernal Realm. Now, she was in mortal danger.
"Where?"
"The Infernal Realm, in the Infernal Realm..."
The Infernal Realm...
"Let's go!"
Roy gave Chris a deep look, then waved his hand. Yellow divine power enveloped Chris, transforming into a beam of yellow light, and instantly disappearing before Garfield and the others.
"This..."
Garfield's eyes couldn't track Roy's figure. He spread his divine sense, but in just a brief moment, Roy and Chris's auras had already exceeded Garfield's divine sense range, filling him with shock.
Could the phenomenon of heavenly laws descending just now not be the breakthrough of Lord Roy's other Divine Clones?
The remaining few looked at each other, nodded, and then dispersed.
...
Having perfectly fused the six Profound Mysteries of Laws of the Earth Element into Earthly Laws, and now possessing Willpower, Roy's speed had increased by thousands, even tens of thousands of times compared to before.
In less than a day, Roy, with Chris, arrived at the Planar Teleportation Array on the Undead Sacred Mountain.
At this moment, Chris's face was filled with terror. She tightly clutched one of Roy's hands, seemingly still recovering from the fear of her Divine Clone's death.
"To the Infernal Realm, Blood Peak Continent, Iron Saber Gorge."
After presenting the Sovereign Token, the guarding Sovereign Legion immediately allowed Roy to cut in line, letting him use the Planar Teleportation Array first.
"Whoosh!"
The scenery shifted, and the next moment, Roy's figure appeared in the Infernal Realm.
