63: Chapter 63 Black Flame Knight!

The moment Lu Yin's voice fell, violent energy surged within the pitch-black magic circle.

A tall figure clad in knightly armor, burning with pitch-black flames, slowly stepped out from the energy vortex.

He held a spear in one hand and a massive shield in the other; his heavy frame was like an insurmountable barrier.

Just as Tastin's greatsword was about to strike down, the figure stepping out from the pitch-black circle moved.

The massive shield in his hand, covered in eerie runes, suddenly lunged forward.

Thick, ink-like black flames erupted from the shield's surface, colliding with the Wraith Greatsword.

Boom!

Time seemed to freeze for an instant, only to explode in the next second!

Tastin's pupils shrank violently; he had completely failed to expect that Lu Yin was hiding such a powerful summoned creature.

The shockwave from the collision between the greatsword and the Black Flame Great Shield caused spiderweb-like cracks to erupt across the ground.

-274,891!

A massive damage number floated above Tastin's head as he was blasted back over a hundred meters.

It was only by violently flapping his bone wings that he barely managed to stop his retreating figure.

"You! This is impossible!" Tastin was filled with shock and rage, a look of gravity appearing in his crimson eyes for the first time.

He never imagined that Lu Yin was still hiding such a terrifying summoned creature.

Lu Yin smiled faintly, his gaze sweeping over the newly summoned Death Legion Commander.

"My Lord..."

Kasa knelt on one knee before Lu Yin, like a most loyal believer.

The moment Kasa knelt, a fierce light flashed in Tastin's eyes.

"Playing God!"

His bone wings snapped open as gray-black abyssal energy surged out like a tide, and the wailing of the wraiths on his greatsword became even more shrill.

"Thousand Souls Heart-Devourer!"

Countless wraiths detached from the blade, turning into distorted ghostly faces that lunged toward Lu Yin, blotting out the sky.

However, Kasa slammed his massive shield heavily into the ground.

"Ring of Black Flame!"

Buzz!

The pitch-black flames expanded in a ring; the wraiths that collided with the fire let out piercing screams and were incinerated in the blink of an eye.

Tastin's expression turned even uglier; he hadn't expected his move to be neutralized so easily.

"This..."

Not far away, Balna's face was full of disbelief; he simply couldn't understand it.

How could a Professional who had just reached Level 20 summon such a terrifying creature?

Yet Lu Yin actually had an even stronger trump card he hadn't used yet.

The converted Ars now had attributes in the millions, making him significantly stronger than the current Yarberna and Kasa.

However, Lu Yin knew this was only temporary.

As his own power gradually increased, the Legion Commanders would only become more terrifying.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be his only ten Legion Commanders.

"My turn."

On the other side, the moment the Ring of Black Flame expanded, Kasa's shield-bearing figure suddenly blurred.

In the next instant, he appeared before Tastin, his long spear thrusting out with a whistle that tore through the air!

"Abolition Spiral!"

The black flames wrapped around the spear tip spun rapidly, turning into a destructive drill.

Tastin hurriedly blocked with his sword, the Wraith Greatsword and the Black Flame Spear colliding with an ear-piercing explosion.

-301,457!

Another massive damage number floated up; Tastin was sent staggering back by this spear strike, and the wraiths on his blade dimmed significantly.

"Damn it... what kind of monster is this!" Tastin was both shocked and enraged.

He was a mid-tier Abyssal Demon General, yet he was being completely suppressed by the summoned creature of a Level 20 human Professional!

The moment Tastin was forced back, Kasa raised his long spear high.

"Black Flame Knights!"

Surging black flames swept out, transforming into ten Black Flame Cavalrymen.

At the same time, Kasa roared: "Black Flame Incarnation!"

Thick black flames enveloped him; when he revealed himself again, besides the black flames burning all over his body, a Black Flame Warhorse had appeared beneath him.

"Thousand Army Charge!"

The warhorse neighed amidst Kasa's roar.

The ten Black Flame Cavalrymen and Kasa turned into eleven black streaks of light, charging toward Tastin with a momentum that tore through space.

Everywhere they passed, the ground was plowed into deep furrows, and the air was filled with a scorched scent.

The eleven black lights magnified rapidly in Tastin's eyes; he snapped his bone wings shut, wrapping himself into a massive bone cocoon.

Gray-black abyssal energy flowed frantically over the surface of the bone wings, forming a thick layer of protection.

Rumble!

The eleven black streaks of light slammed into the bone cocoon; the resulting energy impact twisted the space within a hundred-meter radius.

-484,721!

-202,134!

...

A series of startling damage numbers floated up from the bone cocoon, and fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the bone wings.

"Impossible! How could I lose to a Level 20 ant!" Tastin's hysterical roar echoed from within the bone cocoon.

Crack!

The bone cocoon finally couldn't withstand the impact and shattered with a bang.

Pfft!

Tastin sprayed a mouthful of blood, the look of fear in his eyes spreading uncontrollably.

This scene didn't just stun Balna; even the other examinees who had previously fallen into despair were dumbfounded.

Even for a beast, this is too fierce, isn't it?!

Is this really a peer who awakened at the same time as them?!

Just as Kasa was about to deliver the fatal blow to Tastin, the entire illusion tower shook violently.

Outside, Hong Feng had completed his three minutes of mana condensation.

His hair and beard were flared out, and the mana surging around him had condensed into a physical form.

The staff in his hand trembled violently, and the crystal at its tip burst forth with a light that pierced the sky.

"Ancient Forbidden Curse: Dimensional Severance!"

Hong Feng's voice was like rolling thunder, exploding between heaven and earth.

As his staff swung down, a white curtain of light spanning heaven and earth appeared out of thin air!

Like a blade swung by a god, it instantly split the entire world in two!

And that cut happened to sever the four-sided barrier formed by Abyssal Power, as well as the thousand-mile-long abyssal rift in the sky.

Losing the continuous energy supply from the abyssal rift, the four-sided barrier shattered like glass, and the pervading abyssal aura suddenly diminished.

This sudden turn of events caused Athos's originally calm expression to change slightly.

However, he did not panic; Hong Feng could cut off the energy from the abyssal rift, but he could not sever the connection between Athos and the Abyss.

If he wanted to flee, he could open an Abyssal Passage again at any time.

But before that, he needed to confirm whether Balna and Tastin had accomplished their goal for this trip.

However, just as he was about to use his spiritual power to communicate with the two Demon Generals,

The body of the illusion tower seemed to suffer a violent impact from the inside.

A corner of the tower burst open under an overwhelming force.

Immediately following, two wretched figures came scrambling out like madmen.

The moment Athos saw those two figures clearly, his usually calm pupils suddenly constricted.
