Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

John swiftly removed his invisibility mask, recognizing its limitations. While it provided concealment, it also restricted a player's ability to unleash their full power. He then activated his "Winning Domain," a special ability that allowed him to exhibit the perfect attack form of his most powerful spells.

Simultaneously, John unleashed a barrage of offensive spells, each with varying attributes, making it impossible for the surrounding demons to effectively defend against the onslaught. His strategic move thwarted the prepared demons, preventing them from quickly overpowering the group.

After successfully repelling the first wave of demonic attacks, John turned to Adam and Blue Sea, "We can't hesitate any longer. Let's seize this chance to escape. If we linger here, stronger demons will surely come, and we might lose any opportunity to flee."

Adam and Blue Sea were acutely aware of the urgency. Following John's successful counterattack, they were already prepared to make a swift retreat from the dangerous situation.

Their quick response and readiness to adapt underscored the importance of decision-making and teamwork in the face of unexpected and perilous circumstances, especially when navigating the treacherous terrains of the Dark Realm. Their escape was not just a retreat but a strategic move to reassess and plan their next course of action against the Dark Faction.

Under John's leadership, they quickly dashed out of the Styx Town training field and entered the wilderness of the Dark Realm. It was clear to them that heading towards Styx Town was not an option, as this would undoubtedly bring them under attack from more powerful demons residing there.

After a brief hesitation, the trio decided to head towards the teleportation point of the Dark Realm. Reaching this point would allow them to return directly to a neutral zone's teleportation hub. From there, they could proceed to the teleportation point of the Naga tribe. Once they reached the Naga tribe, their safety would be largely assured.

Moving swiftly, they encountered no significant danger on their way to the teleportation point, though they did see some weaker demons. However, these lesser demons did not dare to challenge them. Eventually, John, Adam, and Blue Sea safely reached the teleportation point of the Dark Realm.

At the teleportation point, they encountered a formidable opponent, a demon who was indeed a match for them – one of the seventy-two Devils, the Corruptor, Veltas. As a Devil, Veltas had an immense and distorted form, as if his skin had been entirely corroded by a highly corrosive substance. His eyes, one red and one green, appeared exceptionally terrifying in the lightless environment of the Dark Realm.

The sudden appearance of Veltas posed a significant threat to their escape plan. As a powerful member of the Devils, Veltas could potentially obstruct their return to safety, turning their journey back to the Naga tribe into a perilous battle for survival.

As Veltas noticed John and his companions arriving, he let out a nauseating laugh, seemingly delighted at the prospect of finally having a chance to eliminate John. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"I've heard about you from others. Many Devils believe that your strength is immense, unbeatable even. But in my opinion, as a mere mortal, you can't be that powerful. The other Devils are just too incompetent. Seeing your performance today only reaffirms my belief. They lost to you simply because they were too weak. I won't make the same mistake. My power is undoubtedly superior to yours.

But don't be too afraid. Even if defeated by me, you will become part of my body. Your power will still serve a purpose."

As Veltas spoke, he began to emit powerful corrosive spells all around him. These spells were so potent that they even started to form smaller demons, manifesting the extent of his formidable and destructive abilities.

Faced with this dire situation, John, Adam, and Blue Sea had to quickly devise a strategy. They were not only confronting a powerful Devil but also an environment increasingly being saturated with corrosive power, challenging their chances of a successful escape. The ensuing confrontation with Veltas was not just a battle of strength but also of wits and resilience.

As the newly spawned demons charged towards John and his companions, their obvious goal was to weaken their strength. Created by Veltas, these demons were instinctively loyal to their creator and were now acting on his command to assail the intruders.

Both Adam and Blue Sea were visibly terrified in the face of Veltas, the Corruptor. They had encountered a Devil before and had seen one repelled by John, but this situation was markedly different. Here they were in the Dark Realm, face-to-face with a Devil, whose powers were undoubtedly magnified in this domain. Their inclination was to focus solely on defense, hoping that a successful defense might provide an opportunity to bypass Veltas and reach the teleportation point.

John, however, had more considerations in mind and did not share the inherent fear of Devils like his companions. He regarded Devils as adversaries he had overcome before. Even with the increased power Veltas might possess in the Dark Realm, John was confident of his chances.

Without hesitation, John chose to launch an offensive against Veltas. He believed that the smaller demons summoned by Veltas were manageable threats that Adam and Blue Sea could handle. This strategic decision to take the fight directly to Veltas indicated John's tactical acumen and his confidence in both his own abilities and those of his companions. The battle was not just a fight for survival, but also a crucial test of their strength and resolve in the face of overwhelming odds.

John transformed into a streak of blue light, instantly appearing in front of Veltas, the Corruptor, and launched a full-scale assault. Veltas seemed taken aback by the intensity of John's attack, which exceeded his expectations.

However, Veltas, confident in his dark power within the Dark Realm, believed he could repel any member of the Order Faction using this immense force. As Veltas unleashed his formidable dark power, the surrounding areas of the Dark Realm began to warp and distort, indicating his attempt to summon other Devils.

Realizing this, John swiftly responded by casting Abyssal Prison. This spell began to counteract the spatial distortions caused by Veltas, gradually stabilizing the area. However, this move played into Veltas's strategy, as he wanted John to be distracted, hoping to seize an opportunity to eliminate him during a moment of inattention.

Veltas concentrated his power and unleashed a corrosive spell that sent a beam of destructive light towards John. John's health points began to rapidly decrease under this attack. While John didn't sense immediate danger, to Adam and Blue Sea, John's situation seemed perilous.

In this critical moment, the battle's outcome hung in the balance. John needed to find a way to counter Veltas's overwhelming dark power and corrosive attacks, while Adam and Blue Sea had to determine how best to support John without falling prey to the surrounding dangers themselves. The confrontation with Veltas was not just a physical battle but a test of their ability to adapt and overcome in a realm where the odds were heavily stacked against them.

Adam and Blue Sea could only watch as John was engulfed in the corrosive spell's light, his form seemingly dissolving under its influence. They hesitated, uncertain whether to assist John. They questioned if they could help without compromising their own safety.

In the midst of their indecision, John skillfully used a magical scroll from his pocket to restore himself to optimal condition. "It seems I underestimated your strength," John admitted, addressing Veltas. "You are indeed more powerful than other Devils, perhaps due to your constant presence in the Dark Realm."

John acknowledged that Veltas was stronger than the other Devils he had encountered, but he did not believe he would be vanquished in the Dark Realm. He had prepared for such a scenario upon entering the realm. At the Dark Realm's teleportation point, John had set a teleportation beacon as a precautionary measure.

This strategic foresight allowed John to have an escape route, ensuring that even in dire situations, he retained the option to retreat and regroup. His readiness to adapt to the volatile and dangerous environment of the Dark Realm was a testament to his experience and tactical thinking in such high-stakes confrontations.

John's strategic placement of a teleportation beacon meant he had a reliable escape route in case of an insurmountable crisis. With a swift blink, he returned to a position close to Adam and Blue Sea. He handed them each a teleportation scroll, saying, "It's unwise for us to battle a Devil here in the Dark Realm, where their power is significantly enhanced. We need to get back to the other side of the teleportation point as soon as possible. Tear these scrolls and follow my lead immediately."

After delivering these instructions, John promptly tore his scroll. In an instant, he vanished from sight. Adam and Blue Sea, understanding the gravity of the situation, didn't hesitate. They too tore their scrolls, disappearing alongside John.
