Suhlen was dumbfounded. Just now, when he was about to kill the Balor in front of him, a flash of light fell from the sky and turned into silver chains that trapped the Balor.
Before he could recover, another red light descended. The Balor struggled to break free from the shackles. The silver chain was constantly broken, but it would recover in the next second. The red light fell, and the power of the Balor was quickly extracted.
"Sh * t, someone wants to kill me!" Seeing the red light, Suhlen's first reaction was to kill the Balor. Just as he was about to do it, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. The red light was seizing the power of the Balor. This situation suddenly reminded him of an organization, the Church of the Soul Snatchers.
The Soul Snatcher Church was also an evil cult. However, this cult was very different from other evil cults. The Fallen and the followers of evil gods sacrificed evil gods and demons in exchange for power. However, although the Soul Snatcher Church also sacrificed evil gods and demons, their goal wasn't the power bestowed by evil gods.
Their goal was to seize all the power owned by the evil gods or demons. Compared to the evil gods, these people of the Church of the Soul Snatchers were crazier. Usually, they would disguise themselves as fallen or evil gods and lure ordinary people to fall and make them believe in evil gods or demons.
They were hidden in the dark, but they were constantly making small moves in the dark. The origin of the Church of the Soul Snatchers was said to date back to the era before the Arcane Empire. Some arcanists wanted to seize the power of the gods and developed various methods. Later, a great arcanist invented the spell of ascension. Later, he tried to become a god, but he was directly blown up by the divine power and all kinds of information.
After this incident, many arcanists gave up on researching ways to seize the power of the gods. However, there were also some who believed that the reason why the Investiture of the Gods failed was because the human body could not withstand so much divine power.
Those people wanted to increase the strength of the human body so that the human body could contain more divine power. However, they soon discovered that there was a limit to the improvement of the physical body, and the further they improved, the more difficult it became. Moreover, even if they improved to the limit, the human body could not contain the power of so many gods. Later on, some people proposed to seize the power of evil gods or demons. Later on, because of some turmoil, this sect disappeared.
Of course, it was said that they had disappeared without a trace. In fact, these people had just hidden themselves even deeper. Spirit Snatching had succeeded in history, but the side effects were huge. Evil Gods and demons were different from humans. They had a strong negative energy. Many times, they would directly degenerate into Evil Gods or demons. Suhlen knew about this cult because he had found it in Hathaway's library some time ago.
Suhlen did not know how the Soul Snatcher Church had managed to steal the Balor's power, but he figured it had something to do with the sacrifices they had made. The Balor was probably the work of the Soul Snatcher Church.
A cold light flashed in Suhlen's eyes. These people dared to steal the Soul Snatcher Church's power.
"Chris!" Suhlen called the little succubus through the telepathic link.
"Master, I'm here!" Chris's voice came.
"Come with me to take care of those guys who are here to take advantage of the situation!"
It didn't take long for Su Lun to find the location of those people on the map. His figure flashed and appeared beside Chrissy. Although Su Lun was furious that the Soul Snatchers had come to steal his kill, it was also an opportunity. Perhaps he could get a lot of benefits this time.
"Let's go!" Suhlen grabbed Chris's hand, and a flash of light rose from them. The next second, the two of them appeared above a runic circle.
"Who is it!"
The energy fluctuations of the teleportation spell immediately alerted the Soul Snatchers below. They immediately shouted when Suhlen and Chris appeared.
Su Lun ignored them and turned his head to look at the coquettish priestess who was standing in another rune circle and preparing to absorb the power of the Balor.
"This power is familiar!"
"This is the power of a demon!"
"As expected, the demon's descent this time is caused by you Soul Snatchers!"
Suhlen immediately sensed the aura of these people. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Group Charm!"
The Soul Snatchers who were about to attack suddenly froze. They then looked at Chris with mesmerized eyes.
"Evil Spirit!"
"Blasphemous Word!"
At that moment, two evil forces appeared in an instant. Lightning flashed on Suhlen's body, dispelling the evil force field around him.
The priestess that had been standing in the other runic array also disappeared. Hathaway's Group Charm hadn't been able to control her.
A dark shadow suddenly flew over. Su Lun's figure disappeared in an instant, and then appeared near the priestess.
"Ambush!"
"Eat my spear!"
The dazzling lightning suddenly released a powerful force and pierced through the priestess' body. Endless lightning exploded from her body. The priestess' body stiffened. The negative energy in her body was instantly purified by the lightning. Countless indistinct evil spirits entangled together flew out of her body. At the same time, her beautiful face quickly aged.
Her body quickly lost water and life force. In just a few seconds, she turned into an old woman with dry and coarse skin and an old face. This was her original appearance. Her previous appearance was just a forced transformation with the help of magic. After the evil energy in her body was purified, she instantly returned to her original appearance.
After losing her magic and being severely injured, her life came to an end. Her body tilted and fell to the ground.
"Chris, quickly!" Suhlen put away his Storm War Halberd and pulled Chris to the altar where the priestess had been standing.
"Quickly stand there and absorb the power!" Suhlen said, pointing at the runic circle.
"Okay!" Chris naturally saw the energy contained in it. Without hesitation, her body flashed and instantly stood on it.
"By the way, order the disciples of the Soul Snatchers to cast spells with all their might and trap the Balor!"
Chris could no longer speak at this time. She could only nod to show that she understood and absorbed the power of the Balor with all her might. Balors and succubi were both Tanar 'ri demons. Although they had chosen different directions during the evolution process, their energy was essentially the same.
The energy of the Balor might be a drug to humans. Absorbing it would turn a human into a demon, but it was a good tonic for demons. Chris absorbed the energy of the Balor without any discomfort at all.
Suhlen did not stay there. With a flash of light, he appeared near the Balor again. At this time, the Balor looked a little miserable. In the battle just now, it was injured by Suhlen and then ambushed by the Soul Snatchers. Countless chains wrapped around it, making it unable to break free. Now, the energy in its body was constantly being extracted. If this continued, it would be the time of its death when all the energy in its body was taken away.
However, the chains had suddenly broken, allowing the Balor to grab them a few times. In order to survive, the Balor erupted with a strong will to live. It grabbed the many chains wrapped around its body and tried to tear them all apart, but at that moment, a playful voice came from the sky.
"Still want to run?"
In the next second, Suhlen's figure instantly rushed down, the Storm War Halberd in his hand sweeping over with boundless lightning, knocking the Balor back.
In order to let Chris absorb the energy of the Balor, Suhlen did not kill it. With Suhlen blocking it, the Balor had lost all hope of escaping. Under the extraction of the Soul Snatching Circle, its energy was constantly being absorbed.
With Suhlen's protection, the Soul Snatching Circle operated quickly, constantly extracting the energy of the Balor and sending it into Chris's body. As the energy absorbed increased, Chris's aura became stronger and stronger. She was originally a Class 4 Elite Succubus, but now, she quickly reached the peak.
A lot of energy was needed to break through to the Legend rank, but it was not a problem for Chris at all. A Legend rank Balor was more than enough for her to advance.
Soon, more and more energy was extracted. As the Balor's energy decreased, the Soul Snatching Circle's energy absorption speed also increased.
Finally, a powerful energy was extracted, and the flames on the Balor's body disappeared. Its original Legend rank aura also completely dissipated. At the same time, Chris's stagnant aura began to rise again. This time, she directly broke through the shackles of the Legend rank and became a Legend rank Demon.
After becoming a Legend rank Demon, Chris's strength did not stop. Instead, it continued to increase, but the speed of increase became even slower. Finally, the energy of the Balor was completely drained by the Soul Snatching Circle, and Chris absorbed all the energy.
After losing all its energy, the Balor's life came to an end. The countless silver chains that originally bound it turned into specks of light at this moment, and the Balor was blown by the wind and turned into a pile of ashes, leaving only the Beheading Sword and Flame Whip.
A breeze blew, and the Beheading Sword and Flame Whip flew directly into Suhlen's hands. As a Legend rank Demon, the weapons used by the Balor were naturally not ordinary. The main material of the Beheading Sword was Abyss Magic Steel, while the Flame Whip was made of Abyss Magic Steel mixed with the tendons of the Abyssal Fire Lizard. Although the two items were not Legend rank, the materials were very good.
The main reason was that the Abyssal Demon's craftsmanship was too rough. If these things were given to Hathaway, together with some other materials, it would not be difficult for them to become Legend rank equipment. It just so happened that Chris still lacked a weapon to advance to Legend rank.
