Betrayed by the Succubus, I Raise a Twelve-winged Angel-Chapter 246: The Last Material, Ghost Core!

Amidst the bloody smoke, Lilith’s proud figure gradually became clear.

In front of her, the Blood Long Spear was deeply embedded in the grotesque head of the Nine-Hells Centipede King, its tail still slightly trembling.

The next moment.

"Boom——!!!"

Accompanied by a thunderous crash, the colossal body over a hundred meters long collapsed, raising a dust cloud that blotted out the sky.

The King-level Vicious Beast that had once instilled terror in countless races now lay silent like a crumbled mountain.

This also meant...

One of the four King-level Vicious Beasts, the Nine-Hells Centipede King...

had fallen!

And at this moment, Lilith was looking at the fallen Nine-Hells Centipede King, a glimmer of contemplation in her eyes.

After slaying this Nine-Hells Centipede King, she suddenly realized...

that she wasn’t as eager to restore her power and return to Totem Level as she thought.

It seemed that in Aster Grant’s hands....

even though her power was only at the Half-step Totem Level, it was no different from the Totem Level.

Moreover...

there was a particularly crucial point.

If she were contracted by Aster Grant, she could follow him to break through and ascend to Totem Level again.

And through this method...

it seemed she could once more gain an opportunity to comprehensively understand the laws.

Crossing from Monarch Level to Totem Level...

Heaven and Earth would bestow an opportunity to comprehend a law.

And since she had already comprehended the Blood Law, if she comprehended it again...

Even the most conservative estimate would say that her mastery of the Blood Law would reach new heights.

And, more likely...

Lilith subconsciously placed a hand on her chest, sensing a long-lost passion.

Could she seize this chance to touch upon a second law?

Once this notion surfaced, it spread through her heart like wildfire.

Her gaze slowly became determined.

She had to become Aster Grant’s Contracted Beast!

However, a harsh reality immediately surfaced in her mind:

Aster Grant’s current contract quota was already full.

Although he’d gain new slots after breaking through Monarch Level...

What if it wasn’t her turn by then?

No way!

Her scarlet pupils flashed with anxiety.

She had to prioritize contracting with Aster Grant!

Meanwhile, at the edge of the battlefield, a streak of eerie Demonic Qi was silently writhing.

This was a newborn Demon Clan formed by the remnants of the Demon Clan souls that Lilith had previously slain, its strength barely reaching Totem Level.

Yet at this moment...

it was holding its breath, stealthily edging toward the outskirts, not daring to leak a single trace of Demonic Qi.

Although it was formed from Demonic Qi, however...

it possessed the memories of the Demon Clan from which it originated.

Thus, it knew clearer than anyone:

The King-level Vicious Beast that had fallen was a presence it had once looked up to!

But even with such formidable strength, it had fallen to that Blood Clan member.

And it...

its current strength was only barely at Totem Level.

Such strength, in the hands of that Blood Clan member, was perhaps just a casual cleanup.

"I must escape..."

The newborn Demon Clan roared internally.

As long as it could escape this battlefield and absorb enough Demonic Qi back in the Demon Clan’s territory...

Someday, it vowed to personally tear apart that Blood Clan member!

But just as it was about to reach the edge of the battlefield...

"Where do you think you’re going?"

Lilith’s figure appeared behind the Demonic Qi like a phantom, arms crossed, her scarlet eyes full of mockery.

Demonic Qi could form new Demon Clans!

Lilith naturally knew this.

Earlier, the situation was too urgent, so she dealt with the Nine-Hells Centipede King first.

But she hadn’t forgotten this mass of Demonic Qi.

"Trying to escape, did you ask for my permission?"

A cold smile hung on Lilith’s face.

Upon hearing Lilith’s voice, the Demonic Qi surged frantically, instantly coalescing into an ugly Demon Clan form.

It merged the features of the previous Demon Clan group, looking incredibly hideous.

Lilith furrowed her brow upon seeing this Demon Clan.

So ugly!

An eyesore!

And seeing this, the Demon Clan cowardly threatened:

"Blood Clan! If we truly engage, it’ll just end in mutual destruction! Why don’t we both take a step back..."

But...

"Mutual destruction?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Lilith seemed to hear the biggest joke ever, her lips curling into a brutal arc.

Such trash dared?

Elegantly raising her hand, Lilith encompassed the Demon Clan within the Blood Domain.

At this moment, after absorbing all the blood of the Nine-Hells Centipede King, her power was at its peak.

Now, let alone a newly entered Totem One Turn chicken-level Demon Clan.

Even against a Totem Two Turn Demon God, Lilith had the confidence to take it on!

"Destroy!"

With her fingers closing, the entire domain suddenly collapsed into a singularity, then utterly vanished.

The poor Demon Clan couldn’t even scream before it turned to nothingness.

Once Demonic Qi was completely purified, it could never regroup.

And all this pure energy was absorbed by the Divine Pattern on Aster Grant’s forehead.

"Buzz——"

The Divine Pattern suddenly radiated a dazzling golden light, leaving Aster Grant feeling a surge of power flooding through his body.

At this moment, each attribute experienced a qualitative leap!

[Aster Grant]

[Level: Commander Tier Nine]

[Talent: Sovereign, Soul-devouring]

[Beastbond: Lazuli, Vera, Veridia, Scarlett, Sally, Elara Silverwood]

[Special State: Human Race’s Favor]

[Divine Pattern: 2]

[Contract Quota: 5/5]

[Power: 40000→60000]

[Constitution: 40000→60000]

[Spiritual: 40000→60000]

[Speed: 40000→60000]

[Domain: Emperor’s Might, Absolute Forbidden Domain]

Under the influence of the Divine Pattern, Aster Grant’s attributes finally reached the peak of Commander Level.

This also meant Aster Grant was just one step away from breaking through to Monarch Level!

The next step was to raise Veridia’s talent to Myth Nine Stars.

As for Scarlett...

Aster Grant let out a soft sigh.

Not a single material had been found...

It was impossible to help her elevate to Myth Nine Stars.

And finding all of Scarlett’s materials to upgrade her to Monarch Level would waste too much time.

It wasn’t worth it!

Therefore, Aster Grant had already made a decision.

After finding the Ghost Core and helping Veridia enhance her talent, he would break through to Monarch Level.

And at this moment...

"Here, found inside the Nine-Hells Centipede King."

"You’re pretty lucky."

Lilith suddenly appeared before him, two resplendent Crystal Cores resting in her fair palm.

Aster Grant’s gaze shifted over.

[Fierce Beast Blood Core]

[Quality: Myth]

[Function: Can help the Blood Clan enhance talent]

[Ghost Core]

[Quality: Myth]

[Function: Can help the Ghost Race enhance talent]

Upon seeing these two materials, Aster Grant was somewhat taken aback.

He could understand the presence of the Fierce Beast Blood Core.

But how could there be a Ghost Core in the body of the Nine-Hells Centipede King?

Perhaps seeing Aster Grant’s confusion, Lilith explained:

"This King-level Vicious Beast’s habitat was near the Ghost Race. Perhaps some Ghost Race member carrying a Ghost Core was swallowed by this King-level Vicious Beast."

Aster Grant nodded, finding this explanation reasonable.

Soon his gaze turned fervent.

Now the three materials needed for Veridia’s advancement...

Nether Ghost Stone, Extreme Ghost Qi, Ghost Core—all had come together by chance!

This meant...

The Myth Nine Stars Veridia was about to be born!

And he was about to break through to Monarch Level!
