Gacha Sovereign

"Are you ready to meet your doom, Black Devil Sect?"

The cold voice somehow sent out a chill in this burning land. The disciples, elders, and even the sect master shuddered for a second as if this word sentenced them to death. The first one to recover were actually the elders as one of them shouted, "Don't falter. There are only fourteen of them. We need to kill them right now before we see any reinforcement."

Those words shook the body of the sect master. He usually ran away from a battle that he knew he couldn't win while glorifying the battle he could win. This was the only reason why he could reach this position after doing it for almost a millennial. However, these people actually gave him the instinct he had honed in his entire life. The instinct to know whether he needed to escape or fight.

His instinct told him to escape from this place, but his conscience asked him otherwise. If he ran away from this problem, the disciples and elders would die, and even he might be nothing but ashes. There was also a barrier that trapped them inside, preventing him from escaping.

These two made his escape impossible. In that case, he could only gamble his life as he shouted. "We are going to fight them here. Our numbers are a few thousand times higher than them, so we shouldn't be afraid."

On the opposite side, Alex didn't attack them for a while as if he wanted to let the Black Devil Sect regain their composure and attack him.

"Do you think they can sense our cultivation?" Leoz asked.

"No. This is the minimum distance we can have before they can realize our strength. We don't want to scare them first before killing a thousand people." Anna shook her head.

"Anna, Jeanne, Fabio, Vera, and Greg will be marching to the left and make sure no one is alive. Kyle, Stina, Jean, Artur, and Nelson go to the right. Leoz, me, Sherry, and Anya will march forward. Seeing how the sect master actually makes his appearance, we don't know to search for him, so we can focus on dealing with our firepower." Alex thought for a moment. "This time, I want Leoz, Anna, and Artur to use your True Spirit Body. As for the rest… I might not use your power this time to see whether we can hold a candle against our enemies without True Spirit Body."

"Understood." The spirits nodded while the trio raised their weapons.

"True Spirit Body." The three of them said the same thing. A pair of horns grew on Leoz's head as his body began to be covered by lightning. To his left, a pair of beautiful dark butterfly wings appeared from her body as a hundred black butterflies appeared out of nowhere. To his right, a knight with his shining armor raised his sword as if he was the general of the army, boosting his soldiers' morale.

"Thunder Berserker Form."

"Dark Butterfly Form."

"Heroic Spirit."

None of them moved after activating their True Spirit Body according to Alex's instruction, waiting for a barrage of attacks from those people. No one would think he had Space Element, so he needed to take advantage of this weapon to the fullest.

Only after a minute, they saw the disciples, elders, and even the sect master were preparing to unleash their attack at the same time. However, it turned out they were targeting the barrier instead of their group.

Alex snapped his finger and appeared behind the enemies and looked at these few thousand people's attacks.

"What?"

"How did he appear in that position?"

"Wait, don't tell me!"

"Run!"

"Scatter. Make sure you are far enough from each other!"

The elders and sect master realized Alex's element and quickly ordered their disciples. With that power, timing, and these attacks, they could easily develop a plan that would give a heavy blow in their force.

Alex didn't overthink about the disciples that started scattering around the area and simply clapped his hands. A small blue circle at the size of a normal human appeared in front of Alex as it suddenly expanded into a huge hole toward the Blue Layered Realm.

The Black Devil Sect confirmed what he wanted to do and couldn't help but smirk, knowing they had minimized the casualty by spreading their force around.

Another portal appeared on the sky, raining all of their attacks as if a cloud pouring raindrops.

*Boom Boom Boom!*

Another series of explosions shook the Black Devil Sect.

"The enemies have a Space Element Array Master. Watch your attack, and don't use it together as it will backfire to you. As long as we fight them smartly, we can win." The sect master shouted.

Suddenly, a few powerful attacks came from behind as soon as Alex's Space element startled them for a second. Stina and Kyle summoned their phoenixes and blasted them toward the disciples on the right. At the same time, they released their true form and turned into a real phoenix.

*Cry!*

On the right side, Anya also sent her dark butterflies and controlled a hundred people simultaneously, making them commit suicide.

"Dark Butterfly First Order. Marionettes." Anna smiled, succeeding in the first blow.

As the idiom, 'The first impression is the most important.' Sherry closed her eyes for a second, breaking the Phoenix Seed inside her body. Alex's evolved Pure Fire that was stored inside the seed burst out and replaced her normal Pure Fire for a couple of minutes.

She looked down on these people as she said with a cold tone. "Phoenixes. Go!"

The first word carried a huge amount of Spiritual Energy as three phoenixes suddenly appeared from thin air. The second word made the three phoenixes flying toward these people.

*Boom Boom Boom!*

The explosions swallowed many disciples, and once you were swallowed, only ashes would remain from your entire body.

'To think a slight confusion cost them so much…' The sect master looked at their condition before he pulled out the sword on his waist, slashing it toward his back.

"Blood Slash!"

The disciples were clueless, while the elders had a slightly delayed reaction than him. It was only after the sound of three explosions they realized that Alex was still behind them. Unfortunately, when they tried to search for him, Alex already came back to his group.

The sect master was the first to be astounded, never expecting to see a dual elements user. He looked around and noticed that many disciples suddenly fell on their knees while covered by sweats.

"What is that flame?" The sect master muttered to himself before opening his eyes wide. "Don't tell me… Is that flame a Pure Fire? No, it's already impossible to have two elements, let alone the combination of Pure Fire and Space Element… It's so rare that everyone usually believes it's impossible…"

The absurd thought crept into his mind as he dropped his jaw. "The two people could only summon one phoenix each before turning into one themselves. However, that little girl can summon three at once like him… Don't tell me… He actually has Sacrificial Fire from that little girl?"

*Thud!*

His heart skipped a beat, wondering what kind of influence they had provoked. Why they came at this particular time, and why only they needed to face this kind of trouble. Thinking about it would be useless since it wouldn't bring him anything other than death. Instead, he should encourage and manipulate the disciples to make an escape route even if it's only for himself. "Disciples. All of you shall proceed with my order!"

On the sky around the edge of the barrier, Alex had come back while bringing good news. "We have killed almost two thousand of them. I don't know why but I feel this one is easier than fighting the Joyful Union Sect…"

Anya nodded in agreement. "I think there is a kind of problem with their high command. Take a look at the expression of their sect master… I have seen his type many times. Do you want to know what kind of type he is?"

Alex glanced at her for a second and nodded.

"He will sacrifice everything as long as he can survive." Anya narrowed her eyes. "His type is hard to deal with if he has confidence since he will always be careful. However, breaking his confidence, you can see how brittle his heart actually is."

"In other words, it's time to make our way to him while killing as many as we can." Alex nodded. "Let's go."

The spirits nodded, marching together at the same time according to their roles.

On the left, Anna's Dark Butterflies were rampaging, making people commit suicide one after another. Due to the effect of Blood Pill, the time she needed to infiltrate their mind was less than a minute. It could be said that she was killing one hundred people every minute.

Fabio and Vera were not pushovers. They did it with their own style, killing the enemies one by one. They might not be flashy like Anna, but their actions instilled a deep fear inside the disciples' hearts. Jeanne mostly targeted the elders that were trying to command the disciples as usual, preventing anyone from rising a surge of morale. Last but not least, Greg made sure everyone could fight to the best of their ability, not having a single stray attack coming their way.

On the right, Kyle and Stina were doing the same job as Anna. Fighting in their original form allowed them to use their full strength while scaring the enemy. After all, Phoenixes only appeared in the legend as one of the mythical beings, scaring them still.

Jeanne's job was entrusted to Nelson for this group. He steadily killed every single elder. Unfortunately, his strength still fell short from Jeanne, and this fight was during the day, he needed more effort to kill the elders, giving the opportunity for a few of them to control the disciples.

Artur and Jean only supported them from behind, killing all the disciples that wanted to kill them or escaped their attacks alive.

It was different for the middle group.

Anya had been increasing everyone's power with her own power, albeit she was following them to camouflage. Leoz took the front and charged at them like no one business, penetrating deep into the enemy ranks. Alex kept telling him to regroup as soon as he went too deep. Meanwhile, Alex and Sherry kept using their Fire Authority to summon these six enhanced phoenixes to kill them, albeit most of them were shot down by the sect master.

To that end, Alex told Sherry to use firebirds instead. Surprisingly, both of them could summon the number they never thought possible before.

Over one thousand and five hundred firebirds appeared around them, shining so brightly as if the sun was in front of them. Controlling these many firebirds were hard for Alex and Sherry, so they simply had them charge forward.

Most of these firebirds were shot down by the enemies, but every time they exploded, it wouldn't create a chain of explosions as Alex and Sherry had covered them with their power.

On the other hand, they needed ten or so firebirds to kill someone, so they could somehow march forward steadily. Luckily, Leoz was mostly in the middle of enemies, so they didn't hit him since they attacked head-on.

The sect master was sweating profusely, looking at the elders falling on the battle one by one. The moment Alex and the group came closer, he realized that all of them were at least 4-Star Martial Monarchs with the exception of their master and mistress, AKA Alex and Sherry.

Their power was also no joke as the elders couldn't hold a candle even after activating their blood pills. It just showed how powerful Jeanne and Nelson in one on one fight. At the same time, he needed to worry about the weaker disciples. Without having any choice, he took a red pill out of his Space Ring.

"If only we didn't lose one thousand Martial Emperors in the Special Realm." He stared at it for a few seconds before swallowing it.
