Chapter 1031 Celestial-Level Cruel Angel

"Just what kind of master do you have, Supreme Leader Cindertail? Could he be a true dragon in human skin?" Goldenstride wondered with shock.

Leon's Paragon-level dragon aura was not hidden during his battle.

Even though he was quite far in the sky, the Goldenstride and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis could all perceive it with their Paragon-level senses.

"I don't really know myself. I've only known Master for less than a week. However, I do suspect that Master is a dragon. At the very least, he is a dragon among men," Cindertail replied.

His words left Goldenstride even more shocked after he heard it.

Computing all the information together…

It would mean that Cindertail's master helped Cindertail rise from Peak Rank 2 Transcendent to Late Paragon and awakened his bloodline ability in less than a week!

Just what kind of crazy method did Cindertail's master use to produce such ridiculous results?

"Your master is… incredible!" Goldenstride uttered in awe.

…

Meanwhile, Leon faced the remaining nine Cruel Angels in the sky.

After the nine Cruel Angels 'ate' one of their own, they increased their size and strength. But at the same time, they also increased their burden, lowering their response and coordination again.

The Cruel Angels pursued Leon in an event more clumsy manner.

As Leon evaded their encirclement, Leon frowned.

While it wasn't difficult to survive the nine Cruel Angels' relentless attacks, it wasn't easy to defeat them without his trump cards either.

At that moment, his seared hands had already recovered from holding the overheating Quasi Tier-7 Fire Lamp.

However, he couldn't keep relying on the White Luminosity Eternal Flame. Each time it was used, the durability of the Quasi Tier-7 Fire Lamp would decrease.

"I suppose I should use this chance to test the full extent of my Paragon-level Death Law," Leon mused.

Seeing how the nine Cruel Angels continued to pursue him recklessly, Leon reached out his hand and gave the Cruel Angels an appetizer of the Death Law by blasting them directly with the power of death.

He used the simplest application of the Death Law.

The net-like black energy was like a visible plague of death and desolation; it swept over the nine Cruel Angels in an instance.

At the same time, the nine Cruel Angels didn't put up a single form of defense at the death power. They took the brunt of the death power and completely relied on their powerful regeneration to overcome it.

However, the power of death was too overbearing.

Damaged cells can still be regenerated, but dead cells don't come back to life—not unless the Life Law was involved.

The power of death continuously eroded the Cruel Angels' flesh, killing all their cells. Although the Cruel Angel's powerful regeneration quickly replaced the dead cells with new ones, the dead cells were lost forever.

Leon watched as the Cruel Angels regenerated while black rotting flesh spread and broke off from their bodies.

Over time, the death power eating away at the Cruel Angels' bodies lost their strength and eventually disappeared—but not before the Cruel Angels lost much of their masses, causing their overall sizes to shrink noticeably.

"It seems the Death Law is the bane of all creatures with regenerative specialties," Leon mused.

Nevertheless, Cruel Angels' rage rose to unprecedented heights after suffering miserably under Leon's attack. They glared at Leon venomously.

However, they didn't attack him.

Instead, they turned on each other and devoured one another; all nine Cruel Angels went at each other's necks like they were their worse enemies. They didn't stop until they had one sole survivor.

Leon watched the scene unfold with a frown.

If it was any other creatures killing each other, he would have thought that they had a deep grudge against one another.

However, it was a different story for the Cruel Angels, which were under the heavy influence of the Wrath Law.

They killed each other to become stronger.

The final victor absorbed the other eight Cruel Angels' bodies and morphed into a more powerful and bigger entity.

It was at least fivefold bigger than the normal Half-step Celestial-level Cruel Angel.

At that point in time, Leon suspected the Cruel Angel had even obtained the strength of a Celestial after its final amalgamation.

However, the Celestial-level Cruel Angel was so big and heavy that its small wings couldn't support its immense weight.

It quickly plunged towards the abyss below.

Roar!

The Celestial-level Cruel Angel let out an earth-shattering roar of fury, shaking the very sky and nearly bursting Leon's eardrums as the distance between them increased further and further.

Nevertheless, Leon managed to endure through the earth-shattering roar.

Boom!

A very distant yet heavy crash was heard sometime after the Celestial-level Cruel Angel disappeared into the abyss, followed by an updraft of wind rushing out of the abyss shortly after.

Calculating the drop speed and time interval of the crash, Leon estimated the abyss was around 15-thousand feet deep.

It was the deepest subterranean region Leon had come across on the dark continent; it must have passed through many subterranean layers.

Nevertheless, Leon took advantage of the Celestial-level Cruel Angel's absence to completely seal the hole in the sky and stop the downpour of Wrathful Demon Energy from entering the dark continent.

Leon made a mental note that he would reopen the hole to continue his cultivation after everything was settled. It was a very excellent source of dark energy.

Roar!

During that time, the Celestial-level Cruel Angel rampaged at the bottom of the abyss, causing the surface ground to tremble from time to time.

It was unknown what else lies within the depths of the abyss, but the chatters of numerous bird-like creatures were heard.

"Master, are you going to enter the abyss?" Cindertail quickly asked as Leon descended to the ground level and stared down at the abyss.

"Of course," Leon stated as a matter of fact.

"A scourge like this Celestial-level Cruel Angel has to be killed as soon as possible. Who knows how strong it would continue to grow if we leave it be?"
