Extraordinary Pedigree.

Chapter 758: Second Stage Demon

The aura of [Snake-riding Shepherd] and [Lord of Out of Control] became more violent and terrifying as the second stage of the demon was activated.

The power of blasphemy surged in the air like an invisible storm, shrouding everything around it in shadow.

Weiss's body twisted violently, his snake-scaled skin shining with a strange metallic luster.

The long whip made of entangled snakes became more active in his hands. Countless snake shadows stretched out and swam from it, and even extended to the ground, looking for the next prey.

This originally handsome man now had extremely asymmetrical eyes. One eyeball was bulging and blood red, while the other was sunken in the eye socket, emitting an uncomfortable dark yellow light.

The shepherd demon's mouth was stretched to an almost impossible angle, and his face was covered with dark blue veins.

"Ahahahaha! The power of the magic network, more... give me more!"

Weiss laughed maniacally, his voice hoarse and raspy.

A series of magic network permissions were forcibly opened.

[Spell Interference/On]

[Spell Enhancement/Open]

【Fissure repair/open】

[Spell Flexibility/Open]

【Capacity increase/open】

[Magic Net Field/Open]

[Hostile Area Shield/On]

【Capacity deprivation/on】

【Permission adjustment/enable】

[Anti-detection barrier/on]

【Regional restrictions/open】

Layers of overlapping waves emerged in the air, which was the terrifying reaction when the magic network's authority was fully activated.

August, who was covered by trees, became even more insane and mentally deranged when the Sage's Magic Net was opened. Too many fields caused his brain capacity to be insufficient.

August's face could no longer be called a face. Vines and branches grew wildly from his jaw, extending into a circle of tentacle-like wooden beard.

These tentacles sometimes opened and sometimes closed, and the branches growing on his trunk were hung with strange red and purple fruits.

These fruits are expanding and cracking all the time, emitting corrosive poisonous mist.

August's voice was low and hoarse, revealing an uncontrollable madness:

"The great blasphemous power is merging into my flesh and blood... a little more, a little more!"

Although the lives and spirits of the two were being devoured by the power of blasphemy, they seemed to be unconcerned about the fatal price.

They cater to this power and even go crazy about it.

The full power of the magic network made their figures even more terrifying, like monsters crawling out of the abyss, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Xia Xiu stood in front of the thick blasphemous atmosphere and felt the strong oppression brought by the full opening of the magic net.

He felt a dull pain in his temple. The full opening of the magic net was like an invisible net, trying to wrap him in.

He could feel certain permissions trying to penetrate his defenses - especially [Capacity Deprivation] and [Hostile Field Shielding] which were eroding his etheric barrier and linking with the crystal wall system, trying to expel him.

This constant interference in authority made him feel like he was being peeled off layer by layer from the outside world, as if a hand was trying to push him out of the Naga Ring.

His golden pupils shrank slightly, and a series of rapidly scrolling digital module system prompts appeared in his eye frames, flashing like streams of light.

An even brighter lumen appeared behind the halo, and the [Triple Crown] was accurately scanning and decoding the fluctuations in the magic network's authority.

——【System prompt】——

Burning your own spirituality to stop me... a stupid choice." Xia Xiu murmured.

On the other side, the two demonized Kailasels became even more arrogant when they saw the "struggling" Fourth Sword Bearer of Heaven.

The half-human, half-snake Weiss spit out his snake tongue and looked at the Dark Lord who was protected by three incarnations in front of him. His body was winding and his tail was sliding on the ground, making a creepy friction sound. He sneered:

"Hugh Abraham, see!"

He raised his twisted head, and his voice echoed sharply and harshly in this ruined land:
"Did you see it? Did you see it clearly?!"

Weiss slowly opened his arms, as if to show his half-human, half-snake form after fusing with the devil.

His body, covered with fine scales, reflected an eerie luster under the shadows and firelight. The flame cloak behind him moved without wind, burning with endless flames.

"This is the power of the Sage Network and the Named Ones, this is the power of the Kaylasel family, this is the power of ancient magic!"

His voice became increasingly high-pitched, trying to impose this overwhelming sense of superiority on the Dark Lord:
"Relax~~~
We will be able to achieve the 10 billion ether floating point computing efficiency that the [Authoritarian Module] in your lineage pursues.

Those foolish humans could never reach the pinnacle in their entire lives, but we can surpass it with just a thought!"

Weiss, whose brain was corrupted by the power of blasphemy and whose IQ was obviously low, has lost the fear and terror he had when he first faced the Fourth Sword-Bearer of Heaven.

This might be another price of the power of blasphemy. Xia Xiu, who was sitting opposite him, seemed to see the status bar numbers constantly appearing above the heads of the two high-energy Kailasel family members: -
100 IQ -
100 IQ
+100 Strength -
100 IQ
Weiss and August had no idea what the Dark Lord in front of them was thinking about them in his heart, but they were having a blast anyway!
Weiss was still immersed in this state. He continued to twist his ugly body confidently and spit out more information.

"And - this is not our limit! Our sage has stronger network permissions and the power of the named one, and can even directly reach the trillion operations of the [Authoritative Module·Mythology]!

Have you Terrans ever seen this kind of power? Can you imagine it!!!"

As Weiss sneered, behind him, the demonized August took over the conversation with the same crazy smile, like a joking supporting actor.

“Can anyone else do this?”

His slightly rough voice was mixed with the sound of metal friction. The vines above his head twisted like branches, and faint green light flashed from the depths of his vines, like an eye peeping into the soul. "You Terrans, can you do this?
"August's mouth twisted into a sarcastic arc, and a faint green light danced between his facial features.

“Who can do this in the future?”

“Who else can do this!!!”

The holy angel surrounded by a triple halo did not answer immediately.

He stood in a charred area torn apart by blasphemous power, his golden eyes staring quietly at the two demonized opponents who were shouting madly in front of him.

The holy aura emanating from the crown stands out particularly in this blasphemous area, as if isolating all the haze outside.

Xia Xiu stood in the center of the battlefield, the breeze ruffling his blond hair, a playful gleam in his golden eyes.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, with an elusive smile.

His eyes moved between Weiss and August, and he spoke slowly. His voice was like a whisper in the early morning, but it also carried a sense of oppression that could not be ignored.

“It was a great show.”

Xia Xiu tilted his head slightly, with a barely perceptible hint of teasing in his tone.

"It allowed me to see how powerful the original devil is."

Weiss and August were panting, but they still stared at Xia Xiu, their eyes full of hatred and obsession.

However, the blond young man's expression suddenly changed, the smile on his lips turned a little colder, and his voice also became colder.

"However, this level of power——"

He paused, then sneered, his tone revealing undisguised sarcasm.

“It’s not worth showing off at all.”

As he finished speaking, the triple halo behind him suddenly began to spin at high speed, emitting a blindingly hot light.

"Buzz buzz-"

The halo made a roaring sound like an engine as it rotated, and the blazing white light instantly filled the entire battlefield.

At the same time, purple-gold runes appeared on the edge of the halo. As the runes flowed, the entire space seemed to become heavy, and the air was filled with hot energy fluctuations.

The lineage system interface then appeared in Xia Xiu's retina.

------

Crown Blessing has been activated

Current Ethereum floating point computing efficiency: 1×10/second (hundreds of billions)
Feature enhancement: comprehensively improve combat accuracy, output efficiency, and magic calculation speed
Field feedback: The influence of the hostile field has been completely blocked

Crown Effect: The interference range of the aura is expanded, continuously suppressing the enemy's authority.

------

The radiance of the halo shone on the faces of Weiss and August. They could feel the overwhelming power sweeping over them. The blasphemous power that had been expanding aimlessly was frightened by the light of this power.

Xia Xiu slightly raised the wand in his hand, and the blazing light gathered along with his movement.

His tone was calm, but it carried a suffocating majesty, as if every word was declaring an irreversible judgment.

"Now, it's my turn to perform."

boom----

[Crown Blessing Metatron] instantly appeared in front of August.

August's roots frantically penetrated into the ground, trying to absorb energy from the earth. Countless vines emerged from the ground, trying to bind the six-winged angel of light hanging high in the air.

However, Metatron's flaming giant sword drew an arc in the air, and the blazing flames almost dyed the entire battlefield with a red glow.

The moment the vines touched the sword light, they turned into charred ashes, leaving no room for resistance.

[Residual Fire Great Sword·Slash——]
The angel's six pairs of light particle wings spread out, and a bright light that was impossible to look directly at burst out from its body.

August's [Out of Control Tree] suddenly let out a low roar, and the fruit swelled and burst. A large number of strange seeds gushed out, trying to occupy space and surround the Angel of Light.

However, before the seeds could get close, they turned into nothingness in the burning sword light.

"combustion--"

"Purify——"

The giant flaming sword chopped down heavily, heading straight for August's body. Wherever the sword light passed, the ground cracked and distorted waves floated in the air due to the high temperature.

August waved his vine-like arms to try to resist, but his branches were instantly burned off by the giant sword, and wood chips and flames intertwined into charred embers that scattered all around.

His "eyes" that were glowing green flickered violently in the firelight and emitted a sharp hissing sound.

On the other side, Sisyphus' fist suddenly hit the half-human, half-snake Weiss.

Every time he punched, [∞] symbols appeared around him like bubbles.

These Möbius symbols bombard the enemy with the force of a landslide or tsunami.

Weiss tried to wrap his fist with a whip, and the whip transformed from a group of snakes attacked Sisyphus like a living thing. However, the purple-gold light on the fist was like an invisible barrier, and the whip was shattered into countless sparks the moment it touched Sisyphus.

Whis roared and swept his tail towards Sisyphus, trying to knock the incarnation down from the air.

However, Sisyphus' body was as indestructible as a sculpture. He punched out again, smashing Weiss into the ground with one punch, and a deep pit was blasted out on the ground. Every heavy blow was a complete crushing of Weiss's body.

Then, he suddenly jumped down from the air, and his knee smashed into Weiss's snake body like a meteorite. Accompanied by a huge shock wave, Weiss's body twisted in pain, and several deep cracks were cracked on the ground.

Xia Xiu stood in the center of the battlefield. The triple halo rotated at an increasingly crazy speed, and the white jade-like light illuminated the entire battlefield.

His golden eyes flashed with a pressure as great as the sun, and that overwhelming force was continuously transmitted to the two incarnations through the halo.

Weiss's snake whip began to grow weaker and weaker, and August's vines stopped growing and quickly withered.

The entire battlefield was completely shrouded in Xia Xiu's aura. The [Ether floating-point computing efficiency] of hundreds of billions per second was like an irresistible torrent, severely suppressing the two demonized members of the Kailasel family.

All their attacks turned into meaningless struggles, like futile grains of sand, easily crushed by the powerful force released by Xia Xiu's halo.

Weiss's roar gradually turned into a scream, and August's dark green "eyes" that were originally glaring at Xia Xiu began to show a light of despair.

"The game is over."

Xia Xiu spoke calmly, his voice like the bell of judgment, announcing the fate of the two.

On the battlefield, Metatron raised the giant flaming sword in his hand high, and the blazing light directly tore through the shadow cast by the "Out of Control Tree".

[Sisyphus] suddenly took a step forward, the ground cracked, and his fist blasted towards Weiss' chest like thunder.

This punch was filled with pure destructive power, smashing Weiss's snake-like body into the ground.
