arcane emperor

"Roar……!"

Countless voices intertwined together, like a group of tone-deaf people singing in Matthew's ears.

Various hallucinations kept emerging, whispers and sharp sounds one after another, trying to interfere with Matthew's thinking and consciousness.

Facing such an attack, Matthew was not affected in any way. He pushed through the thick and substantial spiritual power and came to the front of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

The sword of destruction, wrapped in the golden soul flame, slashed hard with a lethality that made the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater fearful.

The spiritual power lingering around the Thousand Faced Soul Eater was cut open by it.

The surging thunder and lightning attacked Thousand Faced Soul Eater from all directions.

Facing Matthew's aggressive offensive, the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater opened his mouth without hesitation.

The sharp sound was like a wave, spreading as fast as lightning.

Matthew, who was charging, was instantly surrounded.

A huge and twisted gray-white shadow was looking up to the sky and howling.

Under Matthew's "watching", a wave of surging death energy was preparing to eat him alive.

call!call!call!
In the final analysis, various spells and skills are the combination of combat skills and various energies.

The attack that brought Matthew a considerable sense of danger in front of him was an original and enhanced version of the legendary spell - Banshee's Wail!
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Two holy light energy shields exploded.

A psychic barrier shattered.

A psychic shield shattered.

The remaining violent shock wave fell firmly on Matthew.

However, Matthew, who stood quietly on the spot, withstood the heavy blow from the Thousand Faced Soul Eater.

Feeling the churning in the body, the intensely released holy water was continuously emitting white light.

"Ding, you are attacked by the legendary spell Banshee's Wail!"

"Spell protection determination is in progress..."

"The numerical value is determined as: 25:20..."

"Defense judgment passed!"

"Ding, you lost 135 points of damage and your remaining health is 755!"

"You were unconscious for 0.45 seconds!"

The continuous stinging pain made Matthew, who was in a state of stiffness while wielding the sword, grinning and sucking in a cold breath.

Under the unbelievable gaze of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater, the thunderous magic armor that was constantly glowing only paused for a moment before continuing to swing its sword down.

Pong!
The gray-black round soul shield blocked the heavy blows burning with soul flames.

The soul flames that were constantly devouring mana and soul fragments were stained on the soul shield with Matthew's faint smile.

The sound of "Zizzi" spread.

Waves of screams resounded in the quiet space.

One broken soul after another was burned alive to ashes in the roaring struggle.

The burning flames, following their struggles, infected other souls.

The burning speed of the soul flame is not fast, but it is extremely tenacious and persistent.

The surging soul power covered it, trying to extinguish it, and also bumped into Matthew who was charging up the attack.

But when the substantial negative energy hit Matthew's surroundings, it immediately made a sharp "sizzling" sound, and the originally solid impact instantly dispersed into a gust of breeze.

Matthew, who withstood the impact, felt his body's rapid recovery, avoided the spreading soul flame, and flexibly moved around to the side of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

Sword energy!

The power of thunder!

Soul flame!

The extremely strong attachment damage also broke a big hole in his soul shield.

The swift and violent impact crushed the individual souls that were fused together.

The exploded soul fragments turned into firewood for the soul flame to burn.

The Thousand-faced Soul Eater, who failed to extinguish the fire, looked at the spreading soul flames and gave up the ignited soul in distress.

Those abandoned individual souls regained their self-awareness from the rigidity of blind despair.

However, they were riddled with holes and disappeared in the burning of soul flames before they could say anything.

The moment they disappeared, there was no pain on their faces, but relief and joy of relief lingering on their faces.

The pale golden soul flame greedily devoured them all, leaving behind pieces of crystal soul fragments.

Two flames had just gone out.

The total number of souls owned by Thousand Faced Soul Eater has dropped by 12 points.

Matthew, who was determined, laughed loudly and quickly swung his sword to attack.

His footsteps were nimble and he moved extremely fast, surrounding the soul shield and launching heavy blows continuously.

Every time Matthew attacks, a shield will be ignited.

Thousand-faced Soul Eater must quickly give up the ignited soul individual, otherwise every time it deals about 2 points of damage, it will turn into 3 points of damage after 4 seconds.

The act of giving up the individual soul is equivalent to tearing the soul apart. Even an ancient evil creature like the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater will feel substantial pain.

The Thousand-Faced Soul Eater, who was in pain, naturally would not let Matthew "light fires" everywhere, and reluctantly released various spells in an attempt to repel Matthew.

Since the few spells just now did not achieve the desired effect, the Thousand Faced Soul Eater already knew how difficult Matthew was.

Moreover, Thousand Faced Soul Eater could clearly feel that Matthew's constant release of soul flames vaguely brought him a huge sense of threat.

Death spells and psychic spells came one after another, attacking Matthew continuously.

Matthew's body was covered with 4 to 5 layers of spell shields, and he had no intention of evading. He withstood various attacks and continued to light the soul shield.

In the blink of an eye.

The sparks burning on the soul shield gradually exceeded the cutting speed of the Thousand Faced Soul Eater.

"what……!"

He couldn't help roaring.

After feeling that his power was gradually declining, he did not hesitate to control the dinosaur scouts and ran out of the steel building.

Matthew, who kept getting information about the fragments of divine power, sent warning messages to the special forces members who were fighting.

Afterwards, Matthew used a faster attack frequency to continuously suppress the Thousand-faced Soul Eater who was on fire.

Matthew could clearly feel that Thousand Faced Soul Eater's previous combat experience was very average.

In the confrontation and battle with him, this twisted monster that howled incessantly grew rapidly.

His spell-casting speed continues to increase, and the intensity of his spell-casting also gradually increases.

Moreover, He was no longer passively beaten, and gradually controlled the huge dinosaur body to perform various dodges.

However, all of his attributes are not as good as Matthew's. The dodge effect cannot be said to be absent, but just very average.

Matthew constantly adjusted the rhythm of his attack, maintaining the frequency of lighting fire on him three times per second, and continued to suppress his defense.

Using the soul shield to withstand the burning soul flames, the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater can still survive.

But if you use your body to block the heavy blow of the Sword of Destruction.

Even though the Thousand Faced Soul Eater believed in the body he had spent thousands of years cultivating, he still did not dare to try it easily.

"Divine power information fragment +1..."

"Divine Information Fragments +1..."

"Divinity..."

"Divine power..."

In the face of constant and fruitful attacks, Matthew showed great patience.

Matthew prepared hundreds of various high-level and ultra-level spell scrolls, as well as thousands of bottles of various magic potions and potions.

The Thousand Faced Soul Eater's various attacks and consumption were unable to have much impact on Matthew.

Even though his various combat abilities and skills are constantly improving under Matthew's attacks, he is still at a clear disadvantage.

More than 10 minutes passed.

The Thousand-faced Soul Eater, who can perfectly control his body and make various counterattacks neatly, is still at a disadvantage of being suppressed.

The soul shield protecting Him has ignited several fires.

They burned fiercely, burning the twisted faces and souls into ashes.

Thousand-faced Soul Eater's health has dropped to more than 6000 points.

The constantly burning soul flame is consuming its soul reserves at a faster rate.

Matthew, who was calmly attacking, looked directly into the cold eyes of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

There was no fear or panic in those eyes, only greed and coldness!

Compared to the initial scene of countless souls emerging, the Thousand-faced Soul Eater now has complete control over his body with Matthew's "help".

Now, countless souls and wills have unified their thoughts.

It was also from this moment that the ancient evil creature named Thousand-faced Soul Eater also completed its final retirement and officially made its voice heard in the world.

"soul!!!"

That rich voice was like a unity of countless sound qualities blended together.

It seems to have extremely special power, spreading in all directions.

Matthew detects a special aura power.

It has an extremely twisted property - absorbing souls!
Matthew didn't know the general scope of the halo's influence, but he knew that the battles taking place outside, and even the commotion on Dinosaur Island, would definitely bring a steady stream of souls to the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

This is one of the reasons why ancient evil things are so terrifying!

They are extremely difficult to kill and become stronger over time.

Noticing the souls flying from afar, the milk swallow plunged into the body of the Thousand-faced Soul Eater like a tree.

The blood volume on top of his head quickly began to recover, and even the upper limit of his blood volume began to gradually increase.

In a few minutes, the results of Matthew's attack will disappear without a trace.

The seemingly miserable Thousand-Faced Soul Eater will quickly return to its prime and move towards becoming stronger.

It can be said that free and intact ancient evil things have this ability that makes people helpless. However, Matthew was prepared for this.

Golden soul flames appeared all over his body, and the endless lightning surged into endless lightning chains, spreading wantonly around him.

The soul remnants approaching around him were all hit by the jumping lightning chains.

The soul flames wrapped around them burned them clean.

Matthew was merciful to these very weak souls. He did not burn them completely, but only made them lose their soul power, and thus lost the value and "gravity" to be attracted to the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

That's right, under the influence of the Thousand Faced Soul Eater's "Charming Aura".

The already fragile soul of the dinosaur man, the uncontrollable "self" ran over.

Matthew had been thinking before that the incompleteness and weakness of the dinosaur people's souls were some innate flaws that could not be solved?
But comparing it with other dinosaurs on the surface of Dinosaur Island, combined with the ability of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater, Matthew understood why the entire Dinosaur Island became what it is now.

Back then, after the Goblin Empire was destroyed, Magrubier, the Goblin God who successfully ascended to God at an unimaginable cost, gave a severe lesson to the coalition of "gods".

However, Magrubier, who became a god in this way, may have great sequelae. After the battle, he "disappeared" along with the gods who also suffered great losses.

Dinosaur Island, which has lost all its goblin elites, is also in a very embarrassing and dangerous situation.

The powerful legions outside have been destroyed.

The bugbear rulers used the furnace of life and various technologies to transform into dinosaurs with relatively weak soul power.

They successfully survived with the help of the underground laboratory area on Dinosaur Island.

They even conducted research and experiments for a long period of time, transforming various creatures on Dinosaur Island, as well as more mature and perfect dinosaurs.

If they continue to develop like this, they can really slowly accumulate strength and develop a new dinosaur civilization.

Unfortunately, the sins they had committed before came to them with terrifying resentment and power.

The Thousand Faced Soul Eater is born!

Born out of millions of innocent experimenters!
Born from tens of millions of creatures whose flesh, flesh and souls were devoured!
An evil ritual born when the god Storm God fell and his power was drained away!

Born from the last remnants of the destruction of goblin civilization!
As a result, the dinosaur rulers with weak soul power were easily devoured by the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

The ancient evil being that can occupy the body without being discovered, or can easily control the situation after being discovered, easily controls the underground world of Dinosaur Island.

As for the dinosaurs on the surface of Dinosaur Island.

They may be an evolutionary miracle that has reproduced itself for nearly 8000 years.

Perhaps the Thousand-faced Soul Eater, who has been accumulating strength, wants to slowly devour the souls they continuously contribute until the day he truly matures.

That is now!
As for these dinosaurs underground, they should all be "food" debugged by the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

It allows Him to absorb and control it more easily, and it can also become the power under His control.

Now, the Thousand Faced Soul Eater needs to swallow these foods to defeat Matthew, successfully slaughter the entire dinosaur island, and show his existence to his heart's content.

"Perhaps, the actions of the Cole Elf are also inseparable from the hidden influence of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater."

However, Matthew didn't think so much and got the idea of ​​his trying to destroy Dinosaur Island.

Flashing thunder was emitting from the whole body, and it was surrounding the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater's body at an unstoppable speed.

The surging mana pours out like a tide, maintaining the burning of the soul flame.

The incomplete soul that was burned to ashes provided Matthew with enough mana to recover.

The more contact the Thunder Chain has with the Soul Shield, the greater the damage and destruction caused.

Thousand-faced Soul Eater realized this, and his eyes flashed with bloody red light.

His already strong body became more ferocious and twisted.

He couldn't wait to break out of this cage that blocked his aura, plunder and devour everything he could.

Pong!
The extremely strong soul shield exploded under the burning of the soul flame.

His strong gray-black body withstood the attack of the lightning chain without suffering any damage. He opened his big mouth arrogantly and let out a soul-stirring roar.

"Very spirited, but stupid!"

Crackling!

Just when the blue lightning burning with soul flame was about to disappear.

They suddenly burst into shining light and embedded themselves in the Thousand Faced Soul Eater's skin.

Those sparkling light spots were connected to form a mysterious and translucent magic circle, surrounding it.

Before the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater could struggle, a special power began to flow into his body.

That power has a terrifying contagious power, and all the soul remains that come into contact with that power will recover for a short period of time.

What will souls who have endured torture for thousands of years or more do after they regain their brief consciousness?
Of course it's a rebellion!

Their souls seemed to be ignited, releasing the same power to their heart's content, surrounding and infecting the surrounding souls.

It didn't have any destructive power, and it didn't even cause any damage to the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater's body.

However, all kinds of voices and consciousness began to crazily fill the mind of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater.

He tried to use soul power to destroy those "polluted" souls.

However, not only did it have no effect, but it caused these pollutions like soul flames to quickly spread to the depths of its soul.

The angry Soul Eater with a Thousand Faces showed a very decisive determination and was ready to tear all these souls into pieces and no longer allow them to be digested slowly.

He did it easily, and the tiny fragment of soul was completely unable to resist His power.

The ancient evil thing distorts the soul and will so much that it cannot even notice it.

The last thing these souls had existed was gone.

But they were also freed and no longer had to wail in pain day and night.

But before the Thousand-faced Soul Eater had time to be happy, the power hidden in the depths of his soul exploded with his powerful crushing.

These forces are not destructive, but are very stubborn and have extremely strong "reproduction" capabilities.

After they exploded, they spread all over the area where the souls were located.

Once the soul is contacted by these forces, it will immediately regain consciousness and then "ignite" itself smoothly with the help of a specific program.

These ignited souls will use all the remaining souls to cultivate special powers.

If these souls are complete, or in a stage where their minds are controlled.

There is no way to achieve such "ignition"!
However, special forces and this process form a complementary chain reaction.

Countless souls who longed to be liberated resolutely chose to "disappear".

They may never be able to transform into living beings, ascend to heaven or fall to hell.

But they were able to escape eternal torture and gain final peace and relief.

This power is the soul fire that contains the core of the soul flame.

It is also the creation that Matthew used to establish the core of the Grand Arcanist's career path, unique to him - the arcane fire!
Igniting the arcane fire is a prerequisite for becoming a Grand Arcanist.

To do this, you must first become a super-level arcanist.

Then, you must build a deeper connection with the magic network in the depths of your soul.

But the two sides will not be closely connected. Instead, the arcane fire will break away from the magic network and build its own arrangement of elements, rules, and power.

This requires mastering enough knowledge, possessing strong soul power, mastering systematic spell models and structures, and having a high level of understanding and awareness of the deep magic network.

As it happens, Matthew has it all!
Part of it comes from my own "learning".

Part of it comes from accumulation and collection in the Gulf Territory.

The core part comes from the guidance of the Great Arcanist Kenoman and the clone of the Great Arcanist Iolum.

Unbeknownst to most people, Matthew has already ignited the arcane fire. As long as he chooses the corresponding path, he can successfully become a Grand Arcanist!

And Matthew lit the arcane fire and chose the path that suited him best.

There is no amplification of spells.

There is no control over the deepening of the Ley Line.

There is also no skill in mastering knowledge.

Only the most basic and simple points.

Purify!
create!
The Purifying Flame has many uses for Matthew.

It allows Matthew to always "maintain" his best condition and not be silently polluted and controlled by some high-ranking beings.

First of all, you have to survive before you can think about other things.

Now, it can also be used to "offend", allowing the Thousand-faced Soul Eater, who is not afraid of coldness, to taste the backlash from "food".

Although doing so will not cause fatal damage to the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater, it will greatly consume its soul reserves and cause it to decline in strength.

Matthew maintained the burst of arcane fire, allowing it to continuously weaken the accumulated power of the Many-Faced Soul Eater.

Moreover, it uses its own "burning" power to temporarily imprison its body.

This special technique is the soul sealing technique that Matthew learned from old swordsmen.

Swordsmen can rely on the effect of soul sealing to weaken the control of some evil creatures and monsters over their bodies.

Destroy their bodies first, reducing their combat effectiveness and recovery capabilities.

Then seal their souls, contain and ban them.

If the sealer is strong enough, he can rely on his tenacious will, combined with the swordsman's more secret skills, and abundant resources, to kill and digest evil objects and monsters bit by bit.

In the end, the sealed person can not only master the power of evil objects and monsters, but also achieve a huge breakthrough in strength and complete further tempering of body and mind.

While temporarily imprisoning the Soul Eater in front of him, an engraved pattern on Matthew's body seemed to come alive, glowing brightly.

It was a one-eyed dragon. It opened its eyes very calmly, reflecting the Thousand-faced Soul Eater in its eyes, and then slowly closed it.

The Thousand Faced Soul Eater, who had already integrated all his strength and will, suddenly felt that gaps between himself and his solid core were falling apart.

The deathly malice of the goblin elite.

The hatred of beings being destroyed.

The remaining thoughts of the severance of civilization.

The gods are unwilling to fall.

They all let out their own "roars"!
The originally unified power also fell apart at this moment.

The main will of the Thousand-Faced Soul Eater was dispersed and disappeared without being destroyed.

The last scene he saw was Matthew with countless lightning chains protruding from his body, dragging his bloated and twisted body and merging with the patterns on his skin.

"Kill" Him!
It's Zhulong!
It's time!
