Abyss Summoner

In the void, orange flames burned, surrounded by the pungent smell of sulfur. Suddenly, countless intersecting cracks appeared, silently peeling away like glass, revealing behind it a massive body and a face filled with hatred.

This was a demon identical to Chen Feng’s current state. No, there were some differences; the latter was taller, and the human brilliance in its eyes had been completely replaced by destruction.

Legendary Flame Demon!

At the moment of its descent, a layer of flames emerged on its dark red skin, and its entire body transformed into a humanoid blaze. Its figure was dazzling even under the sunlight, instantly attracting Chen Feng’s gaze.

However, the expression was somewhat hostile. The Legendary Flame Demon looked at Chen Feng, its eyes filled with too many emotions: anger, killing intent, confusion, fear, and disbelief.

This human, once looked down upon, had become a legendary figure!

The Flame Demon possessed the Eyes of Judgment, seeing through Chen Feng’s changes instantly, which was what it found most unbelievable.

This mortal who once relied on it for power had already gained such strength. Although he was still no match for it, it made the Legendary Flame Demon feel a sense of surrealism.

How long did it take for him to go from a mortal to this level of power?

Of course, this question was not important. To the Legendary Flame Demon, the whereabouts of the Endless Sword were its real concern!

"Despicable... human, you have summoned me once again. I acknowledge your strength. Just return my weapon to me, and I will end my pursuit of you!"

The Legendary Flame Demon instinctively hung the word "despicable" on its lips, but upon seeing Chen Feng’s calm face, it didn’t utter the latter half of the sentence.

Demons indeed lacked wisdom, no wonder they often lost more battles against Devils.

Chen Feng did not answer its question. Instead, he spread his wings and flew into the air. At this moment, he looked down on the Legendary Flame Demon, ignoring it. For a legendary creature, this was undoubtedly the greatest insult.

The Legendary Flame Demon seemed to have not figured out what was happening. It still harbored the delusion of having its weapon returned, which was nothing short of a colossal joke.

Chen Feng never spoke, but the slight curl of his lips provoked the already breaking patience of the Legendary Flame Demon.

Ignorance?

Mockery?

Or disdain?

The Legendary Flame Demon, possessing the wisdom to reflect, clearly understood Chen Feng’s contempt. Terrifying flames ignited on its body, and the power belonging to a legend erupted instantaneously. Its physique underwent violent changes—the once massive body grew terrifying, the Demon Horn on its head visibly enlarged, the Demon Wings behind it also grew much longer, and mysterious demon tattoos appeared all over its body.

Similar to some kind of frenzy technique.

The Legendary Flame Demon did not possess much patience. Being refused triggered its fury. That hateful human had once again rejected its goodwill!

Demons were adept at using force to solve problems. To the Legendary Flame Demon, Chen Feng’s rudeness signaled the start of this battle.

"You foolish mortal, you’ve angered the great Matt once more!"

"Boom!"

A roar ensued. The Legendary Flame Demon’s arms underwent some transformation, sharp claws appeared on both hands, and the eerie demon tattoos spread across its bare chest. An aura belonging to a demon overlord began to emanate freely from it.

"Matt, is that the name of the Legendary Flame Demon?"

Chen Feng looked coldly at all this before him. Abyssal creatures’ vocabulary was always so limited. If memory served, when the Undead Mage Saruman was summoned, he used the same vocabulary.

But what was the outcome?

The other ended up being the head of tens of thousands of Skeletons, suppressing the Insect Realm for him in a distant city!

Matt, like the master of flames, the surrounding flames danced atop it. Along with a howling gale, it suddenly clenched its palm.

A surge of demonic power erupted.

In front of Matt, fierce flames began to gather like a tornado, countless flames converged towards its palm, and, immediately after, a two-meter Flame Longsword instantly took form.

—Headsman’s Sword!

The surrounding temperature gradually rose!

The Legendary Flame Demon Matt had completed its preparations. Even though Chen Feng’s power had undergone qualitative changes, after all, he was a newly ascended legend, leaving some gap compared to itself.

Kill him!

Then reclaim the Endless Sword!

Thinking about the lost Sub-divine Artifact, pain twisted in Matt’s heart. It had paid an unspeakable price to obtain a Sub-divine Artifact, only to have it seized by that despicable human. This hatred was indescribable in words!

Having tainted my beloved weapon, repay it with your life!

The Demon Wings behind Matt slowly spread open. Just when its power gathered at the peak, about to launch an attack on Chen Feng in the next second.

A dazzling black mist slashed through the air!

Matt swung his beheading longsword directly at it, slicing into the black mist, followed by a harrowing scream from an orc wraith!

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Simultaneously, the desperate and piercing shrieks began ringing in Matt’s ears. Ahead appeared countless pale and sinister wraiths, floating in the air, waving their arms and surrounding Matt from all unimaginable angles!

The terrifying thing was, three horrifying Powers of the Soul swept in from not far away, belonging to legendary beings, filled only with instinctual resentment and devoid of any thought!

The tribe was just one step away from gaining a foothold on this land, but because of Chen Feng, everything vanished into thin air.

In such circumstances, the irrational wraiths directed all their rage onto the Legendary Blazing Demon!

Matt was unaware of what was happening around him. Among the wraiths before him, he sensed the aura of three legendary beings, and under such pressure, a radiant shield of fire suddenly appeared around his body!

[Shield of Scorching Heat]

Compressing the terrifying Flame Power into form, then covering the body, it can effectively resist both physical and magic attacks!

The bodies of the wraiths were scorched by the flames, but they surged forward without fear, even if they couldn’t escape the fate of being reduced to ashes, it did not terrify them. The most frightening part was, the wraiths suddenly opened their mouths, revealing two rows of extremely sharp teeth. They unleashed their Power of the Soul, trying to break through the Shield of Scorching Heat’s defense.

The Power of the Soul from hundreds of beastman strongmen bombarded the shield in this way. In this world, the most terrifying spirit is the one that does not fear death.

At this moment, Matt was bewildered because he didn’t understand why he suddenly became the target of the wraiths’ attack. Compared to demons, human bodies are the wraiths’ most favored food!

The sound of silent shattering spread, and a crack as thin as a hair appeared on the shield!

And at this moment, the wraiths, like drowning men finding an exit, squeezed through the crack with all their might. Icy cold as ice, the wraiths clung to Matt’s body, and immediately, a complex will conveyed itself into the demon’s mind.

Submit!

From the start, these wraiths had already become sacrifices, and what appeared before Matt now was merely a kind of soul energy.

This energy extracted from the sacrifice perhaps deceived even Matt by disguising itself as a wraith. Therefore, after sensing the will infused in this energy, even Matt hesitated slightly.

It was at this moment that the Power of the Soul from Kes and the other two legendary figures also surged through the crack. This energy clung to Matt like maggots on the bone, and the most terrifying part was that all these maggot heads were Chen Feng’s faces.

Countless insects clung to Matt, and in less than a minute, they completely enveloped him, leaving only his eyes, filled with extreme surprise.

Submit!

The will these energies conveyed to Matt was singular—to become Chen Feng’s summoned beast. Compared to random summoning, forced summoning requires completely defeating the opponent in spirit, making the opponent willingly swear allegiance!

Matt attempted to burn these maggots with flames, but unfortunately, these energies had already consumed his soul, and the so-called flames could no longer harm this energy.

Time passed second by second.

Matt’s willpower was gradually devoured; at first, he struggled violently, but as minutes passed, his movements slowed significantly.

Chen Feng bit his lip tightly. This was a soul-level confrontation, and before completely subduing Matt, his Spiritual Power was also terrifyingly depleted.

The Legendary Blazing Demon truly lived up to its name as an old demon; had it been an ordinary legendary being, they would have already completely surrendered under such influence, but it continued to struggle desperately, trying to escape Chen Feng’s spiritual realm!

The excessive consumption of Spiritual Power turned Chen Feng’s face deathly pale, but he did not utter a single groan of pain. Instead, he used this pain to propel his Spiritual Power at an even faster pace, sweeping over the Legendary Blazing Demon’s soul!

"Just a little more..."

"Just a tiny bit more!"

Chen Feng clearly sensed that under this sweep, the Blazing Demon’s soul was significantly weakened. Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before its will completely shattered, at which time it would naturally become a powerful subordinate in his hands!

Soul energy overflowed, completely enveloping Matt, leaving no gap. He no longer had the power to resist and could only rely on this defensive gesture to preserve his remaining energy, but it was all in vain!

Matt chose defense, but every second, Chen Feng’s soul oppression affected him. At this rate, within five minutes, he would completely lose his strength and become Chen Feng’s summoned beast!

Victory was in sight!

Yet, at this critical moment, a crack unexpectedly tore open in the surrounding space, and a cloaked shadow, holding a scythe, swiftly swept through it.

The scythe was raised without any unnecessary words, and the shadow sliced toward Chen Feng’s head, its speed making it impossible for Chen Feng to dodge.

Naraku!

This Evil God, whose plans were ruined by Chen Feng, finally found what it believed to be a rare opportunity!

At this point, its sole objective was to sever the long-anticipated enemy’s head!
