Chapter 532 -The Tenacious Demon General
John's ability to instantly defeat a Destruction attribute demon general delighted Ocean Sage immensely. He appeared even more powerful than she had anticipated. It seemed that the crisis South Harbor was facing could indeed be successfully resolved.
As for the other three demon generals, they had underestimated John's strength earlier. The remaining Destruction attribute demon general wasn't as arrogant as before; he appeared to be contemplating his defensive strategy.
John didn't grant the demon generals too much time for deliberation. After ensuring his own state was stable, he initiated the second round of attacks.
In the second round of attacks, John initiated with the use of "[Abyssal Prison]." He chose this skill because he believed it was crucial to ensure that the Dark Magus and Dark Warlock could not provide assistance to the forefront Destruction attribute demon general.
The dark spells cast by these two spellcasting demon generals were still quite potent. Without the aid of the Book of the Astral Realm and the Sea God's blessing, John's previous attack wouldn't have been as effective as it was.
As the effects of "Abyssal Prison" took hold, the Destruction attribute demon general found himself in a state of panic. He could sense that the other two demon generals might not be able to offer him quick assistance. Therefore, the Destruction attribute demon general opted to hurl his massive hammer, a weapon infused with powerful dark power.
After all, these weapons were all forged within the Dark Realm and absorbed a considerable amount of dark power at the moment of their creation. The giant hammer struck the barrier created by the "Abyssal Prison" spell directly. To John's surprise, the barrier displayed a slight crack.
While John's astonished expression was brief, the demons were exceptionally perceptive to the emotional changes of humans. The Dark Warlock and Dark Magus demon generals quickly sensed that John might not have full control over the current situation.
The Dark Warlock swiftly eliminated all the demons around him, summoning a powerful dark power puppet at the cost of those demons' lives. Meanwhile, the Dark Magus chose not to summon minions but instead decided to confront the massive tsunami summoned by Ocean Sage.
Although Ocean Sage's recent tsunami attack did not directly threaten the Demon Generals, it had the potential to eliminate lower-level demons that were not as high in rank. Without these lower-ranking demons, the Demon Generals' plans couldn't succeed.
Ocean Sage didn't stand idly by during John's actions. After summoning a powerful tsunami, she engaged in direct combat with the Dark Magus. The Dark Magus and Ocean Sage's strengths were nearly identical, making it impossible to determine a clear victor quickly in their battle. Moreover, their battle affected some lower-level members from both sides.
After the initial shock at John's arrival, both the Dark Faction and the Order Faction members had regained their composure and were now fully utilizing their abilities to join the battle.
John's second round of attacks didn't yield immediate success, prompting him to abandon the idea of a swift victory. Instead, he aimed to use his superior strength compared to the Destruction attribute Demon General and the Dark Warlock to eliminate them first. After dealing with these two Demon Generals, John could easily cooperate with Ocean Sage to finish off the last one, the Dark Magus.
However, during the ensuing battle, John suddenly realized that these Demon Generals were proving to be quite formidable opponents. Although the Destruction attribute Demon General was not as strong as John in direct combat, with the assistance of the Dark Warlock, he managed to hold his own. On the other hand, the Dark Magus seemed to have gained the upper hand.
Facing this situation, John felt that he couldn't afford to play it too safe. He decided to tap into the power of the Book of the Astral Realm once more within a short period. When John brought out the Book of the Astral Realm for the second time, he could sense its power overflowing. Without further hesitation, he used the Book of the Astral Realm again and unleashed a highly potent sealing spell.
As the sealing spell recorded in the Book of the Astral Realm was triggered, four pillars of light appeared around the Destruction attribute Demon General. These four pillars instantly combined to form an impregnable seal, completely imprisoning the Destruction attribute Demon General.
Upon seeing the successful sealing spell, John immediately retrieved the Book of the Astral Realm. During this process, the overflow of power from the book had already had some impact on him. John could see on his data panel that his health had dropped by approximately one-third. If he continued to use the Book of the Astral Realm, it would undoubtedly lead to his rapid demise.
With John successfully sealing the Destruction attribute Demon General, the Dark Warlock realized the situation was dire and decided to make a run for it. However, John was not going to let the Dark Warlock escape easily.
"Now you want to run? Isn't it a bit too late for that? Since you dared to attack the Order Faction, be prepared to be thoroughly eliminated!" John directly threw two divine scrolls towards the Dark Warlock. Both of these divine scrolls were of the ocean attribute.
After the two divine scrolls took effect, all the water elementals surrounding South Harbor converged and formed an enormous water elemental construct.
The massive water elemental construct not only absorbed all the surrounding water elementals but also successfully froze most of the lower-level demons. While the Dark Warlock's level was high enough to prevent himself from being frozen by the water elemental, his movement speed was significantly affected.
Taking advantage of the Dark Warlock's slowed movements, John chose to go all out and completely eliminate him. John's incredible speed overwhelmed the Dark Warlock, who couldn't even summon a defense spell in time before being eliminated by John.
With two Demon Generals successfully eliminated, John turned his attention to Ocean Sage. The Dark Magus, who had been in battle with Ocean Sage, had disappeared.
Ocean Sage's current condition appeared to be in a dire state, and John teleported in front of him, asking, "What happened? Are you alright in your current state?"
John could tell that Ocean Sage had sustained severe injuries, but he couldn't understand why Ocean Sage hadn't defeated the Dark Magus. Wasn't the Dark Magus's strength on par with Ocean Sage's? Did the Dark Magus hide his true power during their previous battle? n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
John couldn't come up with the answers to these questions in such a short time, so he had to rely on Ocean Sage's response.
Ocean Sage wasted no time and immediately described his battle with the Dark Magus. From Ocean Sage's account, John could see that the Dark Magus was indeed much more powerful than he had initially thought. The Dark Magus not only dispelled Ocean Sage's massive tsunami but also gained the upper hand in their battle, severely injuring Ocean Sage.
Given the current situation, it seemed that Ocean Sage wouldn't be able to continue the fight in the short term. John could only quickly deal with the remaining demons in South Harbor and then swiftly return to Storm City.
