Chapter 568: Demonic Array

"Did these proud birds suddenly go stupid?" Leon immediately frowned while the Supreme Elder healed his back with Transcendent Wood Energy. 

Kree! Kree!

The Blue Luan's cried shortly after diving into the surging walls of golden flames! 

Their frigid mist could not resist the intense heat!

"Isn't this actually pretty bad? The Three-Legged Golden Crow's rise to the Paragon level after its awakening..." Aria frowned at the rising aura and pressure. 

"Kek…" Duna let out a soft snicker. 

"Did I say something wrong?" Aria's brows creased at Duna's response, "Paragons are not to be taken lightly."

"It might be bad for these pompous snow birds if they continue to suicide like this, but not for us—At least, nothing will go wrong with me around. At worse, I will just wipe it out with my power," Duna casually added.

Leon furrowed his brows at Duna's words.

With Duna's Supreme Law of Destruction, he did not doubt for a moment that she would not be able to slay a Paragon-level Three-Legged Golden Crow. 

However, her corporeal would crumble from the side effects of using the Destruction Law every time. The greater the power, the more severity of the damage.

Duna is casual about these matters due to her excellent tolerance and fortitude, but he knew that such damages would cause an average person immense pain and suffering. 

Leon did not want to put Duna through this. 

"No, you don't need to intervene in this matter," Leon spoke to Duna before he added, "I will handle this." 

"And what can you do? You might be strong, but are you stronger than those Peak Rank 2 Transcendent Blue Luans over there? Just a bit of contact with the golden flames, and you nearly lost your life…" Duna slowly stopped speaking upon seeing Leon's warm smile.

Leon waited patiently before he said, "There are multiple solutions for this problem, actually. Three-Legged Golden Crow is awakening its bloodline and becoming strong as we speak, but even if it achieves the Paragon-level, I can still do something about it…"

"The first method is to give the Three-Legged Golden Crow an equally strong opponent to deal with. With my medical and alchemic knowledge, there's a high chance I can help the Blue Luans awaken their bloodline." Leon stated.

"However, the Blue Luans are neither our friend nor our allies. We are simply working together to take out a common enemy. There's no need for me to boost their strength if it cannot be used by us…" Leon continued. 

"That's not a bad choice to make." Duna nodded before inputting her opinion, "Even Paragons can go berserk due to the Wrathful Demonic Energy in the atmosphere. With these cocky birds' attitude, they wouldn't stick around to be human pets to express their gratefulness. There's no point exhausting your energy and resources on them." 

"Right, and if they turn berserk and come back to bite us, it'll be troublesome instead, huh?" The Supreme Elder mused before turning to Leon, "So what does the young prince intend to do?"

"I will smite it with the power of the Heavenly Tribulation," Leon glanced up at the sky filled with hidden Wrathful Demonic Energy. 

"Oh?" Supreme Elder Haldir was slightly surprised before he queried, "But young prince already has a little miss Heavenly Tribulation right here. Are you sure the power of Heavenly Tribulation will be enough to smite the Three-Legged Golden Crow?"

Aria turned to Leon in question, "What Heavenly Tribulation are you two talking about? If the Heavenly Tribulation is endured, wouldn't the Three-Legged Golden Crow be propelled into the Celestial Realm instead?" 

"We are not talking about True Divine Damnation undergone by Void Realm Divine Practitioners breaking through to Divine Origin Realm. You'll see what I mean soon," Leon rubbed Aria's head with a soft smile before he turning back to the Supreme Elder, "Have you forgotten how the Ant King was fried?"

"Young prince, not matter, the Ant King was extremely mighty, but it was still a Rank 2 Transcendent. Here, we are talking about a potential Rank 3 Transcendent now. It should not be viewed the same, no?"

"That's true," Leon nodded before saying, "I guess we will just have to see how effective it turns out, won't we?" 

After a slight smile, Leon took off into the skies and flew straight into the clouds above the surging pillar of golden flames that fluctuated like a pulse.

"Last time the Tier 3 Spiritual Array Heaven's Wrath was used, it was not charged to its maximum strength. But this time will be much different," Leon mused. 

The last time he smited the Ant King, he burrowed Spirit Energy from the World Tree to produce the Tier 3 Spiritual Array. 

"This time, I will be using the destructive power of Demonic Energy. I wonder what sort of effect it will produce?" Leon wondered. 

Wrathful Demonic Energy quickly gathered under Leon's Divine Will before they began to form runic lines. Lines after lines of glowing red light soon connected, forming runic circles of big and small size. 

Demonic Energy poured out from Leon's Black Vortex Space to further fuel the formation of his Tier 3 Spiritual Array—No, Demonic Array. 

In a short instance, the three-layered Demonic Array was completed. 

Upon its completion, the surrounding weather immediately changed. The wind grew stronger, and the clouds were pulled over, becoming darker and more ominous. 

Bzzt!

The first flash of lightning was quickly seen within the thunderclouds where the Tier 3 Demonic Array floated from Leon's grasp.

However, it was neither blue, purple, nor white. Instead, it was a bright crimson color with hints of darkness. 

A Blue Luan quickly flew over and interrogated, "What demonic art is this? Human, what exactly are you planning to do?!"

The three-layered Demonic Array drew in the surrounding Wrathful Demonic Energies and continuously expanded, transforming into a vast three-layered magic circle that hung overhead in the sky.

"Charging up a powerful attack that will slay the Three-Legged Golden Crow obviously! You should bring your kin away from this area and protect me from the other Three-Legged Golden Crows while I charge this Demonic Array!" Leon spoke.
