The soul is the most important thing within a living being, and any damage to it is considered severe. The hero voluntarily ignited his own soul. The Lords wondered why he would do such a thing.

“Lord Su Wan, shouldn’t we stop your hero?” A Lord asked.

“I never take back my orders. After the war is over, Cletos will return to me carrying the head of the transcendent.” Su Wan observed the battlefield.

Upon hearing this, the Lord refrained from saying anything. He looked conflicted.

The Lords had participated in this battle but weren’t aware of Su Wan’s intentions.

When Cletos’s soul began to burn, his aura surged dramatically. Distortions appeared in the surrounding space, and the released pressure was no less than that of the Transcendent Dragon Descendant standing before them.

[Soul Ignition: By burning the soul, one can unleash ten times the power. During the burning of the soul, the power can be converted into the power of darkness. When the power of the soul is depleted, death is certain.]

This was Cletos’ last resort. Some of the Lords understood that if Cletos burned all his soul up, he would die.

His body, which was made of rocks, swelled up, and the gray veins on it writhed like small snakes. The surrounding space was compressed to the point where outsiders couldn’t even see its appearance clearly.

“Half-blood hybrid, your soul will become the ladder for me to reach higher levels!” Feeling the erupting power inside him erupt like magma, Cletos tightened his grip on his war hammer and stared at the Transcendent Dragon Descendant before him.

The earth burst open, and web-like cracks spread. Waves of air rose and caused sonic booms all around.

The place where the Transcendent Dragon Descendant stood exploded, and a terrifying shockwave swept in all directions, covering the sky in a cloud of dust.

The explosion resounded through the air. The place where the Transcendent Dragon Descendant was the center of the storm.

Due to the thinning of the plane’s power, a transcendent-level force could tear through the void. The space between the two collapsed, and the surroundings became completely obscured. Only the terrifying shockwaves and the crumbling earth could be seen.

Cletos confronted the Transcendent Dragon Descendant fiercely. Due to the space restrictions around the spire, the Transcendent Dragon Descendant couldn’t take flight and had no choice but to engage in a battle with Cletos.

Cletos’ had the advantage of close-range combat.

The Lords couldn’t help but worry. They didn’t dare ask Su Wan about it and instead discussed it among themselves.

Su Wan ignored them and watched the intense clash on the battlefield.

“Leona, infiltrate the void and assist Cletos secretly. Remember, even if Cletos falls in battle, don’t kill the Transcendent Dragon Descendant.”

Leona obeyed. She created illusions to trick the opponent and give Cletos an advantage in the fight. For Cletos to advance to a new level, he needed to win.

If Leona were to make a move, her power would surely reach an unprecedented level. However, Cletos wouldn’t be able to upgrade himself.

Even if the Transcendent Dragon Descendant detected Leona’s presence, it would probably think Cletos was being used as bait for the legendary hero.

That was what Su Wan wanted. If the opponent believed that Cletos was bait, it wouldn’t give much importance to Cletos as opposed to Leona.

Leona disappeared from Su Wan’s side. The Transcendent Dragon Descendant sensed the subtle shift in the aura. If it weren’t for its heightened perception, he wouldn’t have been able to detect it.

That aura brought forth an indescribable sense of danger. There was a formidable enemy hidden in the shadows who was capable of posing a real threat to him!

Its gaze was filled with shock and anger. ‘Is that d*mn reptile just a decoy?’

The transcendent dragon descendant was wary. It retracted some of its power and prepared to defend itself from a new enemy’s ambush.

However, the situation suddenly took a different turn. The Transcendent Dragon Descendant hesitated and didn’t dare fully unleash its power.

On the other hand, Cletos was burning his soul and sacrificing it to gain power. This was not an unusual move for a creature of darkness. Cletos, born as an abyssal high-ranking demon, the Devourer of Souls, was the purest form of darkness.

Burning his soul allowed him to obtain power beyond limits. As the battle intensified, his power surged.

Every swing of Cletos’s war hammer had enough power to flatten a mountain.

The Transcendent Dragon Descendant’s face darkened. He could sense another aura. He knew that the new enemy was even more dangerous. The unknown was the most terrifying thing of all.

The Transcendent Dragon Descendant didn’t dare unleash its full power. It assumed that the new enemy would attack it at any moment.

On the other hand, Cletos gave it his all. He only had one shot. When his soul burned out fully, he would die!

With each swing of his war hammer, he used all his might and launched continuous attacks.

The earth had already cracked open. The aftermath of their battle was terrifying. It was like a natural disaster.

The remaining half-dragons didn’t dare approach.

The Lords trembled. The two powers collided in the center and shook everything. They had anticipated that the Transcendent Dragon Descendant would be powerful, but they had never expected Cletos to hold his own. The fight was evenly matched.

However, the half-dragons, who moved away from the battlefield, quickly recovered from their injuries. Their deceased companions had disappeared without a trace from the ground where they had fallen.

Did the half-dragons have the ability to resurrect after a fall?

Doubts rose in their hearts. The half-dragons wondered whether the Transcendent Dragon Descendant could handle this matter.

Su Wan also noticed the half-dragons.

After a moment, she breathed a sigh of relief.

With the transcendent present, it was evident that the power of the guardians of the spire was not weak. It was due to the presence of the ancient rules that they were being restricted..
