Age of Adepts

As soon as the big fight began, Grim didn't hesitate to beckon the Shadow Demon to his front.

The previous battle was a 'fair' duel between two top sorcerers, so a puppet creation like Shadow Demon was really not suitable for the field. Otherwise, even if a winner was split, that Monash Clan Chief would not be convinced.

And in the middle of the future, even if Grim had the strength to unify the entire region, it would still leave the Monash Clan Chief with the most prominent position. Not to mention Grim, even if other people wanted to unify the central region, they would have to do everything they could to bring in this ungodly powerful Gold One Clan Chief.

Nothing more, the other party's strength was the strongest guarantee of his position!

So, if Grim wanted to beat his opponent, he couldn't do anything that would make him angry.

And now, his opponent became this Severus from the Sorcerer's Association. In this way, the nature of the battle had fundamentally changed. The two sides were no longer competitors, but true 'enemies' now.

To hold back at this time would only be futile to provoke the other party's shame.

Therefore, as soon as he realized that the curse of Severus was powerful and terrifying, Grim immediately beckoned the Shadow Demon who was not afraid of the curse to his front.

As soon as the Shadow Demon's obscure and misty energy breath appeared, that Severus instantly became aware of it.

He immediately grinned with a mouth full of withered yellow and zero teeth and sneered.

"Shadow Puppet? Jeez, Grim, don't think you're the only one with this kind of thing..."

As he spoke, darkness fluctuated inside the shadows behind Severus, and a familiar scent of energy was transmitted.

The Shadow Demon lurking in the shadows beneath Grim stared with dark pupils, carefully scanning and perceiving the shadow behind the cursed wizard. As expected, it perceived a strange figure it knew too well to be familiar with in the deep, dark shadow space.

The other party also had a Shadow Puppet... and judging from the scent, it was also a 4th rank Shadow Puppet....

Shadowsteel's dark pupils immediately came to life, and it jumped out without hesitation, taking the lead to challenge the unseen opponent.

Two black flames lit up in the shadows behind Severus, and a grotesque fellow, also tall and with an all-metal body made of Shadowsteel, opened his eyes, grinned a cruel grin, and slithered out.

Above the vast battlefield, sorcery flew everywhere, flames burned everywhere, and the moment they swept across the sky, they would also leave a fragmented remnant in the space.

These swirling and whirling shadows, as large as a millstone and as small as the tip of a needle, became the battlefield where the two shadow puppets chased and fought with each other.

Their figures never reveal themselves to people, but chase and jump rapidly from shadow space to shadow space, even if there is an occasional exchange of blows is also fleeting, so fast that it is impossible to notice, and even more difficult to capture and capture.

They were like two body-less ghost assassins frantically chasing and fighting, and a small energy storm bursting in the shadow space outlined the path of their chase and fight, which also revealed the explosive and dangerous nature of their battle.

The same unfathomable dark technique, the same indestructible metal body, the same fearless killing methods... It was because both sides were of the same origin and had too many similarities, which caused their battle to become extremely difficult, and even turned into a grueling battle.

However, on the whole, the Shadow Demon still held a considerable upper hand. As for the reason, it was because it had two 4th-ranked sorcery weapons in its hands, while the opponent had nothing but a shadow puppet with superb refinement skills!

Seeing that the Shadow Demon was offset by the opponent's Shadow Puppet, Grim could only sigh helplessly.

After all, Shadow Demon had already shown his face in the Sorcerer's Association, and if the other party didn't have targeted measures, then even he would have to underestimate the Sorcerer's Association from this.

The witches were all catching and killing each other, especially on the side of the 4th stage Thunder Dragon, which was surrounded by various strange summoned or witch beasts with different forms and completely different killing methods. Although their strength was not comparable to that of the Brontosaurus, their fearless entanglement in groups made the latter roar incessantly, but it was difficult to get away.

Mary and Remy, the Plague Poison Spirit, plus the clumsy and slow Magic Puppet Dragon had to face five 4th level witches, the situation was thrilling.

Fried, Milva, Nicholas, Matthew and Fabrice....

These five were not good at any of them, they used summoning and witch beasts to stalk the most powerful 4th stage brontosaurus, then focused their witch power to attack Mary and Remy. This made the latter two instantly become extremely dangerous.

At this time, the Clara Witch was even unnatural and went down in front of the battle, holding the Berserk Baboon to resist the attacks of Fried and the others. This also alleviated the crisis of Mary and the others' rapid defeat from the side.

Remy and the Demonic Puppet Dragon, although they both had Class 4 levels, were clearly unable to withstand a true Class 4 witch if it came down to it.

Mary and Clara, two 4th rank witches, plus Remy and Magic Puppet Dragon, two pseudo-4th ranks, going up against the five witches on the opposite side, the difficulty and thrill of it could be imagined.

However, no matter how lively they fought here, it was only a side battlefield after all, and it was still the two super-strong who could truly decide who would win or lose today's battle.

And the battle between them was one that ordinary witches were not qualified to participate in!

Grim was in a bad state right now.

That Severus's curse sorcery had extraordinary magic penetration, even if Grim had the protection of the Four Flame Laws, he was not immune to it.

The Aging Curse could cut down the physique....

The Weakness Curse can cut power....

The Eye Blind Curse can cut perception....

The retardation curse can cut speed....

The chaos curse can disrupt mental consciousness....

The Herpes Curse can cause large areas of the target's body to appear....

The worm spell can absorb some of the target's magical energy and transform it into a foreign worm, tearing at its flesh and blood....

The Large Tongue spell can cause the target creature's tongue to grow large and fill its mouth, thereby losing the ability to hold the spell and cast it....

Insane hallucinations can cause the target to hallucinate consciousness so that they can do something crazy....

........

........

As a superpower, what Severus was best at was using a series of cursed sorceries to turn his enemy into a soft-footed crab, and then using various powerful wands or wands to put him down.

The reason why Severus was able to be so terrifying was none other than a powerful sorcery that was completely in tune with his soul origin, the Book of Curses.

It was also a 5th level soul armament!

Severus grasped the Book of Curses with one hand, and with the other hand, he continued to make a series of empty strokes, every time a curse rune was formed, it would instantly disappear and then suddenly appear on Grim's tall, scorching molten fire body.

Grim was fed up with this kind of cursed sorcery that could not be defended against, he roared loudly, gathering one red hot lava fireball after another between his palms and throwing it viciously at his enemy.

Each time, Severus would turn into a billowing cloud of black smoke that would disperse and reassemble itself in another area. Like most of the elemental sorcerers who had transformed their bodies into energy, Severus didn't have any fatal wounds on his body, so naturally, he wasn't afraid of fireballs.

However, just because he wasn't afraid of fire didn't mean that he wasn't afraid of the Laws of Fire!

The greatest characteristic of the power of the Laws was exclusivity.

Once a certain kind of law force in a certain region gained the upper hand, they would naturally begin to invade the surrounding bits of law, wanting to assimilate them over. This was a characteristic of the Laws, and an instinct that could not be suppressed!

Therefore, when the Flame Law swept across the sky, even the Cursed Law of Severus had to retreat in step, and had to gather even more power to fight against it.

However, the nature of the Cursed Laws is to be negative and invasive, so they are obviously not as strong and violent as the Flame Laws in a head-on confrontation.

Therefore, although the two sides were evenly matched, the battlefield was still dominated by Grim, who used a fierce and violent flame sorcery to drive the Severus around, with nowhere to stand.

The molten fire giant incarnated by Grim was like an overwhelming fire deity, dazzling with blinding golden flames, the entire space was filled with extreme heat that etched bone and flesh. He raised his arms and legs and threw a series of lava fireballs, engulfing a certain part of the battlefield in a terrifying wave of flames and ferocious shockwaves of flames.

Whenever Severus came close to his true form, Grim would raise a handful of covering lava to slap it down. In the midst of the rushing wave of magical flames, the black smoke cloud that Severus had incarnated was also shattered and split apart.

By the time it struggled to break out of the fire and reassemble itself somewhere, the black robes on top of its bony rickety body were in tatters, making it difficult to cover its body.

"Cough cough... damn..." felt better as Severus coughed violently, coughing the amazing heat and nasty flames out of his lung tubes.

Among the several flame laws that the opponent possessed, there was even an extremely rare 'flame invisibility' that could cloak the flame sorcery it had inspired and throw it at the enemy without anyone noticing.

It was because of the existence of this strange law that it also made the battle so difficult for Severus.

Once the exotic flame law invaded the body, even Severus would have to work hard to expel it from his body. In the meantime, that internal and external flame damage was something that even he, a 4th rank Cursed Sorcerer, would have to turn pale when he mentioned it.

"Damn it, didn't this Grim just advance only two hundred years? How is it that you are so skilled in the use of the power of the Law? Bastard Bastard, I got screwed by those old foxes at headquarters again..."

As he cursed angrily, Severus split and polymerized as he flew, dodging the opponent's multifarious flame sorceries. And whenever the other party attacked in between, he also had to gust like a fire to desperately attach all sorts of vicious curses to it.

The two sides were stalking each other, rapidly wearing down each other's physical strength and energy.

The battle was still so fierce and dangerous....
