Scorching flames.
In the depths of the underground ruins, which should have been pitch-black, flames had been ignited near the passageway. The torches that had been there for an unknown period of time, as well as the lamps that were filled with oil, were all ignited automatically under some kind of power. It was said that the land where the Balor walked would burn. Although there were very few people who had seen this terrifying monster, legends about it were still circulating in the mortal world. Because in the stories of mortals, the Balor was close to the most powerful enemy!
(The challenge level was equivalent to an old red dragon, and most of the dragons that appeared in the stories of mortals were young and adult dragons.)
If one went higher.
Then one would basically need to challenge the existence of the deities.
…
The Abyss was a place of chaos and evil. There were many types of demons, and new types were born almost every day.
But there was no doubt that the true master of the Abyss was the Tanari Demons, which were the current third-generation Abyss Demons. Before them, the ruler of the Abyss was the Orbis Demons, the descendants of 'Chaos and Destruction'. They were the creations of the first batch of Chaos Demons and once ruled the Abyss for a long time.
But then, humans were born!
Before the current order had truly taken shape, the souls of dead humans began to enter the bottomless abyss. The Orbis Demons were very interested in the souls of these mortals. They used their own chaotic power to transform these souls and finally created the Tanar 'ri Demons of today. The demons created by fusing human souls were abnormally powerful and numerous. In the end, the chaotic war in the Abyss broke out. The Tanari Demons overthrew the second-generation Demon Lord and became the ruler of the Abyss.
Now.
Even the many demon lords in the Abyss were also born as Tanari Demons.
They had the spiritual power of humans!
The Balor was the best among the Tanari Demons and also a high-level demon that inherited the power of 'Chaos and Flame'. Even in the Abyss, the Balor Demons were the absolute ruling class. They stood at the top of the demon race, second only to the Demon Lord. They were one of the few high-level demons born with divinity and had always been the main force on the Abyss Battlefield. A Balor Demon was the Demon Lord in any place in the Abyss and controlled a large number of demon armies. (Note: To challenge the Balor Demons in the Abyss, one must face the demon army.)

…
The Balor.
It was a textbook monster in the Abyss. Almost any adventurer who was ready to go to the Abyss would remember the basic information of the Balor.
When Søren felt the surrounding temperature rise, a large amount of data had already appeared in his mind.
When he first went to the Abyss, the Balor was one of the monsters he paid attention to. Because if he encountered this monster, he had to know enough about it to defeat it.
It was too strong!
Challenging the Balor was not much easier than challenging a demigod.
The thirst for slaughter continued. Søren's mind did not disappear because of his transformation, but there was an extra desire to fight and kill. The Balor was the only enemy here that could satisfy his desire to kill.
Flames!
A huge shadow.
When Søren went through the dark tunnel, the light in front of him suddenly became abundant.
In front of him stood a huge monster that was burning with raging flames. It had a pair of demonic horns and a pair of wide demonic wings on its back. However, it was basically useless in this narrow underground ruin. The Balor was more than 12 feet tall and weighed more than 5,000 pounds. In its hand was a huge Abyssal Beheading Sword that was burning with raging flames. The Balor was also a high-level demon that mastered dual-wielding. Its other weapon was the level + 3 Abyssal Flame Whip.
The temperature was gradually rising.
The Balor was like a huge flame, and any creature that approached it would be incessantly burned.
However.
Just when this huge monster appeared in front of Soran, a strange silver light appeared on the legendary curved sword Icingdeath. It was as dazzling as the stars, isolating the scorching flames. At the same time, it automatically extinguished the magic flames caused by the Balor in a burst of magic aura. This legendary curved sword had killed the Balor before. After sensing the evil aura and discovering a new enemy, it even trembled slightly in Søren's hand.
The flames became a little weaker.
The raging flames on the Balor seemed to have dimmed a lot. Then a pair of heavy shackles appeared in Søren's sight. The shackles with a silver-white metallic luster bound its hands, and there seemed to be a barb piercing through its huge demon wings. It had been sealed here for a long time. Even after thousands of years, it still couldn't break free from the seal here because it was imprisoned by the great arcanists of the Arcane Empire.
"Demon? No! A human? "
The pupils of the Balor were like jumping flames. It stared at Søren who appeared in front of it and said in the ancient demon language, "A human with the aura of a slaughterer!"
"Mortal!"
"Come here, release me. I will give you everything you want! "
Søren sneered. He didn't care about the Balor's words at all because demons were untrustworthy. They didn't abide by the law of contract at all. Anyone who made a deal with a demon could be eaten by them in the end. Besides, Søren's purpose was to take its life.
An arrow on the bow!
Søren took out the Elven War Bow and directly shot an arrow at the Balor in front of him.
"Clang."
The Balor's huge beheading sword instantly blocked the arrow. At the same time, the wooden shaft of the arrow instantly burned, and even the steel arrowhead showed signs of melting. The terrible strength of a superior demon was undoubtedly revealed in an instant. Unless it was a legendary existence, it couldn't even get close to it because the body of the Balor was scorching hot. (Note: Any enemy caught by the Balor will receive 36 fire damage per second.)
The power of the seal was still there.
The furious Balor let out a roar. It took a step forward, and in an instant, the shackles shackling it appeared with a faint magic aura. Then it groaned.
The chain was connected to the wall behind it, and there was a huge nine-pointed star array on it.
There were slight traces of cracks on the surface of the array, and there were wreckage after the battle nearby. These were left behind by adventurers who had explored this place before.
The mark of the Balor on the map was also left behind by them.
"Damned mortal!"
The Balor let out a roar. The shackles that bound its hands couldn't stop it from attacking Søren. The Balor fiercely waved its flame whip and flew towards Søren in front of it.
A flame that was more than ten meters long!
The flame whip came with a whistling sound. It was as flexible as a poisonous snake and blocked all of Søren's escape routes.
"Pata!"
Søren's eyes narrowed. His figure rose into the air, and he didn't have any intention to dodge. Instead, he directly slashed at the flame whip.
A silver stream of light appeared.
The flame on the flame whip seemed to dim, and then gradually extinguished. Then the Balor shook its hand and took it back. It stared at the curved sword in Søren's hand. The flame in its eyes jumped, and it said in a deep voice, "This weapon has a disgusting aura!"
The first round of confrontation.
It seemed that both sides were probing attacks.
Although Søren saw the shackles on the Balor with his own eyes, he didn't have the slightest idea of attacking rashly.
The sealed Flame Balor was still a Flame Balor.
No matter how it was trapped in this underground ruin, its Challenge Rating of more than 21 would not lie. Søren had encountered this kind of sealed high-level demon more than once. Although they were trapped somewhere, it didn't mean that they had no fighting power. For example, even if Søren had no weapon, even if his hands were shackled, his powerful attributes and abilities could still turn him into a terrible killing machine in an instant.
The seal here had been loosened.
There were two broken pillars behind the Balor. Originally, the shackles on its hands should have been wrapped around it, but now only the barbs on its back were connected to the wall.
This allowed it to have some mobility!
Søren's mind was working quickly, thinking about ways to kill the Balor in front of him, and also calculating its danger.
Hoo!
The flame whip once again turned into a flame. The chaotic nature of the Balor made it so easy to be provoked. It shook the flame whip and wrapped it around Søren, as if it was going to catch him to its side.
Pata.
Søren jumped away again. The Balor that was chained in place had a limited attack range, so the danger to him was reduced a lot.
But!
Just as Søren jumped away from the attack, a grin appeared on the Balor's face, and it growled, "Mortal! You can't escape! "
— — "Spirit Summon!"
The evil magic aura emerged. The Balor raised its hand and pointed at Søren, and it launched its spell-like ability.
Søren's body was hit in an instant.
Immediately, a row of data appeared in front of his eyes:
"You've been attacked by the Balor's [Spirit Summon]! … "
"Slaughterer form activated! … Divine power transformed! … You're immune to this spell effect! … "
Søren landed safely.
The Balor's expression seemed to be a little unbelievable. It roared and waved the flame whip again, and at the same time, launched another spell ability toward Søren.
— — "Law: Intimidate!"
The flame whip whistled past, and the evil magic aura fell on Søren again. But this time, Søren didn't even plan to dodge. He directly resisted the spell of the Balor, and at the same time, waved his curved sword to cut the flame whip.
A data prompt appeared:
"You've been attacked by the Balor's [Law: Intimidate]! … "
"Slaughterer form activated! … Divine power transformed! … Your HP is higher than 200! … Toughness passed! … You're completely immune to the effect of this spell! … "
Søren's mouth showed a sarcastic smile.
He dared to come here to challenge the high-grade legendary Balor because he was basically immune to the opponent's control ability when he transformed into a Slaughterer. Spells like [Law: Intimidate] were very likely to be ineffective against Søren, who had a strong HP! Few of the Balor's control spells could work on him!
As if it was unbelievable, the Balor suddenly cast several spells toward Søren.
— — "Mind Control!"
Immune.
— — "Evil aura!"
Immune.
— — "Blasphemy!"
The angry Balor uttered ancient blasphemy. This evil language seemed to have some kind of powerful magic. When it spoke this depraved language, the air around was filled with evil energy. This time, Søren was no longer unmoved. His expression changed a little. It seemed that he was in pain and crazy. His body trembled involuntarily as if he was suffering great pain.
The Balor couldn't help but laugh!
The arrogant enemy in front of it finally fell under its spell, and the blasphemy had an effect on him.
"Ah!!!"
Søren let out a painful howl, and then he stood up trembling. There was a strange blood-red light in his pupils, and the violent atmosphere on his body became stronger.
He opened his mouth gently and said a blasphemy that was also full of evil.
Blasphemy!
A dense data display appeared in front of Søren's eyes in an instant.
