Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy
Chapter 790: The Relics

"Aaack!" The Demon Lord's Avatar cried in pain after being hit by Kyle's powerful attacks!

As soon as he was hit by the Holy Smite and the Divine Lightning, he immediately removed one of his limiters in order to endure the pain!

His Dark Aura was replenished and was replaced by a more violent Demonic Essence!

However, Kyle was not finished yet. He was merely testing the power of the Demon Lord!

Drawing upon the depths of his Celestial Arts' Spell Models, he invoked one of the spells he extracted from a Truel Immortal, Mind Break, a technique that targeted the very core of his target's consciousness.

With a focused intensity, Kyle activated this Spell as it invaded the depths of Bael's mind, seeking to shatter the Demon Lord's will and bring him to his knees!

As the force of Divinity brought by the Mind Break Spell enveloped Bael's being, a primal scream of anguish echoed through the battlefield, reverberating with the echoes of torment and despair.

To Kyle's surprise, this Avatar of the Demon didn't have a strong protection in his mind!

"Aahh!"

The Demon Lord writhed in agony, his mind assailed by visions of his darkest fears and deepest insecurities, laid bare before the searing light of Kyle's divine power.

Seeing such a rare opportunity, Kyle pressed on, his gaze never left the Demon Lord as he sought to break through his defenses and deliver a decisive blow that would tip the scales of the battle in favor of the forces of light, it was his Divine Extraction!

Just now, he actually tried using it on the Demon Lord's Avatar, but it failed!

He believed that he still had to weaken the Demon Lord in order for his Divine Extraction System to activate on him.

However, in a bold gambit to withstand the onslaught of the Mind Break Spell, the Demon Lord made a critical decision to release his third limiter, fortifying his mental defenses and rendering the Spell more bearable.

As Bael unleashed the power of his third limiter, a terrifying wave of malevolence swept across the land, shrouding the region in a suffocating Demonic Aura that twisted the very fabric of reality.

Whoom~

Kyle watched as Dark clouds coalesced overhead, swirling ominously as a black miasma seeped from the depths of Bael's being, staining the sky with tendrils of shadow that writhed and coiled like malevolent serpents.

'This is scarier than the appearance of the Death God… I guess he's really the Demon Lord's Avatar.' Kyle thought as he took a deep breath to gather his Divinity.

The air was now filled an oppressive energy, charged with the raw power of darkness as Bael's influence spread like a creeping plague, casting a shroud of fear and dread over all who felt its touch.

"Kekeke… Shadow Immortal, why don't you show that mysterious powers of yours…" Bael said, unaware that Kyle already tried but failed.

Nonetheless, as he spoke, the Demon Lord's presence loomed large. His aura was above those Seven Deadly Sins that he had fought before.

The one in front of him was definitely a harbinger of chaos and destruction that threatened to consume everything in its path.

During this time, as the Demon Lord removed his third limiter, the others also felt the changes in the continent.

Indeed! Across the continent, the Demon Saints, Demon Generals, and a myriad of Demonic Creatures sensed the awakening of their master, their hearts filled with a primal reverence and fear at the overwhelming power that radiated from the Demon Lord.

"So… Father had already made his move…" Entei, the unranked and strongest Demon Saint, looked in the direction of the Demon Lord's aura.

He couldn't help but feel excited about this.

The very earth trembled beneath their feet, echoing the tumultuous upheaval that had been unleashed upon the world.

The Demon Lord's Avatar was truly showing its might in the whole continent!

This move had, of course, threatened the many Arcanists Organizations and many of them were truly worried.

However, as soon as they realized the location where the Demon Lord was showing his might, many of them couldn't help but hope that the Demon Lord would die!

"So he really went to the Shadow Immortal's base." Lesley muttered as she felt the presence of the Demon Lord.

"Mhmmm… My favorite student probably needs help, huh…" Heinz Becker muttered as he glanced at the 'Perfect' Arcanists that he made… There were a dozen of them and they all possessed the special spells of the Malefic Branch!

He thought for a moment before he ordered them to hurry to Kyle's castle…

Elsewhere, Miya of the Church of the Lord of the Secrets, or Maya Featherstar, also decided to help Kyle even without the orders of the Church Elders. With her connection to the Lord of the Secrets, she knew that she might not be able to fight against the Demon Lord, but her newfound powers could surely change the tide of battle!

"Just hold on, Kyle…" Miya muttered.

Of course, many of Kyle's enemies, like those from the Church of the Three Paragons, wanted him to perish. However, they wanted him to at least bring the Demon Lord with him if he dies.

Nonetheless, this doesn't matter to Kyle at the moment.

Undaunted by the unfolding darkness,Kylestood firmly on the ground, his gaze focused as he called upon the might of hisCelestial Artsto combat the encroaching evil.

With a deep breath, he summoned forth a barrage of Divine Lightning that streaked across the sky, illuminating the dark clouds with bursts of blinding light that crackled and sizzled with celestial energy.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

It didn't end there.

Emboldened by the power of his spells,Kylechanneled theFiend's Wrath, a potent incantation that imbued him with otherworldly strength, bolstering his physique and aura in the face of the encroaching darkness.

"These lightning strikes only tickle me, Shadow Immortal. You have to do something better!" The Demon Lord said as he waited for Kyle to use his Extraction Powers to steal it.

He also sent a telepathy to the Time Manipulators to help him in time! If they did not do it, he threatened to kill them and aim to invade the Time Manipulator Realm!

***

On the other hand, Kyle ignored the words of the Demon Lord. Instead, he called upon hisEmber SpiritandWind Spirit, ethereal beings of fire and air that materialized at his side, ready to lend their aid in the struggle against the forces of darkness.

"Kill that Demon!" Kyle ordered as the two moved in unison, combing fire and winds spells to create a Fusion Spell!

However, this was only meant as a distraction!

With quick incantation,Kyleinvoked theMeteor Summon Spell, calling forth a cataclysmic storm of flaming meteors that hurtled towardBaelwith unstoppable force.

As soon as Bael destroyed the attacks of the two Elemental Spirits, he saw the sky blazed with fiery arcs as the meteors descended upon him!

Bael frowned a little as he noticed the Divinity imbued on these meteors… Kyle must've used a lot!

Nonetheless, he didn't panic.

Boom!

The meteor descended, shattering the ground with earth-

shaking impacts that sent shockwaves rippling through the battlefield.

A moment of silence occurred as Kyle watched the area where the meteors descended. It had certainly changed the terrain of the surroundings.

"That wasn't enough to kill you. Come out now." Kyle said as a black miasma gathered at the center of the crater…

It was none other than Bael, the Demon Lord.

"Kekeke… Not bad… It must've consumed a quarter of your Divinity." Bael said.

Asheemerged from the devastating impact of the meteors, his form was shrouded in the remnants of the cataclysmic event, only a small fraction of his Demonic Aura had dissipated, leaving him still a formidable and terrifying presence on the battlefield.

The ground around him lay in ruin, scorched and shattered by the force of the celestial onslaught… It was surely a testament to the titanic clash of powers that raged between him andKyle.

Unfazed by the relentless assault,Bael's crimson eyes gleamed with a malevolent light as he surveyed the battlefield, his gaze locking ontoKylewith a grim plan.

The remnants of the fiery meteors smoldered around him, their flames casting an eerie glow upon his darkened visage…

"This is actually refreshing for some reason…" Bael laughed as he looked at the flames.

On the other hand, Kyle wasn't idling after he summoned his meteors…

Bael glanced at Kyle and frowned…

Well, this time, Kyle was suffused with a radiant aura that pulsed with the power of theCreation Ring, theTemporal Timepiece, and theStormbringer Sword- the three precious Artifacts of the Three Paragons.

The air crackled with Divine Energy as he wielded these legendary relics!

With a swift motion,Kyleunleashed a torrent of divine energy, channeling the power of the Artifacts into a devastating attack against the Demon Lord.
