Chapter 85:King of Chaos

The heavens trembled.

Three monstrous auras collided above the shattered mountains.

Golden dragon qi.

Pitch-black demonic qi.

Crimson killing intent.

The pressure alone flattened forests for miles.

The disciples watching from the distance could barely remain standing.

"This..."

"...isn't a battle between humans anymore."

"It's a fight between monsters."

The Great Elder Dragon rested his blade against his shoulder.

"So."

"The rat finally came."

Across from him, the Spear Demon twirled his gigantic spear before slamming its butt into the ground.

"I was wondering how long you'd keep hiding."

Lucifer smiled.

One hand remained inside his pocket.

The bamboo stick lazily hung from his mouth.

"Hiding?"

"I was waiting."

"For both of you to get tired."

The Dragon Elder laughed.

"Still as arrogant as ever."

The Spear Demon pointed his spear toward Lucifer.

"Today..."

"I'll personally erase your name from Murim."

Lucifer slowly drew Chirin.

The black sword hummed.

"So many people have said that."

"They're all dead."

The three disappeared.

BOOM!!

The mountain exploded.

No one saw who moved first.

Only three streaks of light repeatedly collided across the battlefield.

Sword.

Blade.

Spear.

Every clash created shockwaves that ripped valleys apart.

"Dragon Sky Rend!"

The Great Elder thrust his Blade.

A gigantic azure dragon burst forward.

Lucifer's crimson eyes glowed.

Sin of Envy.

The trajectory appeared before him.

He sidestepped by a hair.

The dragon continued into a mountain.

The entire peak disappeared.

The Spear Demon attacked immediately afterward.

"Hell Breaking Spear!"

Thousands of spear images rained from above.

Lucifer grinned.

"Sin of Sloth."

Time seemed to slow.

His body danced between countless attacks with impossible precision.

Each spear missed by mere centimeters.

The watching disciples couldn't even breathe.

"He's..."

"...walking through it."

The Spear Demon roared.

"Fight properly!"

Lucifer finally countered.

"Cleave."

A black slash split the battlefield.

The Dragon Elder intercepted it.

"Dragon Wall."

Golden scales formed before him.

The slash shattered the scales—

But not before losing enough power for the elder to survive.

The Dragon Elder smiled.

"You've grown."

"But not enough."

His aura erupted.

The gigantic Dharmic Dragon appeared behind him.

The Spear Demon laughed.

"If you're using yours..."

"...then so am I."

A colossal black warrior materialized behind him, holding an enormous spear.

Two Dharmic Bodies.

Both towering like mountains.

Lucifer looked very small before them.

"For the first time..."

Chirin muttered.

"...you're actually cornered."

Lucifer smiled.

"Now it's getting fun."

The two giants attacked together.

The battlefield disappeared beneath endless explosions.

Lucifer activated everything.

Sin of Greed.

Sin of Envy.

Sin of Sloth.

Sin of Lust.

Sin of Gluttony.

His speed doubled.

His perception sharpened.

His strength multiplied.

His injuries regenerated.

Even then...

He couldn't keep up.

A spear struck his shoulder.

Another grazed his ribs.

His armor absorbed one fatal strike before falling dormant.

The thirty-day protection had already been spent.

Blood dripped from his lips.

For the first time in a long while—

Lucifer laughed.

"Excellent."

Hours passed.

The mountain range no longer existed.

Both elders breathed heavily.

Lucifer wasn't much better.

All three stood covered in dust and blood.

The Dragon Elder narrowed his eyes.

"You're finally running out of qi."

Lucifer looked down at his trembling hand.

"...Yeah."

"I am."

Then...

A familiar voice echoed inside his mind.

Lucifer slowly looked up.

His smile became terrifying.

"...Round two."

He cut his own palm.

Blood floated into the air.

One drop.

Ten.

Hundreds.

Thousands.

The blood expanded.

Bodies began taking shape.

One clone.

Five.

Twenty.

Fifty.

A hundred crimson Lucifers stood across the battlefield.

The Dragon Elder's expression changed.

"...Impossible."

The Spear Demon tightened his grip.

"They're..."

"...all real?"

Every clone smiled.

"Kill them."

The battlefield erupted again.

Every clone wielded Blood Manipulation.

Blood Chains burst from beneath the earth.

Blood Spears rained from above.

Blood Blades circled through the sky.

The Dragon Elder destroyed dozens.

The Spear Demon shattered even more.

But every destroyed clone became fresh blood—

Which created another clone.

Their numbers never decreased.

The Dragon Elder roared.

"Destroy the original!"

But...

Which one was the original?

Every Lucifer possessed identical qi.

Identical killing intent.

Even Demonic Eyes couldn't distinguish them.

The Spear Demon suddenly found crimson chains wrapping around his Dharmic Body.

"What?!"

Another hundred chains followed.

Then another.

Then another.

"Blood Prison."

His movements slowed.

At the same moment—

The Dragon Elder pierced thirty clones.

Too late.

They exploded into crimson mist.

"Blood Burst."

The explosion staggered even his Dharmic Body.

The real Lucifer appeared behind him.

"Cleave."

The Dragon Elder barely blocked.

"Dismantle."

Another slash followed.

"Severance."

A third attack struck immediately afterward.

His defense finally shattered.

The Dragon Elder crashed through three mountains.

The Spear Demon finally broke free.

"You insect!"

He gathered every remaining ounce of qi.

His Dharmic Body expanded one final time.

"Heaven Shattering Spear!"

At the same time—

The Dragon Elder rose again.

"Azure Dragon's Final Descent!"

Both ultimate techniques descended together.

Lucifer stood alone.

He closed his eyes.

Every Blood Clone raised its sword.

Every clone activated every Sin they possessed.

A sea of crimson surrounded the battlefield.

Lucifer smiled.

"Blood Manipulation."

"Infinite Blood Blade Art."

The sky disappeared.

Millions of crimson blades filled the heavens.

"...Commence."

Every blade descended simultaneously.

The collision illuminated the entire region.

No one could look directly at it.

The explosion lasted several minutes.

Then...

Silence.

Dust slowly settled.

One figure remained standing.

Lucifer.

His clothes were torn.

Blood covered half his body.

He breathed heavily.

Behind him...

Millions of blood swords slowly dissolved.

Before him...

The Dragon Elder knelt.

The Spear Demon did the same.

Both looked up one last time.

Lucifer quietly raised Chirin.

"You both fought well."

One swing.

Darkness.

The battlefield fell silent.

Sin of Gluttony

Activated.

Crimson energy engulfed both defeated masters.

Their cultivation.

Martial arts.

Qi.

Life force.

Everything flowed into Lucifer.

The pressure around him exploded.

The clouds above split apart.

Lightning descended without end.

His cultivation surged wildly.

Lucifer slowly looked over the ruined battlefield.

The mountains had vanished.

The rivers had changed course.

Even the sky still bore the scars of their clash.

He smiled.

"...Now..."

"...who's next?"
