Chapter 286 Bloodbane Serpent - Erosk

As they were thinking about it, the human elder unleashed another dark longsword.

The goblin giants, feeling no harm and unable to defend, abandoned their defense and switched to offense, roaring as they charged at the two elders.

However, at that moment, their vision suddenly darkened, and they fell straight to the ground, plunging into an eternal "slumber."

The goblin giants could not know that the Lightbane Spellblade of the Obsidian Elder was a sword that only attacked "life energy," rendering all defenses ineffective.

And because they were in a highly excited state during battle, they had not noticed that their bodies had actually fallen into fatigue due to the decline of their "life energy."

By the time their life energy reached zero, it was already too late.

.

"Rodrygo, even the gatekeepers are at the fourth tier, far beyond the planned level... Shall we still enter this fortress?"

The Obsidian Elder dodged arrows shot from the stone tower while conversing with the Cardinal Elder, in a nonchalant manner.

"Indeed, drawing out the labyrinth boss at this time would only put us at a greater disadvantage."

The Cardinal Elder held his Bloodfire Demonblade upright in front of him, murmured something, and a heavenly fire fell from the sky, accurately hitting the nearest stone tower, igniting the goblins inside and temporarily preventing them from shooting arrows at them.

Entering the fortress was not difficult for the two, but the outside and inside of the fortress were two different concepts.

Breaking into the core area could potentially draw out the labyrinth boss, something they both unwilling to see.

Even though their strength was extraordinary;

Even though they could leave any ordinary labyrinth by returning to the entrance;

In any labyrinth, once the labyrinth leader appeared, it was no longer a situation where they could leave at will.

However, not entering the fortress did not affect the new plan of the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders. The central location on the mountain was now ablaze, and they believed that the enemies who had ambushed the Scarlet Family were already approaching.

In the worst-case scenario, even if the enemy had sixth-tier strength, the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders were confident in finding the enemy after they approached, and then making a decision to withdraw after confirming the enemy's identity.

·

During the waiting period for the "enemy" to appear, the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders stood outside the fortress gate, continuously slaying the goblin reinforcements. Their actions carried a certain risk, as the leader of the goblin race would not watch their people being slaughtered indefinitely.

So, would the labyrinth boss inside the fortress be drawn out by the commotion outside first, or would the "unknown enemy" reveal themselves first? The Cardinal and Obsidian Elders were "lucky," as the "unknown enemy" appeared first.

Moreover, this "enemy" did not hide but appeared directly in front of them.

"Fufufu, I never thought I'd meet you two here, Red-chan, Black-chan... This is quite an unexpected surprise."

The voice arrived before the person, and the hoarse "Red-chan" and "Black-chan" made both the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders shudder involuntarily.

The only one in this world who would call them Red-chan and Black-chan was that madman.

As a scythe with a skull-shaped blade suddenly flew over and embedded itself in the fortress gate, an old man in a tattered gray robe, holding the chain at the end of the scythe, "flew" to the fortress entrance and landed gracefully in front of the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders.

·

The presence of this thin, tall old man with blood-red eyes put the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders on high alert!

"Bloodbane Serpent, Erosk, why are you here?!"

The Cardinal and Obsidian Elders immediately distanced themselves, but fortunately, the Bloodbane Serpent showed no intention of attacking immediately or ambushing them, only smiling as he watched them.

"What a good question, why am I here...?"

The Bloodbane Serpent twisted his wrist, and the dark scythe, along with the chain, returned to his hand.

"I think it's fate, the gods above have sent me to kill you and complete the unfinished business from last time... You two are the only exceptions who have escaped from my hands."

As the Bloodbane Serpent spoke, he slowly approached the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders.

.

Evidently a mere disheveled old man, he caused the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders to become extremely tense.

Although they did not communicate, both were simultaneously contemplating how to escape from the old man's grasp.

Upon encountering the elder known as "Bloodbane Serpent - Erosk," the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders immediately understood that the strength of the labyrinth's demons was due to this old man's influence.

It was no wonder the labyrinth's difficulty increased with such a formidable individual present!

"Bloodbane Serpent, don't think we're the same as before!"

The Cardinal Elder placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, yet his footsteps continued to slowly retreat.

"Is that so? How delightful! You must give it your all to entertain me, fufufufu."

The Bloodbane Serpent swung his chain, causing the scythe to spin beside him, evoking unpleasant memories for the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders.

However, their previous battle had become nourishment for their growth, and they now knew which techniques were effective against this Bloodbane Serpent and which would only expose unnecessary weaknesses.

Without warning, the Cardinal Elder struck first, drawing his Bloodfire Demonblade while infusing it with magicl power, and immediately plunged the burning blade into the ground beneath him.

"Blazing Pillar Barrage!"

The Cardinal Elder shouted the technique's name to build momentum and convey his intentions to the Obsidian Elder.

As he executed the technique, a pillar of fire erupted from beneath the Bloodbane Serpent's feet, but the elder's speed was even faster! With an inconceivable gait, he left the successive pillars of fire behind and closed in on the Cardinal Elder!

In the blink of an eye, as the dancing scythe slashed towards the Cardinal Elder's neck, his body dissipated into flames, vanishing into thin air. Simultaneously, a dark sword aura seized the Bloodbane Serpent's offensive opening, striking precisely at his body... No, it missed! The Bloodbane Serpent contorted his body in a manner impossible for humans, narrowly evading the attack!

"Fufufufu, how exhilarating! Truly, it's sheer ecstasy!"

The Bloodbane Serpent laughed heartily as he leaped into the air, brandishing three identical pitch-black skull scythes, each entwined with long chains at their ends.

"Before I kill you two, make sure to entertain me to the fullest!"

The Bloodbane Serpent roared as he hurled the scythes, which merged into four red lights in midair before solidifying into four winged serpents.

Two of the serpents flew towards the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders, one encircled the Bloodbane Serpent, and the last serpent headed towards the nearby mountain forest.

The Cardinal and Obsidian Elders' faces turned pale upon witnessing this scene.

Hidden within that forest was the most important Divine Heir of their Scarlet Family, Viviana!

The Bloodbane Serpent's actions clearly indicated that he had noticed Viviana's presence!

"Divine Weapon Release! Grant my enemies a merciless death! Lightbane Spellblade - Korlskin!!!"

Without any hesitation, the Obsidian Elder plunged the Lightless Curse Sword into his own chest.

Instantly, the glass-like sword transformed into black smoke, consuming his body entirely.
