Chapter 2558 - 1119: Devouring the Demonic Incarnation
The demonic incarnation of the Queen of the Succubi wielded a super-giant fine gold long whip, shaped like a claw with three heads, mercilessly lashing down on Baron Blood.
Each strike left three terrifying scars, varying in depth, with blood pouring out endlessly.
This was none other than the Lover’s Scourge, the Queen of the Succubi’s exclusive divine artifact.
The relationship between the true body and the incarnation is far more marvelous than people can imagine, much closer indeed.
There was indeed only one divine artifact, but they could share it through summoning.
It naturally had a corresponding summoning mechanism.
For example, the true body had absolute usage rights; as long as it summoned, regardless of whether other incarnations were using it, it would be forcibly recalled.
Similarly, for an incarnation to successfully summon it, the artifact must be in an idle state and gain consent from the true body, lacking either is not possible.
This certainly enhanced the combat power of the incarnation, exploiting the power of the exclusive divine artifact to the utmost.
But this came at the cost of increased risk of loss.
It was much easier to deal with an incarnation than with the true body, especially those with first-level godhood, whose power was only equivalent to a demigod, giving legendary professionals a chance to challenge and potentially kill them.
Many artifacts lost in the Material Plane came about in this way.
Exclusive divine artifacts usually have the ability to automatically recall, making the likelihood of loss much lower than other artifacts.
However, one cannot resist being specially targeted; through some innate conditions or custom-made spells, it is possible to cut off this recall ability.
The War Ravager previously found itself in this situation, and Gaven had no choice but to summon it back through circuitous means.
This was still while in the hands of a reliable ally, but if Katherine had any intention of claiming it as her own, finding methods to seal or isolate it wouldn’t be difficult, leaving Gaven unable to return to the Material Plane.
Whether it’s a True God or a Demon Lord, it’s the same situation.
They can’t dispatch their true body to the Material Plane but can only recover lost artifacts through incarnations or believers, significantly reducing the success rate.
It was simply the series of special abilities of the Lover’s Scourge being suppressed by Baron Blood’s own divine traits; the splattered blood swirling around his body didn’t even have a chance to land.
The continuously bleeding wounds were hard to cause substantive harm to him; instead, they made him look more hideous and terrifying.
The situation on the Berserk Blue Bear’s side was slightly better; its attacks were powerful and heavy, typically causing internal injuries.
Externally it looked inconspicuous, while internally, berserk power accumulated massively, severely hindering the flow of Baron Blood’s divine power, creating effects similar to broken bones and torn muscles.
The flamestorm surrounding Baron Blood began to rapidly compress, with flames and blood continuing their relentless entanglement.
The Revenge Meteor Hammer was once again withdrawn, spinning with the storm, appearing and disappearing mysteriously, and causing Baron Blood to stagger with every strike.
In response to these attacks, Baron Blood remained completely indifferent, focusing all his attention at the very center of the flamestorm, where a golden skeleton giant was taking shape, its left hand blood-red.
With a wave of the golden skeleton giant’s hand, the undead warhammer that had just blasted through it flew back at a terrifying speed, never touching the ground.
Realizing how strongly the opponent’s divine nature force suppressed him, Baron Blood dared not face it directly.
The only thing he could do was avoid further harm, straining slightly to send his already shattered left shoulder up.
The situation was exactly the same as last time.
His massive divine body was as fragile as paper against this advanced undead artifact.
His left shoulder instantly lost a chunk, leaving a giant hollow, the wound immediately scabbing over, and corroding inward rapidly—using the scab as a medium.
For Baron Blood, this was the most terrifying aspect.
Under normal circumstances, as long as the divine power wasn’t completely exhausted, the divine body wouldn’t be lacking, with a large amount of divine power swiftly repairing, akin to having regenerative ability.
Especially for Baron Blood, as the God of the Vampire Race, his regenerative ability had reached an inconceivable level.
Even the Holy Light’s suppressive effect on him was greatly reduced, only slowing down his regeneration speed and failing to stop it completely, leaving the battle up to pure strength.
In contrast, the undead divine power directly controlled, dominated, and plundered him, a suppression from the level of law itself, a classic dimensional reduction strike.
The enemy clearly noticed his disadvantage and took relentless advantage of it.
The War Ravager swung with ferocious momentum, wildly smashing, each blow taking a chunk out wherever it landed.
All remaining enemies played a supporting role, assisting its attack, desperately keeping him pinned down, even pushing themselves under its relentless hammer, aiding the undead warhammer’s offensive.
Because the opponent was a giant, only a third of his height.
Hence, all attacks focused on the lower three regions, especially the legs, soon severely deformed and struggling to support his massive body type.
"Transform into a Blood Sea!"
Baron Blood decisively abandoned the godhood form, the entire incarnation becoming a massive blood sea, its diameter even greater than the super flamestorm.
Surging forcefully forward, actively meeting the other three demonic incarnations.
The nature of divine power is very similar to water.
If highly compressed, it can manifest a solid state—godhood form.
