Chapter 190 The Party Begins
"Bull demon fist first form!"
"Demonic launch!"
Roaring at the top of his lungs, the surrounding abyss aura began to riot making all eyes focus on him at the moment
However, even if all eyes where on him, their current emotions were currently vastly different
Ginoress the closest to Baphomet and the one most affected by the sudden change in abyss aura was stunned
Stunned, shocked as well as in disbelief due to the power being displayed by him at the moment
Just looking at that power behind that fist, Ginoress estimated it was somewhere around the abyss demon duke level
Just thinking of this, she couldn't help but shiver
Abyssal minion, abyss lower demon, abyss demon, abyss higher demon, abyss demon lord, abyss demon duke, abyss demon prince, and finally the almighty abyss demon God
From the lowest to the highest, demons in the abyss can be classified into these categories
With the strength gap between each stage increasing at a geometric rate making things like leapfrogging challenges here almost impossible
However almost, as during rare occasions it has been recorded feats of abyss demon lord's fending off dukes before in their home ground.
And as for the abyss demon generals, these are not within the same category as their power is directly bestowed by the Demon gods
Due to that, their power can't be measured by the conventional abyss demon system method
However, even at that, the weakest generals all seemed to possess a minimum of duke-level strength making them feared wherever they went
Now seeing Baphomet who was supposed to have demon lord level strength suddenly display duke level
Ginoress even began to wonder if this bull-headed idiot could be one of the rare classes in history
But after thinking about it for a while, she quickly denied these thoughts.
After all, if anything at all, just like her earlier suspicion it is most likely that Baphomet has some sort of big secret
Thinking of this, she decided to tell her lord as soon as her mission had been completed.
I'm fact, it wasn't only Ginoress who was shocked by Baphomet's action just now as the army behind him was literally studded in their tracks
Filled with excitement from witnessing the Strength of their great leader, the minions behind him were filled with ecstasy
While Elric who was still high up on the mountain, sensing the sudden riot in abyss aura narrowed his eyes
*This level of strength was at a level much stronger than me*
*If anything, just the breath behind this power should be alone to shake me to powder*
However although Elric thought so, there was not one ounce of fear on his face, rather he looked a bit excited imaging when he would reach such a level of power
Thankfully, thanks to his current speed of improvement Elric thought such a thing wouldn't be too far away.
And with that, Baphomet successfully launched his attack into the sky
*Booom!"
With the release of his fist, a faint hand created of abyss aura condensed in the air wiping out all the lava drops that came from the air
Not only that, under the powerful destruction power of behind the faint fist, in one hit, it completely shattered the magic spells rendering Elric's spells useless
*Bang!*
Like a glass cup shattering into many shards, under Baphomet's punch the castle completely shattered into many shards before completely disappearing
"Haha human, is that all you got!" Laughed Baphomet
Watching his masterpiece, Baphomet couldn't help but be satisfied with the effect of his punch
And to make things better, with the explosion of the circle the lava had completely stopped falling
However, even with all this Elric still had a nonchalant expression on his face
"Hey bullhead, if you're done shouting why don't you take a look behind you"
Using mana to transmit his voice, Elric couldn't help a sly smile on his face.
Although the spell had been interrupted, its purpose had already been achieved
Thanks to the spell, a deep river of lava had already formed directly behind Baphomet and his group making their retreat almost impossible
Not only that, the lava itself had resulted in various injuries in Baphomet group both minor and major resulting in an overall decrease in strength
Just thinking of this, Elric was completely satisfied with the effects of the spell, after all, he never planned on killing all of them in the first place.
So now that step one of his plans had been implemented, it was time for step two
"Oh and bullhead, if you're coming for me then I think you should hurry up since the others are on their way already"
"Afterall, who would want the legendary blood ruby"
Saying this, stood up from the mountain and headed deeper into death valley
"Damn! Who in the abyss does this human think he is!"
Watching Elric leave with a smile on his face Baphomet's anger was about to go through the roof
Just like Elric said, he had already noticed the presence of a multitude of demons heading toward this area now
Not to mention that he even sensed dukes among them, and as for princes he wasn't sure, after all, they were way above his level.
Adding to the fact that his exit had already been blocked off by Elric, Baphomet realised that he had already unknowingly been played right into Elric's palm
Given the current situation, apart from heading deeper into death valley, another choice would be almost akin to suicide
Since after encountering other demons would almost always lead to a fight since they wouldn't want to share their loot
Baphomet was sure that he and the rest of the group would be slaughtered and attacked by whichever group of abyss demons they met
And even though they managed to survive the onslaught, they still couldn't retreat due to their exit being blocked and could only still head forward.
Realising this, although unwilling to be played around, Baphomet still led the rest of the group into Death Valley
*Hopefully thanks to this head start I don't encounter any demons while on the way*
